- 0:46Speaker 3: of his abilities, of course, So I accused Tony of

- 1:26Speaker 3: One week from today, it's time to well cast a
- 1:28Speaker 3: vote in the city of Cincinnati. Dear God, I hope
- 1:30Speaker 3: the residents of the city come out and vote. It's
- 1:35Speaker 3: just so heartbreaking that twenty five percent of the residents
- 1:38Speaker 3: of the city are going to determine the city's future.
- 1:40Speaker 3: Every single person in the city is going to be
- 1:42Speaker 3: impacted by this election, perhaps profoundly. So I get some
- 1:47Speaker 3: updates on what's going on with the police chief and
- 1:49Speaker 3: this is even further into the realm of bizarre. But
- 1:52Speaker 3: don't worry about that. We get to that shortly. Empower you.
- 1:57Speaker 3: This is going to be enlightening. So after done House
- 2:00Speaker 3: at seven five, fast forward to seven thirty. Empower you

- 2:06Speaker 3: sign in to either show up in person or well
- 2:09Speaker 3: log in from the comfort of your own home. In

- 2:15Speaker 3: logging in from home anyway. Je Van Fleet will join
- 2:21Speaker 3: us this morning at seven thirty. She well grew up
- 2:24Speaker 3: in communist China, and she's got a warning for us,
- 2:29Speaker 3: author of Mao's America's a Survivor's Warning. Born in China,
- 2:34Speaker 3: lived through the Cultural Revolution. She got sent to work
- 2:37Speaker 3: out in the countryside at age sixteen for re education.
- 2:42Speaker 3: Set after Mao's death, she was able to go to
- 2:43Speaker 3: college and eventually come to America for graduate study. She's
- 2:46Speaker 3: lived here in the United States since nineteen eighty six.
- 2:50Speaker 3: Back in twenty twenty one, she delivered a speech to
- 2:52Speaker 3: the Loud and County, Virginia school Board against critical race theory.
- 2:56Speaker 3: That speech went viral ignited national conservative media attention. Since
- 3:01Speaker 3: going public with a message, she's appeared on Fox News,
- 3:03Speaker 3: Tucker Carlson's program, Tucker Carlson dot Com, Newsmax Radio shows
- 3:08Speaker 3: podcast across the country. What is she going to talk about?
- 3:11Speaker 3: The scary, frightening out loud right in front of you,
- 3:14Speaker 3: like waving a red flag. Parallels between Marxist ideology that
- 3:17Speaker 3: our young people are being shoved, having shoved down their
- 3:20Speaker 3: throat by the progressive left, and the parallels to the
- 3:23Speaker 3: China Cultural Revolution. Oh, look at this. Among the points
- 3:29Speaker 3: she's going to discuss, the Marxists used tactics of division,
- 3:34Speaker 3: something I've been pointing out for years and years on
- 3:36Speaker 3: this program any place. Our enemies, most notably the well
- 3:39Speaker 3: oiled machine that is the Chinese Communist Party, most relying
- 3:43Speaker 3: on social media, dividing us across the board on everything.
- 3:47Speaker 3: Pick a topic, division, anger, vitriol, comments, online doxing, name
- 3:55Speaker 3: a topic, they love, sturing the pot, division, deception, coercion, cancelation, subversion,
- 4:06Speaker 3: and also violence, which is becoming a more and more
- 4:09Speaker 3: common thing, most notably among the leftists. Another the left
- 4:14Speaker 3: wants to keep pointing the finger at the right as
- 4:16Speaker 3: if some sort of evil cadre of white supremacist is
- 4:20Speaker 3: lurking in the background committing all of these violent offenses,
- 4:23Speaker 3: when in fact, every time you find out somebody's committing
- 4:25Speaker 3: a vile offense, it happens to be someone on the
- 4:27Speaker 3: left anyway, Also aimed to destroy the foundation and the
- 4:33Speaker 3: traditional culture to replace it with wealth, flat out marx societyologies.
- 4:38Speaker 3: Do you feel as if your cultural tradition has been
- 4:40Speaker 3: a road eroded over the past several years. Huh? Kind
- 4:43Speaker 3: of felt like it started with Obama and it went
- 4:45Speaker 3: on steroids with the Biden administration. Boy, they were really
- 4:49Speaker 3: hoping Hillary Clinton got beat Donald Trump that twenty sixteen election.
- 4:53Speaker 3: That burst the hell out of their bubble. They were
- 4:57Speaker 3: on a steamroll over American culture, tearing down statues, just
- 5:02Speaker 3: telling us we were all irredeemably terrible as a country.
- 5:06Speaker 3: Our country was born of original sin and was not deserving.
- 5:10Speaker 3: There is not deserving to continue to exist. Yeah, weaponizing youth,
- 5:18Speaker 3: using them as a means to an end. Well, youth
- 5:21Speaker 3: have always been weaponized. That's the Marxist favorite group. Because well,
- 5:24Speaker 3: and this is no insult to the young people of America.
- 5:26Speaker 3: You just happen to be dumb. You don't have the
- 5:28Speaker 3: call the world experience that just merely living life will
- 5:32Speaker 3: give you. Right through that old average adage, he who's
- 5:35Speaker 3: not from the left as a youth has no heart.
- 5:37Speaker 3: He who is not from the right as an adult
- 5:39Speaker 3: has no brain. You wake up to the reality that
- 5:42Speaker 3: your useful idiocy in supporting Marxist principles well was stupid.
- 5:52Speaker 3: So youth weaponization share the same goal of achieving absolute
- 5:55Speaker 3: power at the expense of the people. Right, your freedoms
- 5:57Speaker 3: get eroded under the totalitarian marx reality. No, it's not
- 6:01Speaker 3: each according news ability to each according to his need.
- 6:04Speaker 3: It's one superstructure of wealthy elite oligarchs basically dictating the
- 6:12Speaker 3: terms and conditions of your life, micro manage you, telling
- 6:15Speaker 3: you what you can and can't do in the case
- 6:16Speaker 3: of g while sending you off to the fields for
- 6:20Speaker 3: re education. Anyway, it's going to be a fascinating conversation,
- 6:26Speaker 3: of course, the fascinating power you seminar. She'll join the
- 6:29Speaker 3: program at seven thirty, follow by the Daniel Davis Deep Dive,
- 6:31Speaker 3: fast forwarding one hour at eight thirty, the latest on Russia, Ukraine,
- 6:35Speaker 3: Israel and Hamas, and then at the close of the program,
- 6:37Speaker 3: Senator John Houston returns to talk about the shutdown which
- 6:40Speaker 3: is still in effect. Answer me this, what in the
- 6:50Speaker 3: hell is going on in the City of Cincinnati, pivoting
- 6:52Speaker 3: back to the ongoing sago. After have paral city manager
- 6:56Speaker 3: Sherry Long police chief threes Thiji, why did she get
- 6:59Speaker 3: put on him? In straight of leave to keep reminding folks,
- 7:03Speaker 3: she reported to Cheryl Wong, and I have to have Parvoll.
- 7:07Speaker 3: The people who hired her over the objections of the
- 7:09Speaker 3: Cincinni Police Department. Hey, we want this person. No, no, no,
- 7:12Speaker 3: you're not going to get that person others Lisa Davis.
- 7:14Speaker 3: You're gonna get police chief Fiji. We want her. She's
- 7:17Speaker 3: the best for the job. We don't care what the
- 7:18Speaker 3: police department wants. Put her in the position. Fast forward
- 7:21Speaker 3: to most recently, let her go because well, we've got
- 7:23Speaker 3: a problem in the city of Cincinnati. After months and
- 7:25Speaker 3: years of denial, we do have a crime problem in
- 7:28Speaker 3: the city. Have to have Parvoll. Perhaps, seeing his job
- 7:31Speaker 3: in jeopardy, please let that be a possibility, starts talking
- 7:36Speaker 3: about rethinking the police. Let's put more police on the street.
- 7:38Speaker 3: Let's take the governor up on his offer for some
- 7:41Speaker 3: additional resources from the High State Patrol. Well, we'll take
- 7:44Speaker 3: a few days anyway, we'll start enforcing the curfew, and
- 7:50Speaker 3: we'll get rid of the police chief because apparently she's
- 7:53Speaker 3: the one responsible for the violence in the city. Now
- 7:56Speaker 3: it has nothing to do with the woke policies of
- 7:57Speaker 3: the administration, nothing to do with the judges that stupidly
- 8:00Speaker 3: elected and won't bother administering punishment to people who are
- 8:05Speaker 3: well deserving of it. Let's get rid of the chief.
- 8:15Speaker 3: So it's with great bewilderment that I'm looking at this
- 8:18Speaker 3: article from Fox nineteen Alexis Martin and Trey Matthews. What's
- 8:21Speaker 3: going on? Since a City council member Seth Walsh handed
- 8:25Speaker 3: out the document of the retention of the law firm
- 8:27Speaker 3: that the city retained to look into and investigate the
- 8:31Speaker 3: since a police chief threase of Thiji documents released money
- 8:36Speaker 3: after council member Seth Walsh said the council was blindsided
- 8:41Speaker 3: by the announcement, so he, along with Jeff Cramerting, Mark
- 8:47Speaker 3: Jeffreys Amica Owens, signed a motion requesting the document the
- 8:51Speaker 3: retention documents of the law firm that was rehired to
- 8:53Speaker 3: look into police cheve Thiji. Blindsided, they didn't know this
- 8:57Speaker 3: was going to happen. Four objectives listed. One determinive. Fiji
- 9:06Speaker 3: had been quote an effective leader and manager of the
- 9:10Speaker 3: Citincinnati Police Department, including personnel and resources. Effective leader and
- 9:17Speaker 3: manager that sounds to me like entering into the realm
- 9:21Speaker 3: of subjectivity. Well, the law firm will render its objective
- 9:26Speaker 3: opinion on that.
- 9:26Speaker 4: Well.
- 9:27Speaker 3: Also, issue number two determinedive Figi's leadership quote within the
- 9:31Speaker 3: context of city government, including by furthering the broader goals
- 9:37Speaker 3: and objective of the city administration. Well, wait a minute,
- 9:43Speaker 3: objectives of the city administration have to have par ball
- 9:47Speaker 3: Perhaps City Manager Cheryl Long, weren't they defund the police
- 9:50Speaker 3: Reimagine the Police IRIS Roly supporters. It was those two
- 9:54Speaker 3: that got a contract with IRIS defund Reimagine the Police Roly,
- 9:59Speaker 3: wasn't it? They're objectives? This is something I've been pointing
- 10:01Speaker 3: out for the last several well, not only me reiterating
- 10:05Speaker 3: the words of many other people who are more in
- 10:07Speaker 3: the know than I am, Police Chief Thiji. Because she
- 10:10Speaker 3: reported Long and Parvall was well, working at their behest,
- 10:15Speaker 3: working to fulfill the objectives of the city administration, part
- 10:19Speaker 3: of the work that this law firm is going to
- 10:22Speaker 3: be doing. Yeah, maybe that's why the police department, and
- 10:25Speaker 3: it's in her decision making with regard to policing didn't
- 10:29Speaker 3: work out so well because she was furthering the objectives
- 10:34Speaker 3: of the city administration rather than focusing on best practices
- 10:37Speaker 3: for dealing with criminals on the street. Number three determined
- 10:42Speaker 3: I Fiji has quote committed any infraction or policy violation
- 10:46Speaker 3: while serving as police chief. Got a particularly good chuckle
- 10:48Speaker 3: out of that one. Her record appareent is spotless by
- 10:51Speaker 3: all accounts. Haven't seen her file, but up until a
- 10:56Speaker 3: moment of time ago, she'd been getting the praises of
- 10:58Speaker 3: a to have pervall on the administry. She'd been at
- 11:00Speaker 3: her job for a long time. She had never been
- 11:02Speaker 3: disciplined in her thirty five careers in law enforcement for
- 11:05Speaker 3: the city. I'm not saying she was the ideal choice
- 11:09Speaker 3: for police chief, but apart according to her records no blemishes.
- 11:12Speaker 3: So a law firm with twenty twenty hindsights been retained
- 11:16Speaker 3: to go back and look through her thirty five years
- 11:18Speaker 3: of service to see if there's anything in there that
- 11:21Speaker 3: could be perceived to be an infraction or policy violation.
- 11:24Speaker 3: Actually it's limited to her time as police chief, so
- 11:27Speaker 3: they won't have thirty five years of work to do,
- 11:29Speaker 3: they'll only have like four. But still as the chief
- 11:34Speaker 3: of police, I imagine she had a laser focus on
- 11:38Speaker 3: her and her actions and her activities I imagine among
- 11:41Speaker 3: the police chief or the brother of the police personnel,
- 11:43Speaker 3: if she had done anything that would qualify as an
- 11:45Speaker 3: infraction or policy violation, we might have heard from one
- 11:48Speaker 3: of the officers on the street that was well violated
- 11:51Speaker 3: or some way infracted. Subject too anyway, and finally determined
- 11:59Speaker 3: Ifius has quote disregarded best practices in the running of
- 12:03Speaker 3: the CPD to the detriment of public safety and crime prevention,
- 12:07Speaker 3: which of course perhaps goes back to her fulfilling the
- 12:11Speaker 3: objectives of the city administration rather than following best practices
- 12:16Speaker 3: in the running the Cincinnai Police Department. It's okay. The
- 12:19Speaker 3: law firm's going to find out the answers to all
- 12:21Speaker 3: these questions, and they will, I guess by eleven fifty
- 12:24Speaker 3: nine pm December thirty First, the agreement says that the
- 12:26Speaker 3: maximum compensation under the contract forty thousand dollars with a
- 12:32Speaker 3: tenetive date ending in December, and the end of December
- 12:35Speaker 3: forty thousand dollars. I don't know. As an attorney, having
- 12:38Speaker 3: practiced law for a lot of years sixteen specifically active practice,
- 12:42Speaker 3: I don't know that I can necessarily tell you ahead
- 12:44Speaker 3: of time, how much work any lawyers group is going
- 12:46Speaker 3: to do or are going to have to do to
- 12:48Speaker 3: fulfill those objectives in there. I don't know how much
- 12:52Speaker 3: work it's going to how much paper is there, how
- 12:53Speaker 3: many hours are we going to have to review? How
- 12:55Speaker 3: do you pull forty thousand dollars as a max out
- 12:58Speaker 3: of your sphincter and put it into a contract whatever.
- 13:01Speaker 3: I guess they put the brakes on once they reach
- 13:03Speaker 3: the forty thousand dollar mark. And trust me, because the
- 13:05Speaker 3: lawyer fees ranging between four to twenty five an hour
- 13:08Speaker 3: and two hudred and fifty per hour, they'll reach that
- 13:10Speaker 3: number very quickly, probably before December thirty first, and probably
- 13:14Speaker 3: before the work is done, which means they'll go back
- 13:17Speaker 3: to the city and say, hey, the work's not done.
- 13:18Speaker 3: We're going to need an extension of this contractual limitation
- 13:21Speaker 3: of forty thousand dollars going to get more money. The
- 13:23Speaker 3: answer will certainly be yes. Council Member Walsh quote, we
- 13:28Speaker 3: barely got more of a heads up than you did
- 13:31Speaker 3: speaking with Fox nineteen you news reporters regarding the Frost
- 13:35Speaker 3: Brown Todd. That's a law firm regarding the Frost Brown
- 13:38Speaker 3: Todd hiring. We're using a source of funds that we
- 13:40Speaker 3: don't know what the source is. That doesn't need council's approval.
- 13:45Speaker 5: Huh.
- 13:45Speaker 3: Flying underneath council's radar, you'd think they'd have some say
- 13:48Speaker 3: in the matter, considering it's well, the expenditure is Cincinnati
- 13:51Speaker 3: taxpayer dollars. Add that to the equation before you go
- 13:56Speaker 3: in and vote. Mike's on the phone. It's on or
- 13:59Speaker 3: flight day, out of time. I'll get you right out
- 14:00Speaker 3: of the gate, Mic, I promise you be right back.
- 14:03Speaker 4: This is fifty five shoot talk.
- 14:05Speaker 3: Station on a flight trist eight, last one of the year.
- 14:11Speaker 3: Get to CDG tonight, be there around eight thirty with
- 14:14Speaker 3: the thousands of folks who will be there along with
- 14:16Speaker 3: my submarine friend Cribbage. Mike, welcome back you down at
- 14:19Speaker 3: CBG right now.
- 14:20Speaker 6: I bet yes, sir. About five minutes here, the bag
- 14:24Speaker 6: pipes will start cranking up and we will kick off
- 14:26Speaker 6: our sendoff ceremony here at CBG for eighty five Vietnam
- 14:31Speaker 6: veterans and three Korean War veterans.
- 14:33Speaker 3: That's amazing. That is so are you flying on the flight, Mike.
- 14:37Speaker 6: I will be on the flight. Yes, I figured too.
- 14:39Speaker 6: Is a continguency. Maybe our four buses could camp outside
- 14:42Speaker 6: Chuck Schumer's office and maybe get the bill passed to
- 14:45Speaker 6: the Senate. So we'll do what we can, but it
- 14:48Speaker 6: should be all systems normal. We did find out today though,
- 14:52Speaker 6: that we're just going to have to do a drive
- 14:54Speaker 6: by past the Air Force Memorial, But other than that,
- 14:57Speaker 6: everything was as we'd normally do in DC as far
- 15:01Speaker 6: as having these veterans visit their memorials. And I couldn't
- 15:04Speaker 6: help but think these three consecutive Tuesdays in a row,
- 15:08Speaker 6: with today with the honor flight, next Tuesday with Election Day,
- 15:11Speaker 6: and then the following Tuesday is Veterans Day. So if
- 15:14Speaker 6: people are available, there is no better way to celebrate
- 15:17Speaker 6: veteran then be here tonight, enjoy the patriotism and shake
- 15:21Speaker 6: a veteran's hand.
- 15:22Speaker 3: Yeah, that's it's it's so true, Mike. And what a
- 15:24Speaker 3: beautiful display of patriotism, which we certainly need these days,
- 15:28Speaker 3: you know. And it's interesting, it's a good thing you
- 15:30Speaker 3: didn't that the honor flight isn't going when Barack Obama
- 15:33Speaker 3: had this shutdown, because he would have shut down the
- 15:36Speaker 3: memorials that you're going to see by putting up barriers
- 15:38Speaker 3: and barricades.
- 15:40Speaker 6: There's a legendary story. It wasn't our group, but supposedly
- 15:44Speaker 6: during that shutdown, one of the honor flights Back then too,
- 15:47Speaker 6: there were several World War Two veterans and they said,
- 15:50Speaker 6: I stormed the beaches of Normandy. There's no snow fence
- 15:53Speaker 6: that's going to keep me from seeing my work. And
- 15:55Speaker 6: they went right through. So I would have loved have
- 15:57Speaker 6: been there for that day.
- 15:58Speaker 3: Amen, brother, who's gonna stop them?
- 16:02Speaker 5: Right?
- 16:03Speaker 3: Who's gonna do that? You got a World War Two
- 16:05Speaker 3: veteran I wantn't do his seated egg memorial, And you
- 16:07Speaker 3: got a fence up which you can hop over, even
- 16:10Speaker 3: if World War two vetterna hop over the fence. Yeah,
- 16:12Speaker 3: don't mess with them. Don't mess with them. They liberated
- 16:15Speaker 3: the world and they're damn well going to see the
- 16:17Speaker 3: memorial and I'm glad that they are open for your visitation.
- 16:20Speaker 3: Is there a reason the Air Force Memorial is gonna
- 16:23Speaker 3: be a drive by?
- 16:24Speaker 5: Uh?
- 16:25Speaker 6: Cheryl pop Our CEO just got the word on Monday. So,
- 16:28Speaker 6: and it's a lot of these, like the restrooms are
- 16:31Speaker 6: run by the Park Service. But she said this actually
- 16:33Speaker 6: came down from the Air Force itself. So huh, maybe
- 16:36Speaker 6: we should go to a swing by Pete Hexas office too.
- 16:40Speaker 6: Just the Navy would never do that.
- 16:43Speaker 3: No, No, that's right. God bless the American veteran and
- 16:48Speaker 3: of course Courbage, Mike. God bless you for your service
- 16:50Speaker 3: to our country and your continued service by working with
- 16:53Speaker 3: Honor Flight and doing such a wonderful job. Mike, I
- 16:55Speaker 3: appreciate you chiming on show up tonight be it CVG.
- 16:58Speaker 3: Just get there a little bit early. You want to
- 16:59Speaker 3: be there at least played about eight thirty or about
- 17:01Speaker 3: eight thirty, right, Mike.
- 17:03Speaker 6: Eight a thirty. Get a parking spot. Yeah, because if
- 17:05Speaker 6: everything goes, the parade should start quarter to nine, nine o'clock.
- 17:09Speaker 3: Fantastic. Last time you hit about two thousand folks there.
- 17:13Speaker 6: That's usually ever since we've been in this new area.
- 17:15Speaker 6: And what we like seeing too, I call them the
- 17:17Speaker 6: alumni and when we get a lot of the yellow shirts,
- 17:19Speaker 6: and that's what the veterans wear because they know what
- 17:22Speaker 6: it was like when they were doing that parade. To
- 17:23Speaker 6: see them come back, and of course all the family
- 17:25Speaker 6: members are there, and especially now the school's back in session,
- 17:29Speaker 6: I know we're going to see boys Scouts, girls, Scouts,
- 17:31Speaker 6: kids from elementary school. And that's how I've been doing
- 17:34Speaker 6: this now for twelve years. And it still gets the
- 17:36Speaker 6: hair to stand up on the back of my neck.
- 17:38Speaker 3: Yes, I'm certain it does, because just hearing about those
- 17:41Speaker 3: young people being there and supporting the American veterans, it
- 17:44Speaker 3: does the same thing to me. Mike, Thank you again,
- 17:47Speaker 3: appreciate you chiming in and best of luck and safe
- 17:50Speaker 3: travels for everyone on the flight.

- 18:50Speaker 3: I'm like, wait a second, the weather's nothing like what
- 18:52Speaker 3: I was told it was going to be like today.
- 18:54Speaker 3: So I get it. I hear it, I know it.
- 18:56Speaker 3: I don't write it, I just read it.
- 18:58Speaker 5: All right.
- 18:58Speaker 7: We all know you're just the voice, you're not the
- 19:01Speaker 7: guy that wrote it out. And as long as as
- 19:04Speaker 7: long as you don't try to do the traffic before
- 19:07Speaker 7: five forty, you're good shaped. So that that's that's been
- 19:11Speaker 7: known to happen before, hasn't it It has Uh? And
- 19:13Speaker 7: and by the way, uh, even though the boss had
- 19:17Speaker 7: to fill in for for Joe yesterday, UH, I reassured
- 19:21Speaker 7: Joe his job is not jeopardy. He's he's in pretty
- 19:23Speaker 7: good shape. He's locked in pretty good right right.
- 19:27Speaker 5: Uh.
- 19:28Speaker 7: You're talking about the left and malism and the different
- 19:32Speaker 7: variations of of and that we've seen over the years,
- 19:36Speaker 7: and and we've learned about through uh, through learning about
- 19:41Speaker 7: history of what the left looks like, and you know
- 19:44Speaker 7: all the different names we can use for it. Uh.
- 19:47Speaker 7: I heard a word yesterday about it seductive. The the
- 19:51Speaker 7: the left has a lot of seductive language and and
- 19:56Speaker 7: their their the planks of their platform for for people
- 19:59Speaker 7: who who have the you know, are young and don't
- 20:02Speaker 7: have the experience. As you mentioned earlier, people who are
- 20:06Speaker 7: you know, refer to like bleeding heart liberals. It's very
- 20:09Speaker 7: seductive language. It pulls you in and and causes you
- 20:13Speaker 7: to believe something that common sense tells you, well, that's
- 20:16Speaker 7: not really possible, that's not really possible. And then and
- 20:22Speaker 7: then you start really paying attention, you understand what's really
- 20:26Speaker 7: going on there. And I'm saying I'm saying all this
- 20:28Speaker 7: because I want to encourage people to not not think, oh,
- 20:31Speaker 7: we're screwed. Uh No, not necessarily. What you're seeing you
- 20:36Speaker 7: with all this violence that you mentioned is the Left
- 20:39Speaker 7: becoming unhinged because they're not winning like they used to.
- 20:43Speaker 7: You're losing ground they have they have a lot of
- 20:46Speaker 7: people will put you in that in that number that
- 20:49Speaker 7: are speaking out against it and and and are not
- 20:52Speaker 7: afraid to say what they think and uh, and point
- 20:55Speaker 7: out the truth and just share facts. I mean, just
- 20:58Speaker 7: the just the stuff you're talking about about the City
- 21:01Speaker 7: of Cincinnati is just eye opening. How ridiculous that administration
- 21:06Speaker 7: is and behind the scenes. And if we're gonna take
- 21:09Speaker 7: this council member's word, uh, you're not even letting your
- 21:13Speaker 7: counsel know what you're doing.
- 21:15Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 21:15Speaker 7: Uh. And money from somewhere that we don't know where
- 21:18Speaker 7: it's coming from.
- 21:20Speaker 3: Yeah, it's this dysfunction level has reached I think epic proportions.
- 21:28Speaker 7: Right. And and keep in mind as you hear that
- 21:30Speaker 7: that money that they don't know where it's coming from,
- 21:33Speaker 7: we all know exactly where it's coming from. It's not
- 21:35Speaker 7: coming out of their pocket. It's coming out of yours, voters.
- 21:40Speaker 7: Your money is being taken and used for things. Your
- 21:44Speaker 7: money is being given away as candy for people to hey,
- 21:48Speaker 7: keep voting for us. Here's some more free stuff that
- 21:51Speaker 7: is your money that they're giving away. You know. One
- 21:54Speaker 7: of the you know, biggest parts of the story about
- 21:57Speaker 7: the you know, the White House ballroom is is the
- 21:59Speaker 7: private money going into that. And they it just it
- 22:03Speaker 7: drives them nuts because they they don't have anything to
- 22:07Speaker 7: counter except your money. They're stealing your money to get
- 22:11Speaker 7: their way. They're stealing your money to get in and
- 22:14Speaker 7: stay in office, and they're using your money to ruin
- 22:18Speaker 7: this country. And of course you got you got rhinos,
- 22:21Speaker 7: you got some, You got some Republicans that are just greedy,
- 22:24Speaker 7: so we got to watch out for them. They may
- 22:26Speaker 7: not necessarily be rhinos, but they're greedy. And then of
- 22:28Speaker 7: course we got rhinos who are basically Democrats but call
- 22:32Speaker 7: themselves Republicans. And of course we got the Democrats who
- 22:35Speaker 7: are just full throated with this liberal left ideology. Let's
- 22:39Speaker 7: not vote for any of them. Let's find some fiscal
- 22:42Speaker 7: conservatives and let's get it. And I'm encouraging you because
- 22:46Speaker 7: it's working. We're gaining ground back. Keep up the good work,
- 22:50Speaker 7: pay attention to what you're doing. Vote these people out,
- 22:53Speaker 7: don't vote rhino and don't vote Democrat.
- 22:55Speaker 3: Have a great day you do the same time, appreciate that.
- 22:58Speaker 3: And a nod to Richard who he lives in Ludlow, Kentucky,
- 23:02Speaker 3: and he was talking to one of his employees who

- 23:06Speaker 3: me about recent history, he says, in the city with
- 23:08Speaker 3: the current mayor and the city council. It wasn't good.
- 23:10Speaker 3: They were gonna throw the bums out campaign, and it worked.
- 23:13Speaker 3: All four council members plus the mayor were ousted for
- 23:16Speaker 3: a clean slate. It's only a week before the election,
- 23:18Speaker 3: he says, But please start saying the phrase throw the
- 23:21Speaker 3: bums out during your show. I hope at least there's
- 23:23Speaker 3: a majority of newcomers and returning sound thinking members will
- 23:27Speaker 3: take a stand against aftab knucklehead all the ust Richard,

- 24:13Speaker 3: for nine to fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty
- 24:15Speaker 3: two to three talk. We get to New Jersey where
- 24:17Speaker 3: we have a woman who pleaded guilty to a four
- 24:20Speaker 3: to a m torching of a man's home after he
- 24:24Speaker 3: fell asleep inside the home and stood her up on
- 24:27Speaker 3: a booty call. What I'm just reading it? Friday court hearing,
- 24:34Speaker 3: Taija Russell, who's thirty five, admitted to aggravated arson, second
- 24:39Speaker 3: degree folloning and a plead deal. Prosecutors agreed to recommend
- 24:42Speaker 3: an eight year prison term, of which Russell will be
- 24:46Speaker 3: statutorily required to serve eighty five percent that will be
- 24:50Speaker 3: six and a half years. Russell and dited on of
- 24:52Speaker 3: five other charges, including attempted murder aggravated assault, but as
- 24:55Speaker 3: part of the deal, prosecutors moved to dismiss those counts
- 24:59Speaker 3: when she's sentenced in January. Anyways, detailed on the court records,
- 25:02Speaker 3: Russell traveled to the Woodbury home of victim Curtis Stokes,
- 25:07Speaker 3: who told police that he invited the defendant into his
- 25:10Speaker 3: residence to have sexual intercourse. Stokes, out of the Russell
- 25:14Speaker 3: was a side chick that's in quote with whom he
- 25:19Speaker 3: had been having sex. They be friends with benefits anyway.
- 25:26Speaker 3: The pair is what is described as pre dawn communication.
- 25:29Speaker 3: It consisted of Russell texting Stokes hello, to which he
- 25:33Speaker 3: romantically responded, bring yah hold on, let me get a reading,
- 25:44Speaker 3: okay He said, yes, bring yah ass that's in quotes.
- 25:49Speaker 5: Now.
- 25:49Speaker 3: I don't know how you can show up without it
- 25:58Speaker 3: reminds me of that song from what was it back
- 26:00Speaker 3: in the nineties, Detachable Penis. Anyway, by the time Russell arrived,
- 26:05Speaker 3: Stokes had fallen asleep and didn't respond to her. At
- 26:07Speaker 3: the door, Russell mad sent a text complaining you wasted
- 26:12Speaker 3: my money to come out here. Having received no reply,
- 26:15Speaker 3: Russell then texted a series of threats, you smoked, and
- 26:20Speaker 3: I see you want to die, and also I swear
- 26:24Speaker 3: to God I hope you die. At that point, Russell
- 26:27Speaker 3: went to a Conicco gas station, bought lighter, fluid matches
- 26:31Speaker 3: and a cigarette lighter, return to the home and set
- 26:33Speaker 3: it fire outside the rear apartment's sole entrance. Idiots doing

- 27:11Speaker 3: It said. During that period of time, Russell gave birth
- 27:13Speaker 3: to a child who could be seen with her during
- 27:15Speaker 3: one video court appearance. Oh how lovely. We'll have that
- 27:20Speaker 3: fond memory to share with each other as we get
- 27:22Speaker 3: older together. Five forty five. Jay's on the phone, Jay,
- 27:25Speaker 3: You're next. As soon as I get back, and after
- 27:27Speaker 3: I mentioned cross country Morgan five forty nine on a Tuesday,
- 27:31Speaker 3: Happy win to you. Before I get to this stacker, stupid,
- 27:33Speaker 3: I'm going to go over to the phones. Five three
- 27:34Speaker 3: seven fifty eight two three Talk Jay. Good to hear
- 27:38Speaker 3: from you again. Welcome back to the fifty five Carsey
- 27:40Speaker 3: Morning Show.
- 27:41Speaker 2: Hey, good morning, Brian, and all is well on this
- 27:45Speaker 2: glorious government shut down, I think we are at about
- 27:47Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty eight billion dollars of discretionary spending.
- 27:51Speaker 2: Just a reminder to the listeners that there's only like
- 27:55Speaker 2: twenty five percent of the government shut down, so seventy
- 27:57Speaker 2: five percent of the waste is still in place, going
- 28:00Speaker 2: on day after day, so nobody panicked that this government
- 28:05Speaker 2: has to be reopened. Shifting from federal to state. I
- 28:09Speaker 2: heard and I always enjoyed listening to Donovan O'Neill from
- 28:14Speaker 2: American Prosperity whenever you have them on. He's the gentleman
- 28:20Speaker 2: that educated me years ago about the amount of Medicaid
- 28:23Speaker 2: fraud in Ohio and we were worse in the nation
- 28:26Speaker 2: at forty five percent. Disappointed to hear him say recently
- 28:31Speaker 2: during an interview he was talking about he went down
- 28:34Speaker 2: to the path that a lot of people are going down,
- 28:37Speaker 2: saying we can't get rid of property text because what
- 28:40Speaker 2: are they going to replace it with? And you, my friend,
- 28:43Speaker 2: I stood up and cheered. You said, well, some of
- 28:46Speaker 2: our listeners suggest that there's plenty of money in medicaid
- 28:49Speaker 2: fraud that could pay for that. And his response was, yeah,
- 28:54Speaker 2: but if they do an audit, it looks like they're
- 28:57Speaker 2: only going to find one billion dollars if that's true.
- 29:02Speaker 7: Well, if that's.
- 29:03Speaker 2: True, that means we went from forty three percent improper
- 29:08Speaker 2: payment rate to two percent with a national average of
- 29:11Speaker 2: twenty percent. I don't believe that happened at all. And
- 29:15Speaker 2: the last time I heard somebody start talking about, yeah,
- 29:18Speaker 2: we don't need to do an audit is when Biden
- 29:20Speaker 2: won the election and everybody was saying there's not enough
- 29:24Speaker 2: fraud to do an investigation. Well, from my understanding of
- 29:28Speaker 2: an audit, you have no idea what the outcome is
- 29:32Speaker 2: going to be until you do the audit.
- 29:34Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good point, Jay, How could you possibly know?
- 29:38Speaker 3: It's like the law firms, but bill's been captain forty
- 29:41Speaker 3: grand for specific work to be performed, as if you
- 29:44Speaker 3: can cap the billable time ahead of time, not knowing
- 29:47Speaker 3: what the work is going to require doing, I mean,
- 29:50Speaker 3: it's the same damn thing, correct.
- 29:52Speaker 2: So let me give you the real numbers where I
- 29:54Speaker 2: think they are that if we say an Ohio checkbook
- 29:58Speaker 2: dot gov, which you turned me on years ago, if
- 30:01Speaker 2: people can get on air and see where the Ohio
- 30:03Speaker 2: is spending your money, forty five billion dollars is in medicaid.
- 30:08Speaker 2: Let's just assume we have the national average of a
- 30:11Speaker 2: twenty percent improper payment rate. I think it's forty percent,
- 30:15Speaker 2: but let's say twenty that's nine billion dollars. What does
- 30:19Speaker 2: it take to fun public schools about fifteen billion? So
- 30:23Speaker 2: if we say that, what if we say it's forty
- 30:26Speaker 2: percent and forty five percent in proper payment, that puts
- 30:29Speaker 2: us right around eighteen billion dollars with an average spend
- 30:33Speaker 2: of public schools of fifteen billion dollars. So Donovan, my friend,
- 30:38Speaker 2: I don't I'm not sure what happened. He was also
- 30:40Speaker 2: handing out awards to Matt Huffman. Matt Huffman who took
- 30:43Speaker 2: campaign money from Cleveland Brown's and then mysteriously they got
- 30:47Speaker 2: a six hundred million dollar stadium. But I would tell
- 30:51Speaker 2: the listeners, hang in there, don't worry about what are
- 30:54Speaker 2: they going to replace it with medicaid fraud? Don't forget
- 30:57Speaker 2: Dwine has three billion dollars in a rainy day. Nobody
- 31:01Speaker 2: can explain to me what the hell that is. That
- 31:03Speaker 2: is tax that we paid more than what they needed
- 31:05Speaker 2: and it goes into a rainy day fund. I guess
- 31:08Speaker 2: at the discretion of the governor. Nobody knows. They have
- 31:12Speaker 2: plenty of money. Vote this thing down, get rid of
- 31:16Speaker 2: property tax. They can figure it out. And this is
- 31:19Speaker 2: a result of voting Rhino. I'm going to say that
- 31:22Speaker 2: we've done a decent job in a state not voting Democrat,
- 31:25Speaker 2: but we need to stay on track. Don't vote Rhino,
- 31:29Speaker 2: don't vote Democrats, and have a good day of Bryan.
- 31:33Speaker 3: Thanks Jay, I appreciate your your laser like focus on
- 31:37Speaker 3: that whole fraud issue. Fraud, waste and abuse. That is
- 31:40Speaker 3: something that should not exist and any company out in
- 31:43Speaker 3: the world it would not exist because, well, your bottom
- 31:46Speaker 3: line is impacted and your goal, of course is to
- 31:48Speaker 3: maintain profit, profitability, employment for your employees, et cetera, et cetera,
- 31:53Speaker 3: So you don't allow it. Government doesn't have to worry
- 31:55Speaker 3: about that because frankly, they do not care about responsible
- 32:00Speaker 3: stewards of your money. It's just too easy to ignore it.
- 32:04Speaker 3: They can take whatever they want, all right, Joe, cue
- 32:07Speaker 3: it up, gonna have it. Give an award out because
- 32:09Speaker 3: we have one opportunity for one more stack of stupid
- 32:11Speaker 3: or a stack of stupid. We got to Addison, Illinois.

- 35:39Speaker 3: to be an amazing power youth seminar Maus America. She
- 35:43Speaker 3: lived through the Cultural Revolution, she moved here and then
- 35:46Speaker 3: saw back in from nineteen eighty six forward. How unbelievably
- 35:50Speaker 3: horrific what she is witnessing here in America is following
- 35:54Speaker 3: exactly what happened in China. We are being duped, manipulated,
- 35:58Speaker 3: and it's all in the name of moving toward Marxism
- 36:01Speaker 3: and taking away You're right, the bottom line, Daniel Davis
- 36:04Speaker 3: Deep Dive at eight thirty. Yes, Bright Bart inside Scoop.
- 36:06Speaker 3: I didn't mention that because apparently they didn't get back
- 36:08Speaker 3: with Joe Strekker still wondering what's going on with them.
- 36:11Speaker 3: I don't think they've disappeared we'll get the bright Bart
- 36:13Speaker 3: inside scoop in the future, but the Daniel Davis deep
- 36:16Speaker 3: dive today, of course, the latest on Russia, Ukraine, Israel
- 36:18Speaker 3: and Hamas then Senator John Houstill would returned to the
- 36:21Speaker 3: program at eight forty to talk about the shutdown. If
- 36:25Speaker 3: you want to talk about something, call me five one three, seven,
- 36:27Speaker 3: four nine to fifty five hundred, eight hundred eight two
- 36:28Speaker 3: three talk pound five fifty on eight and t phone.
- 36:31Speaker 3: No Moss on the shutdown moving in that direction, Perhaps
- 36:34Speaker 3: it's going to get a lot worse. Maybe this is
- 36:36Speaker 3: what the Democrats are waiting for, when more people start
- 36:39Speaker 3: feeling the pain of the recognition that they are hooked
- 36:42Speaker 3: up to the Biblical court of government to live. And
- 36:45Speaker 3: that's what I'm kind of seeing here. So the longer
- 36:49Speaker 3: the shutdown looms, the more benefits will be cut off.
- 36:51Speaker 3: Let's start with SNAP food assistants. I guess more than
- 36:54Speaker 3: forty million people are on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program SNAP.
- 36:59Speaker 3: They say it's going to run out of money on Sunday,
- 37:01Speaker 3: or start running out of money on Saturday. Rather, Trump
- 37:03Speaker 3: administration may not be able to land any emergency funds
- 37:07Speaker 3: to keep the food benefits coming. Twenty five states already
- 37:10Speaker 3: planning to cut off SNAP benefits. Some lawmakers pressing the
- 37:14Speaker 3: Trump administration to tap into an agricultural contingency fund to
- 37:17Speaker 3: pay some of the benefits. But apparently the agricultural contingency fund,
- 37:22Speaker 3: what is that and why does it exist? For what
- 37:24Speaker 3: reason does it exist? I can't answer that question, but
- 37:26Speaker 3: it's there, but five billion dollars in it, which is
- 37:31Speaker 3: less than the nine billion dollars which is needed to
- 37:35Speaker 3: cover food age just through November. Yeah, let that sink in.
- 37:41Speaker 3: Head Start. Federal funding is going to stop flowing Saturday
- 37:45Speaker 3: to some, not all, of the early childhood education programs.
- 37:50Speaker 3: More than one hundred and thirty programs and head Start
- 37:52Speaker 3: set to miss federal funding. Forty one states and Puerto
- 37:55Speaker 3: Rico are going to be hit. Fifty nine thousand children that,
- 37:58Speaker 3: according to the National Headstart is Sociation, had start got
- 38:04Speaker 3: sort about sixty five hundred children didn't get their usual
- 38:06Speaker 3: cash after funding first laps October first. The Wick Nutrition
- 38:12Speaker 3: Assistance Program had already been bullied by funding earlier in
- 38:16Speaker 3: the month from the for the federal nutrition Assistance program
- 38:19Speaker 3: that serves seven million low income mothers and babies. The coffers,
- 38:24Speaker 3: they say, are going to dry up on Saturday unless
- 38:26Speaker 3: the administration taps another three hundred million in emergency cash
- 38:33Speaker 3: for the Wick program. Emergency cash. Somewhere out there there
- 38:36Speaker 3: is a pile of what is called emergency cash. Isn't
- 38:40Speaker 3: it weird?
- 38:41Speaker 4: You know?
- 38:41Speaker 3: Jay talked about the three billion dollar reserve fund. We
- 38:44Speaker 3: have rainy day fund here in the state of Ohio.
- 38:46Speaker 3: You kind of scratch your head and wonder where are
- 38:47Speaker 3: all these extra funds coming from? That This money even
- 38:51Speaker 3: lurks in the background while we dig ourselves a massive
- 38:53Speaker 3: deficit hole. Seems to be puzzling. Well, it is to
- 38:56Speaker 3: me anyway. And then there's the pesky essential air service.
- 39:00Speaker 3: So of course the air traffic controllers are considered essential,
- 39:04Speaker 3: but that doesn't mean they aren't or they have to
- 39:06Speaker 3: show up to work. They have six days, apparently they're
- 39:09Speaker 3: using them. More than fifty six hundred flights delayed yesterday
- 39:13Speaker 3: just in the United States, primarily due to air traffic
- 39:16Speaker 3: air traffic controllers staffing shortages. FAA said ground delay programs
- 39:21Speaker 3: were put into place a major airparks, notably Newark, New Jersey, Austin, Texas, Dallas,
- 39:27Speaker 3: Fort Worth International Southeast flights also experienced delays to do
- 39:33Speaker 3: staffing shortages at Atlanta Terminal Radar Approach Control that oversees
- 39:37Speaker 3: much of the region's air traffic record of the FAA.
- 39:41Speaker 3: FAA sided Air traffic controller absences is the main factor
- 39:44Speaker 3: behind the well delays happened the prior day, October twenty six,
- 39:48Speaker 3: eighty eight hundred flights were delayed nationwide. You know, some
- 39:51Speaker 3: multiple hour shutdowns in Lax and others. So they're accruing
- 39:58Speaker 3: pay and they're just taking their vacation days anyway, So
- 40:03Speaker 3: military pay members of the military are going to miss
- 40:05Speaker 3: paychecks Friday unless there's some sort of intervention. I know
- 40:11Speaker 3: Trump did tap into some money earlier, six point five
- 40:15Speaker 3: billion from military research and development programs. Well they got
- 40:21Speaker 3: their pay because the programs weren't funded. But they say
- 40:24Speaker 3: it's going to be difficult to do the same thing.
- 40:26Speaker 3: That pot of cash has about had rather ten billion
- 40:29Speaker 3: dollars before the President pulled out the first six and
- 40:32Speaker 3: a half billion. So those funds are going to run out.
- 40:35Speaker 3: And of course the Democrats rejected the idea of continuing
- 40:38Speaker 3: to pay servicemen and other central employees. They aren't going
- 40:41Speaker 3: to have any of that, Well, what do the employees
- 40:43Speaker 3: have to say about it? Oh, looky here, the inmates
- 40:49Speaker 3: are starting to rebel. It's time to pass a clean
- 40:55Speaker 3: continuing resolution and end this shut down today. That's a quote,
- 41:02Speaker 3: oddly enough, a quote from a guy named Edward Kelly,
- 41:05Speaker 3: who Edward Kelly, who's the president of the American Federation
- 41:08Speaker 3: of Government Employees eight hundred thousand strong, calling the situation
- 41:15Speaker 3: an avoidable crisis. He did harming families and communities, says
- 41:19Speaker 3: both political parties have made their point, and still there
- 41:22Speaker 3: is no clear end in sight. They're calling for the
- 41:24Speaker 3: continuing resolution. If you've had they passed it. The House passed,
- 41:27Speaker 3: but already this is what now the employee union is advocating. Look,
- 41:32Speaker 3: the House did its job, continue keeping funding levels of
- 41:34Speaker 3: the Joe Biden era. Let's get this over with and
- 41:38Speaker 3: sign that AMCR. Democrats in the Senate, let's put us
- 41:42Speaker 3: back to work. Let's ensure that our paychecks come in.
- 41:45Speaker 3: Let's get rid of this avoidable crisis.
- 41:49Speaker 8: Hm hm.
- 41:54Speaker 5: I.
- 41:54Speaker 3: That seems to be a positive development. So maybe that
- 41:58Speaker 3: will be the extra of the the camel's back, or
- 42:01Speaker 3: maybe the tens of millions of people who rely on
- 42:05Speaker 3: the government to eat. Maybe that will result in the
- 42:09Speaker 3: government reopening. Can't answer the question, but I do view
- 42:13Speaker 3: the federal employee union calls and this is a direct
- 42:17Speaker 3: This call is directed at Democrats. They're embracing the concept
- 42:24Speaker 3: of the continued resolution that the Republicans passed already, that
- 42:26Speaker 3: they've been trying to pass now for the past month.
- 42:32Speaker 3: So if you're keeping score of the in the win
- 42:35Speaker 3: loss comments to who's going to get ultimately blamed for
- 42:37Speaker 3: this shutdown, there's one more chit on the side of
- 42:41Speaker 3: the Democrats being blamed for it. The unions, which are
- 42:45Speaker 3: typically you know, of course, Democrat backed, Democrats supported traditionally. Anyway,
- 42:52Speaker 3: we saw with the Trump election that maybe things are
- 42:55Speaker 3: changing in this country of ours. Populist man he is,
- 42:58Speaker 3: and that populist nature does resonate quite well with the
- 43:02Speaker 3: regular run of the mill union person out in the
- 43:04Speaker 3: world who appreciate the reality what's going on. This is stupid,
- 43:09Speaker 3: it's avoidable. The question is how much pain are the
- 43:12Speaker 3: Democrats going to make us go through before we get
- 43:17Speaker 3: to move forward with this? And I suppose there's always
- 43:21Speaker 3: the possibility that the Republicans will capitulate and extend these
- 43:25Speaker 3: subsidies on into the future, and notwithstanding the fact that
- 43:28Speaker 3: the Democrats are the ones putting the deadline on the
- 43:30Speaker 3: subsidies in the first place. I swear the only conclusion
- 43:34Speaker 3: I can reach, and I think it's a logical one.
- 43:37Speaker 3: When they put the deadline in, they really thought either
- 43:40Speaker 3: Hillary Clinton was going to become president or someone other
- 43:43Speaker 3: than Donald Trump would be president in this administration. I
- 43:47Speaker 3: think we all know what they did to themselves with
- 43:50Speaker 3: running Joe Biden in the first place and then doing
- 43:52Speaker 3: a quick swap at the end with Kamala Harris. Yeah,
- 43:56Speaker 3: that didn't work out obviously real well for them, and
- 43:58Speaker 3: now they have to face their own deadline. How can
- 44:02Speaker 3: it possibly be the Republican's fault? Five one three, seven,

- 44:31Speaker 3: I was so moved by the post yesterday from CINCINNTI
- 44:34Speaker 3: then and now Jack Morgan, I think is the moderator
- 44:37Speaker 3: of the page. But he's been doing some biographies of
- 44:41Speaker 3: sort of famous Cincinnatians and he did one for my
- 44:44Speaker 3: dad and I just it just I'm seriously allergy outbreak
- 44:48Speaker 3: when I read it. And I was just been thinking
- 44:49Speaker 3: about my dad NonStop since yesterday when I first encountered
- 44:53Speaker 3: this just beautiful commentary from from Jack. And I had
- 44:56Speaker 3: several listeners reach out to me and said, why don't
- 44:58Speaker 3: you read it? Why don't you read it? So I'm
- 44:59Speaker 3: gonna take a moment and just go ahead and read
- 45:00Speaker 3: it if you don't mind. And thanks in advance to
- 45:03Speaker 3: everyone who listened to my father and for years and
- 45:05Speaker 3: years and this again, I'm coming up on my twentieth
- 45:08Speaker 3: year in radio, and every time someone said, oh, I
- 45:10Speaker 3: used to listen to your dad, I always thank them
- 45:13Speaker 3: and you for putting me through college. And Jack writes
- 45:19Speaker 3: about my dad. Granny was spotted on Fountain Square. Jerry
- 45:22Speaker 3: Thomas born nineteen thirty nine, passed away at eighty three.
- 45:24Speaker 3: Wasn't just a voice on Cincinnati radio. He was the
- 45:27Speaker 3: soul of the city, a presence that made mornings warmer,
- 45:30Speaker 3: afternoon's brighter, and heart's fuller for forty four unforgettable years,
- 45:34Speaker 3: most famously a fifty five KRC. He started at age
- 45:37Speaker 3: nineteen in Paris, Kentucky as a DJ, spent a little
- 45:39Speaker 3: time in Louisville learning his craft, and in nineteen sixty
- 45:42Speaker 3: two he arrived in Cincinnati ready to leave a mark
- 45:44Speaker 3: that would echo through the city for decades. From the
- 45:47Speaker 3: very first broadcast, you could hear it in his voice, warmth,
- 45:49Speaker 3: a humor, a connection that made every listener feel like family.
- 45:53Speaker 3: His show wasn't just about entertainment, was a rallying cry
- 45:56Speaker 3: for the community, a place where the joy, concern, laughter,
- 45:59Speaker 3: and tears were shared in real time. This program was
- 46:01Speaker 3: always ranked in the top ten, but the real measure
- 46:03Speaker 3: of Jerry Thomas wasn't in the numbers. It was the
- 46:06Speaker 3: way he made people feel alive, seen and part of
- 46:09Speaker 3: something bigger than themselves. And then there was Granny, so real,
- 46:14Speaker 3: so vivid, so unforgettable that people actually believe she walked
- 46:17Speaker 3: the streets of Cincinnati. Granny woud appear in Jerry's voice,
- 46:20Speaker 3: a sly wink in the airwaves, a trickster spirit making
- 46:23Speaker 3: the city laugh some jokes. She could be spotted on
- 46:26Speaker 3: Fountain Square, laughing, stirring up the crowd. A character born
- 46:29Speaker 3: from the imagination of a man whose creativity had no bounds.
- 46:33Speaker 3: Granny wasn't just a radio alter ego. She was a
- 46:35Speaker 3: pioneer of personality, humor and human connection, a template for
- 46:39Speaker 3: every dj who would dare to be more than a
- 46:42Speaker 3: voice behind a microphone. And there was a joke of
- 46:45Speaker 3: the day. Each morning, Jerry would break for the news
- 46:47Speaker 3: the community, updates the serious moments and deliver pure, effortless humor,
- 46:52Speaker 3: one simple line, one perfectly time punchline, and the city
- 46:55Speaker 3: would pause, breathe, laugh, and feel a little lighter. Those
- 46:58Speaker 3: moments weren't just jokes. There were small miracles of joy
- 47:01Speaker 3: shared by tens of thousands wh knew that no matter what,
- 47:04Speaker 3: Jerry Thomas had a way of lifting spirits. Jerry's life
- 47:09Speaker 3: wasn't only in the studio. He was popular host on
- 47:11Speaker 3: PM magazine, a dominant golfer at Western Hills Country Club
- 47:14Speaker 3: whose triumphs are still whispered on early morning rounds. He
- 47:18Speaker 3: gave tirelessly to his community. From the del High Skirt Game,
- 47:21Speaker 3: an event full of laughter, fun and local pride to
- 47:24Speaker 3: little league coaching. He taught by example the life's richness
- 47:28Speaker 3: is measured in service and kindness and the joy of
- 47:31Speaker 3: lifting others. Watching him in action was to witness a
- 47:33Speaker 3: man whose heart radiated generosity and warmth, whose laughter was contagious,
- 47:37Speaker 3: whose presence demanded attention without ever seeking it. Then there
- 47:42Speaker 3: was Joan, his beautiful wife, Mom, the love of his life. Amen.
- 47:46Speaker 3: Partnership is a living lesson in devotion, decades shared laughter,
- 47:50Speaker 3: support and unspoken understanding. Together they created a family rooted
- 47:53Speaker 3: in integrity, courage, and love. He mentions my sister and
- 47:57Speaker 3: watch his daughter Lisa rise to the rank of police
- 48:00Speaker 3: attenant of the Cincinnati Police Department brought a quiet, radiant
- 48:03Speaker 3: pride to Jerry that was almost tangible. Her courage and
- 48:07Speaker 3: dedication and integrity were reflections of the values he lived
- 48:10Speaker 3: by and instilled in his family. And he did mention me.
- 48:14Speaker 3: He mentioned listener lunch specifically, and some very kind words Jack,
- 48:17Speaker 3: and I'm not going to pat myself on the back
- 48:19Speaker 3: by reading them, but I appreciate you recognize me, and
- 48:23Speaker 3: the shoes that I cannot fill are still sitting here
- 48:26Speaker 3: beneath the board. Then he goes on. We lost Jerry
- 48:30Speaker 3: at the age of eighty three, and the city felt
- 48:33Speaker 3: that loss deeply. His laughter still echoes in the corners
- 48:36Speaker 3: of the Cincinnati, His generosity still ripples in the community.
- 48:39Speaker 3: His love still lives in the family he nurtured and
- 48:43Speaker 3: the lives he touched. He rallied his city, He lifted hearts.
- 48:46Speaker 3: He crafted a legacy that is impossible to ignore. To
- 48:50Speaker 3: know Jerry Thomas is to love him instantly, to remember
- 48:53Speaker 3: that one person can change a city with humor, courage,
- 48:55Speaker 3: and heart. He made the city believe in itself, and
- 48:58Speaker 3: in every act, every way, every laugh, he reminded us
- 49:02Speaker 3: of what is truly worth, cherishing family, community, and the
- 49:07Speaker 3: courage to live boldly and kindly. It is essential to
- 49:10Speaker 3: document his greatness for Cincinnati, for the world, and for
- 49:12Speaker 3: generations who deserve to know that such a man existed.
- 49:15Speaker 3: A man who made laughter, sacred, community a priority, and
- 49:20Speaker 3: a love a force, and love a force that can
- 49:22Speaker 3: never be measured by anything less than a full heart.
- 49:26Speaker 3: Jack Morgan, Jack, just hitting that allergy mode again. My friend,
- 49:32Speaker 3: cannot thank you enough for remembering my father and the
- 49:36Speaker 3: kind words he passed along about my sister and me

- 50:22Speaker 3: commentary and your support of the sponsors. As I mentioned
- 50:25Speaker 3: real quick here, every time there's a natural disaster someplace
- 50:29Speaker 3: out there, most notably in the world, Matthew twenty five ministries.
- 50:34Speaker 3: Now there are tons of charitable organizations you can go
- 50:36Speaker 3: ahead and donate money to if you care or have
- 50:38Speaker 3: any concern about the soon to be devastating, horrific conditions
- 50:43Speaker 3: that are going to exist in Jamaica and the surrounding areas.
- 50:46Speaker 3: Hurricane Melissa, reportedly one of the strongest hurricanes recorded on
- 50:50Speaker 3: record at the CAT five right now, sustain wins of
- 50:54Speaker 3: one hundred and seventy five miles an hour and they
- 50:55Speaker 3: clocked winds record wins north of two hundred miles per
- 50:59Speaker 3: hour right there heading to a devastate Jamaica. Matthew twenty
- 51:03Speaker 3: five ministries. If you want a dollar to go to
- 51:07Speaker 3: a charity to go for relief, don't give it a
- 51:10Speaker 3: a well United way, because about fifteen cents on the dollar,
- 51:13Speaker 3: and I am joking a little bit will end up
- 51:16Speaker 3: making it to the charitable purpose that you're donating to.
- 51:18Speaker 3: They have a massive, massive bureaucracy. Salaries need to be paid.
- 51:21Speaker 3: None I need to pick on them, but you know
- 51:23Speaker 3: that's an illustration of a sizable bureaucracy that needs to
- 51:27Speaker 3: be funded, which means a lot of your money doesn't
- 51:29Speaker 3: go to where you want it to go. Matthew twenty
- 51:31Speaker 3: five ministries. A dollar is a dollar pretty much effectively
- 51:35Speaker 3: m twenty five m dot org. And apparently because they've
- 51:39Speaker 3: done work in Jamaica already in past years and prior disasters,
- 51:42Speaker 3: they already have the infrastructure set up. They had stuff
- 51:44Speaker 3: on the ground already, and they are prepared to help
- 51:46Speaker 3: help those folks who are desperately going to need your assistance. So,
- 51:50Speaker 3: if you have charity in your heart and you're worried
- 51:52Speaker 3: about the folks that are going to be impacted by
- 51:54Speaker 3: this unbelievably strong hurricane, let me just suggest you don't
- 51:58Speaker 3: have to take my advice, but let me strong. We
- 52:00Speaker 3: suggest Matthew twenty five ministries again at M twenty five
- 52:03Speaker 3: m dot org. Over the local stories. Cincinna Police Department
- 52:07Speaker 3: released a video showing the vandalism the Marty Brenneman statue
- 52:10Speaker 3: outside Great American Ballpark. Idiots doing idiot things anyway. They
- 52:16Speaker 3: started investigating vandalism after they found damage to the microphone
- 52:19Speaker 3: that was attached to the statue. Police say they have
- 52:23Speaker 3: no further information, but are asking anyone with information to
- 52:26Speaker 3: call Detective Blank. He can be reached at five one
- 52:29Speaker 3: three three five two fifty four forty two. Or she
- 52:32Speaker 3: is the case Maybe no no initial name on that,
- 52:34Speaker 3: but five one three three five two fifty four forty
- 52:36Speaker 3: two or I'm guessing crimestoppers are three five two thirty forty.
- 52:41Speaker 3: But they got a video of the guy or it
- 52:43Speaker 3: could be a girl. A girl, I can't quite tell.
- 52:46Speaker 3: In this day and age, who really knows. Uh, we'll
- 52:57Speaker 3: get a Ross Township to people facing charges after a
- 52:59Speaker 3: near crash escalated into a road rage assault. Of course
- 53:03Speaker 3: it did. Fifty one year old James Holbert Junior and
- 53:06Speaker 3: fifty year old Brian Gesner East Feating facing multiple charges.
- 53:10Speaker 3: What happened on October twenty six, According to Ross Township Police,
- 53:13Speaker 3: four thirty pm, officers called a Lark Street in Cincinnati
- 53:17Speaker 3: Brookville Road for a road rage inc and then Holbrook,
- 53:19Speaker 3: driving a Ford F three point fifty on a suspended license,
- 53:23Speaker 3: nearly hit another vehicle. Verbal dispute began quickly evolved into
- 53:26Speaker 3: a physical confrontation. Fifty one year old Holbert returned to
- 53:29Speaker 3: his ford, grabbed a large piece of wood, then through
- 53:34Speaker 3: the wood, through then through the wood through the other
- 53:40Speaker 3: vehicle's window, hitting the victim in the head just away.
- 53:46Speaker 3: Considering this guy's childish actions, Joe, the way he acted
- 53:50Speaker 3: and responded, I don't think we're dealing with a large
- 53:52Speaker 3: piece of wood anyway. Hulbert and Guestner arrested later Holbert's home.
- 53:58Speaker 3: Hilbert was being taken a jail police city threatened to
- 54:01Speaker 3: kill an officer and shoot him in the face. Chief
- 54:05Speaker 3: Robert Gerhart commented, we will not tolerate this type of
- 54:08Speaker 3: violent behavior in Ross Township. If you threaten to harm
- 54:11Speaker 3: our officers in any way, we will seek the maximum
- 54:13Speaker 3: prison sentence possible. Colbert charged with aggravated assault, aggravated menacing,
- 54:18Speaker 3: criminal damaging, driving under license suspension. Ross Township Police didn't
- 54:22Speaker 3: explain what Gesner did during the road rage incident, but
- 54:25Speaker 3: said he was cited for assault and wrongful entrustment of
- 54:29Speaker 3: a motor vehicle. Six point thirty five. Right now fifty

- 55:03Speaker 3: seven thirty for that get some initial details about the
- 55:06Speaker 3: seminar that's taking place. Daniel Davis Deeve dive at eight
- 55:08Speaker 3: thirty and then Senator John Houston. We'll talk about the
- 55:11Speaker 3: shutdown with the Senator coming up at the end of
- 55:13Speaker 3: the eight o'clock hour. Phone calls are always welcome here
- 55:16Speaker 3: and something I'm totally excited about. I'm finally going to
- 55:18Speaker 3: see it in my lifetime. This is something I brought
- 55:20Speaker 3: up many times before, as everyone in my listening audience
- 55:24Speaker 3: knows painfully aware. I don't believe carbon dioxide is a pollutant.
- 55:27Speaker 3: I don't believe our efforts and chasing our tails and
- 55:29Speaker 3: try to eliminate carbon dioxide from the manufacturing processes in
- 55:32Speaker 3: anyplace else that produces carbon dioxide does any wits worth
- 55:36Speaker 3: of good for the world. It may exacerbate other pollutants,
- 55:40Speaker 3: but it isn't a plutant. And the answer to the problem.
- 55:45Speaker 3: If you believe in carbon dioxide is a pollutant and
- 55:47Speaker 3: you want to get rid of it, what is the
- 55:48Speaker 3: answer to unlimited energy supply with zero carbon output? Yes,
- 55:52Speaker 3: it's nuclear of power. Are we ever going to get it?
- 55:55Speaker 3: Our lords and masses have said for no, years and
- 55:57Speaker 3: years and years as we decarbonize and we get rid
- 56:00Speaker 3: of nuclear plants at the same time, which seems to
- 56:02Speaker 3: be the dumbest, dumbest thing ever. Why are we closing
- 56:07Speaker 3: these plants and why don't people wake up to modern technology? Well,
- 56:12Speaker 3: finally talking about this was my submariner friend submarine a friend,
- 56:16Speaker 3: cribbage Mike. Yes, nuclear power has been running America's military
- 56:19Speaker 3: ship since late nineteen fifties without a single incident. Small
- 56:23Speaker 3: nuclear reactors producing a bunch of power. Now welcome and
- 56:26Speaker 3: fast forward to twenty twenty five, and the idea of
- 56:28Speaker 3: small modular reactors has existed for a while. They are
- 56:32Speaker 3: truly amazing. You don't have to worry about waste. You
- 56:35Speaker 3: certainly don't have any carbon output. They put out an
- 56:37Speaker 3: abundance of power. And who's going to bring them to us?
- 56:39Speaker 3: I've initially said it's going to be artificial intelligence. Look,
- 56:43Speaker 3: a dormant nuclear plant in Iowa ploys to power Google's
- 56:46Speaker 3: energy needs. Google needs power, So yesterday they announced his
- 56:50Speaker 3: partnering with next Era Energy to reopen a previously shuttered
- 56:54Speaker 3: nuclear plant called the Dwayne Arnold Energy Center. It closed
- 56:57Speaker 3: five years ago after damage from a windstorm. Well, Google
- 57:01Speaker 3: has a pre existing plan in this particular case. It's
- 57:03Speaker 3: going to spend some money reopen it, and it's going
- 57:05Speaker 3: to use the electricity which never stops. Plant's going to
- 57:12Speaker 3: provide over six hundred megawatts of nuclear energy for not
- 57:16Speaker 3: just Google, for the regional grid, meaning that citizens are
- 57:20Speaker 3: going to also benefit from this private company's investment in
- 57:24Speaker 3: its own power needs a spillover effect. Will anybody stand
- 57:28Speaker 3: in Google's way and opening this Hell, no guarantee they won't.
- 57:31Speaker 3: They're well connected. You and I apparently are not well
- 57:34Speaker 3: connected enough to get a constant source of electricity in
- 57:37Speaker 3: our world.
- 57:38Speaker 4: I e.
- 57:38Speaker 3: A small modular nuclear reactor which I'm pivoting over to
- 57:41Speaker 3: right now. Army, the nation's military are pivoting to enhance
- 57:50Speaker 3: their resiliency to powering their bases with nuclear power. Doctor
- 57:56Speaker 3: Jeff Walks Waksman, Principal WT Assistant Secretary the Army for Installations,
- 58:01Speaker 3: Energy and Environment. We've got one of those said, what
- 58:04Speaker 3: resilience means to us is that we have power no
- 58:07Speaker 3: matter what. Twenty four to seven, Now, the American military
- 58:10Speaker 3: can make a statement about that and the vast majority
- 58:12Speaker 3: of people go, well, that's a good idea. Our threats
- 58:16Speaker 3: never go away. Our threats are twenty four to seven.
- 58:20Speaker 3: Shouldn't the American military run twenty four to seven? Absolutely?
- 58:24Speaker 3: But if the American military needs to run twenty four
- 58:26Speaker 3: to seven, shouldn't we should we? The American people worry
- 58:32Speaker 3: about brownouts and rolling blackouts because we don't make enough electricity,
- 58:38Speaker 3: a problem that could be solved by the approval the prompt,
- 58:41Speaker 3: speedy approval of small modular reactors. I guarantee you the
- 58:45Speaker 3: military is going to do it. They have a new program,
- 58:47Speaker 3: the Janus Army Program. The Army's plan directs the Department
- 58:51Speaker 3: of War to commence operation of an army regulated nuclear
- 58:55Speaker 3: reactor at domestic military installations. Are you ready? No later
- 59:00Speaker 3: than September thirtieth, twenty twenty eight, three years, three years
- 59:10Speaker 3: and in advance of an election. And they're saying that
- 59:18Speaker 3: that any additional power generated at the base will be
- 59:23Speaker 3: shared with the local communities, which is where all the
- 59:26Speaker 3: military people live. You got to have the energy going
- 59:28Speaker 3: on within the confines of the base, But what about
- 59:30Speaker 3: all the personnel who live outside of the base. That
- 59:32Speaker 3: was a point that was noted And it's pretty amazing.
- 59:44Speaker 3: Let's see here energy resilience. The core of this Janus program.
- 59:50Speaker 3: Currently power resiliency is currently one hundred percent fossil fuels
- 59:55Speaker 3: right now see look at their fossil fuel energy production.
- 59:58Speaker 3: For the exact reason I stated are man Erican military
- 1:00:00Speaker 3: should not sleep, it should not rest. The threats exist
- 1:00:03Speaker 3: twenty four to seven, so they're looking for obviously a
- 1:00:07Speaker 3: better or more reliable get a load of this. The
- 1:00:09Speaker 3: microreactors that Janus will seek to deploy will be what
- 1:00:12Speaker 3: commercial industry refers to as Generation four, are so called
- 1:00:18Speaker 3: passive reactors. Here's the fun fact information, folks. By design,
- 1:00:25Speaker 3: they cannot melt down. So people who are screaming about
- 1:00:28Speaker 3: three mile island in the radio, sorry, modern technology, they
- 1:00:31Speaker 3: can't melt down. They utilized low enriched uranium, which is
- 1:00:35Speaker 3: about five percent enrichment, unlike what the Iranians were going for,
- 1:00:39Speaker 3: which was what ninety five percent. Oh, they want to
- 1:00:41Speaker 3: make a bomb with that. You don't need to enrich
- 1:00:43Speaker 3: uranium that much to have nuclear power, but in this
- 1:00:45Speaker 3: particular case, the passive reactor only needs five percent enriched uranium.
- 1:00:51Speaker 3: These power plants generally not higher than twenty megawatts each,
- 1:00:56Speaker 3: but even so they'll offer surplus power which could protect
- 1:01:00Speaker 3: actually provide energy resiliency to local communities. I love that
- 1:01:03Speaker 3: phrase energy resiliency, something that I think we're all worthy
- 1:01:07Speaker 3: of and that we should be entitled to. We're the
- 1:01:09Speaker 3: most powerful, successful country the planet has ever known, and
- 1:01:13Speaker 3: we built this technology. We know how to make it
- 1:01:16Speaker 3: so in the process right now, this Janus Plan, they
- 1:01:19Speaker 3: are teaming up with a variety of different vendors out there.
- 1:01:22Speaker 3: They're going to phase it in. They're going to select
- 1:01:24Speaker 3: from these vendors, They're going to see who can scale
- 1:01:27Speaker 3: the production of these one size fits all things that
- 1:01:30Speaker 3: produce abundance of power and no carbon. Seems to me
- 1:01:34Speaker 3: our problems are solved. So on the private side, you've
- 1:01:36Speaker 3: got multi billion dollar corporations which will most assuredly get
- 1:01:40Speaker 3: their energy source. Got to have AI to compete in
- 1:01:42Speaker 3: the world. And on the military side, of course, they're
- 1:01:45Speaker 3: going to get what they want because they have since
- 1:01:47Speaker 3: the nineteen fifties been able to power all their ships
- 1:01:49Speaker 3: with nuclear plants, demonstrating they can be reliable and safe.
- 1:01:54Speaker 3: You know, I go through this and I wonder, why
- 1:01:57Speaker 3: in the hell do we have to have this damn conversation?
- 1:02:01Speaker 3: Why what is the motive behind these crazy green nutcases
- 1:02:06Speaker 3: to say no nuclear power the ultimate answer to their problems.
- 1:02:13Speaker 3: This is why I always conclude it's something extremely nefarious
- 1:02:17Speaker 3: going on behind the scenes. They don't want us to
- 1:02:19Speaker 3: have an abundance of power. An abundance of affordable energy, unlimited,
- 1:02:24Speaker 3: reliable energy twenty four to seven, never going to go out,
- 1:02:27Speaker 3: means prosperity. It means abundance, of course, translates oftentimes to consumption.
- 1:02:34Speaker 3: And I really have always thought that this whole green
- 1:02:36Speaker 3: crap was about consumption because they view humanity as a
- 1:02:41Speaker 3: bunch of cockroaches ruining the entire planet. Six forty eight
- 1:02:44Speaker 3: right now, fifty five kers detox station, Feel free to
- 1:02:48Speaker 3: six two fifty five cars de talk station. You're going
- 1:02:50Speaker 3: to jump to the phone. Just one more quick quote
- 1:02:52Speaker 3: from this Deputy Assistant Secretary for Army Installations on nukes.
- 1:02:56Speaker 6: Quote.
- 1:02:57Speaker 3: Unless you're in one of the few places in the
- 1:02:59Speaker 3: world where geothermal is viable, or you have a damn nearby,
- 1:03:02Speaker 3: your only choices are nuclear or fossil fuel. At this time,
- 1:03:05Speaker 3: there's just no ability to have a grid that works
- 1:03:09Speaker 3: solely on solar and wind and batteries at this point, Amen,
- 1:03:13Speaker 3: brother and you can take that and apply it to
- 1:03:16Speaker 3: the rest of the world. Let's see what Jim's got. Jim,
- 1:03:18Speaker 3: thanks for calling. Happy Tuesday.
- 1:03:20Speaker 5: Good morning, Brian, Happy Tuesday. You got it. It's nefarious.
- 1:03:24Speaker 5: These people are uneducated and they've been scared by these
- 1:03:28Speaker 5: lefty leonies that want to control everything. We have power.
- 1:03:31Speaker 5: They can't control us.
- 1:03:32Speaker 3: Amen. I couldn't agree more that it's got to be right.
- 1:03:37Speaker 3: That's got to be all there is to it. Because
- 1:03:39Speaker 3: nuclear is safe. It doesn't produce carbon, it doesn't produce
- 1:03:41Speaker 3: waste anymore, and it can't melt down. Where's the problem
- 1:03:44Speaker 3: with it?
- 1:03:46Speaker 5: Because it's the fossil fuels are I mean, the nuclear
- 1:03:51Speaker 5: fuel is already there. It's in the ground. I had
- 1:03:53Speaker 5: my house in Sewing when I left, had right on
- 1:03:57Speaker 5: in the basement because what the king, Yeah, helfend over
- 1:04:01Speaker 5: here in Claremont County radium in the basement. Whine, you
- 1:04:05Speaker 5: can'tium in the soil. It is just there. We're not
- 1:04:08Speaker 5: making your STLF up, We're just using it exactly.
- 1:04:12Speaker 3: And it's only five percent and rich so you know
- 1:04:14Speaker 3: that's done an controlled environment. But five percent in Richmond
- 1:04:17Speaker 3: is nothing like you know, nuclear weapon technology or that
- 1:04:20Speaker 3: kind of thing. So yeah, you have to reach that conclusion. Jim,
- 1:04:24Speaker 3: I have never heard anything that can satisfy my curiosity
- 1:04:28Speaker 3: over the anti nuke green folks. It does. You can't
- 1:04:32Speaker 3: reconcile the positions at all. Appreciate Jae pile On man.
- 1:04:39Speaker 5: Anly Jane and Jack Lemon in that movie back in
- 1:04:42Speaker 5: the seventies China Syndrome.
- 1:04:50Speaker 8: It did.
- 1:04:51Speaker 3: But we're not talking about that kind of reactor. It's
- 1:04:55Speaker 3: it's fusion reactors, not fishion reactors or vice versa. I
- 1:04:59Speaker 3: get the too confused, but the world is a different
- 1:05:01Speaker 3: place from when they built three Mile Island. That's not
- 1:05:04Speaker 3: the kind of nuclear reactors we're even talking about building
- 1:05:07Speaker 3: the footprint that it takes acres and acres and acres
- 1:05:11Speaker 3: miles literally miles of space to have one of those
- 1:05:13Speaker 3: reactors function and operate. You don't need it with a
- 1:05:16Speaker 3: small modular reactor. They can put them in a submarine,
- 1:05:20Speaker 3: for God's sake, and that's the old school kind anyway.
- 1:05:22Speaker 3: But they can build them within a nuclear within a
- 1:05:25Speaker 3: military base apparently, and they certainly could build them. Hell,
- 1:05:28Speaker 3: I've offered my backyard as an option. Noboe's taking me
- 1:05:31Speaker 3: up on it. But that's how much I have faith
- 1:05:33Speaker 3: in the small modular reactor, small footprint, massive energy production, safe, reliable, abundant,
- 1:05:42Speaker 3: unlimited power. Don Dreehouse, who's running as a Charter candidate
- 1:05:46Speaker 3: for Cincinni City Council. Don, Welcome to the Morning Show.
- 1:05:48Speaker 3: It's great to have you on today, Brian.
- 1:05:51Speaker 9: Thanks for having me, and I appreciate the opportunity.
- 1:05:54Speaker 3: I like your message. I've got just so my listeners
- 1:05:57Speaker 3: know if they want to check out your website, Don Dreehouse,
- 1:05:59Speaker 3: do you or I E H A U S for
- 1:06:02Speaker 3: Cincinnati dot org. You're running on a well, keep it simple,
- 1:06:06Speaker 3: back to the basis kind of campaign. We can't. We
- 1:06:09Speaker 3: should fix what's both broken and build some trust and
- 1:06:13Speaker 3: bring about some real results for residents. I appreciate all that.
- 1:06:16Speaker 3: Do you feel as though the sin city the city
- 1:06:18Speaker 3: has bitten off more than it should be chewing on
- 1:06:20Speaker 3: in terms of what it thinks that can accomplish and
- 1:06:22Speaker 3: what it's trying to do.
- 1:06:23Speaker 9: Don, Yes, And in fact, I think we, the city
- 1:06:28Speaker 9: government itself, needs to get refocused, just like you know
- 1:06:32Speaker 9: we're saying we think that you know, paving the streets
- 1:06:35Speaker 9: has become a big issue here and in cleaning up
- 1:06:38Speaker 9: the litter, and dealing with public safety. Those are three
- 1:06:41Speaker 9: key issues and they need to be focused on first.
- 1:06:44Speaker 9: And I think the word first is where I was
- 1:06:48Speaker 9: in College Shill the other night and somebody said, you know,
- 1:06:50Speaker 9: we're talking about this and that, but they said, you know,
- 1:06:52Speaker 9: first is what the city needs to do. It needs
- 1:06:54Speaker 9: to do the basic first. Then you can kind of
- 1:06:57Speaker 9: expand your presence. But there's all kind of opportunity of
- 1:07:00Speaker 9: these to deal with deeper issues. But right now the
- 1:07:03Speaker 9: city seems to be lost and heading in multiple directions.
- 1:07:06Speaker 9: We need to get refocused on our core, you know,
- 1:07:09Speaker 9: the core issues with the city and what the city
- 1:07:12Speaker 9: should be.
- 1:07:12Speaker 5: Bringing to the table.
- 1:07:13Speaker 3: Well, every time there's a ribbon cutting ceremony where I
- 1:07:15Speaker 3: have to have Parvall shows up, I just look at
- 1:07:17Speaker 3: it like it's a new skate park or it's a
- 1:07:19Speaker 3: new fill in the blank that the taxpayers paid for.
- 1:07:22Speaker 3: My immediate reaction, I think is along the lines of
- 1:07:24Speaker 3: the way you're thinking, wait a second, these roads behind
- 1:07:28Speaker 3: me haven't been paved or touched for years. The city
- 1:07:32Speaker 3: looks terrible. There's garbage everywhere, or lots of places that
- 1:07:36Speaker 3: whole broken windows philosophy is being ignored. We let the
- 1:07:39Speaker 3: neighborhood deteriorate, crime increases, but look, we got a new
- 1:07:42Speaker 3: skate park that we have to take and maintain on
- 1:07:45Speaker 3: a going forward basis. They've forgotten the maintenance and up
- 1:07:47Speaker 3: keep component of seemingly everything that they've already took, they've
- 1:07:51Speaker 3: already built.
- 1:07:52Speaker 9: Don I couldn't agree with you more. I live in
- 1:07:56Speaker 9: Praise Hill. I've been actively engaged with the prey Sell
- 1:07:59Speaker 9: Safety Community Action Team for sixteen years and when we
- 1:08:03Speaker 9: pick up carash, we get out with kids and we
- 1:08:07Speaker 9: work on the weekends and we do the work. And
- 1:08:09Speaker 9: yet we're honestly cleaning the same sites that were good intentions.
- 1:08:13Speaker 9: For example, there's a top lot upon Warsaw which is
- 1:08:17Speaker 9: a great little spot and you know, twenty years ago
- 1:08:19Speaker 9: was out there with great fanfare and now it's just
- 1:08:22Speaker 9: turned into a unfortunately a haven for you know, in essence,
- 1:08:27Speaker 9: people that are addicted to drugs and you know, low
- 1:08:30Speaker 9: level crime and it's not real well maintained, and we
- 1:08:34Speaker 9: maintain it. So it's you know, when you got volunteers
- 1:08:37Speaker 9: in the street who end up taking care of good intentions,
- 1:08:41Speaker 9: that's a lot of pressure and burden on a community.
- 1:08:44Speaker 3: Well, I have to give you props for caring don
- 1:08:47Speaker 3: And I suppose if there were, you know, residents within
- 1:08:49Speaker 3: each of the neglected communities that actually stepped up to
- 1:08:52Speaker 3: the plate and demonstrated their care and concern for their
- 1:08:54Speaker 3: own communities, maybe the city would look a lot better
- 1:08:57Speaker 3: than it currently does. But not an approval to you
- 1:09:00Speaker 3: perceptions about city council, and it's just ignoring these growing problems.
- 1:09:05Speaker 3: I mean, who among us can say the roads in
- 1:09:07Speaker 3: the City of Cincinnati are well maintained or taken care
- 1:09:09Speaker 3: of even remotely. I got to say, actually ask this
- 1:09:12Speaker 3: out loud on the heels of my conversation earlier in
- 1:09:14Speaker 3: the program about nuclear power being the answer to all
- 1:09:16Speaker 3: of our energy demand needs have to have Parvoll I
- 1:09:19Speaker 3: believe was quoted as saying something along the lines of
- 1:09:21Speaker 3: he views everything that lands on his desk as mayor
- 1:09:25Speaker 3: of the City of Cincinnati initially through the green lens.
- 1:09:29Speaker 3: In other words, as if the City of Cincinnati could
- 1:09:31Speaker 3: take some sort of decarbonization efforts and apply it to
- 1:09:35Speaker 3: whatever project is being done and have some impact globally
- 1:09:38Speaker 3: on climate I personally, you don't need to agree with me.
- 1:09:41Speaker 3: Dondree House I personally find that to be almost comical,
- 1:09:45Speaker 3: if not actually comical. Given the insignificant amount of carbon
- 1:09:48Speaker 3: we might put out in the city relative to entire
- 1:09:50Speaker 3: countries whose carbon negation efforts have been blown away by
- 1:09:55Speaker 3: China's output of carbon. We cannot we cannot do a
- 1:09:59Speaker 3: thing about it. Why are we even trying? Don your reaction,
- 1:10:04Speaker 3: you know, I.
- 1:10:05Speaker 9: Again, it seems a little inflated to be worrying about
- 1:10:08Speaker 9: global warming in global issues if we're not even paving
- 1:10:12Speaker 9: our streets. And as far as I'm concerned, you know,
- 1:10:16Speaker 9: it's it's a noble thought, but I kind of listen
- 1:10:22Speaker 9: to people talking about, you know, growing gardens in the
- 1:10:25Speaker 9: city and doing all these nice things. I'm more concerned
- 1:10:29Speaker 9: about keeping the krog grow open in Price Hell. All right,
- 1:10:32Speaker 9: that's what's important. We need to keep our businesses open,
- 1:10:35Speaker 9: and that involves public safety and cleanliness and in essence,
- 1:10:39Speaker 9: curb appeal in all of our neighborhoods. If our businesses
- 1:10:43Speaker 9: are struggling, if we're having if we're struggling with low
- 1:10:46Speaker 9: level criminal activity, if we're struggling with base again, the
- 1:10:50Speaker 9: basic services that the city should be providing, then guess
- 1:10:53Speaker 9: what these global thoughts that are way out there. They
- 1:10:57Speaker 9: don't make any sense because they're not real. It's kind
- 1:11:00Speaker 9: of like Maslov's you know, pyramid of needs. If you
- 1:11:05Speaker 9: can't if you can't pave the streets, and you can't
- 1:11:08Speaker 9: do the basics first, I don't care about the philosophy
- 1:11:11Speaker 9: at the top. If the reality at the bottom is bad,
- 1:11:15Speaker 9: that's not the way it should work.
- 1:11:17Speaker 3: Amen, brother, Can I get a campaign pledge from your
- 1:11:20Speaker 3: dondry House that you'll you'll see that Sunset gets paved.
- 1:11:23Speaker 3: I'm not sure. Since you're a West Side you may
- 1:11:25Speaker 3: experience the war torn reality of that road on a
- 1:11:29Speaker 3: more regular basis than I do. But it's become a
- 1:11:31Speaker 3: poster child for me in dealing with neglect. That road
- 1:11:34Speaker 3: has been that in that shape for years and years now.
- 1:11:38Speaker 9: We play at the planners, we go down there and
- 1:11:41Speaker 9: work on Sunset. I'm very familiar, and I agreed. I
- 1:11:45Speaker 9: have to say something. I was the other evening, I
- 1:11:47Speaker 9: was out in Kennedy Heights and I was lost in
- 1:11:49Speaker 9: Kennedy Heights. It was dark, and so I'm going down
- 1:11:52Speaker 9: Kennedy Avenue to their community meeting, and even Kennedy Avenue
- 1:11:58Speaker 9: is just it looks like ashell. I mean, you're rattling along.
- 1:12:03Speaker 9: It's all over the place. And I walked in and
- 1:12:06Speaker 9: I was building one there, you know, running for council.
- 1:12:09Speaker 9: And we talked for a minute with the group, and
- 1:12:11Speaker 9: all I had to do is say, Kenny Even is
- 1:12:13Speaker 9: a mess. And they were nodding their head, going yeah,
- 1:12:16Speaker 9: sure is. And it's like okay, So all the things
- 1:12:19Speaker 9: we can talk about, but we can't get Kennedy Avenue
- 1:12:22Speaker 9: paid in Kendy Heights, just like Sunset on the west
- 1:12:25Speaker 9: side those and that can be across the city. I mean,
- 1:12:29Speaker 9: you see that example across the city, and that's the
- 1:12:33Speaker 9: first one of the first items that need to be addressed.
- 1:12:36Speaker 5: Well.
- 1:12:37Speaker 3: Being a longtime resident of the Price Hill area, I
- 1:12:39Speaker 3: guess you've noticed the neighborhood has changed quite a bit
- 1:12:42Speaker 3: over the past maybe ten fifteen years. What are the
- 1:12:46Speaker 3: residents in Price Will say about the nature of the
- 1:12:48Speaker 3: changes there and are they happy with the leadership that
- 1:12:51Speaker 3: we've had, which has been under Democrat control I believe
- 1:12:54Speaker 3: for the last forty years.
- 1:12:57Speaker 9: Well, you know the old line, there's not a political
- 1:13:01Speaker 9: way to pick up the garbage. I think the problem
- 1:13:04Speaker 9: in Price Hill, and I've been active on the Tunity
- 1:13:06Speaker 9: councilor and the Safety Group for years. We just feel neglected.
- 1:13:10Speaker 9: I mean it's you know, the West Side just kind
- 1:13:12Speaker 9: of feels like we've taken on the brunt of a
- 1:13:15Speaker 9: lot of social issues and a lot of issues over
- 1:13:17Speaker 9: the last twenty years, and I've been actively engaged with it.
- 1:13:20Speaker 9: So there's a real feeling of ambivalence that city Hall
- 1:13:24Speaker 9: has not been paying attention, and when they do pay attention,
- 1:13:27Speaker 9: they don't really give us any real answers. I mean,
- 1:13:32Speaker 9: you know, I look at it as if hey, guys,
- 1:13:34Speaker 9: you know, like you said, recent example, right here, we
- 1:13:39Speaker 9: have all these issues going on up here in the streets,
- 1:13:42Speaker 9: and their idea of pandering at this point in time
- 1:13:46Speaker 9: is to dumple out of money into Dunham. Now Dunham's great,
- 1:13:48Speaker 9: don't get me wrong, it's a wonderful complex. We meet
- 1:13:51Speaker 9: down there, but it's down at the bottom of Sunset.
- 1:13:54Speaker 9: It's it's not a walking distance of anywhere in the neighborhood.
- 1:13:57Speaker 9: But if you start walking west a Street l Way,
- 1:14:00Speaker 9: you start walking Harrison Avenue, all of a sudden, you're going,
- 1:14:04Speaker 9: wait a minute, why do we need all that? We
- 1:14:06Speaker 9: want a pop shot down at Dunham when we should
- 1:14:09Speaker 9: be dealing with the in essence toeerpoint for broken windows.
- 1:14:12Speaker 9: They're all over the neighborhood, which you see every day.
- 1:14:17Speaker 3: That's a good point about the walking nature of Dunham.
- 1:14:19Speaker 3: I'm very familiar with that. And yeah, there isn't an
- 1:14:22Speaker 3: easy way to get there in terms of walking.
- 1:14:25Speaker 9: Yeah, I run, and they've talked about putting a pathway
- 1:14:29Speaker 9: through the cemetery to get to Dunham. I'm looking at
- 1:14:32Speaker 9: that going is that really a priority. I mean, it's
- 1:14:35Speaker 9: it's interesting, but it's you know, and I run. I'll
- 1:14:38Speaker 9: run down there. And I'm like, but I don't know
- 1:14:40Speaker 9: how many other people are going to run from the
- 1:14:42Speaker 9: top of the hill to the bottom of hell and back.
- 1:14:44Speaker 9: I mean, only crazy old people like me do that.
- 1:14:46Speaker 9: And I'm like, you know, I just don't know if
- 1:14:50Speaker 9: that's really something that's important or at this point.
- 1:14:54Speaker 3: Well, see, you're talking logical and reasonable along the lines
- 1:14:57Speaker 3: that I've always said. Everybody has a list of things
- 1:15:01Speaker 3: they want from government, everybody, and it's always different. But
- 1:15:05Speaker 3: some responsible person has to be the adult in the
- 1:15:07Speaker 3: room to prioritize the most important things. And I'm with
- 1:15:12Speaker 3: you all day long. Roads infrastructure should be a top priority.
- 1:15:17Speaker 3: The skateboard park can wait. When we get the roads fixed,
- 1:15:20Speaker 3: then we'll start talking about that. But we've got to
- 1:15:22Speaker 3: do what the work. You've got to do the work
- 1:15:24Speaker 3: that needs to be done to make people satisfied so
- 1:15:26Speaker 3: they can live, drive, thrive, and and and better their
- 1:15:29Speaker 3: communities in other ways, I'm gonna stop and to bring
- 1:15:31Speaker 3: it back. It's Dondree House four Cincinnati dot orgs his website.
- 1:15:34Speaker 3: Gonna go, but a little bit of his background, because
- 1:15:36Speaker 3: in really great background in terms of skill sets that
- 1:15:39Speaker 3: I think are talk station seven fifty five k city
- 1:15:44Speaker 3: talk station Happy Tuesday. Election Tuesday's next Tuesday. You have
- 1:15:49Speaker 3: a choice. You don't have to run on the same path.
- 1:15:51Speaker 3: The definition of stupidity is doing the same thing over
- 1:15:53Speaker 3: and over again expecting a different result. And if you're
- 1:15:55Speaker 3: not happy with the way the city is currently run,
- 1:15:57Speaker 3: and Dondree House seems to be a man who is
- 1:15:59Speaker 3: not happy way the city's run, maybe go a different path.
- 1:16:03Speaker 3: Dondry House for Cincinnati dot orgers where you'll find his
- 1:16:06Speaker 3: campaign website. Don you have a background I think is
- 1:16:10Speaker 3: really beneficial to the City of Cincinnati. If you're elected
- 1:16:13Speaker 3: a financial background.
- 1:16:16Speaker 9: Yes, I worked thirty years in the financial industry. I
- 1:16:21Speaker 9: started out with Gradison, which was one of the original
- 1:16:24Speaker 9: brokerage burns in Cincinnati. Oh yeah, yeah, I started there
- 1:16:29Speaker 9: in nineteen ninety. I literally, I have to say, prior
- 1:16:33Speaker 9: to that, I kind of ran the Bloomin Saloon, So
- 1:16:36Speaker 9: you know that was back in the day, and you're
- 1:16:37Speaker 9: old enough to remember the two at Hyde Park and
- 1:16:41Speaker 9: over on the West Side I started. Yeah. So I
- 1:16:46Speaker 9: have a long and varied career starting at the age
- 1:16:48Speaker 9: of twelve, and I had, you know, worked on the
- 1:16:51Speaker 9: river everything else. But yes, when I was thirty, I
- 1:16:53Speaker 9: went to work with Gradison and pretty much spent the
- 1:16:56Speaker 9: next twenty nine thirty years working in finance. And it was,
- 1:17:00Speaker 9: you know, is very profitable career and also you learn
- 1:17:02Speaker 9: a lot. You're constantly learning. You constantly have to stay
- 1:17:05Speaker 9: up on the trends of what's going on, you know,
- 1:17:08Speaker 9: in the world economy, in the market. And by the
- 1:17:11Speaker 9: time I was finished, I was doing institutional investing for
- 1:17:15Speaker 9: Cincinnati Financial and I managed to I don't know, I
- 1:17:18Speaker 9: mean it's a number of about a four or five
- 1:17:20Speaker 9: billion dollars on portfolio. We had a sixteen billion dollar portfolio.
- 1:17:23Speaker 9: At the time, I was handling a lot of the
- 1:17:26Speaker 9: corporate space. And if you're looking at interest rates today,
- 1:17:29Speaker 9: you're looking at corporate spreads or what's going on in
- 1:17:32Speaker 9: the economy. It's a good way to gauge, you know,
- 1:17:34Speaker 9: a much bigger number of what's happening, you know, in
- 1:17:37Speaker 9: the economy. But it's been a couple of years since
- 1:17:40Speaker 9: I used to track breads, and I used to work
- 1:17:42Speaker 9: in the you were talking about energy. I was in
- 1:17:44Speaker 9: the energy sector, so we used to follow call and
- 1:17:48Speaker 9: gas and nuclear and you saw the rigs and the
- 1:17:52Speaker 9: like where it would impact the credit rating or the
- 1:17:55Speaker 9: credit and you also have to be very careful about,
- 1:17:58Speaker 9: you know, how you were investing, because there would be
- 1:18:00Speaker 9: situations where, for example, there was there is a utility
- 1:18:04Speaker 9: out of Illinois that in essence came in and broke
- 1:18:07Speaker 9: up their holding company and left the bondholders with the
- 1:18:12Speaker 9: debt and they split off equity to the investors, and
- 1:18:16Speaker 9: we were stuck with a bad investment. At that point.
- 1:18:19Speaker 9: They were shuttering coal plants, you know, and they used
- 1:18:23Speaker 9: they used a parliamentary trick or a legal trick to
- 1:18:26Speaker 9: stick it to the bondholders. So you know, you're familiar
- 1:18:29Speaker 9: with some of these, you know, I am kind of
- 1:18:31Speaker 9: familiar with how things work behind the scenes when it
- 1:18:35Speaker 9: comes to the rigs, and you just have to keep
- 1:18:38Speaker 9: an eye on it.
- 1:18:39Speaker 3: That's all there is to Dondre House where we part company.
- 1:18:42Speaker 3: I needed a word or two on the situation involving crime,
- 1:18:45Speaker 3: ignoring the issues regarding the police chief and where that
- 1:18:48Speaker 3: takes us. What is your perception of crime in the
- 1:18:51Speaker 3: city of Cincinnati and what would Councilman Dondrea House to
- 1:18:54Speaker 3: do about it, if anything.
- 1:18:56Speaker 9: Well, first off, let's talk about the chief. I think
- 1:18:58Speaker 9: she's a scapegoat at this point. I think, you know,
- 1:19:01Speaker 9: running the chief up the flagpole is a bad look,
- 1:19:03Speaker 9: and it was. It's bad. You know, the policies that
- 1:19:06Speaker 9: were laid out there about three or four years ago.
- 1:19:08Speaker 9: It was more of a hands off approach to what's
- 1:19:11Speaker 9: going on at the street level, and I don't think
- 1:19:13Speaker 9: that works. We need to do the basics, you know. Again,
- 1:19:17Speaker 9: they need to write traffic tickets, we need to deal
- 1:19:20Speaker 9: with litter, we need to we need to deal with,
- 1:19:23Speaker 9: you know, the day to day issues. Now, the problem
- 1:19:25Speaker 9: we have with a booth, the Cincinnati Police Force and
- 1:19:27Speaker 9: the fire department or the calls for service are out
- 1:19:30Speaker 9: of control. Okay, And right now as we know, the
- 1:19:34Speaker 9: police compliment is down about twenty percent, and it's going
- 1:19:37Speaker 9: to take three to four years to rebuild the ranks
- 1:19:39Speaker 9: if they do it, because you have retirements that are
- 1:19:42Speaker 9: going to supersede or exceed you know, the ability to
- 1:19:46Speaker 9: train new officers. But I'm going to go back to
- 1:19:50Speaker 9: the fireside of this. I went up to Station twenty
- 1:19:53Speaker 9: four here in Price Hill and spoke with the gang
- 1:19:56Speaker 9: affair and over fifty eight period they had one hundred
- 1:20:00Speaker 9: and seventy eight calls for service for manned down slash overdoses. Okay,
- 1:20:06Speaker 9: that's one firehouse fifty days. Every one of those calls
- 1:20:09Speaker 9: for service costs approximately eighteen hundred dollars a pop. So
- 1:20:13Speaker 9: I'm going do the math there. Take it across the city,
- 1:20:17Speaker 9: and you have a huge amount of money we're spending
- 1:20:20Speaker 9: on calls for service. With fire and police compliments going
- 1:20:23Speaker 9: out every time, you're draining the ability for the responders
- 1:20:29Speaker 9: to do their job, and it's breaking them around. And
- 1:20:33Speaker 9: what you need to do is say, hey, I do
- 1:20:35Speaker 9: believe in place based type of focus. We have AI,
- 1:20:39Speaker 9: we have technology, we have heat maps, so you can
- 1:20:43Speaker 9: go in and say, Okay, we've got four sights right here,
- 1:20:45Speaker 9: one around me, right around the corner on Greenwell active
- 1:20:48Speaker 9: drug dealing for problems for months.
- 1:20:51Speaker 5: If not years.
- 1:20:52Speaker 9: We know who it is, we know the property is
- 1:20:55Speaker 9: a problem. We've had the landlord on the grill that
- 1:20:59Speaker 9: nobody's see seems to be able to get the results
- 1:21:02Speaker 9: we want. And I'm saying, who's the landlord there? You
- 1:21:05Speaker 9: are paying into this Property's who's dealing with it, and
- 1:21:09Speaker 9: let's charge them. Forget the criminal side of this. Yeah,
- 1:21:12Speaker 9: we should be charging owners and providers that are free
- 1:21:17Speaker 9: riding on city services. That's my take on it. It's
- 1:21:20Speaker 9: like once you start putting a search charge on calls
- 1:21:22Speaker 9: for service for people that are abusing the system, they'll
- 1:21:25Speaker 9: start cleaning up the problems.
- 1:21:27Speaker 5: On their own.
- 1:21:28Speaker 3: Don Dreehouse for Cincinnati dot orgs where you find Don's
- 1:21:32Speaker 3: campaign web page. Got one week to make your decisions.
- 1:21:34Speaker 3: I strongly encourage my listeners to take a look what
- 1:21:37Speaker 3: Don is saying on his website, but also what he
- 1:21:39Speaker 3: had to say here on the fifty five KRC Morning Show.
- 1:21:41Speaker 3: Don sounds good to me, my friend. I wish you
- 1:21:43Speaker 3: all the best. And if you are elected, I pray
- 1:21:45Speaker 3: that you help can help steer the Cincinnati City of
- 1:21:48Speaker 3: Cincinnati that we all love in a better direction. Best
- 1:21:51Speaker 3: luck as we've fit. Quickly moved forward to next Tuesday,
- 1:21:53Speaker 3: my friend, good to have you on the show today,
- 1:21:55Speaker 3: don local stories. We got two women, one injured, one
- 1:21:59Speaker 3: man in jail. This after a shooting in Warren County
- 1:22:01Speaker 3: happened yesterday afternoon. Warren County Sheriff's Office says deputies were

- 1:22:54Speaker 3: expect it in the morning. It was in the morning yesterday.
- 1:22:56Speaker 4: Anyway.
- 1:22:56Speaker 3: Police had to block multiple roads in the area, including
- 1:22:59Speaker 3: Madison Road a Victory Parkway, before reopening about ninety minutes later.
- 1:23:02Speaker 3: Deployed drones. They had a canine unit out searching for
- 1:23:05Speaker 3: a possible suspect described as ready this this guy got
- 1:23:11Speaker 3: to be easy to capture. Ready quote a black man
- 1:23:15Speaker 3: in a red jacket. Close quote. You know who I'm

- 1:23:36Speaker 3: you have any information on this crime Stoppers three five,
- 1:23:39Speaker 3: two thirty forty. Well, they got what should be an
- 1:23:43Speaker 3: award winner from our fifty five KRC Morning Show award
- 1:23:46Speaker 3: Winnings song in the morning five o'clock hour for that
- 1:23:49Speaker 3: one normally today since at police department had released a
- 1:23:52Speaker 3: video showing the vandalism of the Marty Brenneman statue outside
- 1:23:56Speaker 3: of a Great American ballpark. They investigated the act of
- 1:24:03Speaker 3: vandalism happened on Sunday. They found a damage to the
- 1:24:05Speaker 3: microphone that was attached to the Brenemant statue. Police said
- 1:24:09Speaker 3: they have no further information, but they would like you
- 1:24:11Speaker 3: to see the video because the person should be easily identifiable.
- 1:24:15Speaker 3: Check it out and then give either Detective Blank a
- 1:24:18Speaker 3: call at three five two fifty four forty two, or
- 1:24:23Speaker 3: called the non emergency line or I'm thinking crime Stoppers
- 1:24:26Speaker 3: three five to two thirty forty. I'm sure they'll take
- 1:24:28Speaker 3: your tip and maybe they'll read to the arrest of
- 1:24:31Speaker 3: this creep Yay. You wonder how I feel about that.
- 1:24:37Speaker 3: Two people facing charges after a crash escalated into a
- 1:24:40Speaker 3: road rage assault. Here we go. James Holbert fifty one
- 1:24:43Speaker 3: years old, junior, I should say, making dad proud. Brian
- 1:24:46Speaker 3: Guessner fifty years old, now facing multiple charges. Happened on
- 1:24:50Speaker 3: October twenty six. Ross Township Police say four thirty in
- 1:24:53Speaker 3: the afternoon, officers called a Lark Street in Cincinnati Brookville
- 1:24:56Speaker 3: Road for a road rage incident. Hulbert, driving his Ford
- 1:25:00Speaker 3: three point fifty on a suspended license, nearly hit another vehicle.
- 1:25:04Speaker 3: A verbal dispute began, then it evolved into a physical confrontation.
- 1:25:09Speaker 3: Fifty one year old Holbert returned in his truck, grabbed
- 1:25:12Speaker 3: a large piece of wood, according to the township police,
- 1:25:16Speaker 3: and through the wood through the other guy's vehicle, hitting
- 1:25:18Speaker 3: the victim in the head. Hulbert and Gesner arrested later
- 1:25:21Speaker 3: at Hulbert's home, which I find it really weird both
- 1:25:24Speaker 3: of them were there anyway. Hulbert being taken to jail,
- 1:25:27Speaker 3: the police said that he threatened to kill an officer
- 1:25:29Speaker 3: and shoot him in the face, prompting Chief Robert Gerhart
- 1:25:33Speaker 3: to point out, we will not tolerate this type of
- 1:25:35Speaker 3: violent behavior in Ross Township, and if you threaten to
- 1:25:37Speaker 3: harm our officers in any way, we will seek the
- 1:25:39Speaker 3: maximum prison sentence possible. That sentence will be maybe being
- 1:25:44Speaker 3: convicted of aggravated assault. He's in charged with that, aggravated menacing,
- 1:25:48Speaker 3: criminal damaging, and driving under a licensed suspension. Ross Township
- 1:25:53Speaker 3: Police didn't explain by Gesner what Gesner did during the
- 1:25:57Speaker 3: road rage incident, but they said he was cited for
- 1:25:59Speaker 3: assault and wrongful entrustment of a motor vehicle bhil Fraul.

- 1:26:43Speaker 10: Termal yesterday. If people wanted an idea what would go on,
- 1:26:49Speaker 10: that would be the place to take your kids and
- 1:26:52Speaker 10: people down here.
- 1:26:53Speaker 4: To see that.
- 1:26:56Speaker 3: A strong recommendation for that, that Holocaust Center for hum
- 1:27:00Speaker 3: uh Humanities, and it is an amazing place. Did you
- 1:27:04Speaker 3: it's it's did you did you get a sense, because
- 1:27:08Speaker 3: here's my strange reaction. Sarah Ways used to run the
- 1:27:13Speaker 3: UH the Holocaust Museum before it had moved locations, and
- 1:27:18Speaker 3: I went in and I was surprised. How I think
- 1:27:23Speaker 3: that may be a wrong word, but uplifting it was.
- 1:27:25Speaker 3: You didn't walk out feeling like you were depressed in
- 1:27:27Speaker 3: the world's just miserable place. It provided you, uh, some
- 1:27:32Speaker 3: measure of positivity that balanced out the horror that was
- 1:27:36Speaker 3: the Holocaust? Is it is it still doing that kind
- 1:27:39Speaker 3: of thing?
- 1:27:41Speaker 10: This is this came from Germany and it was up
- 1:27:43Speaker 10: in Canada, and this is the calm down here to Cincinnati.
- 1:27:49Speaker 10: And then the nice thing is this is the nice
- 1:27:53Speaker 10: thing is that they're bringing high school students in for free.
- 1:27:58Speaker 3: Oh okay, so this is a different exhibit. I am sorry,
- 1:28:00Speaker 3: I kind of.
- 1:28:03Speaker 9: Exhibits.
- 1:28:05Speaker 10: This is totally different and it is eye opening, uh
- 1:28:12Speaker 10: about what happened. But you're also with today's some things
- 1:28:18Speaker 10: going on in the Middle East and everything else. It
- 1:28:21Speaker 10: makes you think that it happened to the Jews, But
- 1:28:25Speaker 10: it happened, it can happen to UH, Christians and everybody
- 1:28:30Speaker 10: else that doesn't want to believe the rhetoric that's going on.
- 1:28:35Speaker 3: Isn't that the truth, you know, and you see about
- 1:28:38Speaker 3: the oppression of Christians in a whole lot of country
- 1:28:42Speaker 3: and countries. And we're fortunate, of course here because we
- 1:28:45Speaker 3: have guaranteed free exercise of religion clause in the Constitution,
- 1:28:48Speaker 3: that Testy Constitution, Really, Carl, that is the only thing
- 1:28:52Speaker 3: that stands in the way of us becoming something like
- 1:28:55Speaker 3: I don't know, Mao's cultural revolution kind of country. You know,
- 1:29:00Speaker 3: we have all these people reporting, and it goes both ways,
- 1:29:02Speaker 3: both sides the political spectrum, but the internet. You know,
- 1:29:05Speaker 3: somebody says something and immediately get docks by those countless
- 1:29:09Speaker 3: numbers of people. You're not towing the party line, You're
- 1:29:11Speaker 3: a heretic, You're you're the one in outing you and
- 1:29:14Speaker 3: all of that. That's a lot like what we know
- 1:29:16Speaker 3: with Nazi Germany, right, you had the brown shirts running around.
- 1:29:18Speaker 3: People would turn in their own moms and dads to
- 1:29:20Speaker 3: the Nazi Party if they disagreed with the party philosophy, right, And.
- 1:29:26Speaker 10: It chows you how they took the not only the Jews,
- 1:29:30Speaker 10: but it took the Russian soldiers and the gay population
- 1:29:39Speaker 10: and people with handicap and everything else.
- 1:29:44Speaker 3: That's why we need to come to the gas chambers.
- 1:29:47Speaker 3: That's why we need to study history so we avoid
- 1:29:50Speaker 3: making the mistakes of the past and unleashing the horrors
- 1:29:53Speaker 3: of the past. Good call man. Do you know how
- 1:29:55Speaker 3: long the exhibits are going to be there? I think
- 1:29:58Speaker 3: it's going to be there until April and it's and
- 1:30:01Speaker 3: again it's where.
- 1:30:03Speaker 2: At the Natural History Museum, the Union Internal Union.
- 1:30:07Speaker 3: Termal Natural History Museum. A strong encouragement for my listeners
- 1:30:10Speaker 3: get out there and do what Carl did. Carl, thanks
- 1:30:12Speaker 3: for bringing that to my attention, because I think I
- 1:30:14Speaker 3: feel like I'm gonna check that one out as well.
- 1:30:16Speaker 3: Thanks brother, have a great day. Hey, Mark, your next

- 1:31:24Speaker 3: the pod Mark. Thanks for calling this morning. Welcome to
- 1:31:27Speaker 3: the Morning Show. Happy Tuesday to you, sir, Hey, good.
- 1:31:31Speaker 1: Morning, ray Hey. I just wanted to make a quick
- 1:31:35Speaker 1: comment regarding h Teresa Tichi so as a hear and
- 1:31:39Speaker 1: I really want to feel bad for the whole situation her,
- 1:31:43Speaker 1: you know, being put out as the front man for
- 1:31:46Speaker 1: this whole situation. But at the same time, I think
- 1:31:50Speaker 1: back just a few months ago, I think she was
- 1:31:53Speaker 1: directly asked by the media when some other stuff was
- 1:31:57Speaker 1: going on, as she supported the policy.
- 1:32:00Speaker 8: The uh AS task yes, and she.
- 1:32:03Speaker 1: Came out and conequiv with was sed, oh, I stand
- 1:32:06Speaker 1: by it. This is this is my policy. We're we're
- 1:32:10Speaker 1: doing what we believe is best. This is this is
- 1:32:13Speaker 1: what I think we ought to do. And now now
- 1:32:16Speaker 1: look at it, so it's it's kind of hard not
- 1:32:18Speaker 1: to kind of, you know, think, well, you know, it's
- 1:32:21Speaker 1: it's kind of nice watch and the meets her army but.
- 1:32:25Speaker 3: Having a little shot in freudy experience, are you Mark,
- 1:32:28Speaker 3: I'm with you. The Purval and Lon picked her over
- 1:32:33Speaker 3: the objections of the police department. They didn't want her,
- 1:32:36Speaker 3: they specifically told her, but nonetheless it was like the
- 1:32:38Speaker 3: next day they went ahead and appointed Teresa Tiji as chief.
- 1:32:42Speaker 3: They have the ability to do that thanks to Issue five.
- 1:32:44Speaker 3: Nobody else gets to say in the matter. She obviously
- 1:32:47Speaker 3: was doing what they wanted to do. She was in
- 1:32:49Speaker 3: good standing with the administration up until a couple of
- 1:32:51Speaker 3: weeks ago, and that's when they decided they need an
- 1:32:53Speaker 3: escape goat for the obvious crime problem that was going on.
- 1:32:56Speaker 3: And this this resulted in their selection of police chief
- 1:33:00Speaker 3: being put on an unpaid administrative leave so they can
- 1:33:03Speaker 3: hire a law firm to investigate her and her actions,
- 1:33:07Speaker 3: including determining whether her leadership was within the context I'm
- 1:33:11Speaker 3: reading now city government, including by furthering the broader goals
- 1:33:14Speaker 3: and objectives of the city administration. She said she was
- 1:33:17Speaker 3: supporting the city administration, which what ultimately led to her
- 1:33:21Speaker 3: being let go sort of kind of and now leads
- 1:33:23Speaker 3: to an investigation so they can go through her entire
- 1:33:26Speaker 3: background as police chief to see if they can find
- 1:33:28Speaker 3: anything untoward that would justify her being let go for
- 1:33:32Speaker 3: following the directors of aftab Provoll and Cheryl Long. She's
- 1:33:36Speaker 3: being let go because she did I guess perception wise
- 1:33:40Speaker 3: she did allows e job with crime because she did
- 1:33:42Speaker 3: what they told her to do.
- 1:33:44Speaker 5: Right.
- 1:33:45Speaker 3: This is a circular firing for a circular firing squad. Yeah,
- 1:33:50Speaker 3: that's law firm should have been hired to look into
- 1:33:52Speaker 3: Cheryl Long and have to have Provoll and what they
- 1:33:54Speaker 3: directed DJI to do. But you know what, maybe they
- 1:33:56Speaker 3: will ye after exercising some measure of independence, maybe they will.
- 1:34:00Speaker 3: I appreciate that, Mark, You obviously have your eye on
- 1:34:03Speaker 3: the ball. Yeah, and this is puzzling as well. I
- 1:34:07Speaker 3: started the morning show talking about this. Council members they
- 1:34:12Speaker 3: since I your Fox nineteen were reporting blindsided by the
- 1:34:15Speaker 3: announcement of the retention of this law firm to investigate
- 1:34:18Speaker 3: police Chief Dji. Frost Brown Todd's Columbus office is hired,
- 1:34:25Speaker 3: and counsel of Walsh speaking with Fox nineteen saying, we
- 1:34:27Speaker 3: barely got more of a heads up than you Fox
- 1:34:30Speaker 3: nineteen did regarding the Frost Frost Brown Todd hiring. We're
- 1:34:35Speaker 3: using a source of funds that we don't know what
- 1:34:38Speaker 3: the source is that doesn't need counsel's approval. So he's
- 1:34:42Speaker 3: swirling with questions about where this money's coming from. And
- 1:34:46Speaker 3: apparently according to the agreement with the law firm, it
- 1:34:49Speaker 3: says the maximum compensation will be forty thousand dollars with
- 1:34:54Speaker 3: the contract tentatively ending December thirty. First. Now I laughed
- 1:34:59Speaker 3: about that, because is how can anybody know how much
- 1:35:02Speaker 3: investigation needs to be done and how much work it's
- 1:35:04Speaker 3: going to be with their law firm billable rate being
- 1:35:06Speaker 3: between four to twenty five per hour and down to
- 1:35:09Speaker 3: two hundred and fifty dollars per hour, I suppose, depending
- 1:35:11Speaker 3: on whether a partner or associates working on it. But
- 1:35:14Speaker 3: how can you know? Possibly in advance that the work
- 1:35:17Speaker 3: can be done for forty thousand dollars or less, and
- 1:35:21Speaker 3: by that time frame, here's what they've been retained to do.
- 1:35:26Speaker 3: Determine if the chief has been an effective leader and
- 1:35:29Speaker 3: manager of the City Police Department, including personnel and resources.
- 1:35:35Speaker 3: I suppose they're going to talk to the police officers.
- 1:35:38Speaker 3: Determinedive Fiji's leadership was within the context of city government,
- 1:35:43Speaker 3: including by furthering the broader goals and objections of the
- 1:35:46Speaker 3: city administration. Well, the city administration's made up a bunch
- 1:35:49Speaker 3: of defund the police and reimagine the police, and let's
- 1:35:52Speaker 3: get some community activists out there assisting the police. Let's
- 1:35:55Speaker 3: hire Iris Rowley, who hates the police. We all know
- 1:35:58Speaker 3: what the objectives of the city administration are. So she
- 1:36:01Speaker 3: probably was furthering the broader goals and objectives of the
- 1:36:05Speaker 3: city administration. Anyway, Number three determined ive Thiji has committed
- 1:36:10Speaker 3: any infraction or policy violation while serving as police chief.
- 1:36:13Speaker 3: So they got four years of background to review that.
- 1:36:15Speaker 3: She has never had a black mark on her record.
- 1:36:18Speaker 3: From all accounts, there's never been a criticism of Fiji.
- 1:36:21Speaker 3: Mayor have to have. Pur Ball was supporting her in
- 1:36:23Speaker 3: her efforts as recently as several weeks ago, until he
- 1:36:27Speaker 3: realized that crime was actually a problem. The City of
- 1:36:29Speaker 3: Cincinnati residents know about it. He's got an election coming
- 1:36:32Speaker 3: up and he's got to do something. So let's well
- 1:36:34Speaker 3: put Fiji on administrative leave. Now, that doesn't mean she
- 1:36:38Speaker 3: has clean hands, as I guess mentioned. If she's doing
- 1:36:41Speaker 3: what Parval and Long says she should do, and she
- 1:36:44Speaker 3: believes it was in against best practices for the police department,
- 1:36:49Speaker 3: then maybe there's a problem there. But I think the
- 1:36:52Speaker 3: problem circles back to pear Ball and Long and finally
- 1:36:55Speaker 3: the law well and the law firms also going to
- 1:36:57Speaker 3: determine if she has disregarded best practices, speaking of which
- 1:37:02Speaker 3: in the running of the Sinci Police Department to the
- 1:37:04Speaker 3: detriment of public safety and crime prevention. So there's your
- 1:37:07Speaker 3: agenda items for the Frost Brown Law firm. Leaving the
- 1:37:11Speaker 3: council members blindsided and scratching their heads and asking a
- 1:37:15Speaker 3: lot of questions that certainly weren't presented to them or
- 1:37:18Speaker 3: run by them before they went ahead and hired this firm. Hey,
- 1:37:22Speaker 3: you can vote next week seven fifty six if you
- 1:37:26Speaker 3: five Kosity Talk station. Plenty of time for calls after
- 1:37:28Speaker 3: the top of the our news. I welcomed them and

- 1:37:32Speaker 3: eight thirty. I hope you can stick.
- 1:37:33Speaker 8: Around today's top headlines coming up at the top of
- 1:37:37Speaker 8: the hour.
- 1:37:38Speaker 4: Something always happens when you leave.
- 1:37:40Speaker 3: Six fifty five krs the talk station. This report is
- 1:37:44Speaker 3: sponsored by the talk station Ato five here fifty five
- 1:37:51Speaker 3: kr see the talk station. Happy Tuesday.
- 1:37:54Speaker 4: Try to make it so.
- 1:37:54Speaker 3: Anyway, A little less happy for me because I always
- 1:37:57Speaker 3: enjoyed talking with Breitbart. Today didn't get a bright didn't
- 1:38:00Speaker 3: reach out to Strucker, or didn't get back to Strucker
- 1:38:02Speaker 3: reasons unknown, but feel pretty confidable. We have him back.
- 1:38:05Speaker 3: Next week we will have Daniel Davis doin the deep
- 1:38:07Speaker 3: dive at the bottom of the air with the former
- 1:38:09Speaker 3: retire of the retired Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis give it
- 1:38:11Speaker 3: us analysis of the latest on the Russia Ukraine War
- 1:38:14Speaker 3: and what's going on with Israel and Hamas. I still
- 1:38:18Speaker 3: see can you call it a ceasefire when they're shooting
- 1:38:20Speaker 3: at each other? Anyway, he'll have a common or two
- 1:38:23Speaker 3: on that. I know he always does. Eight point forty
- 1:38:26Speaker 3: we're here from Senator John Houston about the government shut
- 1:38:29Speaker 3: down and the big news started out the program and
- 1:38:32Speaker 3: that the largest union of federal workers urging Congress yesterday
- 1:38:38Speaker 3: brand new development here to pass the CR that the
- 1:38:40Speaker 3: Republicans passed in the House before they went on recess,
- 1:38:44Speaker 3: the Clean Funding Bill that keeps funding levels brought Joe
- 1:38:47Speaker 3: Biden era levels. Taking any argument the dynam Democrats might have,
- 1:38:52Speaker 3: you know, the Congressman Massy argument, I'm not signing this
- 1:38:55Speaker 3: because the CR does not cut government. Valid pointon iam
- 1:39:00Speaker 3: is due on that one. But the political strategy you
- 1:39:04Speaker 3: keep it at Biden levels. The Democrats can't complain and
- 1:39:06Speaker 3: say the government is being shut down because these evil
- 1:39:08Speaker 3: draconi Republicans want to cut funding from federal government so
- 1:39:13Speaker 3: no one's getting paid. Now, along come the Federal Workers Union,
- 1:39:19Speaker 3: American Federation of Government Employees, which represents I think it's
- 1:39:22Speaker 3: eight hundred thousand government employees, all demanding that well open
- 1:39:28Speaker 3: the government up, pass the Clean Funding Bill. Much the
- 1:39:34Speaker 3: Democrats chagrin because the American Federation of Government Employees is
- 1:39:38Speaker 3: usually a democratic ally. But now that we're in four
- 1:39:42Speaker 3: we some of the shutdown. We have all these workers
- 1:39:44Speaker 3: that have been furloughed, They're now missing paychecks, and more
- 1:39:47Speaker 3: and more damage is going to happen every single day.
- 1:39:49Speaker 3: This is, I suppose, what the Democrats wants, although they're
- 1:39:51Speaker 3: doing it their own political peril, their own people are
- 1:39:55Speaker 3: rebelling against them. Their own people see through this nonsense
- 1:39:58Speaker 3: that what the Republicans did was strategically in terms of politics,
- 1:40:02Speaker 3: pretty damn smart, and that they own the shutdown. What
- 1:40:07Speaker 3: complaint can you possibly have when you're the one that
- 1:40:10Speaker 3: established the funding levels last year which will remain the same.
- 1:40:15Speaker 3: You Democrats are the ones that put the expiration date
- 1:40:18Speaker 3: for the supplements that you're complaining about in the original
- 1:40:21Speaker 3: bill providing the supplements, and then extended them with the deadline.
- 1:40:25Speaker 3: Republicans had nothing to do with that. You own that now.
- 1:40:30Speaker 3: I know your bubble was burst that Donald Trump got
- 1:40:32Speaker 3: elected and your favorite Gal Kamala Harris didn't, but that
- 1:40:35Speaker 3: was an obvious conclusion after you did what you did
- 1:40:37Speaker 3: running Joe Biden as president. So you're living with the
- 1:40:40Speaker 3: mistakes that you made. But because Donald Trump is president
- 1:40:45Speaker 3: and you're not in control, you can't extend them forever,
- 1:40:49Speaker 3: which is exactly what they planned on doing, creating this
- 1:40:52Speaker 3: illusion that Obamacare was actually working by supplementing your premium payments,
- 1:40:57Speaker 3: just a gift directly to insurers out there in the
- 1:40:59Speaker 3: medical providers. Anyhow, Well, we'll see if that has any
- 1:41:03Speaker 3: measure of any impact on moving the Democrats to go
- 1:41:06Speaker 3: ahead and do the right thing, and let's get get
- 1:41:08Speaker 3: on with business and get back to the twelve appropriations bills,
- 1:41:12Speaker 3: which honestly, I don't think is going to happen given
- 1:41:15Speaker 3: the limited amount of time that we have under the
- 1:41:17Speaker 3: current legislation that's still being proposed. So we'll hear from
- 1:41:21Speaker 3: Senator Houston on that most recent development. What else, Oh,
- 1:41:26Speaker 3: you know, may as well just go ahead and jump
- 1:41:28Speaker 3: into this because it helps me conclude my thought. Now.
- 1:41:31Speaker 3: Earlier I was on a rant, and it's all. My
- 1:41:35Speaker 3: rant was built on the positive development that we are
- 1:41:38Speaker 3: going to see in a short period of time, at
- 1:41:41Speaker 3: least in political history and in terms of our what
- 1:41:45Speaker 3: lived experience we're going to live to see nuclear microreactors.
- 1:41:51Speaker 3: You have already the artificial intelligence giants, the googles of
- 1:41:54Speaker 3: the world's alphabet, et cetera. The billions of dollars wanting
- 1:41:57Speaker 3: to build their own small nuclear reactors to power their
- 1:42:00Speaker 3: own AI facilities, which is going to be wonderful for
- 1:42:02Speaker 3: any community which agreed to have one of these monstrosities built,
- 1:42:06Speaker 3: because you're probably going to be able to share in
- 1:42:08Speaker 3: the love that the nuclear power is going to provide
- 1:42:10Speaker 3: you efficient, clean, safe, abundant twenty four to seven power.
- 1:42:18Speaker 3: It's the answer to everybody's dream. Pivot over. Now, the
- 1:42:22Speaker 3: Army has released information about this Janus project that they're pursuing,
- 1:42:26Speaker 3: so each of the military bases will be independently powered
- 1:42:31Speaker 3: by their own micro nuclear reactors. It's pretty damn cool,
- 1:42:38Speaker 3: and they realize that, yes, American military faces threats twenty
- 1:42:41Speaker 3: four hours a day, seven days a week. Presently, our
- 1:42:44Speaker 3: bases are powered by fossil fuels unless they're close enough
- 1:42:46Speaker 3: to get unlimited hydro power or geothermal, which is not
- 1:42:49Speaker 3: the case in the vast majority of the location. So
- 1:42:52Speaker 3: let's get small reactors and power these nuclear bases. This
- 1:42:57Speaker 3: Janus project, which is the whole which was this was
- 1:43:00Speaker 3: Donald Trump's executive order. It's number one, four, two nine
- 1:43:02Speaker 3: nine if you're interested in looking it up. Deploying advanced
- 1:43:05Speaker 3: nuclear reactor technologies for national security, and it directs the
- 1:43:10Speaker 3: Department of War to do these Army regulated nuclear actors
- 1:43:13Speaker 3: at domestic military installations no later than September thirtieth of
- 1:43:17Speaker 3: twenty twenty eight, conveniently in advance of the presidential election.
- 1:43:21Speaker 3: But yeah, And they point out that neighborhood communities that
- 1:43:25Speaker 3: are close to the nuclear bases will be able to
- 1:43:27Speaker 3: share in the love of abundant, unlimited twenty four to
- 1:43:29Speaker 3: seven no rolling blackout electric power produced by the nuclear plants. Great, wonderful,
- 1:43:38Speaker 3: and it's safe. I love this. These generation four passive
- 1:43:43Speaker 3: reactors cannot melt down. They utilize low enriched uranium five
- 1:43:50Speaker 3: percent enrichment, and they generate about twenty megawatts per plant,
- 1:43:55Speaker 3: which is a fairly significant amount considering how small the
- 1:43:57Speaker 3: footprint is on these plants. So they point out this
- 1:44:00Speaker 3: could potentially provide energy resilience to local communities near the bases.
- 1:44:04Speaker 3: And I just had my hand up, going, how come
- 1:44:06Speaker 3: we don't get ours. I don't know that I'm necessarily
- 1:44:10Speaker 3: going to ever be living next to an AI plant
- 1:44:12Speaker 3: where the abundance of power might be given to be
- 1:44:15Speaker 3: sort of as a spillover effect of the artificial intelligence
- 1:44:18Speaker 3: giants getting their nuclear plants. I don't think I'm ever
- 1:44:22Speaker 3: going to live next to a nuclear or next to
- 1:44:23Speaker 3: an army base where that might happen, and it's going
- 1:44:25Speaker 3: to happen fast track if we stay on this three
- 1:44:27Speaker 3: year more a three year window. But why can't you
- 1:44:31Speaker 3: and I, the unwashed masses have access to twenty four
- 1:44:33Speaker 3: to seven nuclear power? Well, because green and now there's
- 1:44:37Speaker 3: no answer to the question. They don't produce carbon dioxide,
- 1:44:39Speaker 3: they're safe, they don't melt down. There's no argument all
- 1:44:42Speaker 3: a three mile island that these plants aren't the answer
- 1:44:46Speaker 3: to every green alarmists moist dreams and then pivot over
- 1:44:55Speaker 3: to say, well, how come we just don't do wind turbines.
- 1:44:57Speaker 3: There's a brand new report out in Nature. A whole
- 1:45:00Speaker 3: bunch of ecologists, a group of them got together and
- 1:45:03Speaker 3: they revealed the effect of utility scale wind energy production,
- 1:45:08Speaker 3: which is unbelievable in terms of its devastation on the wildlife.
- 1:45:14Speaker 3: They point out that one million bats are killed in
- 1:45:17Speaker 3: countries with the highest number of turbines. Predators are also impacted, jaguars,
- 1:45:22Speaker 3: jungle cats, and golden jackals. They're bothered by the wind
- 1:45:26Speaker 3: turbines that these idiots have put up in tropical forests.
- 1:45:32Speaker 3: The researchers said the possibility of cascading effects of significant degradation.
- 1:45:40Speaker 3: Science team pointed out that these turbines can kill birds, bats,
- 1:45:43Speaker 3: and insects, change animal behavior. You may have read about
- 1:45:46Speaker 3: the whales behavior being impacted by these offshore developments, same
- 1:45:49Speaker 3: kind of thing physiologically and demography, altering the ecosystems. The
- 1:45:55Speaker 3: installation of these wind turbines invariably results in habitat d gradation,
- 1:46:02Speaker 3: and they point out its regions rich in biodiversity that
- 1:46:05Speaker 3: have the biggest impact. They suffer the most, these unspoiled
- 1:46:09Speaker 3: lands where these green alarmists want to build these big
- 1:46:12Speaker 3: windmill facilities and recognizing and knowing full well in advance
- 1:46:16Speaker 3: how much death they caused to the wildlife population. And
- 1:46:21Speaker 3: it was kind of an interesting point they made in
- 1:46:23Speaker 3: the reporting on this. You can check the Daily Skeptic
- 1:46:28Speaker 3: article by Chris Morrison just sort of breaking down what
- 1:46:30Speaker 3: this Nature article in The Ecologist concluded. But he interjected,
- 1:46:34Speaker 3: remember BP's Deepwater Horizon one of the worst offsore oil
- 1:46:38Speaker 3: spills ever. This estimates vary, but it's thought to have
- 1:46:43Speaker 3: led to the deaths of around six hundred thousand sea
- 1:46:45Speaker 3: birds and widespread condination by environmentalists Oh my god, the
- 1:46:49Speaker 3: seabirds got oil on it. Look, Oh my god, bring
- 1:46:52Speaker 3: out the dawn dishwashing liquid. Yeah, I won't argue that.
- 1:46:56Speaker 3: I wouldn't buy BP gasoline for years and years after
- 1:46:59Speaker 3: that happen, and a drunk captain ran a boat into
- 1:47:02Speaker 3: the ground. That's unforgivable. But nobody's paying an attention to
- 1:47:09Speaker 3: the five hundred thousand bats that are killed on shore
- 1:47:13Speaker 3: in the United States by wind turbines every single year.
- 1:47:21Speaker 3: You know, there were times when he read reports about
- 1:47:23Speaker 3: oil companies and there would be a bird that got
- 1:47:25Speaker 3: oil on it, and they would take a picture of it.
- 1:47:27Speaker 3: They would find the oil companies because of the degradation
- 1:47:30Speaker 3: to the environment, of the damage they were doing to
- 1:47:32Speaker 3: the poor animals out there in the world. Look a
- 1:47:34Speaker 3: bird's been soiled by oil. Look a bird's been chopped
- 1:47:37Speaker 3: up by a spinning wind turbine. Now we don't care
- 1:47:39Speaker 3: about that. We won't even talk about that. And that
- 1:47:42Speaker 3: wind turbine not providing you twenty four hour day, seven
- 1:47:45Speaker 3: a week, unlimited power, Inefficient yes, costly yes, in need
- 1:47:49Speaker 3: of maintenance and repair, yes, massive amounts of carbon and
- 1:47:52Speaker 3: the production of windmills yes. Built by Chinese companies to
- 1:47:56Speaker 3: the benefit of the Chinese Communist Party. Yes, what's right
- 1:47:59Speaker 3: with them? And horrific eye sores. The people that complained
- 1:48:03Speaker 3: about spoiling the unspoiled Alaskan wilderness with this evil oil
- 1:48:07Speaker 3: drill out there. Look over the great state of Indiana
- 1:48:11Speaker 3: and the thousands of windows you gotta stare out as
- 1:48:13Speaker 3: you're driving from here to eat. I don't know Indianapolis
- 1:48:16Speaker 3: or up to Gary, they're everywhere, and they look terrible.
- 1:48:20Speaker 3: And by the way, on the ground beneath all those
- 1:48:22Speaker 3: windmills are countless birds and bats that have been slaughtered
- 1:48:25Speaker 3: by them. But that's okay. We're supposed to put up
- 1:48:28Speaker 3: with that. The amount of birds that get fried in
- 1:48:32Speaker 3: solar panel rays. They just took down that Ivanhoe I
- 1:48:35Speaker 3: think was the name of a plant out west. Not
- 1:48:37Speaker 3: only did it underperform, it never did get full scale production.
- 1:48:41Speaker 3: They spent literally hundreds of millions of dollars building it,
- 1:48:44Speaker 3: and when the birds would fly through the array, they
- 1:48:46Speaker 3: would fry at a thousand degrees temperature. But the sun reflection, Yeah,
- 1:48:51Speaker 3: that's environmentally correct. This is nuts, folks, absolutely nuts. This
- 1:48:59Speaker 3: global warming carbon capture scam is the biggest scam ever

- 1:49:21Speaker 3: the talk station honor flight, last one of the year.
- 1:49:24Speaker 3: I strongly encourage listeners. I've been pointing this out all morning,
- 1:49:27Speaker 3: and I always do when again an honor flight. I
- 1:49:28Speaker 3: heard from my submarine or friend Mike this morning. He
- 1:49:31Speaker 3: was there seeing the primarily Vietnam veterans and a handful
- 1:49:35Speaker 3: of Korean war veterans off this morning. He's probably in
- 1:49:38Speaker 3: the air right now looking of a great day in Washington, DC.
- 1:49:41Speaker 3: In spite of the fact the governments shut down, unlike
- 1:49:43Speaker 3: the Obama administration, they're actually going to be able to
- 1:49:45Speaker 3: see their memorials. H interesting that see. If you don't
- 1:49:49Speaker 3: put a fence up, you have access to walk around.
- 1:49:54Speaker 3: Interesting concept. Anyway, show up tonight at CBG if you're
- 1:49:58Speaker 3: able to do so. A couple of thousand people usually
- 1:50:00Speaker 3: show up, and it is a well well worth the
- 1:50:02Speaker 3: trip effort for you. And if you have some young
- 1:50:05Speaker 3: people in your world, please get him out there to
- 1:50:07Speaker 3: see the American veterans, and it puts a smile on
- 1:50:09Speaker 3: everybody's faces and a much needed dose of healthy patriotism
- 1:50:14Speaker 3: going on at CVG tonight for the Welcome Home ceremony,
- 1:50:18Speaker 3: so that Daniel Davis Deep Dive coming up to the
- 1:50:19Speaker 3: next segment. In the meantime, I wanted to get this
- 1:50:21Speaker 3: out there because your passwords may have been exposed. Thank
- 1:50:26Speaker 3: God for tech Freddie's Dave Hatter, and he just did
- 1:50:28Speaker 3: a segment on passwords last Friday. If you want to
- 1:50:31Speaker 3: know how to do passwords better when it comes to
- 1:50:34Speaker 3: accessing your online material, listen to the podcast at fifty
- 1:50:38Speaker 3: five carecy dot com. He's brought this topic up many
- 1:50:40Speaker 3: many times, and I'd like to thank all of my
- 1:50:42Speaker 3: listeners at least got the message. Anyway, there's been a
- 1:50:45Speaker 3: massive leak just reported exposed more than one hundred and
- 1:50:48Speaker 3: eighty three million email passwords. I always check these security
- 1:50:56Speaker 3: breaches because yeah, I have had them happen. But every
- 1:50:58Speaker 3: time I read about one of these breaches, well, they
- 1:51:00Speaker 3: got your email address, they got your physical address, your
- 1:51:03Speaker 3: home address, and none of which I care about because
- 1:51:06Speaker 3: all of it's readily available on the internet. Anyway, passwords however,
- 1:51:09Speaker 3: should not be and well represent the biggest problem, and
- 1:51:13Speaker 3: that's one of the problems we have here. As Davis
- 1:51:15Speaker 3: pointed out, let me guess you have the same password
- 1:51:18Speaker 3: for all of your accounts. Lots and lots of people do.
- 1:51:22Speaker 3: I mean, you know, don't feel guilty if that's you.
- 1:51:24Speaker 3: But that's the point. You shouldn't. Password managers are apparently
- 1:51:28Speaker 3: the key to the problem. But this was three point
- 1:51:32Speaker 3: five terabytes of data. It was released online this month.
- 1:51:36Speaker 3: According to the researcher who runs a breach notification site
- 1:51:39Speaker 3: called have I Been Poned? Pwned? I spell it because
- 1:51:44Speaker 3: that's where you need to go to find out if
- 1:51:45Speaker 3: your email address and any other information has been stolen.
- 1:51:49Speaker 3: Have I been poned pwnd dot com? I did it
- 1:51:54Speaker 3: this morning, and yeah I have been. But then again
- 1:51:56Speaker 3: I knew about it. I took the liberty of typing
- 1:51:58Speaker 3: in Joe Strecker's company address into it. He has also
- 1:52:01Speaker 3: been poned with twenty two data breaches, having at least
- 1:52:04Speaker 3: his email address. So check it out, and the recommendation is,
- 1:52:10Speaker 3: of course, change your password. So the newest data set
- 1:52:14Speaker 3: contained again one hundred and eighty three million unique accounts,
- 1:52:17Speaker 3: including roughly sixteen point four addresses million addresses that had
- 1:52:21Speaker 3: never been released in any other prior breach, according to
- 1:52:25Speaker 3: the researchers on this So if it's never happened to
- 1:52:28Speaker 3: you before, it may very well be that this one
- 1:52:30Speaker 3: has now landed your doorstep. Cord to the researchers, most
- 1:52:34Speaker 3: of the entries are recycled from older breaches, which gives
- 1:52:37Speaker 3: me some comfort. But millions of newly compromised Gmail accounts
- 1:52:40Speaker 3: were verified when affected users confirmed that existing passwords still
- 1:52:45Speaker 3: matched their active credentials. Apparently, they can link your old
- 1:52:50Speaker 3: email address some prior breach and they've got your password,
- 1:52:54Speaker 3: you're still using the same password. Bad idea. So this league,
- 1:52:58Speaker 3: apparently first detected in April, made public just last week,
- 1:53:01Speaker 3: covers not only Gmail data, but also log in information
- 1:53:04Speaker 3: for Outlook, Yahoo, and they say hundreds of other web services.
- 1:53:11Speaker 3: Hunt said the breaches did not involve a direct hack
- 1:53:15Speaker 3: of Google's Gmail. They said they didn't go through the
- 1:53:18Speaker 3: big guy. What they did was sent out malware onto
- 1:53:22Speaker 3: your computer that ultimately captured your login information, like a
- 1:53:26Speaker 3: keystroke monitor or something. Again, going back to Dave Hatter,
- 1:53:29Speaker 3: be careful what you click on. But at least check
- 1:53:32Speaker 3: it out to see if you've had a data breach?
- 1:53:34Speaker 3: Have I been poned dot com again? Poned his pwned?
- 1:53:40Speaker 3: Maybe hearing about this from Dave Hatter on Friday as well.
- 1:53:43Speaker 3: Stick around, Daniel Davis Deep Dive Come in your Way,

- 1:53:59Speaker 3: wonderful in site into well combat theaters. Welcome back, Daniel Davis.
- 1:54:04Speaker 3: It's great to have you on the fifty five Krecen
- 1:54:06Speaker 3: Morning Show as always, my friend.
- 1:54:08Speaker 8: Always great to be here, Brian, thanks for having me.
- 1:54:10Speaker 3: Okay, little before we get to and I'm guessing this
- 1:54:13Speaker 3: has some connection with maybe some sort of peace negotiation
- 1:54:16Speaker 3: between Putin and the Ukrainian presidents Lunsky, but Russia said
- 1:54:22Speaker 3: it had successfully tested its Bura Vestnik cruise missile, described
- 1:54:26Speaker 3: by Moscow as being capable of piercing any defense shield.
- 1:54:30Speaker 3: Donald Trump responds by saying, Hey, we do have nuclear
- 1:54:34Speaker 3: submarine or a nuclear submarine off your shore. Just discussing
- 1:54:38Speaker 3: the test is inappropriate. Is this all posturing related to
- 1:54:41Speaker 3: Russia Ukraine or is this transcend that and involve more
- 1:54:45Speaker 3: geopolitical global issues between Russia and the United States.
- 1:54:49Speaker 8: Yeah, this is this transcends it. It's it certainly is
- 1:54:52Speaker 8: related to it, but it also goes beyond it. And
- 1:54:55Speaker 8: this boro of Sthnik missile is this significant advance technologically,
- 1:55:01Speaker 8: and it just makes the job a lot more difficult
- 1:55:04Speaker 8: to you know, Trump's earlier this summer he talked about
- 1:55:07Speaker 8: wanting to have this big golden dome that would be
- 1:55:09Speaker 8: this impervious shield that would protect us. It was never
- 1:55:13Speaker 8: gonna be the case. I mean, it's kind of an
- 1:55:15Speaker 8: aspirational situation. Because the technology of existing ICBMs and other
- 1:55:20Speaker 8: kinds of hypersonic missiles, the Rashnik they already are, we
- 1:55:24Speaker 8: don't have the capability to defend against any of those.
- 1:55:26Speaker 8: This one adds a new layer of complexity, So it's
- 1:55:30Speaker 8: just another thing that we couldn't intercept, and it certainly
- 1:55:33Speaker 8: our missiles are the same way for Russia. They can't
- 1:55:36Speaker 8: intercept a majority of our missile force either, whether from
- 1:55:40Speaker 8: a submarine, or from a silo or a bomber that
- 1:55:43Speaker 8: we may fire, et cetera. Basically, this just restates what
- 1:55:47Speaker 8: already exists. Don't go to nuclear war because it's going
- 1:55:50Speaker 8: to be mutually sure destruction.
- 1:55:53Speaker 3: That's the bottom line. Literally, just wrote mutually sure destruction
- 1:55:56Speaker 3: down because if you think about it, we were getting
- 1:56:00Speaker 3: further away from the concept of mutually assured destruction because
- 1:56:03Speaker 3: of our ability to shoot down rockets that are coming
- 1:56:06Speaker 3: our way. Well, if you can't shoot down the rockets
- 1:56:08Speaker 3: coming your way, they have it to be nuclear bombs.
- 1:56:10Speaker 3: No one's gonna want to launch them. We've got the technology,
- 1:56:13Speaker 3: they've got the technology. So it's it seems to me,
- 1:56:15Speaker 3: at least in terms of cold war reality and nuclear reality,
- 1:56:18Speaker 3: we're kind of back to a status quo thing here.
- 1:56:21Speaker 8: Yeah, it doesn't really change anything, just on a technical
- 1:56:25Speaker 8: capability and just looking at what this weapon will do.
- 1:56:29Speaker 8: It is pretty amazing, we got to admit, because it has. It's,
- 1:56:33Speaker 8: as far as I'm aware, the first missile that uses
- 1:56:38Speaker 8: nuclear fuel to actually propel it, which means basically kind
- 1:56:42Speaker 8: of like an aircraft carrier, nuclear powered aircraft carrier that
- 1:56:45Speaker 8: never in needs fuels, so it literally can fly forever
- 1:56:49Speaker 8: or as long as the components will allow, which means
- 1:56:51Speaker 8: it can fly all over the world. It can come
- 1:56:53Speaker 8: in from angles where your weapon systems are not oriented,
- 1:56:57Speaker 8: places where historically there was no threat. So nothing is
- 1:57:00Speaker 8: off the table here. So it just adds another layer
- 1:57:03Speaker 8: of don't get into a nuclear war, but it doesn't
- 1:57:06Speaker 8: change anything in the overall game.
- 1:57:07Speaker 3: As you pointed out, well, and that's the first time
- 1:57:09Speaker 3: I've ever had to describe that way, this sort of
- 1:57:11Speaker 3: unlimited range kind of thing. You're talking about unlimited range
- 1:57:15Speaker 3: at hypersonic speeds. It's actually subsonic speed. It's like a
- 1:57:20Speaker 3: cruise missile.
- 1:57:20Speaker 8: It's not too much dissimilar from our Tomahawk's cruise missile,
- 1:57:25Speaker 8: except that it has no limits on range.
- 1:57:27Speaker 3: It literally can fly everywhere because of the nuclear fuel. Okay, well,
- 1:57:31Speaker 3: let's pivot back over to the actual fighting war going
- 1:57:34Speaker 3: on between Russia and Ukraine. It appears as those Lensky's
- 1:57:37Speaker 3: trying to entertain another discussion on peace negotiations. Venue seems
- 1:57:42Speaker 3: to be an issue, but he doesn't want to move
- 1:57:44Speaker 3: out of any area. He doesn't want to seed any
- 1:57:47Speaker 3: area to Russia. In other words, week number whatever. Daniel
- 1:57:51Speaker 3: Davis we're kind of in the status quo position relative
- 1:57:54Speaker 3: to the bargaining and the negotiations, are we not?
- 1:57:58Speaker 8: The Ukraine side wants to have a just and lasting
- 1:58:03Speaker 8: peace according to their definition. The Russians I actually had
- 1:58:08Speaker 8: or will have on my show earlier this or later
- 1:58:10Speaker 8: this morning, the ambassador, the deputy UN Ambassador for Russia,
- 1:58:14Speaker 8: whom I point blank and impressed him and ask I said,
- 1:58:18Speaker 8: if you don't get these these conditions that you're asking for,
- 1:58:22Speaker 8: what will you do? And he just says, we'll either
- 1:58:25Speaker 8: get this negotiation or we'll win it on the battlefield.
- 1:58:27Speaker 8: And he said there's no way around it, and he
- 1:58:29Speaker 8: laid it out. Their conditions, which are what Putin has
- 1:58:33Speaker 8: said many times is the root causes of the war,
- 1:58:35Speaker 8: the NATO, the you know, the so called demilitarization, denotification,
- 1:58:39Speaker 8: and the territory, et cetera. So you have what Zelensky's
- 1:58:42Speaker 8: saying is a fair and just peace and what the
- 1:58:43Speaker 8: Russians are saying are wholly incompatible. And then you have
- 1:58:47Speaker 8: to look at who's got the military capacity, and right now,
- 1:58:51Speaker 8: I mean, we know where that's going to go. But
- 1:58:52Speaker 8: there are two big pockets where up to ten thousand
- 1:58:55Speaker 8: Ukrainian soldiers are in a cauldron right now, and things
- 1:59:00Speaker 8: don't change pretty quick. If they don't withdraw from those things,
- 1:59:04Speaker 8: they could lose thousands of troops in a short period
- 1:59:06Speaker 8: of time. As Russia just continues its relentless and methodical
- 1:59:10Speaker 8: move forward, however slow it is, it still moves forward well.
- 1:59:14Speaker 3: In addition to their own troops, Russia seems to have
- 1:59:18Speaker 3: an extra source of troops. We've talked about this before,
- 1:59:20Speaker 3: North Koreans on the front lines and providing some military
- 1:59:23Speaker 3: assistance for this conflict. I just heard, I believe it
- 1:59:26Speaker 3: was this morning or yesterday, that the reward to North
- 1:59:29Speaker 3: Korea may be that it's getting assistance from Russia insofar
- 1:59:32Speaker 3: as the development of its chrismisile technology for nuclear weapons.
- 1:59:36Speaker 3: Any suggestion of truth to that, Daniel Davis.
- 1:59:40Speaker 8: That's been suggested from the beginning with the first time
- 1:59:43Speaker 8: that North Korean troops went in to help Russians in
- 1:59:45Speaker 8: the course area. There's also been reports over the last
- 1:59:49Speaker 8: couple of months that there could be as many as
- 1:59:52Speaker 8: seventy thousand North Korean troops come over. And one of
- 1:59:55Speaker 8: the things I suspect you just from a military analyst,
- 1:59:57Speaker 8: specific perspective is that the North Koreas that we're sending
- 2:00:01Speaker 8: troops over there not so much a big help to
- 2:00:03Speaker 8: Russia because they don't really need it, and it's actually
- 2:00:05Speaker 8: a headache to try and incorporate a large formations that
- 2:00:08Speaker 8: speak a different language and are used to operating the
- 2:00:11Speaker 8: way you do. As a stop to Kim Jong Lun.
- 2:00:14Speaker 8: For the artillery rounds, he's getting the missiles that the
- 2:00:17Speaker 8: physical missiles he's been getting. He's getting combat experience for
- 2:00:21Speaker 8: his troops that they haven't had since, you know, nineteen fifties.
- 2:00:24Speaker 8: So and now then you see they're taking what they
- 2:00:28Speaker 8: had already from the course area and they're expanding it within.
- 2:00:31Speaker 8: So I think this is just an example and an
- 2:00:33Speaker 8: opportunity for North Korea to expand its combat capability.
- 2:00:36Speaker 3: Fair enough on that, and you have brought up the
- 2:00:38Speaker 3: troop experience component before, and it's something really worth noting
- 2:00:41Speaker 3: considering that's a real powder keg going on in between
- 2:00:45Speaker 3: North and South Korea as well. Let's here we go,
- 2:00:48Speaker 3: let's die back over to Israel. Gaza, as I said
- 2:00:51Speaker 3: I think last week, and I've certainly mentioned in the
- 2:00:53Speaker 3: morning show, if you're shooting at each other, I don't
- 2:00:55Speaker 3: know how you can call it a cease fire, but
- 2:00:57Speaker 3: there still seems to be some quote unquote warfare going
- 2:01:01Speaker 3: on right now. What's where are we with? Uh, with
- 2:01:03Speaker 3: with moving toward phase two phase one declaration of a ceasefire,
- 2:01:08Speaker 3: obviously these complications with that, but we need to move
- 2:01:11Speaker 3: forward with the peace process. Is it falling apart? Daniel Davis?
- 2:01:16Speaker 8: Uh, I'm not sure it ever fell together completely. So
- 2:01:20Speaker 8: so yeah, that uh, it's it's definitely tenuous, is the
- 2:01:23Speaker 8: best you can put it. But there continues to be uh,
- 2:01:26Speaker 8: you know, offensive operations going on in the Gaza Strip,
- 2:01:30Speaker 8: in the West Bank, in Lebanon, Uh, even some in
- 2:01:33Speaker 8: Yemen of recent days. And uh, the there's there's different stories.
- 2:01:38Speaker 8: You can decide who you want to believe. We don't
- 2:01:40Speaker 8: really know really where the truth is. You have Hamas
- 2:01:43Speaker 8: sand with a red Cross that they're doing everything they
- 2:01:45Speaker 8: can to get the remainder of those uh deceased hostage
- 2:01:48Speaker 8: remains back the Uh. The Israeli sets said, no, we
- 2:01:51Speaker 8: have intelligence that they're holding on to them and they're
- 2:01:54Speaker 8: not returning them, and so that we're gonna go back
- 2:01:56Speaker 8: in maybe militarily, et cetera. We're gonna push this so
- 2:01:59Speaker 8: called yellow line back further into them. We're going to
- 2:02:01Speaker 8: reduce the amount of food aid going into the entire
- 2:02:04Speaker 8: Gauza Strip, which, by the way, whatever you may view
- 2:02:07Speaker 8: on the situation, you can't do that at international law.
- 2:02:10Speaker 8: You can't punish an entire population because of what the
- 2:02:13Speaker 8: leadership of the Hamas is doing. But that's what's happening
- 2:02:16Speaker 8: right now, and so that is just it continues to
- 2:02:19Speaker 8: undermine trust in all directions, if there was any at all.
- 2:02:22Speaker 8: And it is better than it was, but it's not
- 2:02:27Speaker 8: really a cease far and so far until you get
- 2:02:29Speaker 8: those hostage remains back, or at least that resolved. I
- 2:02:33Speaker 8: don't think they're even going to start negotiation for the
- 2:02:35Speaker 8: so called phase two, So I think we're still in
- 2:02:37Speaker 8: a sort of phase one ish time.
- 2:02:39Speaker 3: Okay, in so far and before we part copy here
- 2:02:42Speaker 3: getting the hostages the decease hostages back. I think you
- 2:02:45Speaker 3: had previously suggest that this isn't really Hamas foot dragging
- 2:02:49Speaker 3: so much as they just don't know where the remains
- 2:02:52Speaker 3: might happen to be. Is that still your.
- 2:02:54Speaker 8: Perception, not that they didn't know where they were, but
- 2:02:57Speaker 8: that they couldn't get at them.
- 2:02:58Speaker 3: Oh.
- 2:02:58Speaker 8: But now, of course these Raeli side is saying no,
- 2:03:01Speaker 8: they do know where they are, they know how to
- 2:03:03Speaker 8: get them, and they're just not giving them up. And
- 2:03:05Speaker 8: I'm not in a position to say whether that's true
- 2:03:07Speaker 8: or not true. But that's the accusation. So both sides
- 2:03:10Speaker 8: are lobbying counter accusations. And you know, we have the
- 2:03:13Speaker 8: risk of this thing blowing back up at any time.
- 2:03:15Speaker 3: That's the bottom line. Maybe prayer is in order since
- 2:03:18Speaker 3: we don't really have any easies. See there is, and
- 2:03:21Speaker 3: I do that on a daily basis. Amen, Brother, pray
- 2:03:24Speaker 3: for the folks that are dealing with those terrible situations.
- 2:03:27Speaker 3: Daniel Davis Deep dive again, get it where you get
- 2:03:29Speaker 3: your podcasts. I always enjoy your thoughtful analysis, Daniel Davis,
- 2:03:32Speaker 3: to look forward to doing it again next week.

- 2:04:46Speaker 3: recognize the federal government to shutdown someone who's intimately familiar
- 2:04:49Speaker 3: with the problem that we're facing right now, Senator John Houston,
- 2:04:52Speaker 3: Welcome back to the fifty five KRC Morning Show. It's
- 2:04:54Speaker 3: a real pleasure to have you on today.
- 2:04:56Speaker 4: Great to be with you. Thanks for having me.
- 2:04:58Speaker 3: I note that the American Federation government employees is on
- 2:05:01Speaker 3: the Republicans side of the ledger telling the Democrats basically
- 2:05:04Speaker 3: because this has got to be levy that the Democrats,
- 2:05:07Speaker 3: normally Democratic allies this union. They're saying, pass the continuing resolution,
- 2:05:11Speaker 3: you got a clean funding bills sitting there, put us
- 2:05:13Speaker 3: all back to work. Gosh darning. Is this going to
- 2:05:16Speaker 3: change the dynamic, Senator? Or are we going to wait
- 2:05:19Speaker 3: for even more pain to come, which might include the
- 2:05:22Speaker 3: end of SNAP for some people with nutrition assistance being impacted,
- 2:05:26Speaker 3: head start of the problems we're already having with the
- 2:05:29Speaker 3: air traffic controllers not showing up to work even though
- 2:05:31Speaker 3: they're critical employees. The problems are mounting. But when is
- 2:05:35Speaker 3: the breaking point, I presume, for the Democrats, or will
- 2:05:37Speaker 3: the Republicans end up capitulating.
- 2:05:40Speaker 4: The Republicans are united in this because we are not
- 2:05:44Speaker 4: playing games. We're just saying, hey, open the government, keep
- 2:05:47Speaker 4: it at its current funding levels, serve the American people.
- 2:05:51Speaker 4: By the way, it costs US four hundred million dollars
- 2:05:53Speaker 4: a week in salaries, and many of those salaries ultimately
- 2:05:57Speaker 4: will be paid, but we will not get the work
- 2:05:59Speaker 4: in return that ralry from all of these hundreds of
- 2:06:02Speaker 4: thousands of people and just let's go. Let's stop playing games.
- 2:06:07Speaker 4: Chuck Schumer thirteen times when Joe Biden was president, passing
- 2:06:11Speaker 4: clean continuing resolutions, Republicans, You know, Republicans helped. But now
- 2:06:17Speaker 4: they hate Donald Trump so much that they're not willing
- 2:06:21Speaker 4: to They're willing to make the American people suffer to
- 2:06:24Speaker 4: try to embarrass the president. But it's not working and
- 2:06:28Speaker 4: I don't see, unfortunately, any break in sight. Democrats seem
- 2:06:34Speaker 4: to be dug in in their position because their left
- 2:06:37Speaker 4: flank will not let them do otherwise. At a point
- 2:06:40Speaker 4: in time, well, I mean, frankly, they made a decision,
- 2:06:43Speaker 4: then they can't wiggle their way out of right now
- 2:06:45Speaker 4: they're having a hard time figuring out how to do that.
- 2:06:48Speaker 3: Yeah, the only solution seems to be continuing at the
- 2:06:51Speaker 3: Biden era funding levels, which we can't emphasize enough. And
- 2:06:54Speaker 3: this was the prudent, smart political move by Republicans, much
- 2:06:58Speaker 3: of the chagrin of Congress from Mass nine Er stand
- 2:07:00Speaker 3: his point on this. We need to cut government, not
- 2:07:02Speaker 3: keep things a status quo. But you took all the
- 2:07:04Speaker 3: wind of the Democrats sales and saying no, these are
- 2:07:07Speaker 3: your funding levels and parenthetically, it's your deadline in December
- 2:07:11Speaker 3: to and these supplements. This is something one hundred percent
- 2:07:14Speaker 3: owned by you. That's just it's made. It's put the
- 2:07:16Speaker 3: Democrats in a possible position.
- 2:07:19Speaker 4: Yeah, you can. It's easy to start a fight, it's
- 2:07:21Speaker 4: hard to get out of one, and political fights, especially
- 2:07:25Speaker 4: because you know, you have to say, well, what did
- 2:07:27Speaker 4: I get for all of this? What did I you know,
- 2:07:30Speaker 4: twenty eight days of shutting the government down and causing
- 2:07:32Speaker 4: all kinds of challenges for working you know, families from
- 2:07:35Speaker 4: military air traffic controllers, Homeland security ts agents, all those people. Okay,
- 2:07:41Speaker 4: we put them through all of this, didn't pay them,
- 2:07:43Speaker 4: made them work. But but now we're just gonna do what?
- 2:07:47Speaker 4: Like what what's what's their exit strategy? They don't have
- 2:07:49Speaker 4: an exit strategy, and they're in a pickle.
- 2:07:54Speaker 3: Well, I don't expect this to happen to Congressman John Houston, but.
- 2:08:00Speaker 5: I have to.
- 2:08:01Speaker 3: My guess is there are more Democrats, say leaning Fetterman.
- 2:08:06Speaker 3: And at what point in time did you and I
- 2:08:07Speaker 3: ever think that we would be pointing to Fetterman as
- 2:08:10Speaker 3: the example of common sense and reason the Democrat Party,
- 2:08:14Speaker 3: But the Alexandrier or Casio Coortes, socialist, far leftist winger.
- 2:08:19Speaker 3: The party has totally dominated the conversation and the narrative
- 2:08:23Speaker 3: and the political moves by the Democrats. Is there still
- 2:08:26Speaker 3: a will to maybe say, uh, these are all loser issues,
- 2:08:30Speaker 3: the AOC's of the world, and that when you're the
- 2:08:33Speaker 3: party are on the wrong side of all these eighty
- 2:08:35Speaker 3: twenty issues. If we're going to ever get our party back,
- 2:08:37Speaker 3: we need to change gears.
- 2:08:39Speaker 4: I think that you're onto something right there, because I
- 2:08:43Speaker 4: do sense that there are a number of Democrats who
- 2:08:47Speaker 4: who don't like this left leaning lurch that's happened, I
- 2:08:50Speaker 4: mean extreme left leaning lurch that's happened in their party.
- 2:08:54Speaker 4: And when they see because I remember, like they they're
- 2:08:59Speaker 4: going to see real people suffer. Who are their constituents
- 2:09:03Speaker 4: that they said they should be fighting for, who are
- 2:09:05Speaker 4: going to lose as a result and really have hardships
- 2:09:09Speaker 4: as a result of their decisions. And I think that
- 2:09:12Speaker 4: there's a growing sentiment among some Democrats. At least five
- 2:09:16Speaker 4: or remember three of them evoated with us. We need
- 2:09:18Speaker 4: five more. There's at least five more Democrats who agree
- 2:09:22Speaker 4: that we should do a continuing resolution and get back
- 2:09:24Speaker 4: to work. But right now, Chuck Schumer is so scared
- 2:09:27Speaker 4: of his left flank that he must continue the Schumer
- 2:09:30Speaker 4: shut down as a way to protect himself, because what's
- 2:09:33Speaker 4: he going to say if he if he said, Okay,
- 2:09:35Speaker 4: twenty eight days is enough, the radical left would skewer him.
- 2:09:41Speaker 3: They would be an acknowledgment. That was a terrible strategy,
- 2:09:44Speaker 3: which you and I have pointed out here in this conversation.
- 2:09:46Speaker 3: It is a terrible strategy.
- 2:09:48Speaker 4: I think. I think that sometimes leaders need need the
- 2:09:51Speaker 4: troops to save them from themselves. If he could get
- 2:09:55Speaker 4: I think if you just hold his nose and allow
- 2:09:58Speaker 4: five of the more moderate leaning Democrats to join us,
- 2:10:01Speaker 4: get the government open, they could do a reset and
- 2:10:04Speaker 4: then begin a negotiation over the next few weeks, because
- 2:10:08Speaker 4: remember a clean cr only keeps the government open until
- 2:10:10Speaker 4: November twenty one. No, they don't lose any leverage. They
- 2:10:13Speaker 4: can will be right back where we are. It's just
- 2:10:16Speaker 4: that right now there's no discussions going on because they
- 2:10:18Speaker 4: won't open the government so that we can fund things
- 2:10:21Speaker 4: and move on from that debate. Every day they wait,
- 2:10:24Speaker 4: the things that they want are less likely to happen.
- 2:10:28Speaker 4: And I have to tell you that there's something that's
- 2:10:30Speaker 4: really rich that's happening where the Democrats are saying the
- 2:10:33Speaker 4: president should just fund snap right the food program. They
- 2:10:39Speaker 4: held a rally last week and that a weekend too casogo,
- 2:10:43Speaker 4: So it's no kings. But now they want them to
- 2:10:45Speaker 4: act like a king right and just just fund the
- 2:10:48Speaker 4: things that they want, even though they are refusing to
- 2:10:52Speaker 4: fulfill their responsibility. You want kings, then Congress act fund
- 2:10:57Speaker 4: things that you want and don't force them to have
- 2:10:59Speaker 4: to act like a king. For goodness sakes, this is crazy.
- 2:11:02Speaker 3: And of course they passed up a couple of opportunities
- 2:11:04Speaker 3: to do just that, getting the American military paid, for example,
- 2:11:06Speaker 3: the air traffic controllers paid. No, we're not going to
- 2:11:08Speaker 3: do a piece mail. They're just going to put too
- 2:11:10Speaker 3: much power in the hands of Donald Trump, a man
- 2:11:12Speaker 3: who I guess they wish had more power so he
- 2:11:14Speaker 3: could get things paid for that they want to get
- 2:11:16Speaker 3: paid for.
- 2:11:17Speaker 4: Senator Johnas literally empowering him more and more every day
- 2:11:21Speaker 4: that they do this, and then they claim that they
- 2:11:23Speaker 4: don't want to empower him, but that's exactly what they're doing.
- 2:11:26Speaker 3: It's just such hypocrisy, not that it changes the political
- 2:11:29Speaker 3: landscape if they change their minds and open the government backup,
- 2:11:33Speaker 3: Senator Houston before we part company, do you think part
- 2:11:35Speaker 3: of them just wants to wait till the election next
- 2:11:37Speaker 3: week to see how things go. The elections that have
- 2:11:40Speaker 3: some sort of that are closely watched that are kind
- 2:11:43Speaker 3: of cliffhangers for whether a state's gone blue or red.
- 2:11:46Speaker 3: Is that part of the game plan you think at all?
- 2:11:50Speaker 4: Could be? Could be part of it. Look, they're looking
- 2:11:53Speaker 4: for an exit strategy, and you know, look they're running
- 2:11:58Speaker 4: in the mayor for New York like geea, Democrats going
- 2:12:02Speaker 4: to win that. You know, it's likely that in the
- 2:12:04Speaker 4: blue states where all the elections are that they will
- 2:12:07Speaker 4: do well. But then they're going to try to claim
- 2:12:09Speaker 4: some kind of victory over that. Well, I mean hardly.
- 2:12:12Speaker 4: That's like saying that if a Republican wins the governorship
- 2:12:16Speaker 4: of Indiana that that's a big deal.
- 2:12:19Speaker 3: I mean, come on, now, no question.
- 2:12:23Speaker 4: I think that they're looking for any excuse that they
- 2:12:26Speaker 4: can to get out of a pickle that they've created
- 2:12:28Speaker 4: for themselves.
- 2:12:29Speaker 3: Well, let's say Mandami lost. Let's say some of the
- 2:12:32Speaker 3: other government races that are closely watched. The darkrats lose.
- 2:12:35Speaker 3: Wouldn't that be a golden opportunity for CHUCKI. Schumer to
- 2:12:37Speaker 3: stand up and say, all right, all right, the people
- 2:12:39Speaker 3: have spoken us. Shifting so far to the left has
- 2:12:42Speaker 3: lost our voters. We need to right the ship and
- 2:12:45Speaker 3: head on the right direction. Here's what we're gonna do
- 2:12:47Speaker 3: when are going forward bases beginning with opening the government
- 2:12:49Speaker 3: up possible political strategy to get things going in the direction.
- 2:12:53Speaker 3: Senator Houston.
- 2:12:55Speaker 4: Uh, there is no chance. No, that's what Chuck Shamber
- 2:12:58Speaker 4: will conclude.
- 2:12:58Speaker 3: I had to throw it out there, John God bless.
- 2:13:01Speaker 12: You, even though even though it makes a lot of sense,
- 2:13:03Speaker 12: no chance he's gonna chose that, you know, if I
- 2:13:06Speaker 12: was king of the world anyhow, Senor Johnny, thank you
- 2:13:09Speaker 12: for your time today, Sir, Keep fighting the good fight
- 2:13:11Speaker 12: on behalf of the American people, and we'll see what happens.
- 2:13:14Speaker 3: All of our collective popcorn is out.
