- 0:59Speaker 3: my friends in Indiana, 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. And
- 1:01Speaker 3: here in Ohio, bucking the trend, 6.30 a.m., 7.30 p.m.
- 1:04Speaker 3: Those are your polling hours. Please get out and vote, please.
- 1:09Speaker 3: Really worried about this. And looking at the campaign pledges
- 1:12Speaker 3: and promises from both sides of the political ledger, this
- 1:16Speaker 3: whole affordability thing is just driving me out of my mind.
- 1:20Speaker 3: The people I know, everybody's all upset about affordability. Who
- 1:23Speaker 3: can deny it? But, you know, politicians standing up there saying,
- 1:26Speaker 3: I'm going to solve the affordability problem. Can you tell
- 1:30Speaker 3: me exactly how? Because Donald Trump said the same thing
- 1:33Speaker 3: when he was campaigning for president. I don't think anything's changed. Anyway,
- 1:38Speaker 3: coming up with the 55KRC.
- 1:41Speaker 6: 513-749-5500.
- 1:41Speaker 3: 800-823-TALK. Pound 550 on AT & T phones. 55KRC. iheart. com. The
- 1:47Speaker 3: blog and podcast pages where you can listen to Eric
- 1:49Speaker 3: Conroy's final plea for your vote yesterday here on the
- 1:52Speaker 3: 55KRC Morning Show. Monday, Monday with Brian James. Keith Faber
- 1:55Speaker 3: also there on the podcast page. You can go back
- 1:57Speaker 3: to Monday with the Smith event. And I'm sure, well,
- 2:00Speaker 3: 44 people were arrested over the weekend, although you didn't
- 2:03Speaker 3: know that when you woke up on Monday morning because
- 2:04Speaker 3: there was no reporting on it. Finally, word got around
- 2:06Speaker 3: to the local mainstream media that, oh, well, you know,
- 2:09Speaker 3: there was a riot in downtown. Short Vine, yeah, and
- 2:13Speaker 3: officers were in fact beaten up and 44 people were
- 2:15Speaker 3: in fact arrested. Hey, how about that revelation? It's amazing
- 2:18Speaker 3: what a day and a half at a time and
- 2:21Speaker 3: Maybe bringing it to people's attention like Signal 99 did,
- 2:24Speaker 3: brought it to my attention. We've got video, police officers
- 2:27Speaker 3: being beaten up. Where are the references to that in
- 2:30Speaker 3: the local media? Silence. Finally got it late yesterday afternoon. Dr.
- 2:36Speaker 3: Jay Rissover, it is Tuesday, so we get the Empower
- 2:39Speaker 3: You seminars for the week. There's one tonight, and I think, well, actually,
- 2:42Speaker 3: there isn't one tonight, I believe. Thursday, and then we'll
- 2:44Speaker 3: get the ones for next week. That'll be at 7.05,
- 2:46Speaker 3: followed by Yes, Tom Zalastowski Returns. WeThePeopleConvention.org, Tom Zalastowski with
- 2:51Speaker 3: a final message. Conservatives, you've got to get out and vote.
- 2:56Speaker 3: You heard that message anymore? You know, since people in
- 2:58Speaker 3: the audience are going, geez, Louise, I can't wait until
- 3:01Speaker 3: the election's over. This is like political ad campaigning. Thomas
- 3:04Speaker 3: keeps telling people to vote. Zalastowski keeps telling people to vote.
- 3:07Speaker 3: Every politician that comes on this program telling people to vote.
- 3:10Speaker 3: I guess the message is we need to get out
- 3:12Speaker 3: and vote. What was that, Joe? Oh, yeah, well, if
- 3:19Speaker 3: the turnout wasn't 20%, as history has documented, good point.
- 3:24Speaker 3: It's supposed to be an off-cycle election. You know, Democrats
- 3:27Speaker 3: are supposed to guarantee a blue wave because Donald Trump's
- 3:29Speaker 3: the president, and this always happens. Does it? Does it
- 3:31Speaker 3: have to? What are the Democrats offering you? I know
- 3:35Speaker 3: what the El Sayeds of the world are offering you,
- 3:37Speaker 3: and look at what the Democrats have done. I mean,
- 3:41Speaker 3: Lord Almighty. You buck the Democrats in this left-wing craziness
- 3:48Speaker 3: that's going on here, they'll just come and crucify you.
- 3:55Speaker 3: Certainly going on with El-Sayed's campaign and Haley Stevens. Described
- 3:59Speaker 3: as being in exile, the Democrats, they will not tolerate.
- 4:02Speaker 3: You're not allowed to complain against a candidate like El-Sayed.
- 4:08Speaker 3: If you do, you are politically ostracized. Anyway, I was
- 4:20Speaker 3: looking at the, and you can find these anywhere. What
- 4:24Speaker 3: can you vote on today? What is being voted on today?
- 4:26Speaker 3: What's on the ballot? Of course, we've got 11 school
- 4:29Speaker 3: levies right here in the greater Cincinnati area. A lot
- 4:33Speaker 3: of them. Some are property tax levies. Some are operating levies,
- 4:36Speaker 3: earned income tax levies. 11 different school districts. So in
- 4:41Speaker 3: terms of earned income tax levy, Everybody who's working pays, Fairfield, Franklin, Lebanon,
- 4:47Speaker 3: North College Hill, Northwest, and Southwest local schools. Property tax
- 4:51Speaker 3: levies coming at you from Cincinnati Public Schools. It's a
- 4:54Speaker 3: big one. Sycamore Community Schools. Thanks, Dad. Wynwood City Schools.
- 5:02Speaker 3: And then one unusual one, the Bethel-Tate local schools trying
- 5:07Speaker 3: to extend their fixed sum operating levy. Lakota schools seeking
- 5:12Speaker 3: a bond issue. So a variety of different levies. Does
- 5:15Speaker 3: your school district need the money? What's it going to
- 5:17Speaker 3: be spent on? What are they promising? Worthy considerations. Considering
- 5:22Speaker 3: everybody's belt had to tighten up a notch or two, right? Because,
- 5:25Speaker 3: oh my God, affordability. Can I afford another levy? And
- 5:28Speaker 3: what is my school district doing with the money? Legitimate questions.
- 5:35Speaker 3: But pivoting over and, you know, Swirling question marks about
- 5:39Speaker 3: John Husted not coming on the 55KRC Morning Show to
- 5:42Speaker 3: spread the message about his campaign against Sherrod Brown. And,
- 5:45Speaker 3: you know, this is one of the ones I've practically
- 5:47Speaker 3: written off. Sherrod Brown, he's certainly got name recognition, but
- 5:51Speaker 3: what the hell is he running on? Husted, domestic energy
- 5:58Speaker 3: investment and production. You see, if you go that route,
- 6:01Speaker 3: you can ultimately achieve some measure of affordability or at
- 6:04Speaker 3: least control over the radically varying price of fossil fuels
- 6:08Speaker 3: and other energy-producing items, right? Increasing it. Supply and demand.
- 6:12Speaker 3: There's a good economic policy. Tax relief. Lower the cost
- 6:16Speaker 3: of living by providing tax relief. Expanding child tax credit. Houston,
- 6:20Speaker 3: these are his ideas. Of course, supporting and increasing funding
- 6:24Speaker 3: for law enforcement. Technological innovation. Maintaining strong trade partnerships, but
- 6:29Speaker 3: also blocking unfair importing practices. So that's a shot at tariffs. Fine,
- 6:33Speaker 3: but what is Sherrod Brown offering? Hold health insurance companies
- 6:38Speaker 3: accountable by fining them if they deny patients the care
- 6:41Speaker 3: they need. Well, is or does, rather, your health insurance
- 6:49Speaker 3: policy guarantee coverage? It's a contract. It's limited. Now, bad
- 6:54Speaker 3: faith denial or just absolute refusal to denial as a
- 6:57Speaker 3: default position. Talk to Eric Conroy about that. He's against it.
- 7:00Speaker 3: I'm against it. I work for a health insurance company.
- 7:02Speaker 3: But the contract is finite. If you're going to go
- 7:05Speaker 3: out and get breast enlargement or butt enlargement surgery, it's
- 7:08Speaker 3: not covered. It's cosmetic. So there are proper denials and
- 7:12Speaker 3: just broad breath just saying, oh, we're going to hold
- 7:15Speaker 3: them accountable. We're going to fine them. I don't know
- 7:18Speaker 3: that that's a recipe for lowering the cost of medicine.
- 7:20Speaker 3: In any event, lowering prescription drug costs through legislation. Okay. Okay.
- 7:29Speaker 3: requiring data centers to pay their own energy costs and
- 7:32Speaker 3: cutting tax incentives. That is a position shared by Vivek Ramaswamy.
- 7:36Speaker 3: I think Houston shares that. Pretty much everybody is embracing
- 7:39Speaker 3: the concept of not saying no to data centers, but
- 7:42Speaker 3: at least requiring them to cover the cost of their
- 7:45Speaker 3: own business, which I have no problem with. And here
- 7:48Speaker 3: we finally get to capping utility rate increases through legislation.
- 7:52Speaker 3: Is this price fixing, Sherrod Brown? And wait a second.
- 7:57Speaker 3: utility rate increases, what might have driven that? So I
- 8:02Speaker 3: would argue, as so many others have, and I've been
- 8:04Speaker 3: pointing this out for a long time, why are utility
- 8:07Speaker 3: rates increasing? Perhaps because of these mandates, edicts of green
- 8:12Speaker 3: energy policies and practices. Yeah, there's that. So your legislation,
- 8:20Speaker 3: your desires by way of legislation, you're being wed, Mr.
- 8:24Speaker 3: Sherrod Brown, to green energy policies. legislatively force the price
- 8:29Speaker 3: of energy up, and it will continue to do so.
- 8:32Speaker 3: Your response? To respond with legislation to cap the rate increases,
- 8:36Speaker 3: which I don't know where that ends. The place is
- 8:39Speaker 3: a utility company. I think it would be in an
- 8:42Speaker 3: unenviable position from a business model perspective. But anyway, pivoting
- 8:47Speaker 3: over to some observation by J.T. Young, climate change suffers
- 8:52Speaker 3: rude collision with reality. Fast forward into the comments, Democrats'
- 8:56Speaker 3: climate change agenda taking a step back more than it
- 9:01Speaker 3: has in years as this year's increase in oil and
- 9:04Speaker 3: gas prices take hold. What happened to climate policy? Obviously,
- 9:10Speaker 3: oil and gas increases have a broad economic impact. Every
- 9:14Speaker 3: time everybody fills their tank or pays their energy bill,
- 9:17Speaker 3: there is a reminder there how much more expensive it's gotten.
- 9:20Speaker 3: Although short attention span theater, we forget that the price
- 9:22Speaker 3: of gasoline and diesel fuel was a lot higher under
- 9:25Speaker 3: Joe Biden, again, as a consequence of legislative actions. But
- 9:31Speaker 3: the Democrats are running the opposite direction, are hoping you
- 9:33Speaker 3: forget this. It's natural, therefore, because it's all around all
- 9:40Speaker 3: of us, the Democrats would seize on these increases, these increases.
- 9:43Speaker 3: dovetailed with and accentuated their quote-unquote affordability message, which all
- 9:48Speaker 3: of them are echoing. Affordability, affordability, affordability. They also could
- 9:53Speaker 3: be directly tied to the conflict in Iran. Of course
- 9:55Speaker 3: they're going to make that point. As soon as the
- 9:56Speaker 3: bombs started dropping, straight-up Hormuz shuts down, and global energy
- 10:00Speaker 3: prices are rocked.
- 10:00Speaker 7: Yes.
- 10:02Speaker 3: And it's distracted attention from the fact that inflation, and
- 10:06Speaker 3: with it affordability, was an issue throughout Biden's four years
- 10:09Speaker 3: in office. After all, that's why the Inflation Reduction Act
- 10:12Speaker 3: was affixed to the legislation that was all about green
- 10:15Speaker 3: energy projects, which, of course, Democrats regret because it's a
- 10:18Speaker 3: constant reminder. They told you the Inflation Reduction Act would
- 10:22Speaker 3: reduce inflation. It was their brain shot. It was their
- 10:25Speaker 3: green energy policy. You got it, and what did you
- 10:27Speaker 3: get in return for it? Inflation, with all the additional
- 10:30Speaker 3: trillions of dollars that were thrown into the economy. Anyhow,
- 10:35Speaker 3: in short, increased oil and gas prices meant political opportunity,
- 10:39Speaker 3: and Democrats have taken full advantage because you're not remembering.
- 10:42Speaker 3: Overlooked in what seemed to be so straightforward is that
- 10:45Speaker 3: today's increased oil and gas prices fulfill... Democrats' underlying climate
- 10:51Speaker 3: change policy goals, higher prices, reduced demand, using less fossil fuels,
- 10:55Speaker 3: exactly what Democrats' climate change agenda sought. Or at least
- 10:58Speaker 3: it did until this increase in prices. Oh, this is
- 11:03Speaker 3: evil orange man's increase. And even though it fulfills our
- 11:07Speaker 3: ultimate goals of raising the price of gas and oil
- 11:10Speaker 3: so you don't use it, We're still going to take
- 11:13Speaker 3: credit and go after evil orange man and blame him
- 11:16Speaker 3: for the increases until, of course, we get back in
- 11:18Speaker 3: office and then we continue with the increases. The liberal
- 11:23Speaker 3: tax policy center noted the time that the Inflation Reduction
- 11:27Speaker 3: Act failed to live up to its climate change potential.
- 11:30Speaker 3: Writing the generous tax credits, the TPC noted, by contrast,
- 11:35Speaker 3: a carbon tax is designed to achieve only one goal,
- 11:40Speaker 3: raise the price of carbon. There are many ways the
- 11:43Speaker 3: tax can be returned to the households, but in any event,
- 11:45Speaker 3: the tax still would discourage consumption of carbon-based products by
- 11:50Speaker 3: raising their relative prices.
- 11:52Speaker 8: Right.
- 11:53Speaker 3: That's what they wanted. And they got it. The article
- 12:01Speaker 3: reminds you Democrats have backed all manner of ways to
- 12:03Speaker 3: restrict the use of fossil fuels to promote green alternatives.
- 12:06Speaker 3: The California ZEV mandate, myriad policies in the Inflation Reduction Act,
- 12:10Speaker 3: restricting U.S. production of oil and gas, opposing fracking, stifling
- 12:14Speaker 3: pipeline development, onerous CAFE requirements, EV incentives, and the list
- 12:18Speaker 3: goes on and on. Right. This is all their ideas,
- 12:23Speaker 3: the left ideas. Including thoughts, climate change increasingly suffering from
- 12:32Speaker 3: its rude collision with reality. The European Union, where the
- 12:37Speaker 3: climate change agenda is treated as gospel, and its resulting
- 12:41Speaker 3: stagnant economy have heard, but nothing has had such a
- 12:44Speaker 3: chilling effect in America as the opportunity to make a
- 12:47Speaker 3: political issue out of increased oil and gas prices. Given
- 12:51Speaker 3: the choice between policy and politics, there is no choice
- 12:55Speaker 3: at all. Ironically, even when an outcome advances the policy
- 12:59Speaker 3: and the politics Democrats so recently claimed to champion.
- 13:04Speaker 8: Right.
- 13:06Speaker 3: Wake up. 518-55-KRC-D Talk Station. Don't go away. Be right back.
- 13:11Speaker 1: Have you heard the news? A Learjet crashes.
- 13:18Speaker 3: That's 522 Election Day. Get out and vote. And please,
- 13:24Speaker 3: listen to lunch at Anderson Pub and Grill tomorrow. Really, really,
- 13:28Speaker 3: really would love for you to be there and celebrate.
- 13:31Speaker 3: Hopefully there will be something to celebrate tomorrow, dear God.
- 13:34Speaker 3: I'm primarily worried about if there is little to celebrate tomorrow.
- 13:37Speaker 3: I think the Republicans are going to lose all of them. But,
- 13:39Speaker 3: you know, if you believe the gloom and doom polling,
- 13:42Speaker 3: and I have done my best to stay the hell
- 13:43Speaker 3: away from polling. I mean, I know I've seen it.
- 13:46Speaker 3: I've read it. I know what they currently say. I've
- 13:48Speaker 3: seen how close the races are, at least according to
- 13:50Speaker 3: the polling. But then again, it's always tempered by they've
- 13:53Speaker 3: gotten it so wrong over the past several election cycles.
- 13:57Speaker 3: And the dynamics of polling have changed so much that
- 13:59Speaker 3: the pollsters really haven't caught up to the whole idea
- 14:01Speaker 3: that A lot of my conservative-leaning friends just don't participate
- 14:05Speaker 3: in polls. Now, whether they actually go out and vote,
- 14:08Speaker 3: this is where you've got to put your money where
- 14:09Speaker 3: your mouth is. Sure, you don't take a poll. Sure,
- 14:11Speaker 3: you're inclined to vote for a Republican, but are you
- 14:13Speaker 3: a likely voter? Well, let's make it this year the
- 14:16Speaker 3: year of not likely voters being voters. Period. End of story.
- 14:19Speaker 9: Voters.
- 14:21Speaker 3: But stayed away from it, so at least insofar as
- 14:24Speaker 3: Listener Lunch goes, I'm prepared to, well, feel depressed, down.
- 14:33Speaker 3: Admittedly so, if it happens. So I'd really love some
- 14:36Speaker 3: company tomorrow. Let us enjoy or at least struggle together
- 14:44Speaker 3: in our losses. We are together, and I think that's
- 14:46Speaker 3: ultimately the point, fellowship. And if somebody can straight it
- 14:49Speaker 3: out before the Daniel Davis deep dive at 830, retired
- 14:51Speaker 3: Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis giving us a military analysis on Iran.
- 14:56Speaker 3: So I've got conflicting headlines and information going on. So
- 15:00Speaker 3: most recently, we did launch what we call a defensive
- 15:03Speaker 3: strike on Iran's Qeshm Island. This was just yesterday. It
- 15:07Speaker 3: was confirmed that the strike was carried out in response
- 15:09Speaker 3: to Iran firing at a U.S.
- 15:12Speaker 2: Aircraft.
- 15:14Speaker 3: And the strike was called defensive. So we can't get
- 15:18Speaker 3: blamed for a first strike. They started it. We're just
- 15:21Speaker 3: going to respond. And I guess I understand that. Apparently,
- 15:24Speaker 3: this Qeshm Island honed to underground missile sites, a naval base,
- 15:27Speaker 3: and a major desalination plant. Don't know what was hit.
- 15:32Speaker 3: There's no reporting, at least accurate, that I've seen this
- 15:34Speaker 3: morning on what was hit. But then when we have this,
- 15:38Speaker 3: the renewed Iran deal framework emerging, this after a meeting
- 15:42Speaker 3: in Tehran with Qatari mediators, positive talks. Donald Trump in
- 15:47Speaker 3: an ex-post yesterday, Truth Social Media rather, Oil prices are
- 15:50Speaker 3: dropping like a rock, down almost $ 10 a barrel, a record,
- 15:53Speaker 3: because people feel that there will not be a war
- 15:56Speaker 3: with Iran. Iran wants a settlement as soon as possible.
- 15:59Speaker 3: It could happen, President Donald Trump. He told reporters yesterday
- 16:03Speaker 3: that Iran wants to make a deal and that it
- 16:05Speaker 3: could happen. I know you've heard that before. I certainly
- 16:09Speaker 3: have heard it before. So you've got the promise of
- 16:12Speaker 3: no war, or at least the suggestion that there is
- 16:14Speaker 3: not going to be one, but then again, you have
- 16:16Speaker 3: the strike on Kashim Island. But also... Donald Trump's threat
- 16:21Speaker 3: that we can drop bombs in a moment's time or
- 16:23Speaker 3: within an hour, specifically in reference to pickaxe mountain, which
- 16:26Speaker 3: is believed to be where the nuclear material is. He said,
- 16:29Speaker 3: we bombed out with midnight hammer. We bobbed out all
- 16:31Speaker 3: the potential nuclear power. Now we might have to go
- 16:34Speaker 3: after pickaxe. That's not a big deal. We can do it.
- 16:38Speaker 3: And literally we can do it in one hour. Again,
- 16:42Speaker 3: I'm going to have to go back to Daniel Davis
- 16:44Speaker 3: on that because he is of the mind. And I
- 16:46Speaker 3: kind of think I'm with him on being of the
- 16:48Speaker 3: mind that, We don't have a missile or a bomb
- 16:52Speaker 3: that's capable of penetrating the hundreds of feet of rock
- 16:55Speaker 3: that get down to whatever's down there. And the Moab,
- 16:59Speaker 3: the mother of all bombs, can't do it, at least
- 17:01Speaker 3: from everything I've heard. So can we really do it?
- 17:05Speaker 3: Are we going to do it? You've got one side saying, look,
- 17:07Speaker 3: we're going to drop bombs maybe effectively in an hour.
- 17:10Speaker 3: The other one saying, well, it looks like there's going
- 17:11Speaker 3: to be a deal. There's not going to be a
- 17:13Speaker 3: war at all. I guess the truth and reality maybe
- 17:17Speaker 3: lies in the middle somewhere. Feel free to give me
- 17:18Speaker 3: a call if you can figure it out. I'll be
- 17:21Speaker 3: right back with local stories. 55KRC. com Happy Election Day. Half
- 17:31Speaker 3: hour from the polls opening in Kentucky and Indiana. Polls
- 17:35Speaker 3: open in Ohio one hour from now. And I hope
- 17:37Speaker 3: everybody's lined up around the corner. And I really hope
- 17:38Speaker 3: you call me up to tell me how the polls
- 17:40Speaker 3: are doing. whether they're crowded or not, and whether the
- 17:43Speaker 3: lines are long or not, how you feel about it.
- 17:45Speaker 3: So welcome phone calls on Election Day. And, of course,
- 17:48Speaker 3: tomorrow it's election coverage morning. And we'll review the results
- 17:54Speaker 3: together clearly. And Mike Wilson of Tea Party fame. Remember
- 17:59Speaker 3: the Tea Party? He's not optimistic at all. He's got
- 18:01Speaker 3: a post on Facebook. He's got gloom and doom prediction.
- 18:04Speaker 3: He's got Jared Brown winning, Amy Acton winning. Democrats winning
- 18:09Speaker 3: 20 to 25 House seats. Senate believes it's too close
- 18:13Speaker 3: to call and concludes with, I don't think I'll be
- 18:17Speaker 3: happy with the outcome. That's a gloom and doom projection.
- 18:23Speaker 3: How do you feel? 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK. Doesn't have to go
- 18:30Speaker 3: down that way. Multiple people arrested over the holiday weekend
- 18:33Speaker 3: in connection with the incidents ranging from deadly shooting to
- 18:36Speaker 3: disorderly crowds. Oh, thank you, WCPO, for chiming in on
- 18:40Speaker 3: the topic we were talking about yesterday. Cincinnati Police detailed
- 18:43Speaker 3: the responses to the violent crimes and large disorderly crowds
- 18:49Speaker 3: taking place over a couple-hour span over the weekend. In total,
- 18:53Speaker 3: Cincinnati Police say 44 arrests were made citywide between Saturday
- 18:58Speaker 3: and Sunday. Hey, Joe, do we have a crime problem
- 19:00Speaker 3: in the city area?
- 19:02Speaker 10: No.
- 19:03Speaker 3: I heard that from our mayor. I have to have
- 19:05Speaker 3: pro ball. So we had a fight at a 2,800
- 19:09Speaker 3: block of Short Vine, 10 minutes till midnight. Police say someone, quote, unquote,
- 19:13Speaker 3: interfered with police efforts to break it up. So there
- 19:16Speaker 3: was a taser deployment as well as an arrest. That
- 19:18Speaker 3: suspect charged with obstructing official business. While responding to crowds
- 19:24Speaker 3: near downtown, shortly after midnight, officers heard gunshots from inside
- 19:28Speaker 3: the nightclub on East 7th Street, where, since I police
- 19:32Speaker 3: say a person was found seriously hurt with a gunshot wound,
- 19:34Speaker 3: person taken to UC Medical Center, they died at UC
- 19:37Speaker 3: Medical Center. Homicide investigators are looking into that ongoing investigation.
- 19:44Speaker 3: Officers responded with assault that took place near Vine Street.
- 19:47Speaker 3: Police say chemical irritants were used to intervene. in the attack.
- 19:51Speaker 3: Pepper spray, victim taken so their non-life-threatening injuries could be treated.
- 19:54Speaker 3: Police say the suspects, in connection with that incident, fled
- 19:57Speaker 3: the scene. Minutes later, fireworks display in the parking lot
- 20:02Speaker 3: of West Corey Street, spotted by officers. They showed up there.
- 20:05Speaker 3: A person refused lawful commands, began to reach inside a
- 20:08Speaker 3: vehicle and Officers used a taser and then took that
- 20:12Speaker 3: person into custody. Firearm found outside the vehicle, according to
- 20:15Speaker 3: the Cincinnati Police. Suspect charged with resisting and carrying a
- 20:18Speaker 3: concealed weapon. Officers arrived at another disorderly crowd. This one
- 20:25Speaker 3: near Jefferson Avenue, 1.30 in the morning roughly. Officers assaulted
- 20:28Speaker 3: while they were detaining another suspect. Taser deployed in that
- 20:31Speaker 3: one as well, leading to a suspect being arrested. Officers
- 20:34Speaker 3: sent to the hospital for treatment. The other treated at
- 20:36Speaker 3: the scene. That's the one that Signal 99 posted the
- 20:38Speaker 3: video of, if I recall correctly. Police said that officers
- 20:42Speaker 3: responded to another large crowd only minutes later. More than
- 20:45Speaker 3: 2,000 people formed near West Corey Street, prompting officers to
- 20:49Speaker 3: begin crowd dispersal efforts, which resulted in multiple arrests and
- 20:53Speaker 3: even more taser deployments. Same time, officers handled stabbing involving
- 20:59Speaker 3: someone who suffered non-life-threatening injuries and a separate shooting investigation
- 21:02Speaker 3: involving a victim who arrived at the hospital with life-threatening injuries.
- 21:07Speaker 11: Oh, look!
- 21:08Speaker 3: Mayor Aftab Perval made a statement yesterday. Are you ready?
- 21:14Speaker 3: First things first. We're extremely grateful to the officers for
- 21:18Speaker 3: the sacrifices they made to keep people safe during an
- 21:20Speaker 3: especially challenging weekend. You know what? Props to Perval for
- 21:24Speaker 3: recognizing the officers and their hard work. You rarely see that,
- 21:28Speaker 3: don't you? I'm praying for a speedy recovery. If you
- 21:33Speaker 3: assault an officer, you're going to be held to account
- 21:36Speaker 3: to the fullest extent of the law. I'll believe it
- 21:39Speaker 3: when I see it, Mayor. There is no excuse. It
- 21:42Speaker 3: was very difficult. Halloween in Cincinnati and cities around the country.
- 21:46Speaker 3: We're not the only ones. Cities around the country. Anyway,
- 21:48Speaker 3: the violence and disorder some of our communities face was
- 21:51Speaker 3: not acceptable, and we will be pursuing all necessary responses.
- 21:55Speaker 3: Him and the mouse in his pocket. Let me ask
- 21:59Speaker 3: you this. Considering we are going to be voting on
- 22:02Speaker 3: judges here in Hamilton County, if Mayor Aftab Perval joins
- 22:05Speaker 3: with the police, the police do their law enforcement work,
- 22:07Speaker 3: they find the bad guys, they arrest them, and they
- 22:10Speaker 3: process them. Hamilton County prosecutors decide that they are going
- 22:12Speaker 3: to go all in to prosecute these people who were arrested,
- 22:16Speaker 3: and they end up in front of, I don't know,
- 22:18Speaker 3: Judge Silverstein. And that's when the wheels fall off of
- 22:22Speaker 3: strict law enforcement. Since I police issued a statement. The
- 22:27Speaker 3: Sunset Police Department will not tolerate assaults on our officers.
- 22:30Speaker 3: Any individual who chooses to attack, interfere with, or obstruct
- 22:33Speaker 3: officers performing their lawful duties will be held accountable. The
- 22:36Speaker 3: department will legalize every available investigative enforcement and prosecutorial resource
- 22:41Speaker 3: to ensure offenders are identified, arrested, and brought to justice. Yes,
- 22:45Speaker 3: I'm sure they will. Like they have been. It's the
- 22:53Speaker 3: follow-up that's always been the problem here in Hamilton County. 5.35,
- 22:57Speaker 3: 55 KRC Talk Station. Corey, I promise to take your
- 23:00Speaker 3: call as soon as we return after these brief words
- 23:03Speaker 3: and then get to the stack of stupid.
- 23:05Speaker 12: This is 55 KRC Talk Station.
- 23:10Speaker 3: It is 5.39 on election day. Get out and vote. Yeah,
- 23:13Speaker 3: you're going to get tired of it. I know you're
- 23:15Speaker 3: already tired of it. I'm tired of political ad campaigns.
- 23:17Speaker 2: I am.
- 23:18Speaker 3: I mean, I hope to God my text messages end
- 23:20Speaker 3: after today. Some people have been able to avoid it.
- 23:24Speaker 3: I get like. 12 different political-related text messages every single day.
- 23:29Speaker 3: You know, spam, spam, spam. Anyway, let's see what Corey's got. Corey,
- 23:31Speaker 3: thanks for holding over the break. Welcome to the morning show.
- 23:33Speaker 3: Happy Tuesday, Election Day.
- 23:35Speaker 10: Happy Tuesday, Brian.
- 23:38Speaker 5: I am not optimistic about what's going to happen today.
- 23:41Speaker 5: I think the Republicans' messaging at the state level has
- 23:45Speaker 5: been terrible. I know I said before, yeah, Sharon Brown billboards,
- 23:49Speaker 5: I'm down I-75 around Finley to Toledo. East and West
- 23:55Speaker 5: from Chicago all the way to Indiana.
- 23:58Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 23:59Speaker 5: Everything's talking about affordability, affordability, affordability on the Democrat side.
- 24:03Speaker 3: I know.
- 24:05Speaker 5: Not a single billboard about John Husted. The only thing
- 24:08Speaker 5: you see about John Husted is the first energy scandal.
- 24:12Speaker 5: And I think it's going to, I think Brown's going
- 24:16Speaker 5: to win.
- 24:16Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 24:17Speaker 5: And I think, unfortunately, I think because of that, and
- 24:21Speaker 5: the acting is going to win too is, They're kind
- 24:24Speaker 5: of just, uh, I think that people are just tired
- 24:28Speaker 5: of it. Uh, locally, uh, like, uh, personally, my electric
- 24:32Speaker 5: bills doubled and at the same time, property tax has
- 24:36Speaker 5: increased and it's, it's taken this tool and the Republicans
- 24:40Speaker 5: messaging has, has been silent on it. And then at
- 24:43Speaker 5: a national level, I was just left the gas station
- 24:46Speaker 5: a few minutes ago and people were talking about all
- 24:49Speaker 5: politicians are liars. And, uh, Because, one, Trump promised no
- 24:55Speaker 5: new wars, and here we are in Iran, which is
- 24:57Speaker 5: leading to a lot of the issues. And then also,
- 25:00Speaker 5: like you said, the affordability issue.
- 25:01Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a whole lot. I mean, people can be
- 25:04Speaker 3: angry about Trump. And, of course, the message, evil orange man,
- 25:07Speaker 3: as I like to summarize this anger and vitriol toward
- 25:10Speaker 3: Donald Trump, which has gone on for 10 years, that's
- 25:12Speaker 3: well established and set in. I mean, I even know
- 25:14Speaker 3: conservatives who've got Trump derangement syndrome. But this isn't a
- 25:18Speaker 3: Trump race. I mean, can someone deal with affordability? Can
- 25:22Speaker 3: any politician change and make things more affordable right out
- 25:26Speaker 3: of the gate?
- 25:28Speaker 9: No.
- 25:28Speaker 3: Trump promised it, and he's been getting away and doing
- 25:31Speaker 3: a lot. He's accomplished a whole lot. The economy is
- 25:33Speaker 3: still going really strong, but we can't deal with the
- 25:35Speaker 3: affordability issue through legislation or anything else, it appears. It's
- 25:40Speaker 3: just economics, which you can't overcome with a politician. And
- 25:44Speaker 3: I understand the frustration. I mean, I don't like paying
- 25:46Speaker 3: more for everything, but I'm trying to be practical on
- 25:49Speaker 3: where the solutions are. And I don't see any Democrats
- 25:51Speaker 3: offering anything but I promise to make things more affordable,
- 25:54Speaker 3: which is a hollow, empty promise. I want to hear
- 25:57Speaker 3: by people believe it. I see. And therein lies the problem, Corey.
- 26:02Speaker 3: A lot of people believe it.
- 26:02Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 26:04Speaker 5: Not everybody, not everybody's a political junkies like we are.
- 26:08Speaker 5: And most people can't tell you what's going on day
- 26:10Speaker 5: to day, but they can tell you all the lyrics
- 26:12Speaker 5: to whatever latest pop song is. But, uh, it's, it's,
- 26:17Speaker 5: it's very, very sad, you know?
- 26:19Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 26:19Speaker 5: Well, and I, and I tell, I tell people, uh,
- 26:22Speaker 5: you know, my grandfather fought in the war and my
- 26:24Speaker 5: brother fought over in the golf and, you know, and
- 26:28Speaker 5: for what, for this country to, to go down the tube.
- 26:32Speaker 5: And it's a very sad.
- 26:35Speaker 3: And that reality that you're experiencing right now and your perception,
- 26:40Speaker 3: I think, is really a product in large part of
- 26:43Speaker 3: the campaign against all things American, American unity. We've been
- 26:48Speaker 3: hearing this for constantly, social media. We've got all kinds of,
- 26:51Speaker 3: I would argue, evil forces out there trying to convince
- 26:54Speaker 3: you that is exactly where we are. We are gone.
- 26:56Speaker 3: It's too late to fix it. The part of the
- 26:58Speaker 3: country is... divided irreconcilably so it's not worth it bring
- 27:04Speaker 3: the flag out last person out we need to start
- 27:06Speaker 3: over and do something else that's exactly what the left
- 27:09Speaker 3: wants i keep going back to at least the flag
- 27:12Speaker 3: used to stand for freedom and liberty under which all
- 27:15Speaker 3: of us stand this is the one country where you
- 27:18Speaker 3: can do that you know you look at france and
- 27:22Speaker 3: that place is just a a bonfire the promises of
- 27:26Speaker 3: socialism collapse before their very eyes, and with all these
- 27:29Speaker 3: outside external forces, this replacement population that the French government
- 27:35Speaker 3: is going to argue you're not even allowed to make
- 27:38Speaker 3: an argument over. No, we will have no illegal to
- 27:42Speaker 3: discuss replacement population. Yeah, this great substitution that's going on. That, well,
- 27:51Speaker 3: evil orange man at least stopped in our country. Your
- 27:57Speaker 3: thoughts and comments are welcome, and I hope, Corey, that
- 27:58Speaker 3: does not mean your feeling right now does not mean
- 28:01Speaker 3: you will not go out and vote and at least
- 28:03Speaker 3: try to stop it from happening because it's not a
- 28:05Speaker 3: foregone conclusion. There's a horrific stack of stupid story getting
- 28:12Speaker 3: away from that. See if you can chuckle over this
- 28:14Speaker 3: one or cringe, my men friends out there. Biological men.
- 28:20Speaker 3: Indiana man who severed his penis and then allegedly set
- 28:24Speaker 3: it on fire in his family's garage. Garage has been
- 28:27Speaker 3: judged competent to stand trial for arson. Why are you
- 28:32Speaker 3: doing that?
- 28:32Speaker 12: I don't know.
- 28:33Speaker 3: They'll never find out. This new decision from the judge
- 28:36Speaker 3: sets a May 2027 trial date for Christopher Pedden, who's 36.
- 28:41Speaker 3: After a competency hearing, July 29th court appearance came after
- 28:46Speaker 3: Pedden recently underwent separate court-ordered evaluations conducted by a pair
- 28:49Speaker 3: of psychologists, doctors appointed to examine him. after the judge
- 28:53Speaker 3: granted a defense motion to determine his competency and insanity.
- 28:58Speaker 3: Competency reports authored by Dr. David Lombard and Dr. Stephen Ross,
- 29:03Speaker 3: not part of the public court file, but Pennon, who's
- 29:05Speaker 3: free on a $ 10, 000 bond, was arrested for allegedly setting
- 29:08Speaker 3: a 2 o'clock in the morning fire at a Fort
- 29:09Speaker 3: Wayne residence owned by his mom. Detailed in the court affidavit,
- 29:17Speaker 3: Sworn by a fire investigator, Pendon, quote, harmed himself with
- 29:20Speaker 3: a kitchen knife cutting off his penis, close quote. He then, quote,
- 29:24Speaker 3: poured gasoline on his penis and set it on fire
- 29:27Speaker 3: on the floor of the garage just inside the door,
- 29:29Speaker 3: close quote. Apprehended by police as he walked away from
- 29:33Speaker 3: the property. I would imagine he was limping.
- 29:38Speaker 6: Okay.
- 29:38Speaker 12: Okay.
- 29:40Speaker 8: The aristocrats.
- 29:41Speaker 13: I guess you're right.
- 29:45Speaker 3: Your concrete doesn't have to look awful. It doesn't have
- 29:48Speaker 3: to look plain. That's 551 at 55KRCV Talk Station. Election Day.
- 29:57Speaker 3: Nine minutes until the polls open in Kentucky and Indiana.
- 30:00Speaker 3: And about right now, I'm going to take Dennis' call. Dennis,
- 30:03Speaker 3: thanks for calling the morning show today. Happy Election Day.
- 30:06Speaker 14: Yes, I guess it is.
- 30:08Speaker 3: Hopefully.
- 30:09Speaker 14: I want to harken back to 2020 when we had
- 30:11Speaker 14: that disaster called the COVID epidemic hit and the kinds
- 30:14Speaker 14: of casualties that two categories of areas had to submit to.
- 30:23Speaker 14: Here in Ohio, we have a population of a little
- 30:25Speaker 14: less than 12 million people. We took 36,000 dead in
- 30:29Speaker 14: one period in 2020. Conversely, a territory, a third world
- 30:37Speaker 14: medical and economic area called Uttar Pradesh in India took
- 30:44Speaker 14: 22,000 casualties. The difference is that Ohio has that 12
- 30:50Speaker 14: million population. Uttar Pradesh, up by the Nepalese border, There's
- 30:54Speaker 14: 240 million people. That's a province. That's not a whole country.
- 30:59Speaker 14: And during the arithmetic, Ohioans took a death rate of
- 31:07Speaker 14: over 32 times as many casualties, meaning deaths, than did
- 31:13Speaker 14: a third world country. And it was a difference. And
- 31:16Speaker 14: it wasn't in vaccinations because it didn't exist at the time.
- 31:19Speaker 14: The difference was is that the early treatment of COVID
- 31:23Speaker 14: was known. And in Ohio, the health department prohibited physicians
- 31:29Speaker 14: from practicing medicine appropriately.
- 31:31Speaker 3: Yes, they did.
- 31:32Speaker 14: And prohibited pharmacists from filling prescriptions from licensed physicians, complete
- 31:37Speaker 14: with narcotics licenses, to things that were more harmless than aspirin.
- 31:41Speaker 3: Yes, they did.
- 31:42Speaker 14: And we're in a situation where we're looking at putting
- 31:46Speaker 14: somebody into office that was responsible for literally the slaughter
- 31:53Speaker 14: of Ohioans. What do you think of that?
- 31:56Speaker 3: Well, you know, I'll just give you a nod of
- 31:59Speaker 3: approval on all that, but I think the problem springs
- 32:01Speaker 3: from the fact that Amy Acton was grossly incompetent and
- 32:04Speaker 3: didn't know what the hell she was doing. You think
- 32:06Speaker 3: she unilaterally came up with the idea of social distancing,
- 32:09Speaker 3: shutting down schools and mask mandates, allowing some businesses to
- 32:13Speaker 3: stay open and others to not stay open? It was
- 32:15Speaker 3: just a random, just sort of scattershot approach with everything,
- 32:19Speaker 3: but she got all those ideas from outside sources. I mean,
- 32:22Speaker 3: she didn't come up with it.
- 32:24Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 32:24Speaker 14: Obviously, you're dead on. You're dead on correct. She is
- 32:28Speaker 14: not competent to run a bicycle shop under close supervision.
- 32:32Speaker 3: I would agree.
- 32:32Speaker 14: But she is manipulable, can be manipulated to the point
- 32:38Speaker 14: where staff, not somebody elected, is going to control the government.
- 32:43Speaker 14: We saw what happened with Biden and the destruction of
- 32:46Speaker 14: a third or more of bank savings that people were
- 32:51Speaker 14: holding onto for their retirements. in the four years that
- 32:55Speaker 14: Uncle Joe was in office. It was clearly the same approach.
- 33:01Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure the Democrats are saying, yeah, we know
- 33:03Speaker 3: she's going to be a puppet, but she's our puppet.
- 33:06Speaker 3: And her puppet masters are our puppet masters, and we'll
- 33:08Speaker 3: take whatever she decides to pass along to us by
- 33:11Speaker 3: way of suggestion from her unelected resources. I'm certain that's
- 33:15Speaker 3: the way it's going to be. Either that or Pepper's
- 33:17Speaker 3: going to run the state of Ohio, the lieutenant governor.
- 33:19Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 33:20Speaker 1: The.
- 33:22Speaker 14: Election of Barack Hussein Obama was kind of the prototype
- 33:27Speaker 14: of that, because he led to the open statement that
- 33:30Speaker 14: he would prefer not to have a third term, but
- 33:33Speaker 14: would rather just pull the strings of a marionette from
- 33:39Speaker 14: his offices on Mass Avenue, up where the diplomatic embassies
- 33:43Speaker 14: are located in Washington, D.C., and that's exactly what he did.
- 33:46Speaker 14: He set up shop, essentially, as a foreign government agency.
- 33:50Speaker 14: And manipulated and controlled what Uncle Joe did as, you know,
- 33:54Speaker 14: brain-dead Woodrow Wilson did in his last year.
- 33:58Speaker 3: He and his wife. Well, you know, I mean, look
- 34:01Speaker 3: at it. If you're looking for a puppet to control,
- 34:04Speaker 3: who easier than Amy Acton? You know?
- 34:07Speaker 7: Absolutely.
- 34:07Speaker 3: There you have it.
- 34:08Speaker 14: Hey, you're brighter than the average bear.
- 34:11Speaker 3: Appreciate it. Go vote, Dennis. Bring your friends. Get them
- 34:14Speaker 3: out to vote. We can stop this from happening. Amy Acton.
- 34:18Speaker 3: Think about it. Governor Amy Acton. I'm just so happy.
- 34:23Speaker 12: Great.
- 34:24Speaker 3: Okay. Wonderful. So I said we're going to be the
- 34:26Speaker 3: laughingstock of the globe if we don't stop this from happening.
- 34:29Speaker 3: But you know what? Tomorrow's another day. We will live
- 34:32Speaker 3: and we will live to fight on another battle to
- 34:35Speaker 3: the extent we lose. I'm not writing it off yet. Station.
- 34:38Speaker 3: 606 at 55 KRC, the talk station. Brian Thomas here
- 34:43Speaker 3: wishing everyone a very happy election day and, of course,
- 34:46Speaker 3: encouraging people to get out and vote. Lots of gloom
- 34:48Speaker 3: and doom out there. Feeling it, feeling it, feeling it myself.
- 34:51Speaker 3: And hopefully we can overcome that challenge and get out
- 34:53Speaker 3: and vote and stop it from happening. It being Amy
- 34:55Speaker 3: acting for governor. I just still can't get over that
- 35:01Speaker 3: she is a viable candidate. Maybe you have some idea
- 35:06Speaker 3: what that actually reflects. I think it's maybe political apathy,
- 35:12Speaker 3: evil orange man. She's not a qualified candidate for the job. Okay.
- 35:17Speaker 3: Vivek Ramachandran is telling me evil. All right. In what way? Well,
- 35:23Speaker 3: you try to develop pharmaceuticals that didn't work. Yeah, okay.
- 35:26Speaker 3: That's what pharmaceutical companies do, and most of them don't.
- 35:30Speaker 3: Spending billions of dollars trying to bring something that doesn't
- 35:33Speaker 3: ultimately work because it failed in a stage three clinical trial.
- 35:35Speaker 3: You don't continue to move forward with something that failed
- 35:38Speaker 3: in a stage three clinical trial. At least you got
- 35:40Speaker 3: it to stage three. They tried to bring a life-saving pharmaceutical.
- 35:47Speaker 3: It just didn't work out. Welcome to entrepreneurialism. You're going
- 35:51Speaker 3: to crash and burn from time to time when you're
- 35:54Speaker 3: trying to find a product that the public demands and wants. Anyhow, 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK,
- 35:58Speaker 3: pound 550 on AT & T phones. Of course, it's
- 35:58Speaker 3: election day. Polls were open in Indiana and Kentucky. You
- 36:00Speaker 3: got about 25 minutes, a little less than 25 minutes
- 36:02Speaker 3: for Ohio. So that's 6 to 6 Kentucky, 6 to
- 36:12Speaker 3: 6 in Indiana, and 630 to 730 here in Ohio.
- 36:16Speaker 3: I'm assuming you understand the AM, PM reality. And does
- 36:19Speaker 3: anybody else hate the current situation where there's no sun?
- 36:22Speaker 3: I hate the clocks moving. Coming up, 7 to 5, Dr.
- 36:25Speaker 3: Jay Risser with the Empower You seminars for the week.
- 36:27Speaker 3: This week and next week, Tom Zalastowski, WeThePeopleConvention.org, with one
- 36:30Speaker 3: more plea for you to go out and vote. Fast
- 36:34Speaker 3: forward to 8 to 5, we've got the inside scoop,
- 36:36Speaker 3: Breitbart News, politics reporter Olivia Rondau. Should we be talking
- 36:40Speaker 3: about the latest election news from across the country? Maybe
- 36:43Speaker 3: a comment about Alaska? Talk about Democrats just outright cheating.
- 36:47Speaker 3: And there could be something criminal going on in Alaska, too.
- 36:50Speaker 3: It depends on the, well, it's like Watergate. The cover-up
- 36:55Speaker 3: ended up being worse than the underlying crime. So while
- 36:59Speaker 3: everyone knows they were putting a same-name candidate on the
- 37:02Speaker 3: ballot and actually went out and solicited to find somebody
- 37:05Speaker 3: to do that, The question is, will they lie about
- 37:07Speaker 3: it to feds who are investigating the potential criminal activity
- 37:10Speaker 3: along those lines? So just one of a multitude of
- 37:13Speaker 3: things Democrats will do. And plus, what a violent collective
- 37:16Speaker 3: group they have become. Is there any corollary between the
- 37:19Speaker 3: Democrat violence and anger and vitriol on the Republican side
- 37:23Speaker 3: of the ledger? I can't find it. Who's getting assassinated?
- 37:28Speaker 3: Who's trying to kill who? Who's beating the crap out
- 37:31Speaker 3: of who when you look over across this land of
- 37:33Speaker 3: ours of political differences that become violent? It's largely left-wing violence. Anyhow,
- 37:41Speaker 3: Daniel Davis deep-dived the latest on Iran. Of course, we
- 37:44Speaker 3: just dropped some bombs yesterday in response to the Iranians
- 37:48Speaker 3: trying to shoot down one of our planes. So just
- 37:52Speaker 3: a swirl of confusion on that one. No answer in sight. 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK,
- 37:58Speaker 3: pound 550 on AT & T phones. Peter Schweitzer's group,
- 38:01Speaker 3: the Government Accountability Office, or Institute, GAI, just released their
- 38:06Speaker 3: biannual Top 50 Election Threats Report, which reveals vulnerabilities in
- 38:12Speaker 3: five major areas of election security. In the release, America's
- 38:18Speaker 3: elections face threats from every direction, foreign adversaries, political operatives,
- 38:21Speaker 3: dark money, governmental officials who refuse to enforce the rules.
- 38:25Speaker 3: This report exposes more than 50 documented vulnerabilities. They say
- 38:29Speaker 3: none of these threats are hypothetical. Each one is documented.
- 38:32Speaker 3: And here's the point on this. Most can be fixed.
- 38:35Speaker 3: Going back to Democrats just trying to cheat their way.
- 38:40Speaker 3: You've got problems in your election system which can be
- 38:43Speaker 3: exploited to allow unlawful votes by people just simply not
- 38:47Speaker 3: legally allowed to cast a vote. Why don't you fix it?
- 38:51Speaker 3: Answer the damn question. Why don't you fix the problem?
- 38:54Speaker 3: You get every one of these Republicans out in the
- 38:56Speaker 3: world and people who care about election integrity to shut up. Well,
- 38:59Speaker 3: you got what you wanted. You got a photo ID law.
- 39:03Speaker 3: Attestation released verification of citizenship status. All the other areas
- 39:07Speaker 3: where we have holes that the GAI appointed out here,
- 39:10Speaker 3: you can fix them all. According to the report details,
- 39:14Speaker 3: a recent undercover investigation found two Iranian nationals registered to
- 39:18Speaker 3: vote in Michigan. It's only a couple. New Jersey, 6,600
- 39:23Speaker 3: self-identified non-citizens were registered to vote between 2023 and 2024.
- 39:27Speaker 3: Recent Census Bureau report linked more than 24,000. voters in
- 39:31Speaker 3: 2020 elections alone to non-citizen status with high confidence. DHS
- 39:37Speaker 3: separately identified 278,000 non-citizens registered to vote in federal elections nationwide.
- 39:44Speaker 3: The report points to permissive state policies. Here's where the
- 39:48Speaker 3: rubber meets the road. Why do you have permissive state
- 39:51Speaker 3: policies when it could lead to people voting that aren't
- 39:54Speaker 3: lawfully entitled to vote, he asked. Minnesota's vouching system, cited
- 39:59Speaker 3: as one of them, allows unidentified individuals to cast ballots
- 40:03Speaker 3: without ever showing an ID. California laws shielding non-citizens from
- 40:11Speaker 3: prosecution if they're caught registering to vote. Our GAI report
- 40:16Speaker 3: reads the results of such policy is predictable. Weak voter
- 40:19Speaker 3: ID laws, dirty voter rolls, and political operatives working to
- 40:22Speaker 3: maximize turnout while disregarding election security have opened the floodgates
- 40:26Speaker 3: for non-citizens voting. All the while, accountability is evaded. Is
- 40:30Speaker 3: that what this is all about? Yeah, you're damn right
- 40:33Speaker 3: it is. What other explanation, if you care about the
- 40:38Speaker 3: vote being clean and lawful, what other explanation can you
- 40:42Speaker 3: offer when there are giant semi-tractor trailer-sized holes you can
- 40:46Speaker 3: drive through... to evade the requirements and obligations under the law.
- 40:53Speaker 3: I guess they want non-citizens to vote. Well, brilliant conclusion, Thomas.
- 40:57Speaker 3: We can talk about that all along. Yeah, I know.
- 40:59Speaker 3: I'm doubling down on the fact that this is corruption
- 41:02Speaker 3: welcomed by the Democrats. Can they win an election without
- 41:05Speaker 3: this opportunity being presented? I know the holes in the
- 41:09Speaker 3: election process that they can drive these trucks through in
- 41:12Speaker 3: terms of illegals voting. Doesn't mean that the illegal immigrants
- 41:15Speaker 3: are necessarily going to vote for Democrats, but if I
- 41:17Speaker 3: was a betting man, I'm going to put all of
- 41:20Speaker 3: it on that happening. Report pointed out that as of
- 41:26Speaker 3: this year, 22 local governments in the United States allow
- 41:30Speaker 3: non-citizens to vote. Only 18 have strong state constitutional language
- 41:34Speaker 3: explicitly barring non-citizens from voting. That may change today because
- 41:39Speaker 3: a bunch of states, including Ohio, is seeking to constitutionally
- 41:43Speaker 3: memorialize the photo ID requirement here. Yeah, you can vote
- 41:47Speaker 3: for that one. Only 36 states require any form of
- 41:52Speaker 3: ID to vote. 36. Only 24 states require photo ID.
- 42:00Speaker 3: What's wrong with the SAVE Act? Leupold, Wisconsin's voter ID law,
- 42:06Speaker 3: according to the GAI, Let nearly 150,000 voters register as
- 42:11Speaker 3: indefinitely confined received absentee ballots in 2024 without showing a
- 42:16Speaker 3: qualifying photo ID. Indefinitely confined. I can't get out of
- 42:22Speaker 3: my house. Mail me one. No photo ID. Voters can
- 42:26Speaker 3: claim that status by simply checking a box that claims
- 42:29Speaker 3: their age, illness, or disability confines them to their house
- 42:31Speaker 3: with no proof required. Nobody checking. The report also talked
- 42:37Speaker 3: about or just raised issues about more than half of
- 42:40Speaker 3: the states refusing free federal checks of their voter rolls.
- 42:44Speaker 3: We've got all the documents here, says the federal government.
- 42:46Speaker 3: Go ahead and cross-check your voter rolls to make sure
- 42:49Speaker 3: that there aren't non-citizens, people, maybe dead people voting in
- 42:51Speaker 3: your elections. No, we don't want to do that. Why?
- 42:54Speaker 3: Why wouldn't you want clean voter rolls? That way when
- 42:57Speaker 3: your candidate wins, you can say, no, we've got the
- 42:59Speaker 3: tightest election system here in America. You couldn't make it
- 43:02Speaker 3: any tighter. We won fair and square.
- 43:04Speaker 6: Oh.
- 43:05Speaker 3: Fair and square. Maybe absent these loopholes and holes and
- 43:14Speaker 3: ease with which someone can violate the law, maybe that's
- 43:17Speaker 3: what secures their victory. But absent plugging the holes, we'll
- 43:20Speaker 3: never know now, will we? And we're left to speculate.
- 43:26Speaker 3: The organization this year, GIA reported, or GAI rather, argues
- 43:33Speaker 3: that Most threats to the United States election could be
- 43:36Speaker 3: mitigated by enforcing existing laws or tightening them. Calling on
- 43:39Speaker 3: the Senate to vote on the Save America Act is
- 43:42Speaker 3: a standalone bill that would require proof of citizenship for
- 43:45Speaker 3: federal elections, which is the law anyway. What's wrong with that? Now,
- 43:51Speaker 3: they acknowledge states have the right to govern their own elections.
- 43:53Speaker 3: Every state should be compelled to cooperate with federal voter
- 43:55Speaker 3: roll audits to ensure American votes are protected and the
- 43:58Speaker 3: right to vote is not extended to non-citizens. This is
- 44:00Speaker 3: something that we all enjoy. It is a protection against
- 44:03Speaker 3: having our elections influenced by people who aren't the citizens
- 44:06Speaker 3: of the United States of America. Isn't that a good thing?
- 44:09Speaker 3: Go ahead, answer the question. Isn't that a good thing?
- 44:18Speaker 3: Who's standing in the way of that? Do we want
- 44:20Speaker 3: our federal elections to be dominated by outside influences recently
- 44:25Speaker 3: arriving here in the United States of America and not assimilated?
- 44:33Speaker 3: Right here in Ohio, you've got a Democratic state representative,
- 44:36Speaker 3: Ismail Mohamed, saying that, well, our aim is a united
- 44:41Speaker 3: front to lobby for Somalia. This guy is a legitimate,
- 44:46Speaker 3: a seated official, a citizen. He's okay to be there.
- 44:49Speaker 3: but his advocacy is to lobby for Somalia. This is
- 44:52Speaker 3: someone who's allowed to be here, and his primary focus
- 44:55Speaker 3: of being an elected official is to advocate for Somalia.
- 44:58Speaker 3: What about all the people that just showed up from
- 44:59Speaker 3: the four corners of the globe? You think they're advocating
- 45:02Speaker 3: for positions that are strong for America and American citizens?
- 45:06Speaker 3: Probably not. Probably not.
- 45:10Speaker 4: 616.
- 45:15Speaker 3: Jay, I promise you you're first. Had to get what
- 45:18Speaker 3: I could out of the talk station. 621-55-KRC, the talk station. Yeah,
- 45:23Speaker 3: I'm going to go to the phones right now, but
- 45:24Speaker 3: real quick here. You're right. Yes, Maureen. State Representative Ismail Mohammed,
- 45:29Speaker 3: in addition to his game being to, well, a united
- 45:32Speaker 3: front to lobby for Somalia. We here in Ohio with
- 45:34Speaker 3: the largest Somalian population outside of Somalia. I guess after Minneapolis.
- 45:40Speaker 2: 70,000.
- 45:41Speaker 3: Isn't that Governor DeWine's doing, Joe? He was a big
- 45:45Speaker 3: fan of the Somali community. Hey, oh, Haitians, that's right.
- 45:48Speaker 3: That's a completely separate topic. Anyway, this Mohammed Ismail guy,
- 45:52Speaker 3: or Ismail Mohammed, endorsed Amy Acton in a television ad. And,
- 45:57Speaker 3: of course, she welcomes his endorsement. Although I think she's Jewish,
- 46:02Speaker 3: isn't she? Anyway, Jay, thanks for holding, and welcome to
- 46:04Speaker 3: The Morning Show.
- 46:06Speaker 10: Hey, thank you, Brian.
- 46:07Speaker 11: Hey, I think that you were nailing it with the
- 46:10Speaker 11: SAVE Act.
- 46:11Speaker 1: Here we go again.
- 46:11Speaker 11: 14 blue states leading 36 red states around by the nose.
- 46:18Speaker 11: And Republicans have a lot that they own to be blamed.
- 46:22Speaker 10: For if we lose this election.
- 46:24Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 46:27Speaker 11: Let's just start talking, Ohio, about where are the conservatives
- 46:30Speaker 11: and why aren't they showing up?
- 46:33Speaker 3: Wait, wait, wait. You don't know that yet, Jay. You
- 46:36Speaker 3: can't know that they're not showing up.
- 46:37Speaker 2: No, we don't know that.
- 46:38Speaker 3: I said yes. Do this post-mortem tomorrow. When we know.
- 46:42Speaker 3: I mean, I don't want to discourage anybody from voting.
- 46:45Speaker 3: It's a foregone conclusion, according to you, Jay, and I
- 46:47Speaker 3: don't want to go down that road. I'm feeling that way,
- 46:50Speaker 3: but I'm willing to wait it out and find out.
- 46:53Speaker 3: But yeah, Republicans have a lot to blame themselves for
- 46:57Speaker 3: in the event that there is a big loss when
- 47:02Speaker 3: we wake up tomorrow. I agree with that. Go ahead. Tom,
- 47:09Speaker 3: welcome to the morning show. Happy election day.
- 47:13Speaker 2: Yeah, I had to call in today.
- 47:15Speaker 3: Thank you, Tom. I missed hearing from you.
- 47:16Speaker 2: I missed talking to you guys. I had to call
- 47:20Speaker 2: in today and chime in on this. So, yeah, I've
- 47:25Speaker 2: got the same feelings in general, but You know, your
- 47:29Speaker 2: feelings are all based on what you're hearing and seeing
- 47:31Speaker 2: and stuff like that. And that's not always the truth.
- 47:36Speaker 2: So the left has a big loudspeaker out there called
- 47:39Speaker 2: the media. And they wield it and do whatever they
- 47:43Speaker 2: want with it and make people think this is what's
- 47:45Speaker 2: going on when it's really not. And as much as
- 47:48Speaker 2: they lie to us, as much as they use the
- 47:50Speaker 2: media to lie to us, we can't really believe what
- 47:53Speaker 2: we see. I'm cautiously optimistic. I'm very hopeful. Because this
- 48:01Speaker 2: country and our way of life is worth saving. And
- 48:05Speaker 2: every election, if we do lose, every election we lose
- 48:11Speaker 2: is just farther down the road away from the country
- 48:14Speaker 2: and the lifestyle that we love. And it's just more
- 48:17Speaker 2: and more people trying to come in and infiltrate our country.
- 48:21Speaker 2: I don't understand if.
- 48:25Speaker 2: If you like it here so much, why are you
- 48:26Speaker 2: wanting to change it and make it like the place
- 48:29Speaker 2: you left? I don't get that.
- 48:30Speaker 3: And what they purport to want is exactly what is
- 48:34Speaker 3: failing the entire European Union. It's collapsing under the weight
- 48:38Speaker 3: of what the socialists are pushing. Can't you wake up
- 48:42Speaker 3: and see that, people? It doesn't work. You know, I
- 48:46Speaker 3: can't go back. Amy Acton is a viable candidate. I mean,
- 48:48Speaker 3: saying that out loud makes me just want to, like,
- 48:51Speaker 3: did I wake up in some surreal Salvador Dali version
- 48:54Speaker 3: of the United States of America? I mean, what the
- 48:56Speaker 3: hell does that mean? That's why I'm saying, you know,
- 48:58Speaker 3: I don't want to write it off completely. It's not
- 49:00Speaker 3: a foregone conclusion because you say Governor Amy Acton, when
- 49:03Speaker 3: you know what you know about her, when you see
- 49:05Speaker 3: her in action, when you know what she has done
- 49:08Speaker 3: in the past, how could she even have qualified to
- 49:10Speaker 3: be a candidate?
- 49:12Speaker 2: Well, you know, you think of all the other people
- 49:14Speaker 2: that they've put up. and gotten past the finish line with.
- 49:20Speaker 2: you know, so it's doable.
- 49:22Speaker 3: Obviously, they know the left.
- 49:24Speaker 2: The left can do all kinds of crazy, magical things
- 49:28Speaker 2: with all the powers that they have, powers of persuasion
- 49:31Speaker 2: using all of it. But everybody needs to make sure
- 49:34Speaker 2: that they remember at all times, no matter what, Doesn't
- 49:37Speaker 2: matter what they tell you. It doesn't matter what you
- 49:39Speaker 2: think you're saying. Don't vote Democrat. Have a great day.
- 49:43Speaker 3: Thanks, Tom. Good to hear from you, brother. Looking forward
- 49:45Speaker 3: to having you back on regularly chiming in on this topic. 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK.
- 49:48Speaker 3: Pound 550 on AT & T phones. Five minutes till
- 49:50Speaker 3: the talk station. 629-55KRC, the talk station. 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK. Pound
- 49:52Speaker 3: 550 on AT & T phones. Let's go to the phones.
- 50:07Speaker 3: We've got Todd on the line. Todd, thanks so much
- 50:08Speaker 3: for calling today. Happy Election Day.
- 50:11Speaker 12: Happy Election Day, Brian. Just did that myself.
- 50:14Speaker 3: Good for you.
- 50:16Speaker 12: Over here in Kentucky, the polls opened at 6. And
- 50:20Speaker 12: I was a little worried when I got there because
- 50:22Speaker 12: there was nobody in line. But I got there about
- 50:27Speaker 12: 10 after 6. There had already been about a dozen
- 50:29Speaker 12: people there. And when I left, there was about eight
- 50:33Speaker 12: or nine more with more cars pulling in. So, so far,
- 50:38Speaker 12: in my little district, we've got people turning out to vote.
- 50:43Speaker 12: One thing on the Kentucky ballot, make sure you look
- 50:47Speaker 12: at both sides of the ballot, because there's a couple
- 50:49Speaker 12: races on the back side and a constitutional amendment to
- 50:55Speaker 12: look at.
- 50:55Speaker 6: So....
- 50:58Speaker 12: Flip that ballot over. Make sure you fill out both sides.
- 51:02Speaker 12: And I would also encourage people, whether you're Democrat or Republican,
- 51:06Speaker 12: you know, even if you're going to vote that way,
- 51:09Speaker 12: don't check the straight ticket box. Go ahead and go
- 51:13Speaker 12: down through the list. Look at each candidate because you
- 51:18Speaker 12: might be on the fence. And, you know, it might
- 51:22Speaker 12: cause you to reevaluate your choice. But go ahead. Give
- 51:25Speaker 12: each race a look. see who's on there, and get
- 51:30Speaker 12: out there and vote. And I think the most important thing,
- 51:36Speaker 12: and I did not do this this morning, but the
- 51:38Speaker 12: most important thing is don't vote Democrat.
- 51:42Speaker 3: Hey, Todd, are you by any chance in Kentucky's 4th
- 51:47Speaker 3: Congressional District, formerly Congressman Massey, is now Ed Gowrain running
- 51:51Speaker 3: for that seat? Were you voting in that one?
- 51:54Speaker 6: Yes, sir.
- 51:55Speaker 3: OK, I just get Gowrain's been suspiciously absent from the well,
- 52:00Speaker 3: the campaign stage. And I'm really not quite sure what
- 52:03Speaker 3: he's running on other than what I read boiled down
- 52:05Speaker 3: from the Cincinnati or Fox 19's on his position. But
- 52:10Speaker 3: Melissa Strange is the challenger. I don't know what she
- 52:13Speaker 3: where she has been or what she's running on either.
- 52:15Speaker 3: So it was was there any advertising? Were there any campaigning?
- 52:18Speaker 3: Was there any debate between Gowrain and Strange?
- 52:22Speaker 12: I don't believe there was a debate, but there was
- 52:25Speaker 12: campaigning going on, although, you know, it was more localized.
- 52:29Speaker 12: It wasn't as upfront as some of the other races.
- 52:35Speaker 12: But I heard nothing from the strange lady. I'm sorry,
- 52:44Speaker 12: I couldn't help that.
- 52:45Speaker 3: No, that's okay.
- 52:45Speaker 6: No.
- 52:48Speaker 3: No fan of Abigail Rain, am I? Because I'm a
- 52:50Speaker 3: huge fan of Congressman Massey, and I always will be.
- 52:52Speaker 3: But the Strange Lady, I think it's an accurate sort
- 52:57Speaker 3: of summary of who she probably is.
- 53:00Speaker 12: And that could be applied to the Ohio governor's race, too.
- 53:07Speaker 3: Amy Strange Acton, yes.
- 53:11Speaker 12: Or Kamala 2.0.
- 53:13Speaker 3: Todd, are you confident that Gowran's going to win that one?
- 53:16Speaker 3: I mean, coming off of Congressman Massey, I can't imagine
- 53:19Speaker 3: the fourth going full-on Democrat.
- 53:24Speaker 12: Brian, 64 years of life has taught me to never
- 53:29Speaker 12: be confident about anything when it comes to elections.
- 53:32Speaker 3: You sound like me. Fair enough, Todd. Thank you for
- 53:35Speaker 3: calling in. If you've been to the polls, you want
- 53:38Speaker 3: to give a report on how crowded they are, if
- 53:40Speaker 3: people are showing up in large numbers, I'd love to
- 53:42Speaker 3: hear from you.
- 53:42Speaker 12: 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK.
- 53:42Speaker 3: Found 550 on AT & T phone. Yeah, Kentucky's going
- 53:44Speaker 3: to decide the Mitch McConnell seat today.
- 53:45Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 53:54Speaker 3: And the pardoning powers, that's Amendment 1, is on the
- 53:56Speaker 3: ballot in Kentucky. Kentucky is going to vote yes or
- 53:59Speaker 3: no on Amendment 1, which would limit the governor's pardoning power.
- 54:02Speaker 3: If it passes, it will prohibit the governor from pardoning
- 54:04Speaker 3: someone from 60 days before a gubernatorial election until the
- 54:08Speaker 3: day the governor is sworn in. Yes vote would approve
- 54:11Speaker 3: the amendment. No vote would leave Kentucky Constitution unchanged. So
- 54:15Speaker 3: there's your extra item for my friends in Kentucky. Over
- 54:19Speaker 3: to local stories beyond the 44 arrests that did, in fact,
- 54:22Speaker 3: take place over the weekend in downtown Cincinnati. What else happened?
- 54:27Speaker 3: Suspect on the run after holding up a UDF in
- 54:29Speaker 3: Madisonville yesterday. According to Cincinnati Police, they showed up at
- 54:32Speaker 3: the convenience store and gas station on Madison Road about
- 54:34Speaker 3: 1230 in the morning. Gunman wearing a mask and all
- 54:37Speaker 3: black clothes, according to police. Last seen running away from
- 54:40Speaker 3: the UDF. Canine sent into the area, but the suspect
- 54:43Speaker 3: still managed to escape. Any information, you want to get
- 54:45Speaker 3: in touch with the Cincinnati Police Department on that. Walnut Hills.
- 54:49Speaker 3: Man arrested in connection with the deadly Walnut Hills shooting
- 54:51Speaker 3: that happened in the spring. Jeshuan Camper, 25, taken to custody,
- 54:56Speaker 3: charged with murder and felonious assault this past Friday, months
- 54:59Speaker 3: after the shooting in the 2400 block of May Street.
- 55:01Speaker 3: According to the Cincinnati Police, officers showed up at the
- 55:05Speaker 3: scene on May 20th when they found 40-year-old Eugene Walls
- 55:08Speaker 3: with a gunshot wound to the chest, taken to the
- 55:10Speaker 3: hospital where he died. Camper taken to the Hamlin County
- 55:13Speaker 3: Justice Center where he's expected back in court on the 6th.
- 55:17Speaker 3: Investigation is ongoing, so the police say if you have
- 55:19Speaker 3: any information, the homicide unit is who to call, 513-352-3542.
- 55:23Speaker 3: More to talk about. Please feel free to give me
- 55:28Speaker 3: a call if you're in Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana. All the
- 55:31Speaker 3: polls are open. It's 639-55KRCD Talk Station. Happy Election Day.
- 55:35Speaker 3: Get out and vote. Polls are open in Ohio, Kentucky,
- 55:37Speaker 3: and Indiana to do just that. Yeah, and you must
- 55:42Speaker 3: go out and vote. And all those different methodologies of fraud,
- 55:44Speaker 3: and thank you, Maureen, you pointed this out. It was
- 55:46Speaker 3: kind of what I was going to. You've got to
- 55:47Speaker 3: be gloomy and doomy, which is how I feel. I
- 55:49Speaker 3: can't believe that we are even close in this kind
- 55:51Speaker 3: of election. But all of the mechanisms for illegal voting
- 55:57Speaker 3: to take place, that assumes a certain percentage of people
- 56:02Speaker 3: will vote illegally. How many people can that possibly be?
- 56:05Speaker 3: And this isn't me saying it's not that big of
- 56:06Speaker 3: a deal. It is a very big deal. But if
- 56:09Speaker 3: Republicans or conservatives or even independent-minded folks who don't want
- 56:13Speaker 3: the election stolen show up in large numbers, you can
- 56:16Speaker 3: overwhelm the illegal voting component of the Democrat votes. And again,
- 56:21Speaker 3: I'm going to default saying that anybody voting illegally is
- 56:23Speaker 3: doing so to benefit the Democrat Party. Democrats are the
- 56:28Speaker 3: only ones standing in the way of some reforms that
- 56:29Speaker 3: will stop this possibly from happening. So the only way
- 56:33Speaker 3: to defeat it in a world where they don't care
- 56:36Speaker 3: about plugging the opportunities to vote illegally is to show
- 56:39Speaker 3: up in large numbers. Many suggest that's exactly what happened,
- 56:43Speaker 3: and that's the reason why Donald Trump is president right now.
- 56:47Speaker 3: Because all these opportunities to vote illegally existed when he
- 56:50Speaker 3: got elected again. So remember that, keep it in mind,
- 56:53Speaker 3: and As bad as you feel going in that you're
- 56:55Speaker 3: not going to win tomorrow, your vote still means a
- 56:58Speaker 3: tremendous amount. Let's go to the phone and see what
- 57:00Speaker 3: Drew Pappas has. Mr. Pappas, welcome to the morning show, sir.
- 57:03Speaker 3: It's always great hearing from you. Going to be in
- 57:05Speaker 3: your neck of the woods tomorrow for listener lunch at
- 57:07Speaker 3: Anderson Pub and Grill.
- 57:09Speaker 9: I'll have to definitely... Thanks for... I've been a little preoccupied,
- 57:12Speaker 9: if you can imagine. Thanks for reminding me. I will
- 57:16Speaker 9: definitely be there.
- 57:17Speaker 3: I'm glad to hear that. At least I'll have you
- 57:20Speaker 3: to cry over my beer or celebrate and hoist a
- 57:23Speaker 3: beer in happiness over the election. Either way we go,
- 57:27Speaker 3: I'm definitely going to be there.
- 57:29Speaker 9: Whatever happens, happens. We've seen a lot of changes in
- 57:35Speaker 9: the electorate here, especially out on our side of town. However,
- 57:40Speaker 9: That being said, nothing frustrates me more than hearing people,
- 57:47Speaker 9: whether it's on the radio or on social media, lamenting, blah,
- 57:53Speaker 9: this or.
- 57:53Speaker 3: Blah, that.
- 57:54Speaker 9: And then you boil it down a little bit deeper
- 57:56Speaker 9: and you say, well, you know, A, did you vote?
- 58:00Speaker 9: And if the answer comes back, no, the conversation for
- 58:02Speaker 9: me stops right there.
- 58:04Speaker 3: Exactly.
- 58:05Speaker 9: You know, you have an obligation and And I call
- 58:09Speaker 9: on all those people of either self-proclaimed or whatever type
- 58:16Speaker 9: of faith you profess to have. If you stay home
- 58:19Speaker 9: today for whatever reason because candidate A in a certain
- 58:24Speaker 9: slot didn't fit your narrative of the perfect candidate, I'd
- 58:28Speaker 9: like to remind you there's only been one perfect human
- 58:31Speaker 9: being on this planet, and they nailed him to a
- 58:33Speaker 9: cross several thousand years ago. At the end of the day,
- 58:37Speaker 9: no one is perfect. And this is not election day.
- 58:41Speaker 9: It's not Valentine's Day. It's not a professing of your
- 58:46Speaker 9: love of a candidate. It's a chess game that you're
- 58:49Speaker 9: playing with the other side. And chess games involve strategy.
- 58:54Speaker 3: It involves thought.
- 58:55Speaker 9: It involves future motions, future moves. And you think moves ahead. So,
- 59:02Speaker 9: you know, get out there and support the candidate that
- 59:05Speaker 9: most closely aligns with your beliefs and has it. least
- 59:10Speaker 9: in some way, shape or form expressed support for your beliefs.
- 59:14Speaker 9: And if you don't vote, you really have no one
- 59:17Speaker 9: to blame. You can't point your finger at, you know,
- 59:21Speaker 9: the other side, whatever that side might be and say, well,
- 59:24Speaker 9: you know, they did this or they did that. The
- 59:25Speaker 9: fault lies with you. So I love.
- 59:29Speaker 10: What you're saying this morning, most every morning, actually.
- 59:32Speaker 9: But this morning, you're really hitting a nerve because we
- 59:38Speaker 9: have a lot of good people out here across the
- 59:42Speaker 9: county that are manning polls this morning, some in not
- 59:46Speaker 9: the friendliest environments. And they're handing out sample ballots so
- 59:50Speaker 9: people can see who most closely aligns with the party
- 59:54Speaker 9: that I support, the Republican Party, especially our judges who
- 59:58Speaker 9: do not have the benefit of having an R or
- 1:00:01Speaker 9: D next to their name. And given the violence that
- 1:00:04Speaker 9: we've seen in Hamilton County, given the headlines that we've seen,
- 1:00:07Speaker 9: given the disregard for law and order by our judges
- 1:00:11Speaker 9: that are in place now, supported and endorsed by the
- 1:00:15Speaker 9: Democrat Party, I do not understand how anybody in any way, shape,
- 1:00:20Speaker 9: or form can go out and vote. And I'd like
- 1:00:24Speaker 9: to give a special acknowledgement, if I might, to the
- 1:00:27Speaker 9: efforts that our party has put forth this election cycle
- 1:00:33Speaker 9: and has really worked their tail off under the guidance
- 1:00:36Speaker 9: of our new party chairman, Josh Gerth, who has really,
- 1:00:39Speaker 9: I can honestly say, I might have a little inside
- 1:00:42Speaker 9: information here more than most, but he has worked his
- 1:00:46Speaker 9: proverbial tail off in a few short months to try
- 1:00:50Speaker 9: to whip this county together. and get whatever victories might
- 1:00:57Speaker 9: be possible today. So, you know, for no compensation, I'd like.
- 1:01:03Speaker 3: To point that out as well.
- 1:01:05Speaker 9: People have a misnomer that the party gets money from
- 1:01:08Speaker 9: the state and the local Hamilton County gets a stipend
- 1:01:12Speaker 9: from the state and there's a big giant safe inside
- 1:01:16Speaker 9: Hamilton County headquarters. Nothing could be further from the truth.
- 1:01:21Speaker 9: And the people that volunteer and donate their time for
- 1:01:24Speaker 9: this are doing it out of a love for country
- 1:01:28Speaker 9: and a love for, you know, I'm not doing it
- 1:01:31Speaker 9: for my kids. I don't have any. And a lot
- 1:01:33Speaker 9: of people out here aren't doing it necessarily for their kids.
- 1:01:36Speaker 9: They're doing it for your kids, for everyone's kids. So
- 1:01:38Speaker 9: they grow up in a country with the most opportunity
- 1:01:42Speaker 9: to succeed. And they're not necessarily looking for a handout.
- 1:01:45Speaker 9: They're just looking for an opportunity. So I just... I
- 1:01:50Speaker 9: can't stress enough how everybody needs to get out there
- 1:01:54Speaker 9: and vote. And sadly, you and I will lament. The
- 1:01:56Speaker 9: one thing I will lament most tomorrow with you at
- 1:02:00Speaker 9: Anderson Township Pub is the participation rate, whatever that turns
- 1:02:06Speaker 9: out to be. And I don't know what the over-under
- 1:02:08Speaker 9: here is in Hamilton County, what you profess to think
- 1:02:13Speaker 9: the turnout would be. But if we're hopeful for, I mean,
- 1:02:17Speaker 9: what would make you happy, Brian, a turnout rate?
- 1:02:20Speaker 3: Well, I really would like to see something in the
- 1:02:24Speaker 3: 70 percentile, 75 percent maybe. That would be overwhelming, obviously
- 1:02:28Speaker 3: a lot bigger in an off-year election, even though I
- 1:02:30Speaker 3: don't consider this an off-year election. But I'm not holding
- 1:02:33Speaker 3: out any hopes for that level of turnout, sadly.
- 1:02:36Speaker 9: I don't even know if that's– I mean, to be fair,
- 1:02:39Speaker 9: I don't even know if that's ever happened.
- 1:02:41Speaker 3: I don't think it has. I'm guessing. It's a complete guess.
- 1:02:44Speaker 3: Sphincter-inspired figure pulled from my sphincter. So I don't know.
- 1:02:47Speaker 3: But it will be kind of cool. That'd be kind
- 1:02:49Speaker 3: of in line with European elections, wouldn't it?
- 1:02:52Speaker 9: I just I just you know, here we are all
- 1:02:55Speaker 9: the effort and I will miss. I have to say
- 1:02:57Speaker 9: I talked to Joe. I hope there's some way that
- 1:02:59Speaker 9: we can scroll back and save so that when I
- 1:03:02Speaker 9: have insomnia at some point I can play back these
- 1:03:05Speaker 9: campaign ads ad nauseum. But, you know, the the. So
- 1:03:11Speaker 9: maybe that's a maybe that's a Web page we can
- 1:03:13Speaker 9: create with old ads, old campaign ads and just scroll them. But,
- 1:03:18Speaker 9: you know, if we're sitting here working our tails off,
- 1:03:21Speaker 9: these candidates are spending money. And let me say this.
- 1:03:25Speaker 9: Have you ever seen on the state level? Our Republican
- 1:03:29Speaker 9: state organization has been in a bus for damn near
- 1:03:33Speaker 9: two weeks rolling across every square inch of Ohio, attending
- 1:03:38Speaker 9: every function. reaching out to try to reach almost every,
- 1:03:42Speaker 9: every acre of Ohio.
- 1:03:44Speaker 14: Right.
- 1:03:44Speaker 9: And, you know, they've worked there and I'm just going
- 1:03:46Speaker 9: to say it out is a lot of people will admit, well,
- 1:03:48Speaker 9: you know, and I'm not picking on any one caller,
- 1:03:51Speaker 9: but people will call up and say, you know, the
- 1:03:53Speaker 9: Republicans need to do this or the Republicans need to
- 1:03:56Speaker 9: do that in some just big white wall brush. But,
- 1:04:00Speaker 9: you know, I've seen a lot of elections. I don't
- 1:04:03Speaker 9: recall one that's, There has been this concerted effort, at
- 1:04:08Speaker 9: least on my party's part, to get out there at
- 1:04:10Speaker 9: both the state and local level and drum up and
- 1:04:13Speaker 9: make the case that they're the best choice and just vote.
- 1:04:17Speaker 9: I just don't remember it.
- 1:04:19Speaker 3: Look at Trump. In addition to what's going on within
- 1:04:22Speaker 3: the state of Ohio and the Ohio Republican Party, look
- 1:04:24Speaker 3: at what Trump's been doing. That guy's been traveling around
- 1:04:26Speaker 3: the country 24-7 doing the exact same thing and having
- 1:04:29Speaker 3: to go, and I emphasize the word having, having to
- 1:04:31Speaker 3: go to states which used to be a guaranteed lock
- 1:04:34Speaker 3: for the Republican Party. I think this concerted effort and
- 1:04:37Speaker 3: all this work is done out of a genuine concern
- 1:04:39Speaker 3: that we're going to see a really crazy blue wave,
- 1:04:41Speaker 3: and unlike any former blue wave, this blue wave is
- 1:04:44Speaker 3: filled with socialists, a party that has embraced it.
- 1:04:49Speaker 9: I'm looking today, the races, not only local, obviously, those
- 1:04:52Speaker 9: are very important, and I'm helping making sure that our
- 1:04:55Speaker 9: polls are staffed and with people and literature so that
- 1:04:59Speaker 9: people make a informed decision when they go in, but
- 1:05:03Speaker 9: I'm looking at races in Texas. If Tallarico wins, I
- 1:05:07Speaker 9: don't know what that means for the populace in general.
- 1:05:11Speaker 9: If Saeed wins in Michigan, I don't know what that
- 1:05:16Speaker 9: means for our country. These are races that I'm looking at.
- 1:05:20Speaker 9: If Amy Acton, given everything, given video that Just yesterday
- 1:05:26Speaker 9: or the two days ago, you know, Amy Acton, we
- 1:05:29Speaker 9: finally have seen why they don't allow unscripted video because
- 1:05:34Speaker 9: apparently sobriety is a challenge for her. You know, I
- 1:05:39Speaker 9: just I will scratch my head and say, you know,
- 1:05:43Speaker 9: I don't understand the voter when a candidate of this
- 1:05:48Speaker 9: cloth can be considered not only a viable candidate. But
- 1:05:52Speaker 9: also then have a fairly decent shot, if not win
- 1:05:55Speaker 9: the election. Given all the information that's available out there.
- 1:06:00Speaker 9: Because why? Because you don't like Donald Trump. Well, Donald
- 1:06:04Speaker 9: Trump is only going to be in office two more years.
- 1:06:07Speaker 9: But the decisions you make now on who you elect
- 1:06:10Speaker 9: echo through eternity. So there you got it.
- 1:06:13Speaker 3: Well stated, Drew. I appreciate it. Oh, real quick here.
- 1:06:15Speaker 3: Chip wants to know, is there an East Side Watch party?
- 1:06:19Speaker 3: If you know.
- 1:06:21Speaker 9: Um, I know that there's one up at the, uh,
- 1:06:24Speaker 9: up on the North side of town. I don't believe
- 1:06:27Speaker 9: there's actually a organized, you know, the, the, the problem is,
- 1:06:31Speaker 9: is that number one, these people that have been working
- 1:06:35Speaker 9: out here, when it comes to seven 30 at night,
- 1:06:37Speaker 9: when the polls close, they're going to be pretty tired
- 1:06:38Speaker 9: and they're going to want to go home. And even
- 1:06:41Speaker 9: a politico like me, I mean, I don't know if
- 1:06:43Speaker 9: I am or I'm not, but I would say some
- 1:06:45Speaker 9: people have described me as such. When it comes to
- 1:06:48Speaker 9: 730 at night, I pretty much want to turtle up
- 1:06:51Speaker 9: and go home and put my feet up and watch
- 1:06:53Speaker 9: the returns. I don't believe there's an organized East Side.
- 1:06:58Speaker 9: watch party. I know at the Silver Spring House, there
- 1:07:02Speaker 9: will be a watch party there, and that is a
- 1:07:05Speaker 9: wonderful facility owned by a wonderful human being that helps
- 1:07:09Speaker 9: serve the causes. So I would suggest that if you
- 1:07:13Speaker 9: want to go watch returns roll in and ponder and
- 1:07:18Speaker 9: be among like-minded people, I would say Silver Spring House.
- 1:07:23Speaker 9: That's the closest one that pops in my head.
- 1:07:25Speaker 3: And Magistrate Lucan, hopefully will be Judge Lucan after today.
- 1:07:28Speaker 3: She is having hers there as well. So maybe it's
- 1:07:30Speaker 3: a collective of conservative politicians. But you're right about the
- 1:07:34Speaker 3: Silver Spring House without question. Drew, thank you for the call, man.
- 1:07:37Speaker 3: Thank you for all your efforts and your work as well.
- 1:07:39Speaker 3: I truly appreciate it. 651, real quick here. Get your roof, siding,
- 1:07:43Speaker 3: gutters inspected before winter. 7 0 6 F 55 care.
- 1:07:48Speaker 3: See the toxins got to wait for the buildup.
- 1:07:51Speaker 11: Right.
- 1:07:51Speaker 3: I was here and I see up and Jeff and Jennifer,
- 1:07:54Speaker 3: please hold. I'll be happy to get your calls after
- 1:07:55Speaker 3: we're done talking with Jay Rizzo, who's managing the empower
- 1:08:00Speaker 3: you america.org seminar series. And Ben has some great ones
- 1:08:02Speaker 3: coming up here. Notably on the 10th, Jay, I'm allowed
- 1:08:05Speaker 3: to prioritize based on my subjective opinion, but welcome back, Jay.
- 1:08:09Speaker 3: It's great having you on the program.
- 1:08:11Speaker 6: I agree with you, Brian. I want you to prioritize.
- 1:08:14Speaker 6: That'll be a good one, too. Oh, yeah.
- 1:08:15Speaker 3: Let's talk about November 5th, because there's no Empower You
- 1:08:18Speaker 3: seminar tonight. Normally, Tuesdays and Thursdays, but it's Election Day, right?
- 1:08:21Speaker 3: So we're going to kick it off until Thursday.
- 1:08:24Speaker 12: Right.
- 1:08:24Speaker 6: Everybody go out and vote. Yes. Come to our Scarlet
- 1:08:26Speaker 6: Oaks classroom. Please go out and vote. So November 5th,
- 1:08:32Speaker 6: Thursday this week, in person we'll have Bold by Julie O'Neill.
- 1:08:36Speaker 6: Don't know if you remember her. She spent 27 years
- 1:08:39Speaker 6: at WCPO-TV. She's one of our local newscasters. Been in
- 1:08:42Speaker 6: the community a long time. And she wrote this book, Bold,
- 1:08:46Speaker 6: the secret to my big wins to help you crash
- 1:08:48Speaker 6: through your comfort zone. It's a memoir and a self-help guide.
- 1:08:52Speaker 6: And it draws from her decades in TV news and
- 1:08:55Speaker 6: strategies to overcome fear and take risks and build confidence.
- 1:08:59Speaker 6: And she had a kind of controversial departure from WCPO-TV,
- 1:09:03Speaker 6: and she rejected a $ 50, 000 severance package to avoid signing
- 1:09:07Speaker 6: a non-disclosure agreement, choosing instead to speak publicly about her experience.
- 1:09:11Speaker 6: So I don't really have the details on this, and
- 1:09:13Speaker 6: now I am teased.
- 1:09:15Speaker 2: I am ready.
- 1:09:15Speaker 6: I got to find out what happened and why.
- 1:09:17Speaker 14: She did this.
- 1:09:18Speaker 3: Yeah, this is in person or log in from home, correct?
- 1:09:22Speaker 6: That is correct. In person at 300 Scarlet Oaks Drive
- 1:09:26Speaker 6: at the Empower U at Scarlet Oaks. And, of course,
- 1:09:30Speaker 6: on Zoom or Rumble or on our website at empoweruamerica.org.
- 1:09:34Speaker 3: Just make sure you register.
- 1:09:35Speaker 6: Please come listen to us anyway.
- 1:09:37Speaker 3: Yeah, register before 7 p.m. on Thursday and check that
- 1:09:39Speaker 3: one out. And then the one that I'm excited about,
- 1:09:41Speaker 3: and I think my listening audience will really be intrigued
- 1:09:43Speaker 3: by this one, the one on November 10th, Jay.
- 1:09:47Speaker 6: Yeah, that'll be Tuesday. It'll be virtual. But, you know,
- 1:09:50Speaker 6: he is out of town. But they're all virtual on Tuesdays.
- 1:09:54Speaker 6: And we'll have Dan Regan. I was going to be
- 1:09:55Speaker 6: hosting him virtually. So he has to be the one
- 1:09:58Speaker 6: who managed to acquire Tyler.
- 1:10:00Speaker 3: You didn't. There you go. You got to say who
- 1:10:02Speaker 3: we're talking about. The name of the seminar, Jay. Inside Doge.
- 1:10:05Speaker 3: What really happened with Tyler Hassett?
- 1:10:08Speaker 6: Tyler is one of the boys, I think, that Elon
- 1:10:12Speaker 6: Musk brought to Washington in the Doge group. And this
- 1:10:16Speaker 6: is his senior advisor's tell-all book. It includes late-night meetings
- 1:10:20Speaker 6: in the West Wing to high-stakes confrontations with senators. I
- 1:10:27Speaker 6: swear I was not drinking with Amy Acton.
- 1:10:30Speaker 3: You're not running for office either, Jay.
- 1:10:33Speaker 14: That's true.
- 1:10:34Speaker 3: I'm sure I probably sound drunk from time to time
- 1:10:36Speaker 3: here on the morning show as well, but you try
- 1:10:37Speaker 3: it four hours a day, five days a week without
- 1:10:39Speaker 3: screwing up. It can't be done.
- 1:10:42Speaker 10: It can't be done.
- 1:10:44Speaker 6: Plus that getting up at 3 o'clock in the morning. Oh,
- 1:10:47Speaker 6: if only.
- 1:10:47Speaker 3: You're giving me an extra half-hour bedtime there, Jay? No, 2.30. Anyway,
- 1:10:52Speaker 3: pivoting over from November 10th. Remember, Inside Doge on November 10th,
- 1:10:55Speaker 3: 7 p.m., login only. That's going to be a great one.
- 1:10:58Speaker 3: He's going to have some mind-blowing revelations on that. Pivoting
- 1:11:01Speaker 3: over November 12th, what's this one?
- 1:11:05Speaker 6: Well, two speakers. First, our Take 20, Mike Odioso. I
- 1:11:08Speaker 6: believe you know him.
- 1:11:09Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, he's a good man.
- 1:11:09Speaker 6: He's in the state legislature. He's a good man, and
- 1:11:12Speaker 6: he will be giving us the Ohio State Legislature update.
- 1:11:16Speaker 6: There is a lot of legislature. Now that the election
- 1:11:19Speaker 6: season will be over, we can kind of look at
- 1:11:21Speaker 6: where our Ohio Congress is going to be moving forward
- 1:11:26Speaker 6: in the future. And then we'll have Tom Hagedorn, who's
- 1:11:30Speaker 6: one of our board members. He is going to talk
- 1:11:33Speaker 6: a little bit about our incredible universe. Between the Hubble
- 1:11:36Speaker 6: telescope and everything that we've been learning with these long-range telescopes,
- 1:11:42Speaker 6: He's going to give us kind of an astronomy and
- 1:11:46Speaker 6: science background of the universe. And I'm always fascinated by
- 1:11:50Speaker 6: this kind of stuff. He'll have some great pictures to show.
- 1:11:53Speaker 4: Us, too.
- 1:11:54Speaker 3: And they just discovered another planet outside of Pluto. I
- 1:11:57Speaker 3: read this article this morning. I think it was on
- 1:11:59Speaker 3: Fox News. So there's another celestial body out there somewhere
- 1:12:02Speaker 3: between 400 and 900 miles wide outside of Pluto's orbit.
- 1:12:06Speaker 3: So the ever-evolving understanding of the universe, it is fascinating
- 1:12:10Speaker 3: and mind-blowing, too.
- 1:12:13Speaker 6: Pluto is a planetoid, no longer a planet.
- 1:12:15Speaker 3: Yeah, whatever. It's outside of the realm of Pluto, and
- 1:12:19Speaker 3: we had never found it before. So there it is
- 1:12:21Speaker 3: for all to see. I guess you need a high-powered
- 1:12:22Speaker 3: telescope on some remote mountain in Chile or whatever. But
- 1:12:26Speaker 3: you can read about that independently. Maybe he'll comment on that.
- 1:12:30Speaker 6: And then I guess November 17th, Thursday, in person, we'll
- 1:12:34Speaker 6: have Mike Mercer, our executive director, who is going to
- 1:12:37Speaker 6: talk about why George Martin is called the fifth beetle.
- 1:12:40Speaker 6: This should be a really great one to come in
- 1:12:42Speaker 6: person to hear.
- 1:12:43Speaker 10: There'll be a lot of music.
- 1:12:44Speaker 6: There'll be a lot of pictures. And Mike is really
- 1:12:49Speaker 6: just very knowledgeable about this. He's done a lot of
- 1:12:51Speaker 6: research on this. He's been following George Martin and the
- 1:12:55Speaker 6: Beatles for a long time. So this should be a
- 1:12:58Speaker 6: great lecture. If you like music at all, if you
- 1:13:00Speaker 6: like the Beatles at all, this will be good for you.
- 1:13:03Speaker 3: I'm surprised Reginald isn't doing that one. Is he a
- 1:13:05Speaker 3: huge Beatles guy?
- 1:13:08Speaker 6: You know, that's how it got approved.
- 1:13:11Speaker 3: I got it. I figured it. Dan's fingerprints had to
- 1:13:15Speaker 3: be on that one. Good morning, Dan Reginald.
- 1:13:18Speaker 6: But we're not sure if he's going to be in
- 1:13:20Speaker 6: town any one particular day. He'll be coming in town
- 1:13:23Speaker 6: soon after the election.
- 1:13:25Speaker 12: I don't know how long.
- 1:13:26Speaker 3: Okay. November 19th?
- 1:13:28Speaker 6: I've got more coming November 19th. That's a really good one.
- 1:13:32Speaker 6: That will be Captain Stephen Johnson will be speaking about
- 1:13:36Speaker 6: remembering 9-11, a firsthand account from the Pentagon. He was
- 1:13:40Speaker 6: working in the Pentagon on the day of 9-11. That
- 1:13:43Speaker 6: plane came and almost hit his office, and he was
- 1:13:46Speaker 6: in the D-ring. They have five rings of a building
- 1:13:51Speaker 6: there at the Pentagon. So it's a great lecture. He
- 1:13:55Speaker 6: has pictures from before and after and about our response.
- 1:14:00Speaker 6: It's really very thrilling, I think, his speech. And you
- 1:14:06Speaker 6: definitely got to hear it. It's moving.
- 1:14:08Speaker 3: I'm sure it is.
- 1:14:09Speaker 6: And not to forget, our first one is Mission Ready,
- 1:14:13Speaker 6: Testosterone and Men's Health in the Military.
- 1:14:16Speaker 2: Dr.
- 1:14:17Speaker 6: Michael Addy, who works at your wellness center with Dr.
- 1:14:21Speaker 6: William Lovett, has now been doing this kind of medicine
- 1:14:25Speaker 6: for a long time. He's going to be talking about
- 1:14:27Speaker 6: testosterone and the men's health in the military, because I
- 1:14:29Speaker 6: don't know if you all heard this.
- 1:14:30Speaker 3: Yeah, egg zest.
- 1:14:34Speaker 6: Yeah, Pete Hexath is now testing the testosterone levels of
- 1:14:37Speaker 6: our entire military to see if they need help there.
- 1:14:41Speaker 6: So he is offering, it says that testosterone placement theory
- 1:14:46Speaker 6: offers critical advantages for military personnel by directly counteracting operator syndrome,
- 1:14:52Speaker 6: a cluster of chronic health issues caused by high stress deployments.
- 1:14:56Speaker 6: severe sleep deprivation, intense blast exposures. So that's an interesting
- 1:15:01Speaker 6: thing they're trying to do in the Department of War,
- 1:15:04Speaker 6: and we're going to hear all about it from our
- 1:15:06Speaker 6: own local expert, Dr.
- 1:15:07Speaker 14: Michael Addy.
- 1:15:08Speaker 3: Should be good. Probably boosts their libidos across the board.
- 1:15:11Speaker 3: I don't know if that's a good thing or a
- 1:15:12Speaker 3: bad thing in wartime. Anyway, Dr. J., and finally, Mike
- 1:15:16Speaker 3: Wilson stepping up with some booze on December 3rd. Bourbon tasting.
- 1:15:20Speaker 9: Yes.
- 1:15:21Speaker 6: You may love to get Mike into your show today.
- 1:15:23Speaker 6: You two can talk about bourbon a little bit. That'll
- 1:15:25Speaker 6: be December 3rd in person, but not at the Scarlet
- 1:15:28Speaker 6: Oak Theater.
- 1:15:30Speaker 12: Nope.
- 1:15:30Speaker 6: It will be at the Cincinnati Krav Maga Gym. That's
- 1:15:34Speaker 6: on 1001 Alliance Road. That's in Blue Ash. It's very
- 1:15:37Speaker 6: easy to get to. And we will be learning about bourbon.
- 1:15:41Speaker 6: We will be watching about bourbon. We will be smelling bourbon.
- 1:15:45Speaker 6: And I think we will definitely be tasting bourbon.
- 1:15:48Speaker 3: I'm sure you will. And you're going to be at
- 1:15:50Speaker 3: that one, aren't you, Jay?
- 1:15:52Speaker 6: Oh, I will definitely be there. In fact, I've got
- 1:15:54Speaker 6: to get my registration in. Only the first people who register,
- 1:15:58Speaker 6: the first 50 people who register for the December 3rd
- 1:16:02Speaker 6: Bourbon Tasting will be able to get in. So if
- 1:16:05Speaker 6: all 50 sell out, maybe we can do something and
- 1:16:08Speaker 6: get a couple more chairs there. but it should be fun. Uh,
- 1:16:11Speaker 6: we thank so much, uh, the Cincinnati crowd McGough for
- 1:16:13Speaker 6: hosting it because, you know, Scarlet Oaks just doesn't want
- 1:16:16Speaker 6: us to have a bunch of bourbon bottles in their school.
- 1:16:18Speaker 6: I can't understand why, but. All right.
- 1:16:21Speaker 3: Well, maybe we'll learn some tips on how to beat
- 1:16:23Speaker 3: the crap out of someone since we'll be at the
- 1:16:24Speaker 3: Cincinnati crowd McGough facility. It's all there at empower you america.org.
- 1:16:28Speaker 3: Let's make sure you register ahead of time, some fascinating classes.
- 1:16:31Speaker 3: And thanks as always to Dan Regan, all the founder
- 1:16:33Speaker 3: of empower you America, please participate and tell your friends
- 1:16:36Speaker 3: about it. It's wonderful education opportunities. It doesn't cost you
- 1:16:38Speaker 3: any money and, You'll find out you'll learn a lot.
- 1:16:40Speaker 3: I can't wait for that Doge one, man. I'm telling you. Jay,
- 1:16:43Speaker 3: thank you so much for what you do and appreciate
- 1:16:45Speaker 3: your role in empoweryouamerica.org. And we'll talk again with the
- 1:16:49Speaker 3: list down the road.

- 1:16:54Speaker 3: I'm glad you're going to be there, Jay. I'm looking
- 1:16:56Speaker 3: forward to having a couple. I know at least two
- 1:16:58Speaker 3: people are going to be there, you and Drew Pappas.
- 1:17:00Speaker 3: Hopefully we'll be in a celebratory mood, but if not,
- 1:17:03Speaker 3: got some company to, well, cry in our beers over.
- 1:17:06Speaker 3: God bless you, Jay. 7.15 right now. Don't go away.
- 1:17:08Speaker 3: We've got Patriot Jeff and Jennifer on the phone. You
- 1:17:11Speaker 3: can call today. 719-55-KRC-D Talk Station, 513-749-5500, 800-823-5. Jeff, hold
- 1:17:21Speaker 3: on a second. Joe Strecker said, hold, take Jennifer's call.
- 1:17:24Speaker 3: She's at a polling place, got an update. Jennifer, thanks
- 1:17:26Speaker 3: for calling this morning. Welcome to the morning show.
- 1:17:29Speaker 14: Good morning.
- 1:17:29Speaker 3: Yeah, go ahead.
- 1:17:34Speaker 10: Green Township was as crowded as a presidential election.
- 1:17:38Speaker 6: This morning.
- 1:17:39Speaker 7: Wow.
- 1:17:40Speaker 6: So big numbers at my polling place, which is not usual.
- 1:17:44Speaker 5: And my daughter from Hancock County said.
- 1:17:46Speaker 6: The same thing up there.
- 1:17:47Speaker 3: Did you get a sense of whether those were red
- 1:17:49Speaker 3: voters or blue voters, Jennifer? I did not.
- 1:17:52Speaker 6: I was hoping to, but I did not.
- 1:17:54Speaker 12: I know.
- 1:17:56Speaker 3: You can't pick a side out of a crowd necessarily,
- 1:17:59Speaker 3: can you? Although I would heavily bet on if it's
- 1:18:01Speaker 3: a blue hair, I'm going with probably Democrat. But beyond that,
- 1:18:05Speaker 3: There's no outward ability to recognize an R or a D,
- 1:18:08Speaker 3: but I'm glad to hear that it was really crowded.
- 1:18:11Speaker 3: Was it a smooth process? Did they at least get
- 1:18:13Speaker 3: you through quickly?
- 1:18:15Speaker 6: Yeah, they opened right on time. Big, long line. They
- 1:18:19Speaker 6: were working pretty well.
- 1:18:20Speaker 3: Good. And salute to the poll workers out there. God
- 1:18:22Speaker 3: bless each and every one of you, regardless of political strike. Jennifer,
- 1:18:25Speaker 3: thank you so much. Are you optimistic or are you pessimistic?
- 1:18:30Speaker 3: Are you optimistic or pessimistic?
- 1:18:33Speaker 6: I'm always optimistic.
- 1:18:35Speaker 3: Listen, that's what I want to hear. I want to
- 1:18:37Speaker 3: hear optimism. I'm so gloom and doomy. I'm surrounded by
- 1:18:41Speaker 3: articles and polls that say this is a waste of time. No,
- 1:18:44Speaker 3: it's not. Listen to Jennifer. She's positive. Everybody's showing up
- 1:18:48Speaker 3: to the polls. We can stop this steal. if we
- 1:18:50Speaker 3: want to call it that or just stop this so-called
- 1:18:52Speaker 3: blue wave just by well exceeding our normal expectations of
- 1:18:57Speaker 3: low voter turn up jeff welcome to the morning show
- 1:19:00Speaker 3: thanks for holding my friend.
- 1:19:03Speaker 10: Good morning, Brian. As always, you and Joe are true patriots, buddy.
- 1:19:08Speaker 3: I sure appreciate hearing that, Jeff, as always.
- 1:19:11Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:19:12Speaker 10: I just wanted to remind everybody that– and it's not
- 1:19:15Speaker 10: really hard to think about if you just put your
- 1:19:18Speaker 10: mind to it. I mean, even if you're not thrilled
- 1:19:25Speaker 10: with either person that's out there to vote for, I mean–
- 1:19:32Speaker 10: People act like that high gas prices, for instance, is
- 1:19:37Speaker 10: a bad thing. And granted, it is. But who's the
- 1:19:42Speaker 10: party who has been promoting $ 6 and $ 9 gasoline for
- 1:19:47Speaker 10: the last 20 or 30 years? I mean, they want
- 1:19:52Speaker 10: high gas prices. They might point to it and say,
- 1:19:55Speaker 10: orange man bad. But that's not the point. You guys
- 1:19:59Speaker 10: always have gas prices. And then when you sit there
- 1:20:03Speaker 10: and think about anything else on the overall thoughts for
- 1:20:11Speaker 10: your family and your community, I mean, so far we've
- 1:20:15Speaker 10: seen one party on the side of criminals. We've seen
- 1:20:21Speaker 10: another party on the side of victims. I mean, I
- 1:20:25Speaker 10: just can't even imagine how anyone could vote– democrat over
- 1:20:30Speaker 10: what we've seen on the internet and with our.
- 1:20:34Speaker 3: Own eyes yeah um men competing against women in sports
- 1:20:37Speaker 3: genital mutilation uh depriving parents of the opportunity to know
- 1:20:41Speaker 3: what gender their child thinks he or she is i
- 1:20:44Speaker 3: mean the list is seemingly endless and to your point
- 1:20:46Speaker 3: and i read that op-ed piece this morning or at
- 1:20:48Speaker 3: least gleaned from it uh the increased oil and gas
- 1:20:51Speaker 3: prices political opportunity for the Today's increased oil and gas
- 1:20:57Speaker 3: prices fulfill Democrats' underlying climate change policy goals. Higher prices,
- 1:21:01Speaker 3: reduced demand, using less fossil fuel, exactly what Democrats' climate
- 1:21:04Speaker 3: change agenda wanted and sought until increased prices in order
- 1:21:09Speaker 3: to their political advantage because people forget that the platform
- 1:21:12Speaker 3: that they ran on for so long was back to Obama.
- 1:21:15Speaker 3: The price of gasoline will necessarily increase. It was more
- 1:21:18Speaker 3: expensive under Joe Biden than it is now. How come
- 1:21:20Speaker 3: he wasn't held accountable? Maybe he was held accountable. He didn't. Well,
- 1:21:23Speaker 3: he bowed out of the race. But of course, Kamala
- 1:21:25Speaker 3: Harris being kind of like Amy Acton, not a viable candidate.
- 1:21:28Speaker 3: But still, we've been through this before. They want higher
- 1:21:32Speaker 3: gas prices. You're voting to have this go past the
- 1:21:35Speaker 3: economic calamity that the war has brought us for a
- 1:21:38Speaker 3: time being.
- 1:21:39Speaker 10: Right. And what I think is extremely showing is when
- 1:21:44Speaker 10: some of their own party are now turning on them,
- 1:21:48Speaker 10: even if it will cost them their careers because they
- 1:21:52Speaker 10: just can't put up with the socialism. I mean, some
- 1:21:55Speaker 10: of the really major things that they're starting to dabble
- 1:21:59Speaker 10: in is just like totally insane.
- 1:22:02Speaker 12: And yet.
- 1:22:03Speaker 10: You know, you don't you see a few of them
- 1:22:06Speaker 10: just sit there and throw up their hands and say,
- 1:22:08Speaker 10: you know, I don't really care if I destroy my
- 1:22:11Speaker 10: political career. I can't stand with a socialist.
- 1:22:15Speaker 3: A Muslim, anti-Semitic. I mean, yeah, that was Haley Stevens.
- 1:22:20Speaker 3: That's they ostracized her. They chucked her out of the
- 1:22:23Speaker 3: Michigan Democratic Party the other day because she endorsed Mike Rogers. Well,
- 1:22:27Speaker 3: she's still a Democrat. They will not have anyone who dissents.
- 1:22:30Speaker 3: If you don't want to be full-on anti-Semite, you don't
- 1:22:33Speaker 3: want to be full-on socialist in the Democratic Party, they're
- 1:22:36Speaker 3: going to eat you alive.
- 1:22:37Speaker 14: Oh, I know.
- 1:22:38Speaker 10: And it's just getting more violent with their rhetoric, and
- 1:22:43Speaker 10: they just don't seem to even care when people are attacked,
- 1:22:46Speaker 10: when people are, you know, incriminated.
- 1:22:49Speaker 14: Shot?
- 1:22:51Speaker 10: Yeah. I mean, it's just, I mean, and police are
- 1:22:54Speaker 10: attacked and they won't even come out and, or, you know,
- 1:23:00Speaker 10: it's just, it's just getting to be madness. And, and,
- 1:23:03Speaker 10: and I'll tell them, I'll finish with one more thing
- 1:23:06Speaker 10: that you and I've talked about before. Guys, when you
- 1:23:09Speaker 10: go into that booth or, well, whatever it's called nowadays, but, um,
- 1:23:14Speaker 10: That's just between you and the piece of paper. OK,
- 1:23:18Speaker 10: you can tell your friends all day long. I would
- 1:23:20Speaker 10: never vote for Orange Man or I'd never vote for
- 1:23:23Speaker 10: a Republican or I'd never vote for a conservative. But,
- 1:23:27Speaker 10: you know, just do what you know to be right.
- 1:23:31Speaker 10: And then you can still be you know, you can
- 1:23:33Speaker 10: still hang out with the purple hairs and the. and
- 1:23:36Speaker 10: the people that want to spend all our money and
- 1:23:40Speaker 10: don't want us to stop their corruption and everything else.
- 1:23:45Speaker 10: But you can still vote for what's going to actually
- 1:23:48Speaker 10: help you and your family and your community get a
- 1:23:51Speaker 10: handle on all this craziness that is just tearing us
- 1:23:55Speaker 10: all apart.
- 1:23:58Speaker 2: I mean, I.
- 1:24:01Speaker 10: Understand Vivek's never been a politician, but then again, That's
- 1:24:06Speaker 10: really what we need, guys. I mean, we really are
- 1:24:09Speaker 10: done with these people that have been in office for
- 1:24:12Speaker 10: 20 or 30 or 40 years, and they haven't done
- 1:24:14Speaker 10: a damn thing for anybody.
- 1:24:18Speaker 3: Well, and I just really have to observe. Amy Acton's
- 1:24:20Speaker 3: not a politician either. She even says, I'm a doctor. Well,
- 1:24:23Speaker 3: sort of, kind of. But you also were an incompetent
- 1:24:26Speaker 3: representative in terms of being the medical director. You sucked
- 1:24:29Speaker 3: at the job. Meaning what you did for the state
- 1:24:32Speaker 3: of Ohio was damaging, and now you're running on that record?
- 1:24:36Speaker 3: Lord Almighty. Jeff, I don't know what else to say, brother.
- 1:24:38Speaker 3: I do appreciate your call, man. I really do. Don't
- 1:24:41Speaker 3: go away. We've got more to talk about with Tom Zawistowski,
- 1:24:43Speaker 3: We The People Convention, and more calls coming up, plus
- 1:24:45Speaker 3: the Inside Scoop and the Daniel Davis Deep Dive in
- 1:24:47Speaker 3: the 8 o'clock hour. Stick around for all that, please.
- 1:24:51Speaker 3: And get in touch with USA Insulation. 731-55-KRC-D Talk Station.
- 1:24:56Speaker 3: Happy Election Day. Get out and vote. Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana,
- 1:24:59Speaker 3: the polls are open, waiting for you to show up
- 1:25:01Speaker 3: and get in line with everybody else. If Jennifer's right,
- 1:25:03Speaker 3: big turnout going on right now. It could be different
- 1:25:05Speaker 3: in your area, but you got to, well, a liberty
- 1:25:07Speaker 3: requires citizens who are informed and engaged. That says it
- 1:25:11Speaker 3: right there, wethepeopleconvention.org. That's from Tom Zawistowski. Tom, isn't that right?
- 1:25:15Speaker 3: informed and engaged.
- 1:25:16Speaker 7: Absolutely. Absolutely right. And boy, I'm so excited to be
- 1:25:20Speaker 7: with you today on what I think is going to
- 1:25:22Speaker 7: be one of the greatest days in American history. I'm
- 1:25:25Speaker 7: so glad to be alive and to be able to
- 1:25:28Speaker 7: participate and to see what I think is going to
- 1:25:31Speaker 7: be an army. of people, of my fellow citizens who
- 1:25:35Speaker 7: voted for Trump in 2016, 2020, 2024, marching to the
- 1:25:41Speaker 7: polls to vote for every Republican on the ballot, not
- 1:25:45Speaker 7: because we love Republicans, but because we love our country
- 1:25:48Speaker 7: and we want to continue the Make America Great agenda
- 1:25:53Speaker 7: we started. And the way to do that is to
- 1:25:56Speaker 7: turn out and vote. And I'm so excited about what's
- 1:25:59Speaker 7: going to happen today.
- 1:26:00Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not the only one to observe this and
- 1:26:02Speaker 3: point it out. I think the same thing happened when
- 1:26:04Speaker 3: Trump got elected again. It was overwhelming numbers have a
- 1:26:08Speaker 3: way of defeating any illegal, untoward activity out there in
- 1:26:12Speaker 3: terms of voting. If you have illegal immigrants voting, for example,
- 1:26:16Speaker 3: there's only a finite number of those. There are a
- 1:26:18Speaker 3: greater number of registered conservatives and independents out there that
- 1:26:22Speaker 3: can defeat the wave potentially fraudulent voting. I mean, so
- 1:26:26Speaker 3: the extent you believe it's going on, and I've listed
- 1:26:28Speaker 3: a whole bunch of different holes in the election process
- 1:26:32Speaker 3: and all these blue states that could be easily fixed,
- 1:26:35Speaker 3: they just don't want to fix them, which suggests they
- 1:26:38Speaker 3: welcome these illegal votes. We can defeat that by sheer numbers, Tom.
- 1:26:43Speaker 3: Is that not correct or am I wrong?
- 1:26:45Speaker 7: Yeah, you are absolutely correct. And I want everyone listening
- 1:26:49Speaker 7: to realize this is a very different situation than we
- 1:26:52Speaker 7: have been in for the last 25 years. For the
- 1:26:55Speaker 7: last 25 years, we've kind of been in the minority
- 1:26:58Speaker 7: trying to convince our fellow citizens, trying to, you know,
- 1:27:01Speaker 7: just kind of push forward a Make America Great agenda.
- 1:27:05Speaker 7: But that's not the case today. Today, we are in charge.
- 1:27:10Speaker 7: If we show up and vote, it's over. It's not
- 1:27:13Speaker 7: even close. And so why wouldn't you do that? After
- 1:27:17Speaker 7: all that we've done to get to this point, after
- 1:27:19Speaker 7: you see, despite the gas prices, the economy is booming.
- 1:27:23Speaker 7: Things are definitely better. And you vote today to keep
- 1:27:27Speaker 7: going forward and not to go back. I just think
- 1:27:30Speaker 7: people have gotten that message. Thanks to you. Thanks to
- 1:27:34Speaker 7: so many others. And they're going to do it. And
- 1:27:36Speaker 7: you just got a report saying they're busy. I've just
- 1:27:39Speaker 7: gotten three texts since we started talking saying it's busy
- 1:27:43Speaker 7: at my polling location. That's what we want to hear.
- 1:27:46Speaker 3: It is indeed. And, you know, I just keep going
- 1:27:49Speaker 3: back to issues like simple public safety. embracing and supporting
- 1:27:54Speaker 3: law enforcement. I don't understand how this bears a political stripe, Tom.
- 1:27:58Speaker 3: I understand among certain areas of the electorate that they
- 1:28:01Speaker 3: think police are inherently evil or bad, but every single
- 1:28:05Speaker 3: neighborhood has some measure of crime, and every single neighborhood
- 1:28:09Speaker 3: that has a significant crime, high crime, would probably welcome
- 1:28:15Speaker 3: an additional police force and embrace police because they're there
- 1:28:19Speaker 3: to get the bad guys out. I mean, the Democrats
- 1:28:22Speaker 3: are the party of defund the police. I mean, they're
- 1:28:24Speaker 3: the ones that are behind this entire effort. Rethink, reimagine.
- 1:28:30Speaker 3: If I'm a Democrat living in a high-crime Democrat, predominantly
- 1:28:33Speaker 3: Democrat neighborhood, I'm still going to want law enforcement. Isn't
- 1:28:36Speaker 3: that just common sense, Tom?
- 1:28:38Speaker 7: Well, there you go. It's common sense. sense versus crazy.
- 1:28:41Speaker 7: That's a great mantra. And again, under Donald Trump, Crime
- 1:28:46Speaker 7: rates are the lowest ever in American history. So why
- 1:28:50Speaker 7: wouldn't you want more of that? And I think people
- 1:28:52Speaker 7: do want more of that. I think that's what they
- 1:28:54Speaker 7: are going to vote for. They're not interested in this
- 1:28:58Speaker 7: college theory nonsense about how we're just too hard on
- 1:29:03Speaker 7: criminals and we need to let them out and give
- 1:29:06Speaker 7: them 15 chances instead of two chances. We aren't buying that.
- 1:29:10Speaker 7: Common sense Americans understand that, you know, we've got to
- 1:29:14Speaker 7: have law and order. We've got to have a pro-business economy.
- 1:29:18Speaker 7: We've got to stop the invasion. I mean, not only
- 1:29:21Speaker 7: are they about to fund the police, but they've gone further.
- 1:29:24Speaker 7: Now they want to defund ICE.
- 1:29:25Speaker 14: Right?
- 1:29:26Speaker 7: Yeah. So let's defund all law enforcement. And then DSA
- 1:29:29Speaker 7: wants to defund the Pentagon. So let's have no ability
- 1:29:33Speaker 7: to enforce anything anywhere. And, oh, yeah, how's that going
- 1:29:36Speaker 7: to work out? It's going to work out like Somalia.
- 1:29:38Speaker 7: That's what it's going to work out like. We ain't Somalia.
- 1:29:41Speaker 7: We're not France. We're the United States. And today the
- 1:29:44Speaker 7: American people are going to prove that.
- 1:29:46Speaker 3: WeThePeopleConvention.org. We'll talk with Tom Zalastowski coming to the next segment.
- 1:29:49Speaker 3: Pause for a moment while I remind you that you
- 1:29:51Speaker 3: need to think about your safety. Listen, I don't know
- 1:29:53Speaker 3: who doesn't. See the talk stations. 740-55-KRC-D Talk Station. Yeah, well,
- 1:29:59Speaker 3: European Union burns and destroys itself under the weight of
- 1:30:03Speaker 3: its socialist policies, all brought to you by the DSA
- 1:30:06Speaker 3: here in America. They want the same thing they have there. Clearly,
- 1:30:09Speaker 3: it's not affordable. There's no question about it. And that's
- 1:30:12Speaker 3: the party of Medicare for All. They're pushing Medicare for
- 1:30:15Speaker 3: All on the Democrat side, Tom. One of many issues
- 1:30:17Speaker 3: that they own, open borders, gender fluidity, men playing against
- 1:30:20Speaker 3: women in sports, defunding the police. Uh, antisemitism seem has
- 1:30:25Speaker 3: taken a big hold in the democratic party too. Hopefully
- 1:30:27Speaker 3: this will, uh, well on the future basis going forward,
- 1:30:30Speaker 3: get my Jewish friends who always have voted Democrat to
- 1:30:33Speaker 3: maybe come over to the logical side of the equation,
- 1:30:35Speaker 3: vote Republican. That may very well happen, but Medicare for
- 1:30:38Speaker 3: all time, you know, you can say in a factual vacuum, well, sure.
- 1:30:41Speaker 3: It's great. Everybody's going to have medical coverage. It hasn't
- 1:30:44Speaker 3: worked in all the countries that have tried it. Trying
- 1:30:46Speaker 3: to get an appointment and see a physician is virtually
- 1:30:49Speaker 3: impossible because very little incentive for physicians to enter into
- 1:30:52Speaker 3: the practice of medicine under that system. And bottom line,
- 1:30:55Speaker 3: the bottom line, Tom, it's trillions, 40 plus trillion over
- 1:31:00Speaker 3: 10 years. It's the size of our entire national debt
- 1:31:04Speaker 3: that you like it and think it sounds good. You
- 1:31:07Speaker 3: got to understand, speaking about citizens who are informed, you
- 1:31:12Speaker 3: need to be informed that it's an impossible achievement given
- 1:31:14Speaker 3: the cost. We are so far in debt, we're going
- 1:31:17Speaker 3: to end up tanking the fiat currency Tom and maybe
- 1:31:19Speaker 3: that's what they want I don't know.
- 1:31:22Speaker 7: Well, they do. I mean, listen, their goal, they state
- 1:31:25Speaker 7: it on their website. Their goal is the destruction of
- 1:31:28Speaker 7: the United States. Their goal is to get rid of
- 1:31:30Speaker 7: the Constitution, the Supreme Court, get rid of the Senate.
- 1:31:33Speaker 7: They want to destroy our country. And for Barack Obama
- 1:31:36Speaker 7: to come to Ohio and talk about Medicare for all,
- 1:31:40Speaker 7: what's wrong with that? Why couldn't somebody support that? Because
- 1:31:44Speaker 7: you gave us Obamacare that nearly bankrupted us. Look at
- 1:31:48Speaker 7: what that's done. Look at all the fraud that we've
- 1:31:50Speaker 7: seen in that. So listen, it's real simple, folks. It's
- 1:31:55Speaker 7: not about these individual issues. Like I heard Drew talking
- 1:31:58Speaker 7: earlier on the show with you about, you know, you
- 1:32:00Speaker 7: have a problem with this candidate or that candidate. It's
- 1:32:03Speaker 7: way bigger than that. It's about an ideology. It's about,
- 1:32:07Speaker 7: do you believe in individual liberty, freedom, and prosperity and
- 1:32:11Speaker 7: moving forward? Or do you believe in state control like
- 1:32:15Speaker 7: they have in Europe and in France? And you can
- 1:32:18Speaker 7: see what's happening there. Don't be fooled. And so, you know, today,
- 1:32:22Speaker 7: speaking of don't be fooled, there's a couple things going
- 1:32:25Speaker 7: on I want to remind people about. First of all,
- 1:32:28Speaker 7: a lot of people you and I know are out
- 1:32:30Speaker 7: working right now at the polls and and listening to
- 1:32:33Speaker 7: this radio show, and many are giving out slate cards
- 1:32:36Speaker 7: and things. I want to give you a tip. If
- 1:32:38Speaker 7: you're out there at the polls, don't just give them
- 1:32:40Speaker 7: a slate card going in. When people come out, say, hey,
- 1:32:44Speaker 7: thanks for voting. Make sure you call your family and
- 1:32:47Speaker 7: friends and make sure they vote today as well. That's
- 1:32:50Speaker 7: a great way to get a double hit there when
- 1:32:52Speaker 7: you're at the polls. For our senior citizen friends, You know,
- 1:32:55Speaker 7: a lot of our friends, a lot of people in
- 1:32:57Speaker 7: my area of age are using walkers and canes. It's
- 1:33:01Speaker 7: a little hard to get around. And you kind of say, boy,
- 1:33:04Speaker 7: I'd like to vote, but I don't think I can.
- 1:33:06Speaker 7: We forget. We have a thing called curbside service. You
- 1:33:10Speaker 7: can pull up to your polling location, have whoever's driving
- 1:33:14Speaker 7: you go in and say, can you come out and
- 1:33:17Speaker 7: let my mother or my brother or my father vote curbside?
- 1:33:20Speaker 7: And they will bring out a ballot to you and
- 1:33:22Speaker 7: you can vote. Don't let it deter you. You've got
- 1:33:25Speaker 7: to show up. And then you and I talked a lot, Brian,
- 1:33:28Speaker 7: about the disgruntled Republicans, the people who said, I'm not
- 1:33:32Speaker 7: going to vote this election. I'm going to teach the
- 1:33:33Speaker 7: Republicans a lesson this election. Well, there's a Democrat dirty
- 1:33:39Speaker 7: trick that's being played on you. Don't fall for it.
- 1:33:43Speaker 7: I got a beautiful flyer in the mail for this
- 1:33:47Speaker 7: Bill Redpath, the libertarian candidate running for Senate, right? And
- 1:33:51Speaker 7: then I got text messages yesterday. And I'm thinking, where's
- 1:33:55Speaker 7: this guy getting his money? So I start to do
- 1:33:58Speaker 7: some research. Oh, where's he getting his money? Well, there's
- 1:34:02Speaker 7: this group called the Buckeye Pack, that Buckeye Freedom Pack
- 1:34:07Speaker 7: that didn't exist until like two weeks ago and had
- 1:34:11Speaker 7: raised no money up till October 16th. But now they
- 1:34:16Speaker 7: spent $ 1. 9 million promoting Redpath and going against Houston. Now,
- 1:34:24Speaker 7: that tells me two things. One, if you are a
- 1:34:26Speaker 7: disgruntled Republican, they're targeting you, and you need to understand
- 1:34:30Speaker 7: a vote for Redpath, who may have some good things
- 1:34:33Speaker 7: that you like and all that, is a vote for
- 1:34:36Speaker 7: Sherrod Brown. It's a vote for the Democrat.
- 1:34:39Speaker 12: It is.
- 1:34:39Speaker 7: Number two, what you need to understand... is that these
- 1:34:43Speaker 7: people are connected to the thing that's going on in Alaska.
- 1:34:47Speaker 7: This Buckeye Freedom Pack has a treasurer who's tied together
- 1:34:52Speaker 7: with this Alaska pack, the Alaska Right, or a pack
- 1:34:57Speaker 7: called Right for Alaska Pack, and they're doing the same
- 1:35:00Speaker 7: thing with this fake candidate in Alaska. That's happening here
- 1:35:04Speaker 7: in Ohio. Here's the key. They wouldn't be doing it, Brian,
- 1:35:09Speaker 7: They wouldn't spend $ 2 million unless they thought Houston was
- 1:35:13Speaker 7: beating Brown head-to-head, and they had to get a couple
- 1:35:16Speaker 7: of people a few points to vote for the Libertarian
- 1:35:19Speaker 7: in order to win. That's a tell. Don't fall for it.
- 1:35:23Speaker 7: Don't vote for Redpath. Vote straight Republican.
- 1:35:25Speaker 3: Yeah, just shameless in their tactics, Tom. And I know
- 1:35:28Speaker 3: the Republicans' hands aren't clean across the board, but that
- 1:35:30Speaker 3: Alaska thing is just awful. It's quite revealing about the
- 1:35:34Speaker 3: depth to which the Democrats will sink in order to
- 1:35:37Speaker 3: win an election. They can't play fair. They can't argue
- 1:35:39Speaker 3: on the issue. So they've got to cheat. Going back
- 1:35:41Speaker 3: to the whole idea that there are voter rolls that
- 1:35:43Speaker 3: haven't been cleaned up in Democrat states, that there are
- 1:35:46Speaker 3: huge opportunities for folks to cheat in the election, you know,
- 1:35:49Speaker 3: just personally attesting, yeah, I'm an American citizen. I am
- 1:35:52Speaker 3: who I say I am, and that's just enough to
- 1:35:54Speaker 3: get you in to vote. I mean, all of these
- 1:35:55Speaker 3: things really are nefarious because they allow, well, They allow
- 1:36:00Speaker 3: the cheating to go on, and they endorse it. They
- 1:36:02Speaker 3: embrace it. I always go back to my time in Chicago.
- 1:36:04Speaker 3: The Democrats acknowledged openly that they were, well, cheaters. They
- 1:36:08Speaker 3: were engaging corruption all the time, but because it was
- 1:36:10Speaker 3: their corruption, they don't seem to care. That's exactly what's
- 1:36:12Speaker 3: going on in front of our very eyes. Yeah, we're
- 1:36:14Speaker 3: doing it. Screw you guys.
- 1:36:17Speaker 7: Well, and that's what's different this year, though. Everybody's got
- 1:36:20Speaker 7: to spread the story about Donald Trump offering a million-dollar
- 1:36:23Speaker 7: reward for tips that lead to convictions for election frauds.
- 1:36:27Speaker 7: That's awesome, because you don't think there's some of these
- 1:36:30Speaker 7: squirrely people who've been doing this for years and have
- 1:36:34Speaker 7: not gotten cut in on the gravy once the election's
- 1:36:37Speaker 7: over who might not turn in? Some of these Democrats
- 1:36:40Speaker 7: have been cheating? I can't wait to see how that
- 1:36:43Speaker 7: turns out. Everyone should spread that story because I want
- 1:36:46Speaker 7: lots of tips coming in. So yeah, they're going to cheat.
- 1:36:49Speaker 7: That tells you something. Two things I think it tells you.
- 1:36:52Speaker 7: Number one, they have no policies that anybody believes in.
- 1:36:56Speaker 7: If they had policies that people cared about, they could
- 1:36:59Speaker 7: run straight up elections and they can't. Number two, it
- 1:37:02Speaker 7: tells you that they don't really exist as a party.
- 1:37:06Speaker 7: They shouldn't have 50% of the Senate. They shouldn't have 50%
- 1:37:09Speaker 7: of the House. They don't have the following. So the
- 1:37:13Speaker 7: only way they got it, Brian, is they cheated. That's
- 1:37:16Speaker 7: why this is the day. Today is the day that
- 1:37:20Speaker 7: we win the war. that we destroy the democratic party.
- 1:37:24Speaker 7: The boats you're going to see at the end of
- 1:37:26Speaker 7: today are going to be stunning because the cheating will
- 1:37:29Speaker 7: be driven down and our turnout will be high. And
- 1:37:33Speaker 7: you're going to finally see they don't, they never had
- 1:37:36Speaker 7: the support they claim to have. They've been a fraud
- 1:37:39Speaker 7: all along.
- 1:37:40Speaker 3: Tom Zawistowski, will you do me a huge favor tomorrow?
- 1:37:43Speaker 3: If you're right, would you call me up and say,
- 1:37:45Speaker 3: I told you so.
- 1:37:47Speaker 7: I will indeed. I will indeed. And I'm telling you,
- 1:37:51Speaker 7: I believe in the American people. I know these people.
- 1:37:54Speaker 7: They're out working. I can't believe how hard our people
- 1:37:56Speaker 7: are working. They're making phone calls. They're knocking on doors.
- 1:37:59Speaker 7: You have AFP on. They're working their butts off. Tea
- 1:38:02Speaker 7: Party Patriots has made over one and a half million
- 1:38:06Speaker 7: text messages. The NRA is killing it. We're working hard.
- 1:38:10Speaker 7: We're the majority. We just need to show up. Everyone listening,
- 1:38:14Speaker 7: today's your day. Go out and win the game. It's
- 1:38:18Speaker 7: right there. Just go vote.
- 1:38:20Speaker 3: Yeah. Think about it. If you don't, Governor Amy Acton.
- 1:38:26Speaker 12: I know.
- 1:38:28Speaker 7: Can't be. Can't have it. If you don't, it's open borders.
- 1:38:33Speaker 7: It's the government telling you you have to use words
- 1:38:36Speaker 7: that you don't want to use. You're getting no promotions
- 1:38:40Speaker 7: or raises unless you're the right gender or whatever they decide.
- 1:38:44Speaker 7: It's the end of America as you know it. This
- 1:38:47Speaker 7: is not some small thing. They'll be a little different
- 1:38:50Speaker 7: than the Republicans. It couldn't be more different. They want
- 1:38:55Speaker 7: us to be communists. They're not just socialists. They're communists.
- 1:39:00Speaker 7: We want to be free. Today is when you defend
- 1:39:04Speaker 7: your freedom and liberty. Today, it is all you got
- 1:39:08Speaker 7: to do is go vote and get everyone you know
- 1:39:10Speaker 7: to do the same. We can do it. We will
- 1:39:13Speaker 7: do it. I'm confident. We're going to have a great
- 1:39:16Speaker 7: day today.
- 1:39:17Speaker 3: I appreciate your optimism more than you can imagine. Tom Zawistowski, wethepeopleconvention.org.
- 1:39:21Speaker 3: Check it out. Regularly check in on the website. He's
- 1:39:24Speaker 3: going to be around long after tomorrow, today. Regardless of
- 1:39:27Speaker 3: how it works out, keeping up the great work. Tom,
- 1:39:29Speaker 3: thank you for the hard fight you've been fighting, and
- 1:39:31Speaker 3: keep up the great work, my friend. I hope to
- 1:39:33Speaker 3: hear from you tomorrow.
- 1:39:35Speaker 7: I will call you, I promise.
- 1:39:37Speaker 3: God bless you, sir. Coming up at 7.50, 55KRC, The
- 1:39:39Speaker 3: Talk Station. 805 at 55KRC, The Talk Station. It's Tuesday,
- 1:39:46Speaker 3: of course. It's Election Day. Get out and vote. If
- 1:39:49Speaker 3: you heard that message yet this morning on the 55
- 1:39:51Speaker 3: KRC Morning Show, it's the time of week. We always
- 1:39:53Speaker 3: get the inside scoop from Breitbart News. Bookmark the site.
- 1:39:56Speaker 3: You'll do yourself a favor with that. B-R-E-I-T-B-A-R-T dot com.
- 1:40:00Speaker 3: Breitbart dot com. Joining us for the first time and
- 1:40:02Speaker 3: hopefully not the last, Breitbart News political reporter Olivia Rondo. Olivia,
- 1:40:06Speaker 3: it is a pleasure to have you on the 55
- 1:40:07Speaker 3: KRC Morning Show. Welcome.
- 1:40:09Speaker 6: Hey, good morning.
- 1:40:10Speaker 8: Thank you so much for having me. I appreciate it.
- 1:40:12Speaker 3: I will admit, and you're more than welcome, I will admit,
- 1:40:15Speaker 3: and I've got a lot of optimistic listeners. I've got
- 1:40:18Speaker 3: a lot of optimistic people. The reports are coming in
- 1:40:20Speaker 3: from our local polling places. Really strong turnout so far
- 1:40:26Speaker 3: this morning. A lot of people are coming out to vote.
- 1:40:28Speaker 3: Record early voting here in the state of Ohio, but
- 1:40:31Speaker 3: I am surrounded by and inundated with messaging all over
- 1:40:35Speaker 3: the place, not necessarily from Breitbart, but gloom and doom
- 1:40:37Speaker 3: for Republicans. Blue wave coming your way. I see Democratic
- 1:40:40Speaker 3: Socialists winning primaries and actually in polls ahead of what
- 1:40:44Speaker 3: I would argue are saner candidates. And I turn to
- 1:40:48Speaker 3: the state of Ohio where, to my dismay and absolute disbelief,
- 1:40:52Speaker 3: if you've been following the Ramaswamy-Acton race here for the
- 1:40:55Speaker 3: governor of the state of Ohio, she's been polling ahead
- 1:40:58Speaker 3: of Vivek Ramaswamy since the beginning. And I'm sorry, a
- 1:41:01Speaker 3: demonstrably incompetent woman failed in her only job, which was
- 1:41:05Speaker 3: the medical director of the state of Ohio, quit amid
- 1:41:08Speaker 3: some serious controversy, hasn't kept jobs for very long. And then,
- 1:41:12Speaker 3: of course, we have this swirling controversy with ad campaigns.
- 1:41:14Speaker 3: But Ramaswamy is a successful businessman who wants to benefit
- 1:41:20Speaker 3: the state of Ohio, and I don't understand it. What's
- 1:41:22Speaker 3: your take on that particular race? Do you think you've
- 1:41:24Speaker 3: been following it, Olivia?
- 1:41:25Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:41:26Speaker 8: Yeah, thanks for asking me. It is really hard to
- 1:41:29Speaker 8: see at this point why the polls are scaring people
- 1:41:32Speaker 8: so much. And I do understand to have a knee-jerk
- 1:41:36Speaker 8: reaction to seeing Vivek fall behind in the polling, but
- 1:41:39Speaker 8: I wouldn't pay attention to that as a voter in
- 1:41:41Speaker 8: Ohio if I was one. I would pay attention to
- 1:41:44Speaker 8: getting my fellow Republicans to turn out because the numbers show.
- 1:41:48Speaker 8: It's just a numbers game. If Republicans turn out in
- 1:41:50Speaker 8: the numbers that they have in Ohio, then Vivek will win.
- 1:41:53Speaker 8: If they don't, then he will lose. So I would
- 1:41:55Speaker 8: say ignore the polls, stay hopeful, stay in line, stay voting.
- 1:41:59Speaker 8: But there are enough Republicans in the state of Ohio
- 1:42:02Speaker 8: to win. So it really simply is a numbers game.
- 1:42:05Speaker 8: And I'm not one of these people that's not going
- 1:42:07Speaker 8: to acknowledge Vivek's ad that he admittedly spent $ 4 million
- 1:42:12Speaker 8: to place in an ad spend that was really not
- 1:42:16Speaker 8: well received by Democrats and by the general public that
- 1:42:20Speaker 8: featured Amy Acton's mother. But Amy Acton has way different
- 1:42:24Speaker 8: worse skeletons in her closet than trotting out her mother
- 1:42:27Speaker 8: that really should be focused on. She and her husband
- 1:42:30Speaker 8: got in a fight so bad a few years ago
- 1:42:31Speaker 8: that the police were called to her house and she
- 1:42:33Speaker 8: was saying that they were drunk and she didn't know
- 1:42:35Speaker 8: how much prescription medication she was on and she broke
- 1:42:37Speaker 8: a mirror and shattered the glass. It's just like, this
- 1:42:40Speaker 8: person doesn't seem like she's level-headed. We also need to
- 1:42:43Speaker 8: remember why she jumped from job to job to job
- 1:42:47Speaker 8: to job. I mean, we could talk about her terrible
- 1:42:50Speaker 8: record as Ohio's health director, but we should also point
- 1:42:53Speaker 8: out that she was in that job for less than
- 1:42:54Speaker 8: 16 months, not even a year and a half. it
- 1:42:57Speaker 8: was so controversial, her lockdown policies, that people were protesting
- 1:43:01Speaker 8: outside of her house. I think that we should not
- 1:43:04Speaker 8: have such a short memory on this and think, maybe
- 1:43:07Speaker 8: we should not have a COVID extremist for a governor,
- 1:43:10Speaker 8: even if I didn't like that advertisement.
- 1:43:12Speaker 14: True.
- 1:43:12Speaker 3: And she wasn't even qualified to make the determinations that
- 1:43:15Speaker 3: she made. She wasn't a virologist. She didn't do any
- 1:43:17Speaker 3: research papers or study virology or how diseases are transmitted.
- 1:43:21Speaker 3: It's laughable. And the other thing that I have been
- 1:43:23Speaker 3: banging the drum on since day one on this whole
- 1:43:26Speaker 3: affordability thing. Yeah, the price of gas is up, not
- 1:43:28Speaker 3: as much as under Biden, but why was it up
- 1:43:31Speaker 3: under Biden? And what do the Democrats promise? They promised
- 1:43:33Speaker 3: increase in the price of gasoline by way of legislation
- 1:43:36Speaker 3: and policy, not because economic forces interfered with it. This
- 1:43:40Speaker 3: is the gift that they wanted and campaigned on. Higher
- 1:43:43Speaker 3: price gas means less use, means less carbon dioxide, plant
- 1:43:47Speaker 3: food in the environment. Whatever nonsense they're pursuing, this is
- 1:43:51Speaker 3: what they will deliver on. I mean, they've already done it.
- 1:43:56Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 1:43:57Speaker 8: And she's a climate extremist. Vivek takes it the completely
- 1:44:01Speaker 8: opposite direction. You know, in Ohio, does she really think
- 1:44:04Speaker 8: she can get away with being a climate extremist when
- 1:44:06Speaker 8: Ramaswamy wants to open up and deregulate natural gas, wants
- 1:44:10Speaker 8: to deregulate fracking, wants to create jobs for, for Ohioans,
- 1:44:13Speaker 8: which will ultimately, I think lower the price of gasoline.
- 1:44:17Speaker 8: I mean, this is just kind of two plus two
- 1:44:19Speaker 8: equals four. But the Democrats have rallied all the support
- 1:44:22Speaker 8: around acting. I mean, she clearly is a strong candidate
- 1:44:25Speaker 8: for them, but I just don't think it is well earned.
- 1:44:28Speaker 8: And I think if you look at her extremist COVID
- 1:44:30Speaker 8: and climate policies, if she... decides to continue that train
- 1:44:37Speaker 8: of thought from 2020, I think it'll be really negative
- 1:44:40Speaker 8: for Ohio. And I think she is proving that she
- 1:44:42Speaker 8: will continue her COVID extremism if another thing like that arises,
- 1:44:45Speaker 8: because she has defended her actions and saying, well, I
- 1:44:49Speaker 8: shut down the county fairs because it was going to
- 1:44:52Speaker 8: kill people. And if she said that with the hindsight,
- 1:44:55Speaker 8: she said that on the campaign trail, she said that
- 1:44:57Speaker 8: with the hindsight that COVID is endemic, that people will
- 1:45:00Speaker 8: get it, that people will transmit it even with vaccinations
- 1:45:03Speaker 8: and boosters. So she's still justifying people are all going
- 1:45:07Speaker 8: to die if we open up the county fair, if
- 1:45:09Speaker 8: we open up the public schools because of COVID, even
- 1:45:11Speaker 8: though it's an endemic viral flu-like disease. And so- For
- 1:45:18Speaker 8: her to continue defending herself on that when she knew
- 1:45:20Speaker 8: she had protesters outside of her house, that basically forced
- 1:45:23Speaker 8: her out of office because she was such an extremist.
- 1:45:25Speaker 8: Just such a terrible look, but it's such a gift
- 1:45:27Speaker 8: to the Republicans for her to admit that she feels
- 1:45:29Speaker 8: like she did nothing wrong.
- 1:45:30Speaker 3: Well, and another gift to the Republicans in this race,
- 1:45:32Speaker 3: instead of everybody paying attention, her appearance in Toledo, stumbling around,
- 1:45:36Speaker 3: appearing not necessarily drunk, but coming across as if she's drunk.
- 1:45:40Speaker 3: And with the background that you just reminded my listening
- 1:45:42Speaker 3: audience about, she has had some run-ins involving liquor in
- 1:45:45Speaker 3: the past and police. You look at her and you think, okay,
- 1:45:48Speaker 3: Joe Rogan even commented on this. It made national news,
- 1:45:50Speaker 3: this pathetic opening. She's stumbling around. And he said, listen,
- 1:45:54Speaker 3: I've been around drunk people my whole life. I think
- 1:45:56Speaker 3: his dad owned a bar or something. I know what
- 1:45:57Speaker 3: they're like. And you can't look at her behavior and
- 1:46:01Speaker 3: not at least think maybe she was impaired. But he
- 1:46:04Speaker 3: pointed out it's almost worse if she wasn't because that's
- 1:46:08Speaker 3: the way she comes across and delivers herself. This is
- 1:46:11Speaker 3: going to be the figurehead for the state of Ohio
- 1:46:13Speaker 3: on really a global stage since governors of Ohio have
- 1:46:17Speaker 3: brought in businesses from the four corners of the globe.
- 1:46:20Speaker 3: It's one of the jobs they do. She's going to
- 1:46:22Speaker 3: be the figurehead for the state of Ohio with that.
- 1:46:24Speaker 3: If she's not drunk and she comes across like that,
- 1:46:26Speaker 3: pick your choice. Both of them are disastrous.
- 1:46:29Speaker 8: Great point. And to me, it's a little reminiscent of
- 1:46:33Speaker 8: Kamala Harris's.
- 1:46:34Speaker 10: Campaign where she was, I mean, I.
- 1:46:36Speaker 8: Can't say she was drunk because I didn't breathalyze her,
- 1:46:38Speaker 8: but was she stumbling? Was she slurring her words? Was
- 1:46:41Speaker 8: she cackling on stage? I mean, it's almost exactly to
- 1:46:44Speaker 8: a T what Amy Atkins is doing. And I love
- 1:46:46Speaker 8: your point that if she was not drunk, that's almost
- 1:46:48Speaker 8: even worse because that's your natural state. You're just aloof
- 1:46:51Speaker 8: all the time.
- 1:46:52Speaker 3: Yeah, it's scary. That one really worries me more than anything.
- 1:46:55Speaker 3: The other component of the national races, and I think
- 1:46:58Speaker 3: this Abdul El-Sayed Haley Stevens story, fight that broke out.
- 1:47:04Speaker 3: She was originally endorsing him. Then he told her to
- 1:47:06Speaker 3: stay the hell away from his campaign. She then went
- 1:47:09Speaker 3: on to endorse the Republican. And now she's basically been
- 1:47:13Speaker 3: ostracized from her own party. They've kicked her flat out.
- 1:47:16Speaker 3: That means the Democrat Party, at least in so far
- 1:47:19Speaker 3: as Michigan and this particular Senate seat is concerned, is
- 1:47:22Speaker 3: a party of, and here I'm saying it, anti-Semitism.
- 1:47:28Speaker 8: And then President Trump did an expert move and invited Ms.
- 1:47:33Speaker 8: Stevens into the GOP. And so I think this proves
- 1:47:36Speaker 8: once again that the Republicans are the party of the
- 1:47:38Speaker 8: big tent and Democrats are really quickly, I think more
- 1:47:43Speaker 8: quickly than a lot of politicians and politicos have predicted,
- 1:47:47Speaker 8: but they are being completely taken over by the Democratic
- 1:47:50Speaker 8: Socialists of America. Even if you don't want to say
- 1:47:52Speaker 8: they're Democratic Socialists, that's just what like the organization is called,
- 1:47:55Speaker 8: but DSA, Socialist Communism, and you know, Abdul El-Sayed, he
- 1:48:00Speaker 8: can deny being an anti-Semite and being a bigot and
- 1:48:02Speaker 8: not being an extremist and all that all he wants,
- 1:48:04Speaker 8: but his own half-sister said that their family has ties
- 1:48:07Speaker 8: to the Muslim Brotherhood, and we all know who they
- 1:48:09Speaker 8: fund and what their connections are to. So for Haley
- 1:48:12Speaker 8: Stevens to withdraw her endorsement and to give it to
- 1:48:16Speaker 8: Mike Rogers instead, knowing that they don't agree on many
- 1:48:19Speaker 8: of the issues... I think it shows maturity, bravery. And
- 1:48:23Speaker 8: I'm not saying she necessarily has to join the Republican Party,
- 1:48:26Speaker 8: but it was a very smart decision for Trump to
- 1:48:29Speaker 8: invite her to because, I mean, we've seen this happen
- 1:48:32Speaker 8: With Tulsi Gabbard, we've seen this happen with RFK, where
- 1:48:36Speaker 8: these moderate Democrats and independents who have a lot in
- 1:48:39Speaker 8: common with other moderate liberals are forced out of their
- 1:48:42Speaker 8: party and find a home within the Republican Party because
- 1:48:46Speaker 8: it is a big tent and they were forced out
- 1:48:48Speaker 8: by DSA people.
- 1:48:49Speaker 3: Another one that grabbed everybody's attention is the shenanigans going
- 1:48:52Speaker 3: on in Alaska. I mean, illustrating how shameless the Democrats
- 1:48:55Speaker 3: are in their efforts to, I would say, steal the seat.
- 1:48:59Speaker 3: They go out into the world and find another guy
- 1:49:00Speaker 3: named Dan Sullivan who had no interest in running, and
- 1:49:03Speaker 3: the only reason he said he agreed to run, according
- 1:49:05Speaker 3: to their own campaign people, they got him to run.
- 1:49:11Speaker 3: They changed the initial on it. The whole point of
- 1:49:13Speaker 3: this was to dupe Republican voters into voting for someone
- 1:49:16Speaker 3: they're not intending to vote for. Whatever happens to this,
- 1:49:19Speaker 3: legally speaking, it really is, I have to argue, a
- 1:49:22Speaker 3: very awful look. Not that Republicans' hands over the years
- 1:49:24Speaker 3: are necessarily completely clean, but this is This is outright shameless, Olivia.
- 1:49:28Speaker 3: Do you think anybody's going to learn a lesson from
- 1:49:30Speaker 3: this little exercise?
- 1:49:33Speaker 8: I'm sitting here laughing. For the listeners who can't see me,
- 1:49:36Speaker 8: I'm sitting here laughing because this is probably the funniest
- 1:49:38Speaker 8: story of the midterm election season. We have Mary Paltola's campaign,
- 1:49:42Speaker 8: and in the New York Times, it's all revealed that
- 1:49:44Speaker 8: a staffer was given a task to compile a list
- 1:49:47Speaker 8: of every single person named Dan Sullivan in the state
- 1:49:49Speaker 8: of Alaska. This is not a random outside firm.
- 1:49:53Speaker 7: That did this.
- 1:49:53Speaker 8: This was internally within the Mary Paltola campaign, and she
- 1:49:57Speaker 8: has denied having any knowledge of it, but it is
- 1:50:00Speaker 8: just so fake, and so many people... gave testimony to
- 1:50:03Speaker 8: the New York Times, former staffers on her campaign, and
- 1:50:06Speaker 8: proved it to the opposite, proved that she did have.
- 1:50:08Speaker 7: Knowledge of it.
- 1:50:11Speaker 8: For Dan, this teacher, Dan Sullivan, I believe I'm going
- 1:50:15Speaker 8: to call him the decoy Dan. Decoy Dan is a
- 1:50:17Speaker 8: retired school teacher who lives in Petersburg, Alaska, which is
- 1:50:22Speaker 8: only accessible by sea or by plane. This guy had
- 1:50:26Speaker 8: no intentions of campaigning in Anchorage. This guy had no
- 1:50:29Speaker 8: intentions of campaigning across Alaska. He has not produced one
- 1:50:32Speaker 8: piece of literature, not one campaign signed, not held one
- 1:50:35Speaker 8: campaign event. Nobody in this town takes him seriously. And
- 1:50:38Speaker 8: so for him to try to act like, oh, I'm
- 1:50:41Speaker 8: just here running for Senate. I'm just here running.
- 1:50:44Speaker 7: I'm just here running.
- 1:50:45Speaker 8: It's so illegal. And it's such a slimy dirtball move.
- 1:50:50Speaker 8: And for Mary Peltola to not admit that she did this,
- 1:50:53Speaker 8: that her campaign authorized this and went out of their
- 1:50:56Speaker 8: way to find him and to you know, hoist him
- 1:50:59Speaker 8: from irrelevancy into the spotlight that he clearly cannot handle
- 1:51:03Speaker 8: because he has nothing to say for himself. And it's
- 1:51:05Speaker 8: just dirty and slimy. And if Alaskans want that type
- 1:51:08Speaker 8: of person in office, then go for it. But I mean...
- 1:51:12Speaker 8: The real Dan Sullivan actually called this out in an
- 1:51:15Speaker 8: exclusive interview with Breitbart News back in like June or
- 1:51:18Speaker 8: something that really never got picked up by the mainstream media.
- 1:51:21Speaker 8: But he told our editor in chief, Alex Marlowe, hey,
- 1:51:25Speaker 8: this person named Dan Sullivan is a decoy.
- 1:51:28Speaker 13: I don't know who's behind this, but we need to
- 1:51:31Speaker 13: sound the alarm on this. And then he was completely
- 1:51:34Speaker 13: vindicated last week when the New York Times posted this
- 1:51:37Speaker 13: article saying, hey, actually, it was your opponent that did this.
- 1:51:40Speaker 10: Actually, it was her.
- 1:51:41Speaker 3: And her inside staff was talking, of all things, the
- 1:51:44Speaker 3: New York Times, not exactly a bastion of right-wing reporting,
- 1:51:48Speaker 3: that she knew about it and that a lot of
- 1:51:52Speaker 3: people within the campaign knew about it and they encouraged it.
- 1:51:54Speaker 3: So that's completely contrary to what the campaign is saying.
- 1:51:58Speaker 3: So they might find themselves in a bit of hot
- 1:52:01Speaker 3: water for lying to the feds. At least I've been
- 1:52:04Speaker 3: led to believe that.
- 1:52:08Speaker 8: I hope they do. I mean, we've seen this last
- 1:52:10Speaker 8: couple of years of lawfare against anything Madden related, anything
- 1:52:14Speaker 8: Republican related, anything Trump related. But hopefully, hopefully, hopefully this
- 1:52:19Speaker 8: gets through. I mean, the DOJ has already kind of
- 1:52:21Speaker 8: been stifled a little bit by a federal judge because
- 1:52:25Speaker 8: they were trying, you know, the Department of Justice is saying, well, hey,
- 1:52:28Speaker 8: we cannot certify these election results. if the real Dan
- 1:52:32Speaker 8: Sullivan loses because of this decoys, Dan, and then, you know,
- 1:52:35Speaker 8: the federal judge said, well, no, I mean, people should
- 1:52:37Speaker 8: be able to decide who to vote for the real
- 1:52:39Speaker 8: Dan Sullivan and the decoy Dan Sullivan. I mean, it's
- 1:52:41Speaker 8: just ridiculous. We obviously have anti-Republican based lawfare in this country,
- 1:52:46Speaker 8: but hopefully, hopefully, hopefully the voters of Alaska have seen
- 1:52:50Speaker 8: the truth and don't want to vote for a candidate
- 1:52:53Speaker 8: like Mary Peltola, who would go so far as to
- 1:52:55Speaker 8: recruit a random retired school teacher from a rural, remote
- 1:53:00Speaker 8: Alaska to pretend to run a campaign.
- 1:53:03Speaker 3: Well, this has been elevated so far to everybody's attention.
- 1:53:06Speaker 3: I can't imagine any Alaskan not being aware of it.
- 1:53:09Speaker 3: And to the extent it's going to have an influence
- 1:53:10Speaker 3: on the election, if there was a Republican in Alaska
- 1:53:13Speaker 3: that wasn't inclined to go to the polls, they'd probably
- 1:53:15Speaker 3: go just because of what the Democrats tried to pull.
- 1:53:20Speaker 8: Absolutely. I mean, this just leaves such a sour taste
- 1:53:23Speaker 8: in my mouth. I'm from the D.C., Maryland area. Something
- 1:53:26Speaker 8: like this happened here. it would motivate me like there's
- 1:53:29Speaker 8: a fire in my pants to go vote for the
- 1:53:32Speaker 8: opposite person. So even a Democrat in Alaska, a good,
- 1:53:38Speaker 8: you know, plenty of good people are Democrats. They should
- 1:53:40Speaker 8: see that this is a slime ball who has, you know,
- 1:53:44Speaker 8: bad campaign practices. And the crazy part to me, the
- 1:53:48Speaker 8: funniest part about the New York times article is like
- 1:53:50Speaker 8: the way that they were going around trying to recruit
- 1:53:52Speaker 8: all these Dan Sullivan's was taking them out to the
- 1:53:54Speaker 8: bar and drinking with them at the bar. So it's like,
- 1:53:57Speaker 8: this is like so slimy and so weird. You're trying
- 1:53:59Speaker 8: to get these guys drunk so they can agree to
- 1:54:03Speaker 8: run for office. And then this, this went all the
- 1:54:05Speaker 8: way up to the chain. You know, this was approved
- 1:54:07Speaker 8: by her campaign campaign, lawyers and attorneys and all of
- 1:54:09Speaker 8: that stuff. And so for her to sit here and
- 1:54:11Speaker 8: act like she didn't know about it when it was
- 1:54:13Speaker 8: literally an exploratory committee within her own campaign that compiled
- 1:54:17Speaker 8: this list of all the decoy dance in the state
- 1:54:19Speaker 8: and got somebody to run because they got beers. It
- 1:54:22Speaker 8: is just so far out of the realm of normalcy
- 1:54:25Speaker 8: for an election that I hope Democrats reconsider voting for her.
- 1:54:30Speaker 8: Maybe just sit it out, but there's no way Democrats
- 1:54:32Speaker 8: should ever support her if they're, if they actually care
- 1:54:36Speaker 8: about honesty and election integrity.
- 1:54:38Speaker 3: Breitbart News political reporter Olivia Rondo. We're at Fort Weapart
- 1:54:41Speaker 3: Company today. What do you sense? A red wave, a
- 1:54:44Speaker 3: blue wave, kind of a mixed bag. If you had
- 1:54:46Speaker 3: to guess, and I'm not going to hold you to it,
- 1:54:48Speaker 3: it is a guess. What do you think, Olivia?
- 1:54:51Speaker 8: For sure. I think that there's no reason that Republicans
- 1:54:55Speaker 8: should lose Republican-leaning or Republican-stronghold districts. So I'm not going
- 1:55:00Speaker 8: to fearmonger about that. But what I will say is
- 1:55:02Speaker 8: that states like Ohio have it will depend on a
- 1:55:05Speaker 8: high Republican turnout. Like every Republican has to go out
- 1:55:08Speaker 8: and vote to win those. I'm not going to sit
- 1:55:10Speaker 8: here and say it's not going to be super close
- 1:55:12Speaker 8: or that the polls show that the vet is winning
- 1:55:14Speaker 8: because the polls don't show that. But don't pay attention
- 1:55:16Speaker 8: to the polls. Pay attention to getting your neighbor out
- 1:55:18Speaker 8: to vote because it's possible if the Republican voter turnout
- 1:55:20Speaker 8: is what it should be.
- 1:55:21Speaker 3: Olivia Rondeau from Breitbart, Breitbart.com. Bookmark it. You'll be glad
- 1:55:25Speaker 3: you did. We'll talk again someday soon. I hope, Olivia,
- 1:55:27Speaker 3: keep my fingers crossed for tomorrow. And thanks for your
- 1:55:29Speaker 3: time with my listeners and me today. I appreciate it.
- 1:55:33Speaker 8: Thank you so much. I appreciate it so much.
- 1:55:35Speaker 3: Have a great day. 821-55-KRC-TheTalkStation. It's 829-55-KRC-TheTalkStation. I always look
- 1:55:41Speaker 3: forward to this time of week. It's time for the
- 1:55:42Speaker 3: alliterative of Daniel Davis Deep Dive, which podcast you can
- 1:55:46Speaker 3: find wherever you find your podcasts. Daniel Davis Deep Dive,
- 1:55:48Speaker 3: retired Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis, giving us his assessment of
- 1:55:51Speaker 3: things military. Welcome back, my friend. It is always a
- 1:55:53Speaker 3: real pleasure having you on the 55-KRC Morning Show.
- 1:55:56Speaker 1: Always a delight to be here, Brian.
- 1:55:58Speaker 3: Good to see you. Okay, and we just dropped a
- 1:56:00Speaker 3: bomb or two on Keshem Island. I want to get
- 1:56:02Speaker 3: to that in a minute, talk about what's going on
- 1:56:04Speaker 3: with the Iranian situation. I just want to bounce something
- 1:56:06Speaker 3: off your head because a very, shall we say, someone
- 1:56:11Speaker 3: who doesn't pay very close attention to politics, a dear,
- 1:56:14Speaker 3: beloved friend of mine, called the other day, wanted to
- 1:56:16Speaker 3: know about this concern that's spreading around the globe. We had,
- 1:56:20Speaker 3: of course, America's military coalition. kicking off this new program
- 1:56:25Speaker 3: to ensure that they can maintain the military bases for
- 1:56:28Speaker 3: 90 days completely off the grid. So they generate their
- 1:56:31Speaker 3: own power. They got all enough to keep them on
- 1:56:33Speaker 3: the base going for 90 days. You had the UK
- 1:56:35Speaker 3: come out with this thousand day plan telling the United
- 1:56:37Speaker 3: Kingdom citizens to start preparing, you know, lay in some supplies, blah, blah, blah.
- 1:56:41Speaker 3: Our own government's been telling this for years, at least
- 1:56:43Speaker 3: three days worth of food and provisions to keep you
- 1:56:46Speaker 3: even in a, in a no grid situation. Um, did,
- 1:56:50Speaker 3: Is there something specific that's going on out in the world?
- 1:56:52Speaker 3: Because Glenn Beck put all these dots together, and I
- 1:56:54Speaker 3: had done it a couple days prior to him with
- 1:56:56Speaker 3: the U.K. and our military decision. But the idea of
- 1:57:00Speaker 3: preparing and telling, and there's other European Union countries doing
- 1:57:03Speaker 3: the same thing. Is there a specific threat they're concerned about,
- 1:57:06Speaker 3: or is this just generally, well, the grid could easily
- 1:57:09Speaker 3: get shut down by some nefarious actor. That's going to
- 1:57:12Speaker 3: be a problem. We've got Iran, them saying that, you know,
- 1:57:16Speaker 3: Katie barred the door. Nothing's barred. Anything that's American interest
- 1:57:19Speaker 3: can be targeted. Are we worried about Iranians domestically? Do
- 1:57:22Speaker 3: you have any response to that, Dan? Do you have
- 1:57:24Speaker 3: any inside information about what the concern is? Or is
- 1:57:28Speaker 3: this just a legitimate coincidence that these warnings came out?
- 1:57:32Speaker 1: Well, I don't know how much of a coincidence it is.
- 1:57:35Speaker 1: I think that a good portion of this, my assessment
- 1:57:38Speaker 1: is that this is the social media effect and that
- 1:57:40Speaker 1: when somebody starts something one place, they start reporting it.
- 1:57:43Speaker 1: And then you have the Glenn Becks putting together dots
- 1:57:45Speaker 1: or at least claiming to. And all of a sudden
- 1:57:47Speaker 1: now everybody's, oh my God. And then now everybody's going,
- 1:57:50Speaker 1: I've been inundated with phone calls from all kinds of
- 1:57:53Speaker 1: friends asking this exact same question. I think that a
- 1:57:55Speaker 1: good bit of this started When you look at the timing,
- 1:57:58Speaker 1: when the announcement came that the U.S. said, hey, we
- 1:58:00Speaker 1: want to have a 90-day self-sufficiency for all of our
- 1:58:03Speaker 1: domestic military bases, and there's hundreds of these things, by
- 1:58:07Speaker 1: the way, and people said oh, something's coming. Something's about
- 1:58:11Speaker 1: to happen. I know that they're supposed to go to
- 1:58:13Speaker 1: fight in maybe Iran after the midterms. We better get ready. Well,
- 1:58:16Speaker 1: the thing is, it will take between five and seven
- 1:58:19Speaker 1: years to bring just the top 100 U.S. bases into
- 1:58:23Speaker 1: conformity with that standard. So nothing's going to happen anytime soon.
- 1:58:27Speaker 1: And then you had the U.K. actually months ago, not
- 1:58:31Speaker 1: even coordinated with this, but months before that, it's been
- 1:58:34Speaker 1: telling them, oh, you've got to stock up. And I
- 1:58:35Speaker 1: think that's part of the European attempt to try to
- 1:58:38Speaker 1: scare their population and to think, oh, my God, we're
- 1:58:40Speaker 1: going to have war, not with Iran, but with Russia.
- 1:58:43Speaker 1: They're coming to get us, and so you have to
- 1:58:45Speaker 1: get ready or whatever. And then I think this thing
- 1:58:47Speaker 1: starts feeding on itself. If anything happens, three days of
- 1:58:52Speaker 1: food and water or whatever is going to do absolutely nothing–
- 1:58:55Speaker 1: And God help us if it's actually the elite trying
- 1:58:57Speaker 1: to scare us all into saying, hey, something is coming,
- 1:59:00Speaker 1: so you might as well get ready. But I just
- 1:59:02Speaker 1: don't see it so far. I don't see any evidence
- 1:59:04Speaker 1: that there's.
- 1:59:05Speaker 7: A threat to the U.S.
- 1:59:06Speaker 1: Homeland. Because right now, I'll tell you, when I first
- 1:59:09Speaker 1: heard that comment about the U.S., I'm like, there's only
- 1:59:11Speaker 1: two countries on this planet that can threaten our domestic bases,
- 1:59:15Speaker 1: and that is missile strikes from Russia or from China.
- 1:59:18Speaker 1: That's the only countries that have the capacity to do that.
- 1:59:21Speaker 1: So right now, I think that Well, you can never
- 1:59:24Speaker 1: eliminate the possibility of a terrorist strike or even a
- 1:59:27Speaker 1: cyber attack or something like that anywhere in the United
- 1:59:29Speaker 1: States at any time. In terms of getting the military ready,
- 1:59:33Speaker 1: that's only for either an external strike against one of
- 1:59:37Speaker 1: those two countries or somebody thinks maybe something's going to
- 1:59:40Speaker 1: happen inside here. And I want to make sure our
- 1:59:42Speaker 1: bases are protected if there's any kind of civil strife
- 1:59:45Speaker 1: to keep the military bases up and operational. But that again,
- 1:59:49Speaker 1: that's five to seven years down the road. And about
- 1:59:51Speaker 1: 150 billion dollars minimum necessary to facilitate and fund all
- 1:59:56Speaker 1: that and all that kind of stuff so i don't
- 1:59:57Speaker 1: think anything near term from what i can.
- 1:59:59Speaker 3: See okay i i that's why i knew you provide
- 2:00:02Speaker 3: a thoughtful analysis on this and this is not me
- 2:00:04Speaker 3: saying you shouldn't have some food and water laid in
- 2:00:08Speaker 3: to be prepared because it hits the fan we had
- 2:00:10Speaker 3: a windstorm come through here's a remnant of the hurricane
- 2:00:13Speaker 3: power was up for a lot of neighborhoods for 10
- 2:00:14Speaker 3: days or more okay so that's something you might want
- 2:00:17Speaker 3: to be prepared for so under all circumstances it's a
- 2:00:19Speaker 3: good idea but The timing, again, and of course, you're right.
- 2:00:22Speaker 3: The Internet is alive and well and will push anything
- 2:00:26Speaker 3: as a theory to get people concerned and ginned up.
- 2:00:28Speaker 3: So cooler heads hopefully will prevail. And what of, since
- 2:00:32Speaker 3: you mentioned the European Union, maybe trying to gin up
- 2:00:34Speaker 3: its citizens over concern Russia is going to invade. Going
- 2:00:36Speaker 3: back to this, we've talked time and time again about this.
- 2:00:40Speaker 3: What could Russia possibly accomplish? And I just keep looking
- 2:00:44Speaker 3: at something I've said to you a multitude of times.
- 2:00:47Speaker 3: Five years into this invasion of Ukraine and we're kind
- 2:00:50Speaker 3: of like just in a tit-for-tat kind of bombing thing.
- 2:00:53Speaker 3: I know Ukraine is struggling mightily, but if Russia can't
- 2:00:56Speaker 3: accomplish the goal of taking over Ukraine and it's taken
- 2:00:58Speaker 3: them four or five years to even make the inroads
- 2:01:00Speaker 3: that they've made, how in God's name can they attack
- 2:01:02Speaker 3: the entire European Union?
- 2:01:03Speaker 1: 100% right. That is so important. And the Russians have
- 2:01:08Speaker 1: been very clear and overt. They have largely done what
- 2:01:11Speaker 1: they have said, and they have gone after what they
- 2:01:14Speaker 1: claimed was important to them, and they have not gone
- 2:01:16Speaker 1: after things that they don't want. They don't even want
- 2:01:18Speaker 1: the western part of Ukraine, because they realized that to
- 2:01:21Speaker 1: conquer the western part of Ukraine militarily, even if they could,
- 2:01:25Speaker 1: would be setting themselves up for an extended period of
- 2:01:28Speaker 1: years of insurgency kind of thing, etc., They have no
- 2:01:33Speaker 1: need for that. And you can just times 10 the
- 2:01:36Speaker 1: idea of going into another country, into NATO. Not only
- 2:01:39Speaker 1: would they then draw all 32 NATO countries into a
- 2:01:45Speaker 1: war with them, then they would put everybody on the
- 2:01:48Speaker 1: target list. They don't want it. What benefit would they have?
- 2:01:52Speaker 1: Russia already has the most natural resources on the continent.
- 2:01:55Speaker 1: They've got everything that they need for their security. They
- 2:01:58Speaker 1: want border security. They don't want to expand their border.
- 2:02:01Speaker 1: It would literally be a drain and a drag on
- 2:02:03Speaker 1: their country that they have no interest in doing. And
- 2:02:06Speaker 1: as you pointed out, the capacity on the ground, in
- 2:02:09Speaker 1: five years almost, they still haven't taken all of Donbass itself,
- 2:02:14Speaker 1: much less anything else. They've moved a bunch of other
- 2:02:16Speaker 1: stuff and they've caused profound amounts of damage throughout the
- 2:02:19Speaker 1: country of Ukraine, all the way to the western border
- 2:02:21Speaker 1: in the air, but that's in order to facilitate a
- 2:02:24Speaker 1: collapse of the Ukraine army so that they can win
- 2:02:27Speaker 1: the Donbass part that they want. Everything is focused on
- 2:02:29Speaker 1: what they're telling you they're going after, and they're going
- 2:02:32Speaker 1: after it. But this idea that they're coming for Europe
- 2:02:35Speaker 1: is absurd. Now, the only risk there, and there is
- 2:02:37Speaker 1: a risk, is that you have the likes of Britain
- 2:02:41Speaker 1: or France or Germany, especially those three in particular, keep
- 2:02:44Speaker 1: on helping Ukraine strike deep and add the United States
- 2:02:48Speaker 1: into that, because we've done it here recently with intelligence. striking,
- 2:02:51Speaker 1: hitting targets of pain in Russia, and there could come
- 2:02:54Speaker 1: a point to where Russia says, okay, you guys are
- 2:02:57Speaker 1: basically directly involved in this, and I'm now going to
- 2:02:59Speaker 1: strike the facilities where you're facilitating these kinds of strikes.
- 2:03:02Speaker 1: That is possible, and that's a legitimate fear, but that
- 2:03:05Speaker 1: would only become because we press beyond limits and we
- 2:03:09Speaker 1: go somewhere that, by the way, has no value or
- 2:03:11Speaker 1: benefit to us. We don't benefit from any of these strikes.
- 2:03:14Speaker 1: It's not going to save Ukraine. All it might do
- 2:03:18Speaker 1: is spawn a missile coming back in our direction. I
- 2:03:20Speaker 1: don't know why they're playing with fire like this.
- 2:03:22Speaker 3: I don't either. And I guess I have to continue
- 2:03:24Speaker 3: with this sort of topic is what benefit do the
- 2:03:27Speaker 3: European leaders get from ginning up concern of a Russia
- 2:03:30Speaker 3: invading the continent anyway?
- 2:03:33Speaker 1: I mean, there's the financial benefit because, you know, you've
- 2:03:35Speaker 1: had this just European mentality going back. I mean, you
- 2:03:39Speaker 1: can really go back even longer than that. This anti-Russian mentality.
- 2:03:42Speaker 1: It was all during the Cold War. And then we
- 2:03:44Speaker 1: were mad because we lost our enemy after the end
- 2:03:48Speaker 1: of the Cold War. Well, we had to have one.
- 2:03:49Speaker 1: So what a great one than Russia. Obviously, you have
- 2:03:52Speaker 1: Napoleon there. In the 1800s, you have Hitler. In the 1900s,
- 2:03:56Speaker 1: so there's a long history of Europeans wanting to conquer Russia,
- 2:04:01Speaker 1: and now here's this current iteration. That's certainly how the
- 2:04:04Speaker 1: Russians see it. That's why, to them, this is an
- 2:04:06Speaker 1: existential threat and not just something on their border. They
- 2:04:09Speaker 1: view this as the third iteration of Europe trying to
- 2:04:12Speaker 1: dominate their country. That's how they see it, and that's
- 2:04:14Speaker 1: how they're reacting.
- 2:04:15Speaker 3: Well, and I don't know that the Russians have much
- 2:04:17Speaker 3: to worry about, considering the Europeans are collapsing under the
- 2:04:20Speaker 3: weight of their own social welfare programming systems. And people
- 2:04:24Speaker 3: are riding in the streets over that. I don't know
- 2:04:25Speaker 3: that they have any money to spare or can possibly
- 2:04:27Speaker 3: fund a war to the extent they want to go
- 2:04:29Speaker 3: down that road.
- 2:04:30Speaker 1: They'll always find money for more war. They'll make their
- 2:04:33Speaker 1: people sacrifice even more before they'll do that.
- 2:04:36Speaker 3: Okay, I'll concede that, Daniel Davis. Moving over, I guess
- 2:04:40Speaker 3: we launch what we are characterizing as a defensive strike
- 2:04:44Speaker 3: on Kesham Island, the Strait of Hormuz. This because we
- 2:04:48Speaker 3: were told that the Iranians attacked a United States aircraft
- 2:04:53Speaker 3: So tit for tat, why Kashim Island? What militarily is there?
- 2:04:57Speaker 3: Why that target versus any other? If we're just going
- 2:04:59Speaker 3: to go ahead and drop a bomb in retaliation for
- 2:05:01Speaker 3: them launching a missile, what effect this particular attack?
- 2:05:06Speaker 1: According to what we've been told, this is just the
- 2:05:10Speaker 1: latest in a series of strikes that have happened recently.
- 2:05:13Speaker 1: They've been kind of below the media radar.
- 2:05:16Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah.
- 2:05:16Speaker 1: I'll concede that it's possible that exactly what we were
- 2:05:20Speaker 1: told is true, that Iran tried to attack an F-35,
- 2:05:23Speaker 1: because they've done that before, so that wouldn't be completely
- 2:05:26Speaker 1: out of character. But I'd rather think that when you
- 2:05:29Speaker 1: look at the array and things that are hit, it
- 2:05:32Speaker 1: looks more to me like the U.S. is going, I'm
- 2:05:35Speaker 1: going to go after radar sites and other areas of
- 2:05:37Speaker 1: early warning. because we maybe wanted to come in with
- 2:05:40Speaker 1: another big wave of things. So the idea is you
- 2:05:42Speaker 1: want to strip away their eyes in the front part there,
- 2:05:45Speaker 1: and then when whatever comes next, and then we kind
- 2:05:47Speaker 1: of did a version of that in the first iteration
- 2:05:49Speaker 1: of this back in February, March. So my military eyes
- 2:05:53Speaker 1: here see that I think that we're getting ready for
- 2:05:56Speaker 1: something bigger coming up here, as opposed to just, oh,
- 2:05:59Speaker 1: they tried to shoot a random F-35.
- 2:06:02Speaker 3: I don't know, though.
- 2:06:02Speaker 1: I don't have enough information, but that's my concern.
- 2:06:04Speaker 3: Well, and Donald Trump just said the other day, you know, we—
- 2:06:08Speaker 3: Right after the election, we can start dropping bombs, kind
- 2:06:11Speaker 3: of suggesting that it would only be the election that
- 2:06:13Speaker 3: would hold him from or keep him from reengaging in
- 2:06:15Speaker 3: kinetic strikes. But going back to our regular discussion, what
- 2:06:20Speaker 3: good is it going to do if we start dropping bombs?
- 2:06:23Speaker 3: Is there a strategy behind this that overcomes all the
- 2:06:26Speaker 3: challenges that you brought up every single time you've been
- 2:06:28Speaker 3: talking about this on the morning show?
- 2:06:31Speaker 1: You know, yesterday, Jack Keane went on Fox News, and
- 2:06:33Speaker 1: he addressed that question, at least, and said, oh, well,
- 2:06:36Speaker 1: you know, because we've had more intelligence now over, you know,
- 2:06:40Speaker 1: since the June when we, you know, had the basic
- 2:06:42Speaker 1: ceasefire in place. Now we have a lot more intelligence,
- 2:06:45Speaker 1: and so we can see where things are better. And
- 2:06:48Speaker 1: now we're going to hit targets we didn't hit before
- 2:06:50Speaker 1: because of new intelligence. I think that's, I'm just going
- 2:06:53Speaker 1: to call it, that's BS. It's not like we didn't
- 2:06:56Speaker 1: know these targets existed before, and suddenly we just discovered
- 2:06:59Speaker 1: them through persistent stare. No, we've already known this and
- 2:07:01Speaker 1: we've already hit the targets after painstaking years of preparation
- 2:07:05Speaker 1: for this. And the targets that matter, we didn't destroy
- 2:07:09Speaker 1: the first time, i.e. the missile cities under Granite Mountains.
- 2:07:12Speaker 1: And those have not changed any. And that target requirement
- 2:07:15Speaker 1: has not changed any. And our attack capabilities in terms
- 2:07:18Speaker 1: of what we're going to shoot also hasn't changed except
- 2:07:21Speaker 1: for there's less of it. So they may have in
- 2:07:23Speaker 1: their mind they're going to hit other targets and they
- 2:07:25Speaker 1: may hit other targets that they'll blow up whatever we
- 2:07:28Speaker 1: shoot at because they can't stop it. but it won't
- 2:07:30Speaker 1: make any difference for the war and it won't stop
- 2:07:32Speaker 1: the one thing they have over all of the region,
- 2:07:35Speaker 1: which is those long range missiles and the long range drones.
- 2:07:38Speaker 1: And if you can't take those out and you start
- 2:07:40Speaker 1: a war, then all these threats that Iran is making
- 2:07:42Speaker 1: about what they'll hit in return, they also will do.
- 2:07:46Speaker 1: And we can't stop that either. So in my view,
- 2:07:48Speaker 1: it is absolute just insanity to start something that we
- 2:07:52Speaker 1: can't finish on our terms.
- 2:07:54Speaker 3: Well, and of course the Iranians and the Houthis have
- 2:07:56Speaker 3: been launching attacks on the surrounding neighbors, Saudis, et cetera. Uh,
- 2:08:00Speaker 3: And I've read that our allies in the Middle East
- 2:08:01Speaker 3: are already planning for this next wave of assault. So
- 2:08:04Speaker 3: they're targets as well. And it was just more recently
- 2:08:08Speaker 3: revealed the extensive damage done to our military bases. I mean,
- 2:08:12Speaker 3: billions of dollars. And that was really way, way, way
- 2:08:15Speaker 3: under the radar. I mean, that wasn't a regularly reported thing.
- 2:08:18Speaker 3: So We've got major challenges on our hand, and I
- 2:08:21Speaker 3: guess we can expect the price of gasoline to go
- 2:08:23Speaker 3: through the roof even more so if we start bombing again, Daniel.
- 2:08:26Speaker 1: Yeah, and diesel in particular. But, yeah, because here's the problem.
- 2:08:32Speaker 1: When we started this first one, we had this massive
- 2:08:34Speaker 1: amount of strategic petroleum reserves and other things. We had
- 2:08:37Speaker 1: lots of cushion. The cushion is gone. If we start
- 2:08:40Speaker 1: something again now and the fuel facilities get hit, pumping
- 2:08:44Speaker 1: stations get hit, tankers get sunk again, There's no cushion.
- 2:08:48Speaker 1: So we're going to be in a lot more trouble
- 2:08:50Speaker 1: the next round.
- 2:08:51Speaker 3: Daniel Davis, Deep Dive. Find them where you find your podcasts.
- 2:08:53Speaker 3: Tune in every Tuesday at 830 here on the 55KRC
- 2:08:56Speaker 3: Morning Show. I appreciate your thoughts and insights, sir. It's

- 2:09:08Speaker 3: ready for winter. We'll be right back. But do you
- 2:09:10Speaker 3: think they know much about El Sayed?
