0:01
Speaker 1: We'll do it making mornings great again.
0:04
Speaker 2: The first thing today on the Tunk Media appo Thomas
0:08
Speaker 2: We'll do it line Jewart.
0:10
Speaker 3: Said, steal me.
0:13
Speaker 4: A day at least for work. When the sun comes up,
0:17
Speaker 4: drops a kid, just goood joys add all the treasure
0:23
Speaker 4: needs no one that Joe's as smiled, He only as.
0:33
Speaker 3: Oh, bless you for letting us be of service to
0:35
Speaker 3: you as we gather on this Saturday morning. A reminder
0:43
Speaker 3: that we do this live because you're getting ready for
0:47
Speaker 3: work just like we do Monday through Friday. And you
0:51
Speaker 3: need to know what was going on because for some reason,
0:55
Speaker 3: for some reason, even though the demographics have changed, and
0:58
Speaker 3: and and I think there's more downstream from society than
1:03
Speaker 3: just politics, because I think I think industry has become
1:09
Speaker 3: so slow and so top heavy that they don't react
1:16
Speaker 3: well when society changes. And gig economy and COVID, even
1:21
Speaker 3: though it was a self inflicted wound for a lot,
1:25
Speaker 3: just changed the world and people realized, you know what,
1:30
Speaker 3: I can do it myself. I don't need Barack Obama
1:35
Speaker 3: to build it for me, and I pay taxes for
1:39
Speaker 3: the stuff that I have built for me. So sit
1:42
Speaker 3: down and stick a sock in it. And that's you know,
1:49
Speaker 3: that's why we get up here every Saturday morning, and
1:51
Speaker 3: we're here for you to a flagship station in Stanton
1:54
Speaker 3: and Harrisonburg, Virginia. UH, and our friends Long Island News
1:59
Speaker 3: Radio w CAAP up and Lowell and so many new places.
2:03
Speaker 3: Welcome new friends in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Do we know if
2:07
Speaker 3: WGOW is taking the Saturday show too, I don't know.
2:11
Speaker 3: It's so many things going on in the world, and
2:16
Speaker 3: foremost to it is this battle of President Trump was
2:19
Speaker 3: asked on Friday about the Southern Poverty Law Center, and
2:23
Speaker 3: everyone's lost their collective battle control over his answer that
2:28
Speaker 3: you should just scrap the twenty twenty election. Oh no,
2:31
Speaker 3: he's not that twenty twenty election. Again, Republicans all over
2:34
Speaker 3: the place. This is why they won't pass the Save
2:37
Speaker 3: Act because they're still hung up on the twenty twenty election.
2:40
Speaker 3: And how many different things are we going to have
2:43
Speaker 3: to find out about twenty twenty before somebody gets off
2:47
Speaker 3: their ass and starts admitting that maybe President Trump was
2:51
Speaker 3: right about twenty twenty. Oh, I know it's in politic
2:56
Speaker 3: and oh, but they've certified the elections. It's not too
2:59
Speaker 3: late to get it right the next time. That's the
3:02
Speaker 3: problem with the world right now is we live in
3:05
Speaker 3: the past and we pretend the past is the future
3:08
Speaker 3: or something along those lines. You want to talk about
3:11
Speaker 3: irony and a place where perhaps California does it right.
3:16
Speaker 3: Voters citizens were able to get enough signatures on a
3:20
Speaker 3: petition to put a proof of citizenship requirement into California
3:27
Speaker 3: election law. It will appear on November's ballot in the
3:33
Speaker 3: California elections. It's backed by Republicans and pitched as a
3:39
Speaker 3: common sense idea to strengthen confidence in voting, even as
3:43
Speaker 3: their congressional representatives haggle over it. Of course, most of
3:48
Speaker 3: California's election elected representatives in Congress are Democrats, so go
3:53
Speaker 3: figure Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner in Pakistan this morning.
3:58
Speaker 3: So is Iranian foreign minus Abbas Arachi. However, Arachi has said,
4:05
Speaker 3: don't expect me to sit down and talk directly with
4:08
Speaker 3: the Americans, but they will be each talking to Pakistani
4:12
Speaker 3: envoys in peace talks this morning, according to Iranian state media.
4:19
Speaker 3: That's the Associated Press if you're wondering. Tehran has resumed
4:24
Speaker 3: commercial flights from their international airport I don't believe Spirit
4:28
Speaker 3: Airlines is flying there right now. Speaking of Spirit Airlines,
4:33
Speaker 3: President Trump is considering using the Defense Production Act as
4:38
Speaker 3: their legal basis to basically take over Spirit Airlines in
4:43
Speaker 3: a bailout. A source told Reuters that they want to
4:46
Speaker 3: use Title three of the Act that allows the US
4:49
Speaker 3: government to invest in industrial capacity to ensure supply chains
4:54
Speaker 3: for national defense. Speaking of national defense, China's deep seek
5:00
Speaker 3: Ai launched a preview of its version four on Friday,
5:05
Speaker 3: as the AI rivalry heats up. Open Ai and Anthropic
5:10
Speaker 3: have both accused the chicoms of unfairly building their technology
5:14
Speaker 3: off of their own because that's what China does. European
5:19
Speaker 3: Union approved a one hundred and six billion dollar loan
5:23
Speaker 3: package to help Ukraine meet its economic and military needs
5:27
Speaker 3: for two more years after oil began flowing through a
5:30
Speaker 3: key pipeline to Hungary and Slovakia, who had been hanging
5:34
Speaker 3: up the aid package. Philadelphia Eagles general manager Howie Roseman
5:40
Speaker 3: said that in the age of name image likeness, several
5:43
Speaker 3: players like Miami's Carson Beck that was drafted number one
5:47
Speaker 3: in the third round, will earn less in the pros
5:50
Speaker 3: than they did in college.
5:52
Speaker 5: Every state is home to significant historic sites that tell
5:55
Speaker 5: the American story, but not every site is telling that
5:58
Speaker 5: story honestly fair. That's why the Heritage Foundation created the
6:03
Speaker 5: Heritage Guide to Historic Sites. This interactive guide equips American
6:07
Speaker 5: citizens with the tools they need to enjoy the sites
6:11
Speaker 5: that depict some of the greatest moments in our nation's history,
6:14
Speaker 5: analyzing them for historical accuracy, and provides resources for families
6:19
Speaker 5: or educators planning a visit. It currently covers over forty
6:23
Speaker 5: five sites in the thirteen original colonies, but sites from
6:27
Speaker 5: all fifty states will be added in time for citizens
6:30
Speaker 5: to celebrate America to fifty this summer. From Mount Vernon
6:34
Speaker 5: to Independence Hall to Gettysburg and more. Americans deserve transparency,
6:39
Speaker 5: and sites that steward our history faithfully deserve our gratitude.
6:43
Speaker 5: The Heritage Guide to Historic Sites invites every American to
6:47
Speaker 5: rediscover the places and stories that define our nation, whether
6:51
Speaker 5: it's across the country or in your backyard. Visit Historic

7:04
Speaker 7: people are actually happier with it. That sounds like something
7:07
Speaker 7: to look into, and that's meta Share. Maybe you've heard
7:10
Speaker 7: joining metashare can save you or your family up to
7:13
Speaker 7: five hundred bucks a month, and that's huge, But it's
7:16
Speaker 7: also true. People are just happier with it. They love
7:18
Speaker 7: being part of something that reflects and promotes their.
7:21
Speaker 8: Values and what they believe in.
7:23
Speaker 3: Meda Share works too.
7:24
Speaker 7: It's been around for thirty years now and members have
7:27
Speaker 7: shared more than seven billion dollars of each other's bills.
7:31
Speaker 7: People love having telehealth and a huge nationwide ppo networks.
7:34

Speaker 7: it better. Imagine being happy with how you're taking care
7:39
Speaker 7: of your health care, whether you're self employed or part
7:42
Speaker 7: of the gig economy, or you just want to plan

Speaker 9: Forty considered by most Optimized curcumin is one of the
8:07
Speaker 9: few bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market.
8:12
Speaker 9: I am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation,
8:18
Speaker 9: our optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to
8:22
Speaker 9: any nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing
8:26
Speaker 9: or reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
8:31
Speaker 9: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
8:36
Speaker 9: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
8:42
Speaker 9: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
8:46
Speaker 9: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
8:51
Speaker 9: healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com where

Speaker 12: Hi, everybody, I'm Jackhannah.
10:00
Speaker 13: As always a boy growing up on a farm in Tennessee,
10:02
Speaker 13: I've been fascinated with animals. I'm not only in awe
10:05
Speaker 13: of their beauty and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic.
10:08
Speaker 13: Just look at the birds who gather supplies to build nests,
10:11
Speaker 13: or Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,
10:14
Speaker 13: or penguins who travel up to five hundred miles to
10:17
Speaker 13: secure food for their families, or bush babies whose impressive
10:20
Speaker 13: jump allows them to navigate the trees and the wild
10:22
Speaker 13: in search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared
10:25
Speaker 13: by our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are
10:28
Speaker 13: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
10:32
Speaker 13: they also perform life saving work every day.
10:34
Speaker 12: Dogs keep us safe at airports.
10:36
Speaker 13: They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTS.
10:39
Speaker 13: They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change
10:41
Speaker 13: in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of
10:44
Speaker 13: highly trained roles that contribute to society and help those
10:47
Speaker 13: in need. So please join me an American Humane and
10:50
Speaker 13: supporting our heroic working dogs and all the amazing animals
10:53

13:17
Speaker 2: Absolute first thing today on the Talk Media Network by
13:23
Speaker 2: Joe Thomasday.
13:37
Speaker 3: No, actually it was August twelfth of twenty seventeen. That's
13:42
Speaker 3: Saturday in the party. Oh no, no, it was August.
13:47
Speaker 3: It was the twelfth of August of twenty seventeen, when
13:51
Speaker 3: the Southern Poverty Law Center paid a bunch of clowns
13:54
Speaker 3: and gowns or geeks and sheets to role play a
14:01
Speaker 3: Hitler youth on the streets of my hometown. And I
14:05
Speaker 3: have a particularly different view on this than a lot
14:08
Speaker 3: of the folks you'll read about. My friend Tyler at
14:13
Speaker 3: the Daily Signal has written extensively about the Southern Poverty
14:16
Speaker 3: Law Center in its dangers, as have I. I burned
14:19
Speaker 3: my relationship with incoming Governor Glenn Youngkin because it was
14:24
Speaker 3: discovered on my program that the Carlisle Group that he
14:27
Speaker 3: had been in charge of had given large sums of
14:30
Speaker 3: money to the Southern Poverty Law Center in an effort
14:33
Speaker 3: he answered the question on my SHO always said it
14:35
Speaker 3: was a blind spot. I said, so give us a
14:37
Speaker 3: reason why you won't have the same blind spots of
14:40
Speaker 3: your governor, And he said, I'm just going to work
14:44
Speaker 3: really hard, and there's a reasonable look back at the
14:49
Speaker 3: four years that there were a couple of blind spots
14:51
Speaker 3: that he had. But the more you ask a centralized
14:56
Speaker 3: government to do, the more you're going to run into
14:59
Speaker 3: blind spots. Bigger an organization gats the further from the
15:05
Speaker 3: folks who invented the idea of the organization, the more
15:08
Speaker 3: blind spots you're going to have. The reason I bring
15:10
Speaker 3: this up is yesterday afternoon, President Trump inflamed half the
15:15
Speaker 3: Republicans and all the Democrats again saying that the twenty
15:20
Speaker 3: twenty election should be wiped from the books. Obviously a
15:24
Speaker 3: rhetorical point, pointing to the scam that it was. And
15:31
Speaker 3: it didn't begin with the Southern Poverty Law Center paying
15:37
Speaker 3: members of the Unite the Right rally to what's the
15:41
Speaker 3: expression in law enforcement? All you look, you know Nassau
15:44
Speaker 3: County cops, you'd tell me what is it? If you can't,
15:49
Speaker 3: if you can't get them to sing, get them to compose.
15:52
Speaker 3: That's what they tell you. That's what they teach the
15:55
Speaker 3: FBI at Quantico, Right, If you can't get them to sing,
15:59
Speaker 3: maybe you can and encourage them to compose. And that's
16:02
Speaker 3: what the Southern Poverty Law Center is accused of. They
16:06
Speaker 3: wanted racial events in twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen to use
16:13
Speaker 3: against Donald Trump, and they paid one of the organizers
16:18
Speaker 3: of that deadly riot in Charlottesville that took the lives
16:22
Speaker 3: of two Great State troopers who were there guarding the camera,
16:27
Speaker 3: chasing Governor Terry mccauliffe, and the life of one of
16:35
Speaker 3: the left wing activists, Heather Hire. Social media posts unearthed
16:45
Speaker 3: since because of the Wayback Machine indicate that somebody claiming
16:50
Speaker 3: to have the same title that the Southern Poverty Law
16:53
Speaker 3: Center Confidential Informant. I hope you could hear the air
16:58
Speaker 3: quotes around that claim to be the transportation coordinator. And
17:03
Speaker 3: in a post shortly before August twelfth, twenty seventeen, on discord,
17:08
Speaker 3: the transportation coordinator for Unite the Right encouraged attendees that
17:13
Speaker 3: if they get bogged down in crowds of protesters, to
17:17
Speaker 3: just run them over. Paid for by the Southern Poverty
17:24
Speaker 3: Law Center, and they're now indicted for all this activity.
17:27
Speaker 3: And this is what brings President Trump to say, if
17:30
Speaker 3: it turns out to be true, the entire twenty twenty
17:32
Speaker 3: elections should be quote permanently wiped from the books. And
17:36
Speaker 3: of course I have Republicans, Oh my god, does it
17:40
Speaker 3: He's not saying Joe Biden should be. What we need
17:43
Speaker 3: to do is elections need to be tightened up. Who's
17:49
Speaker 3: voting in them could because remember we begin in twenty
17:54
Speaker 3: seventeen with the premise that these are the people that
17:57
Speaker 3: support Donald Trump. Why is that important because because that
18:00
Speaker 3: makes a percentage of the people who did support Donald
18:03
Speaker 3: Trump in twenty sixteen stop supporting Donald Trump by the
18:08
Speaker 3: end of twenty seventeen because they're like, well, those are
18:11
Speaker 3: Nazis and I'm not a Nazi, and I'm putting my
18:14
Speaker 3: red ball cowboy who was all a setup. If you
18:22
Speaker 3: can't find something in someone's character to assail, create something,
18:28
Speaker 3: or as the law enforcement professionals will tell you, if
18:31
Speaker 3: you can't get them to sing, maybe you can encourage
18:35
Speaker 3: them to compose. There was nobody to sing in the
18:38
Speaker 3: president's support set, so they got some people to compose,
18:43
Speaker 3: and there are dead bodies because of it. There are
18:45
Speaker 3: state troopers, families who never will see their helicopter pilot
18:50
Speaker 3: husbands ever again. Because the Southern Poverty Law Center is
19:01
Speaker 3: accused of trying to get people to compose. I love
19:05
Speaker 3: and growing up in New York City as I have,
19:08
Speaker 3: I think the New York Post has had perhaps it's
19:11
Speaker 3: salad days when it comes to headlines. I mean, in
19:15
Speaker 3: the eighties and the early nineties, it was getting like
19:17
Speaker 3: it was more competing with the National Inquirer. I mean,
19:21
Speaker 3: it's everything short of bat Boy was showing up on
19:24
Speaker 3: the front of the New York Post there for a while,
19:26
Speaker 3: but they really got their legs back under them, and
19:28
Speaker 3: in a way that I don't think they've been able
19:30
Speaker 3: to score with these headlines since the late seventies early eighties.
19:36
Speaker 3: I like this one was this Friday's paper. Hoodwink is
19:40
Speaker 3: the headline. I just gotta love the New York Post
19:44
Speaker 3: for headlines like Hoodwink. Anti hate group SPLC gave three
19:50
Speaker 3: million dollars to racists they claimed to fight. And that's
19:53
Speaker 3: the best part of the headline because there is it's
19:55
Speaker 3: not even an entire sentence long, and it is summed
19:59
Speaker 3: up exactly what Southern Poverty Law Center is done. And
20:02
Speaker 3: sure I will cop to the fact that on two
20:06
Speaker 3: separate occasions organizations that I am associated with have turned
20:10
Speaker 3: up on their hate group list. Hell, their activists went
20:18
Speaker 3: after my own radio show sponsors with photographs of me
20:23
Speaker 3: at the corner of Fourth and Market Street in Charlottesville
20:27
Speaker 3: where I was trying to cover the news story going
20:31
Speaker 3: after emailing them to my sponsors saying, look, Joe Thomas
20:35
Speaker 3: is a racist. Joe Thomas is a Nazi. We have photographs.
20:38
Speaker 3: This is him. He admits it's him. This is from
20:42
Speaker 3: his own Facebook page, and it was it was a
20:44
Speaker 3: post that I made. I think it was a screen
20:46
Speaker 3: cap of Fox News who went live from Charlottesville that day.
20:51
Speaker 3: I know this because in the middle of all of this,
20:54
Speaker 3: my sister called me. She said, what are you doing.
20:58
Speaker 3: I said, I'm in the middle of a riot, Jules,
21:01
Speaker 3: can you give me a few minutes? And she said no.
21:04
Speaker 3: Mom is watching TV and she's going crazy because all
21:08
Speaker 3: she sees is you amongst all these rioters. I said, well,
21:12
Speaker 3: tell Mom, I'm not with them, I'm covering them. She said,
21:16
Speaker 3: she knows that. She just wants you to get the
21:17
Speaker 3: hell out of there. And they took that screencap from
21:21
Speaker 3: my social media and started sending it to my sponsors. Luckily,
21:26
Speaker 3: I have the kind of relationship with the folks who
21:28
Speaker 3: sponsored this program that they don't buy that. But this
21:32
Speaker 3: is the character assassination. They don't need all of your
21:36
Speaker 3: supporters to leave. They just need little bits, and they'll
21:39
Speaker 3: come back for another little bit later, and they'll come
21:41
Speaker 3: back for another little bit later, and this builds the
21:44
Speaker 3: whole premise to the twenty twenty election. This is the
21:49
Speaker 3: first paving stone down on the path with the assistance
21:55
Speaker 3: of the WU FLU to the election front of twenty twenty.

22:07

22:13

22:15

22:18
Speaker 21: just be you moving your body and doing what you
22:20
Speaker 21: already love to do, like exercise. And a stronger heart
22:23
Speaker 21: doesn't just mean cardio, right, it means also infusing your
22:27

24:06
Speaker 9: few bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
24:12
Speaker 9: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
24:18
Speaker 9: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
24:22
Speaker 9: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
24:26
Speaker 9: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
24:31
Speaker 9: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
24:36
Speaker 9: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
24:42

28:12
Speaker 2: Hundred to do list. Putting the radio on is the
28:15
Speaker 2: first thing today.
28:18
Speaker 6: I was there too.
28:19
Speaker 4: I don't know what they said.
28:23
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. Not all of it though. So the
28:30
Speaker 3: European Union is stomping its feet saying it's back day
28:37
Speaker 3: and how long has it been? You know? And the
28:40
Speaker 3: European Union exists. My mother, for the second time, appears
28:45
Speaker 3: in today's program in context, was an international banker. She
28:49
Speaker 3: wrote letters of credit for all these countries, including Iran
28:54
Speaker 3: and China and other places that had sent stuff through
28:57
Speaker 3: the Strait of horror moves and stuff. I wish she
28:59
Speaker 3: was around, I mean inside the urn on my mantelpiece
29:03
Speaker 3: to give me some background on shipping like this. But
29:06
Speaker 3: this is what she did from the nineteen fifties on
29:09
Speaker 3: up first California female bank executive. But she was working
29:19
Speaker 3: for a German bank when the European Union was founded.
29:24
Speaker 3: I have somewhere in my collection one of the very
29:26
Speaker 3: first euros ever stamped. I think it's worth forty five
29:31
Speaker 3: cents wholesale. But that being said, I said to her
29:37
Speaker 3: at the time, because my mother would come down after
29:39
Speaker 3: the eleven o'clock news and start training me for what
29:43
Speaker 3: you and I do each morning or bayside Queens. She'd
29:46
Speaker 3: come down to the basement where I was watching a
29:49
Speaker 3: different eleven o'clock news than she watched, and she'd start
29:51
Speaker 3: to you like this stuff, don't you you're happy about this? Growl? Oh,
29:55
Speaker 3: she and I would probably have She did not like
29:58
Speaker 3: Donald Trump existentially, and this was well, she passed away
30:04
Speaker 3: during COVID, So yeah, she went through the twenty sixteen stuff.
30:08
Speaker 3: And like I said, she saw me on TV in
30:10
Speaker 3: twenty seventeen in the Charlottesville riots, and you know, we
30:14
Speaker 3: had our prickly moments over Donald Trump. She didn't like
30:19
Speaker 3: him from the seventies, but that's just you know, and
30:22
Speaker 3: I give her some gravitas for that. She didn't just
30:26
Speaker 3: like come to decide, she didn't like Donald Trump. She
30:28
Speaker 3: didn't like Donald Trump as an existential figure in the
30:31
Speaker 3: seventies and eighties of New York City. But I asked
30:38
Speaker 3: her when the European Union was founded. I said, ma,
30:41
Speaker 3: it kind of looks like they've built the whole thing
30:43
Speaker 3: off of the US Articles of Confederation. She said, well, yeah,
30:47
Speaker 3: they used that as some source material, as a template
30:51
Speaker 3: of a way to have sovereign nations kind of work altogether.
30:55
Speaker 3: I said, yet, you realize the Articles of Confederation failed
31:00
Speaker 3: miserably and not very and it didn't hang around very
31:03
Speaker 3: long either. It should Yeah, I think I think the
31:09
Speaker 3: Articles of Confederation what made it? Seven years and we're
31:16
Speaker 3: watching it. You know, Britain's out, you got Brexit. Never mind.
31:19
Speaker 3: I mean the fact that the European Union is holding
31:22
Speaker 3: itself economically together based on the prosperity of Germany and
31:27
Speaker 3: Ireland should tell you something. But there's Emmanuel Macrone stomping
31:33
Speaker 3: his feet saying, why are the European Union countries not
31:40
Speaker 3: playing a bigger role in all of this international intrigues?
31:45
Speaker 3: You know, President asked them, went to NATO and said,
31:48
Speaker 3: you guys want to help with the straight of four
31:50
Speaker 3: moves for all of his left wing looniness, Kirs Starmer
31:55
Speaker 3: or King King Charles, somebody said get over there. So
32:03
Speaker 3: the British are at least helping with the strait of
32:05
Speaker 3: horm moves. But e'repe stomping its feet, saying, why aren't
32:09
Speaker 3: you respecting our authority? Authority for what your Marxist countries
32:15
Speaker 3: continue to walk down a congo line of bankruptcy is
32:19
Speaker 3: going to get back through Greece, Portugal. Some of these
32:22
Speaker 3: places are just a mess being propped up by Germany
32:27
Speaker 3: and Ireland's prosperity. And Ireland is just the European Union's
32:35
Speaker 3: version of Silicon Valley. Just take the coffee shops out
32:38
Speaker 3: and add pubs. And really, I've seen some of the
32:42
Speaker 3: coffee they serve in these places in the Pacific Northwest.
32:45
Speaker 3: It looks like Guinness. It even has the head on it,
32:48
Speaker 3: So I mean, who would know, Hey, Barista, give me
32:54
Speaker 3: a pint of the dark stuff with the brown foamy head.
33:02
Speaker 3: But the European Union isn't being consulted in a lot
33:04
Speaker 3: of this stuff, because when it comes to China and
33:07
Speaker 3: the United States, the European Union is, if nothing else,
33:14
Speaker 3: the little guy next to the big burly brawler saying,
33:18
Speaker 3: what are we.
33:18
Speaker 6: Going to do now?
33:19
Speaker 23: Spike?
33:19
Speaker 3: What are we going to do now? What are you
33:20
Speaker 3: going to do now? Spike and they hate it when
33:27
Speaker 3: somebody like Donald Trump comes along and calls them out
33:30
Speaker 3: for it. But they, you know, all the bluster, They
33:35
Speaker 3: did pay more in to NATO to bring up their
33:39
Speaker 3: fair share, and they just announced one hundred and eight
33:46
Speaker 3: billion dollars in money for Ukraine a bailout. Gee. I
33:52
Speaker 3: wonder what if Ukraine wins. I wonder what Ukraine will
33:55
Speaker 3: have to do for that. I mean, I'm just call
34:00
Speaker 3: it conspiracy theory, call it pattern recognition, whatever you like.
34:04
Speaker 3: But what will the European Union have to do to
34:07
Speaker 3: pay off that loan? Hmmm? Because remember one of the
34:14
Speaker 3: sticking points is Ukraine's membership in the EU and NATO.
34:21
Speaker 3: Russia is not happy about the overtures of that. That really,
34:25
Speaker 3: I mean, for all of the chest pumping and shirtless
34:30
Speaker 3: riding through the Russian wilderness Vlad the Invader does, the
34:39
Speaker 3: whole point was he didn't need Ukraine creating a prosperous
34:43
Speaker 3: outpost full of Western style Marxism, doing gain of function
34:49
Speaker 3: research and surveillance technology and building drones right on their
34:56
Speaker 3: doorstep for the European Union. Plus, having been a Soviet country,
35:01
Speaker 3: they know a few things about how to get into
35:03
Speaker 3: the you know, and there's connections, and there's bridges and
35:05
Speaker 3: all these things that you know, Russia just didn't need
35:08
Speaker 3: to build more Checkpoint Charlie's around. And there's some some
35:13
Speaker 3: to the point that the European Union, when the Soviet
35:17
Speaker 3: Union fell, didn't know what to do with itself. I
35:19
Speaker 3: think Nigel Farage, who can be wrong about things just
35:23
Speaker 3: as much as you me and President Trump can, makes
35:27
Speaker 3: a great point about Putin's rise to power was really
35:30
Speaker 3: fueled by Europe's attitude towards Russia. Europe's attitude for Russia
35:37
Speaker 3: can be summed up in Eric Holder's you know, wonderful
35:40
Speaker 3: treaties on what to do with conservatives When they go low,
35:45
Speaker 3: we kick them. And I mean maybe there's you know,
35:51
Speaker 3: having missiles pointed at you for a long time might
35:54
Speaker 3: leave you with a little bit of the you know,
35:56
Speaker 3: a forgive and forget problem. Maybe they forgive, they don't
36:02
Speaker 3: forget so much. But I just think it's interesting to
36:06
Speaker 3: watch guys like Emmanuel Macron stomp their feet. And there
36:10
Speaker 3: were great things in France. I'm not i'd I wish
36:14
Speaker 3: the United States could pattern its nuclear energy generations after France.
36:19
Speaker 3: We wouldn't be in ninety percent of the problem. Maybe
36:22
Speaker 3: that's the reason we haven't let me get to you.
36:25
Speaker 3: On this Saturday morning at four three four eight eight
36:27
Speaker 3: two four two one seven, you're on the air with Joe.
36:30
Speaker 3: First thing this morning. Who's this?
36:32
Speaker 17: Good morning, Joe, it's Joel.
36:34
Speaker 3: Hey, Joel hows Arizona this morning?
36:37
Speaker 17: Good good? It's very dark still good and uh.
36:41
Speaker 3: Hey, you sound like George Carlin. Tonight's forecast man is
36:45
Speaker 3: dark followed by light starting early in the morning. Whatever.
36:50
Speaker 3: But anyway, what's on your mind?
36:53
Speaker 23: So if you take everything that you're talking about and
36:58
Speaker 23: what's going on in the world, I think there's a
37:01
Speaker 23: couple of vitamins that we need and one is called integrity.
37:05
Speaker 17: Integrity.
37:07
Speaker 3: I can see the bottle for that. It's Integra T.
37:10
Speaker 3: It's a dietary supplement that at all had Walgreens and
37:14
Speaker 3: CPS and.
37:17
Speaker 17: The you know it can be. It's got to be
37:20
Speaker 17: non gmo, organic and.
37:22
Speaker 3: All the other stuff.
37:23
Speaker 17: And then we also have to have good planning, you know, vitamin.
37:27
Speaker 23: P and and and so with integrity and good planning,
37:35
Speaker 23: you also have to have a creative mind in the
37:38
Speaker 23: sense that how am I going to approach these things?
37:41
Speaker 17: And stick to the plan.
37:42
Speaker 23: So I guess vitamin D determination too.
37:46
Speaker 17: So so with all.
37:48
Speaker 23: Those things, I think that people look at President Trump,
37:53
Speaker 23: They're like, man, why did he say that?
37:56
Speaker 17: Where is he going with this? Well?
37:58
Speaker 3: You know, and here's the thing, Joel, he said it
37:59
Speaker 3: because is it needed? Saye.
38:02
Speaker 9: In a study, it was found that thirty three percent
38:04
Speaker 9: of forty four herbal supplements had no trace of the

Speaker 14: Exercise is hard, so I was Maintaining a healthy diet.
41:03
Speaker 14: Of course, neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly,
41:07
Speaker 14: type two diabetes, heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a
41:11
Speaker 14: million people a year. Even sadder, most of these deaths
41:14
Speaker 14: are preventable with a few lifestyle changes, including regular activity,
41:19
Speaker 14: healthier eating, and not smoking. Talk to your doctor about
41:23
Speaker 14: your risk for type two diabetes and heart disease, and
41:26
Speaker 14: if your doctor recommends lifestyle changes or medication, listen. The
41:31
Speaker 14: reason so many die is because not enough are willing
41:34
Speaker 14: to change. You can stop it, starting right now. It's
41:38

44:20
Speaker 2: Putting the radio on is the first thing today.
44:30
Speaker 3: Not me them some allegory heres.
44:43
Speaker 6: Change my.
45:05
Speaker 3: I want to take a quick moment to thank our
45:07
Speaker 3: friends at the Jefferson Coinshop that's jcsgold dot com. They
45:13
Speaker 3: are one of the folks who support our efforts and
45:16
Speaker 3: you should go online there. And one of the reasons
45:19
Speaker 3: I say this is not just because they're a supporter
45:21
Speaker 3: of the program. They're the supporter of the program because
45:24
Speaker 3: I believe in what they do and why they do it.
45:27
Speaker 3: They're not out there with a commissioned sheet. They're not
45:29
Speaker 3: out there with a call sheet and a quota that
45:32
Speaker 3: they've got to make. They just want to help you
45:35
Speaker 3: do the good stuff when it comes to investing in
45:38
Speaker 3: gold and silver. Right now, gold is up seventeen dollars
45:42
Speaker 3: forty one cents. I know this because I went to
45:44
Speaker 3: their website, jcsgold dot com. They've got a price board there.
45:48
Speaker 3: You can buy right online, but you really need to
45:50
Speaker 3: talk to folks. Silver is up at seventy five dollars
45:54
Speaker 3: and seventy cents on the trading this morning. Joel was
45:59
Speaker 3: on the phone with us as we headed to break right.
46:03
Speaker 17: He's not distracted by alcohol or drugs.
46:06
Speaker 23: I mean, he loves his diet coke and he loves
46:09
Speaker 23: McDonald's and he's pretty.
46:12
Speaker 17: You know, a stude on that.
46:13
Speaker 23: And I know he's been trying to work with Maha,
46:16
Speaker 23: you know, trying to do some of the right things,
46:18
Speaker 23: and his medical reports and him pretty good, although you know,
46:21
Speaker 23: the Democrats want to put him in a different class.
46:24
Speaker 23: But the whole thing is he looks at if he
46:27
Speaker 23: comes to stop sign, he doesn't look at that stop
46:30
Speaker 23: sign just as a stop He looks at it.
46:32
Speaker 17: Four different ways, five different ways.
46:34
Speaker 23: And and so for when he supposedly lost the election,
46:39
Speaker 23: he wasn't just sitting back and moping.
46:42
Speaker 17: He had all his people.
46:43
Speaker 23: He had people that he was planning with. He had
46:46
Speaker 23: people come over I'm sure to mar A Lago. He
46:49
Speaker 23: had other people, you know, as economists. He's had people
46:53
Speaker 23: that were signed to all different kinds of lawyers.
46:56
Speaker 3: Well, that's that's where all this stuff. This is where
46:59
Speaker 3: the Act Blew case is going, because we haven't even
47:02
Speaker 3: brought up the Act Blue investigation, which is the money
47:05
Speaker 3: laundering scheme that I've been calling out for that for
47:08
Speaker 3: a decade. Joel, that you know, people give giant bags
47:12
Speaker 3: of George Sorows money to Act Blue and then they
47:15
Speaker 3: launder it and and then it doesn't look like you've
47:17
Speaker 3: given big bags of money to say some Virginia redistricting effort.
47:23
Speaker 23: Now that now the Democrats words in their dictionary their vitamins,
47:28
Speaker 23: which you know you shouldn't take because they can cause
47:30
Speaker 23: all kinds of a mental disease, you know.
47:34
Speaker 17: So so their words are retribution and and redistribution. Yeah, yeah, distribution.
47:44
Speaker 23: Well that that that was in the White House with
47:46
Speaker 23: that powder.
47:47
Speaker 3: That's not a vitamin.
47:50
Speaker 17: But no, I just think I.
47:53
Speaker 23: Just think that clarity doesn't come from just listening to U.
47:59
Speaker 23: You know, social media. It's a matter of listening to everybody,
48:03
Speaker 23: even it may one hurts even listen to the women
48:06
Speaker 23: on the view, but you got to go, man, what like.
48:10
Speaker 17: What egg did they hatch out it? And what what?
48:12
Speaker 17: You know, where were they dropped and what what? What?
48:15
Speaker 23: What doctors smacked them on their head? They when they
48:17
Speaker 23: weren't turning blue, they weren't cyanoutic. But they're just playing
48:20
Speaker 23: stupid or they're just plain ignorance.
48:23
Speaker 3: Well you know, and and part of it is is
48:24
Speaker 3: you want some of these folks and you realize that
48:27
Speaker 3: it's it's not it's willfulness to set aside intellect in
48:33
Speaker 3: exchange for commerce. So you know, we have and I've
48:37
Speaker 3: made the comparison Joel that if you call the headquarters
48:41
Speaker 3: of McDonald's and asks, you know, hey, we got an
48:43
Speaker 3: interview with the CEO of McDonald's, what's your favorite hamburger, sir?
48:47
Speaker 3: And you ask, you know, and then he says, gee,
48:49
Speaker 3: the Big Mac Joe, and you act surprised. And that's
48:54
Speaker 3: what these people are. They're all spokespeople. There isn't a
48:57
Speaker 3: person out there, present company excluded, that isn't out there
49:01
Speaker 3: pitching for someone. I mean, yeah, sure I have my sponsors,
49:04
Speaker 3: but politically I don't get a dime out of Republicans
49:07
Speaker 3: or Democrats or certainly not the Southern Poverty Law Center
49:12
Speaker 3: to say this stuff. But there are paid agitators amongst
49:16
Speaker 3: the media, and these are the people you need to
49:19
Speaker 3: look at and say, huh, why did that? You know,
49:22
Speaker 3: Fox News host all of a sudden become a blogger
49:26
Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden completely abandoned everything. And
49:29
Speaker 3: I imagine he's not sending Benjamin Nett and Yahoo get
49:32
Speaker 3: well card for his prom state cancer if you know
49:35
Speaker 3: who I mean, wink wink, Because there are people who
49:38
Speaker 3: pay for this. I mean, the obvious stuff are the
49:41
Speaker 3: pharmaceutical companies that sponsor the news programs. I was there when,
49:46
Speaker 3: you know the Department of Health and Human Services offered
49:49
Speaker 3: millions of dollars to Virginia TV and radio stations if
49:53
Speaker 3: they could come up with creative ways of convincing Virginians
49:58
Speaker 3: that they needed a Obamacare because healthcare equals health insurance,
50:04
Speaker 3: and we did it. I didn't do it, but I
50:07
Speaker 3: have a lot of my brothers and sisters did. So
50:09
Speaker 3: you have to realize that one of the dangers in
50:11
Speaker 3: the world of mass media right now is everyone is
50:15
Speaker 3: a spokesperson for someone else, and we don't get to
50:18
Speaker 3: see their little stickers on their firesuit like we do
50:21
Speaker 3: with a NASCAR pro driver. But that's what they're doing,
50:25
Speaker 3: and you know, it's either Trump or it's not Trump,
50:29
Speaker 3: or somebody's paying them to sit there and strike a pose.
50:35
Speaker 23: There's two people I really well, three people I think
50:38
Speaker 23: are really great. Well, a lot of people are good
50:41
Speaker 23: in government, but I think John Kennedy and John Fetterman,
50:44
Speaker 23: because you have John Kennedy on one side saying whatever
50:49
Speaker 23: he wants but with intellect and with common sense and
50:52
Speaker 23: intelligence and a lot of wit. And then John Fetterman,
50:56
Speaker 23: who had a stroke, who has been a staunch Democrat,
51:00
Speaker 23: but I think he's more of a conservative Republican. I mean,
51:03
Speaker 23: there's some things that.
51:05
Speaker 3: You know, there used to be conservative Democrats. People there
51:08
Speaker 3: used to be conservative Democrats, Joel, but they they don't.
51:12
Speaker 3: And then you got this woman in Florida. They no,
51:15
Speaker 3: not Florida's North krak ALACKI uh, this North Carolina state
51:19
Speaker 3: senator that quit the Democratic Party. You've got Republicans walking
51:24
Speaker 3: out the door. Great, I mean you'll walk out on
51:26
Speaker 3: parties because one of the problems we have in the
51:29
Speaker 3: world is that the parties have grown too powerful, and
51:32
Speaker 3: often they are the ones who are paying for, you know,
51:36
Speaker 3: the answers. You know that one's Burger King and one's McDonald's,
51:40
Speaker 3: and they're just at war. We need someone to show.
51:43
Speaker 3: We need Dave Thomas to show up and start Wendy's
51:51
Speaker 3: joel I lose them four three four eight eight two
51:54
Speaker 3: four two one seven. That is the phone number. You
51:57
