  Speaker 1: Five O five A fifty five k r C the
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: talk station Friday Eve.
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: And that's the way the news goes.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: It is however it goes, that's the way it goes.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Hand a very happy Friday Eve to your name is
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Brian Thomas, host to fifty five Carsee Morning Show and
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: City of Cincinnati joining in a lawsuit to challenge Ice.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Where's Christopher Smith move? And you need him to chime
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: in on a matter from Christopher on Monday with a
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: smoother But anyhow, I'll get some of that in just
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: the second here coming up at your five Carsey Morning Show.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Fast forward two hours. Congressman Warren Davidson, is the government
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: gonna shut down this weekend? Maybe?
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: Uh?
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Still patiently waiting for the Epstein files. Every time I
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: read it I reference to the Epstein files. They just
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: kind of want to crack up. What in the hell,
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: what in the wide wide world of sports is going
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: on here? When it comes to the Epstein files? Can
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: we just get it past this thing? Give us the
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: damned documents? Anyway? US Treasury Department Trump accounts. Some what
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: an amazing thing those Trump accounts are? And I know
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: the left gonna be pulling their hair out and hey,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: oh my god, yeah, Trump accounts, tup accounts. I'm gonna
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: be living with the name Trump forever. Some people are
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: criticizing Trump and his naming of buildings after himself. I
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: suppose it's his parrogative. I don't know how that works.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: If you build it yourself, you can call it whatever
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: you want. But insofar as the Trump accounts are concerned,
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: I just think this is a fantastic idea getting children
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: involved in the economy directly and in influencing their investments
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: and bringing them, you know, a bright shining light on
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: the idea of compounding interest. Yeah, this has been try before.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: You know. The other thing is all these individual companies
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: are stepping up offering also additional money for young people
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: into these accounts. So you start with one thousand dollars
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: from the federal government, and you got the likes of Blackrock,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: you know, Schwab, JP Morgan, all these other companies are
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: also offering the opportunity and contributions, you know, two hundred
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: and fifty dollars here. Some are offering you know, extra
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: money anyway, and the compounding the math has been done,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: and I don't think money money is Brian James. Only
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: problem with the math has been done. But if they
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: can't access the money until they're eighteen, good family members
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: can contribute money. I think there's some tax provisions for
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: that for donations. Philanthropic donations are very welcome. So the
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: incentive to help these children establish these what I would
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: call kind of retirement accounts, although they literally can use
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: the money for anything, but the incentive to invest and
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: the incentive to pay attention, and then the reality of compounding.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: If they don't add a dime to it, it's still
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: compounds and will end up being a lot more than
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: the one thousand dollars they had when they started. Oh look,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: I guess uh. Investment and entrepreneurial and capitalism does have
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: a tendency to work. So we'll see who else joins
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: in on that coming up. I'd see Congressman Davidson on
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: thisz also Tim Beard with the book Look Twice Staying
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: I'm Sorry, Staying Safe in an Unsafe World. Timing on
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: that sounds pretty good. That'll happen at eight oh five
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: eight twenty. Dear friend doctor j Rissover. He was integral
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: and integrally involved in the Chicken Soup cookoff he's back
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: in action. He'll be joining the program at eight twenty
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: to talk about the chicken Soup cookoff and finally, yay
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: for Thursday Slash Friday. Eve I heard me the aviation
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: expert Jay Ratliffe, He'll be on at eight thirty. Got
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: a whole bunch of topics to talk about with Jay,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: and of course this weather man. The ripple effect of
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: the delays and the problems with the weathers cannot be overstated.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: Anyhow will we get to shut down this week? And
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: apparently it comes down to the Department of Humans are
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: a DHS, Department of Homeland Security funding and all swirling
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: around this craziness going on in Minneapolis, the shootings, and
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: of course ICE activity literally anywhere, which will lead me
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: to the lawsuit that the City of Cincinnati has joined
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: in in opposition to ICE actually doing its job. Chucky
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Schumer said, they want to break off this DHS funding.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: They want some concessions, and they'd be more than willing
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: to sign off on the collective six bills if in
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: under the DHS funding they get three things. Assuming Schumer
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: speaks for all Democrats calling for an end to roving patrols,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: that's in quotes and end to roving patrols of ICE
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: agents in any US city. He wants a solution that
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: would require warrants and coordination with local and state law enforcement.
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: I read that.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: I like, Wait a second, local and state law enforcement
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: have been instructed not to cooperate. So here's Schumer's saying
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: that they wants ICE to court with a couple of
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: state and local entities that aren't willing to cooperate with ICE.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: So go ahead, make sense of that one. If you
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: can call me feel free five on three seven four
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: nine fifty eight hundred eight two three talk a pound
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: five fifty on AT and T phones. Second, he said
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: he wants enforcement accountability. Federal agents should be held to
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: the same use of force policies that apply to state
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: and local enforcement, and be held accountable when they violate
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: these rules. Not on what the layers of difficulty is
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: on that. I'd like to think that at least in
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: so far as law enforcement activity is concerned, there's probably
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: sort of a uniform standard regarding use of force. I
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: imagine it's a little more liberal in liberals areas, you know,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: less use of force or less justification for it in
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: some areas and maybe more stringent. Notice, I don't know,
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: but if they're enforcing federal law and they're held to
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: a federal law enforcement standard, it seems to me, basically
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: on maybe a supremacy clause argument, that federal will jump
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: out local. But then again, pivoting over, is this a
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: point you can concede? Fine, no problem, we will use
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: the same use of force laws that apply to state
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: and local law enforcement. Will still be in your neighborhood,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: but will be held to your standards. I don't know
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: if the standards vary so much across the fifty states
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: and the how many thousands of cities that might have
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: their own use of force policies if they have local
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: jurisdiction over such matters, if that could get very, very complicated.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: That would be involved in training the agents. All right,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: if you are in Ohio, you must do this. If
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: you are in Indiana, you must do this. You set
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: the idea or are they going to have a list
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: on their persons saying waitmen, use of force? Where am
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: I standing right now? Finally, the third concession, they want
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: reforms requiring ICE and other immigration agents to wear body cameras.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: I have no problem with that. Always carry proper state identification,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: which I don't necessarily have a problem law enforcement being
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: required to carry ID. I mean, wouldn't you demand some
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: form of identification if someone knocks on your door and said,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: I'm with law enforcement and they're not dressed in the
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: law enforcement uniform. Might in these crazy times which we live,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: one consider that if you go over to Amazon and
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: type in law enforcement uniform, you probably could find something
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: that looks reasonably like a law enforcement uniform. Yeah, that'shere
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: that ID comes important, comes in handy. So I got
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: no problem with body cameras. I have no problem with
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: requiring carrying of ID. And then there's that pesky question mark,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: what do you think about requiring these agents to remove
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: their masks? I'm a little bit torn on this one.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: I appreciate the reality on the ground for these poor
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: ice agents. And yes I said poor ice agents, because
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: you know they're say what you want about them, They're
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: doing their damn job. Their job is part of enforcing law.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: They're basically police officers. It is signed up for it.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: On a federal level. I mean, we went through the
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: whole defund the police, anti police police a bunch of
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: racist Oh, I mean, for how many years do we
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: do that? How much good that do for law enforcement
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: in any given neighborhood in this country? Worked out pretty
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: poorly for most of the left winging cities where that idea,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: in that concept, the police were all uniformly evil, resulted
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: in the destruction a lot of their cities. But this
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: is kind of a parallel thing going on with ICE.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: And if you watch some of the videos of Minneapolis,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: the Project Veritas stuff I watched just yesterday, Ah, they
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: are well oiled, these protesters, and because of modern communication
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: and there's signal connections in this well oiled machine they've
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: created in opposition to ICE. Generally speaking, across the board,
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: in a moment's time, someone will identify a vehicle and apparently,
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: do not drive an SUV if you're going through any
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: one of the areas where they are out loud on
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: the streets protesting. The mere presence of an SUV brings
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: about the assumption that you are either an ICE agent
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: or a federal government worker, or you're trying to infiltrate
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: their leftist organization so you can report on what's going
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: on inside. Oh, but the screaming, the yelling, the attacks
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: on the vehicles the throwing of frozen water bottles, and
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: then if you try to flee the area. The Project
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Veritas videos showed that they follow you. They will trail you,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: and they're calling and say, all right, we're on highway
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: whatever at this intersection. We're approaching the light. You know,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: so someone else is down the road ready to take
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: over or otherwise find the vehicle that they're following in
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: the event that the vehicle ditches the one that's currently
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: following them. You can't escape these lunatics. And as they're
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: driving around, you know, people come out from their homes
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: and into the streets and scream at them. It's so
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: well oiled. Now I will be the first person to
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: point out I didn't do the editing on the Project
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Veritas video. You can make something appear better or worse
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: depending upon when one's perspective, and what better or worse
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: means just on camp angles what you choose to include
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: in any given video. You know, all the reasons and
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: the wise and the way I A're forced to raise
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: a Johnysdia skepticism and not take what you see as
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: full face value. So that's kind of how I view
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: this Project Veritaze video. But even if a fraction of
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: the activity shown is actually happening, it's just quite revealing
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: about the level of organization. And this all springs back
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: to the comments about masks. Now, do I want to
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: live in a country with a bunch of jack booted thugs.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: I mean, imagine if we really lived in a fascist
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: country where we had Nazis running and actually kicking indoors,
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: demanding papers, you know, beating the crap out of you
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: randomly in the street. You know, real true Nazi stuff,
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: not like the made up stuff the left claims the
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: Trump administration is all about. I don't want to live
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: in that world. But then again, you know, my sister
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: was twenty five years in law enforce, worked for the
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: Cincinnat Police Department. I heard. I mean, this is long
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: before any of this kind of anti police activity was
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: going on. The abuse that she took over the years,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: beat up, a punch, spit on, name called, all of that.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: And then you move over all the psychological burden you've
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: got about law enforcement, most notably if you have to
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: work on special crimes and deal with the worst and
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: of the worst of humanity, pedophiles molesting children, and deal
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: with that psychologically The layers of psychological problems these officers
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: face are un I mean just beyond what you and
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: I who aren't involved in law enforcement can manage. Talk
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: to a law enforcement officer sometimes sit down and ask
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: them to be really honest about the stress of their world.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: I don't want that for these people that are merely
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: trying to enforce immigration laws. So that comes back to
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: the masks. You know, we live in a day of
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: facial recognition technology. Take a picture, boom, you can identify
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: the person right away. Next thing, you know, given the
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: well oiled machine these leftist protesters have in place, they're
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: at your house. You want to work, to do your job.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: You're trying to enforce the integration laws. People hate you
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: and they're following you run. Next thing you know, your
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: wife or your husband's being threatened. Your children are being threatened.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: They're coming to your church and they're yelling at your
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: crying children, and they're telling your crying children that you're
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: a Nazi. That's if they can figure out who you are.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: I'm torn on this one. What do you think? So
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: if they get the three concessions again, I think these
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: are manageable and could be ironed out then the government
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: won't shut down. Well, Congress from Davidson will give us
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: his thoughts and comments on that, coming up at seven
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: oh five. Your thoughts and comments are quite welcome. Pat
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: I see is on the phone, patter. We be happy
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: to take your call. I got to take a break.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: I'm already at seven or five eighteen fifty five KC
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: detalk station local radio. Isn't just happy Friday e Brian
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: Thomas inviting phone calls. Got more to talk about five
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: on three seven four nine fifty two three talking has promised,
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: So I'm going to take paths call right out of
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: the gay path. Thanks for calling. Welcome.
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: Oh and first of all, I'm one of everybody needs
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: to be praying for the children and pray for our
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: police and our firefighters.
• 13:02
  Speaker 6: Are our guys.
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: What I want to talk to you about I heard
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: yesterday because I always blame Soros.
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: When you hear about money.
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: But yesterday on Hannity Show, Bill Rally was on. He said,
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: like an investigative reporter and historian, he hasn't said there
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: is a fellow who lives in Beijing's must be a billionaire.
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: He is sending money to a five oho one fee
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: here in this country, and apparently this money that he
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: is sending is to pay these protesters.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Sure and please, I said, sure, one of a whole bunch.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, they keep revealing more and more of these
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: left wing organizations and the source of where all the
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: money comes from. Quite often. I can't get to a
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: deep dive on that because it would take like an
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: entire entire hour of radio to get through all of
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: the tails, the flow charts and the lines of where
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: this money goes and how it bounces around all over
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: the place without question. Boiled down point, there are countries, billionaires, individuals,
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: and well organized left wing groups that collect money and
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: fund these operations. Some of that money comes from you,
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: the taxpayer, federal tax dollars going to non governmental organizations who,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: many of these flow sharts point out, are a bunch
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: of left wing nut case socialist slash Marxist perpetuators of propaganda.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: But you're paying for it. That's part of the money
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: that goes along with a billionaire money, whether it's from
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: China or someplace also in the world where George Soros
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: or his ilk. We've got American citizens who are very
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: wealthy funding this stuff too. The globalists of the world. So, yes,
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: it's a thing. Yeah, the Trump administration is looking into it.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: Hopefully someday they will be able to trace this and
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: create a true like I want to keep going to reco. Oh,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: you know, two or more actors working together to engage
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: in criminal activity organized crime? Is this organized crime? I
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: like to think it is. That's my perspective on it.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: But someone's gonna have to put all the information together
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: and make a case for it in quart or and
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: diet or whatever the case may be. But yeah, one
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: of many. Pat I'm not discounting your comment. I'm just saying,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: you know, add that to the growing list of people
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: who are funding these crazies. Greg, welcome to the Morning Show.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: Thanks for calling more and Brian.
• 15:28
  Speaker 6: A couple of things.
• 15:29
  Speaker 7: The part where the mask and the rules of law
• 15:34
  Speaker 7: applying to them, that's fine if you're dealing with.
• 15:37
  Speaker 8: Normal same people you're not. Also, don't mind that part.
• 15:44
  Speaker 7: But there also needs to be penalties enforced for the
• 15:50
  Speaker 7: ones that are throwing the things at the police or
• 15:54
  Speaker 7: the ice agents, yes, and assaulting them.
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: Name one person that you know of.
• 16:01
  Speaker 7: That's gotten set to jail for doing that, right, I
• 16:04
  Speaker 7: can name the people of January sixth without a problem.
• 16:08
  Speaker 7: They weren't for those people with a with the wrath
• 16:11
  Speaker 7: of God.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Hunt for that hunted m down over a long period
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: of time. Every single human being who was within a
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: ten mile radius on January sixth was hunted down by
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: the federal government. I mean, and that may be an overstatement,
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: I appreciate it. But you got Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: I get the quote from him later in the program,
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: basically saying he's going to treat the ICE agents in
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: the same way the Biden administration treated the Jay sixers.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: I want you to understand that just as you've come together,
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: and there are state prosecutors come together right now to
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: make sure that people understand that will be accountability. There
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: will be accountability now, there will be accountability in the future.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: There will be accountability after Trump is out of office.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: If we have to hunt you down the way they
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: hunted down Nazis for decades, we will find your identities,
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: we will find you, we will achieve justice, and we
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: will do so under the constitution and the laws of
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: the United States. That's a quote. He's talking about ICE
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: agents doing their job. YEP. I'm sure they'll follow it
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: through with that, make good on it. Yeah, November election

  Speaker 1: here real quick before we get Tom's call. New release
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: records show what Hamilton County officials wanted but did not
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: get in the stadium deal with the Cincinnati Bengals. Lem
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: Me going back in fourth on this. For a while,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: there was an extension of the deadline last I guess
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: to last August. They were trying to hammer out the
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: details and the documents were requested by the Cincinni Inquiry
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: reported on this. Scott Warbon tanks brother. They only got
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: him like just recently in December. It took him five
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: months to produce the various copies of the re of
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: the of the prior lease negotiations. The back and forth
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: it was going on between the county and the attorneys
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: for the Cincinni Bengals. So let's see here. According to
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: Bridget Dherty, Hamilin County spokesperson part of her statement, the
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: single biggest gain in this version of the Lise Agreement
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: is capping the county's investment in stadium renovations, providing long
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: term costs certainty, protecting pack taxpayers from open ended financial exposure.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: I guess the devil's in the details. We'll figure out
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: as we go along how bad this one is versus
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: the original one we got into. So enquire request of
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: the Bengals version of LISE agreement ahead of the extended deadline.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: There was a meeting that led up to the August
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: August first dead line on these negotiations. Enquir says, hey man,
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: can we get the copies of the agreement to see
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: how things have been progressing. Enquir didn't receive the document
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: until five months later, December thirtieth. Well pass the vote,
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: and opportunity for you and I and anybody else in
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: Hamilton County is on the hook for this to weigh
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: in and chime in. Thanks County officials, Thanks Bengals, appreciate
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: the cloak and dagger and the secrecy around this. You
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: don't think we were entitled to some measure of say,
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: considering how we the people who built the damn thing
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: or promised some concessions that we never got. That's cautionary
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: telle for everdon Hamilton County get it in writing anyway?
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: I love this. The attorneys removed language. The Bengals attorneys
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: remove language. It would require the Bengals to provide the
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: county with a detailed report about the revenue that kind
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: of receives from events like the Taylor Swift concert. You
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: think they'll be important Since a new sharing you can't
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: have that. They also wanted some information about profit and
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: the Bengals pretty basically, you've just been denied all information
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: about the kind of revenue the Bengals generate out of
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: that place. Broadbrush statement, it is, but that's the reality.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: How is it that the Bengals have greater negotiation power
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: over the county than the actual people who are spending
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: the money. Tom, Welcome to the Morning Show, Happy Friday, Eve,
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Good morning.
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: Whenever there is a especially Democrats or whatever politicians put
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: together some kind of a deal with spending our money.
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: I think the only thing that the that the public
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: just needs to understand is Bohica, you're gonna get it,
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: and they're gonna take everything they can from you. They're
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: gonna steal your money anyway they can. It's a big
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: pot of money, and somehow or other, you either agree
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: to it or they can tell you agree to it.
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: So that's the way they trade us. Just take our money,
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: use it for whatever we want to use it for. Hey,
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: we know what's best around here. Now they don't. They're
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: they're wasting our money. They're they're not trying to save
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: it at all. They're not trying to help us. I
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: mean really, I mean there's there's sports fans here. I
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: get it. You know, I love sports. I love football.
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: But if you're talking and telling me that spending all
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: this money is worth it, I know it's not. There's
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: more important things that we need that that need to
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: be taken care of this and it's ridiculous. So but
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: it all, it all just keeps coming down to people
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: keep voting for people who are doing this stuff, and
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: then you know, you try to get elected officials in
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: there and they sound like they're going to do the
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: right thing, and and too many of them get in
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: there and then they just fold, they cave in. I
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: don't know why. The pressure from whoever, the donors, you know,
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: the big donors, I mean, you know, and you see
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: all this money. Oh look, oh look what good we
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: could do? Yeah? The good you can do is stop
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: taking so much money from us. Please stop taking so
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: much money from us. Take what you need, take care
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: of what you need to take care of, and leave
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: us alone for the rest of it. And the rest
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: of you. Don't vote Democrats.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: Have a great day, broth fareful out there.
• 22:11
  Speaker 6: Tom.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and just we're taking Aaron Glenn report. Apologies to Aaron.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: I gave Wartman credit for it since saying quir you
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: can read the article for yourself, but I thought this
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: was rather suspicious. Turnings for the Bengals pointed out that
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: county officials were not entitled to request this isn't quotes, request,
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: receive review process, or maintain any financial information from the
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: team or the NFL regarding information about the Bengals revenue,
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: costs and profitability. Huh. I would think that you know,
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: this is just a matter of general fairness. If we
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: built you that grand, glorious thing, and you're telling us
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: we have to pay to maintain and up keep it
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars, do
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: you think it's appropriate for us to at least know
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: how much the Bengals are making out of this venture,
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: to see if we got maybe a good deal or not.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: To compare it to the revenue projections of how much
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: money the Bengals bring to the city by way of
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: you know, the restaurants and all the other revenue that
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: the sporting events supposedly generate for the city. Okay, let's
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: see that figure. Let's see what they at least they
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: claim on paper. This is the net effect of having
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: a professional football stadium in your neighborhood. And every time
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: we have a game, this amount of money is made,
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: and we can multiply that time the number of games
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: they play in the pay Corpse Stadium, and then on
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: the other side, we'll have the revenue chart how much
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: the Bengals earn and make for playing football at pay
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: Corpse Stadium. I just think it'd be interesting to see that,
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: and I don't know why the Bengals don't want you
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: to see that. Let me pull my tongue out of
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: my cheek right now, five thirty five, fifty five kr
• 23:49

  Speaker 1: why why, as to was there a six foot taxidermy
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: bear dressed that way on the front porch of any
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: home anyway? Why are you doing? Thank you me? And
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: then also why would anybody steal it? Although taking me
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: back to my sort of perhaps daring dude childhood, when
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: were in high school, we used to go around and
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: liberate lawn jockeys from the front yards of various homes
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: over on the West Side who were displaying them. I
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: thought that was kind of uncool that, you know, in
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: these modern times, that there would be lawn jockeys. So
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: we used to get in the cargo around. We knew
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: all the ones that were concreted into the ground. We
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: driving by. There's one no, no, no, that we tried that one.
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: It's in the ground anyway, So maybe some of the
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: neighbors of the guy who displayed the six foot taxidermy
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: bear in the front porch are kind of happy that
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: this thing got stolen. I know that would be my reaction. Oh, anyway, coming,
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: plenty of time to talk. If you'd like to call,
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: I'd love to hear from You've got a more breakdown.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: We will talk a little bit about this lawsuit the
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: city of Cincinnati has joined, challenging ice. But also some
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: of the developments have been going on in Minneapolis, and
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: there's plenty going on elsewhere in the world. So feel
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: free to give you a call. Five one three, seven four
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred eighty two to three
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: talk pound five fifty on eighteen to T phones. Stick
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: around to me right back after the news. Today's tough
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: headlines coming up. It'sok to sixtyeventy five kr CD talk station.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: Got a quiz for you. Feel free to call me
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: an answer at five one three, seven four nine fifty
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: five hundred, eight hundred and two three talk found five
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: fifty on your eighteen T phone. Before you get to
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: the rundown, tell me who said this quote. There are
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: those in the immigrants rights community who have argued passionately
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: that we should simply provide those who are here illegally
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: with legal status, or at least ignore the laws on
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: the books and put an end deportation until we have
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: better laws. And often this argument is framed in moral terms.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: Why should we punish people who are just trying to
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: earn a living. I recognize the sense of compassion that
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: drives this argument, but I believe such an indiscredinant approach
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: would be both unwise and unfair. It would suggest to
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: those thinking about coming here illegally that there will be
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: no repercussions for such a decision, and this could lead
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: to a surge in more illegal immigration. And it would
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: also ignore the millions of people around the world who
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: are waiting in line to come here legally. Ultimately, our nation,
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: like all nations, has the right and obligation to control
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: its borders and set laws for residency and citizenship, and
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: no matter how decent they are, no matter their reasons,
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: the eleven million who broke these laws should be held accountable.
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: Close quote who said that? Is that Donald Trump? Yesterday?
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: Jostracker's got his hand up, Joe Who who might have
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: said that? Barack Hussein Obama. It was in twenty ten
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: at the American University School of International Service. Barack Obama
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: deported more than anybody else so far. In fact, I
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: think he had. The figure I got the other day
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: was Barack Obama idported more illegal immigrants from this country,
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: whether or not they were criminals, than all the other
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: presidents that preceded him. Lots of figures floating around there.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: Four million something sticks in my mind, but I could
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: be wrong on that. What happened to the Democrat Party?
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: Is this not a radical shift?
• 37:33
  Speaker 6: Right?
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's a one it It's like, can there be
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: worse than a one eighty? All of that Barack Obama
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: defending this again, we're talking about non criminals here. In
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: the case of Barack Obama's context, he was all over it.
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: And we pivot over to today, we're Philadelphia Democrat District
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: Attorney Ry Krasner. It just I mean talking about hunting
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: down ICE agents for doing their job. Huh. There's a
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: mixed sentiment out there about whether this is good or
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: bad for the Democrats. It's cracked down an illegal immigration.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: Many are suggesting that all of this outrage is FAE manufactured.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: It doesn't have that ground swell of widespread support this
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: anti ice activity that we are being told it does.
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: Read all the op eds from the Wall Street Journal
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: over to the more left wing news sites. I give
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: credit to the Wall Street Journey for at least trying
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: to provide a fair and neutral balance. But you know,
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: opinion pieces or opinion pieces, they're intended to be biased.
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: But even some of the more conservative writers and authors
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: and and opinion calumnists at various newspapers are saying, well,
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: we might want to back off on this. Jason Riley
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: read his column quite a few times on The Morning Show.
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: Trump can quit while he's ahead on immigration, fulfilled promises
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: to close the border, but heavy handed massive enforcement is unpopular?
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: Is it unpopular? Barack Obama knew that it was popular
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: to remove illegal immigrants. Donald Trump got elected on the
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: promise to remove illegal immigrants. He really didn't qualify it
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: much when he said his starting point was the criminal
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: illegal immigrants. A lot of people and commentators are now
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: pointing out something that is right the elephant in the room.
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: Many times, it is a crime to enter the country illegally.
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: So I suppose it depends on what your definition of
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: criminal is. Someone might argue that anybody who entered the
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: country illegally is a criminal, illegal immigrant ergo all should
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: be removed. But the Republicans are tend to wavering. There's
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: a lot of Republicans at the House of Representatis who
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: are now like, I'm not comfortable with this. I'm not
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: comfortable with this. We're gonna lose the election in November.
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: Do you think this election will be lost to the
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: Democrats in November by way of majority in the House
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: because of the crackdown on illegal immigrants. I mean, it's
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: one narrow issue among so many issues that are impacting
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: our country clearly, and the economy is number one on
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: the hearts and minds of the vast majority of everybody
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: that's been pulled on it. You know, it's up there,
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: but it's not anywhere near the economy. The economy is
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: a big focus. So I'm just scratching my head a
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: little bit. But that, yes, was Barack Obama. Why how
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: the world has changed? The Democrats? Did you leave the
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: Democratic Party? The Democratic Party leave you? And if you
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: left them, maybe it was because of how far left
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: they've shifted. Will we forget that that they are the
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: party behind so many wildly unpopular platforms. Well, city of
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: Cincinnati is in it. Unfortunately, we're gonna hear from Christopher Smith.
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: In late addition to the fifty five Cadasey Morning Show,
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: Congressman Warren Davidson coming up at seven oh five. We'll
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: talk about the will there be a government shutdown this weekend?
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: Based upon Chucky Schumer's comments, they're ready to pass five
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: of the rations bills. DHS is the stumbling block. But
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: based upon what Schumer said yesterday, the three issues they're
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: arguing about don't seem to me to be necessarily deal breakers. Well,
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: we'll hear what Congressman Davidson has to say about him.
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: He's waiting for the Epstein files Topic two and then
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: US Treasury Departments Trump accounts. Some of this Trump accounts
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: are great. I know you probably hate the name if
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: you're not a Trump fan, but the concept is amazing.
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: I think just getting children engaged in their own economic future,
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: giving them a say about investing, showing them the beauty
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: of a compound interest. Start with a grand you'll end
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: up with a lot of money after eighteen years. And yes,
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: a lot of folks are able to contribute to these
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: various Trump accounts smithem it again seven thirty ten. Beard,
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: author of the book Look Twice Staying Safe in an
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: Unsafe World. He'll join the program at eight o five
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: Doctor j Rissover, the chicken Soup cookoff is coming up.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: He'll give the details on that. And then, of course
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: it being Friday eve. I heard me the aviation expert
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: Jay rattlofever to something. Christmas Smith is going to chine on.
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: Cincinnati as well as Columbus. The cities have joined eighty
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: local governments and others across the country challenging the constitutionality
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: of what Trump is doing by way of deploying armed
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: federal agents. In the Minneapolis Saint Paul, Columbus City Attorney,
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: we've got our own here. Cincinnati Solicitor Emily smart Werner
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: is in charge of the Cincinnati's efforts in connection with
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: joining this lawsuit. What we're seeing in the Twin Cities
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: is horrific, heartbreaking, more of the same illegal and unconstitutional
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: tactics from the Trump fans administration that seemingly cares more
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: about retribution than the rule of law. Mentions that the
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: couple of people who have been shot and killed. Of course,
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: you said local governments are under threat? Are they? And
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: residents continue to have worried about the federal agents upending
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: their daily lives. Hey, Joe, do you fret at night
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: about federal agents upending your daily life? Daily bird? I
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: know I've seen it, look in your face of late
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: Columbus City attorney. The courts are the surest check against
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: this administration. We use every tool we have in this
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: to hold this administratation accountable for their overreach. HM should
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: check with Barack Obama circa twenty ten on that. Anyway,
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: cases in federal court judges to try to determine whether
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: to grant a request from officials in Minnesota to temporarily
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: stop ice, which Minnesota claims and the City of Minneapolis
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: and Saint Paul of course claims is unlawful and relies
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: on the use of excessive force. And racial profiling always
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: comes down to race, doesn't it. And you know this
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: whole idea of racial profile Anyhow, we do a crime
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: stop or bad Guy of the week every week on
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: this show. There's a picture of them or her, as
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: the case may be. If the suspect is five to
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: ten weighs one hundred and seventy pounds is Asian. Perhaps,
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: is it racial profiling to look for Asians who are
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: that height and weight. I'm sorry, No, that's a rhetorical question.
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: Oh you're saying it's only racial profiling if the purpose
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: an African American. Well, I mean, you can make that
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: stupid argument, But that will be dumb, wouldn't it, Because
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: you're looking for a particular person with a particular type
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: of characteristics, who you know, you have probable cause to
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: believe is engaged in criminal activity. So that's a racist concept.
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: I thought it was a way of getting to the
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: root of the problem by ignoring the rest of the
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: population who do not fit the profile of the person
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: you're looking for. Okay, Gamul, the word racist comes out
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: of Streker's mouth anyway. As far as the judge, Judge Menendez,
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: who this case is in front of, see, you got Minneapolis, St. Paul,
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: I guess now Cincinnati and Columbus and Cleveland asking federal
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: Judge Cape Menendez to provide a temporary pause on ICE's
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: activities as part of this larger lawsuit, which alleges the
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: Trump administration is violating the state's constitutional right to police
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: its own state judgment Menendez a Biden appointee, reportedly appearing
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: skeptical of the state's argument, saying, I don't know how
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: you are asking me to identify when the federal government
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: has crossed the line. It would be kind of a
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: difficult measure, wouldn't it. Lawsuit claims federal officers are engaged
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: in a campaign of racial profile, excessive force, retaliation, enforcement
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: and sensitive locations, open disregard for and violations of Defendant's
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: owned policies, and open disregard for violations of state law.
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: All right, coalition asking the court to block further unlawful
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: actions taken by Ice and restore normalcy. That word unlawful
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: critical because what's unlawful? Going back to the judge's point,
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: I don't know how you're asking me to identify the
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: win the federal government has crossed the line, in other words,
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: engaged in unlawful activity. You want to give me a
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: set of parameters, you know, let me tell you. Do
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: you want to tell me what you're talking about? We're
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: involved now, City of Cincinnati. I suppose there will be
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: a taxpayer dollars at work in that lawsuit five on
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: three seven fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eight to
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: two or three, talk top five fifty on eight and
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: T phones. You know me, I'm all about saving money,
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: have been my entire life. Six if you have k
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: CEV talk station Friday, let's get start to the Phone's
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: got Steve on the line of the comment, Steve, thanks
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: for calling this morning. Welcome to the Morning Show.
• 46:35
  Speaker 11: Yes, sir, you know, as cold as it's been, and
• 46:38
  Speaker 11: I can't wait until the temperature breaks. The last three
• 46:41
  Speaker 11: days we've had the most glorious days with nothing but
• 46:44
  Speaker 11: a blue sky and the sun and it you know,
• 46:47
  Speaker 11: you don't want it to be that cold. But let's
• 46:50
  Speaker 11: hang on to the positive. I mean, we've had great days,
• 46:53
  Speaker 11: you know. And I've got neighbors that you can't get
• 46:55
  Speaker 11: them to open their blinds for anything. And I'm like,
• 46:57
  Speaker 11: you just, you know, deprived yourself of gotting the sunshine
• 47:02
  Speaker 11: and it raises your spirits everything.
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: That's the whole. That vitamin D production does factor into
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: the equation as well. It's good for you. Many people
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: struggle struggle with vitamin D deficiency. Get out in the sun.
• 47:12
  Speaker 11: Yeah, how'd you like to live in Alaska when it
• 47:14
  Speaker 11: was dark?
• 47:14
  Speaker 6: You know?
• 47:15
  Speaker 11: I mean I couldn't. This is as far north as
• 47:17
  Speaker 11: I'll ever be. But you know, so the states that
• 47:20
  Speaker 11: are trying to you know, Ohio and Minnesota, and the
• 47:24
  Speaker 11: states get to enforce their or get their law. Well,
• 47:27
  Speaker 11: Texas tried to do that by putting up razor wire
• 47:30
  Speaker 11: because the federal government wasn't doing its job, and the
• 47:35
  Speaker 11: judges would not allow them to do it because it
• 47:38
  Speaker 11: was the federal government's job. You know, I just want
• 47:41
  Speaker 11: a little consistency. It's like it's it's the federal government
• 47:45
  Speaker 11: takes precedent or the state does. But you know, it
• 47:50
  Speaker 11: seems like elections aren't don't have consequences. In other words,
• 47:55
  Speaker 11: a lot of times the guy gets in there that
• 47:58
  Speaker 11: I didn't vote for, and you deal with it. You know,
• 48:01
  Speaker 11: I'm not rioting in the streets. You deal with it. Okay,
• 48:04
  Speaker 11: your guy didn't get in this time.
• 48:06
  Speaker 12: Just just deal with it.
• 48:07
  Speaker 11: You know, the country wanted the other guy. So I
• 48:10
  Speaker 11: just wish the judges would not be as political as
• 48:14
  Speaker 11: they are. I wish they would say, hey, consistently, let's
• 48:19
  Speaker 11: look at the law. This is how it is. You know,
• 48:22
  Speaker 11: as a layman, that's how.
• 48:23
  Speaker 6: I see it.
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: And I appreciate your perception on that is obviously very complicated.
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: You got supremacy clause issues to deal with. You have
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: the idea that this is federal law. The reality that
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: local law enforcement does not have to enforce federal law.
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: That's why we have federal law enforcement agencies. Local law
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: enforcements is supposed to deal with state issues, although throughout
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: this country's history, local law enforcement has quite often cooperated
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: with and participated in the prosecution of federal crimes. They
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: work together, that's what law enforcement's supposed to do. This
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: is kind of a total breakdown of the whole thing. Yeah,
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: your Texas point is great. The federal government is not
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: doing something to protect the order the laws on the
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: books say they're supposed to be. You know, I'll call
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: it prosecutorial discretion. The federal government once open borders under
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: the Biden administration, so they open them up. Texas tries
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: to step up and do the Fed's job, and they
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: get smacked down by the federal courts. That's not your purview,
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: it's it's it's a federal function. And you got the
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: polar opposite going on now. You know, Trumble administration is
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: asking for assistance from local law enforcement so ICE can
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: do its job. I read that and understand that to
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: be local law enforcement, enforce the local laws, and those
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: also apply to enforcement of local laws as it relates
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: to violence against IE agents. They're saying, no, we will
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: not do that. We won't help you enforce the federal law,
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: which is weird because enforcing local laws against violence and
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: and and and and you know, the beat downs and
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: frozen water bottles, assaults batteries, et cetera, et cetera. That's
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: enforcing local laws. That's not actually enforcing federal laws. But
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: because it's an evil federal employee, they don't get the
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: benefit of local laws and the enforcement of local laws.
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: It's kind of twisted, isn't it. Their viewed is lesser
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: than not worthy of the protections that each and every
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: person in the state of Minneapolis or in the city
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: of Minneapolis, for example, enjoys. If you're assaulted by your
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: neighbor in Minneapolis, local law enforcement will come over and
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: presumably arrest your neighbor for assaulting you, unless you happen
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: to be working for the federal government, in which case
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: they're going to say nothing to see here. Six twenty six,
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: right now, fifty five car see the talk station. We
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: dive into local stores or the talk station sixty fifty
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: five carc De talk station Friday even a half you
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: on Brian Thomas wanting to give a shout out to
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: the Help Squad since he with the y Help Squads,
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: to the Health Squad, since he with they dot com.
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: I've had Brian Ibel, a former police officer on. He
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: formed the Help Squad charitable organization. They are the Christian
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: Mission organization, but they're helping folks out on the West Side,
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: struggling working fans Wi's the West Side, helping them with
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: maybe a temporary rent payment problem, maybe getting them an appliance.
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: Folks truly on life's needs, and they're really good about
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: vetting who receives the aid that you donate to the
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: Help Squad. And my sister is planning on moving and
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: she's got a bunch of furniture and things, and she
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: was talking to me and she says, I wonder where
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: I can donate this. I said, you're over on the
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: West Side. How about the Help Squad? Brian Ibold. She's like, yeah, Brian,
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: that's great. Oh what a great idea. So maybe that's
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: going to happen. I come into the morning show this
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: morning and look right there on my studio table, here
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: is this beautiful plant. It was wrapped up, but you know,
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: a floral delivery. It's from the Help Squad. I'm like, oh,
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: I bet my sister reached out to them, and Brian
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: ibolw was kind of thinking me and I texted him
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: this morning. He said, nope, we were just thinking about
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: you and concern for you. I think cancer related, you know,
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: And you just sent it out of the good of
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: the goodness of their heart. So, Brian Ibold and everbody
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: at the Help Squad, since you got a free plug
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: out of that. I would have given you a free
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: plug anyway, but what a kind hearted gesture. That was
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: really made my morning. So if you have some little
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: extra time, you can donate your time. You can volunteer
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: help the Help Squad or just maybe make a donation.
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: Get in touch with them easily at the Help Squad.
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: Sincy with a y dot com over the local stories.
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: Since I ken me a reaction on this, since they
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: public schools back open today, they've been closed for three days. Fine,
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: we understand whether related conditions. The roads were terrible and
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: crappy and it's cold out there. So back in session
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: they are, they said, maintenance teams have checked the buildings, transportation,
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: all the conditions are great. They can resume class. Asking
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: the community for a little help on that. I'll get
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: to that in a minute. Yellow bus service is going
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: to run on normal schedules. Minor delays are certainly possible
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: given the circumstances, but they're still running. And the school
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: district's asking everybody to help clear the full width of
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: public sidewalks so the kids can obviously walk safely on
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: the sidewalks and sure they're clean curve rams near the
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: bus stops or passable, check on neighbors may need assistance,
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: and avoid piling snow to block crosswalks and loading zones.
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: Fair enough question foc to nineteen news reporting though, that
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: a lot of parents are a little upset about this
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: at their opening schools because it's cold. Joe, did they
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: ever when you were a kid, Did they ever close
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: the schools because it was cold, Only if there was
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: like a water main break or something, right, Yeah, that's
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: the way I remember it. I remember the blizzard in
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: the seventies. Of course school was shut down, but that
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: was all based on the road conditions. People were literally
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: walking across the Ohio River. But as soon as the
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: roads were cleaned up, everybody went back to school. Okay, Joe,
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: that was kind of my reaction to it as well.
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: I know it's really cold out there, but you know,
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: gloves and heavy coat, maybe a scarf and a hat. Anyway,
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: kids should be playing outside of the extent they can.
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: I see here other local stories. This is a weird
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: one emergency cruise recovered to vehicle went into the Ohio River,
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: talk about cold. Happened on Wednesday evening five pm near
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: the Sinceei Public Landing Court in the sin Sei Police apartment.
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: The vehicle drove down the landing number DOC number three
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: into the river. Police said there appears to have been
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: an occupant. After they recovered the vehicle late Wednesday night,
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: Kentucky plates since a fire department's dive team enter the
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: water Oohoo for what Lieutenant Harry described as a recovery mission.
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: He says, of right now, we believe the vehicle was occupied.
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: We don't know how by how many. Right now the
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: detail is very minimal, but we're waiting for the equipment
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: to get here and hopefully we can go in and
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: tow the vehicle out of the water. Biggest challenges, of course,
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: stating the obvious, the frigid temperatures and poor visibility. All right,
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: your kids complaining about standing at the bus stop for
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: five minutes waiting for the bus to show up because
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: it's cold. How'd you like to get in the Ohio
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: River today?
• 54:42
  Speaker 4: Been conceivable?
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you, Joe. Six thirty five a New Hamshire.

• 55:06
  Speaker 1: have been reading about it over hitting the the east coast.
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: Northeast Florida is going to experience single digit windshil temperatures.
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: No love from Strekker for the folks in Florida. New Hamster, Gary,
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: welcome back to the show. Good to hear from me
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: this morning.
• 55:25
  Speaker 6: We had minus seven yesterday and minus four today.
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: Did you have school.
• 55:30
  Speaker 6: It's all fun. We do have school.
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Joe was asking about all those though, the moms
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: complaining about their kids having to go to school when
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: it's cold out. Joe said, yeah, but I bet they would.
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: She would let them outside if they wanted to go
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: sled riding anyhow.
• 55:42
  Speaker 6: Exactly, exactly, just have these kids spend a winter out
• 55:49
  Speaker 6: in the uh or Dan forest back in World War two,
• 55:53
  Speaker 6: your lord, Yeah, no kidding. Hey, just another scandal that's
• 56:00
  Speaker 6: been going on up here. Back in twenty twenty three,
• 56:05
  Speaker 6: there was a mass shooting in Lewiston, Maine. And what
• 56:09
  Speaker 6: happened was there was a nonprofit that was directed by
• 56:14
  Speaker 6: the state of Maine and they raised millions of dollars
• 56:20
  Speaker 6: in this. But what happened to the money was most
• 56:24
  Speaker 6: of it was given out to twenty nine nonprofits. These
• 56:29
  Speaker 6: were all NGOs and they were all it was all
• 56:34
  Speaker 6: gone to the Somali community, and they really lost track
• 56:41
  Speaker 6: of the money, is what happened. These twenty nine millions
• 56:45
  Speaker 6: of dollars have been funneled. Now a lot of people
• 56:47
  Speaker 6: are raising you know, hey, this was under false pretense,
• 56:52
  Speaker 6: and that the money's gone and nobody's being held accountable
• 56:57
  Speaker 6: and I also know that there was fourteen million dollars
• 57:00
  Speaker 6: in Somali daycare leering centers up in Dublin, Ohio. I
• 57:05
  Speaker 6: used to live in Dublin, Ohio. And also this petty guy,
• 57:10
  Speaker 6: there's a video on gun and gear on X of
• 57:16
  Speaker 6: him kicking the light tail lights out of ice vehicles.
• 57:23
  Speaker 6: He was also seen was at that he had a
• 57:26
  Speaker 6: broken rib, apparently because of a previous encounter with ice.
• 57:32
  Speaker 6: And this whole thing's a set up. It's well coordinated.
• 57:36
  Speaker 6: It's like you said, it's countries and individuals donating billions
• 57:42
  Speaker 6: of dollars so that they can steal trillions of dollars
• 57:47
  Speaker 6: throughout the country. That's just all I gotta say.
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying. And of course we have
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: got a lot of that type of activity going on.
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: You know, you can go up for the Smali daycares,
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: you can go up to well literally any NGO program.
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: And going back to a caller who phoned earlier, I've
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: seen some very very lengthy breakdowns about how taxpayer dollars
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: going through NGOs. Many of these NGOs demonstrably and out
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: loud far left political organizations, and that money which has
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: been given to them via the federal government through grants
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: is being used of course for these activities in Minneapolis
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: as well as elsewhere. But they're funding left wing Just
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: let's boil it down to propaganda or a left wing
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: ideological push, whether it's on the streets of Minneapolis or
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: any place else. How in the hell can it be
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: that the federal government awards your labor, as I always
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: express it, in the form of the money they took
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: out of your paycheck to any politically bent organization. The
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: left would be pulling their hair ounds screaming from the
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: highest mountains and in the streets if they found out that,
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: oh my god, you know, Turning Point USA has been
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: getting hundreds of millions of dollars of the United States
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: taxpayer money to support their fascist cause. Yeah, it comes.
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: I know whose ox is being Gord, But rest assured,
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: this is not going away anytime soon, as much as
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: the left might want it. You know, the Trump administration
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: is going to be around for another three years. You
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: got three years to maybe cracked down on and perhaps
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: try to claw back some of this money. Donald Trump
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: just yesterday named a described as seized federal prosecutor guy
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: named Colin McDonald who's going to be leading the Department
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: of Justices new National Fraud Enforcement Division. Yes, he had
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: another government agency, and here I am speculating as to
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: why it's new. That's the thing that really irks me.
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: I go back to Dave Hatter. The tech companies should
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: be designing products first and foremost with your security in mind,
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: given all the security challenges these these devices create. They
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: don't do that. Since it's our taxpayer dollars, our labor
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: being taken from us by the federal government, ye should
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: damn well have already had a National Fraud Enforcement Division
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: in place ahead of time. Their first and foremost obligation
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: should be a fiduciary one to you and I the
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: American taxpayer, to protect our money from being stolen, and
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: do a better job of vetting these NGOs before handing
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: money to them, or not handing money to any NGO
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: that's going to go out and do political work. Demand
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: that every single account dollar be accounted for by any
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: NGO who receives it. What did you spend the money
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: on a team of Todd Zenzer's our citizen Watchdog, former
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: Inspector General for the federal government. I hope you got
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: a whole lot more. Todd Zenzer's out still working for
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: the federal government. Who can take on this role that
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: every single state appoints someone like an inspector general to
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: follow the federal money that's gone in to fund any
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: of these state programs like Medicaid. How about that, Jay,
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: I know you're out there six billion dollars in Medicaid
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: fraud instead of Ohio, WHOA, Maybe we should look after that.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: That doesn't matter. It's federal taxpayer dollars. We're not really
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: on the hook of How shut up. It's American taxpayer money.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: It's worthy of being followed, and it's worthy to see
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 1: these NGOs are actually doing what they say they want
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: to do when they got the grant because they outlowed
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: set although under the Biden administration, imagine they got the money. Anyway,
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: if you go out and you say I'm going to
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: use this money defend to go out and spew Marxist propaganda,
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: that is my goal. That is what I want the
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: NGO to do, and that's why I'm asking for money
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: for the federal garment. They wouldn't give it to you.
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: But if you say you're going to feed the homeless
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: or help the children or serve the community. You're like,
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: oh wow, that sounds like a great goal. Here, take
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: some money and help the community. Maybe follow up and
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: find out what that means. Well, we're helping the community
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: by spreading Marxist ideology because we want wealth redistribution. Well,
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: there you have it. That's how these things happen. Six
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: forty six. Right now, if you have carc DE talk station,
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: you know it's cold out, whether you think see the
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: talk station fifty one. If you have CARCD talk station,
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: Congressman Warren Davidson at the top of the air news
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: that we can stick around for that one. Will the
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: government shut down this weekend waiting for the Epstein files
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: and the US Treasury Department's Trump accounts summit these Trump accounts.
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 1: I'm excited for young people, and I think it's going
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: to be a great thing as it unfolds into the years.
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 1: Get the interest rates on that in just a second, op. Yes,
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: Paul Ett, thank you very much. My wife chimed in
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: hearing what I was saying about medicaid fraud. She points
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: out that we have crime units for the purpose of
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: ferreting out fraud all the stage do noted, I the
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 1: Hio Attorney General is responsible for this, and she points out,
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 1: I think the obvious are just not doing the work.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: My point was a little broader than just medicaid, although
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 1: we use it as an illustration where fraud wasted abuse
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: is occurring. How about all dollars going out into the world.
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: Let's find them, let's track them and make sure there's
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: not fraud wasted abuse, because clearly it's a golden opportunity
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 1: when an NGO gets your money to just run with
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: it and do whatever they damn well please, because there
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: is no accountability and no oversight. As to the comments
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: from the last color about Alex Pretty, the guy that
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: was killed by the ICE agents, yeah he was involved
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: with them. There is a widely shared video out there
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: and it's been verified from his family and others that
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: it is in fact Alex Pretty kicking out the lights
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: of an suv. This before immigration authorities wrestled them to
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: the ground in a prior incident. But this is something
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 1: we're talked about with A. W. R. Hawkins yesterday. We
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: don't know that the agents knew it was him. Now
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: he could have been guilty of all kinds of activities
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 1: prior to the day he shows up there, and I
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: think you need to judge the propriety of how ICE
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 1: officers interacted with him and whether or not that shooting
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: was appropriate under the circumstances, based upon what they knew
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 1: at the time. If they weren't aware that this guy
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 1: had kicked the lights out of an suv and otherwise
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: got into scraps with ICE agents before, if they you know,
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 1: you hear what I'm saying, If they didn't know that
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: he had previously been armed in these conflicts before. Not
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: no reports of him brandishing a firearm or pointing it
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 1: at federal agents or anything like that, but if they'd
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: known that he was previously armed, kind of a modus
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: operandi thing, Hey be careful. We know that guy has
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: been carrying a firearm out. We haven't had any issues
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: with the firearm yet, but he has. He has been
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 1: demonstrating violence toward Ice. Look, he kicked out the suv
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: tail lights. Important information, But hindsight's always twenty twenty. If
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 1: you're in a situation and you're gonna be judged by
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 1: the reasonableness of your conduct in using deadly force, what
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: did you know at that moment in time? If the
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: information about this guy had been widely circulated, his picture
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: had been given ICE agents. They knew he was there.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 1: These ICE agents had known about the least him generally speaking,
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: he's in the crowd, be careful, then maybe that might
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 1: factor it in. Jez, the guy's been armed previously, he's
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 1: shown no uh no willingness to comply with ICE previously,
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: and look he's doing it again. Heightened sense of awareness
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: and something that might factor into the west of the
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: answering the question of whether it was reasonable. Got time
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: for Mike. Mike, thanks for calling this morning. Welcome to
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: the Morning Show.
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 13: Hi, Brian, Uh about the NGOs you're talking about, Uh,
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 13: if all the nng O said they're going to help
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 13: the homeless and then all the hungry children and feed
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 13: the hungry, there shouldn't be any homeless or hungry children
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 13: at all, all them hundreds of billions of dollars that
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 13: we put out there. Yeah, so when you get money
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 13: to an NGU, there needs to be a cap on
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 13: how much goes to salary of the people that work there.
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 1: Salaries. Yeah, because that's something I make that it's five
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 1: O one C three just because it says it's a
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 1: not for profit doesn't mean that the people running it
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 1: are not making fat bank Quite These people are quite
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: often handsomely paid. Going back to your point, Mike, they
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 1: have no interest in solving the problem, or they would
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: not get that NGO soundalary. They're getting that five o'
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: one c three salary. Look, problems solved. I don't have
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: a job anymore. I successively worked myself doing the job
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: I promised to do into a position of unemployment. Yeah,
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: I'm sure you can use that argument on a whole
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: lot of things. Some people suggest, and I'm not one
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: who believes this, that the pharmaceutical companies don't want you
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: to have a cure for cancer that they've got once
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: been in the back room for years and years. But
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: there's so much money made on cancer research and cancer
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: drugs that maybe they don't want to cure. That's something
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: that's been going around for a long time by way
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 1: of an innuendo or a conspiracy theory, if you will,
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: and a certain degree it makes a hell of a
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: lot of sense. Even I have said I wish all
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 1: the problems would go away in the world. No, I
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 1: wouldn't have anything to talk about in air go there
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: would be no fifty five KRES Morning Show. I would
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 1: find something else to do with my time. I don't
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: think they share that attitude. Jay, Apologies can't get to you.
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 1: Got Congressman Warren Davidson waiting in the wings. He'll be
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 1: joining the program right after the top of the air
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 1: news fall by Christopher Smitheman edition given the lawsuit. It's
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: seven to six here at fifty five Carsit the talk
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: station after Friday Eve. Brian Thomas hosts here the fifty
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: five Cassee Morning Show. Welcoming back, and I truly appreciate
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 1: his willingness to join the fifty five Cassee Morning Show regularly.
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 1: Welcome back Congressman Warren Davidson. It's a pleasure to have
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: you on, as it always is, sir.
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 8: Yeah, always an honor. Nice to talk with you, Brian.
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 1: Well, before we dive in onto whether or not the
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 1: government's going to shut down this weekend because it has
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 1: a lot to do with ICE and its activities, let
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 1: me ask you a question here. I read earlier in
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 1: the program this twenty ten Barack Obama position statement that
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: he defended his efforts and his successful efforts, mind you
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 1: to deport illegal immigrants regardless of whether they were just
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: regular members of the community who've been here for a
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: long time. He said, it's often the argument is framed
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 1: in moral terms. Why should we punish people who are
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 1: just trying to earn a living. I recognize the sense
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 1: of compassion that drives this argument, but I believe such
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 1: an indiscriminate approach would be both unwise and unfair. He's
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 1: worried about there there would be no repercussions for such
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: a decision if more illegals came here than there's got
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 1: to be, or more are going to flow in. In
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: other words, that's an incentive for people to come into
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 1: the country if they know they're not going to be deported.
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 1: He was all about doing exactly what Donald Trump is doing.
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: So that was twenty ten. Obama Democrats didn't scream, her
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: wail and ashtief about that. Biden comes in, Congressman Davidson,
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: floods the whole country with the illegal immigrants, with open
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: borders and does not deport anybody, resulting in who wins
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: the election? Donald Trump promising to do what Barack Obama's does,
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 1: shutting the border down and removing illegal immigrants. So we
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 1: got Trump back in. He's back to the Obama position
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 1: on that, and the masshysteria ensues. Now, obviously this is crazy.
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 1: But Congressman Warren Davidson going to the ultimate point, is
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 1: this going to affect the midterm elections. A lot of
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 1: Republicans now are getting cold feet, They're getting worried, they're
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: sweating that this anti ice activity that is spreading is
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: becoming the dominant narrative. Ergo, Trump's gonna suck from the election.
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: Republicans is going to lose seats in the House. I'm
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 1: not quite sure if the will of the American people
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: is expressed by the history of the past fifteen years,
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 1: it sounds to me like the American people want tough
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: on illegal immigration in this country. Have we lost that
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: many people to the pro you know, pro or anti
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: ice sentiment. Congressman Davidson starf for going so long winded.
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 8: No, you made a lot of great points, Brian, And
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 8: I mean, that's the kind of stuff when I'm out
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 8: talking to you know, constituents, people in the eighth district,
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 8: they still want a secure border. They know Donald Trump
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 8: secured the border. Frankly, Obama didn't actually secure the border
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 8: very well, but he did do deportations, and he did
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 8: him pretty well. And who did he trust to do
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 8: it Tom Homan.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 8: He awarded Tom Homan for basically being a great, great
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 8: leader on his job of ice, you know, getting people
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 8: who aren't supposed to be here out of the country.
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 8: And I think, you know, the operation is, this is
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 8: an information war, and there's a ground game in Minneapolis
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 8: unlike every other city. I mean, there are sanctuary cities
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 8: around the country where they have kind of coordinated community
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 8: organizers that do all this activism, but they're at a
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 8: whole different level up there in little Somalia, and we
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 8: need to get serious about, you know, the tactics and techniques.
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 8: I mean, I think the big thing is you learn
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 8: from counterinsurgency doctrine, which the US spent a lot of
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 8: energy doing that. The means that you employ do matter.
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 8: So you still want to deal with the insurgency and
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 8: get rid of this stuff, but you know, the tactics
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 8: really have to be in a way that reinforces your effort.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 8: So I think that's the reason Tom Homan gets sent
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 8: up there, is to get back to what works and
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 8: hopefully they don't take their eye off the ball and say, oh, well,
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 8: let's let the bedwetters win and find some middle ground.
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 8: The middle ground is you've been invited to leave. Here's
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 8: one thousand dollars plus travel expenses, please leave. That's middle ground.
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 8: So I think they've they've extended, you know, olive branches
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 8: here that don't require enforcement actions.
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And I thought political brilliance, assuming anybody out there
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 1: in the world's paying attention that Tom Homan point because
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 1: he was Obama's point man, and Obama praised him and
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 1: gave him an award for the work that he did
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: and dealing with a border. So you know, there's the
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 1: same guy in the same role at Minneapolis. Again, I
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: thought that was a brilliant selection by President Trump, and
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: it brings that to the head. But just like Barack
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 1: Obama's position on deporting illegal immigrants, even if there's people
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 1: that had been in the community for a while, just
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: going to work every single day.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, look, it is the sense of urgency
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 8: greater for people to close, the greater risk to the country.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 8: I mean, you know there's a reason you created, like
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 8: the FBI so ten most wanted, right, I mean, there
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 8: is more important to catch those folks than the petty
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 8: crime issues. But we've been trying to get the FBI
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 8: focused on those things for a while, right like when
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 8: somebody going to jail on the top of the list.
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 8: And I think that's the concern. Even in Minneapolis. You
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 8: think they jumped to shark when they raid a church
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 8: and start disrupting a worship service on Sunday morning. But
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 8: it looks like DOJ may not even go full force
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 8: on the charges for these people.
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 1: Well, and that to me only encourages them to continue
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 1: to do that type of thing absence some kind of
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 1: crackdown on it. It's only going to get it's going
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 1: to continue or get worse. Pivoting aver to how this
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: is going to impact, perhaps to shut down to the
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 1: federal government fast approaching. We've got this one big six
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 1: appropriation bills, the part of which includes a Department of
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 1: Homeland Security funding, and that's what the Democrats are now
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: standing firm on, saying that they do not agree with
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 1: the current writing as it is. Chuck Schumer said he
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 1: wants three things. An end to roving patrols of ICE
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 1: agents in US cities, a holding ICE agents to the
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 1: same use of force policies that apply to state and
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 1: local law enforcement. And then finally requiring ICE and other
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 1: immigrans agents where body cameras, remove masks and always carry
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 1: proper state identification. Those the three stumbling blocks. If it
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: really boils down to all that, can that be ironed
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 1: out and agreed upon or is our government going to
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 1: be shut down?
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 8: Congressman Davidson, Well, even if they agreed to that, the
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 8: government would shut down because that's not the version that
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 8: passed the House. So I think they should not agree
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 8: to those things. And you know what they did in
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 8: the House is they broke the bills out separately and
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 8: had separate votes so that Democrats could voice their opposition
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 8: to funding ICE, which to me is you know, about
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 8: as dumb as defunding the police. But okay, go ahead
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 8: and cast that vote, y'all. So I think they're going
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 8: to break it apart in the Senate, which does give
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 8: extra debate. We'll see whether they get it done by
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 8: you know, the deadline here, or whether we end up
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 8: with a small shutdown over the weekend. On the outside,
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 8: you know, hey, they may just take their take their
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 8: ball and go home and try to do another six
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 8: week shutdown or something. But you know, the funding bills
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 8: have passed the House, and they're not perfect, but you know,
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 8: Ice and border security are funded, as is the whole government.
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 8: If they just passed the House as built. There are
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 8: some things in it that I think, well, you know
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 8: we should have. We had some good amendments in there
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 8: to defund certain things that didn't pass. But nevertheless, russ Vote,
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 8: who's President Trump's leader of omb, He's like, look, we're
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 8: not going to fund refugee resettlement. And you know it
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 8: would take Trump telling me to do that for me
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 8: to do that. And do you think Trump's going to
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 8: tell me to somehow do some big refugee resettlement program
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 8: and that's just not going to happen. So the money
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 8: is appropriated in some of these things to appease Democrats
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 8: and get Democrat votes. But at the end of the day,
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 8: you know, Trump is still going to lead on the
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 8: things that he promised.
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 3: To do.
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 1: Well as well he should what got him elected. I mean,
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 1: he's really just making good on his campaign pledge. Is
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: so surprising pe that people are just amazed that this
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: is actually happening here in the country. So procedurally, if
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: there are any changes to what the Senate is looking
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 1: at right now. It's coming back to you in.
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 8: The House, that's right. Yeah, so we we're supposed to
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 8: be back in on Monday, so uh some other coordinated
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 8: plan for everybody to get back. I mean, you know,
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 8: you would have some marginal shutdown on until Monday. You know,
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 8: if if the House would pass the same thing that
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 8: the Senate passed, and I think the other thing, I
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 8: don't think that's what's going to happen. I think there's
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 8: enough sane Democrats that they would pass past the funding
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 8: and maybe they just to go. Okay, for those of
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 8: you that want to be records, what we had to
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 8: do in the House, we broke it out separately, and
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 8: Democrats said they weren't going to play unless they got
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 8: a separate vote on homeland security, and trickly, a lot
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 8: of Republicans wanted that too, where you know, we can
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 8: vote for homeland security but not necessarily vote for some
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 8: of the other portions of the funding bill.
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 1: Right, we'll continue with Congress from Warren Davison, Yeah, where
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 1: are those Epstein files? Plus a cool idea, I think
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 1: US Treasury Department Trump accounts now in effect and they
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 1: sound like a good idea to mean we'll see a
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 1: Congresman David fin eighteen if you have Kersey the talk
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: totation Brian Thomas, the Congressman Warren Davidson, appreciate him coming
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 1: on the program. Oh real quick. One of my listeners
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 1: went over the CDP app the self deportation app Apparently
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: now they get twenty six hundred dollars if they self
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 1: deport So the money's gone up, So dangling Carrott has
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 1: gotten a little bit larger. Thank you, Eric, and moving
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 1: over where the hell of the Epstein files? Congressman Davidson,
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 1: Is this topic ever gonna go away?
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 8: I really don't think so. I mean, I think we'll
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 8: find out about the Epstein files about the same pace
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 8: that we found out about JFK. I knew you're going
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 8: to be even then it's redacted and missing.
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was worried you're going to say that. And
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 1: if this only gets worse by way of optics, I mean,
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 1: I'm not saying something you haven't heard a million times
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 1: from a million different people anymore. But the one to
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: eighty by Trump himself, the fact that the Democrats had
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 1: these documents for the whole term of the Biden administration
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 1: didn't lift the finger in fact, argued against releasing them.
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 1: I mean, this, this is just I don't know, it's
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 1: just inexplicable. Which feeds this whole conspiracy theories or feeds
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 1: legitimate theories about these documents, must be pretty darn damning
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 1: to someone or a whole bunch of people such that
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 1: what the government's going to shut down, We're all gonna
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 1: have some sort of existential crisis over the vast number
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 1: of people that were involved with this pervert. I don't
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 1: know what to make of it. It does not make
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 1: any sense, Congressman.
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 8: Now, I think, Look, I think the biggest, biggest, most
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 8: likely scenario is there's there's intelligence involved the personnel. And yeah,
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 8: I think everybody knows Epstein wasn't like a free agent.
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 8: He was directed and employed by intelligence agencies most likely,
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 8: and unfortunately it might view you know, one or more
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 8: of our three Letter agencies that either contracted him or
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 8: maybe even set him on his tours. It certainly seems
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 8: like that he was affiliated with Israel, one of our
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 8: close allies. And I think there's a lot of concern
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 8: this will undermine a lot of things, not just the
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 8: people that committed crimes here. I don't know that that's true,
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 8: But how are you going to end this speculation without
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 8: releasing everything which is now the law, and releasing it
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 8: in an unredacted form, which is also the law. They're
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 8: not like exclusions where you can redact things. But that's
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 8: what Mandi's doing. They have at leased tons of documents,
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 8: so we keep knowing more and more, but we you know,
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 8: they're not going to go to trial on virtually anything.
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 8: It seems they reach settlements with a lot of these women,
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 8: and you know, therefore it's hard to prosecute because you
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 8: don't have witness testimony. So these are hard cases to
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 8: try given the settlement agreements. And then the discovery just
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 8: doesn't want to be allowed to happen so that the
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 8: government's sources and methods are kept private.
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 1: Well, again you point out the law of the land
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 1: that the documents must be by Oh, that's right, last December.
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: But come what may, Yeah, there maybe there won't be
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: prosecutions because of settlement agreements. Maybe statute of limitations have
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 1: been passed. Maybe government agencies are identified having involvement with Epstein.
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 1: You know, let the chips fall where they may, but
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 1: the documents must be produced, says the law signed in
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 1: by Donald Trump. I'm sorry that there's complications related to
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 1: it or we may not get perhaps what we individually
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 1: want or hope from it. So what let us have
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 1: the documents, says Brian Thomas.
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 8: Anyway, one hundred percent agree, I mean, and that's the
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 8: way overwhelmingly we voted. I mean I voted that way,
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 8: and so did almost everyone else. And I think that's
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 8: where the sentiment of the public is. And let's say
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 8: there was you know, some evidence that look, I mean,
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 8: obviously terrible things happen, and you know, it looks like
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 8: maybe it was used to leverage people for blackmail without
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 8: the terrible things. You don't have leverage for blackmail, yep.
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 8: But you're not supposed to be the person running the op.
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 8: And if our agencies have it off course and done that,
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 8: well then they need reformed and people need to be
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 8: held accountable for it. And that's why we passed the law.
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 8: So the question is, is Bondy gonna do it? And
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 8: since she isn't doing it, what are we going to
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 8: do about it? And that was where like to me,
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 8: it was an easy not vote on the CG Criminal
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 8: Justice Funding Bill because not only am I frustrated with
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 8: the Department of Justice, but the judiciary branch also didn't
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 8: get significant reform. So you know, these guys are out
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 8: of control, and we can just keep cutting the checks
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 8: and we hold hearings and complain about it. We can't
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 8: put people in jail and Congress, but we can cut
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 8: checks or no checks.
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: That is all right, real quick here, Congress, Moore and Davis.
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: Is one more topic. And I'm excited about this because
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 1: it's going to get young people involved in the understanding
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 1: of what exactly the beauty or how exactly the beauty
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 1: of compound interest rate works to their advantage. These so
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 1: called Trump accounts a thousand dollars for every child born
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 1: between January last year and December thirty firth of a
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 1: first of twenty twenty eight gets a thousand dollars contribution
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 1: from the Treasury goes into account they cannot access until
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 1: they're eighteen. But also a bunch of opportunities for philanthropists,
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 1: family members, and others to donate to those accounts, and
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 1: just the one thousand dollars alone. If you don't, they
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 1: can't touch you. But if they leave it alone and
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 1: they keep it until they retire, if historical rates continue,
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 1: that's going to turn into a half a million dollars
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: by retirement age. Kids need to know this, and that's
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 1: why I think this is a great idea. What's your
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: take on these?
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, you know, generally the markets outperformed the
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 8: rate of inflation. And you know we're looking at a
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 8: period right now where you know, the markets are going up.
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 8: Gold's going up in part because the money is getting wrecked,
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 8: right so, and I think Peter Shift said it, well,
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 8: the problem isn't that the government might shut down the problems.
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 8: The government's going to keep operating massive deficits and it's
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 8: going to keep undermining the dollar. So that's where you
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 8: see gold soaring, and you know there's the other assets
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 8: soaring too. You know, top level stocks are doing really
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 8: well because people want to protect the value of their
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 8: money and that's the job of the Federal Reserve. They're
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 8: not doing it well at all. So too late now,
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 8: as Trump, President Trump calls them, it really drove a
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 8: lot of this saying well, it's not going to cause inflation,
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 8: and then saying, oh, well, it might cause inflation, but
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 8: it'll be transitory. Well we're still in that transitory phase.
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 8: It's going in the right direction with the new leadership
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 8: in Washington, d C. But the Trump account is a
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 8: good way to hedge against it. And it's great that
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 8: young people are going to be able to learn that
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 8: lesson in a way that hasn't been taught well well.
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 1: And speaking of philanthropists, a lot of them stepped up
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 1: and already said they're going to be donating to these
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 1: accounts as well. So not just the check from the Treasury,
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 1: but maybe you get a check from some other big
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 1: multinational corporation to go along with it marketing for them.
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 1: So Congressman Warren Davidson, thank you for your participation on
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 1: the Morning show. This morning. Will anxiously await the inevitable
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 1: government shutdown, which appears like it's gonna come. Even if
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 1: it's short lived, I have a feeling we'll be able
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 1: to manage through it. Congressman David's in best of health
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 1: and thank you for all the work that you do
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 1: on behalf of not just your constituents, but the American
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 1: people generally.
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 8: It's definitely an honor. Thank you, Brian, God bless you
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 8: and all your listeners.
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 1: We'll talk soon, I hope seven twenty five. Right now,
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 1: stick around Christopher Smithman late addition to the Rundown Eight
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 1: women listening audience and personal friend of mine, Christopher Smithman,
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 1: welcome back, man. It's good to hear from you, man.
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 12: It's good to hear your voice. Brian Well, I tell
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 12: you the subject matter of city hall weighing in on
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 12: what's going on in Minnesota as it relates to ICE.
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, they're joining a lawsuit against ICE's activities Minnesota
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 1: and Minneapolis, Saint Paul, other cities have filed this lawsuit
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 1: seeking to curb ICE activities, and so City of Cincinnati,
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 1: I guess felt it necessary join in the fund and
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 1: join in the lawsuit. So we are a sanctuary city
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 1: City of Cincinnati is, isn't it? Christopher, Yeah, we are.
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 12: And now all I'll say is that you know, this
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 12: is just an underscoring of the mayor and this council
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 12: really just not liking law enforcement in general. I think
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 12: it's important to emphasize that ICE is focused on the
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 12: worst of the worst. They're focused on people who have
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 12: raped people, murdered them, robbed them, killed them in car accidents.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 12: They're going after the worst of the worst. I mean,
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 12: it's amazing that people are blowing whistles and literally ICE
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 12: is taking out a rapist. Like, I don't get where
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 12: the Democratic Party is going right now, you know. And
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 12: I saw that second video where they showed that American
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 12: citizen I think it was a week earlier, kicking the
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 12: vehicle of an ICE agent, knocking out his back lights,
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 12: spitting on the car, and I think it's like, this
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 12: is really, this is really a message of what this
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 12: guy was doing. He was agitating those ICE officers, not
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 12: just sitting there doing a peaceful protest. But I don't
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 12: understand where city council is going. And then I'm getting
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 12: text messages saying in the city of Cincinnati, parents, we
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 12: need you to bring your shovels. We need you to
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 12: dig us out. We need you to come and shovel
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 12: the snow at our schools. I mean, the roads in
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 12: Cincinnati still are not clear. They need to do a
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 12: lot more work there. Right. The budget is a mess.
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 12: We need to do work there. Right. We have issues
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 12: related to potholes that are still real. I'm just trying
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 12: to figure out why this council for the last two weeks,
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 12: the resolution they passed on ICE. Now, what you're sharing
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 12: with me about joining into a lawsuit in a different municipality.
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 12: This city council is just completely distracted. Brian Thomas, this
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 12: is just what I see.
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 1: Well, that's their their liberal virtue signaling then to join
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 1: in the fund. They're not gonna let everybody, all these
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 1: other left wing liberal cities go without Cincinnati being a
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 1: part of it. I don't know this, this this doesn't
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 1: I guess my point is it doesn't shock me. I mean,
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 1: this is very consistent with the Pervoll administration of the
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 1: current council member makeup. I mean we've been at them
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 1: talking about this kind of thing for a long time,
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 1: where there are various proclamations and resolutions and now of
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 1: course expending resources I'm sure money monetary resources to get
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 1: engaged in a lawsuit with the federal government.
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 12: Well, I want to try to make it make a
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 12: little sense. What we see here is a mayor who's
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 12: in his last four years and he is thinking about
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 12: where he's going to land, where he's going to pivot,
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 12: how he's going to get there, and so this this
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 12: virtue announcements that are coming from there are in my opinion,
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 12: are based on that. You know, don't be surprised to
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 12: hear him in two years say I'm running for Congress,
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 12: or you know, I'm running for Senate, or I'm trying
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 12: to do something. I'm trying to be a part of
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 12: some administration. He's trying to position himself for the next
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 12: gig at the expense of Cincinnati. So we talked about
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 12: this as we went into the last election. You know,
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 12: elections have consequences, as you know, Brian, and so I
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 12: just say, what you're going to see are nine members
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 12: of council, some who are termed out, some who aren't,
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 12: who are now going to start pivoting for their next jobs.
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 12: Where are we trying to go, where are we trying
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 12: to land?
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 3: What are we going to run for?
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 12: And they're talking to their base, making sure that their base,
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 12: which I'm saying the Democratic Party base has really lost.
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 12: They are so far left, but they need those people
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 12: in a primary. So in a May primary where you
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 12: have just Democrats, are just Republicans showing up, This is
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 12: where the most extreme rhetoric happens. That's what they're doing
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 12: right now. They're preparing for whatever primaries they're going to
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 12: do this year or next year.
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 1: Well, it's continue pause right now. Bring Christopher smothing back
• 1:28:08
  Speaker 1: to talk a little bit more. Are our local law
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 1: enforcement working with ICE? Working against Ice? Are we detaining
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 1: ICE criminals in the lock up for the ICE agents
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 1: to come up and pick them up when they've served
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 1: their time? More and other related topics with christ seven
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 1: thirty nine ififty five KR City Talk Station Brian Thomas
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 1: with Christopher Smithelman, former Vice mayor of the City of Cincinnati,
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 1: still stays on top of all matters relating to the city.
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 1: I see that, what was it a couple of last
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 1: week or the week before, since our council pass the
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 1: resolution urging federal law enforcement officers in Cincinnati to comply
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 1: with city policy which requires body cameras identification of mass
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 1: This is the kind of thing that Chucky Schumer's arguing
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 1: about needs to be incorporated into the spending bill or
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 1: we're going to get a government shutdown. So I'm not
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 1: sure how much control we have over ICE. I don't
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 1: even know if ICE has a separate standard when it
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 1: comes to compliance with you know, like use of force
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 1: policies in the city. But here we are, you know,
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 1: telling ICE how to do their job where we are.
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 1: But do we even help ICE? Are we one of them.
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 1: Are we like Minneapolis or Saint Paul, where you know
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 1: you've got someone who's a criminal, they've served their time
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 1: in prison, they are subject to a deportation order, but
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 1: that deportation order is ignored and that person's let out
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 1: into the community. Is that the way we operate here
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 1: is that Charmie mcguffey's policies relative toly lock up.
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 12: I think we need to hear from the sheriff. I
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 12: think the resolution was clear. You know, if we, as
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 12: you've indicated, if we've detained the criminal in the jail,
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 12: are we notifying ICE to come get them. I don't
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 12: know if the sheriff is cooperating. I think it's something
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 12: that we need to ask publicly. If any of her
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 12: spokes people are listening to this radio show, they should
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 12: call me in and clarify where the sheriff is on
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 12: this relates to the jail as a relations to the sheriffs.
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 12: I'd love to hear from the FOP president. What is
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 12: the direction to our to our chief. I wanted I
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 12: wanted to be clear on the record, is the police
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 12: Cincinnati Police Department cooperating with ICE as it relates to criminals?
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 12: I mean you and I are talking about criminals. We're not.
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 12: We're not talking about you know, people out here who
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 12: are getting up every day and going to work. We're
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 12: talking about people with guns, who are gang members, who
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 12: are robbing, menacing, raping our citizens. We want them out
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 12: of here. I just don't I don't know what the
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 12: protests are about. I don't understand it, Brian. But for me,
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 12: it's like this underlining current that we've been going through
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 12: within the Democratic Party of defunding the police, this notion
• 1:30:50
  Speaker 12: that we want to reimagine them. What is also interesting
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 12: for me as the texture of this politics is that
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 12: no one was protesting when other president, we're doing deportations.
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 1: Barack Obama. I read a quote from twenty ten, Baraco,
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 1: this is exactly the same policies of Barack Obama had
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 1: he was deporting and advocated for deporting any and all
• 1:31:13
  Speaker 1: illegal immigrants, even if they were the friendly people down
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 1: the street have been here for ten years, working away
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 1: and doing their job and participating to society. We're large. No,
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 1: they're out too, Barack Obama said, literally, Well, because it's
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 1: going to encourage others to come into the United States
• 1:31:28
  Speaker 1: knowing there aren't going to be repercussions for them entering
• 1:31:30
  Speaker 1: our country illegally. You know, That's what Barack Obama delivered
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 1: on He delivered historic deportations. Not a peep from the
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 1: left when that was going on. Nothing.
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 12: Why is it when you say that out loud it
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 12: makes Democrats mad? Like I'll tell a Democrat that and
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 12: they get agitated, like I'm like, what are you talking?
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 6: These are just facts, right?
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 12: The fact pattern is President Barack Obama deported more people
• 1:31:59
  Speaker 12: than President Trump, and he was very aggressive about it.
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 12: And as a matter of fact, he gave Tom Holman
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 12: at award at the White House where he hung the
• 1:32:11
  Speaker 12: medal around his neck, the guy who just was sent
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 12: to Minneapolis by Trump. President Barack Obama honored as doing
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 12: a great job in the relation to deportation. Am I exaggerating?
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 12: If you're a Democrat and you're listening to me, call
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 12: in and say what I'm saying, is it true? But
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 12: when you try to tell Democrats that this is what happened,
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 12: meaning Tom Holman right now was working with Barack Obama,
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 12: and Barack Obama then said, you did a great job.
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 12: I'm gonna give you the highest award I can give you.
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 12: From the White House or one of the highest awards.
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 12: You come to the White House, bring your family, and
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 12: I'm gonna put this big necklace around your neck. This
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 12: is what happened. Why now are they so angry when
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 12: they didn't protest any of that? And the other thing
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 12: I think that gets to go Brian Thomas of I
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 12: think conservatives, which I agree with here, is they're victims
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 12: that have been murdered, young girls who've been murdered and raped,
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 12: and the Democrats have had no protests. There's no no.
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 12: I'm really mad on CNN, I'm really mad on MSNBC
• 1:33:21
  Speaker 12: about what happened. These are African American girls, These are
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 12: men who are African American. These are white females, grown women.
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 12: These are a woman jogging in the park, or whether
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 12: this is a little girl who's murdered and take it
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 12: out of her house. Why don't the Democrats ever speak
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 12: out about those victims? Brian Thomas, this is what frustrates
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 12: all of us as we're watching these protests, and now
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 12: I understand why they're saying, maybe this representative made up
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 12: this incident that happened to her. I hope she didn't,
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 12: you know, I.
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 1: Hope you are not.
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 12: Yeah, hoping that that. I'm hoping by the time I
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 12: get to Monday that that is not what has occurred here.
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 12: Meaning I've sent my prayers out to the to the
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 12: representative because I don't want that to happen to anybody.
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 12: But when you look at what when you look at
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 12: what people are saying out there, they're not even believing
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 12: that what happened there was even true.
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you know, I just have to interject a
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 1: point on literally any news topic anymore that comes across
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 1: the wire, someone's always going to make up something or
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 1: point to suspicion swirling around the activity, like this one.
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 1: The guy squirts a cider vinegar on her. People freak out,
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, it's an attack on ilian Omar. Then
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 1: people start saying, no, no, that was a plant designed
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 1: to make her look really good. Well, I don't know
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 1: the answer to that question. I'm with I'm in your camp.
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 1: I hope she had nothing to do with it, and
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 1: I hope people stop doing things like that. But it's
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 1: the day of the Internet, you know, Christopher, You're gonna
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 1: get people making stuff up even if they don't have
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 1: any facts to hang their hat on.
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 12: Now, before we go. I want to pivot back because
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 12: I saw your energy level jump and my energy level
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 12: jumps too, because I'm wondering where the Democrats were when
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 12: President Barack Obama was aggressively doing deportations. And when we
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 12: say aggressively, we're talking five to six million people were
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 12: thrown out of this country during that. And then the
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 12: same thing with President Clinton. I mean in his addresses,
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 12: you know, I'm talking about his congressional addresses, he would
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 12: say we've got to deal with deportations. Hillary Clinton would
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 12: say the same things. All of them are Senator Schumer,
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 12: same thing. It's not just Barack Obama, all of these
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 12: Democrats in this period of time, we're saying, we've got
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 12: to make sure that those who come to our country
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 12: illegally and those specifically who mean us harm or due harm,
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 12: we want to deport them. To any Democrat listening to me,
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 12: if I am telling a lie, if I am exaggerating,
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 12: when I hang up call and set the record straight
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 12: with Brian, because I don't understand, I want to hear
• 1:36:09
  Speaker 12: from the Democrat, how in their minds are they putting
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 12: out like, wow, we're going to protest now. When Ice
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 12: was doing the exact same thing for Clinton, for Bush,
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 12: for Obama, for all of them.
• 1:36:22
  Speaker 1: Well, I think it's a sign of Trump derangement syndrome.
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 1: Not to rely on that, but they are completely crazy
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 1: over this issue, and it's got to be a distraction
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 1: away from other things. I think the reason Barack Obama
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 1: embraced widespread deportation is because it is an issue that
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 1: the American people embraced. You want to get votes, you
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 1: got to be on that side of the ledger. What
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 1: do we learn from Biden's administration and open border and
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 1: not removing people. I guess makes people angry enough that
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 1: they're going to vote for evil Orange men and put
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 1: him back in for a second term. Why because he
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 1: campaigned on that very issue, and look what happened. We
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 1: recently established security on our border, and we go back
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 1: to as of right now, Barack Obama's policies, if you
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 1: want to be that broad, these not going just after criminals.
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 1: He's going after anybody. Fine, that's what Barack Obama did.
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 1: So let's say that. So Trump is now where Obama
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 1: was back in twenty ten, and now it's a bad
• 1:37:14
  Speaker 1: thing doing what Obama did. So I don't know though,
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 1: because Trump won largely on immigration, that the American people's
• 1:37:24
  Speaker 1: mindset or position on deportation has changed. These viral videos
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 1: and these mass protests want to make everyone think that
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 1: it's a different landscape. And it does have some you know,
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 1: representatives in Congress a little worried that maybe we're going
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 1: to lose the election of November because we are being
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 1: strong on immigration. Many people are thinking, no, that's not
• 1:37:44
  Speaker 1: the case. People still want strong immigration enforcement. I don't
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 1: know where we are, Christopher, but they certainly look I
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 1: don't know, psychotic on some level, given the back and
• 1:37:54
  Speaker 1: forth nature of their position.
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 12: Well, we just have to ask ourselves this question. When
• 1:37:59
  Speaker 12: President Barack Obama was the president, right, This is not
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 12: me pounding on his presidency. This is just saying facts.
• 1:38:07
  Speaker 12: There were people who lost their lives. Ice engaged them,
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 12: and there were people who died, now all of them.
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 12: And there was even under President Barack Obama he targeted
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 12: with a drone an American on foreign soil and did
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 12: an assassination while he was the president. This is not
• 1:38:25
  Speaker 12: me poo pooing on President Barack Obama. I'm just saying
• 1:38:29
  Speaker 12: these facts. I do not understand when I talk to
• 1:38:32
  Speaker 12: Democrats right, who are saying I'm a part of the
• 1:38:35
  Speaker 12: resistance and I say these things to them, Why don't
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 12: they just say, yes, that's true, Yes, that's a fact
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 12: that did happen. What is wrong with them submitting to
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 12: the fact pattern. I don't get it. It's like almost
• 1:38:47
  Speaker 12: truth is relative. There really isn't a truth, and my
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 12: truth is what it is, it's what I say it is. No,
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 12: that's not what happened. Tom Homan, the guy right now
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 12: who is working directly with President Trump, was a key
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 12: person working with President Barack Obama when he gave him
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 12: the award. These are just these are just facts, Brian Thomas.
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 12: And I'm saying I when you tell Democrats these things,
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 12: and I'm gonna keep coming back because people are turning
• 1:39:15
  Speaker 12: on their radios at different times. When you go back
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 12: and you try to talk to Democrats about this, they
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 12: never call in. They never say what you're saying it's true.
• 1:39:23
  Speaker 12: And by the way, on my timeline on X, I
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 12: try to post where Senator Schumer said what his positions
• 1:39:31
  Speaker 12: were previously about Ice or a President Barack Obama or
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 12: a President Clinton or President Bush. All of them Democrats
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 12: and Republicans held the same position around getting criminals who
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 12: are in our country illegally out, I would say one day,
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 12: because I want to clarify, I am not for deporting dreamers.
• 1:39:53
  Speaker 12: I am not for just randomly grabbing people and throwing
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 12: them out of the country, people who are here working.
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 12: It's not where I am right. So I'm talking about
• 1:40:02
  Speaker 12: focusing on absolute criminals. But this is what I would
• 1:40:05
  Speaker 12: never say. I would never say two different things real quick.
• 1:40:08
  Speaker 12: I would say I would never say somebody who came
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 12: into our country illegally didn't do something illegal. The other
• 1:40:15
  Speaker 12: thing I also wouldn't say is if there's a raid
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 12: on a party which has been happening, and you're at
• 1:40:21
  Speaker 12: that party. You're not on the list, but you're at
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 12: the party, right and in that party you've got gang members.
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 12: All of you are going to be deported. Meaning who
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 12: you hang around with and what you're doing as a
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 12: visitor in our country matters. Conducts yourself like you're a
• 1:40:38
  Speaker 12: visitor and a contributing person to our society, and you
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 12: most likely will have no problems with ice, the police
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 12: or anybody. They're going after criminals. And I don't understand
• 1:40:48
  Speaker 12: why Democrats are blowing a.
• 1:40:49
  Speaker 1: Whistle choose your friends wisely. Christopher Smith Wan, Well, have
• 1:40:52
  Speaker 1: you back on on Monday if I've here, if you
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 1: have kerr CEV talk station. Happy Friday Eve. I'm been
• 1:40:59
  Speaker 1: excited about this time all morning. I noticed on the
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 1: rundown my guest this time. He's on the phone right now,
• 1:41:04

• 1:41:14
  Speaker 1: conducted and managed extremely sensitive clandestine operations around the globe
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 1: for the US government overseas postings multiple countries, Asia and

  Speaker 1: the Middle East. Served as an on active duty in
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 1: the US Marine Corps as an infustry officer, and thank
• 1:41:27
  Speaker 1: you for your service to our country, Sir, attaining the

  Speaker 1: grade of Captain. He retired from the CIA, found a
• 1:41:31
  Speaker 1: global intelligence and risk mitigation consulting company where he assists
• 1:41:35
  Speaker 1: clients and achieving strategic and tactical objectives in high pressure
• 1:41:38
  Speaker 1: environ environments under complex circumstances which're going to be talking
• 1:41:41
  Speaker 1: about right now. Welcome to the fifty five Case Morning Show.
• 1:41:44
  Speaker 1: Tim Beard, author of Look Twice, Your Guide to Staying
• 1:41:48
  Speaker 1: Safe in an Unsafe World, Volume one. Tim good to
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 1: hear from you today.
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 2: Thanks so much, Prying for having me on. I appreciate
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 2: the opportunity.
• 1:41:56
  Speaker 1: Timing couldn't be better in terms of societal issues going
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 1: on sat as they may. But I was at the
• 1:42:00
  Speaker 1: eye doctor yesterday and I'm sitting in the office little
• 1:42:03
  Speaker 1: you know, where they put you, and they wait for
• 1:42:05
  Speaker 1: the doctor to come in. I look up and there's
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 1: one of those door braces hanging on the wall in
• 1:42:09
  Speaker 1: cas thees gunfire in the hallway. You slide that brace in,
• 1:42:12
  Speaker 1: you lock it in place so they can't get the
• 1:42:14
  Speaker 1: door in. I'm looking at that, and I'm going, Okay,
• 1:42:17
  Speaker 1: I understand the justification for it, but what a sorry
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 1: commentary on life that we even need those. But apparently
• 1:42:24
  Speaker 1: my eye doctor's clinic talk to you, that is something
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 1: you might want to have in place because you've prepared.
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 1: Isn't that the basis of look twice, like, measure twice,
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 1: cut once, look twice, sir?
• 1:42:36
  Speaker 6: It is.
• 1:42:37
  Speaker 2: And that's the thing first off I want to say
• 1:42:39
  Speaker 2: to your audience is security is not hard. They can
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 2: do this, but it comes to doing the fundamentals, the basics,
• 1:42:47
  Speaker 2: the right stuff every time. And it comes to planning
• 1:42:50
  Speaker 2: and preparation before something happens. That's how the work that
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 2: I did, for example, before I retired from the agency.
• 1:42:57
  Speaker 2: When you're out doing the work, you have to plan
• 1:43:00
  Speaker 2: and plan and plan because something's going to go wrong.
• 1:43:03
  Speaker 2: But at least then you have a plan to fall
• 1:43:05
  Speaker 2: back on so you can adjust. And I cover a
• 1:43:08
  Speaker 2: lot of that in the book series. There's actually three books.
• 1:43:10
  Speaker 2: The first one's out now.
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was getting really asking about volumes two and three.
• 1:43:13
  Speaker 1: We'll wait for those. But in the initiation, of course,
• 1:43:16
  Speaker 1: my instinct you break it down into environments like, for example,
• 1:43:19
  Speaker 1: safe at home and work. What you need to prepare
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 1: for at home probably a lot different than if you're
• 1:43:24
  Speaker 1: going out to the supermarket, the grocery store, or you're traveling.
• 1:43:27
  Speaker 1: So let's start with what some of the points you
• 1:43:30
  Speaker 1: bring up in how to stay safe at work? We need,
• 1:43:33
  Speaker 1: I guess we need to be first aware of the
• 1:43:35
  Speaker 1: concept that we need to think about our safety and
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 1: first and foremost. I think that may be the biggest challenge.
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 1: Although in the home and work, what are some vulnerabilities
• 1:43:43
  Speaker 1: that my listeners should be focused on.
• 1:43:46
  Speaker 2: Well, for example, with the workplace, you want to know
• 1:43:49
  Speaker 2: what you got. So in the book, I talk about
• 1:43:53
  Speaker 2: assessing your workplace. You know, do you have a security
• 1:43:56
  Speaker 2: force there, what's the nature of the industry? Do you
• 1:43:59
  Speaker 2: have clients come to your workplace? Or if a visitor
• 1:44:02
  Speaker 2: shows up? Is that of a warning sign right there?
• 1:44:04
  Speaker 2: Nobody's supposed to be coming here? People don't, They don't
• 1:44:08
  Speaker 2: visit here. If if somebody is coming, what is you
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 2: know is it? Do you sell choice, do you sell
• 1:44:13
  Speaker 2: children's toys or are you selling pharmaceuticals? What is the
• 1:44:17
  Speaker 2: nature of the business. That's going to be an important
• 1:44:21
  Speaker 2: piece for assessing that. So that's one thing. The other
• 1:44:24
  Speaker 2: thing too, is that if you do have a problem,
• 1:44:26
  Speaker 2: you want to plan ahead while you're calm, while you
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 2: don't have adrenaline pouring through your body and you start
• 1:44:33
  Speaker 2: making bad decisions. So the standard one that we use,
• 1:44:37
  Speaker 2: which DHS pushes is run, hide, fight. So if something
• 1:44:41
  Speaker 2: does happen, you want to plan for this in advance.
• 1:44:45
  Speaker 2: You need to know where you're going to run to.
• 1:44:46
  Speaker 2: That's the first thing you want to do. You want
• 1:44:47
  Speaker 2: to get away where you're going to run to. You
• 1:44:50
  Speaker 2: want to plan and say I'm going to run down
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 2: the street there I'm going to run over here, I'm
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 2: going to keep going until I'm out of the way,
• 1:44:57
  Speaker 2: until I'm out of where I'm not going to be observed,
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 2: but also where I'm not going to be in the
• 1:45:01
  Speaker 2: line of gunfire. So you want to be behind a building,
• 1:45:05
  Speaker 2: behind a very thick wall, and I'm not talking drywall.
• 1:45:08
  Speaker 2: I'm talking concrete, thick concrete. The second piece of that
• 1:45:12
  Speaker 2: is hide. If for some reason you can't get away,
• 1:45:15
  Speaker 2: you can't run, which is certainly what you want to do,
• 1:45:18
  Speaker 2: then you need to hide. Well. Most people, as a kid,
• 1:45:22
  Speaker 2: they played the you know, hide and seek. Well, while
• 1:45:25
  Speaker 2: you're calm, while you're thinking clearly, find three, four or
• 1:45:29
  Speaker 2: five really really good places that you can hide, that
• 1:45:33
  Speaker 2: you can get to in your workplace, because then you're
• 1:45:36
  Speaker 2: less inclined to make errors. You're going to choose pretty
• 1:45:39
  Speaker 2: bad spots if you're stressed out and the adrenaline's pouring
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 2: through your body and you're you know, facing a difficult situation.
• 1:45:46
  Speaker 2: So figure those places out in advance. Nowhere you're going
• 1:45:49
  Speaker 2: to go. It's it's getting the mindset right. And then,
• 1:45:53
  Speaker 2: of course, if you have to and no one wants
• 1:45:56
  Speaker 2: to have to do this, if you have to fight,
• 1:45:58
  Speaker 2: fight like your life depends on it, and that would
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 2: be the last option. That's something you can do for work.
• 1:46:05
  Speaker 1: All right, now, considering you're talking about looking place and
• 1:46:08
  Speaker 1: being prepared and being safe, if you are stuck with
• 1:46:10
  Speaker 1: that option, does that also not require some advanced preparation?
• 1:46:14
  Speaker 1: Can you even fight? How will you fight? If you're
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 1: in a desperate situation. I appreciate you're probably going to
• 1:46:19
  Speaker 1: resort to whatever you got around you, but if you
• 1:46:21
  Speaker 1: think ahead of time, me being a support of the
• 1:46:23
  Speaker 1: Second Amendment and the owner of multiple firearms, I know
• 1:46:25
  Speaker 1: where I'm going to do and what I'm going to
• 1:46:27
  Speaker 1: do in terms of fighting back. I'm prepared to do that.
• 1:46:29
  Speaker 1: But not everybody's in that position, sir, Yeah, and that
• 1:46:33
  Speaker 1: is tough.
• 1:46:34
  Speaker 6: I know.
• 1:46:35
  Speaker 2: I've worked, as you mentioned, in the public and private sectors.
• 1:46:38
  Speaker 2: Some of the private sector places I consulted in the
• 1:46:40
  Speaker 2: energy industry in Texas after I retired, and even though
• 1:46:43
  Speaker 2: it was Texas, there were a lot of places where
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 2: firearms were strictly prohibited from even the property. You could
• 1:46:50
  Speaker 2: not have that there. I'm a big Second Amendment guy
• 1:46:52
  Speaker 2: as well, having don a marine, but you can't have
• 1:46:55
  Speaker 2: firearm certain places. A lot of workplaces, even if they
• 1:46:58
  Speaker 2: are pro Second Amendment that you leave it in your car,
• 1:47:01
  Speaker 2: they won't let you bring it into the workplace. And
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 2: so that's where you have to as I said, and initially,
• 1:47:06
  Speaker 2: you have to know what kind of a security force
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 2: is present. There is a security force if you even
• 1:47:11
  Speaker 2: have one at your company. Are they carrying radios, which
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 2: means they're there for insurance compliance, They're there to observe
• 1:47:19
  Speaker 2: and report, or are they carrying firearms? And are they
• 1:47:24
  Speaker 2: you know they would be trained and licensed by the state,
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 2: But are you going to put your life in their hands?
• 1:47:29
  Speaker 2: Those are things where you want to know in advance
• 1:47:32
  Speaker 2: what you're looking at so you don't get surprised when
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 2: the moment of truth comes.
• 1:47:36
  Speaker 1: Tim Beard, the author of the book we're talking about,
• 1:47:38
  Speaker 1: look twice. Your guide is Staying Safe in an Unsafe World,
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 1: Volume one. You know, I always struggle with that. If
• 1:47:44
  Speaker 1: your employer says you are prohibited from bringing a firearm
• 1:47:46
  Speaker 1: into work, it seems to me as a lawyer, they
• 1:47:49
  Speaker 1: must take on the role of guaranteeing your safety because
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 1: they've taken away the first and best choice for many people,
• 1:47:56
  Speaker 1: the great equalizer. And if you get crazy. He's coming
• 1:47:59
  Speaker 1: into the room, as we know can happen from time
• 1:48:01
  Speaker 1: to time, hence the purpose of your book. And they
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 1: don't provide you adequate security to repel those crazies. They
• 1:48:06
  Speaker 1: have put you in a I think an unsupportable positions.
• 1:48:12
  Speaker 2: And there's a lot of legal discussion about that. I
• 1:48:14
  Speaker 2: am not an attorney like you are, but there has
• 1:48:17
  Speaker 2: been a lot of discussion about is that is the
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 2: company liable if they have to provide a safe environment
• 1:48:23
  Speaker 2: for you to work in. At one point I want
• 1:48:25
  Speaker 2: to make on that too. When we talk about getting
• 1:48:27
  Speaker 2: ahead of this stuff, some people say, well, my workplace
• 1:48:30
  Speaker 2: isn't really a problem. But what happens is people bring
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 2: problems from home into their workplace. For example, say they
• 1:48:39
  Speaker 2: have a partner and they're separated there strange from them.
• 1:48:43
  Speaker 2: The partner is going to know that they're at work.
• 1:48:46
  Speaker 2: That's a place they can find them. And this is
• 1:48:48
  Speaker 2: why the company needs to be aware of this in
• 1:48:51
  Speaker 2: advance and say hey, we don't allow outside visitors. If
• 1:48:54
  Speaker 2: that partner shows up and says, hey, I just want
• 1:48:57
  Speaker 2: to talk to them, one, you don't know if they
• 1:49:00
  Speaker 2: have a weapon on them too. A lot of times
• 1:49:02
  Speaker 2: that may have been their intention when they came there,
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 2: but that can degrade because emotions get involved, and if
• 1:49:08
  Speaker 2: the person is predisposed to violence, they may become violent
• 1:49:12
  Speaker 2: with the person they want to talk to and other
• 1:49:14
  Speaker 2: collateral folks around that. That's a problem and that's why
• 1:49:18
  Speaker 2: a lot of times you don't accept visitors at work. Yeah,
• 1:49:21
  Speaker 2: you know, keep those problems at home. People don't realize
• 1:49:25
  Speaker 2: that it's it's something that it can also be the
• 1:49:27
  Speaker 2: problem employee. The employee that after something happens, everyone knows
• 1:49:32
  Speaker 2: it's been reported to HR fifty times and they haven't
• 1:49:35
  Speaker 2: done anything about it. Most companies they know somebody in
• 1:49:39
  Speaker 2: the company that has been difficult, and just you need
• 1:49:43
  Speaker 2: to keep If you see something, you need to keep
• 1:49:46
  Speaker 2: reporting that. Otherwise they'll say, well, there was no data,
• 1:49:49
  Speaker 2: there was nothing we could do about it because no
• 1:49:51
  Speaker 2: one ever said anything.
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 6: These are the little.
• 1:49:54
  Speaker 2: Things about getting ahead of the problems that's throughout the book.
• 1:49:59
  Speaker 2: One of the major themes I have is about mitigating risk.
• 1:50:02
  Speaker 2: And the term I used avoid avoid Avoid sounds simple,
• 1:50:06
  Speaker 2: but if you apply those concepts it will really help.
• 1:50:09
  Speaker 1: It'll help, but maybe not work in all circumstances. I'm
• 1:50:12
  Speaker 1: chuckling a little bit. Tim Beard, author of Look Twice,
• 1:50:15
  Speaker 1: Volume one, because you do have a full section on
• 1:50:18
  Speaker 1: transportation awareness. One of the subject matters you deal with
• 1:50:21
  Speaker 1: his road rage. I personally had to experience the only
• 1:50:23
  Speaker 1: time I ever had to pull up my concealed carry
• 1:50:25
  Speaker 1: that I thought it was actually going to have to
• 1:50:26
  Speaker 1: use it. This guy, who ultimately turned out to have
• 1:50:29
  Speaker 1: been whacked out on heroin and fentanyl or heroin and
• 1:50:32
  Speaker 1: meth amphetamine to think it was literally tried to kill me.
• 1:50:34
  Speaker 1: I'm with his truck on the highway and I tried
• 1:50:37
  Speaker 1: to get out of the way I was up. I
• 1:50:39
  Speaker 1: zipped up to one hundred and twenty miles an hour
• 1:50:41
  Speaker 1: trying to escape him, and every time I ended up
• 1:50:43
  Speaker 1: running into traffic, he pit maneuvered me in an on ramp,
• 1:50:47
  Speaker 1: tried he rammed me multiple times. He clearly wanted to
• 1:50:49
  Speaker 1: kill me. So finally, when my car became disabled, you know,
• 1:50:52
  Speaker 1: I had my gun in my hand, opened the car door.
• 1:50:54
  Speaker 1: I'm ready for him to being attacking me, and he
• 1:50:56
  Speaker 1: had ended up walking across the street. But there I
• 1:50:59
  Speaker 1: was stuck in that very situation. I was prepared because
• 1:51:02
  Speaker 1: I had a gun. What do you think average run
• 1:51:05
  Speaker 1: of the mill every day people should be thinking about
• 1:51:06
  Speaker 1: when it comes to dealing with issues of driving or
• 1:51:09
  Speaker 1: riding on subways.
• 1:51:10
  Speaker 2: Even sure, and then let me mention Brian, there were
• 1:51:13
  Speaker 2: a couple of things you mentioned there that I would
• 1:51:16
  Speaker 2: choose to do differently. When you said your speed's kept
• 1:51:18
  Speaker 2: going higher and higher than what you end up doing,
• 1:51:21
  Speaker 2: is you run the risk of causing additional problems. Yeah,
• 1:51:25
  Speaker 2: and you could hit somebody or something. What I would
• 1:51:27
  Speaker 2: tend to do, I would reduce my speed, but you
• 1:51:30
  Speaker 2: got to keep moving.
• 1:51:31
  Speaker 1: I started, I started with that. I cut out a
• 1:51:34
  Speaker 1: lot of the details. I started with that approach, and
• 1:51:37
  Speaker 1: he got in front of me. He wouldn't let me proceed,
• 1:51:38
  Speaker 1: and I figured he was going to try to come
• 1:51:40
  Speaker 1: out of his truck and kill me. I drive a little,
• 1:51:42
  Speaker 1: tiny two seater sports car. He was in a big
• 1:51:44
  Speaker 1: King cab F three point fifty or something. So I
• 1:51:48
  Speaker 1: was outgun, outsized, and of course dealing with traffic editions.
• 1:51:51
  Speaker 1: But there I was presented with a situation where I
• 1:51:55
  Speaker 1: was faced with that you know, eminent apprehension of grievous
• 1:51:58
  Speaker 1: bodily harm. So if I read the book, maybe be
• 1:52:00
  Speaker 1: able to look approach it differently. But that's the kind
• 1:52:02
  Speaker 1: of thing that Tim wants you to think about. Tim
• 1:52:04
  Speaker 1: Beard name of the book, Look Twice Your Guide to
• 1:52:06
  Speaker 1: Staying Safe in an Unsafe World. Volume one, what's going
• 1:52:09
  Speaker 1: to be attacked? In Volumes two and three when they
• 1:52:11
  Speaker 1: come out, Tim real quick.
• 1:52:14
  Speaker 2: Volume two covers Look Twice Your Guide is Staying Safe
• 1:52:17
  Speaker 2: with tech, travel and natural disasters. I have a big
• 1:52:20
  Speaker 2: section in there about safe tech. I talk about fraud,
• 1:52:24
  Speaker 2: trud prevention, business travel, vacation travel, learning a new city.
• 1:52:28
  Speaker 2: When you go to a new place, how do you
• 1:52:30
  Speaker 2: tackle that city pretty quickly? Look Twice. The third volume,
• 1:52:34
  Speaker 2: Look Twice Your Guide when danger comes to you at
• 1:52:37
  Speaker 2: home and overseas. And that one I talk about civil
• 1:52:40
  Speaker 2: unrest and how to get you and your loved ones
• 1:52:42
  Speaker 2: out of harm's way. I talk about that one's going
• 1:52:46
  Speaker 2: to be very very important right now. Self Defense. I
• 1:52:50
  Speaker 2: talk about what happens when you get cornered. You'll certainly
• 1:52:53
  Speaker 2: appreciate that portion because I talk about weapons selection. I
• 1:52:56
  Speaker 2: talk about a bunch of different things involving self defense.
• 1:53:00
  Speaker 2: A little chapter on medical response because a lot of
• 1:53:03
  Speaker 2: people don't think about that, but it's important. And then
• 1:53:06
  Speaker 2: overseas travel and letting you have a major section on
• 1:53:08

  Speaker 1: dispensing medicine in the form of Jewish penicillin chicken sol
• 1:53:53
  Speaker 1: chicken soup. Good to see you again, Jay, got all
• 1:53:55
  Speaker 1: your chickens with you?
• 1:53:56
  Speaker 10: Yes, yes, I got to have the chickens watching you
• 1:53:59
  Speaker 10: when we talk about the chick can soup cookoff.
• 1:54:00
  Speaker 1: Yes you do and listen, it's back. I know you
• 1:54:03
  Speaker 1: had a shut down for COVID there. I used to
• 1:54:05
  Speaker 1: be involved with the judging of it. Always a terrific event.
• 1:54:09
  Speaker 1: It's over at the Temple, yep.
• 1:54:12
  Speaker 10: It's on eighty three twenty nine Ridge Road. This coming
• 1:54:15
  Speaker 10: Sunday from twelve fifteen to three o'clock, and we're going
• 1:54:19
  Speaker 10: to have some eighteen different soups made by local restaurants
• 1:54:23
  Speaker 10: and local talented amateurs. For those of you who don't
• 1:54:26
  Speaker 10: recall the chicken soup cookoff, imagine like a chili cookoff,
• 1:54:29
  Speaker 10: except for doing chicken soup. And we will hand out
• 1:54:32
  Speaker 10: prizes to the best soups, and anybody who comes and
• 1:54:36
  Speaker 10: pays the minimal entrance fee, we'll get to have as
• 1:54:38
  Speaker 10: much soup as they like, as much marks as bagels
• 1:54:40
  Speaker 10: as they like. The money goes to help various charities
• 1:54:44
  Speaker 10: and the Wise Temple Brotherhood, but the soup also goes
• 1:54:48
  Speaker 10: to the Cincinnati Soup Kitchen, so we help hungry directly
• 1:54:52
  Speaker 10: just by attending and coming.
• 1:54:53
  Speaker 1: So all entrants have also made separate donation pots of
• 1:54:57
  Speaker 1: soup that are delivered to the homeless shelters.
• 1:54:59
  Speaker 10: That is correct. That is correct, And we've been doing this.
• 1:55:02
  Speaker 10: This is year twenty twenty. This is the twenty twenty
• 1:55:04
  Speaker 10: six version. This is about the eighteenth time we've done this,
• 1:55:08
  Speaker 10: and we're gonna have great soup like Izzy's, which is
• 1:55:10
  Speaker 10: won so many times.
• 1:55:11
  Speaker 1: I know it is so good, though it is that's
• 1:55:15
  Speaker 1: tough competition if you're planning on entering.
• 1:55:17
  Speaker 10: And that soup that I made for you, that is
• 1:55:20
  Speaker 10: personally really help for cancer. It is personally designed that way.
• 1:55:24
  Speaker 10: Kidding well, I made it for my wife and you're
• 1:55:26
  Speaker 10: getting leftovers.
• 1:55:27
  Speaker 1: And your wife just had a great result on her scans.
• 1:55:31
  Speaker 1: I'm happy to share that she's doing negative.
• 1:55:35
  Speaker 4: Yes, he's feeling good.
• 1:55:37
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you, crickets out there, we're thinking about you.
• 1:55:39
  Speaker 1: We've been praying for you, and I'm so happy you
• 1:55:41
  Speaker 1: got a great report back.
• 1:55:42
  Speaker 10: But the Sacred Beast Diner they have won in the past,
• 1:55:46
  Speaker 10: not as many times as Izzies. Nobody can beat Izzy's.
• 1:55:48
  Speaker 10: We have the seasons, Spice, Baby Spice, Jewish Hospital, Wandering Monsters,
• 1:55:54
  Speaker 10: so we have a lot of soup as always, and
• 1:55:57
  Speaker 10: it's just such a wonderful time.
• 1:55:58
  Speaker 1: You're still doing categories because I always a fan of
• 1:56:00
  Speaker 1: the Matza ball soup, although not that many people go
• 1:56:02
  Speaker 1: through the time and effort to make proper Matza balls.
• 1:56:05
  Speaker 10: Yes, that is true, but we do have the Manza
• 1:56:08
  Speaker 10: ball category, we have the chicken noodle category, and we
• 1:56:11
  Speaker 10: have the most original category. The judging is different since
• 1:56:15
  Speaker 10: I'm no longer personally directing this. We have a huge
• 1:56:19
  Speaker 10: team that's actually running it, and they have set up
• 1:56:23
  Speaker 10: kind of wise temple people to be the judges. I
• 1:56:26
  Speaker 10: don't know that we have actually anyone outside the temple
• 1:56:29
  Speaker 10: to be a judge. But we still have the People's Choice,
• 1:56:31
  Speaker 10: which means that every single person who comes you will
• 1:56:34
  Speaker 10: get a chance to vote. I think they use QR
• 1:56:36
  Speaker 10: codes instead of little pieces of paper. Now, you know,
• 1:56:38
  Speaker 10: we're very next generation, next century, and so come and
• 1:56:43
  Speaker 10: look at that. It is absolutely fantastic.
• 1:56:46
  Speaker 1: Well, the sort of unusual category, the you know, it's
• 1:56:49
  Speaker 1: not chicken noos, so most original. I mean you get
• 1:56:53
  Speaker 1: some wild versions in that, and some of them are
• 1:56:55
  Speaker 1: just off the charts amazing.
• 1:56:57
  Speaker 10: Oh yeah, I love the coconut cream chicken soup that
• 1:56:59
  Speaker 10: we've had. How we've had soups that didn't have chicken,
• 1:57:01
  Speaker 10: which you always thought was pretty original.
• 1:57:03
  Speaker 1: So they're in the wrong competition. Oh I'm calling foul
• 1:57:07
  Speaker 1: on that that I know had charity is benefiting from him.
• 1:57:10
  Speaker 1: But if you're making chicken soups, kind of chicken hit it.
• 1:57:13
  Speaker 4: But we do vegetarian soups.
• 1:57:14
  Speaker 1: So you know who else had always had a really
• 1:57:17
  Speaker 1: good entry, And I was kind of surprised for Kroger.
• 1:57:19
  Speaker 10: Kroger Yeahs not entering this year. And you know, I
• 1:57:22
  Speaker 10: would like to actually say a nod. I mean, it's
• 1:57:23
  Speaker 10: a shame of restaurants that we have had before of canceled.
• 1:57:28
  Speaker 10: The Watson's is long gone. Brown Dog Cafe just closed
• 1:57:32
  Speaker 10: a couple of months.
• 1:57:33
  Speaker 1: Ago, so sad.
• 1:57:34
  Speaker 10: He was there every single year. He won so many trophies.
• 1:57:37
  Speaker 10: So you know, so many good restaurants have come and gone,
• 1:57:40
  Speaker 10: and it's it's kind of the way it goes.
• 1:57:41
  Speaker 4: And the restaurant is, isn't.
• 1:57:42
  Speaker 1: It Well that they've gone, it doesn't mean they won't
• 1:57:44
  Speaker 1: be back. So if they chose not to enter this year,
• 1:57:46
  Speaker 1: next year, you'll be back promoting the chicken soup cook off.
• 1:57:49
  Speaker 10: Yeah, and I really Oh one thing I forgot to mention.
• 1:57:52
  Speaker 10: We do have musical entertainment. Oh you always do well.
• 1:57:55
  Speaker 4: Unfortunately, we're really scraping at the bottom of the barrel.
• 1:57:58
  Speaker 1: This year we did it Shear Hadah.
• 1:58:01
  Speaker 10: That was our temple band. They haven't played in a
• 1:58:03
  Speaker 10: couple of years. We have had a couple other bands play,
• 1:58:05
  Speaker 10: and this year they're gonna have me. I am, that's right,
• 1:58:10
  Speaker 10: playing acoustic guitar and singing sixty seventies nineties music.
• 1:58:14
  Speaker 4: So I'll be in the lobby.
• 1:58:16
  Speaker 1: Doing play around town, doing that gig.
• 1:58:18
  Speaker 4: Yourseluch on that I played in several places.
• 1:58:20
  Speaker 1: I would never do that because of course I don't
• 1:58:22
  Speaker 1: have any musical talent to speak of, So I was
• 1:58:24
  Speaker 1: always wonder what I do in retirement day Rissover retires
• 1:58:26
  Speaker 1: from the practice of medicine and now is performing at
• 1:58:28
  Speaker 1: clubs locally. Find them at a place near you. But
• 1:58:31
  Speaker 1: you can also find him at Chicken Soup Coocough this
• 1:58:32
  Speaker 1: Sunday beginning at again.
• 1:58:34
  Speaker 10: Twelve fifteen to three o'clock. Come and have all the
• 1:58:36
  Speaker 10: soup and Marxist bagels. Twenty five bucks for a family,
• 1:58:40
  Speaker 10: just ten bucks for a person, five bucks for a.
• 1:58:41
  Speaker 1: Kid, but trust me, well worth that, just for what
• 1:58:44
  Speaker 1: you're gonna get while you're there. And everybody has such
• 1:58:46
  Speaker 1: a great time, smiles everywhere, all right. Jay Rissolver can't

  Speaker 9: just read it so we can just go Remember when
• 1:59:41
  Speaker 9: we were complaining.
• 1:59:42
  Speaker 2: About how hot it was, Boy wouldn't that be nice today?
• 1:59:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great idea. Oh, then maybe we could
• 1:59:48
  Speaker 1: rewinden about a decade ago when it was all global warming.
• 1:59:51
  Speaker 1: We're all gonna die because planet's getting all hot. Yeah,
• 1:59:53
  Speaker 1: how's it feel right now?
• 1:59:55
  Speaker 9: Go on, go back to the seventies with global cooling. Oh,
• 1:59:57
  Speaker 9: I remember, that's that's when we were going to because
• 2:00:00
  Speaker 9: the planet was getting cold.
• 2:00:01
  Speaker 1: Yes, sir money. Leonard Nimoy in search of was this series?
• 2:00:06
  Speaker 1: He did an entire half hour episode of The Coming
• 2:00:09
  Speaker 1: Ice Age. I remember like it was yesterday. You can
• 2:00:12
  Speaker 1: still find that on YouTube.
• 2:00:14
  Speaker 2: For those talking about that, they'll be an inconvenient truth.
• 2:00:17
  Speaker 6: I don't know.
• 2:00:18
  Speaker 1: It could be someone did it Aalyss twenty years after
• 2:00:22
  Speaker 1: truth love that nothing at all be matter of fact, the
• 2:00:26
  Speaker 1: exact opposite of what al Gore was preaching back then
• 2:00:29
  Speaker 1: came through. See you see an eye to eye on
• 2:00:32
  Speaker 1: that crap? Anyway over to American Airlines scrambled back to
• 2:00:36
  Speaker 1: full operations and offers flight attendants double time.
• 2:00:41
  Speaker 9: Yeah, the double time. The flight attendants can't normally fly
• 2:00:45
  Speaker 9: on average seventy to ninety flight hours a month. They
• 2:00:48
  Speaker 9: can fly up to one hundred and as American Airlines
• 2:00:51
  Speaker 9: is trying to close out the month and try to
• 2:00:54
  Speaker 9: get everything back on schedule. They're offering their flight attendants
• 2:00:58
  Speaker 9: double time if they want to pick up an extra
• 2:01:00
  Speaker 9: extra flight, and yeah, I'm certain many of them are
• 2:01:04
  Speaker 9: welcoming the chance to earn a few extra dollars, and
• 2:01:06
  Speaker 9: I'm sure a lot of them are like, you know, thanks,
• 2:01:09
  Speaker 9: but no thanks. But you know, American is just doing
• 2:01:12
  Speaker 9: a lot of things in the right kind of way
• 2:01:14
  Speaker 9: right now, and I'm just I'm really positive on them.
• 2:01:16
  Speaker 9: They reported a quarterly profit of roughly two hundred and
• 2:01:20
  Speaker 9: fifty million dollars, and they lost probably two hundred and
• 2:01:23
  Speaker 9: fifty million during the shutdown, and I think this winter
• 2:01:25
  Speaker 9: storm is probably going to hit them with another two
• 2:01:27
  Speaker 9: hundred million dollars in revenue that they could have made.
• 2:01:30
  Speaker 9: But they are so customer focused right now. I just
• 2:01:33
  Speaker 9: hope they don't lose that because they're the airline that's
• 2:01:36
  Speaker 9: going to hold an airplane for us if we're running late,
• 2:01:38
  Speaker 9: and if they can do it. They're using that artificial
• 2:01:41
  Speaker 9: intelligence we talked about to try to make things better
• 2:01:43
  Speaker 9: for us, and I just a I love it, and
• 2:01:46
  Speaker 9: I hope other airlines will actually embrace that kind of
• 2:01:49
  Speaker 9: customer first mentality, which really doesn't exist right now. And
• 2:01:53
  Speaker 9: the same time, I've got some good news on American Yeah,
• 2:01:56
  Speaker 9: I'm certainly pulling for them well.
• 2:01:57
  Speaker 1: That customer first mentality. I mean, these airlines all in competition,
• 2:02:01
  Speaker 1: and you would think the better a customer is treated,
• 2:02:03
  Speaker 1: the more likely they will be loyal to that particular airline.
• 2:02:06
  Speaker 1: Given that we all have choices in this world, but
• 2:02:08
  Speaker 1: in these worlds of shaving, go ahead.
• 2:02:10
  Speaker 9: Yeah, if you and I own or operate a specific
• 2:02:14
  Speaker 9: airline and we've got a strong loyalty program that has
• 2:02:17
  Speaker 9: people locked in because of the credit card they use
• 2:02:19
  Speaker 9: for freaking flyer miles, we take them for granted.
• 2:02:21
  Speaker 1: Yes, we think they're always going to be there.
• 2:02:23
  Speaker 9: And since our load factors are like eighty eighty five percent,
• 2:02:26
  Speaker 9: when we treat them like crap, I mean, they're going
• 2:02:29
  Speaker 9: to take it. So it really doesn't matter how bad
• 2:02:31
  Speaker 9: we treat them, because these these mindless loyal followers will
• 2:02:35
  Speaker 9: always be there. And sadly, to an extent, there's some
• 2:02:38
  Speaker 9: truth in that. Although you know, sometimes when people can
• 2:02:42
  Speaker 9: find better fares, they're certainly go that way. But loyalty, sadly,
• 2:02:47
  Speaker 9: for a lot of these airlines is kind of locked
• 2:02:49
  Speaker 9: in because of people say, well I got to fly
• 2:02:51
  Speaker 9: this airline because of my frequent flyer program, and then
• 2:02:54
  Speaker 9: you ask them how many times they use their miles,
• 2:02:55
  Speaker 9: and it's few and far between. It's like, why would
• 2:02:58
  Speaker 9: you do that versus taking the better flight to get
• 2:03:01
  Speaker 9: you where you need to be NonStop, instead of connecting
• 2:03:03
  Speaker 9: through who knows where, just earn a few miles.
• 2:03:06
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, that's kind of funny you've read that. The
• 2:03:07
  Speaker 1: only reason I'm laughing is because that's me. Back when
• 2:03:10
  Speaker 1: I was a practicing law in Chicago, American Airlines hub there.
• 2:03:12
  Speaker 1: Of course, that's what I flew almost always American Airlines
• 2:03:15
  Speaker 1: when I was going in and out of Ohair. So
• 2:03:17
  Speaker 1: I got on their mileage program as to any other.
• 2:03:19
  Speaker 1: And of course I've had the same credit card, still
• 2:03:21
  Speaker 1: building up miles a year after year after year. It
• 2:03:23
  Speaker 1: wasn't until our trip to Yellowstone was it last year?
• 2:03:26
  Speaker 1: The year before that I ever used any So I
• 2:03:28
  Speaker 1: was having to fly five people to Jackson Hole, Wyoming,
• 2:03:32
  Speaker 1: only using a fraction of the miles that I had
• 2:03:34
  Speaker 1: accumulated over the years.
• 2:03:36
  Speaker 9: Unfortunately they don't expire. Remember, America was the first airline
• 2:03:39
  Speaker 9: that come out with a frequent flyer program in nineteen
• 2:03:42
  Speaker 9: eighty you couldn't have them before during the time of deregulation.
• 2:03:45
  Speaker 9: So they thought, what can we do to adopt a
• 2:03:47
  Speaker 9: loyalty program, and they came out with this frequent flyer miles.
• 2:03:50
  Speaker 2: Will give you know, you know, how.
• 2:03:53
  Speaker 9: Many miles you fly goes into your account. What they
• 2:03:55
  Speaker 9: didn't expect and couldn't really predict, was at that point
• 2:03:58
  Speaker 9: in time, competition was flooding into the industry and fares plummeted.
• 2:04:03
  Speaker 9: So what happened was they were giving away free tickets
• 2:04:07
  Speaker 9: at a decreasing amount of revenue for them. What they
• 2:04:10
  Speaker 9: should have done back then was how many dollars you spent,
• 2:04:13
  Speaker 9: was how many miles you would get, because you know,
• 2:04:16
  Speaker 9: that's how it should be set up. But what they
• 2:04:19
  Speaker 9: found out was they were giving free tickets away as
• 2:04:21
  Speaker 9: prices were decreasing, and it was costing.
• 2:04:23
  Speaker 6: Them quite a bit of money.
• 2:04:24
  Speaker 9: So that's why we try to see them reverting right
• 2:04:26
  Speaker 9: now back to something that's a little bit more in
• 2:04:28
  Speaker 9: their advantage. But everybody should sign up for a freaking
• 2:04:31
  Speaker 9: flyer program. Some credit cards, you sign up and you
• 2:04:34
  Speaker 9: get forty thousand frequent flyer miles. You don't have to
• 2:04:37
  Speaker 9: use it, but just a few times to get it started,
• 2:04:39
  Speaker 9: and then keep the stupid thing paid off and you
• 2:04:41
  Speaker 9: get like a free ticket on the airline.
• 2:04:43
  Speaker 1: There you got, Yeah, it's worth shopping around for that.
• 2:04:46
  Speaker 1: More with Jay Rytloff American Airline avoiding multimillion dollar fine
• 2:04:50
  Speaker 1: over one delayed flight plus the worst airport at least
• 2:04:54
  Speaker 1: in con terms of missus near missus as identified by
• 2:04:58
  Speaker 1: the very airlines themselves, plus more with Jay Ratlifts stick
• 2:05:01
  Speaker 1: around seven or eight thirty eight thirty five KROSD talk station,
• 2:05:06
  Speaker 1: Jay Ratlift friend of the whole world. I heard media
• 2:05:09
  Speaker 1: Aviation ext where you find him all the iHeart stations.
• 2:05:12
  Speaker 1: He does that full time twenty four to seven. There's
• 2:05:14
  Speaker 1: so many stations. That's seriously no. I appreciate the time
• 2:05:16
  Speaker 1: you will un to smoke my listeners with me, Jay,
• 2:05:18
  Speaker 1: You know, I get a kick out of some of
• 2:05:19
  Speaker 1: the topics. And let me just start with this one.
• 2:05:22
  Speaker 1: I want to know who the airlines name the airport
• 2:05:24
  Speaker 1: that they are most concerned with because of near missus anyway,
• 2:05:29
  Speaker 1: and we.
• 2:05:29
  Speaker 9: Get it fun with you guessing, but you probably wouldn't
• 2:05:32
  Speaker 9: guess that it's the Burbank Airport, California.
• 2:05:35
  Speaker 1: No, never would have know that. Never Yet I don't
• 2:05:37
  Speaker 1: even know Burbank Cannon Airport, Jai, although I can.
• 2:05:40
  Speaker 9: It's seven eight airlines. I mean, they've got quite a bit,
• 2:05:43
  Speaker 9: quite quite a bit of activity in and out of there.
• 2:05:45
  Speaker 9: But the National Transportation Safety Board has commented, in fact,
• 2:05:50
  Speaker 9: I love the chair of the NTSB, Jennifer Homedy. She
• 2:05:55
  Speaker 9: she does not hesitate at all to express her opinion
• 2:05:58
  Speaker 9: when it comes to safety, and God bless her for it.
• 2:06:01
  Speaker 9: But she said that the airport that airlines complaining the
• 2:06:04
  Speaker 9: most about as far as the near missus is Burbank
• 2:06:08
  Speaker 9: because they've had one near miss close near miss per
• 2:06:12
  Speaker 9: year for like the last five years at that airport.
• 2:06:15
  Speaker 9: And it's the airport that most airlines are complaining about
• 2:06:19
  Speaker 9: as far as we need better conditions here. And of course,
• 2:06:22
  Speaker 9: you know, it was also the NTSB that said, look,
• 2:06:25
  Speaker 9: you know, we've had a situation where we've had a
• 2:06:28
  Speaker 9: you know, fifteen thousand issues in Washington, d C. Reagan
• 2:06:32
  Speaker 9: Airport over the last several years as well, so you know,
• 2:06:36
  Speaker 9: the issues out there, and the FAA is under the
• 2:06:38
  Speaker 9: gun to try to do a better job.
• 2:06:39
  Speaker 2: They're talking about creating a safety overview office.
• 2:06:42
  Speaker 9: Okay, I guess to try to you know, help you know,
• 2:06:47
  Speaker 9: solve this issue. But yeah, that's the airport that they
• 2:06:49
  Speaker 9: say we need more help with.
• 2:06:51
  Speaker 1: Cut into the chase. I mean, I see some pretty
• 2:06:53
  Speaker 1: goofy runway layouts and you know videos and things of
• 2:06:56
  Speaker 1: that nature, like how in the hell can any pilot
• 2:06:58
  Speaker 1: land on that runway kind of stuff. But is it
• 2:06:59
  Speaker 1: the way the airport's designed that results in this? Is
• 2:07:02
  Speaker 1: it the length of time or the shortness or the
• 2:07:05
  Speaker 1: length of the runway that's the problem. And what have
• 2:07:06
  Speaker 1: they identified why there's so many near misses there?
• 2:07:09
  Speaker 9: Well, sometimes it's it's it's it's how the proximity of
• 2:07:12
  Speaker 9: the airport sometimes to a military installation or to another
• 2:07:16
  Speaker 9: or to another international airport. And then you also have
• 2:07:20
  Speaker 9: the situation of, yes, the runway configuration, and a lot
• 2:07:24
  Speaker 9: of times it just comes out to the logistics and
• 2:07:27
  Speaker 9: having sometimes too much activity at a specific time. And
• 2:07:32
  Speaker 9: when you factor in when we have a shortage of
• 2:07:34
  Speaker 9: air traffic controllers, where I think a lot of this
• 2:07:37
  Speaker 9: can stem from. When you don't have all hands on deck,
• 2:07:40
  Speaker 9: it increases the likelihood even though it may be a
• 2:07:42
  Speaker 9: minor percentage of something being missed, overlooked, or a mistake
• 2:07:46
  Speaker 9: being made. And sometimes it's pilot air, sometimes it's air
• 2:07:49
  Speaker 9: traffic control air. Sometimes it's it's a combination of both
• 2:07:52
  Speaker 9: that lends itself to two aircraft being in the same
• 2:07:55
  Speaker 9: airspace at the same time, which should not happen, right,
• 2:07:58
  Speaker 9: And of course we have we have technology that assists
• 2:08:00
  Speaker 9: us if from the traffic Collision Avoidance system that will
• 2:08:05
  Speaker 9: help assist crews if two aircraft get to be too
• 2:08:08
  Speaker 9: close to each other. But you know, the takeoff and
• 2:08:10
  Speaker 9: landing is the most critical time of any flight operation,
• 2:08:14
  Speaker 9: and that's when you've got a lot of different things
• 2:08:16
  Speaker 9: going on, and sometimes these airplanes just get to be
• 2:08:19
  Speaker 9: a little bit too close. And sadly, over the last
• 2:08:21
  Speaker 9: year year and a half, I've spent more time talking
• 2:08:23
  Speaker 9: about it because we've had places in Austin and Phoenix
• 2:08:26
  Speaker 9: some other airports where these things have taken place, and
• 2:08:29
  Speaker 9: you know, thankfully it's just a story of what the
• 2:08:32
  Speaker 9: near miss was and not an accident, but it also
• 2:08:35
  Speaker 9: underscores just how close we are in some of these
• 2:08:37
  Speaker 9: things that you know, and sadly, Brian. When like in DC,
• 2:08:42
  Speaker 9: when the FAA is fully aware of the fact that
• 2:08:44
  Speaker 9: you have fifteen thousand incidents of you know, aircraft and
• 2:08:49
  Speaker 9: of some type having to take evasive action, even if
• 2:08:54
  Speaker 9: it's you know, a minor go around type of thing,
• 2:08:56
  Speaker 9: it's a very clear flag that something's off here.
• 2:08:59
  Speaker 6: That we need to fix.
• 2:09:01
  Speaker 9: And in DC, because nothing had gone wrong, there wasn't
• 2:09:05
  Speaker 9: really the emphasis and the urgency to fix the problem.
• 2:09:10
  Speaker 9: And of course you have the crash that it kills
• 2:09:13
  Speaker 9: so many people, and then okay, now what can we
• 2:09:16
  Speaker 9: do to fix it? And what you're hoping is that
• 2:09:19
  Speaker 9: they look at these other red flags across the country
• 2:09:21
  Speaker 9: and say, look, we need to either upgrade some technology here,
• 2:09:24
  Speaker 9: increase the staffing effect, the traffic flow, whatever you've got
• 2:09:30
  Speaker 9: to do our combination of the of several to make
• 2:09:34
  Speaker 9: things even safer than what they are right now. And look,
• 2:09:36
  Speaker 9: we're the NBA of the world from a safety standpoint,
• 2:09:39
  Speaker 9: but we can always do better.
• 2:09:40
  Speaker 1: True, And I suppose while this relief maybe down the road,
• 2:09:43
  Speaker 1: perhaps ten or more years, doesn't the one big beautiful
• 2:09:47
  Speaker 1: bill have billions of dollars for the FAA upgrades and
• 2:09:50
  Speaker 1: system upgrades, and this nineteen eighties getting rid of this
• 2:09:53
  Speaker 1: nineteen eighties computer technology they've been using.
• 2:09:56
  Speaker 9: It does, and it throws me to death. But in
• 2:09:58
  Speaker 9: that same report actually allows the Reagan Airport to have
• 2:10:02
  Speaker 9: reduced reduced restrictions on air activity, which oh yeah, yeah,
• 2:10:09
  Speaker 9: I wouldn't have. It wouldn't have been popped up on
• 2:10:11
  Speaker 9: my radar until the NTSB chair when it was being discussed,
• 2:10:16
  Speaker 9: came out and said time out here. I don't know
• 2:10:17
  Speaker 9: if everybodys looked through this three thousand page bill, but
• 2:10:21
  Speaker 9: right here it says this, and I thought you gotta.
• 2:10:24
  Speaker 6: Be kidding me.
• 2:10:25
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it got snuck in there that because remember we
• 2:10:28
  Speaker 9: talked about how a lot of the politicians like to
• 2:10:31
  Speaker 9: be shuttled back and forth because they're important and they
• 2:10:33
  Speaker 9: want those little helicopter trips across there, across the river,
• 2:10:36
  Speaker 9: blah blah blah, even though it might, you know, inconvenience
• 2:10:39
  Speaker 9: the normal people that are flying and they got to
• 2:10:41
  Speaker 9: go around in their airplane, No big deal, because I'm
• 2:10:43
  Speaker 9: important and I got to get across there. Right, It's
• 2:10:46
  Speaker 9: just yeah, again, both sides of the aisle I have
• 2:10:50
  Speaker 9: I have so little use for because so often it's
• 2:10:53
  Speaker 9: just them first everybody else's if even a considerations, it's
• 2:10:57
  Speaker 9: a distant one.
• 2:10:58
  Speaker 6: But yeah, it's in there.
• 2:10:59
  Speaker 2: You can you can google it. It's on the internet,
• 2:11:01
  Speaker 2: so it's got to be true.
• 2:11:02
  Speaker 1: Well, well, I can only hope. I mean, some of
• 2:11:04
  Speaker 1: the details of that, the plane crashing in or the
• 2:11:07
  Speaker 1: helicopter crash of the plane, however you want to look
• 2:11:09
  Speaker 1: at it. The report that the air traffic controller there
• 2:11:12
  Speaker 1: reported to his supervisor that he was overwhelmed in a
• 2:11:16
  Speaker 1: stressful situation managing eleven or so aircraft that are all
• 2:11:20
  Speaker 1: in close proximity. So he reported that he was under
• 2:11:23
  Speaker 1: stress or duress, and nothing changed like, Okay, go back
• 2:11:26
  Speaker 1: to your job.
• 2:11:27
  Speaker 9: Well, so many of them are are that way anyways,
• 2:11:30
  Speaker 9: because the fact that we are thousands and thousands of
• 2:11:32
  Speaker 9: air traffic controller short and that's the normal existence, the
• 2:11:36
  Speaker 9: normal work environment for a lot of these men and
• 2:11:38
  Speaker 9: women that sometimes don't have a day off for a
• 2:11:40
  Speaker 9: long time work in six day work weeks, you might
• 2:11:43
  Speaker 9: get a day off. I mean, it's just and you've
• 2:11:45
  Speaker 9: got the stress, and you've got everything.
• 2:11:47
  Speaker 6: Else that's on top of you.
• 2:11:48
  Speaker 9: And yeah, it is a very very challenging situation, which
• 2:11:51
  Speaker 9: is why I'm thrilled that President Trump has decided early
• 2:11:54
  Speaker 9: on in his administration, let's make this a priority and
• 2:11:58
  Speaker 9: as quickly as we can get back to where we
• 2:12:00
  Speaker 9: need to be from a staffing standpoint, which hasn't been
• 2:12:03
  Speaker 9: the case for like the last five administrations. At least
• 2:12:06
  Speaker 9: now they've talked about it and they said, you know,
• 2:12:08
  Speaker 9: we need to do something about it.
• 2:12:10
  Speaker 6: And you know.
• 2:12:11
  Speaker 9: Many times that that involves we'll get a committee that
• 2:12:13
  Speaker 9: will report back. Yeah, please, yeah, Brian, you know it
• 2:12:18
  Speaker 9: just it just frustrates me because either it's a priority
• 2:12:21
  Speaker 9: or it's not. And when you don't, you know, words
• 2:12:24
  Speaker 9: are cheap, I mean, who cares. It's it's what your
• 2:12:26
  Speaker 9: actions dictate that really defines your your your seriousness about
• 2:12:30
  Speaker 9: a specific topic.
• 2:12:32

• 2:12:59
  Speaker 1: I heard the aviation expert jay or what's the story
• 2:13:03
  Speaker 1: on this two point nine million dollar fine for one delay?
• 2:13:07
  Speaker 2: Yes, that was a possible.
• 2:13:10
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 2:13:10
  Speaker 9: What happened was we had American Airline flight comes into Harrisburg, Pennsylvania,
• 2:13:15
  Speaker 9: and they approached the gate. It's running late, it's like midnight,
• 2:13:18
  Speaker 9: and as they pull up, the captain's told that they
• 2:13:22
  Speaker 9: don't have the people at the gate that they need
• 2:13:24
  Speaker 9: at the at the gate outside on the ground. So
• 2:13:28
  Speaker 9: he tells the passengers, we've got to hold short here
• 2:13:30
  Speaker 9: until the people, you know, we've got the workers in place. Well,
• 2:13:33
  Speaker 9: what happened was they were there for quite a while.
• 2:13:36
  Speaker 9: Somebody showed up to try to get the jet bridge
• 2:13:38
  Speaker 9: moving and they said, oh, the jet bridge is working,
• 2:13:40
  Speaker 9: which may be the case, or may be somebody that
• 2:13:42
  Speaker 9: wasn't qualified to operate it trying to make it work.
• 2:13:46
  Speaker 9: So the delay was went on for an hour, and
• 2:13:49
  Speaker 9: then it went two hours, and then passengers were on
• 2:13:52
  Speaker 9: the plane two and a half hours, and they said, look,
• 2:13:55
  Speaker 9: per the FAA, if we have people on this plane
• 2:13:58
  Speaker 9: for three hours with giving them the opportunity to get off.
• 2:14:02
  Speaker 9: There is a fine of twenty seven thousand dollars per
• 2:14:06
  Speaker 9: passenger that we could as American airlines, be fine, we
• 2:14:09
  Speaker 9: have one hundred and seven people on board, that's two
• 2:14:12
  Speaker 9: point nine million dollars. We've got thirty minutes. So they
• 2:14:16
  Speaker 9: made the decision to bring the ground steps to the
• 2:14:19
  Speaker 9: back of the airplane, get everybody off, excuse me, the
• 2:14:22
  Speaker 9: back of the airplane board outside, which is not obviously
• 2:14:26
  Speaker 9: what you want to do, but it got everybody into
• 2:14:28
  Speaker 9: the tarmac before that three hour mark. And that was
• 2:14:32
  Speaker 9: put into place a number of years ago to force
• 2:14:35
  Speaker 9: airlines into action in the event you have one of
• 2:14:37
  Speaker 9: these creeping delays like we had here, and it's good
• 2:14:40
  Speaker 9: to see and you know, obviously something like it now
• 2:14:43
  Speaker 9: if it's a weather related delay, internationals are a little
• 2:14:46
  Speaker 9: bit longer, and sometimes on a weather situation, there's some
• 2:14:50
  Speaker 9: things that can play in there. But the bottom line
• 2:14:52
  Speaker 9: is that three hour clock is picking.
• 2:14:54
  Speaker 6: And yeah, they they.
• 2:14:56
  Speaker 2: Missed a almost a three million dollar fine by you know,
• 2:15:00
  Speaker 2: less than thirty minutes.
• 2:15:01
  Speaker 1: That is amazing. I putting know to Southwest Airlines what
• 2:15:05
  Speaker 1: no more assigns they're they're doing as signed seating now,
• 2:15:08
  Speaker 1: I guess yes, I remember that.
• 2:15:10
  Speaker 6: It was.
• 2:15:11
  Speaker 1: It was it was the cattle call thing, right, Oh.
• 2:15:13
  Speaker 2: Good lord, it was.
• 2:15:14
  Speaker 6: It was.
• 2:15:14
  Speaker 1: It was.
• 2:15:15
  Speaker 9: It was you know, Friday, March madness, everything y'all rolled
• 2:15:20
  Speaker 9: into one. It was like a concert. Well, yeah, it was.
• 2:15:24
  Speaker 9: It's a contact sport, for sure. So now you've got
• 2:15:26
  Speaker 9: a situation where everybody has to when you make a reservation,
• 2:15:29
  Speaker 9: you've got three categories, the standard, preferred, and we're the
• 2:15:32
  Speaker 9: ones with the extra leg room, and you pay accordingly.
• 2:15:36
  Speaker 9: And people that are used to open seating, like Southwest
• 2:15:38
  Speaker 9: have been for the last fifty five years, said yeah,
• 2:15:40
  Speaker 9: I don't like this. Plus the thing is, you know,
• 2:15:42
  Speaker 9: I might have to pay more to keep my family
• 2:15:45
  Speaker 9: of you know, four or five six together, And certainly
• 2:15:48
  Speaker 9: that could be the case as well. It just depends
• 2:15:50
  Speaker 9: on where you're going to be sitting. But most people
• 2:15:52
  Speaker 9: just don't like to change, and as a result, they're
• 2:15:54
  Speaker 9: they're kind of pushing back saying we don't like it.
• 2:15:56
  Speaker 9: But the vast majority of people that I've talked to said, Jay,
• 2:16:00
  Speaker 9: I love it, and I'm going to love it because
• 2:16:02
  Speaker 9: now I can board and know where I'm going to sit.
• 2:16:05
  Speaker 9: I've got the storage compartment over me that hopefully will
• 2:16:08
  Speaker 9: still be available. I don't have to worry about scrambling
• 2:16:11
  Speaker 9: and trying to get on first. I don't have to
• 2:16:13
  Speaker 9: see forty five people in a wheelchair and all their
• 2:16:16
  Speaker 9: families getting on before me when only three need them
• 2:16:19
  Speaker 9: on the other end. So it's saving a lot of headaches. Now,
• 2:16:22
  Speaker 9: the problem is Southwest their agents. They're getting used to
• 2:16:26
  Speaker 9: this and it's going to be a process. I've heard
• 2:16:28
  Speaker 9: from several Southwest Airlines friends of mine talking about, Man,
• 2:16:31
  Speaker 9: this just isn't going well. I said, give it time,
• 2:16:34
  Speaker 9: because anytime you go through this, it just it takes
• 2:16:37
  Speaker 9: time for these agents to get into that routine where
• 2:16:40
  Speaker 9: they are comfortable with this new procedure, just like with passengers.
• 2:16:44
  Speaker 9: And it's going to help Southwest Airlines to generate more money,
• 2:16:47
  Speaker 9: which is good, and I really think in the long
• 2:16:49
  Speaker 9: run it's going to help the gate agents to do
• 2:16:51
  Speaker 9: a better job there. And I think it is going
• 2:16:53
  Speaker 9: to take the stress out of that boarding process, which
• 2:16:56
  Speaker 9: for years for Southwest has been almost unmanageable given how
• 2:17:00
  Speaker 9: many people are trying to get on that airplane as
• 2:17:02
  Speaker 9: early as you can. And you know, you can always
• 2:17:05
  Speaker 9: help yourself if you're a Southwest frequent flyer. I'm always
• 2:17:08
  Speaker 9: talking about that getting their rewards card, and obviously if
• 2:17:11
  Speaker 9: you get it and use it and pay off of
• 2:17:13
  Speaker 9: everything so nobody bings you with interest, but that can
• 2:17:16
  Speaker 9: help you as far as some of your boarding status
• 2:17:18
  Speaker 9: and your check luggage and things of that nature as well,
• 2:17:22
  Speaker 9: and you can save some money in the process. So
• 2:17:24
  Speaker 9: every tool you can use to kind of fight back
• 2:17:26
  Speaker 9: and not pay the airlines. Believe me, you know, fill
• 2:17:30
  Speaker 9: that arsenal with as many pieces of you know that
• 2:17:33
  Speaker 9: you can use so that we can kind of fight
• 2:17:35
  Speaker 9: back when it comes to some of these ancillary affairs
• 2:17:37
  Speaker 9: we're getting hit.
• 2:17:38
  Speaker 1: With fair enough.
• 2:17:39
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 2:17:40
  Speaker 1: Jay Ratherway just noticed on an article because I always
• 2:17:41
  Speaker 1: look at aviation news before I talk to you. But
• 2:17:43
  Speaker 1: I guess do you have a like a coping skill
• 2:17:46
  Speaker 1: for someone who's stuck on a twenty five hour flight?
• 2:17:49
  Speaker 1: The longest flight is that a Quantis Airline from Sydney
• 2:17:52
  Speaker 1: Airlines to Paris Charles Degall Airport. If you told me
• 2:17:55
  Speaker 1: I was going on a twenty five hour flight, I
• 2:17:57
  Speaker 1: got two words for you. It ain't happy birthday.
• 2:18:01
  Speaker 9: You just hope you're in a seat that's either extra
• 2:18:03
  Speaker 9: leg room, or in first class. But I don't care
• 2:18:05
  Speaker 9: where you're at. H That is a long, long flight,
• 2:18:08
  Speaker 9: and they stop somewhere for fueling. But the point is
• 2:18:12
  Speaker 9: you're talking about being in that tube.
• 2:18:15
  Speaker 2: That just seems I think thirteen or fourteen, maybe fifteen
• 2:18:18
  Speaker 2: hours as long as I've been on a flight coming
• 2:18:21
  Speaker 2: out of China back to Detroit. But you know, it's
• 2:18:25
  Speaker 2: you just.
• 2:18:25
  Speaker 9: You just pace yourself, and you know, you do certain
• 2:18:28
  Speaker 9: things in airlines help us with that, saying Okay, we're
• 2:18:30
  Speaker 9: going to be serving dinner in a couple of hours,
• 2:18:33
  Speaker 9: and they're getting you ready for that, and then dinner
• 2:18:36
  Speaker 9: is served, and then a few hours later they're like, okay,
• 2:18:39
  Speaker 9: we're going to be preparing for breakfast down the road here.
• 2:18:41
  Speaker 9: And so you're in a bit of a routine. But
• 2:18:43
  Speaker 9: the thing for me is I've always got to be
• 2:18:45
  Speaker 9: up walking around a bit. So I'm always walking to
• 2:18:47
  Speaker 9: the back of the plane, and because just to keep
• 2:18:50
  Speaker 9: from getting stiff, and they always say you've got to be,
• 2:18:53
  Speaker 9: you know, concerned with blood clots and things like that.
• 2:18:56
  Speaker 1: Well, is that pesty turbulence problem that seems to notice
• 2:19:00
  Speaker 1: day when you're walking around Anyway, Some.
• 2:19:03
  Speaker 9: People do yoga back in the galley and they're on
• 2:19:05
  Speaker 9: the floor stretching.
• 2:19:06
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh no. Some people take Xanax and drink
• 2:19:09
  Speaker 1: Anniehouse and then.
• 2:19:10
  Speaker 2: Some people do yoga in there in their seats.
• 2:19:12
  Speaker 6: You could google that image.
• 2:19:13
  Speaker 1: To toll if we always been on hub delays. How
• 2:19:15
  Speaker 1: are things looking out there.
• 2:19:17
  Speaker 9: You know, other than cold, that's pretty much it at
• 2:19:20
  Speaker 9: this point. Now, look, we've got a winter storm that
• 2:19:22
  Speaker 9: may be giving us issues in the Northeast. If you're
• 2:19:24
  Speaker 9: traveling obviously this weekend through the Northeast, make sure the
• 2:19:27
  Speaker 9: airlines have a way of getting a hold of you.
• 2:19:29
  Speaker 9: But right now, it's just the icing delays that we're
• 2:19:31
  Speaker 9: fighting right now, So they're minor other than a lot
• 2:19:34
  Speaker 9: of ring up in Seattle delays in that way. But Brian,
• 2:19:37
  Speaker 9: looking at the map, it's it's one of the better
• 2:19:39
  Speaker 9: days to fly absent the really really really cold weather
• 2:19:42
  Speaker 9: that we've got out there.
• 2:19:43
  Speaker 2: So everybody please be careful, be care
