- 0:51Speaker 2: today and he appreciates the fact now that it's impossible

- 1:25Speaker 2: seven oh five to the Rescue. Here we'll get a
- 1:27Speaker 2: couple of segments with Congressman Davidson talking about the war, inflation,
- 1:30Speaker 2: and our do nothing Senate, which is really just rubbing
- 1:34Speaker 2: me the wrong way. Unbelievable. They take a recess and
- 1:37Speaker 2: don't even bother moving forward on the Save Act. Why not?
- 1:40Speaker 2: Why that's frustrating? I wonder if Congressman Davidson knows what
- 1:43Speaker 2: the hell is with the at least the Republican senators
- 1:46Speaker 2: not wanting to talk about the Save Act and going
- 1:48Speaker 2: home anyway. Jay Ratliffe, it is Thursday, so we'll get
- 1:51Speaker 2: iHeart media aviation expert Jay Ratliffe. Always enjoy that. A
- 1:54Speaker 2: few segments with Jay and some fun conversation five one, three, seven, four,
- 1:58Speaker 2: nine fifty five hundred eight hundre eight two three talk
- 2:01Speaker 2: pound five point fifty on AT and T phones. Like
- 2:04Speaker 2: I said, in case you want to help me fill
- 2:06Speaker 2: in the time in the morning show this morning, you know,
- 2:08Speaker 2: I really kind of scratching my head over which direction
- 2:10Speaker 2: I wanted to go to start out, and there's a
- 2:13Speaker 2: multitude of them, but I got to turn to the
- 2:16Speaker 2: kto institute. I think we still have some measure of
- 2:18Speaker 2: respect for the KTO Institute do some good work. There
- 2:21Speaker 2: are number of scrunches over there. And you know, for
- 2:24Speaker 2: all you folks out there that are looking for well,
- 2:28Speaker 2: universal medicare for all, reparation, federal jobs, guarantee, infrastructure, green
- 2:33Speaker 2: energy investment, larger retirement benefits, free housing, paid family leave,
- 2:37Speaker 2: no cost college, all the Democratic Socialist of America platform policies,
- 2:45Speaker 2: and maybe even high speed rail in California they got
- 2:47Speaker 2: to that's one of the greatest illustrations of debacles in
- 2:52Speaker 2: terms of government public works project. Ever, it just keeps
- 2:55Speaker 2: getting worse out in California with a high speed rail trade.
- 2:57Speaker 2: They don't have any money. I mean is that they
- 3:01Speaker 2: could run out of money as soon as December of
- 3:03Speaker 2: next year. According to report. They did some numbers crunching.
- 3:07Speaker 2: They're exhausted in fund and they haven't built any damn
- 3:09Speaker 2: track in the project. He's getting more and more expensive.
- 3:12Speaker 2: They haven't done anything, and they've already blown through billions.
- 3:16Speaker 2: And frankly, it's not even funny because federal money means
- 3:19Speaker 2: your money was spent on this project and it hasn't
- 3:22Speaker 2: yielded a single thing. There's government efficiency for you, but
- 3:27Speaker 2: anyway back to the realities of what the Democrats socialis
- 3:29Speaker 2: of America, and a lot of the Democrats generally speaking,
- 3:32Speaker 2: even some of the more centriist Democrats who scream about
- 3:36Speaker 2: medicare for all at least as one policy they'd like
- 3:38Speaker 2: to put in. Has anybody tallied up how much it's
- 3:40Speaker 2: going to cost?
- 3:42Speaker 4: You?
- 3:43Speaker 2: Remember, folks, as we enter into the Cato Institute's number crunching,
- 3:46Speaker 2: we're already forty trillion dollars in the hole, costing the
- 3:50Speaker 2: American taxpayers more than one trillion dollars every year in
- 3:54Speaker 2: interest payments. And that's before we start talking about funding
- 3:58Speaker 2: any aspect of government. All right, let's start with you know,
- 4:05Speaker 2: we've got a pile of money. I think we take
- 4:07Speaker 2: like seventeen trillion dollars. Okay, first trillion that's going to
- 4:10Speaker 2: interest payments. Now we can start talking about what we're
- 4:12Speaker 2: going to find. And when you finally exhaust all the
- 4:15Speaker 2: taxpayer dollars that have come in and they're growing, you
- 4:19Speaker 2: have to print out an additional three to six trillion
- 4:22Speaker 2: dollars to cover the rest of what you've promised people.
- 4:28Speaker 2: Does anybody think that's not a recipe for disaster? All
- 4:30Speaker 2: right over to the CATO numbers. What are the DSA
- 4:32Speaker 2: platform is going to cost us? Totaling up nine of
- 4:35Speaker 2: the largest proposals, so this is really not all of them.
- 4:40Speaker 2: In the DSA platform would mean new federal spending. New
- 4:46Speaker 2: federal spending equivalent to between eighteen percent and fifty three
- 4:49Speaker 2: percent of GDP. Now what we're currently doing, it already
- 4:53Speaker 2: blows through one hundred percent of GDP, So we're gonna
- 4:55Speaker 2: be adding a little bit more, all right. Medicare for all, one,
- 5:00Speaker 2: single policy one, universal healthcare would increase federal spending by
- 5:08Speaker 2: forty to seventy five trillion dollars over just ten years.
- 5:13Speaker 2: Let that sink. In one of their proposals, federal government
- 5:21Speaker 2: projected a collect I'm sorry, it's it's seventy over ten
- 5:25Speaker 2: over the next ten years, seventy trillion dollars they're expected
- 5:28Speaker 2: to collect seventy trillion in taxes. I guess some of
- 5:31Speaker 2: the current projections. That's eighteen percent, roughly eighteen percent of
- 5:34Speaker 2: GDP now. Paying for the DSAY agenda, Cato says, would
- 5:39Speaker 2: require roughly doubling federal revenue at the low end and
- 5:43Speaker 2: quadrupling it at the highest. Because there's a range. In
- 5:47Speaker 2: addition to the revenue needed to cover the congressional budget
- 5:49Speaker 2: offices twenty four trillion dollars projected ten year deficit. In
- 5:52Speaker 2: other words, that's twenty four trillion more we're gonna spend
- 5:56Speaker 2: beyond what they take in in tax revenues, so that
- 5:59Speaker 2: forty trillion I just mentioned becomes sixty four trillion over
- 6:03Speaker 2: ten years. Things getting worse under the current economic conditions,
- 6:06Speaker 2: aren't they under the current spending projections anyway? DSA suggests
- 6:11Speaker 2: that the richest Americans and corporations are going to be
- 6:13Speaker 2: paying for these new outlays. However, I guess they didn't
- 6:17Speaker 2: do the math the math over the DSA, probably because
- 6:20Speaker 2: they were taught in K through twelve public education and
- 6:22Speaker 2: do not have even middle school level mathematical abilities. The
- 6:27Speaker 2: four hundred wealthiest Americans worth a record six point six
- 6:31Speaker 2: trillion dollars last year. Four hundred wealthiest Americans worth six
- 6:36Speaker 2: point six trillion. Wow, those evil trillionaire billionaires. Anyway, as
- 6:40Speaker 2: K two points out, confiscating all of their wealth all
- 6:44Speaker 2: of it would cover about nine percent of the low
- 6:50Speaker 2: end revenue requirement and three percent of the high Going
- 6:57Speaker 2: back to the massive overall which is the Cato Institute
- 7:02Speaker 2: says all of their policies together would be between seventy
- 7:06Speaker 2: one trillion and two hundred and twelve trillion in new
- 7:12Speaker 2: spending over ten years. That's the big that's the total number.
- 7:16Speaker 2: So it is quite arrange. But you know, new spending
- 7:19Speaker 2: up seventy one trillion over ten years, even on a
- 7:21Speaker 2: low end. And let's again go back to the four
- 7:24Speaker 2: hund wealthy Americans. Take every single penny they have, and
- 7:27Speaker 2: you still only cover nine percent of the seventy one
- 7:30Speaker 2: trillion low figure, low end figure. Huh, I guess there's
- 7:34Speaker 2: not enough money out there. And the other point is,
- 7:37Speaker 2: as Kto points out, the four hundred wealthiest Americans revenue
- 7:41Speaker 2: can be seized only one time. You can't go back
- 7:45Speaker 2: after you've liquidated their money. They're not there anymore. And
- 7:49Speaker 2: to the extent they can go out and continue to
- 7:51Speaker 2: make more money, if one hundred percent of their money
- 7:53Speaker 2: is being confiscated by the federal government, why would they bother?
- 7:59Speaker 2: I guess Margaret True is right. Eventually you run out
- 8:01Speaker 2: of other people's money. Now, moving over more fun figures
- 8:07Speaker 2: from kto domestic corporate profits. After after federal taxes, they
- 8:12Speaker 2: say're projected to be about thirty five trillion dollars over
- 8:15Speaker 2: the next ten years. Right, there's a source of money, right,
- 8:19Speaker 2: those evil corporations. Wow, they're making trillions of dollars. So
- 8:22Speaker 2: for over ten years, thirty five trillion is what they're making.
- 8:26Speaker 2: Seizing every additional dollar of corporate profits would fund half
- 8:31Speaker 2: of the low end estimate, And if it comes out
- 8:35Speaker 2: to be more like two hundred million dollars the high end,
- 8:37Speaker 2: it's only seventy seventeen percent if you stick if every
- 8:41Speaker 2: single profit that domestic corporations make, and that assumes that
- 8:46Speaker 2: firms continuing operating normally while the government takes every cent
- 8:50Speaker 2: of profit. Does anybody think they're going to continue operating
- 8:54Speaker 2: normally without a profit motive? Right? They won't. That's the
- 8:57Speaker 2: point of all. Ultimately, why socialism communism. It's a pointless
- 9:01Speaker 2: gesture to work hard, earn money, and make money. It's
- 9:04Speaker 2: not yours to keep or spend. The entire wealth of
- 9:10Speaker 2: the richest Americans plus every dollar of corporate profit and
- 9:14Speaker 2: maximum top income tax rates still leaves the DSA agenda
- 9:20Speaker 2: between twenty nine trillion and one hundred and sixty nine
- 9:25Speaker 2: trillion dollars short which means, and as Kto points out,
- 9:36Speaker 2: the only remaining source of revenue is the middle class,
- 9:41Speaker 2: and you got to look to them. So it's not
- 9:44Speaker 2: just the evil billionaires and millionaires out in the world.
- 9:46Speaker 2: Those evil corporations take everything they've got and you're still
- 9:50Speaker 2: short a huge amount of money. So to the extent
- 9:54Speaker 2: you want to continue moving down the DSA platform road,
- 9:57Speaker 2: they're staring at you middle class and they say, that's
- 10:02Speaker 2: basically what the European Union does. They go after the
- 10:05Speaker 2: middle class. Which things are? Things got to suck over there.
- 10:07Speaker 2: To be honest with you, to cover the dsay's high spending,
- 10:10Speaker 2: CATO rights estimates and current deficits, every one dollar the
- 10:14Speaker 2: federal government collects today would need to become four dollars
- 10:19Speaker 2: and thirty six cents. Mechanically, applying that increase to individual
- 10:25Speaker 2: income tax rates would push the twenty four percent bracket
- 10:29Speaker 2: above one hundred percent and the top rate above one
- 10:33Speaker 2: hundred and sixty percent. You can't squeeze blood out of
- 10:37Speaker 2: a turn after you've taken one hundred percent. How do
- 10:39Speaker 2: you pull one hundred and sixty percent out of someone? Right?
- 10:42Speaker 2: You can't, and the CATO conclude Cato's concludes, But the
- 10:51Speaker 2: DSA is promising Americans a world in which someone else
- 10:53Speaker 2: will pay for potentially hundreds of trillions of dollars and
- 10:56Speaker 2: new benefits. The problem is that there aren't enough Ridge
- 11:00Speaker 2: people or corporations to pay for democratic socialism. Eventually, the
- 11:05Speaker 2: bill will come for the rest of us, and as
- 11:06Speaker 2: the cat wins point, even that won't cut it, take
- 11:13Speaker 2: it all. It's just not enough to cover what they
- 11:16Speaker 2: want to do. They're living in a fantasy world. Five
- 11:22Speaker 2: sixteen fifty five KRC DE talk station. Feel free to
- 11:25Speaker 2: give me a call, got a common five one three
- 11:26Speaker 2: seven four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred y two
- 11:28Speaker 2: three Talk pound five fifty on AT and T phones.
- 11:32Speaker 5: This is fifty five KRC and iHeart rate five one.
- 11:35Speaker 2: Three seven four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred eighty
- 11:38Speaker 2: two three Talk to five fifty on eighteen T phones.
- 11:41Speaker 2: Over to the phone's got to go. Hey, we're gonna
- 11:43Speaker 2: trying to hear so Gary's back on the phone, New Hampshire. Gary,
- 11:45Speaker 2: good to hear from you this morning. How things in
- 11:47Speaker 2: New Hampshire.
- 11:49Speaker 4: It's just just about the same that way it is
- 11:52Speaker 4: in Ohio. The rating, No, no, it's grip clear blue.
- 11:57Speaker 4: Actually I took a day off yesterday went up to
- 11:59Speaker 4: the White Mountains on the motor's rifle n So it
- 12:02Speaker 4: was beautiful up there. But as far politics, not the same.
- 12:07Speaker 4: We got we got governors just like you have governors,
- 12:11Speaker 4: you know, but ours is just just as rhino corrupt
- 12:15Speaker 4: as anything. Anyhow, what I meant to call in on
- 12:20Speaker 4: is I don't know if you've known this, but there
- 12:24Speaker 4: was a human error at midnight in the election. Quote
- 12:30Speaker 4: to and I think her name is Hong. Yeah, this
- 12:35Speaker 4: Gus Hong, and they were they came out and I
- 12:40Speaker 4: say they the election board came out at midnight and
- 12:43Speaker 4: said that they were going to fix the problem that
- 12:45Speaker 4: apparently was a human error. They downloaded uh five USB
- 12:51Speaker 4: sticks did not have the election results on them, the
- 12:54Speaker 4: correct due to human error, and that they went back
- 12:58Speaker 4: and fixed it at two o'clock in the morning. It
- 13:01Speaker 4: then showed that Hong actually lost. I think the Democrats
- 13:06Speaker 4: fixed the election again too. You know, all these midnight
- 13:11Speaker 4: elections and what they did. And there's a big press conference.
- 13:15Speaker 4: You can look at it. It's on on the internet.
- 13:19Speaker 4: It's on multiple accounts like open source and Eric Duggery.
- 13:24Speaker 4: These are all Blue check people and MSNBC was stunned,
- 13:29Speaker 4: stunned when they found this out.
- 13:33Speaker 2: And yeah, I just I found a bunch of articles
- 13:35Speaker 2: on the topic. Honestly, that flew underneath my radar this
- 13:37Speaker 2: morning as I was preparing for the show.
- 13:38Speaker 4: But yeah, and you know, it's it's just it's like
- 13:46Speaker 4: there's cheating going on. And if you go to OMG,
- 13:50Speaker 4: which is Keith o'keeith I forgot his first name, but
- 13:56Speaker 4: he's OMG Media, he shows all of the corruption. You know.
- 14:02Speaker 4: He went in and he voted as a couple of
- 14:06Speaker 4: Iranians in Milwaukee, and they were like, sure, bring any
- 14:10Speaker 4: of your friends too. He puts on mustaches and that,
- 14:13Speaker 4: and they're like sure, we don't care, you know, to
- 14:16Speaker 4: the election board and they're like, sure, bring either of
- 14:19Speaker 4: your buddies too. He'll trust Islamic and they're like even better.
- 14:22Speaker 4: Come on. It's just that, you know, in some of
- 14:26Speaker 4: the blue check areas or the blue areas, blue states,
- 14:31Speaker 4: it's corruptions. And I'm sure there's corruption in Republican areas too.
- 14:36Speaker 2: No, yeah, there's no question about it. But you know,
- 14:39Speaker 2: I mean it's a question of at least in terms
- 14:41Speaker 2: of the vote, the voting. Who's on the side of
- 14:44Speaker 2: more secure elections obviously the Republicans. The Save Actor is
- 14:47Speaker 2: a great illustration of that. Who is trying to fight
- 14:49Speaker 2: off that and require photo ID for federal elections the Democrats.
- 14:52Speaker 2: So you have a stark difference between the Republican Party
- 14:55Speaker 2: and Democrat Party platform wise. And that is not to
- 14:57Speaker 2: suggest for a moment that the Republican Party has clean
- 14:59Speaker 2: hands on anything. There are always some of them. You know.
- 15:02Speaker 2: It's like you point out to Rhino governors. You know
- 15:04Speaker 2: they're supposed to be Republicans, and yet they do all
- 15:06Speaker 2: kinds of things that only the Democrat side of the
- 15:09Speaker 2: ledger would propose. Often, you know, you scratch your head
- 15:13Speaker 2: over what the hell of the problem is. Like the
- 15:14Speaker 2: senators who went home and went on recess, and they
- 15:16Speaker 2: could have voted on the Save Act before going home,
- 15:18Speaker 2: why didn't they take a chance to vote on it.
- 15:20Speaker 2: I don't understand.
- 15:22Speaker 4: You only have to buy off one or two of
- 15:26Speaker 4: the Republicans Likeoon.
- 15:29Speaker 2: Okay and Gary on that point, because we're about at
- 15:32Speaker 2: time in a segment, but you just media said something
- 15:34Speaker 2: that I think is worth bringing up. You only have
- 15:37Speaker 2: to impact one or two of them in this Internet
- 15:39Speaker 2: world where every single detail of every single person's life
- 15:43Speaker 2: maybe on full display. Maybe that person engages in some
- 15:48Speaker 2: untoward Internet search behavior. Maybe they've got a skeleton in
- 15:52Speaker 2: their closet that the opposition is found out about through
- 15:55Speaker 2: hacking or otherwise. Maybe they've got something the goods on
- 15:59Speaker 2: that person. Or maybe they're just threatening them online threats, docsing,
- 16:03Speaker 2: threatening their spouse, their children. You know, there's all kinds
- 16:06Speaker 2: of ways you can try to manipulate someone into doing
- 16:09Speaker 2: something that they otherwise might not do, right, you know,
- 16:12Speaker 2: this is the kind of world we live in. Extortion
- 16:14Speaker 2: really is what it comes down to. So maybe the
- 16:17Speaker 2: answer to the question is that they haven't lost their mind.
- 16:19Speaker 2: It's just well, someone's extorting them to do something and
- 16:22Speaker 2: vote any way that they don't like that they wouldn't
- 16:25Speaker 2: do otherwise. Just the thought, we know what's going on
- 16:28Speaker 2: out there, but holding them accountable and asking them damn
- 16:32Speaker 2: questions on why. You know, it's like it's like Mitch McConnell,
- 16:35Speaker 2: why in God's name doesn't he show himself to the
- 16:38Speaker 2: rest of the world. This would this would cause people
- 16:41Speaker 2: like me to shut the hell up. Oh there he is, Okay,
- 16:45Speaker 2: reporters outside his residence, you know, asking questions like where
- 16:49Speaker 2: is he? Where is he? And basically getting a middle
- 16:50Speaker 2: finger metaphorically. That's not a difficult question to answer. And
- 16:56Speaker 2: I know it doesn't deal with the issues. It's not
- 16:58Speaker 2: an issues based thing. But what's the deal? Same thing, Senator,
- 17:05Speaker 2: what's the deal? Explain to me what the problem is
- 17:10Speaker 2: with this? Your constituents want it. Silence is definite. By
- 17:16Speaker 2: twenty six fifty five k C the talk station, I
- 17:18Speaker 2: got local stories coming up. Your phone calls are always welcome.
- 17:21Speaker 2: They'll be right back in this edition of the Marketers Report,
- 17:24Speaker 2: Kelsey A got thirty Is Friday even a happy one
- 17:27Speaker 2: to you? Fifty five KR see dot iHeart dot com
- 17:33Speaker 2: its whitch podcast. Check out what judge of Paula Tana
- 17:35Speaker 2: had to say. Then Sherry Pohl and Hamilin Candy Board
- 17:37Speaker 2: of Elections says they need poll workers and just another
- 17:40Speaker 2: reminder for young people out there seventeen eighteen years old
- 17:43Speaker 2: in high school, you can put something on your resume
- 17:45Speaker 2: you engaged in civic duty by working the poll so
- 17:47Speaker 2: young people can get engaged as well. But please work
- 17:51Speaker 2: the polls. It's the well going back to election integrity.
- 17:55Speaker 2: I think we can pretty much say with the straight face,
- 17:58Speaker 2: Ohio has a pretty darn secure elections. Not so much
- 18:02Speaker 2: about maybe fraud, but you know, we'll get around to that.
- 18:05Speaker 2: Let's go to the phone to what Tom's god this morning, Tom,
- 18:07Speaker 2: Happy Friday, Eve to you. Good to hear from as always.
- 18:10Speaker 6: Yes, and there and there are days where I sure
- 18:12Speaker 6: wish I would have forgotten my phone, but I know
- 18:15Speaker 6: that sheer chaos would ensue if I didn't have my
- 18:17Speaker 6: phone on me.
- 18:18Speaker 2: So it's first of.
- 18:19Speaker 6: All, First of all, I wouldn't be able to call
- 18:21Speaker 6: and talk to you guys. Sure that would be terrible.
- 18:23Speaker 6: That would be terrible.
- 18:24Speaker 2: We would do that.
- 18:26Speaker 6: Yeah. Likewise, you know, my wife and I we have
- 18:31Speaker 6: five children, and all about what twelve fifteen years ago,
- 18:37Speaker 6: when the youngest one turned eighteen, all of a sudden,
- 18:41Speaker 6: Mom and dad are able to do some things that
- 18:43Speaker 6: well maybe we weren't able to do, maybe we didn't
- 18:46Speaker 6: do before, And the kids are wondering, well, how how
- 18:48Speaker 6: come you didn't do this before? But because we had
- 18:50Speaker 6: too many mouths defeat. You know, the idea is to
- 18:53Speaker 6: raise you so you could take care of yourself and
- 18:56Speaker 6: kick you out of the house so we could have
- 18:58Speaker 6: enjoy life, you know, I mean, we love you or
- 19:01Speaker 6: glad we had you and raised you, and it was
- 19:04Speaker 6: you know, all the things that come with that, and
- 19:06Speaker 6: you know, we got grand kids out of it, and
- 19:08Speaker 6: it's great, but you know, we would like to enjoy
- 19:11Speaker 6: some things and we take we take kids with us
- 19:13Speaker 6: sometimes and we go on trips or go out to
- 19:15Speaker 6: eat or whatever. And that's fine. But when you don't
- 19:18Speaker 6: have five people that you have to fully pay for everything, right, well,
- 19:22Speaker 6: you tend to have a little bit more money to
- 19:24Speaker 6: do stuff you like to do. And so so basically
- 19:27Speaker 6: what the Democratic socialists want me to do is just
- 19:31Speaker 6: to keep paying for my kids their entire life.
- 19:34Speaker 2: Your kids, their kids, everybody Else's exactly right.
- 19:38Speaker 6: And so so anybody who thinks that that's a good idea,
- 19:42Speaker 6: imagine your own situation. You have kids and grand kids
- 19:46Speaker 6: and you have to keep footing the bill for everything
- 19:48Speaker 6: for them. They don't have to do anything, they don't
- 19:51Speaker 6: have to work. They can just sit on your couch
- 19:53Speaker 6: and play video games or or sleep in or whatever,
- 19:56Speaker 6: and you got to get up and go to work
- 19:58Speaker 6: and support everybody. And they're there are families like that.
- 20:01Speaker 6: There are families that they do that, and the parents
- 20:05Speaker 6: let their kids take advantage of them because all they
- 20:08Speaker 6: we love their kids and we want to see the
- 20:09Speaker 6: great kids of them. You have to tell you have
- 20:12Speaker 6: to teach your children, and sometimes you got to reinforce
- 20:15Speaker 6: it later in life. I'm not your meal ticket anymore.
- 20:18Speaker 6: You got to go out and do something. You got
- 20:20Speaker 6: to go take care of yourself. That goes back I'm
- 20:22Speaker 6: not here to support you.
- 20:23Speaker 2: Yeah, that goes back to the point. I mean, I
- 20:25Speaker 2: don't know that the word these specific words were used,
- 20:28Speaker 2: but the general understanding that I grew up with is
- 20:31Speaker 2: you better be able to at least, you know, support yourself.
- 20:34Speaker 2: You know, you're one person at minimum, you know, go
- 20:38Speaker 2: on and raise children and help support them blah blah
- 20:40Speaker 2: blah withh your extra income. But you know, at minimum
- 20:42Speaker 2: you need to have be able to shelter and clothe
- 20:45Speaker 2: and feed yourself, just yourself. And once you've accomplished a
- 20:48Speaker 2: goal of taking care of yourself, then you can expand
- 20:50Speaker 2: the you know, the care environment and people of the
- 20:53Speaker 2: amount of responsibility you've got. But if everyone would take
- 20:56Speaker 2: the time to just ensure that they could take care
- 20:59Speaker 2: of themselves, I don't know we need any social welfare, right, exactly, amazing.
- 21:06Speaker 6: What's that be?
- 21:07Speaker 4: Great?
- 21:08Speaker 6: Yeah? And and the too many, too many of these
- 21:10Speaker 6: kids they go out and they they do just enough,
- 21:14Speaker 6: so they go run around and have fun and then
- 21:15Speaker 6: all of a sudden, uh, you know, girls knocked up
- 21:19Speaker 6: or or or son's boy girlfriend is knocked up or whatever,
- 21:23Speaker 6: and now we got a little kid to take care of.
- 21:24Speaker 6: So we go back to mom and dad and go,
- 21:26Speaker 6: we need your help. Well, yeah, I know you need
- 21:29Speaker 6: my help, and surely we don't want the kid to
- 21:32Speaker 6: have to suffer. But you know, now, now you create
- 21:35Speaker 6: a situation where you're almost you almost have to take
- 21:38Speaker 6: care of them because now we got a little kid
- 21:40Speaker 6: or can't take care of himself. We're just we keep
- 21:44Speaker 6: having repeated cycle. Somebody's got to step up and do something.
- 21:47Speaker 6: And finally, I mean, somebody's gonna be the bad guy
- 21:49Speaker 6: and say no, I'm not here to take care of you.
- 21:51Speaker 2: You got to know that's yeah, that's that's like it's
- 21:55Speaker 2: like the criminal justice social system's gonna be some accountability
- 21:58Speaker 2: pain and wanting to avoid pain. The pain will come
- 22:03Speaker 2: from the the the aftermath of making bad decisions whatever
- 22:06Speaker 2: that decision happens to be, you know, and therefore you
- 22:09Speaker 2: you learn a lessons like, oh, damnit, I'm gonna get
- 22:11Speaker 2: in some real pain here if I don't, you know,
- 22:13Speaker 2: correct my behavior and don't for whatever reason. I'm thinking
- 22:17Speaker 2: of insurance. It used to be with pre existing condition
- 22:19Speaker 2: that the pain of having no insurance for whatever medical
- 22:23Speaker 2: condition was what drove people to go out and get
- 22:25Speaker 2: an insurance policy. It's like life insurance. You don't want
- 22:28Speaker 2: to buy it, but you do. So I don't want
- 22:30Speaker 2: to buy medical insurance, but damn it. If I don't
- 22:32Speaker 2: and then I end up with cancer, I'm not gonna
- 22:34Speaker 2: be able to get coverage. So but then we took
- 22:37Speaker 2: away the incentive because well, no, there's no pre existing
- 22:39Speaker 2: condition anymore. And next thing you know, Obama Charecter becomes
- 22:42Speaker 2: the insurer last resort and it is collapsing under the
- 22:45Speaker 2: weight of that reality. So it just doesn't work, eh,
- 22:49Speaker 2: And you got.
- 22:50Speaker 6: You gotta let you gotta let you gotta let these
- 22:52Speaker 6: kids feel some pain so they know what they're what
- 22:55Speaker 6: they have to work for to get out of them.
- 22:57Speaker 6: If you don't let them feel any pain, then they
- 22:59Speaker 6: what's the incentive for them to work hard, and in
- 23:02Speaker 6: this country, some of us that have experienced that, a
- 23:07Speaker 6: lot of us have witnessed it, the pain that this
- 23:08Speaker 6: country is going through by the poor decisions that these
- 23:12Speaker 6: voters are making by electing these people who are promising
- 23:15Speaker 6: them the world, but have there's no reality behind it, right,
- 23:18Speaker 6: like you were just talking before, there's the this is
- 23:20Speaker 6: fantasy world. It is and we've seen enough where we
- 23:23Speaker 6: could say, no, this isn't gonna work, this is gonna
- 23:26Speaker 6: fail miserably, spectacularly. Whatever we gotta. We got to stop
- 23:30Speaker 6: this now before it's too late. So don't vote Democrat.
- 23:34Speaker 6: Have a great day.
- 23:35Speaker 2: He always gets to the point you do the same time.
- 23:37Speaker 2: Appreciate hearing from you. You can call too, five and
- 23:40Speaker 2: three seven two three talk bout five fifty on ET
- 23:44Speaker 2: and T phones. Other than that, without calls, we're going
- 23:47Speaker 2: to dive into the stack. Is stupid and uh and
- 23:49Speaker 2: more coming up. Don't go away.
- 23:51Speaker 5: Fifty five KRC.
- 23:53Speaker 1: You're one stop for advertisement.
- 23:58Speaker 2: It is five forty one here fifty five Kersee Talks Station.
- 24:02Speaker 2: Happy Friday, Eve and I was quick Good morning. Did
- 24:08Speaker 2: Joseph you have apology accepted? Brother, He's the one that
- 24:11Speaker 2: was critical of me the day I read his email
- 24:13Speaker 2: on We've gone back and forth and he is a very,
- 24:16Speaker 2: very thoughtful man. He sent me an extraordinarily long reply
- 24:20Speaker 2: to my response to his critical email after I had
- 24:23Speaker 2: commented on the radio. We'll be going back and forth,
- 24:25Speaker 2: and you know, someday, when you're in town, Joseph, I'm
- 24:27Speaker 2: taking you up on that sit down the the the
- 24:30Speaker 2: cigar summit, maybe with a beer. But he is also
- 24:33Speaker 2: a fellow cancer survivor, and he's now in remission for
- 24:36Speaker 2: six years. And that's what the other one of the
- 24:37Speaker 2: reasons I'm happy for you, Joseph, and for all my
- 24:40Speaker 2: cancer surviving friends. God bless each and every one of you. Again,
- 24:44Speaker 2: one thing we certainly can all agree on. Another point,
- 24:47Speaker 2: Joseph and I share cancer sucks, right, Joe. Let's see
- 24:51Speaker 2: what Kathy's got this morning. Kathy, thanks for calling, and
- 24:53Speaker 2: Happy Friday Eve to you.
- 24:56Speaker 7: Oh well, thank you too well.
- 24:59Speaker 8: Tom.
- 25:00Speaker 7: I have a comment about campaign ads. I feel like
- 25:05Speaker 7: the Republicans are terrible about trying to get out the message.
- 25:10Speaker 7: The ads that I see. I'll use Ramaswami's ads for example.
- 25:16Speaker 7: What I hear from him is two things. Either Amy
- 25:20Speaker 7: Acton is crazy or he's preaching to the fire talking
- 25:24Speaker 7: about help for veterans and law enforcements. I would like
- 25:29Speaker 7: to hear a logical explanation that counteracts the democratic socialist
- 25:36Speaker 7: message to socialism is wonderful and works for everybody. I
- 25:39Speaker 7: think it needs to be spelled out why it's said,
- 25:42Speaker 7: and don't just tell me they're crazy. Give me a logical.
- 25:46Speaker 2: Explanation law well, yeah, I mean, Kathy, A great one
- 25:49Speaker 2: would be maybe a quick campaign with using the Cato
- 25:53Speaker 2: Institute's number crunching. I mean, you know, do you realize
- 25:56Speaker 2: what this would cost? I mean, even if you want it,
- 25:59Speaker 2: it's impossible, economically, ruinous, disastrous, you know, existential threat stuff.
- 26:08Speaker 2: You're I agree with you, and you know, actually Karl
- 26:10Speaker 2: Rove had a good op ed piece in the Wall
- 26:12Speaker 2: Street Journal today talking about the seven things that Republicans
- 26:14Speaker 2: need to do, and he's kind of in line with
- 26:16Speaker 2: the suggestions you're alluding to in your call here this morning, Kathy,
- 26:20Speaker 2: I agree with you. And then also remember that you
- 26:22Speaker 2: know there are politicians with the I approve this message
- 26:24Speaker 2: at and then there's packs which can really pretty much
- 26:27Speaker 2: say whatever they want on behalf of any candidate. And
- 26:30Speaker 2: I think whether or not the candidate wants them to
- 26:32Speaker 2: or not, so they can say whatever they want. So
- 26:34Speaker 2: there's a lot of opportunities for misguided messages to come
- 26:37Speaker 2: out or maybe not necessarily as on point message as
- 26:40Speaker 2: they should be. But yeah, there's some there's some low,
- 26:44Speaker 2: low hanging fruit, Kathy, low hanging fruit on messaging.
- 26:47Speaker 7: Right watching that and when I was young, I need
- 26:51Speaker 7: to have I needed to. What I did was sit
- 26:54Speaker 7: down and read about why socialism was wrong, not just socialism,
- 26:59Speaker 7: you know, free everything for everybody, and also giving me
- 27:02Speaker 7: the definition of what a right means.
- 27:07Speaker 2: Yeah, well you know that. You know this the Kathy,
- 27:14Speaker 2: the left has been at this game for years and years,
- 27:16Speaker 2: that whole what is a right? Thing? I remember in
- 27:18Speaker 2: constitutional law when I was a young man. This is
- 27:20Speaker 2: going back quite some time when I was in law school. Uh,
- 27:24Speaker 2: the professor sort of postulated or suggests, you know, is
- 27:27Speaker 2: there not a right to housing and food and shelter?
- 27:31Speaker 2: And and he was a rambling list of socialist agenda.
- 27:34Speaker 2: He was a really hard left professor, and that was
- 27:37Speaker 2: one of the things that he wanted to read into
- 27:39Speaker 2: the constitution, you know, life, liberty, pursuit of happiness, whatever
- 27:43Speaker 2: you know, they grab these words and they sound fluffy
- 27:45Speaker 2: and you know, grand and glorious and suggest that that, oh,
- 27:49Speaker 2: you know, what they really meant is that, you know,
- 27:52Speaker 2: you need food in order to pursue life. And therefore
- 27:54Speaker 2: the Constitution implies that there is a constitutional right right
- 27:58Speaker 2: to food and shelter and and and and clothing and
- 28:01Speaker 2: housing all that. I mean that that's where they spring from.
- 28:05Speaker 2: And because the Constitution is silent on that and does
- 28:07Speaker 2: not grant those specific rights or even recognize them as such,
- 28:11Speaker 2: I don't want to read into it. That's the liberal interpretation,
- 28:14Speaker 2: the expansion the living constitution. This is why you need
- 28:18Speaker 2: strict constructions on the bench, otherwise someone reads into something
- 28:21Speaker 2: that isn't there. Going back to roeby Wade, which came
- 28:26Speaker 2: up yesterday during conversation five forty five right now, fifty
- 28:28Speaker 2: five krc the talk station. Don't go away. More phone
- 28:31Speaker 2: calls and perhaps stack is stupid.
- 28:33Speaker 1: Be right back fifty five the talk station.
- 28:37Speaker 2: Fifty five krs the talk station. It is five fifty
- 28:42Speaker 2: to fifty five KRCD talk station. And I'll be read eeve,
- 28:47Speaker 2: let's jump over the phones. We're getting a stack of stupid.
- 28:49Speaker 2: It because Bobby's on the line. Bobby, what's on your
- 28:51Speaker 2: mind today? Welcome back to the program.
- 28:53Speaker 9: Well, good morning to you, my friends. Seventy two hour window, fates, Flags,
- 28:58Speaker 9: family and handicapped.
- 28:59Speaker 2: Or there you have it. What is it? The over
- 29:03Speaker 2: and undertime? For folks who don't familiar with this, Bobby
- 29:06Speaker 2: calls the violent crime issues and or incidents ahead of time.
- 29:11Speaker 2: So between Friday and Sunday in the greater Cincinnati area,
- 29:14Speaker 2: how many people are gonna be victims of violent crime? Bobby?
- 29:19Speaker 9: We don't want to be pessimistic like we usually are.
- 29:22Speaker 2: You're seven and a half last week and you were
- 29:24Speaker 2: you were wrong because you went over.
- 29:27Speaker 9: Well, we're gonna put it at nine and a half, Louise,
- 29:31Speaker 9: and we're gonna take the under just to be nice.
- 29:33Speaker 2: Well you do an over and under with that number,
- 29:38Speaker 2: a number that high, of course you're gonna take the under.
- 29:42Speaker 9: Well, I don't know in Cincinnati. Anything can happen from
- 29:45Speaker 9: hammers to everything else. You know how they are there.
- 29:48Speaker 2: I understand, my friend, I certainly do. In a nation
- 29:51Speaker 2: where the violent crime rates that it's it's epic low.
- 29:54Speaker 2: You think the city of Cincinnati might get the message
- 29:56Speaker 2: on that one?
- 29:57Speaker 9: Hum I hear that, Hey, I do have it. Another
- 30:00Speaker 9: thing I'd like to put it in. Put it in.
- 30:01Speaker 9: I'm want to take a second. You know what they
- 30:05Speaker 9: just had the thing about the abortion and everything that
- 30:07Speaker 9: are killing children and everything right there, the you know, last.
- 30:12Speaker 2: Day up to the moment of earth.
- 30:13Speaker 9: Yep, they will go ahead, I guarantee you and try
- 30:18Speaker 9: to do everything they can on firearm collections. Firearms. You've
- 30:23Speaker 9: got to guarantee you. They're going to try to go
- 30:24Speaker 9: ahead and do well.
- 30:25Speaker 2: They you know that. That's like saying tomorrow the sun
- 30:28Speaker 2: might come up or not. You know, I mean, they're
- 30:29Speaker 2: always going to try. Fortunately, we've got a Supreme Court
- 30:32Speaker 2: which is more firmly enshrying our Second Amendment rights would
- 30:35Speaker 2: seem to be have no question to them since they
- 30:37Speaker 2: were written down as a right. I have confirmed that
- 30:40Speaker 2: it is a personal right. We have the right to
- 30:42Speaker 2: own a firearm for personal protection. It is a constitutionally
- 30:45Speaker 2: guaranteed right. I don't know how you get around that.
- 30:48Speaker 2: They keep trying. They always will because look, if you're
- 30:52Speaker 2: an Iranian without a firearm, you can't go after your government. Right. Well,
- 30:55Speaker 2: it's amazing what a well armed populace can do by
- 30:58Speaker 2: way of fending off huge armies. Remember Joe bid Well
- 31:02Speaker 2: you can't fight off in f sixteenth, suggesting somehow that
- 31:05Speaker 2: our f sixteens would be used against the American population.
- 31:08Speaker 2: But even if they chose to do that, where are
- 31:10Speaker 2: they going to drop the bombs? Got a nation of
- 31:14Speaker 2: three hundred and fifty million people if a lot of
- 31:15Speaker 2: people are armed, Much like the Afghani's up in the
- 31:18Speaker 2: mountains fought off the Russians for a good decade and
- 31:20Speaker 2: more than a decade for the Americans, both major militaries
- 31:23Speaker 2: ended up packing up and leaving armed. You know, rebels
- 31:28Speaker 2: in the mountains in Cuba were able to overthrow their government.
- 31:31Speaker 2: You know, it's an amazing thing what a well armed
- 31:33Speaker 2: population can do. Just saying here you go over to
- 31:38Speaker 2: the status too. But a suspicious package seen outside a
- 31:41Speaker 2: Tinleytown fire station. This is in Washington, d C. Wasn't
- 31:48Speaker 2: that a premature phrasing? Button? Oh, the word package is
- 31:53Speaker 2: what triggered you, Joe, I get it anyway, anyway, shut
- 31:55Speaker 2: down rush hour traffic. It didn't turn out to be
- 31:59Speaker 2: anything of concern, though. The suspicious device reported about seven
- 32:02Speaker 2: o'clock in the morning when someone saw another person putting
- 32:04Speaker 2: that package into a trash can on the corner of
- 32:07Speaker 2: the street. You'll get the joke in a moment. Police
- 32:11Speaker 2: responded shut down on Wisconsin Avenue northwest from forty the
- 32:14Speaker 2: street all the way down to Warren Street for nearly
- 32:16Speaker 2: two hours. Report says amember the firehouse was approached by
- 32:22Speaker 2: the person who threw away the object behind the building.
- 32:25Speaker 2: That person walked away, and that's when they discovered the
- 32:29Speaker 2: unknown suspicious electronic device with wires exposed after you're shutting
- 32:35Speaker 2: down traffic. Eventually the device was deemed non hazardous. According
- 32:38Speaker 2: to the police report, the device was end quote electronic
- 32:43Speaker 2: sex portable pump device close quotes rasing. And of course,
- 32:48Speaker 2: the scene has since been cleared and the road reopened.
- 32:53Speaker 2: What did you look that one up, Joe, I'm struggling, hey,
- 33:03Speaker 2: let's end to Waco, Texas. Man Texas accused of killing
- 33:05Speaker 2: his cousin, Michael Calhoun, forty three, arrested in charge of
- 33:09Speaker 2: first degree motor murdered. Police responded to the home about
- 33:11Speaker 2: quarter ten till ten in the evening August ninth after
- 33:15Speaker 2: reports of a shooting. They found forty nine year old
- 33:17Speaker 2: Yotanka Calhoun dead. Court to the warrant. Victim's wife present
- 33:21Speaker 2: when Michael Calhoun allegedly shot and killed her husband. Wife
- 33:26Speaker 2: told police Michael Calhoun came to their home asked to
- 33:29Speaker 2: take a shower because he was sweaty. They let him
- 33:32Speaker 2: in and the couple sat on the couch while he
- 33:35Speaker 2: was showering. Michael Calhoun then exited the bathroom and said
- 33:38Speaker 2: this is for you, and then opened fire at Utaka Calhoun.
- 33:43Speaker 2: Victim's wife immediately dropped to the floor to the table.
- 33:46Speaker 2: Michael Calhoun attempted to shoot her but ran out of bullets.
- 33:50Speaker 2: The woman ran into the bedroom closet and Michael said,
- 33:52Speaker 2: don't do it. Court to the document, the wife later
- 33:54Speaker 2: heard Michael Calhoun exit the house. When she exited her bedroom,
- 33:57Speaker 2: she found her husband on the floor with multiple gunshot wounds.
- 34:00Speaker 2: We has head, next shoulder, chest and groin area. Of course,
- 34:03Speaker 2: he's behind bars in the mcclennan County jail. One million
- 34:07Speaker 2: dollars bond.
- 34:09Speaker 5: Do what the hell right?

- 35:11Speaker 2: was going on a tearabout you know, just random people
- 35:13Speaker 2: can fight off big armies. What's going on right now
- 35:16Speaker 2: between the United States and Iran. Yeah, we've wiped out
- 35:19Speaker 2: their entire navy. We've wiped out their entire air force,
- 35:22Speaker 2: and yet here we find ourselves in a quagmire because well,
- 35:24Speaker 2: they've got little tiny minds and little tiny drones and
- 35:28Speaker 2: which are a constant nuisance, and you can't stop it,
- 35:31Speaker 2: and you can stop international trade out of fear that
- 35:34Speaker 2: fear that your multi billion dollar ship's gonna get blown
- 35:37Speaker 2: out of the water by a ten thousand dollars drone
- 35:39Speaker 2: with a bomb hanging on it. Hey, war warfare eight
- 35:43Speaker 2: the same as it used to be. I got more

- 35:46Speaker 2: inflation and yes, our do nothing Senate Jay Rattliffe. I

- 35:52Speaker 2: at eight thirty with Jay, which I love, and of
- 35:54Speaker 2: course Tech Friday with Dave out of Damar and Dave
- 35:57Speaker 2: Williams from the tax Payer Protection Lines. Cool lineup for
- 35:59Speaker 2: tomorrow's Well, let's turn to the phones to what Steve's got. Steve,
- 36:02Speaker 2: thanks for calling this morning. Happy Friday Eve to.
- 36:04Speaker 6: You, Bye, good morning.
- 36:06Speaker 10: Hey. I spoke to you next Thursday about the Gallup
- 36:09Speaker 10: poll for most trusted professions. Do you recall that discussion?
- 36:14Speaker 2: Yeah, vaguely honestly, Steve, that's no insult to you. I
- 36:18Speaker 2: can't remember what I did ten minutes ago.
- 36:20Speaker 10: You have a lot going on in it, all those
- 36:23Speaker 10: all those plates in there.
- 36:24Speaker 6: That's fine.
- 36:25Speaker 10: I thoroughly enjoyed it. I had an eventful week, however.
- 36:29Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 36:29Speaker 10: In the meantime. The next following day, Friday, ended up
- 36:34Speaker 10: in the emergency room and I was back to Good
- 36:36Speaker 10: sam And which treat again received excellent care. Again three
- 36:43Speaker 10: thumbs up for nursing care, but the entire staff as well.
- 36:46Speaker 10: I had one complaint, however, I could watch and that's now.
- 36:50Speaker 10: I could watch Finn, I could not listen to your program,
- 36:54Speaker 10: and I was not happy about that.
- 36:56Speaker 2: So well, I'm sorry, man, I appreciate that compliment very much,
- 37:00Speaker 2: but you're stuck watching MS now? Is that what they
- 37:03Speaker 2: had on loops?
- 37:04Speaker 10: No, I watched like I'd rather watch the cartoon networks
- 37:08Speaker 10: in MS now.
- 37:08Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, And there's always the odds on, there's other.
- 37:12Speaker 10: Choices, but I would have rather listened to Brian Thomas
- 37:15Speaker 10: and going back.
- 37:16Speaker 2: Well, thank you to you. I hope you are. I
- 37:18Speaker 2: hope you are fully recovered from your your hospital state.
- 37:21Speaker 10: I am, I am blessed. I very easily could have died.
- 37:24Speaker 10: I developed two blood clots running each leg and then
- 37:28Speaker 10: I had massive pulmonary en blot. Blood clots on my word,
- 37:33Speaker 10: very easily could have been fatal.
- 37:35Speaker 2: Yes, sir, well, prayers for you and and continued health
- 37:39Speaker 2: to you. Steve. I stay out of trouble man, and
- 37:42Speaker 2: thanks again for miss anyway.
- 37:45Speaker 10: Anyway, I did want to get absolute cuted other than
- 37:48Speaker 10: the fact that I couldn't listen to Brian Thomas, and
- 37:50Speaker 10: I checked with more than one nurse to see if
- 37:52Speaker 10: there's a way to do it. I mean, I've got
- 37:55Speaker 10: when I'm outside working in my gardens and stuff, I
- 37:57Speaker 10: do have, you know, the old fashioned trained history. When
- 37:59Speaker 10: I can listen to you that way.
- 38:01Speaker 2: Well, I've got to get your heart media app as
- 38:03Speaker 2: an app and you can listen to wherever we happen
- 38:04Speaker 2: to be if you want.
- 38:05Speaker 10: To go down that road of light, that's where I've
- 38:08Speaker 10: been listening to your program. I have not made it
- 38:10Speaker 10: back to. So I'll go back to my home stumping
- 38:14Speaker 10: ground something right now. I'm in Montfort Height.
- 38:16Speaker 4: Stay with Steve.
- 38:19Speaker 10: We have it.
- 38:20Speaker 2: You have you have a great day, brother, all right,
- 38:22Speaker 2: I gotta run because uh, I gotta gotta move on
- 38:25Speaker 2: over to the topic five and three seven nine fifty
- 38:27Speaker 2: two three talk fifty eighteen t Fons. Yeah, that's a
- 38:30Speaker 2: certainly a life threatening situation there anyway, Okay, because I
- 38:36Speaker 2: had gone into the last end of the last hour
- 38:38Speaker 2: talking about this relative strength thing, you know, the power
- 38:40Speaker 2: of you know, pee armed citizen r can fight off
- 38:43Speaker 2: big militaries. I talked about the rushes in Afghanistan. I've
- 38:45Speaker 2: talked about the United States in Afghanistan. Yeah, you might
- 38:48Speaker 2: want to mention or maybe the like like Castro in
- 38:50Speaker 2: the mountains at Cuba, the United States trying to beat
- 38:53Speaker 2: the Via Cong. Although that was more organized warfare, it
- 38:55Speaker 2: was still a different type of warfare we fought there.
- 38:58Speaker 2: But here we are, we find ourselves in a quad
- 39:00Speaker 2: with the Iranians. We've eliminated pretty much all of this
- 39:04Speaker 2: stuff and things except for the tiny things that we
- 39:06Speaker 2: can't find, like missiles and drones. They're hidden elsewhere all
- 39:09Speaker 2: over the place. Literally, they're easy to manufacture, they're easy
- 39:12Speaker 2: to buy in the open market if you have friends
- 39:14Speaker 2: like oh, maybe the North Koreans or are still want
- 39:16Speaker 2: to do business with you, on and on and on. Okay,
- 39:19Speaker 2: So there's a practical challenge. We don't have enough missiles
- 39:22Speaker 2: and bombs and military to find every single place they're
- 39:24Speaker 2: hiding these things. Then you only need a couple of
- 39:26Speaker 2: them and demonstrate to the rest of the world, like,
- 39:29Speaker 2: for example, if you try to sneak a ship through
- 39:31Speaker 2: the strait of horror moves, we might blow it up,
- 39:34Speaker 2: operative ord And that statement might, it's the fear that
- 39:38Speaker 2: it might get blown up. You don't need a whole
- 39:40Speaker 2: lot of rockets or mines or little tiny speedboats with
- 39:44Speaker 2: bombs attached to them to keep that fear looming. And
- 39:48Speaker 2: it remains. And even though Donald Trump said, you know,
- 39:51Speaker 2: we have taken the straight of horror moves thanks to
- 39:53Speaker 2: the coordinated efforts to the US military and golf allies,
- 39:55Speaker 2: the seven day average oil it's down. There were flowing
- 39:59Speaker 2: energy through. So it's not and that's a contradictory message
- 40:03Speaker 2: that's coming out. But here's something yesterday that kind of
- 40:06Speaker 2: illustrates my point in the larger concern we've got globally speaking,
- 40:09Speaker 2: whether it's the Iranians or any other singular human being
- 40:12Speaker 2: they might want to do as harm. We've got a
- 40:15Speaker 2: high level Iranian military fisher warning that Tehran might prolong
- 40:19Speaker 2: the war at least until Trump leaves office. Right, they
- 40:23Speaker 2: know this is paying him for him and his reelection
- 40:25Speaker 2: efforts or November election efforts, and of course going into
- 40:28Speaker 2: the presidential election a couple of years, it might be
- 40:30Speaker 2: a drag on the Republican Party. But who knows. Anyway,
- 40:33Speaker 2: Mohamed Reza Nakhdi, we have to attain deterrence so that
- 40:38Speaker 2: the enemy never dares to attack us so we can
- 40:41Speaker 2: live with security. One way is to prolong the war
- 40:44Speaker 2: until we get to the next term of the presidency
- 40:46Speaker 2: and cause attrition so that if anyone else wants to
- 40:49Speaker 2: attack Iran, they will know that there is a cost.
- 40:52Speaker 2: Note he didn't say any particular party, does anybody who
- 40:54Speaker 2: wants to attack us? Oh my god, look what happened to
- 40:57Speaker 2: the US and the quagmire that that brought about if
- 41:00Speaker 2: attacked the Iranians. Pause for a moment, and this guy
- 41:04Speaker 2: went along went further to say, the longer this war lasts,
- 41:07Speaker 2: the more experience we gain, and that we had never
- 41:11Speaker 2: seen a real war, to gain real experience to learn
- 41:15Speaker 2: how to fight with America. They have now in these
- 41:19Speaker 2: five months we have learned, how he said. We have
- 41:21Speaker 2: also seen how the American military is weaker than we perceived,
- 41:27Speaker 2: then pointed out to at least you know, I do
- 41:30Speaker 2: we believe what the Iranian officials tell us, probably a
- 41:32Speaker 2: little bit more leaning to Bagdad Bob than reality. But
- 41:34Speaker 2: listen to what he had to say. Anyway, He claimed
- 41:37Speaker 2: Tay Rodd's manufacturing more missiles than he uses on a
- 41:40Speaker 2: daily basis, which of course conflicts with what we hear
- 41:42Speaker 2: from time to time from our elected officials Trump specifically earlier.
- 41:48Speaker 2: But Daniel Davis has been proven more right than wrong
- 41:50Speaker 2: that Daniel Davis, Steve Dive, he's the one that pointed
- 41:52Speaker 2: out this early on, and much of this chagraned much
- 41:54Speaker 2: of my listeners. Oh he just hates the United States.
- 41:56Speaker 2: Oh he's a fan of Iran or whatever he did
- 41:59Speaker 2: say early You know, they've got a lot of missiles
- 42:01Speaker 2: and drones. We cannot find them all. It would be impossible.
- 42:06Speaker 2: That clearly is the case. And here's the more problematic
- 42:13Speaker 2: point that Mohammed Reisa Knakni made. If there comes a
- 42:20Speaker 2: day when Iran has no more missiles left, that's when
- 42:25Speaker 2: we will be even more dangerous for America because America
- 42:29Speaker 2: has thousands of economic interests throughout the world, and all
- 42:33Speaker 2: of them can be easily destroyed. Now, pause and contemplate
- 42:38Speaker 2: that statement that is as accurate as a day as long,
- 42:42Speaker 2: and even ignoring the whole missile part. Yes, we do
- 42:45Speaker 2: have economic interest throughout the world. We also have naval
- 42:47Speaker 2: bases throughout the world. And we also have economic interests
- 42:52Speaker 2: in the four corners of the United States of America
- 42:54Speaker 2: and its territories. Do we not what happened last week?
- 42:57Speaker 2: Right water treatment facilities were into our water systems, clearly
- 43:02Speaker 2: were vulnerable to hackers. Some suggested it was the Iranians
- 43:05Speaker 2: who did that. There's an easy target and they don't
- 43:08Speaker 2: even need to be close to us to launch that
- 43:10Speaker 2: kind of strike, a strike that could be so much
- 43:12Speaker 2: more devastating than if they had a thousand drones in
- 43:15Speaker 2: Canada and start to launching them into the United States
- 43:17Speaker 2: of America. They don't enjoy a proximity to us, but
- 43:19Speaker 2: they do literally live in our house via the Internet.
- 43:26Speaker 2: They're here. And then what of the countless millions of
- 43:33Speaker 2: people who flowed across our southern border and northern borders
- 43:36Speaker 2: over the period of the Biden administration and even longer,
- 43:38Speaker 2: What of the unknown godaways. What are the people who
- 43:41Speaker 2: don't have a name. We don't know where they came from,
- 43:43Speaker 2: the political ideology, their affiliations, whether or not they might
- 43:46Speaker 2: be members of a terrorist cell, Iranian, Syrian, Chinese Communist
- 43:51Speaker 2: Party or otherwise they're in our house to a certain degree.
- 43:56Speaker 2: And going back to this mister Knakdee statements, Yeah, look
- 44:00Speaker 2: around you at the interests literally everywhere. It's a target
- 44:10Speaker 2: rich environment. Now how much good they get from random
- 44:12Speaker 2: terrorist attacks, I don't know, but you know, two people
- 44:15Speaker 2: take a handful of Saudi Arabians taking over a couple
- 44:18Speaker 2: of airpanes airplanes brought our economy to a screeching halt
- 44:22Speaker 2: in a matter of seconds, and the global economy rippled
- 44:28Speaker 2: with the aftermath of that, and countless billions of dollars
- 44:31Speaker 2: were spent retooling everything on all the airplanes, the TSA,
- 44:35Speaker 2: we got a brand new basically police force at airports
- 44:39Speaker 2: or you know, going doing the body cavity searches. In
- 44:41Speaker 2: the aftermath of nine to eleven. It's a different place
- 44:44Speaker 2: here in the world one moment in time. Basically, I
- 44:48Speaker 2: know I'm consolidating, but you get the idea. Well, we'll
- 44:51Speaker 2: just say eat it just in one day, a ripple effect.
- 44:54Speaker 2: So I think there's something to be said, at least
- 44:56Speaker 2: something to perhaps learn from them. And yeah, they have learned,
- 44:59Speaker 2: and we, I hope are paying attention to the dramatic
- 45:01Speaker 2: change in military and how warfare is waged. You can
- 45:05Speaker 2: keep the world's biggest military, the biggest one that has
- 45:08Speaker 2: ever been conceived in the world's history, the United States
- 45:12Speaker 2: of America, and drag out this conflict. It's one country
- 45:17Speaker 2: basically with no armed forces anymore, just drones and little
- 45:23Speaker 2: speedboats and mines. And look at the economic impact they've
- 45:27Speaker 2: been able to have and how long it's taken us
- 45:29Speaker 2: so far with I don't think a whole lot to
- 45:31Speaker 2: show for it at this point. Maybe I'm wrong. Corey's
- 45:34Speaker 2: on the phone, Cory, you got to hang on it.
- 45:35Speaker 2: It's already six seventeen am out of time. Just so
- 45:37Speaker 2: ali the clock. I need to pay closer attention. And
- 45:39Speaker 2: let me recommend Fasten pro roofing the experts at fast
- 45:43Speaker 2: and pro the best six here fifty five KCVY talk station.
- 45:48Speaker 2: Let's go to the phones. Corey was kind enough to
- 45:50Speaker 2: hold over the break five on three, seven, four nine,
- 45:51Speaker 2: fifty eight hundred eight two three taco a time by
- 45:54Speaker 2: fifty even at and t phone. Corey, Welcome the show,
- 45:56Speaker 2: Happy Friday Eve to.
- 45:57Speaker 11: You having Friday. Bryan listening today from Falstoria.
- 46:03Speaker 9: Ohio on my heart app cool. Yeah.
- 46:10Speaker 11: Now, I don't know if you touched on it yet,
- 46:11Speaker 11: but parts of the NFA was ruled unconstitutional a week ago,
- 46:15Speaker 11: given seven days for the government to appeal it or
- 46:18Speaker 11: try to stay which the clock ran out yesterday on that.
- 46:21Speaker 2: Yeah, the first the first suppressor purchase without having to
- 46:25Speaker 2: fill out the federal forums was done last night at midnight.
- 46:28Speaker 2: I think it was either that or the night before
- 46:30Speaker 2: at midnight. I saw an article on that just this morning.
- 46:32Speaker 2: I'm over on bright Bart Yeah.
- 46:35Speaker 11: I see that as well. Oh, it's it's a small
- 46:38Speaker 11: win for freedom.
- 46:39Speaker 2: Yeah. I believe the whole NFA is unconstitutional.
- 46:45Speaker 11: Every again, all my opinion is unconstitutional. Just like in Ohio,
- 46:50Speaker 11: I can go around and carry sixteen pistols loaded in
- 46:54Speaker 11: my vehicle, but it's still a crime. The fellon needs
- 46:57Speaker 11: to carry it loaded rifle in a vehicle on a
- 46:59Speaker 11: high which Ohio lawmakers there's a bill proposed called the
- 47:05Speaker 11: Right to Carry Act in Ohio, which they are sitting
- 47:08Speaker 11: on and they'll probably won't do anything with it, but
- 47:12Speaker 11: it would allow you to carry any weapons that you choose,
- 47:14Speaker 11: just like most of the jority of all the other states.
- 47:18Speaker 11: That just shows how Ohio rhinos, you know, showing their
- 47:22Speaker 11: true colors and Columbus.
- 47:24Speaker 2: Well, I guess I appreciate it, Corey. I didn't realize
- 47:27Speaker 2: that was even a lawn ah, to be quite honest
- 47:29Speaker 2: with you, and you know, being a person who does
- 47:31Speaker 2: go to the gun range regularly with my long guns
- 47:34Speaker 2: in my car. There, I set it out loud, had
- 47:38Speaker 2: no idea. Didn't realize that was along the books. Hmm.
- 47:42Speaker 2: I wonder if I'm gonna get in trouble since I
- 47:49Speaker 2: got a minute left in this segment, you feel free
- 47:50Speaker 2: to call if I went through you seven four nine fifty
- 47:52Speaker 2: five two three talk five five fifty on eighteen t phones.
- 47:54Speaker 2: Job matteries over WCPO because of all the significant damage
- 47:59Speaker 2: down to trees he he got. He reached out and
- 48:02Speaker 2: got some advice on if trees come down in your yard,
- 48:06Speaker 2: so a corner, better business, fewer. Here's what John MATTERI
- 48:08Speaker 2: is reporting what you should probably do, what most insurers
- 48:12Speaker 2: typically covered if your this is this tree in my
- 48:15Speaker 2: yard that has done damage covered on my insurance policy.
- 48:19Speaker 2: So here it is. If the tree hits your home
- 48:22Speaker 2: or deck, homeowners insurance probably going to be paying for
- 48:24Speaker 2: the cleanup and repairs. If it hits your car, turn
- 48:26Speaker 2: to your auto insurer for repairs. If a tree hits landscaping,
- 48:32Speaker 2: it suggested you might need a landscaping rider on your
- 48:35Speaker 2: homeowner's insurance coverage if that's going to be covered. And honestly,
- 48:39Speaker 2: in the entire my sixty years of life experience, I
- 48:42Speaker 2: didn't even realize it was a landscaping rider thing out
- 48:45Speaker 2: there an option available, so maybe something Paulette, my wife,
- 48:48Speaker 2: you might want to consider that tree lands in your
- 48:52Speaker 2: neighbor's yard. Legally you are not responsible as a homeowner,
- 48:54Speaker 2: but if you're going to be a good neighbor, you
- 48:56Speaker 2: might want to offer to help out on that one.
- 48:58Speaker 2: And finally, if a tree land on your lawn sucks
- 49:02Speaker 2: to be you, insurance typically will not cover anything, meaning
- 49:04Speaker 2: you are going to have a bill from someone to
- 49:06Speaker 2: come and saw it down or saw it up and
- 49:09Speaker 2: take it away. So some quick information there, you may
- 49:13Speaker 2: have an insurance claim. I think it's a good thing
- 49:16Speaker 2: that our house didn't get hit by the blimbs that
- 49:18Speaker 2: came down off our maple tree. That is definitely not
- 49:21Speaker 2: an insured loss. We had to cover that one because
- 49:24Speaker 2: it didn't hit anything, So I think we came out
- 49:25Speaker 2: on the good side on that one. And spite of
- 49:27Speaker 2: the fact, way to pay people to deal with the
- 49:28Speaker 2: aftermath not inexpensive six twenty six fifty five car see
- 49:33Speaker 2: de talk station. You know what's expensive, Duke energy bills
- 49:36Speaker 2: or whatever. Whoever you're in. Well, we've got a system
- 49:40Speaker 2: problem here. Chuck Ingram isn't able to do his traffick reports.
- 49:43Speaker 2: Now that issue been reported up the flag pole, probably
- 49:46Speaker 2: someone out there, somewhere in the country is responsible for
- 49:50Speaker 2: fixing it. That person does not live anywhere near the
- 49:53Speaker 2: towers of Kenwood. So apologies for no traffic and also
- 49:58Speaker 2: apologies for the phone system, which is continuing to be
- 50:01Speaker 2: a problem for us. It has been now for weeks.
- 50:03Speaker 2: The static that you hear when callers call in is
- 50:05Speaker 2: not fifty five KRC. It is the company's phone system. Ahem. Yeah,
- 50:16Speaker 2: and Joe Strecker lost his phone this morning or didn't
- 50:19Speaker 2: bring it to work with him accidentally, which sucks. Having
- 50:24Speaker 2: a great day, right, Joe wooh five three, seven, four nine,
- 50:28Speaker 2: fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two three talk
- 50:31Speaker 2: found five fifty on AT and T phones, fifty five
- 50:33Speaker 2: KRC dot iHeart dot Com, where you can get your
- 50:35Speaker 2: iHeartMedia app and stream the audio wherever you happen to
- 50:38Speaker 2: be and get the podcast the conversation we've head here
- 50:42Speaker 2: in the morning show, including Judgejennena Paul Tony yesterday. Coming
- 50:44Speaker 2: up after the top of the our news, we get
- 50:45Speaker 2: Congressman Warren Davidson returning. Is he gonna be talking on
- 50:48Speaker 2: the staticyphone, Joe? We hope he calls in, Congressman Davidson,
- 50:54Speaker 2: if you're out there, we're counting on you. Man. Oh,
- 51:01Speaker 2: that's right, because his numbers on your cell phone, which
- 51:03Speaker 2: you don't have. I forgot about that. I think I've
- 51:05Speaker 2: got it though I've got it on mine. I do
- 51:08Speaker 2: believe I will do. I will definitely check on that
- 51:11Speaker 2: for you, Joe, so you can call him on the
- 51:14Speaker 2: staticky phone. Sometimes you just got to laugh when you're
- 51:23Speaker 2: faced with well challenges. It's out of your hands, you
- 51:26Speaker 2: can't do anything about it. You may as well chuckle
- 51:27Speaker 2: at it. Woman rescued by a bystander after her vehicle
- 51:30Speaker 2: went into the Ohio River Yesterday a corningly since I
- 51:32Speaker 2: Fire Department happened near Anderson Ferry Boat Ramp. Fire Department
- 51:36Speaker 2: said a woman's car floated fifty to seventy five yards
- 51:39Speaker 2: from where it entered the water when a bystander went
- 51:42Speaker 2: into the water and freed the woman and got her
- 51:45Speaker 2: out through the vehicle's back lift gate. Fire department arrived,
- 51:49Speaker 2: got both people out of the water safely. Women taking
- 51:51Speaker 2: to the hospital non life threatening injuries. Dive teams apparently
- 51:54Speaker 2: got to be assisting with removing the vehicle from the
- 51:56Speaker 2: river once weather conditions approve. What an amazing thing. Props
- 52:01Speaker 2: to the hero. A new parking lot coming three CDC
- 52:11Speaker 2: got the city's approval to demolish the former Crossroad Health
- 52:14Speaker 2: Center building Sin Sinny's over the Rhine neighborhood and replace
- 52:18Speaker 2: it with a fifty to one space surface parking lot.
- 52:23Speaker 2: I thought they hated cars downtown, Joe, weren't we supposed
- 52:25Speaker 2: to have like a walking community. What's going on? Yeah,
- 52:34Speaker 2: get rid of health and put up a parking lot.
- 52:36Speaker 2: They pave Paradise and put up a parking lot. Jonny
- 52:38Speaker 2: Mitchell check it out. Organization plans to replace that with
- 52:41Speaker 2: a fifty one space parking lot. Like I said, acording
- 52:43Speaker 2: to the insame business career property previously housed Crossroads before the
- 52:46Speaker 2: health center moved to the new facility on Ray Street,
- 52:51Speaker 2: says the parking plan follows an earlier mixed use development
- 52:54Speaker 2: concept that three CDC determined was not feasible at this time.
- 53:00Speaker 2: I think that means there's no money for it. That's
- 53:01Speaker 2: how I'm reading it. Anyway. Properties near Liberty and Vine
- 53:05Speaker 2: Streets where a crossroads operator. If we're moving again to
- 53:07Speaker 2: the far the new OTR facility OTR parking project follows
- 53:14Speaker 2: Crossroad Healthcare's move. So new facility is I guess up
- 53:18Speaker 2: and running. Planned parking lot marks a change from previous
- 53:22Speaker 2: redevelopment plans. Missus Curry reported three CDC had considered a
- 53:26Speaker 2: mention once again that mixed use development for the site.
- 53:28Speaker 2: They determined that the new building wasn't feasible. So again
- 53:32Speaker 2: this is a repetitious reporting an article on this over
- 53:35Speaker 2: and over they say the same thing. It's pretty strange.
- 53:41Speaker 2: Don't use artificial intelligence to write your news articles. See
- 53:47Speaker 2: that's one of the tell tell signs they have done that,
- 53:50Speaker 2: the same fun fact over and over again. You never
- 53:52Speaker 2: reach any additional information although the the article runs for
- 53:55Speaker 2: three solid pages, and of course tens of thousands of
- 54:00Speaker 2: dollars in storm damage happened the other day, maybe millions
- 54:02Speaker 2: and millions during yesterday or earlier this week. Storms west
- 54:05Speaker 2: side particularly hit hard. We have a report of at
- 54:08Speaker 2: least one home or homeowner specifically, just one singular guy,
- 54:12Speaker 2: tens of thousands of dollars. So again, going back to
- 54:18Speaker 2: the insurance, it's a good thing to have insurance. You
- 54:19Speaker 2: don't want to use it, but that's why you pay
- 54:21Speaker 2: for it. Six thirty five fifty five kr SE detalk stations,
- 54:26Speaker 2: zimmer heating and air conditioning. Those are it? How about that?
- 54:31Speaker 2: Going back to Cory's earlier point, just slightly overstated, you
- 54:34Speaker 2: can carry long guns in your car. They just have
- 54:38Speaker 2: to be get a closed package boxer case out of
- 54:40Speaker 2: each kept in a compartment in the trunk. Can only
- 54:43Speaker 2: be reached by leaving the vehicle in a rack or
- 54:46Speaker 2: holder in plain site. But it has to be racked open,
- 54:49Speaker 2: and then there's a plane site. If you're it's a
- 54:51Speaker 2: certain length of firearmor requirement, so twenty four inches longer
- 54:55Speaker 2: over an eighteen inch barrel. It can be in plane site,
- 54:57Speaker 2: carried in a car if the action is open or
- 54:59Speaker 2: the upon his stripped. So if you can't accomplish that,
- 55:03Speaker 2: then you better put it in the trunk. So you
- 55:05Speaker 2: are allowed to transport them. They just must be in
- 55:07Speaker 2: one of those states. Over the phones, Who's first, Joseph,
- 55:11Speaker 2: it looks like Hank, Mike, hold on, Hank, thanks for
- 55:14Speaker 2: calling this morning. Happy Thursday, Marin Brian.
- 55:19Speaker 3: The reason for the long gun band being they say
- 55:23Speaker 3: you can't carry a loaded gun.
- 55:25Speaker 1: I just said that.
- 55:26Speaker 2: I literally just said that.
- 55:29Speaker 3: The reason they don't let you carry a loaded gun
- 55:32Speaker 3: isn't so much as an affront to the Second Amendment.
- 55:36Speaker 3: The main reason for it was poaching. Now I realize
- 55:39Speaker 3: that doesn't excuse the fact that it's against the Second Amendment,
- 55:43Speaker 3: but that was the original reason for it, was to
- 55:46Speaker 3: prevent poaching.
- 55:47Speaker 2: Huh, that's pretty that. Actually it makes sense, Hank. You
- 55:50Speaker 2: know what I think is, even though that law may
- 55:53Speaker 2: still be on the books, I think if it was
- 55:55Speaker 2: retested under the Brewin decision post bruined, the world is
- 55:59Speaker 2: a different place. I don't think the founding fathers, I
- 56:01Speaker 2: don't think the founding Fathers prohibited carrying loaded muskets, let's say,
- 56:05Speaker 2: in a horse drawn carriage. So a parallel can be
- 56:09Speaker 2: made with that too. So what was it like in
- 56:11Speaker 2: the Second Amendment? Was in trined? Well, there you have it.
- 56:13Speaker 2: You were allowed to transport firearms that were loaded.
- 56:16Speaker 9: Mike.
- 56:16Speaker 2: Let's go see what Mike's got this morning. Thanks for holding.
- 56:18Speaker 2: Welcome to the show. Mike.
- 56:20Speaker 11: Hey, right, you're reading that article and then ago talking
- 56:22Speaker 11: about they wrote it with AI.
- 56:25Speaker 6: Something where any professors.
- 56:27Speaker 11: They're starting to give their students, so this is what I.
- 56:30Speaker 10: Want your term paper and put a area in a
- 56:36Speaker 10: blank area.
- 56:36Speaker 9: They'll ride it in white.
- 56:37Speaker 11: Yeah, include Britney spears or something, and I'm make it
- 56:42Speaker 11: really small and they student copies and fast it the
- 56:44Speaker 11: AI and then professor just had a search for Britney
- 56:48Speaker 11: spears and.
- 56:48Speaker 9: I got you cheated.
- 56:50Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a couple of stories floating on around that.
- 56:52Speaker 2: I didn't even realize that that. I guess when you
- 56:55Speaker 2: scan something into artificial intelligence, if there is like print
- 56:59Speaker 2: that a human being can't read somehow or other, I
- 57:01Speaker 2: guess the scan a document will be read by AI.
- 57:04Speaker 2: So the students didn't know there was a Q in
- 57:06Speaker 2: there to say mention Britney spears. I think one of
- 57:08Speaker 2: them was like Morocco or something in the context of
- 57:11Speaker 2: a topic that never would have come up with those
- 57:14Speaker 2: names in it. And when as soon as the professor
- 57:16Speaker 2: saw it, they said, well they used AI for the
- 57:18Speaker 2: paper fail. And as it turns out, I think was
- 57:21Speaker 2: it thirty four or thirty out of thirty six students,
- 57:24Speaker 2: thirty four of them were flagged as using AI. It
- 57:26Speaker 2: was really an overwhelming percentage. So welcome to modern college. Yeah,
- 57:33Speaker 2: welcome to college. Appreciate that, brother, have a fantastic day.
- 57:39Speaker 2: Which direction do we go here?
- 57:45Speaker 8: Oh?
- 57:45Speaker 2: Let me just show this out there because I thought
- 57:47Speaker 2: of this the other day when I saw the article
- 57:48Speaker 2: about it, and it was an older article. But there's
- 57:52Speaker 2: a I don't know how you feel about batting. I'm
- 57:54Speaker 2: of the mind I don't care if you bet. I
- 57:55Speaker 2: don't understand why gambling's ever been illegal. I understand saved
- 57:58Speaker 2: me from my self legislation. This is what people do
- 58:00Speaker 2: all the time. Ooh, it's sinful, Erico, we're gonna pass
- 58:03Speaker 2: the law. Well, it's sinful into your definition of sin.
- 58:06Speaker 2: It's my money. Let me do what the hell I
- 58:07Speaker 2: want with it. Let me just let me determine my
- 58:09Speaker 2: own moral standards, my own moral compass right now. Of
- 58:13Speaker 2: course people have gambling additions and problems. I understand that,
- 58:16Speaker 2: but you know, bad decisions can result in bad consequences,
- 58:20Speaker 2: which is the reason you really don't need a legal deterrent.
- 58:25Speaker 2: I know I felt that way about drug criminal criminalizing
- 58:28Speaker 2: drug abuse, but as it turns out, drug addicts are
- 58:31Speaker 2: a huge, huge drain on societal resources and they create
- 58:36Speaker 2: terrible situations. So yeah, if you let them use drugs
- 58:39Speaker 2: in your city turns into San Francisco. So there's got
- 58:41Speaker 2: to be a balance there. But in terms of gambling, now,
- 58:45Speaker 2: we've they legalized online betting sports betting, right well, there's
- 58:48Speaker 2: a new build that's being flowed around in Columbus, Ohio
- 58:50Speaker 2: Hospitals nine to seventy one which would ban sports betting statewide,
- 58:57Speaker 2: cap wagers at one hundred dollars and bar forms of
- 59:02Speaker 2: bets like parlays and prop bets and in real time
- 59:04Speaker 2: gambling while the event is going on. That would be
- 59:09Speaker 2: the first state. The higo would be if this is
- 59:12Speaker 2: passes where it rolled back some of the legal online betting.
- 59:17Speaker 2: So let me ask you why why, okay, like cigarettes smoking,
- 59:22Speaker 2: we all know universally cigarettes caused cancer. They're dangerous. They
- 59:26Speaker 2: cause a lot of medical issues and harm which you
- 59:28Speaker 2: and I ultimately end up paying for. They've got rule,
- 59:30Speaker 2: they got taxes heaped down upon them. They're smoking bans
- 59:33Speaker 2: all over the place. The FDA, knowing it is a
- 59:35Speaker 2: dangerous product yet sold on the open market, could outright
- 59:39Speaker 2: ban cigarettes. Why don't they do that because they liked
- 59:42Speaker 2: the tax revenue, don't they? How did you end up
- 59:44Speaker 2: with legalized gambling ignoring the reason gambling prohibitions were on
- 59:49Speaker 2: the books in the first place, which again I object to.
- 59:51Speaker 2: Here we find ourselves where they open up the realities
- 59:54Speaker 2: of online gambling. Why do you think they legalize lottery
- 59:56Speaker 2: because people were making money on numbers games out in
- 59:59Speaker 2: the world was criminal conduct. I guess the state said,
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: h we need a slice of that. So once you
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: legitimize it in the form of the state being in control.
- 1:00:07Speaker 2: But oh, I guess it's okay, then we're enough, fund
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: the schools, fund the schools. Well, then it's okay. We
- 1:00:13Speaker 2: can throw away our arguments about gambling being immoral or
- 1:00:16Speaker 2: ruining family lives or a stupid waster of scarce resources.
- 1:00:20Speaker 2: But the state gets money, it's going to go to
- 1:00:21Speaker 2: the schools. Then we're going to allow it. Same thing
- 1:00:23Speaker 2: with well, casinos gambling illegal. You can't have casinos open
- 1:00:27Speaker 2: up casinos and everybody makes money. Look, it's happening in
- 1:00:30Speaker 2: southwest Indiana. Why don't we get a slice of the action? Right,
- 1:00:34Speaker 2: legalization of marijuana driven in large part by fat tax
- 1:00:39Speaker 2: dollars that will be reaped by the industry generally speaking,
- 1:00:42Speaker 2: and additional taxes levied on it because well, we went
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: ahead and legalized it. Lots of dangers of smoke in marijuana.
- 1:00:47Speaker 2: You know, it was a schedule it's still a Schedule
- 1:00:49Speaker 2: one federal drug. Right. Wow, I know it's okay medical
- 1:00:52Speaker 2: marijuana plus taxes. So here you have this revelation. I
- 1:00:57Speaker 2: guess the representatives State Representative Jonathan Numa and Bet Lair
- 1:01:01Speaker 2: introduced the bill, back by a bunch of other Republican
- 1:01:04Speaker 2: co sponsors, worried about the problems of gambling. Okay, the
- 1:01:11Speaker 2: lives that have been ruled, the problems that arise from it,
- 1:01:14Speaker 2: and of course online gambling makes it so much easier
- 1:01:17Speaker 2: to place bets. Well, let's take away that ability and
- 1:01:20Speaker 2: require people to actually go to a physical place, a
- 1:01:25Speaker 2: casino and make their bets there subject to limitations like
- 1:01:30Speaker 2: amount of limitations. Well, that just drives people into a
- 1:01:32Speaker 2: casino where there are other options, presumably without one hundred
- 1:01:35Speaker 2: dollars caps on wagers. Oh, I'm gonna go play Rulett Wheel.
- 1:01:38Speaker 2: There's a smart move. You're in an environment where more
- 1:01:42Speaker 2: of it's there. But why wouldn't you just ban all
- 1:01:44Speaker 2: that outright? We used to have no online sports gambling.
- 1:01:47Speaker 2: Now we're going to take it away from because of
- 1:01:49Speaker 2: all the problems that cropped up after we legalize it.
- 1:01:51Speaker 2: Now they're not doing that. They're just pairing it back,
- 1:01:56Speaker 2: pairing it back, which means there's still going to get
- 1:02:00Speaker 2: the benefit of the tax dollars adgitional levies that are
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: waged upon online on online betting. Yeah, it's all about
- 1:02:07Speaker 2: the money, folks. Six forty seven fifty five KRC the
- 1:02:11Speaker 2: talk station, stick around more to talk about you get
- 1:02:13Speaker 2: to trees in your yard. Congressman Warren Davidson from the
- 1:02:17Speaker 2: top of the our news and looking very much forward
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: to that one. And Darby's on the lines. Let's take
- 1:02:22Speaker 2: Darby's call. Darby, Welcome to the program. Happy Friday.
- 1:02:26Speaker 10: Hi, Happy Friday.
- 1:02:27Speaker 12: Thank you for taking my call.
- 1:02:28Speaker 2: Happy too.
- 1:02:30Speaker 12: So I'm calling because a comment that you said I
- 1:02:33Speaker 12: really don't agree with, and that is, you know, regarding
- 1:02:36Speaker 12: the ban on gambling. Well you you know, you do
- 1:02:39Speaker 12: you kind of mentality, And I think as Christians, it
- 1:02:42Speaker 12: is our job to fight against evil. And we know
- 1:02:47Speaker 12: that gambling leads to destructive behavior. It damages, can damage children. Sure,
- 1:02:52Speaker 12: they can damage families, and the same thing with murder
- 1:02:55Speaker 12: and drugs, well you do you well, they're they're legal,
- 1:02:58Speaker 12: and we should and I think it's since we should
- 1:03:00Speaker 12: fight for what is good and you know these things
- 1:03:04Speaker 12: are all destructive and I think it is our job
- 1:03:09Speaker 12: to you know, stand.
- 1:03:10Speaker 2: Up for well once again, you know, my libertarian principles
- 1:03:13Speaker 2: don't allow me to conclude that anyone outside of you know,
- 1:03:16Speaker 2: people I actually know, share those particular values. We live
- 1:03:20Speaker 2: in the world. It has more than just Christians in it,
- 1:03:23Speaker 2: and more than one ideological set of principles. That's why
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: morality can be subjective. Through one lens, something might be immoral.
- 1:03:29Speaker 2: Through a different lens, something maybe completely moral, yet still destructive.
- 1:03:34Speaker 2: And that's the point I always go back to. Listen,
- 1:03:37Speaker 2: you use drugs, you may very well die, you'll ruin
- 1:03:40Speaker 2: your family, you'll steal from people you thoroughly love. This
- 1:03:43Speaker 2: is the warning signs that history has demonstrated happen every
- 1:03:46Speaker 2: single time. Shouldn't that be enough of a threat or
- 1:03:49Speaker 2: concern for people to not choose to use drugs in
- 1:03:51Speaker 2: the first place? I guess not because they do. But see,
- 1:03:54Speaker 2: because we don't live in a theocracy. Theoretical or theocratic
- 1:03:58Speaker 2: principles put into law would fly in the face of
- 1:04:01Speaker 2: the second of the First Amendment, pre exercise of we're
- 1:04:04Speaker 2: living of religion and the establishment clause. So I understand
- 1:04:10Speaker 2: the point where you're coming from, but I don't think
- 1:04:13Speaker 2: we can paint with that broad of a brush in
- 1:04:15Speaker 2: a country that allows for all forms of belief systems,
- 1:04:18Speaker 2: harmful as they may.
- 1:04:19Speaker 12: But then well, then if we allow it for all
- 1:04:22Speaker 12: forms of belief systems, then I think the Islamic you know,
- 1:04:27Speaker 12: the Islamic regime, then that should be okay as well.
- 1:04:31Speaker 12: It should be okay to beat your wife or be header.
- 1:04:33Speaker 3: But it's not okay, no, no.
- 1:04:35Speaker 12: Founded Judeo Christian values. And so I think that mentality.
- 1:04:39Speaker 12: I mean, if if that was the case, and the
- 1:04:41Speaker 12: Founding Fathers wouldn't have put in the h you know,
- 1:04:46Speaker 12: First Amendment right to free speech because in the Islamic
- 1:04:49Speaker 12: regime they do not allow this. And so I think
- 1:04:52Speaker 12: you can get a little muddied when you're taking that stance.
- 1:04:56Speaker 12: And I think we need to go back to the
- 1:04:58Speaker 12: founding the documents, go back to the founding of our country,
- 1:05:02Speaker 12: and you know we'll chose and implement them.
- 1:05:05Speaker 2: Well, Darby, why didn't the the Founding Fathers then just
- 1:05:08Speaker 2: have a theo theocratic government saying Christian principles will be
- 1:05:12Speaker 2: the default law religion for the United States of America.
- 1:05:17Speaker 12: Well, and I think you are unalienable rights which were
- 1:05:20Speaker 12: given to us by God. Those cannot be taken away.
- 1:05:23Speaker 12: And I think that what just goes without saying that
- 1:05:27Speaker 12: the right to choose one's alienable rights, the.
- 1:05:30Speaker 2: Right to choose one's religion. So within our country, it
- 1:05:33Speaker 2: is okay to be Islamic, it is okay to believe
- 1:05:37Speaker 2: in surial law, it is okay to believe in thinking.
- 1:05:40Speaker 2: It's okay to beat up your wife. But we have
- 1:05:42Speaker 2: a criminal justice system. So if you apply those rules
- 1:05:45Speaker 2: to your life and actually beat your wife, independent of religion,
- 1:05:50Speaker 2: there's a law in the books that says you can't
- 1:05:52Speaker 2: do that. It's battery, it's assault, and that is illegal
- 1:05:55Speaker 2: under any religion. So in a non religious application of
- 1:05:58Speaker 2: criminal law, there's still guilt of violating the criminal laws
- 1:06:01Speaker 2: of the United States of America. If they don't like that,
- 1:06:03Speaker 2: they can move to a country where Sharia law is
- 1:06:05Speaker 2: accepted and they can beat women up. The question of
- 1:06:08Speaker 2: which value is more.
- 1:06:08Speaker 12: Important, right, And unfortunately they're allowing Suri law in their states,
- 1:06:15Speaker 12: and I think Ohio is getting ready to potentially put
- 1:06:19Speaker 12: forth legislation that does not allow Shari law.
- 1:06:22Speaker 2: What you can't ban the concept of Sharia law, you
- 1:06:27Speaker 2: can ban via the criminal justice system, which is what
- 1:06:30Speaker 2: I pointed out some of the elements of Sharia law
- 1:06:33Speaker 2: if they are in fact implemented. So just because some
- 1:06:37Speaker 2: community wants to live in a Sharia law and they
- 1:06:39Speaker 2: go around and they voluntarily cover their face as the
- 1:06:42Speaker 2: women do, and they are told they're not allowed to drive,
- 1:06:44Speaker 2: it doesn't mean the DMV won't issue of a driver's license.
- 1:06:47Speaker 2: It's just that there's some guide at home that says
- 1:06:49Speaker 2: you're not allowed to drive. Well, they're entitled to follow
- 1:06:52Speaker 2: that belief system. But you know is it kidnapping? I mean,
- 1:06:56Speaker 2: is there some spousal abuse that can be levied. Again,
- 1:06:59Speaker 2: there's differences between your belief systems and the application of
- 1:07:01Speaker 2: criminal law. So yeah, we do have a lot of
- 1:07:04Speaker 2: communities that are very, very fundamentalist in their mentality. There's
- 1:07:07Speaker 2: a lot of Jewish communities, like for in New York,
- 1:07:09Speaker 2: they have their own sort of police force. The police
- 1:07:12Speaker 2: is their community acting in coordination, in concert with the
- 1:07:16Speaker 2: real police. Much in the same way some communities have
- 1:07:18Speaker 2: their own militias even though it's a police department. You
- 1:07:21Speaker 2: can do that. But behind all of that is a
- 1:07:24Speaker 2: structure of criminal law, both state and federal, and any
- 1:07:27Speaker 2: violation of it can subject you to prosecution. Six fifty
- 1:07:30Speaker 2: seven Right now fifty five Krcity Talk Station and Congressman
- 1:07:33Speaker 2: Warren Davidson after the top of the ir news war
- 1:07:35Speaker 2: inflation and maybe they do nothing, Senate, don't go away.
- 1:07:39Speaker 2: We put the app in halp seven oh five here
- 1:07:44Speaker 2: at fifty five Krcity Talk Station, Happy Friday Extra Special
- 1:07:48Speaker 2: on a Thursday, the Return, which is a running gig
- 1:07:51Speaker 2: here on the fifty five carssee morning show. Congressman Warren Davidson,
- 1:07:54Speaker 2: Welcome back to the fifty five carssee morning show. My friend.
- 1:07:57Speaker 2: It's always a pleasure speaking with.
- 1:07:58Speaker 13: You, always looking forward to it. Nice to talk with you, Brian.
- 1:08:02Speaker 2: Thanks man, And you heard the top of the our news.
- 1:08:04Speaker 2: And earlier in the week, we had US Energy Secretary
- 1:08:07Speaker 2: of Energy Chris Wright say, along with other quotes to
- 1:08:10Speaker 2: this effect. On Sunday alone, over twenty million barrels left
- 1:08:12Speaker 2: the Arabian golf region, which is above pre conflict average.
- 1:08:16Speaker 2: Also comment about how many boats had gone through the
- 1:08:18Speaker 2: Strait of Horror Moves. We had Trump yesterday saying the
- 1:08:21Speaker 2: United States has total control of the Strait of Horror Moves,
- 1:08:24Speaker 2: which to me suggests traffic is flowing through again. However,
- 1:08:27Speaker 2: according to Kepler and all the other reports, ship tracking
- 1:08:30Speaker 2: data shows no, that's not even remotely the case. In fact,
- 1:08:33Speaker 2: one analyst over at Keppler said, it is not possible
- 1:08:36Speaker 2: to reconcile the disparity between what we see and what
- 1:08:39Speaker 2: he is quoting. So is oil moving through or not?
- 1:08:43Speaker 2: And if it's really not, which the data and analysts
- 1:08:46Speaker 2: suggests based on satellite satellite photographs of ships and ship
- 1:08:49Speaker 2: monitoring data, why would Trump say something like that? Congressman Davidson.
- 1:08:55Speaker 13: Yeah, you'd have to ask Trump why he says a
- 1:08:58Speaker 13: range of things that he says. You know, for America
- 1:09:00Speaker 13: here though, we want, you know, America to prevail. The
- 1:09:05Speaker 13: blockade is certainly locking down oil we don't want through
- 1:09:10Speaker 13: so you know, when people are trying to pay a
- 1:09:12Speaker 13: ran for oil and bypass sanctions and everything which was
- 1:09:16Speaker 13: going on before this war began. On February twenty eighth,
- 1:09:22Speaker 13: you know, the blockade made sense. You've got you can
- 1:09:25Speaker 13: control every Iranian ship if you want, and that's part
- 1:09:28Speaker 13: of the purpose of the blockade. As for can we
- 1:09:32Speaker 13: safely escort enough ships out? I don't think we can
- 1:09:35Speaker 13: escort enough ships out to make up for you know,
- 1:09:38Speaker 13: the pre conflict flow through the straight up or moves.
- 1:09:42Speaker 13: But you certainly are seeing some flow through. So yeah,
- 1:09:45Speaker 13: I think that's probably what you're seeing is you know,
- 1:09:49Speaker 13: I guess world wars there. But yeah, there is some
- 1:09:52Speaker 13: oil flowing through. You know how much I think the
- 1:09:55Speaker 13: markets will tell you not as much as before.
- 1:09:58Speaker 2: Right, price of oil, I guess jumped up yesterday to
- 1:10:01Speaker 2: just under ninety bucks a barrow, which is not providing
- 1:10:03Speaker 2: any relief at the pump. And you know, I think
- 1:10:05Speaker 2: about inflation generally speaking, and most of the inflationary realities
- 1:10:09Speaker 2: we're dealing with completely out of Donald Trump's hands. He's
- 1:10:12Speaker 2: not directly responsible for so much of it, you know,
- 1:10:14Speaker 2: global supply demand issues that we have no control over.
- 1:10:17Speaker 2: But insofar as the price of the barrel of oil,
- 1:10:20Speaker 2: I think the Democrats that's the one thing they might
- 1:10:22Speaker 2: have going into Novembers, so they can blame you know, Trump,
- 1:10:24Speaker 2: the Republicans if you want it. They want to paint
- 1:10:26Speaker 2: with a broadbrush for this conflict, whether it was proper
- 1:10:29Speaker 2: or not. As a different story. But there is a
- 1:10:31Speaker 2: sad reality that by launching these strikes against Iran, they
- 1:10:35Speaker 2: have figured out how to control the straight of horror moves,
- 1:10:37Speaker 2: which has had a global impact. I think that's an
- 1:10:39Speaker 2: undeniable reality. Or maybe I missed some a point in
- 1:10:42Speaker 2: their Congressman Davidson.
- 1:10:44Speaker 13: Well, look, they are having a global impact, but they're
- 1:10:47Speaker 13: having a big impact on Iran too, So yes, if
- 1:10:49Speaker 13: you think about it, you know, look that's their lifeline too,
- 1:10:52Speaker 13: that's how they get that. They fund their whole economy
- 1:10:54Speaker 13: off of this, so you know they're getting nothing, and yeah,
- 1:10:57Speaker 13: they're causing pain and suffering for others, But who's suffering
- 1:11:01Speaker 13: the most is the average guy in Iran, you know,
- 1:11:03Speaker 13: because I'll tell you the leadership of the IRGC. If
- 1:11:06Speaker 13: there's an ounce of wealth in Iran, the ERGYC is
- 1:11:11Speaker 13: going to control it. And so you know, that's always
- 1:11:13Speaker 13: the hard thing of it about this economic war approach
- 1:11:18Speaker 13: is you know, the average guys, the people that you
- 1:11:20Speaker 13: want to be sympathetic to our position. You know, they're
- 1:11:24Speaker 13: the ones that suffer the most, and you know they
- 1:11:27Speaker 13: can they connect the dots and see, really it's the
- 1:11:30Speaker 13: stranglehold that the IRGC is having on their country. I
- 1:11:33Speaker 13: think a lot of them can, but unfortunately tens of
- 1:11:35Speaker 13: thousand of them have been killed by the energy see.
- 1:11:38Speaker 13: So yeah, look, I'm rooting for them. I want them
- 1:11:40Speaker 13: to have a better future and a better government. I
- 1:11:43Speaker 13: think the Trump administration Vice President Vance in particular, have
- 1:11:47Speaker 13: laid out a possible alternative future for them. But the ERGYC,
- 1:11:51Speaker 13: I think rightly sees that, well, that would be the
- 1:11:54Speaker 13: end of them, you know, and they care more about
- 1:11:57Speaker 13: power to the point where they would rule over the
- 1:12:00Speaker 13: ashes than have a better future for a RAN. And
- 1:12:03Speaker 13: in a lot of ways, their sort of radical Gidi
- 1:12:06Speaker 13: mindset is reinforced by a lot of the things going
- 1:12:09Speaker 13: on there. So look, I think there's a lot of
- 1:12:11Speaker 13: different approaches we could have done at this point. The
- 1:12:13Speaker 13: toothpaste out of the tube, and you got to make
- 1:12:15Speaker 13: the best of the situation. The blockade I think has
- 1:12:18Speaker 13: a chance to work. But you know that's not free
- 1:12:20Speaker 13: for us either. There there are real strains and consequences
- 1:12:23Speaker 13: for us to sustain this. The question is can we
- 1:12:25Speaker 13: sustain it? Can we stay the course and will produce
- 1:12:28Speaker 13: any effect? You know, the markets work on math, so
- 1:12:31Speaker 13: you can you can certainly see, well do they really
- 1:12:34Speaker 13: work on math? Because you see the true social posts
- 1:12:37Speaker 13: and the markets move up or the markets move down,
- 1:12:40Speaker 13: and you know, uh, you know, hopefully hopefully nobody's doing
- 1:12:44Speaker 13: anything untoward there. But but you know, the people are
- 1:12:48Speaker 13: right to be concerned to pay attention to that. You know,
- 1:12:50Speaker 13: that's that's a wrongful use of of position and information.
- 1:12:55Speaker 13: And you see a lot of front running of some
- 1:12:57Speaker 13: of the messaging. I think that's you know, a real concern.
- 1:13:01Speaker 13: The real question is our markets really rational or are
- 1:13:03Speaker 13: they really going to work off math? And I think
- 1:13:06Speaker 13: what you're seeing is they're saying, yeah, they're going to
- 1:13:08Speaker 13: be some critical shortages for a while, no question about it.
- 1:13:12Speaker 2: I like the veiled reference to the meme market we
- 1:13:15Speaker 2: have going on out there. There's no questions that's going
- 1:13:17Speaker 2: on to a certain degree. But what of the suffering
- 1:13:20Speaker 2: of the Iranian people? Now, I just I kind of
- 1:13:22Speaker 2: look to our southern neighbors, the Cubans, and they've been
- 1:13:24Speaker 2: living in a misery and suffering for a long long time.
- 1:13:27Speaker 2: And of course there's been no open revolt rebellion up
- 1:13:30Speaker 2: until most recently. But the Iranians have been suffering for
- 1:13:33Speaker 2: a long time. I think they're used to suffering. And
- 1:13:35Speaker 2: then they also all basically share one fundamentalist ideology. At
- 1:13:39Speaker 2: least they're all wedded to the religion, a belief in Islam,
- 1:13:43Speaker 2: whether or not the radicals or not, and that's a
- 1:13:45Speaker 2: real unifier religion is. And I know the IRGC doesn't
- 1:13:49Speaker 2: care about the suffering of its people, So I guess
- 1:13:52Speaker 2: the question becomes one of how long can they last
- 1:13:56Speaker 2: with the suffering? How long will the suffering have to
- 1:13:58Speaker 2: go on until something cracks there? And it seems to
- 1:14:01Speaker 2: me they can take a whole lot. And then there's
- 1:14:02Speaker 2: the other component. I got to raise this because it's
- 1:14:04Speaker 2: really I think it's a profound warning to us. We
- 1:14:08Speaker 2: had this Muhammed Residanakhti, guy Irani military fish, who were
- 1:14:13Speaker 2: talking about, you know, we can take a lot basically.
- 1:14:15Speaker 2: You know, we've seen how the American military is. It's
- 1:14:17Speaker 2: weaker than we had perceived. We've learned a lot from
- 1:14:19Speaker 2: this conflict. And here's the quote that bothered me. He said,
- 1:14:21Speaker 2: if there comes a day when Iran has no more
- 1:14:24Speaker 2: missiles left, that's when we will be even more dangerous
- 1:14:26Speaker 2: for America because America has thousands of economic interests throughout
- 1:14:30Speaker 2: the world, and all of them can easily be destroyed. Now,
- 1:14:34Speaker 2: of course, if you think about it, you can launch
- 1:14:36Speaker 2: a cyber attacks. We had water systems, like twelve of
- 1:14:39Speaker 2: them here in the United States, and the Iranians were
- 1:14:42Speaker 2: I believe to be behind the attacks on our water systems.
- 1:14:45Speaker 2: They don't have to send a drone into our territory
- 1:14:47Speaker 2: to do some serious damage to us. But then again,
- 1:14:50Speaker 2: you think about we do have literally thousands of interests
- 1:14:53Speaker 2: throughout the world, military bases, business interests, you know, terrorist cells,
- 1:14:58Speaker 2: that kind of thing, and then they take attribution for
- 1:15:00Speaker 2: it because well, the US bombed us again, So what
- 1:15:03Speaker 2: we're going to do is start blowing things up outside
- 1:15:05Speaker 2: the straight of horror. Moves, little tiny missiles, little tiny
- 1:15:08Speaker 2: drone boats, whatever happens to be. You don't need much
- 1:15:11Speaker 2: to do a whole lot of harm and create massive
- 1:15:13Speaker 2: psychological damage.
- 1:15:16Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:15:16Speaker 13: Look, I know there's a lot of fixation on Iran,
- 1:15:19Speaker 13: but to suffering. I'm worried about as the average American
- 1:15:21Speaker 13: when I'm out talking to my constituents, they're worried about
- 1:15:23Speaker 13: their affordability, and they're rooting for Iran to have better life,
- 1:15:27Speaker 13: but they want a better life for themselves. They definitely
- 1:15:30Speaker 13: want a better life for their kids. And you know,
- 1:15:32Speaker 13: some of these challenges, this is the challenge, you know,
- 1:15:35Speaker 13: that's how the Roman Empire died. It's expensive to sustain
- 1:15:37Speaker 13: an empire, and we don't have an empire. We have
- 1:15:40Speaker 13: a republic. We're behaving as if we've got this vast empire,
- 1:15:44Speaker 13: and in essence we do. But we can afford a republic,
- 1:15:50Speaker 13: that's what our constitution created. And we're bankrupting our country
- 1:15:54Speaker 13: with all these aimless missions too. I mean, if you
- 1:15:57Speaker 13: look at the mission, what exactly is it and has
- 1:16:00Speaker 13: it been accomplished? Usually you accomplished the mission once not
- 1:16:03Speaker 13: like three times a week, And so you really want
- 1:16:06Speaker 13: to say, look, if you're going to commit to a conflict,
- 1:16:09Speaker 13: then define the mission and commit to it. That's what
- 1:16:11Speaker 13: the that's why Congress is supposed to vote for it,
- 1:16:14Speaker 13: and you get the entire country behind. I will say,
- 1:16:17Speaker 13: in general, you're more likely to win any conflict if
- 1:16:20Speaker 13: you multiply your allies rather than multiply your enemies. That
- 1:16:23Speaker 13: isn't going great either. So yeah, I think we should
- 1:16:26Speaker 13: just focus on America first, get our own house in order.
- 1:16:30Speaker 13: And for the Democrats to say, oh, Trump did this, no,
- 1:16:33Speaker 13: I mean they're the ones that shot the economy with
- 1:16:36Speaker 13: Joe Biden's quote Inflation Reduction Act. It was the Inflation
- 1:16:40Speaker 13: Expansion Act. They're pouring cash onto already stressed because of COVID,
- 1:16:45Speaker 13: but they threw fuel on a bonfire and we're dealing
- 1:16:48Speaker 13: with the consequences. I mean, you talk about the huge
- 1:16:51Speaker 13: spike in prices that happened during COVID. Now people are saying, well,
- 1:16:55Speaker 13: the prices are still high.
- 1:16:57Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:16:57Speaker 13: Inflation's measuring the rate of growth. It is stabling and plateauing.
- 1:17:01Speaker 13: The question is are we going to get wages growth
- 1:17:04Speaker 13: to go up? And this is the thing. If you
- 1:17:06Speaker 13: want wage growth, well, you don't import the world. You
- 1:17:09Speaker 13: don't bring you know, ten or twenty million people into
- 1:17:11Speaker 13: the country. You don't have this massive H one D
- 1:17:13Speaker 13: visa program. You don't flood the market with fraud fraudulent
- 1:17:19Speaker 13: cash which causes inflation. You're all this stuff is juicing
- 1:17:23Speaker 13: inflation and holding down wages. So this is the you know,
- 1:17:26Speaker 13: make America a great again. Position in America first is
- 1:17:29Speaker 13: you know, keep the border secure, hold this down, get
- 1:17:32Speaker 13: the illegal labor out, and the average working guys going
- 1:17:36Speaker 13: to see their paycheck go up. And that in essence
- 1:17:39Speaker 13: happened with the Working Families Tax Cuts Act. I mean
- 1:17:42Speaker 13: people are going to get a big tax increase and
- 1:17:44Speaker 13: they got tax decreases. So you know, this is a
- 1:17:47Speaker 13: this is a win for affordability. But we're not getting
- 1:17:50Speaker 13: the message out because we're focused on the empire instead
- 1:17:52Speaker 13: of the republic.
- 1:17:53Speaker 2: Good point. And the other component is and it's a
- 1:17:56Speaker 2: more difficult message to explain to voters if voters are
- 1:17:58Speaker 2: really really wigged out in about inflation and yeah, the
- 1:18:01Speaker 2: prices aren't are probably never going to go back down
- 1:18:04Speaker 2: to pre COVID levels. Why because of the aforementioned printing
- 1:18:07Speaker 2: press reality, the afford, the Inflation Reduction Act, the PPP
- 1:18:11Speaker 2: loans everything. They just through six or seven or however
- 1:18:15Speaker 2: many trillion dollars in the economy. The buying power of
- 1:18:18Speaker 2: the American dollar is one third less than it was
- 1:18:20Speaker 2: in twenty nineteen. There's your problem right there. The dollar
- 1:18:24Speaker 2: just isn't going to buy as much as it used
- 1:18:26Speaker 2: to thanks to the printing press. Welcome to the Democrats
- 1:18:28Speaker 2: and even Republicans, right, I mean, this is a shit.
- 1:18:31Speaker 13: I mean, look, we didn't get thirty nine almost thirty
- 1:18:34Speaker 13: nine point seven almost forty trillion in debt because one
- 1:18:36Speaker 13: party is bad on spending. I mean, unfortunately, you know,
- 1:18:40Speaker 13: Republicans only know a campaign on a smaller, more accountable government.
- 1:18:44Speaker 13: If we believed in it, while we have House, Senate
- 1:18:47Speaker 13: and White House, we would be getting a smaller, more
- 1:18:50Speaker 13: accountable government. I think a lot of us are very
- 1:18:52Speaker 13: frustrated by that we don't have a majority within the
- 1:18:54Speaker 13: Republican Party on this. Reality is it only takes a
- 1:18:57Speaker 13: handful of crossover and kind of deal with Democrats no
- 1:19:00Speaker 13: matter how crazy they get. You know, there's always seems
- 1:19:03Speaker 13: to be some Republican that's anxious to trot out and
- 1:19:06Speaker 13: talk about how bipartisan they are, and you're like, is
- 1:19:09Speaker 13: stop cutting these bad deals please? So that's kind of
- 1:19:13Speaker 13: the hold the line. Let's just go straight like we
- 1:19:15Speaker 13: said we would do, instead of pretending we're in a
- 1:19:18Speaker 13: Nascar race and we can only turn left. That's the
- 1:19:21Speaker 13: way our politics has been. You get in there and
- 1:19:23Speaker 13: you're like, I want to go straight, and you're like, no, no,
- 1:19:25Speaker 13: the track's rigged. You get to turn left. And that's
- 1:19:28Speaker 13: the way our political system has been. The Senate keeps
- 1:19:30Speaker 13: failing us, and part of the way it's rigged as
- 1:19:32Speaker 13: a sixty vote rule in the Senate, and they act like, oh,
- 1:19:35Speaker 13: well that's the only way to do anything in the Senate. Well,
- 1:19:37Speaker 13: you could hold the floor and win the debate, as
- 1:19:40Speaker 13: Mike Least been jumping up and down for a year
- 1:19:43Speaker 13: and a half now trying to get them to do
- 1:19:45Speaker 13: to save America and election integrity. They could do that
- 1:19:48Speaker 13: on all kinds of things if they really believed in it.
- 1:19:50Speaker 2: No question about a pousible. Bring Congress with Warren Davidson
- 1:19:52Speaker 2: back after the brief words including word for cover sinci
- 1:19:55Speaker 2: into my medicare folks out there, I guess the deadline
- 1:19:58Speaker 2: is the December seven. Don't auto renew John Rowlman the
- 1:20:02Speaker 2: team at cover Sincy, and this is a free service
- 1:20:04Speaker 2: for you, my friends. They will take a look at
- 1:20:07Speaker 2: your Medicare situation and if you need to have a change,
- 1:20:09Speaker 2: and there may very well be a need. They don't
- 1:20:11Speaker 2: even know what's going to be what the situation is,
- 1:20:14Speaker 2: I think, until the fifteenth of October. So schedule an
- 1:20:17Speaker 2: appointment now to meet with John Roulman and one or
- 1:20:19Speaker 2: one of the team, most likely one of the teams
- 1:20:22Speaker 2: from October fifteenth forward, so they have all the information
- 1:20:25Speaker 2: and they can steer you in the right direction. Auto
- 1:20:27Speaker 2: renewal can be a very bad thing, so don't just
- 1:20:30Speaker 2: keep status quo. Make sure you pay attention, know what
- 1:20:33Speaker 2: you're doing, and make the right choices. And John Roulman
- 1:20:35Speaker 2: and the team will help you do just that again
- 1:20:37Speaker 2: at no cost to you. Schedule the appointment by filling
- 1:20:40Speaker 2: the form out online at coversincy dot com or call
- 1:20:44Speaker 2: five to one three eight hundred. Call that's five one
- 1:20:47Speaker 2: three eight hundred two two five five. Oh look, just
- 1:20:59Speaker 2: tracker walked out of the bill. You went to rescue
- 1:21:03Speaker 2: the cell phone? Anyway, Congressman Davidson, since you haven't hung up,
- 1:21:06Speaker 2: and I'm going to keep you on the phone here
- 1:21:07Speaker 2: because Joe had to go pick Speaking of phones, he
- 1:21:09Speaker 2: lost his cell phone and the buddy of his went
- 1:21:11Speaker 2: and picked it up and is bringing it to him.
- 1:21:12Speaker 2: That's why he walked out of the room. We talked
- 1:21:14Speaker 2: about the Senate there, Congressman Davidson, the senators who wouldn't
- 1:21:19Speaker 2: vote to stay in Reesa, the Senators who don't want
- 1:21:22Speaker 2: to vote for the Save Act. Do you have any
- 1:21:23Speaker 2: clear indication as to why that is the case, sir,
- 1:21:26Speaker 2: because I'm baffled by that. You know, the polling, you
- 1:21:29Speaker 2: know this is a bipartisan issue that people want, just
- 1:21:32Speaker 2: proof that you're an American citizen to vote in federal elections.
- 1:21:35Speaker 2: How come they won't do it?
- 1:21:37Speaker 13: Well, look, put us to Senator John Houstead, you know
- 1:21:40Speaker 13: who's on the ballot and hopefully can prevail and make
- 1:21:42Speaker 13: sure Shared Brown doesn't return to the Senate. You know
- 1:21:45Speaker 13: that's one of the most urgent races in the country.
- 1:21:48Speaker 13: But you know, Senator Housted got to vote just on
- 1:21:50Speaker 13: plane voter ID. Oh, the Save Act does this?
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: So does that?
- 1:21:54Speaker 13: There's a lot of misinformation out there on purpose. He said, no, no,
- 1:21:57Speaker 13: this is just vote I d S singing we already
- 1:21:59Speaker 13: have in Ohio. Works fine, and it works in all
- 1:22:03Speaker 13: but like thirteen or fourteen states. You know, you got
- 1:22:05Speaker 13: to have vote ID. If you can't tell me who voted,
- 1:22:07Speaker 13: how can you tell me you had an honest election.
- 1:22:10Speaker 13: So this is really basic. It's eighty plus ninety plus
- 1:22:13Speaker 13: percent approval and it was fifty two forty seven. I mean,
- 1:22:17Speaker 13: Senator McConnell's the only guy that didn't vote. He's recovering,
- 1:22:21Speaker 13: you know, from whatever ails him right now. But he,
- 1:22:24Speaker 13: you know, everyone else's party line vote. Why would Democrats
- 1:22:28Speaker 13: do that? Well, the Democrats in so many other states
- 1:22:32Speaker 13: they show ID and it works, and it's all because
- 1:22:35Speaker 13: they want to keep the system rigged the way it's rigged.
- 1:22:38Speaker 13: You know, if you look at, you know, some of
- 1:22:41Speaker 13: these outcomes of it. You get election results days and
- 1:22:45Speaker 13: weeks after the election, and somehow magically the right Democrat
- 1:22:50Speaker 13: candidate seems to always find like, you know, one hundred
- 1:22:53Speaker 13: more votes or something just enough to get across the
- 1:22:55Speaker 13: finish line. We suspect there are a lot of things
- 1:22:58Speaker 13: that are rigged, but the most basic thing is, you know,
- 1:23:01Speaker 13: are you who you say you are? You're coming here
- 1:23:03Speaker 13: saying I would like a ballot please, and well, my
- 1:23:05Speaker 13: name's Warren Davidson. Okay, even though everyone there knows who
- 1:23:09Speaker 13: I am, I hand my ID card to the polling
- 1:23:13Speaker 13: place and they match it and they go, oh, yeah,
- 1:23:15Speaker 13: you are Warren Davidson and you vote. This isn't a
- 1:23:19Speaker 13: hard thing to do. And johnathy Staid did a great
- 1:23:22Speaker 13: job getting a vote on that same America is a
- 1:23:24Speaker 13: little more complicated than that because on the back end
- 1:23:27Speaker 13: they check the voter rolls to say are you citizens?
- 1:23:29Speaker 13: And you found in mobile states recently New Jersey, thousands
- 1:23:34Speaker 13: of people who go to motor Voter, they go to
- 1:23:36Speaker 13: the DMV and they say, hey, would you like to
- 1:23:39Speaker 13: register to vote? And they just say yes or the
- 1:23:41Speaker 13: default is you get registered. Well, maybe maybe non citizens
- 1:23:45Speaker 13: did that accidentally. Maybe some of them did it on purpose.
- 1:23:48Speaker 13: Some of them may vote. But that's one of the
- 1:23:50Speaker 13: big problems with our election integrity. And it's a common
- 1:23:54Speaker 13: sense fixed. I think we've got the votes that Republicans
- 1:23:57Speaker 13: would just hold the floor. They don't seem committed enough
- 1:23:59Speaker 13: to it to go fight and hold the floor though,
- 1:24:02Speaker 13: And I don't know how they wouldn't win the debate.
- 1:24:04Speaker 13: I mean, if they were if the only thing we
- 1:24:05Speaker 13: were talking about is the Save America Act over the summer,
- 1:24:08Speaker 13: or if they stayed through August and did this instead
- 1:24:10Speaker 13: of taking Yeah, they do need to go to their
- 1:24:12Speaker 13: states and talk to people. I mean, Johnnystaid definitely needs
- 1:24:15Speaker 13: to be around the state of Ohio. But I think
- 1:24:17Speaker 13: one of the things he's going to hear what he's
- 1:24:19Speaker 13: out and about is past the Save America Act. And
- 1:24:23Speaker 13: what better way to show that he's got the message
- 1:24:26Speaker 13: than holding the floor in the Senate talking about Save
- 1:24:28Speaker 13: America and affordability.
- 1:24:31Speaker 2: Oh yeah, And I just I struggle with that it
- 1:24:33Speaker 2: is not more of a winning reality. Maybe it will
- 1:24:35Speaker 2: be as we move forward to November, because you know
- 1:24:38Speaker 2: the cost of the Democratic Socials of America policies. I
- 1:24:41Speaker 2: saw the Cato incident, and I talked about this earlier
- 1:24:44Speaker 2: Cato crunch the numbers and if you give them everything
- 1:24:45Speaker 2: they want, it's going to be seventy one to two
- 1:24:47Speaker 2: hundred and twelve trillion dollars over ten years if they
- 1:24:50Speaker 2: get what they want, and they of of course pointed
- 1:24:52Speaker 2: out if you take up and hoover up literally every
- 1:24:55Speaker 2: single dollar of all the millionaires and billionaires and all
- 1:24:58Speaker 2: the corporations one hundred percent taxation, it still will not
- 1:25:01Speaker 2: cover but a fraction of the total cost of the
- 1:25:04Speaker 2: Democratic Socials of America policy. So you know, that's something
- 1:25:07Speaker 2: the Republicans take in advance of the argument in November.
- 1:25:09Speaker 2: But this is another one. Is it not if the
- 1:25:11Speaker 2: propolling numbers seem to be even remotely close, this Save
- 1:25:15Speaker 2: America Act a photo ID requirement is a winning argument
- 1:25:19Speaker 2: against November that Democrats in November. Isn't that maybe even
- 1:25:23Speaker 2: arguably a good thing going into November that it hasn't
- 1:25:25Speaker 2: been passed.
- 1:25:27Speaker 13: Well, look, I mean it's common sense versus crazy use
- 1:25:30Speaker 13: hit on issue after issue, and you know, thanks to
- 1:25:33Speaker 13: some of these crazy folks crossing all the way into communism,
- 1:25:37Speaker 13: you're seeing common sense versus communism in some states. A
- 1:25:40Speaker 13: narrow miss in Wisconsin, I mean they were about to
- 1:25:43Speaker 13: select the lady that literally wanted to cancel Thanksgiving. I
- 1:25:46Speaker 13: mean that's one of the most you know, Denign, we
- 1:25:49Speaker 13: love America, we're thankful for the blessings we have, holidays
- 1:25:53Speaker 13: we've got, and they held off a really radical lady
- 1:25:57Speaker 13: from winning the Democrat primary there, which masks how radical
- 1:26:00Speaker 13: the guy that won is. But you know they've they've
- 1:26:03Speaker 13: definitely shifted the Overton window on this when you look
- 1:26:06Speaker 13: at it though on a on affordability here. I mean
- 1:26:11Speaker 13: these kinds of things, you know, when you look at
- 1:26:14Speaker 13: the spending that's going on. You talked about the Democrat
- 1:26:17Speaker 13: wish list costing, you know, seventy plus trillion. Well, that's
- 1:26:21Speaker 13: a simple mass seven trillion a year, seventy trillion over
- 1:26:24Speaker 13: ten years.
- 1:26:25Speaker 2: That's the low end.
- 1:26:26Speaker 13: Yeah, that's that's double. That's double what we spend now
- 1:26:29Speaker 13: at the federal level. We don't have a balanced budget now.
- 1:26:32Speaker 13: So as you know, like if we went back to
- 1:26:34Speaker 13: the system of taxation that we had before, like the
- 1:26:37Speaker 13: state's got to make up the difference to run the
- 1:26:39Speaker 13: government and we balance the budget. And you just sent
- 1:26:41Speaker 13: a bill to the states. If Ohio wanted to sustain
- 1:26:44Speaker 13: everything that we get in federal grants and programs and
- 1:26:47Speaker 13: all the spending we get from like Medicaid matching dollars
- 1:26:49Speaker 13: and everything, we would have to double our state taxes.
- 1:26:54Speaker 13: So you think about every tax that you pay that
- 1:26:56Speaker 13: goes into the Columbus budget, it would be double, and
- 1:27:00Speaker 13: that would get us to a balance budget. That's how
- 1:27:02Speaker 13: bad the current hole is. And you know, when you're
- 1:27:05Speaker 13: in a hole, the best thing you do is stop digging.
- 1:27:07Speaker 13: But we keep digging faster. I mean, you're looking at
- 1:27:10Speaker 13: the rate of you know, the deficit, the debt, the
- 1:27:15Speaker 13: interest on the debt, and you know they're rooting for
- 1:27:17Speaker 13: interest rates to go lower.
- 1:27:19Speaker 6: I hope so too.
- 1:27:20Speaker 13: But the market's pricing.
- 1:27:21Speaker 4: Them higher, right And the only.
- 1:27:23Speaker 13: Reason they would go lower is you've got a central
- 1:27:24Speaker 13: planner at the Federal Reserve that tries to override the
- 1:27:28Speaker 13: mask geeks that go out there and say, you know,
- 1:27:31Speaker 13: the default risk is higher, inflation's higher. Those are the
- 1:27:34Speaker 13: basic components of an interest rate, time value of money
- 1:27:37Speaker 13: and default risk. They're both higher. Why wouldn't rates be
- 1:27:41Speaker 13: going higher? When you look in the bond market and
- 1:27:43Speaker 13: the mortgage market, rates are going higher. So I don't
- 1:27:46Speaker 13: see how they're going to pull off saying oh, we're
- 1:27:48Speaker 13: going to force rates to go lower and not have
- 1:27:51Speaker 13: open rebellion in the market.
- 1:27:53Speaker 2: Congress from Warren Davidson, cold water dose reality. Appreciate it,
- 1:27:57Speaker 2: and I hope you have a fantastic week. Look forward
- 1:27:59Speaker 2: to talking with again next week. Sir, and I appreciate
- 1:28:01Speaker 2: your willingness to discuss these important issues with my listeners
- 1:28:03Speaker 2: in me, sir.
- 1:28:05Speaker 13: Always an honor geh bless you and all your listeners.
- 1:28:07Speaker 2: Right back at you, my friends, seven twenty six, right now,
- 1:28:09Speaker 2: if you have Kercity Talks station, Oh, Joe Jacker is
- 1:28:11Speaker 2: in the building, and Susanne Low's camp's waiting for your
- 1:28:13Speaker 2: phone call. And if kung phone call you're going to
- 1:28:15Speaker 2: want to make if you want the best person to
- 1:28:16Speaker 2: deal with in terms of Marine still thinks Donald Trump's
- 1:28:19Speaker 2: going to delay the election. I call that political suicide.
- 1:28:21Speaker 2: Talked about that the other day with Judge Ennena Politano.
- 1:28:24Speaker 2: National emergency apparently it's the predicate, but we don't have one.
- 1:28:27Speaker 2: Her suggestion is maybe the problems with voting are a
- 1:28:31Speaker 2: national emergency. Don't think so. Personally, Paulatanas said, the case
- 1:28:38Speaker 2: law upon which Wayne Allen Ruth suggested he could declare
- 1:28:41Speaker 2: national emergency does not apply. So I said keep the
- 1:28:44Speaker 2: popcorn out, and she said, I'm going to need lots
- 1:28:46Speaker 2: of it. We'll find out together. But if he does,
- 1:28:51Speaker 2: which I think it's unlikely because so hopefully someone's standing
- 1:28:53Speaker 2: over his shoulder whispering in his ear. Don't do it,
- 1:28:55Speaker 2: because it'd be political suicide. You know, Democrats screaming about democracy,
- 1:28:59Speaker 2: this democracy, that they represent the biggest threat to democracy.
- 1:29:02Speaker 2: But they love convincing people that Donald Trump somehow represents
- 1:29:04Speaker 2: a threat to democracy. A lot of people believe that nonsense.
- 1:29:09Speaker 2: What would be arguably, SoundBite wise anyway, a bigger threat
- 1:29:13Speaker 2: to democracy than someone holds up the election. Don't you
- 1:29:17Speaker 2: see the political reality of what that would mean. We've
- 1:29:22Speaker 2: got we're pushing them over against the ropes currently right
- 1:29:24Speaker 2: now with this embrace of socialism, the price tag that
- 1:29:26Speaker 2: goes along with it in the backcrap insanity of the
- 1:29:29Speaker 2: reality that would unfold in the face of let's say,
- 1:29:31Speaker 2: for example, just one of their policies getting rid of
- 1:29:34Speaker 2: the police department and the prison system. They're effectively running
- 1:29:37Speaker 2: on that. Although Woke one they say is over. They're
- 1:29:40Speaker 2: weed to those principles. That's the kind of arguments we've
- 1:29:47Speaker 2: got going in and you know, nobody believes a word
- 1:29:50Speaker 2: of it when they say, oh, I'm not there, I'm
- 1:29:51Speaker 2: not nouting. That was woke one. It was the spur
- 1:29:53Speaker 2: of the moment. Yeah, like a couple of years ago,
- 1:29:56Speaker 2: right seven thirty five fifty five KRC station. You can
- 1:30:00Speaker 2: call though five one three, seven nine fifty five hundred
- 1:30:03Speaker 2: eight hundred eighty two to three talk and you can
- 1:30:05Speaker 2: get in touch with Shaffacs Credit Union. Because you want
- 1:30:07Speaker 2: to start a holiday club account. Why well, to make
- 1:30:10Speaker 2: the holidays less dreadful and as stressful and staying out
- 1:30:12Speaker 2: of debt. To do that by saving a little teeny
- 1:30:14Speaker 2: bit all year long, you'll have more money ready when
- 1:30:17Speaker 2: the season arrives, so automatic deposits can be set up.
- 1:30:19Speaker 2: You can earn dividends on your savings. That's the point
- 1:30:23Speaker 2: of the savings account. So build up more and stock
- 1:30:26Speaker 2: it away and then you're ready to hit the ground
- 1:30:28Speaker 2: running when holiday shopping time comes. So don't wait until
- 1:30:30Speaker 2: Deceummer to start saving. You can do it today. Share
- 1:30:32Speaker 2: facts dot org is the website. Once you're there, just
- 1:30:35Speaker 2: search savings option or simply stop by you near at
- 1:30:38Speaker 2: share Facts Credit Union. It's a better way to bank
- 1:30:41Speaker 2: SHAREFFACS Credit Union where smarter savings makes the holidays brighter.
- 1:30:45Speaker 5: Fifty five KRC payrolls.
- 1:30:48Speaker 2: So saying one thing out loud and then looking at
- 1:30:51Speaker 2: the reality is documented by satellite data, completely different reality.
- 1:30:55Speaker 2: So that's a bad thing, right. Well, First, don't gaslight voter,
- 1:31:01Speaker 2: says Roe, the president claimed in Las Vegas that he
- 1:31:03Speaker 2: produced in this is another illustration of it. Quote the
- 1:31:06Speaker 2: greatest economy we've ever had so far, with the cost
- 1:31:08Speaker 2: of rent, groceries and other staples coming down very FAST's
- 1:31:12Speaker 2: Rowe points out how many swing voters believe that claims
- 1:31:14Speaker 2: that collide with America's day to day experience got mister
- 1:31:17Speaker 2: Biden into trouble and now mister Trump too. So don't
- 1:31:22Speaker 2: just don't make broadbreast statements that are easily discounted because
- 1:31:25Speaker 2: you just got back from the grocery store. And yet
- 1:31:27Speaker 2: it's not Donald Trump that we necessarily that ran the
- 1:31:31Speaker 2: printing press. Both sides of the equation are responsible for that,
- 1:31:34Speaker 2: going back to Congress from Warren Davidson's observations. But you've
- 1:31:38Speaker 2: got to really make the point on the inflation being
- 1:31:40Speaker 2: the product of the printing press more so than any
- 1:31:42Speaker 2: policy point. Second, he says, screaming communists won't want additional votes. Instead,
- 1:31:47Speaker 2: use a Democrat candidate's own words and policies. Remember the
- 1:31:51Speaker 2: Trump twenty twenty four They them add featuring footage of
- 1:31:54Speaker 2: Kamala Harris and dornsing transgender surgery for convicts, make Democrat
- 1:31:59Speaker 2: candidates anything they say that's extreme, And going back to
- 1:32:03Speaker 2: the Cato Institute's number crunching, put together the dsay's platform
- 1:32:07Speaker 2: would cost you and I between seventy one and two
- 1:32:10Speaker 2: hundred and twelve trillion dollars. There aren't enough tax thie
- 1:32:14Speaker 2: dollars out there to cover it. Third, don't let democrats
- 1:32:17Speaker 2: get away with disavowing past outrageous positions. Oh that was wow.
- 1:32:21Speaker 2: One point out how convenient their changes are. Ask when
- 1:32:26Speaker 2: and why they changed their minds, raised doubts, suggesting that
- 1:32:30Speaker 2: they're untrustworthy and nothing keeps them from reverting to those
- 1:32:33Speaker 2: extreme views. Right, they were crazy and extreme, but widely
- 1:32:38Speaker 2: embraced during COVID nineteen. Alexander Casio Kortez one of them.
- 1:32:42Speaker 2: They got her on film, deef get rid of the
- 1:32:45Speaker 2: police department. Now it's no, no, no, no, that was
- 1:32:48Speaker 2: just in the spur, that was walk one. We don't
- 1:32:50Speaker 2: buy into that anymore. Right, and then five minutes after
- 1:32:53Speaker 2: they get elected, they'll go back to those prior policies.
- 1:32:55Speaker 2: You know, damn well that's the case. Fourth, don't let
- 1:32:58Speaker 2: democrats escape from dangerous associations. Ah, Hassan Piker, someone like
- 1:33:03Speaker 2: him campaigns form or another Democrat in the state ticket.
- 1:33:06Speaker 2: Make every Democrat defend every terrible comment like mister Piker's
- 1:33:10Speaker 2: made and ask him why they would ever associate with
- 1:33:12Speaker 2: someone like that. Yeah, El Sied was asked and he
- 1:33:17Speaker 2: didn't disavow what Hassan Piker had said. I think that's
- 1:33:20Speaker 2: bad for his campaign. Maybe he won't be senator. Fifth Republicans,
- 1:33:27Speaker 2: especially those running against candidates endorsed by the Democratic Socialist
- 1:33:30Speaker 2: of America or opponents who share their state ticket with
- 1:33:32Speaker 2: DSA back Democrats, must explain why the dssa's agendas won't
- 1:33:37Speaker 2: work and will hurt voters. The DSA doesn't want Americans
- 1:33:41Speaker 2: to have a landlord or mortgage. That logically means the
- 1:33:44Speaker 2: government would a signed you how it and you couldn't
- 1:33:46Speaker 2: accumulate wealth by buying a home and letting it grow
- 1:33:49Speaker 2: in value. That's one of the realities of communism and socialism.
- 1:33:51Speaker 2: Just look at what mom Dami says about that and
- 1:33:53Speaker 2: what he's actually doing. There's a guy who's actually trying
- 1:33:56Speaker 2: to implement the policies and take over ownership of property.
- 1:34:02Speaker 2: Six forced normal Democrats to disavowed d Essay policies. Yes,
- 1:34:06Speaker 2: it gives them, some Democrats an opportunity to say they
- 1:34:08Speaker 2: won't abolish ice, defund the police, are close prisons, but
- 1:34:10Speaker 2: that could discourage some of their left wing supporters from
- 1:34:13Speaker 2: turning out. Uh huh, that knives out comment from Pipe.
- 1:34:18Speaker 1: And iHeartRadio station guaranteed human.
- 1:34:22Speaker 2: And he's making threats and suggesting, I think vaidly so
- 1:34:26Speaker 2: that his DSA folks might not turn out for the
- 1:34:29Speaker 2: one who won the popular vote in the primary. And
- 1:34:32Speaker 2: then finally, Rose says Republicans can't simply run on having
- 1:34:35Speaker 2: done a good job last year. They have to show
- 1:34:37Speaker 2: concrete plans make things better next year. So there was
- 1:34:40Speaker 2: practically none of that in the president's hour long Las
- 1:34:43Speaker 2: Vegas speech. Near its end, he did spend thirty nine
- 1:34:45Speaker 2: seconds on a new healthcare plan and one minute on
- 1:34:48Speaker 2: the Save Act. Not enough. GOP candidates had better offer
- 1:34:52Speaker 2: more fresh ideas and spend plenty of time on them.
- 1:34:55Speaker 2: I don't find any fault with his suggestions. We'll see
- 1:34:58Speaker 2: what happens from between them, and of course November and
- 1:35:01Speaker 2: the election seven forty six right now fifty five K
- 1:35:03Speaker 2: see the talk station seven fifty one here fifty five
- 1:35:08Speaker 2: car see talk station can't wait till late thirty with
- 1:35:11Speaker 2: iHeart media aviation expert Jay Ratliffe. Good morning, Jay, and
- 1:35:17Speaker 2: let us see here. This was absolutely heartbreaking, a little
- 1:35:20Speaker 2: illustration of something Republicans can run on, a idea of
- 1:35:22Speaker 2: free choice in education. Yeah, more choice, the better. You
- 1:35:25Speaker 2: can choose a school where your child will actually learn something.
- 1:35:28Speaker 2: And you know, I cannot understate the importance of reading
- 1:35:30Speaker 2: to your children at really young ages. You know, I
- 1:35:33Speaker 2: both of our kids were great readers before they started school.
- 1:35:39Speaker 2: Why because we sat down and read to them all
- 1:35:40Speaker 2: the time. I mean, it's not difficult, and you get
- 1:35:43Speaker 2: to spend time with your kids and the kids love it,
- 1:35:45Speaker 2: and so it's bonding time. So read to your children
- 1:35:47Speaker 2: and don't worry about the problems that Darius Williams is facing.
- 1:35:49Speaker 2: He posted a video on Instagram. He's a teacher for
- 1:35:52Speaker 2: Houston Independent School Districts Wheatley High School, and he was
- 1:35:57Speaker 2: actually in tears on his video. And I don't know
- 1:35:59Speaker 2: if it was performance theater or not, but his message
- 1:36:01Speaker 2: and the statistics behind it are well heartbreaking, should be alarming.
- 1:36:08Speaker 2: So I just finished three hour a three hour class.
- 1:36:11Speaker 2: I literally broke down in the middle of class. A
- 1:36:18Speaker 2: new education system career and technical education staffer, that's what
- 1:36:21Speaker 2: he has described as William said he gave his class
- 1:36:24Speaker 2: full of seniors two paragraphs to read, then asked them
- 1:36:30Speaker 2: to complete another sentence he had practically filled out for them,
- 1:36:36Speaker 2: but his heart was broken when they could not finish
- 1:36:38Speaker 2: the task. He said, I basically completed the sentence for them.
- 1:36:41Speaker 2: These are seventeen and eighteen year old kids, and they
- 1:36:43Speaker 2: couldn't fill in four words, and he repeated that four words.
- 1:36:49Speaker 2: I gave them the scenario we annotated together. I gave
- 1:36:52Speaker 2: them the answers before we even had the problem, and
- 1:36:54Speaker 2: they couldn't do it.
- 1:36:57Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 1:36:57Speaker 2: I simply don't know where the problem is this. This
- 1:37:00Speaker 2: is only day two and I have seniors who simply
- 1:37:02Speaker 2: cannot read and seniors who cannot write. Repeating again, they
- 1:37:07Speaker 2: cannot write. He did say. They can talk reason and
- 1:37:10Speaker 2: defend the reasoning, but can't apply those skills and written texts.
- 1:37:13Speaker 2: Then he laments he is a black man. Our young
- 1:37:16Speaker 2: black men are young brown men, our young black girls
- 1:37:19Speaker 2: and our young brown girls. And that's when he started crying.
- 1:37:23Speaker 2: Of course, this is Internet. So he got some backlash
- 1:37:27Speaker 2: and they questioned his qualifications, et cetera. Yeah, check the
- 1:37:29Speaker 2: qualifications on your college professors. To Harvard anyway, he's described
- 1:37:35Speaker 2: as a teacher and part time cooking influencers, so he
- 1:37:37Speaker 2: does have a media presence. But he did pull out
- 1:37:39Speaker 2: all of his degrees, his bachelor's degrees from his college,
- 1:37:43Speaker 2: the fact that he has enrolled in a master's program
- 1:37:45Speaker 2: with the American College of Education, a bunch of certificates
- 1:37:48Speaker 2: that he showed everybody in the world. He goes, I
- 1:37:50Speaker 2: got all my certifications lined up, so you haters out there,
- 1:37:53Speaker 2: I am qualified to teach children, he said. For those
- 1:37:56Speaker 2: of you who may have had an issue or problem
- 1:37:59Speaker 2: with me teaching young at the well to take charge
- 1:38:00Speaker 2: of it. You do it. You get certified, walk into
- 1:38:04Speaker 2: these high schools, you get a classroom, you stand in
- 1:38:06Speaker 2: front of twenty two kids each period, and let me
- 1:38:08Speaker 2: see how well you do it. So, moving away from
- 1:38:10Speaker 2: mister Williams and his personal conclusions which people are finding
- 1:38:13Speaker 2: fault with, I have in one classroom. That's just him wrong.
- 1:38:19Speaker 2: His video came a little after a study was released
- 1:38:23Speaker 2: out majority of regarding New York City students this is
- 1:38:28Speaker 2: scary between third and fifth grades. A study looking at
- 1:38:33Speaker 2: their English Language Arts tests and the proficiency revealed by that.
- 1:38:39Speaker 2: Preliminary results released this week by the state's Education department
- 1:38:43Speaker 2: found fifty seven percent of third graders, fifty two percent
- 1:38:50Speaker 2: of fourth graders, and fifty seven percent of fifth graders
- 1:38:53Speaker 2: all got failing marks on their tests. In the twenty
- 1:38:57Speaker 2: twenty five twenty six academic calendar. Only forty eight percent
- 1:39:02Speaker 2: of the students in the testing grades four through eight
- 1:39:04Speaker 2: rated proficient, and that is a five percent plunge from
- 1:39:09Speaker 2: the prior year. So I think he has well a
- 1:39:13Speaker 2: justification in breaking down in tears. And you think of
- 1:39:19Speaker 2: those third through fifth grades. Each year, each one of
- 1:39:21Speaker 2: those children was moved on to the next year level class.
- 1:39:27Speaker 2: Who did that? Who allowed that to happen? I think
- 1:39:32Speaker 2: it's teachers. How do you advance a cot child and
- 1:39:36Speaker 2: give them a passing grade and send them onto an
- 1:39:39Speaker 2: environment with more difficult learning material, all of which is
- 1:39:41Speaker 2: predicated on being able to read? How do you do that? Well?
- 1:39:46Speaker 2: You end up putting them in senior seniors in high
- 1:39:48Speaker 2: schools in front of Darius Williams, and well, you can
- 1:39:52Speaker 2: see how well it's all worked out seven fifty six
- 1:39:54Speaker 2: Right now fifty goot Kcity toxication. Plenty of time to
- 1:39:56Speaker 2: talk between now and iHeart Media Aviation expert Jay Rattlet thirty.

- 1:40:38Speaker 2: on at and chief phones. You know, one of the
- 1:40:40Speaker 2: other issues that hasn't come up a whole lot lately,
- 1:40:42Speaker 2: and I think the whole idea of you know, global warming,
- 1:40:45Speaker 2: climate change, green New Deal and all that is falling apart.
- 1:40:49Speaker 2: All the data is coming out suggesting that, okay, we
- 1:40:52Speaker 2: were wrong, that un climate thing that the courts were
- 1:40:56Speaker 2: relying on. That's the plug's been pulled on that. No,
- 1:40:59Speaker 2: the outrageous out Landis predictions were not going to come true.
- 1:41:02Speaker 2: The data modeling was incorrect. And yet science we were
- 1:41:05Speaker 2: told rely on science, right anyone, anyone's skeptical now of
- 1:41:11Speaker 2: government scientists that come out and declare the absolute truth
- 1:41:13Speaker 2: on matters scientific, especially when all these things are built
- 1:41:18Speaker 2: on data modeling. You know who built the data modeling.
- 1:41:20Speaker 2: There's a whole concept of garbage in garbage out. Let's think,
- 1:41:23Speaker 2: if you want to create a brand new economy built
- 1:41:25Speaker 2: on a lie, what do you do? You fake data,
- 1:41:27Speaker 2: You fudge it, You extrapolate information and create projections that
- 1:41:33Speaker 2: serve your own interests, and then you go out into
- 1:41:35Speaker 2: the world and you tell everybody it's true. And of course,
- 1:41:38Speaker 2: in lockstep unity, the world leaders who want to control
- 1:41:41Speaker 2: all elements of our lives say, yeah, we're going to
- 1:41:42Speaker 2: glom onto that. Well, no, when the plug gets pulled
- 1:41:45Speaker 2: by the very people who created it because they have
- 1:41:46Speaker 2: been revealed to have been well liars, effectively, you might
- 1:41:51Speaker 2: lose some support among people about the concept. And of
- 1:41:56Speaker 2: course the price of energy going up and our energy
- 1:41:58Speaker 2: demands can increasing all the time. The realities, the practical
- 1:42:01Speaker 2: realities that you know, wind and solar can't meet our
- 1:42:04Speaker 2: energy demands. Those things are coming home. Those chickens are
- 1:42:07Speaker 2: coming home to roost. More people are paying attention to that.
- 1:42:10Speaker 2: You mean, we can't wind ourselves into energy generation. No,
- 1:42:14Speaker 2: it doesn't work, it's not reliable, it's expensive, and of
- 1:42:16Speaker 2: course it doesn't do anything to remove carbon from the atmosphere,
- 1:42:19Speaker 2: which was the predicate for doing in the first place,
- 1:42:22Speaker 2: like carbon dioxide causes global warming. Okay, you wuldn't even
- 1:42:25Speaker 2: concede that point, I don't. Let's say it's true. Study
- 1:42:29Speaker 2: out just the other day was from Nature and they
- 1:42:33Speaker 2: looked at satellite imagery, two different satellites that they used,
- 1:42:35Speaker 2: both of which collect different information on how much greening
- 1:42:39Speaker 2: there has been. And there has been a massive, you know,
- 1:42:42Speaker 2: record level improvement in plant vegetation here, including crops, which
- 1:42:47Speaker 2: means there's more food out in the world, but a
- 1:42:51Speaker 2: lot more greening record years last two years for greening.
- 1:42:55Speaker 2: Why plant food aren't planned good? Aren't more plants good?
- 1:43:02Speaker 2: They do produce oxygen. We need that and the plants
- 1:43:06Speaker 2: need carbon dioxide, stating the obvious. So there's another reason
- 1:43:10Speaker 2: why it shouldn't bother you. And of course you know
- 1:43:12Speaker 2: we're not like record levels of carbon dioxide right now.
- 1:43:15Speaker 2: They've done bores sampling over the years. I mean, the
- 1:43:16Speaker 2: parts per million on carbon dioxide have just varied wildly
- 1:43:21Speaker 2: over the course of the globe's history. So yes, the climate,
- 1:43:24Speaker 2: I guess does change, so does the level of carbon dioxide.
- 1:43:27Speaker 2: But this happens even in the absence of an industrial
- 1:43:30Speaker 2: revolution and US using carbon of fossil fuels. Just remember,
- 1:43:34Speaker 2: you're not going to eliminate carbon dioxide as long as
- 1:43:36Speaker 2: you have volcanoes, wildfires, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
- 1:43:39Speaker 2: That's really occurring phenomenon good for plants, and voter attitudes
- 1:43:44Speaker 2: have changed the new CNN. I know, Poles, I get it,
- 1:43:46Speaker 2: I know. But in terms of what voters take seriously,
- 1:43:50Speaker 2: it's easy to ask a person what is your primary issues,
- 1:43:52Speaker 2: what is the biggest concern, what means the most to you?
- 1:43:56Speaker 2: From political problems that we're facing in the economy of
- 1:43:59Speaker 2: the politicians might be able to address the economy comes
- 1:44:02Speaker 2: in at number one, fifty four percent. This is a
- 1:44:04Speaker 2: bipartisan survey Republicans and Democrats, and they did break it
- 1:44:07Speaker 2: down immigration number two at twenty eight percent. Climate change, well,
- 1:44:13Speaker 2: you have to go all the way down to number
- 1:44:15Speaker 2: fourteen in terms of what we are concerned about at
- 1:44:19Speaker 2: three percent. And the Democrats slate of candidates are all
- 1:44:24Speaker 2: still running on green energy policies, so you can back
- 1:44:28Speaker 2: them into the corner on that. Find out where they
- 1:44:31Speaker 2: are in small modular reactors too. My friends and reporters
- 1:44:34Speaker 2: who have access to politicians seeking your vote. No carbon
- 1:44:37Speaker 2: dioxide there, yeah, and abundant electricity, can we get our
- 1:44:40Speaker 2: hands on that? Energy prices have gone through the roof.
- 1:44:43Speaker 2: That may be another reason people were maybe rejecting this
- 1:44:46Speaker 2: green alarmism, even reflecting back on all the dangers and
- 1:44:49Speaker 2: problems we were supposed to be facing by now. Hey,
- 1:44:52Speaker 2: Al Gore, I thought New York City was going to
- 1:44:53Speaker 2: be underwater ten years ago according to your original predictions.
- 1:44:57Speaker 2: That didn't come true. Barack Obama even bought a house
- 1:44:59Speaker 2: on the wall. Why why did he do that? So
- 1:45:04Speaker 2: maybe people are catching on we're being lied to. They
- 1:45:08Speaker 2: own it, their policies moving forward, and I have a
- 1:45:14Speaker 2: why are we remember getting rid of cars?
- 1:45:17Speaker 8: Right?
- 1:45:17Speaker 2: That was the thing? Electric vehicles or no vehicles at alls.
- 1:45:21Speaker 2: We're going to push for public transportation. I'm gonna take
- 1:45:23Speaker 2: Evan's call, but I'm going to point out one of
- 1:45:25Speaker 2: the the great, wonderful Democrat solutions to get people on
- 1:45:30Speaker 2: public transportation rather than driving around. Oh, it's going to
- 1:45:33Speaker 2: be great. We just need a high speed rail. Evelyn,
- 1:45:36Speaker 2: Welcome to the fifty five KCY Morning Show. Thanks for
- 1:45:39Speaker 2: calling this morning.
- 1:45:40Speaker 14: Yep, thanks Brian. Well, you know there's some more science
- 1:45:44Speaker 14: shuro science from the psychologists who say this, children need
- 1:45:50Speaker 14: to have their genitals.
- 1:45:52Speaker 15: Removed because of their feelings, gender preference, and now that
- 1:45:57Speaker 15: Medicare isn't paying for them anymore of shoe children will
- 1:46:02Speaker 15: be spared. Can you imagine growing up and saying to
- 1:46:06Speaker 15: your parents, why did you let them do that?
- 1:46:09Speaker 2: Amen? Amen? And they are now facing greater challenges from
- 1:46:14Speaker 2: the plaintiffs bar. There may be legal liability associated with
- 1:46:18Speaker 2: cutting off a child's genitals, right, so that'll frighten a
- 1:46:22Speaker 2: lot of them off.
- 1:46:24Speaker 15: Well, I mean it should not be allowed obviously.
- 1:46:29Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like Joseph Mengela. Something you read about from
- 1:46:32Speaker 2: World War Two and the in the in the experience
- 1:46:34Speaker 2: that creep exactly exactly horror show. You can double down
- 1:46:42Speaker 2: on that one all day long. One another one owned
- 1:46:44Speaker 2: by the Democrats. The whole idea that we are even
- 1:46:47Speaker 2: having a debate that a guy can declare himself a
- 1:46:50Speaker 2: woman and we're supposed to accept it. What a gift
- 1:46:54Speaker 2: from the w n b A on that one, right,
- 1:46:59Speaker 2: Democrats own that whole concept. Very political issue. That one pronouns. Eh, listen,
- 1:47:08Speaker 2: if you're on my side of the ledger on that one,
- 1:47:09Speaker 2: you're on the right side of the ledger. And that's
- 1:47:10Speaker 2: again you don't let them label you a phobic. There's
- 1:47:14Speaker 2: nothing to do with that. This is going to do
- 1:47:17Speaker 2: with science. Going back to my libertarian principles, I point
- 1:47:20Speaker 2: out all the time, go ahead, declare yourself a woman.
- 1:47:22Speaker 2: You can walk around all day long. I believe you
- 1:47:25Speaker 2: believe you're a woman. That I'm not questioning your your
- 1:47:28Speaker 2: perspective on that. Why bother. It's subjective, not my opinion though,
- 1:47:35Speaker 2: And I'll hang my hat on science, which is objective. Huh.
- 1:47:43Speaker 2: There is a truth on that one. Take that to
- 1:47:45Speaker 2: the polls. Back over to California's high speed Rail project
- 1:47:48Speaker 2: the answer to all of our traffic congestion problems. All
- 1:47:50Speaker 2: we need is a high speed rail. Yes, it's a
- 1:47:54Speaker 2: real thing. It's gonna go from Los Angeles to San Francisco.
- 1:47:57Speaker 2: It's only gonna take you a little bit of time.
- 1:47:58Speaker 2: It's a five hour plus drive three hundred and eighty
- 1:48:00Speaker 2: two miles. We're gonna get you there quicker and with
- 1:48:03Speaker 2: no carbon output or whatever. How's it working out? California
- 1:48:06Speaker 2: High Speed Rail project is running out of money, and
- 1:48:09Speaker 2: it may be completely out of money as soon as
- 1:48:11Speaker 2: next year, according to a new report from the project
- 1:48:13Speaker 2: Inspector General. Trust me, you are on the hook right
- 1:48:16Speaker 2: now for a whole bunch of money that's already been
- 1:48:18Speaker 2: spent on this which they've lost. Inspector General for the
- 1:48:21Speaker 2: high speed Rail. They've got one of those good morning
- 1:48:23Speaker 2: todsz ins or if you're out there, Benjamin ben Bell
- 1:48:25Speaker 2: knaps this guy's name set a letter to the lawmaker
- 1:48:31Speaker 2: and the governor. The Inspector General included a set of
- 1:48:34Speaker 2: bullet points, including the stated business plan does not sufficiently
- 1:48:39Speaker 2: emphasize that the authority will exhaust its current funding resources
- 1:48:42Speaker 2: as soon as December twenty twenty seven if it does
- 1:48:45Speaker 2: not secure financing. That means the project is on the
- 1:48:49Speaker 2: brink of financial crisis if lawmakers and governor and the
- 1:48:52Speaker 2: governor do not figure out a way to continue funding
- 1:48:55Speaker 2: this boondoggle. So far as eighteen billion dollars with the
- 1:49:00Speaker 2: b has been spent on the project. How much rail's
- 1:49:02Speaker 2: been laid right None. Original vision was LA to San Francisco,
- 1:49:09Speaker 2: expected to cost between one hundred and twenty six and
- 1:49:11Speaker 2: two hundred and thirty one billion dollars. That's quite a range,
- 1:49:14Speaker 2: isn't it. Well, they backed it off, and so they're said, what,
- 1:49:17Speaker 2: we're just going to start by going from MerCad to Bakersfield.
- 1:49:21Speaker 2: I don't know where they got those two cities, but
- 1:49:22Speaker 2: that was the direction they had to go. They couldn't
- 1:49:24Speaker 2: do the whole thing, so let's just limit. It's one
- 1:49:26Speaker 2: hundred and sixty four miles that is expected to cost
- 1:49:28Speaker 2: at least thirty six billion dollars, and according to the
- 1:49:32Speaker 2: Inspector General's report, the high speed rail project has already
- 1:49:35Speaker 2: lost four billion dollars in fronts from the federal government
- 1:49:40Speaker 2: and has not secured any private investment, which they kept
- 1:49:43Speaker 2: saying that they were going to try to do. Project
- 1:49:47Speaker 2: was expected to get a billion dollars a year from
- 1:49:49Speaker 2: California's greenhouse Gas emission Fund. See they've got one of
- 1:49:53Speaker 2: those out there that'd be over the next twenty years.
- 1:49:54Speaker 2: But they had some rule changes in there which impacted
- 1:49:57Speaker 2: the dollar mount that they think they can expect from
- 1:49:59Speaker 2: the fund. And now apparently they don't even know how
- 1:50:00Speaker 2: much money. The state budget that was passed earlier this
- 1:50:03Speaker 2: summer in California zero dollars for the rail project. No
- 1:50:07Speaker 2: new money, this said. The business plan notes it's possible.
- 1:50:13Speaker 2: Funding options include borrowing internally from state resources, which we'll
- 1:50:18Speaker 2: have to do without I guess revenue bonds, and that
- 1:50:21Speaker 2: private sector funding which hasn't materialized. So they say they
- 1:50:26Speaker 2: got to hurry up and get some strategy for funding
- 1:50:28Speaker 2: in place or they're going to fail, and that will
- 1:50:31Speaker 2: be next year. That's what we call a colossal waste,
- 1:50:35Speaker 2: you know, and scratch your head in wonder since they
- 1:50:38Speaker 2: lost four billion dollars so far without laying a single
- 1:50:43Speaker 2: mile of rail. Who got that money? How do you
- 1:50:47Speaker 2: lose four billion dollars? It's a great question. Eight seventeen
- 1:50:54Speaker 2: fifty five krc DE talk station Don't Go Away, a
- 1:50:56Speaker 2: little bit more to talk about it, and then we'll
- 1:50:57Speaker 2: get to iHeart Media Aviation expert Jay.
- 1:50:59Speaker 1: Ratliffe fifty five The talk Station for.
- 1:51:03Speaker 2: More in the talk station, Hey twenty one to pick
- 1:51:07Speaker 2: up Kercity Talk Station, Happy Friday, e Tech Friday with
- 1:51:11Speaker 2: Dave Had to Tomorrow Plument Listening. Hey, I appreciate John
- 1:51:16Speaker 2: Lott bringing out the numbers and providing some sanity to it. Yes,
- 1:51:19Speaker 2: something else that Republicans can run on crime. If you
- 1:51:23Speaker 2: want to pick a party that's hard on crime or ordeals,
- 1:51:26Speaker 2: harsh criminal justice, et cetera. That kind of thing locks
- 1:51:28Speaker 2: people up when they commit crimes, is harder on crime,
- 1:51:31Speaker 2: doesn't let woke. That's the Republicans. Obviously Democrats we have
- 1:51:34Speaker 2: this woke ideology that oh we just need to kit
- 1:51:36Speaker 2: a slap and it's criminal justice system's bad, it's racist,
- 1:51:40Speaker 2: it's wrong, whatever. But you know, nobody likes crime. It
- 1:51:43Speaker 2: affects everybody's neighborhoods. But it's at its record low, at
- 1:51:47Speaker 2: least the murder rate since national record keeping megan in
- 1:51:50Speaker 2: nineteen hundred. Previous previous record low murder rate was about
- 1:51:54Speaker 2: four point five per one hundred thousand people. It stood
- 1:51:57Speaker 2: at five per one hundred thousand and twenty twenty four,
- 1:52:01Speaker 2: it fell to under four last year, and on current trends,
- 1:52:05Speaker 2: the Council on Criminal Justice said currently were eighteen percent
- 1:52:09Speaker 2: lower in murders across the thirtieth largest cities in the
- 1:52:13Speaker 2: nation for the first half of this year, and if
- 1:52:15Speaker 2: that trends continues, then the murder rate will fall to
- 1:52:18Speaker 2: about three point twenty five per one hundred thousand, which
- 1:52:21Speaker 2: again would be the lowest rate ever recorded. Huh. As
- 1:52:25Speaker 2: a lot points out, reducing crime isn't complicated. Governments reduced
- 1:52:29Speaker 2: crime by increasing the certainty of arrest conviction, imposing meaningful
- 1:52:32Speaker 2: prison sentences, allowing law abiding citizens to defend themselves. Start
- 1:52:36Speaker 2: with the FBI, they increased dramatically law enforcement. Last year,
- 1:52:40Speaker 2: arrest arose one hundred and eighty four percent over twenty
- 1:52:43Speaker 2: twenty four levels that be Joe Biden. Total FBI arrests,
- 1:52:47Speaker 2: along with those with state operations, increased to one hundred
- 1:52:51Speaker 2: and ninety seven percent, So that's a lot. A bunch
- 1:52:55Speaker 2: of George Soros prosecutors got removed, like in Los Angeles
- 1:52:58Speaker 2: and San Francisco, replaced with district attorneys who prosecute criminals
- 1:53:02Speaker 2: more aggressively looking for tougher sentences, like For example, President
- 1:53:06Speaker 2: Trump's US attorneys have pursued violent offenders far more aggressively
- 1:53:10Speaker 2: than those under Biden. Biden administration declined to prosecute sixty
- 1:53:14Speaker 2: seven percent of those arrested. That number is now down
- 1:53:17Speaker 2: to four percent under Genie Perro. Declined crime also coincided
- 1:53:23Speaker 2: with increased immigration enforcement.
- 1:53:26Speaker 11: OH.
- 1:53:27Speaker 2: Approximately seventy percent of deported illegal immigrants under the Trump
- 1:53:30Speaker 2: administration have either had criminal convictions or pending criminal charges.
- 1:53:34Speaker 2: So and a lot points out. Even those without criminal
- 1:53:37Speaker 2: records get it that any contact with law enforcement can
- 1:53:40Speaker 2: lead to deportation. So they've got one more incentive not
- 1:53:43Speaker 2: to break the law. Go out, murder somebody. Felony. Violent
- 1:53:47Speaker 2: crime rates soared by a record fifty nine percent during
- 1:53:49Speaker 2: the Biden administration. OH. That also coincided with a record
- 1:53:53Speaker 2: influx of illegals come into our country. Now, if the
- 1:53:57Speaker 2: border's closed and illegals are being deported, notably the criminal ones, now,
- 1:54:00Speaker 2: the violent crime is plummeting. More Americans ultimately now are
- 1:54:04Speaker 2: carrying concealed hair and guns as well. Survey show the
- 1:54:06Speaker 2: share of general election voters who do carry increase from
- 1:54:09Speaker 2: twenty four point three in December of twenty four to
- 1:54:13Speaker 2: thirty point nine in July this year. Also notable that
- 1:54:17Speaker 2: Hispanic and black voters are carrying at a substantially higher
- 1:54:19Speaker 2: rate than white voters. Among those who carry all or
- 1:54:24Speaker 2: most of the time, Hispanics and Blacks two point six
- 1:54:27Speaker 2: times more likely than whites to do so, and as
- 1:54:30Speaker 2: Lot says, that pattern matters because if you are going
- 1:54:32Speaker 2: to reduce violent crime, you must ensure that the most
- 1:54:34Speaker 2: likely victims can defend themselves. That is exactly right. So
- 1:54:39Speaker 2: something else to hang your hat on. Precipitously low murder
- 1:54:42Speaker 2: rate comparatively, and it's a result of Republican leaning policies.
- 1:54:49Speaker 2: Eight twenty five. If you five krcit talk station and
- 1:54:51Speaker 2: that time of week I always look forward to. I
- 1:54:52Speaker 2: heard mediaviation Expert Jay Ratliff coming up next fifty five
- 1:54:56Speaker 2: KRC dot com. This simply my far Sea the talk
- 1:54:59Speaker 2: station A thirty on a Friday Eve. It's that time.
- 1:55:04Speaker 2: I always look forward to this. I hope you do too.
- 1:55:07Speaker 2: I heart Media aviation Expert Jay Ratler. Welcome back to
- 1:55:10Speaker 2: the show. My friend. Always love having you on the program.
- 1:55:13Speaker 8: Well, I don't want to jinx things. But you're sounding
- 1:55:14Speaker 8: good this morning.
- 1:55:15Speaker 2: Brother. Oh well, thank you man. You know I never know.
- 1:55:19Speaker 8: Well, I've come up from the phone standpoint. You're your
- 1:55:22Speaker 8: usual outstanding self. I'm throwing a jinx on the technology.
- 1:55:29Speaker 2: Oh okay, y'all. We have been complaining about the phone system.
- 1:55:32Speaker 2: You know, we do work for a media company. You
- 1:55:34Speaker 2: think they might have that one down, Jay Addie Howe.
- 1:55:36Speaker 2: I don't want to bite the hand that feeds me
- 1:55:38Speaker 2: too hard, but sometimes it's appropriately placed blame and maybe
- 1:55:41Speaker 2: complaining about it out loud and maybe he's resulting in
- 1:55:44Speaker 2: some embarrassment to someone might get the problem solved. You know,
- 1:55:47Speaker 2: that's how that works.
- 1:55:49Speaker 8: I remember rolling into those new studios and having more
- 1:55:52Speaker 8: than our share fair share challenges.
- 1:55:54Speaker 2: It did take a while. It did take a while
- 1:55:56Speaker 2: iron them out. We will ultimately, Jay ratlift. All right,
- 1:55:59Speaker 2: let's uh artificial intelligence going haywire over to American Airlines
- 1:56:03Speaker 2: day Brian.
- 1:56:05Speaker 8: They've got this great technology and it is that is
- 1:56:08Speaker 8: designed to when it during times of irregular operation, it
- 1:56:11Speaker 8: will take Brian's itinerary see that there's a problem and
- 1:56:17Speaker 8: will automatically rebook you on a later flight so you're confirmed.
- 1:56:20Speaker 8: You have nothing to worry about when you travel. The
- 1:56:23Speaker 8: problem is apparently this AI systems alive and doing things
- 1:56:27Speaker 8: that's not supposed to do. For example, Brian now shows
- 1:56:30Speaker 8: up in Chicago connecting. You get to your gate, you
- 1:56:33Speaker 8: got an hour to connect. You get to the gate
- 1:56:35Speaker 8: of departure for the agents say, I'm sorry, mister Thomas,
- 1:56:37Speaker 8: your reservation has been changed to a later flight. You're
- 1:56:40Speaker 8: going to say, been changed to a later fight. Oh, yes,
- 1:56:43Speaker 8: you did. What's happened is this AI system is now
- 1:56:46Speaker 8: arbitrarily just changing reservations even if they don't need.
- 1:56:51Speaker 4: To be changed.
- 1:56:52Speaker 8: Now is as if we need a kicker to the
- 1:56:55Speaker 8: kicker here it is the agent you're talking to is
- 1:56:57Speaker 8: locked out by AI. They can't change it. So, oh
- 1:57:04Speaker 8: my lord, American is having some issues here, and they
- 1:57:08Speaker 8: don't need anymore because they're they're they're the step child
- 1:57:11Speaker 8: at this point in time. They see Delta United making
- 1:57:13Speaker 8: a billion dollars a quarter, they're trying to make you know,
- 1:57:16Speaker 8: two three hundred million something like that. But yeah, they
- 1:57:19Speaker 8: got to fix this and fast because the last people
- 1:57:21Speaker 8: you want to tick off, especially or your big time
- 1:57:24Speaker 8: frequent flyers who are being told your reservation has been changed. Look,
- 1:57:28Speaker 8: I love the AI systems that airlines have. Where if
- 1:57:30Speaker 8: my flight's delayed, I get the text message saying here's
- 1:57:33Speaker 8: what's going on. Here are your options. What do you want?
- 1:57:35Speaker 8: I love that. Yeah, but to do it without me
- 1:57:38Speaker 8: even being in the loop or where? What's going on
- 1:57:41Speaker 8: on a flight that doesn't need to be changed?
- 1:57:43Speaker 9: Yeah?
- 1:57:44Speaker 2: Well, if it's making its own decision making and changing flights,
- 1:57:47Speaker 2: it don't need to be changed. And that seems like
- 1:57:49Speaker 2: a pretty easy solution. No computer programmer, am I. But
- 1:57:52Speaker 2: you know, with artificial intelligence actually writing code, why not
- 1:57:55Speaker 2: just go to one of the AI programs and say, Hey,
- 1:57:58Speaker 2: this system that I have here is automatically changing flights.
- 1:58:01Speaker 2: It shouldn't be changed. Can you provide me with a solution.
- 1:58:03Speaker 2: You'll probably generate code to do just that. But that's hope.
- 1:58:07Speaker 2: That's where.
- 1:58:08Speaker 8: What's it going to do next that it's.
- 1:58:09Speaker 9: Not supposed to do?
- 1:58:10Speaker 2: It's going to build a smart bomb? Jay, good lord,
- 1:58:14Speaker 2: dirty bomb?
- 1:58:16Speaker 8: It is This AI journey we're on is going to
- 1:58:19Speaker 8: be interesting, to say the least.
- 1:58:20Speaker 2: All right, well, let's pause on the Toddler one and
- 1:58:23Speaker 2: stick with American Airlines offering flight attendants a chance to
- 1:58:26Speaker 2: take a month of September off.
- 1:58:28Speaker 8: Yeah, September is, as you and I've talked about all
- 1:58:31Speaker 8: so many times, is one of the two slowest travel
- 1:58:34Speaker 8: months of the year. May in September. You want to
- 1:58:35Speaker 8: save a lot of money traveling go those months because
- 1:58:39Speaker 8: it's so slow. American, knowing that, is adjusting their schedule.
- 1:58:42Speaker 8: They've got too many flight attendants, so they're saying, look
- 1:58:45Speaker 8: up to twelve hundred and five flight attendants, if you
- 1:58:47Speaker 8: want to take the month off without pay leave of absence,
- 1:58:50Speaker 8: we're allowing you to do that. And I suspect it's
- 1:58:53Speaker 8: like four percent of their flight attendant force, I believe,
- 1:58:55Speaker 8: so they'll probably be able to knock that out with
- 1:58:58Speaker 8: that too much trouble, But American's trying to save money
- 1:59:00Speaker 8: as they can. They just got done shaking up the
- 1:59:04Speaker 8: entire senior management team, getting rid of a lot of people,
- 1:59:06Speaker 8: replacing them with others, hoping that they can start to
- 1:59:09Speaker 8: turn things around. But in the meantime, they're saving money
- 1:59:12Speaker 8: as they can, so they're gonna have a reduced flight
- 1:59:14Speaker 8: operation in September because again, it is a very slow time.
- 1:59:17Speaker 8: And I tell you, some of these flight attendants have
- 1:59:19Speaker 8: just gone through this summer travel season with a lot
- 1:59:21Speaker 8: of crazy people. I suspect there's gonna be plenty of
- 1:59:23Speaker 8: flight attendants. They're gonna be very very happy at taking
- 1:59:26Speaker 8: a month off just to get their sanity back.
- 1:59:29Speaker 2: Yeah. And you know what the kids going back to school,
- 1:59:31Speaker 2: do you they scent they have? I mean, they'll be
- 1:59:32Speaker 2: a nice a nice, nice pause. It's like vacation there
- 1:59:36Speaker 2: for sure, even if you don't go anywhere.
- 1:59:37Speaker 8: Well, I'm paid.
- 1:59:38Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. Out of control toddlers in the news aviation news.
- 1:59:42Speaker 2: That'll be next long with other stories with iHeart MEATIA
- 1:59:44Speaker 2: aviation expert Jay Rytliff. I invite you to stick around.
- 1:59:48Speaker 1: Fifty five KRC the toography the talk station.
- 1:59:52Speaker 2: Have you ever been in a cockpit?
- 1:59:54Speaker 4: Before?
- 1:59:55Speaker 2: Eight thirty nine? For the five KRCIT talk station, Jay
- 1:59:59Speaker 2: rallis on the phony. The iHeartMedia aviation expert. He is
- 2:00:02Speaker 2: nationwide and we get the benefit of him for a
- 2:00:04Speaker 2: few segments around the fifty five Casey warning sure every
- 2:00:06Speaker 2: Thursday at eight thirty moving over out of control toddlers.
- 2:00:11Speaker 2: I guess that's a problem, Jay.
- 2:00:13Speaker 8: Well, yeah, and this one caused a flight to be canceled. Now,
- 2:00:16Speaker 8: being a toddler we can rule out alcohol was not involved,
- 2:00:20Speaker 8: and I doubt the toddler tried to storm the cockpit.
- 2:00:22Speaker 8: But what happened here was they're flying from Victoria, Canada,
- 2:00:26Speaker 8: over to Toronto ten thirty at night flight and that
- 2:00:30Speaker 8: the airport has a midnight curfew. Everything has to be
- 2:00:34Speaker 8: take off by midnight, airport closed. So they're ninety minutes
- 2:00:39Speaker 8: before that. They take off and they're rolling for taxing
- 2:00:41Speaker 8: for takeoff, and they the flight attest look back and
- 2:00:44Speaker 8: they've got this kid, this toddler is standing up in
- 2:00:47Speaker 8: the seat. Well, they stopped the plane because every passenger
- 2:00:50Speaker 8: has to be seated and secured in their seat, and
- 2:00:53Speaker 8: this toddler was not, and he wasn't having anything to
- 2:00:57Speaker 8: do with it, throwing an absolute fit. To help, the
- 2:01:00Speaker 8: frantic parents tried to help, They did everything they could.
- 2:01:04Speaker 8: Finally the captain said enough and we're going to taxi
- 2:01:06Speaker 8: all the way back the gate to let the passengers off.
- 2:01:09Speaker 8: It's now well after eleven o'clock. Because of the past
- 2:01:12Speaker 8: oppositive passenger bag match, the security protocol that's in place
- 2:01:16Speaker 8: anytime a passenger doesn't fly, we have to remove their bags.
- 2:01:21Speaker 8: We have to find their bags to remove their bags,
- 2:01:24Speaker 8: so underneath they go, they try to find all the
- 2:01:27Speaker 8: family's bags. By the time they do, Brian, it's now
- 2:01:30Speaker 8: twelve oh one airport closed, flight canceled mm yep. Parents
- 2:01:36Speaker 8: felt horrible. Many of the passengers came to the parents'
- 2:01:40Speaker 8: you know, aid say, look, it's not their fault. We've
- 2:01:44Speaker 8: all been there. Now, some people I know probably didn't understand,
- 2:01:47Speaker 8: but you know, I mean there's times kids just you know,
- 2:01:50Speaker 8: and you can't exactly wear a mountain in front of you.
- 2:01:52Speaker 8: One hundred and eighteen witnesses.
- 2:01:53Speaker 2: So now the old school remedy for that. And I
- 2:01:55Speaker 2: do believe my parents were aware of this is drama
- 2:01:58Speaker 2: meeting well.
- 2:02:00Speaker 8: Yeah, drug them, I mean well er before they went
- 2:02:03Speaker 8: on a road trip.
- 2:02:04Speaker 9: Her dad, Daryl Cooley, they would, yeah, they would.
- 2:02:08Speaker 8: They would give her some nice does Germany so they
- 2:02:10Speaker 8: could enjoy the flight. Now she'd go. So it's you know,
- 2:02:14Speaker 8: I don't know if that's something that they'd done or
- 2:02:16Speaker 8: haven't done, but you know, I suspect there might be
- 2:02:19Speaker 8: a look to that. But at the end of a
- 2:02:21Speaker 8: long day like that, I mean, everybody's just spent and
- 2:02:23Speaker 8: you're ready to get to where you're going. And oh yeah,
- 2:02:26Speaker 8: a few times. I can remember a toddler actually causing
- 2:02:28Speaker 8: not a flight delay, which is common, but yeah, one
- 2:02:31Speaker 8: to be canceled altogether.
- 2:02:32Speaker 2: Not a shame. Anyway, we go to Malaysia where they
- 2:02:36Speaker 2: apparently are looking to drug test all crew members.
- 2:02:40Speaker 8: You and I talked about a Malaysian Airlines pilot. Yeah,
- 2:02:43Speaker 8: that was caught smuggling seventy and fourteen ecstasy pills and
- 2:02:47Speaker 8: was high on cocaine coming off of a flight. The
- 2:02:50Speaker 8: Malaysian government, who's not really known for being preemptive or
- 2:02:55Speaker 8: even proactive in some ways, came out and said, uh,
- 2:02:59Speaker 8: every airline base in Malaysia, every pilot, every crew member,
- 2:03:03Speaker 8: and they're probably throwing in the mechanics as well, are
- 2:03:05Speaker 8: going to be drug tests in the next thirty days period.
- 2:03:08Speaker 8: We're going to make sure that this is not looked
- 2:03:10Speaker 8: at as a widespread problem. We're gonna mif it right
- 2:03:13Speaker 8: now and this is going to happen or there'll be consequences.
- 2:03:16Speaker 8: So airlines there are now at a point where they're
- 2:03:19Speaker 8: going to have to drug test all of their crew
- 2:03:21Speaker 8: members within thirty days to make sure a they don't
- 2:03:24Speaker 8: have anything going on and be to kind of show
- 2:03:27Speaker 8: the public look, this was a isolated incident, nothing that
- 2:03:30Speaker 8: we need to worry about.
- 2:03:32Speaker 2: Well, at least some of them will have a significant
- 2:03:35Speaker 2: enough buffer that didn't get the weed out of their system.
- 2:03:37Speaker 8: Well fortunately any of that stuff. So I don't know
- 2:03:40Speaker 8: how long it takes to any get rid of any
- 2:03:42Speaker 8: of it, but yeah, I was you know, the Malaysian
- 2:03:45Speaker 8: government was the one that when that Malaysian flight went missing.
- 2:03:50Speaker 8: It took them six hours to task for help because
- 2:03:53Speaker 8: they said no, no, no, no, no, we got it, we
- 2:03:54Speaker 8: got it, we got it, even though we had no
- 2:03:56Speaker 8: clue where the plane was, wasn't responsive, wasn't on its
- 2:03:59Speaker 8: assigned light path. You had so many countries that were
- 2:04:02Speaker 8: nearby offering assistance, and they kept saying no until the
- 2:04:06Speaker 8: sixth hour and the it's like okay, but by then
- 2:04:09Speaker 8: it was deplete. So that's why when seeing him take
- 2:04:11Speaker 8: this approach, Yeah, Brian, it was kind of a kind
- 2:04:13Speaker 8: of ale.
- 2:04:14Speaker 2: Yeah, no question. Now jumping forward American other American airlines
- 2:04:17Speaker 2: story that these always scare me because we have a
- 2:04:19Speaker 2: bird strike and it impacted the engine pretty badly.
- 2:04:23Speaker 8: Yeah, and it shut it down, Well, it caused it
- 2:04:25Speaker 8: catch on fire. Well, it backfired and there were flames
- 2:04:29Speaker 8: coming out of the back. I hate saying it caught
- 2:04:31Speaker 8: on fire, because that's the suspect or gives the impressions
- 2:04:35Speaker 8: going to continue for some time. But what happened to
- 2:04:37Speaker 8: this plane was taking off from Myrtle Beach and went
- 2:04:39Speaker 8: through a bunch of birds. The porter left engine ingested birds,
- 2:04:43Speaker 8: it shut down, the compressors had issues. You got flame
- 2:04:47Speaker 8: shooting out the back. Passengers sitting next to the window
- 2:04:50Speaker 8: looking out at this engine. I mean, these flames are
- 2:04:52Speaker 8: shooting four or five feet back behind it. And as
- 2:04:55Speaker 8: the compression issues are occurring and they shut the engine down,
- 2:04:59Speaker 8: they can power up the one engine flying Definitely, they
- 2:05:01Speaker 8: just turned around and landed. But there was so much
- 2:05:03Speaker 8: video of it from the plane and on the ground
- 2:05:06Speaker 8: that it went viral for all the obvious reasons. But again,
- 2:05:09Speaker 8: pilots are trained in fact that they practiced before they
- 2:05:13Speaker 8: leave the gate. When they're talking, they said, look at
- 2:05:17Speaker 8: this point of the runway point of no return. Once
- 2:05:20Speaker 8: we're airborne, if we've got to come back, this is
- 2:05:22Speaker 8: the runway we're going to use. They run through all
- 2:05:24Speaker 8: of that scenario as far as an emergency return on
- 2:05:27Speaker 8: every single departure, just in case something happens, This crew
- 2:05:31Speaker 8: knew immediately what they were going to do, communicated to
- 2:05:34Speaker 8: air traffic control, came back and landed. Wasn't a problem
- 2:05:36Speaker 8: at home.
- 2:05:37Speaker 2: I'm glad to hear that, Jay Rattleff, I'm glad to
- 2:05:39Speaker 2: hear it. You know, an ounce of prevention. There, you
- 2:05:42Speaker 2: have it.
- 2:05:42Speaker 8: The reason why every single flight that's good departure.
- 2:05:45Speaker 2: Protocol, that's a pre flight checklist, can they go through?
- 2:05:48Speaker 2: Is that what that is? Part of perfect? All right?
- 2:05:50Speaker 2: A little more confidence instilled in me anyway with that note,
- 2:05:53Speaker 2: now let's move forward. We'll come back with Jay about
- 2:05:55Speaker 2: Southwest Airline passenger had an in flight medical emergency. We'll
- 2:05:59Speaker 2: do that and a couple other stories, and plus get
- 2:06:01Speaker 2: an update on hub delays. Don't go away.
- 2:06:03Speaker 5: Fifty five KRC the talk station.
- 2:06:09Speaker 2: Fifty five KRC de talk station. I heard media aviation
- 2:06:13Speaker 2: expert Jay Rattler finishing out the morning with some other
- 2:06:16Speaker 2: interesting stories and what a crazy reality would be to
- 2:06:19Speaker 2: die on an airplane. This is what happened the other
- 2:06:21Speaker 2: on a Southwest Airlines flight.
- 2:06:23Speaker 8: Yeah, Dallas coming into I believe it was Los Angeles,
- 2:06:26Speaker 8: and a passenger went into a distress as they were
- 2:06:30Speaker 8: approaching Los Angeles. Flight attendants called for any many on
- 2:06:34Speaker 8: board with medical training to assist, and they were using
- 2:06:38Speaker 8: the defibrillator, doing all that they could, and sadly the
- 2:06:41Speaker 8: passenger died. He was twenty two years old.
- 2:06:43Speaker 2: Oh my god.
- 2:06:45Speaker 8: Yeah, So the autopsy's gonna be conducted to try to find.
- 2:06:50Speaker 2: Out the cause of death COVID nineteen shot.
- 2:06:53Speaker 8: I don't know what it was, but I can tell
- 2:06:55Speaker 8: you that this ryan that the family that would have
- 2:06:58Speaker 8: been traveling perhaps with with the and the passengers on board,
- 2:07:01Speaker 8: the flight attendants. I mean, I've been on flights where
- 2:07:05Speaker 8: we've never lost anyone, be where we've had these medical situations,
- 2:07:08Speaker 8: and they they're intense, and you have the entire plane
- 2:07:11Speaker 8: aware of what's going on. You've got a lot of
- 2:07:13Speaker 8: people that are praying and certainly hoping for a good outcome,
- 2:07:16Speaker 8: and sometimes it just doesn't happen. And given the number
- 2:07:20Speaker 8: of people that fly around the world every single day, statistically,
- 2:07:23Speaker 8: I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often. But I tell
- 2:07:26Speaker 8: you what it does, it's just a sad, sad situation.
- 2:07:28Speaker 8: You feel for everybody, passenger's crew, family that were connected
- 2:07:32Speaker 8: with this. Oh y Hopefully they can find out exactly
- 2:07:35Speaker 8: what happened. But twenty two years of age.
- 2:07:37Speaker 2: That is so sad. Anyway, Delta passengers had to evacuate.
- 2:07:42Speaker 2: What happened on this one?
- 2:07:44Speaker 8: It was a flight in Atlanta. They're taxing. The smoke
- 2:07:48Speaker 8: started to fill the cabin and the pilot captain pilot
- 2:07:52Speaker 8: demand said hey, we're evacuating, told their traffic control everybody's
- 2:07:55Speaker 8: getting off the plane, and they did. The noteworthy thing
- 2:07:59Speaker 8: about this. Brian saw the video and maybe counted maybe
- 2:08:02Speaker 8: forty some people coming down those slides. Not a single
- 2:08:07Speaker 8: person had any carry on luggage. That Delta flight crew.
- 2:08:11Speaker 8: I don't know if they were threatening them with bodily
- 2:08:14Speaker 8: harm or what they were doing, but nobody came down
- 2:08:18Speaker 8: those slides with all their belongings. And I was shocked
- 2:08:21Speaker 8: because every single time it's like, okay, we're gonna have
- 2:08:24Speaker 8: twenty forty fifty, how many idiots are gonna come down
- 2:08:27Speaker 8: delaying the departure of a plane with smoke in the cabins.
- 2:08:30Speaker 8: By stopping to collect all their belongings before they get off,
- 2:08:33Speaker 8: this Delta flight crew did a great, great job. Now
- 2:08:36Speaker 8: there may be video out there I have not seen
- 2:08:38Speaker 8: where that's not been the case, but from what I've seen, yeah,
- 2:08:41Speaker 8: they were all coming down the slides with nothing, and
- 2:08:45Speaker 8: I was shocked.
- 2:08:46Speaker 2: Oh please, it shocked. Well, based on everything you and
- 2:08:49Speaker 2: I have talked about over the multiple years we've been
- 2:08:51Speaker 2: doing this, I think you've always highlighted the ones where
- 2:08:54Speaker 2: people all have bags, So I yes. And is there
- 2:08:58Speaker 2: are there any repercussions civil criminal penalties? You know, you
- 2:09:03Speaker 2: banned from flights if you violate the laid down rule,
- 2:09:06Speaker 2: which is do not bring your bags off in case
- 2:09:08Speaker 2: of emergency. I mean you're told that when you're in
- 2:09:10Speaker 2: your uh, when the lady's talking about, you know, bringing
- 2:09:13Speaker 2: your seat belts and how to buckle them and where
- 2:09:15Speaker 2: the exits are in the van of an emergency. So
- 2:09:19Speaker 2: are are there any risks to ignoring that and putting
- 2:09:21Speaker 2: everybody's life in jeopardy by getting your bags?
- 2:09:24Speaker 15: No?
- 2:09:25Speaker 8: I mean you might have a guy behind you yell
- 2:09:26Speaker 8: at you.
- 2:09:27Speaker 4: That's about it.
- 2:09:27Speaker 8: But yeah, you think the FAA would come out and say, yeah, see,
- 2:09:31Speaker 8: if we see this, we're going to find you a
- 2:09:32Speaker 8: hundred thousand dollars. Right, That's what I would do, And
- 2:09:34Speaker 8: and part of the pre flight briefing would be like, oh,
- 2:09:36Speaker 8: by the way, if we do have to exit the
- 2:09:38Speaker 8: aircraft and any of you decide maybe I should grab
- 2:09:41Speaker 8: that bag, you know, maybe the spouse who's with you
- 2:09:44Speaker 8: will tell you that's not a good idea, because the
- 2:09:46Speaker 8: FAA could find you up to one hundred thousand dollars
- 2:09:48Speaker 8: for delaying an emergency evacuation. The game plan is always
- 2:09:52Speaker 8: to get everybody off that aircraft in ninety seconds or
- 2:09:55Speaker 8: left with half the exits blocked in limited visibility. Now
- 2:09:58Speaker 8: when you think it takes four minutes to board that
- 2:10:01Speaker 8: bad boy, and you've got these flight attendants that are
- 2:10:03Speaker 8: trained to such a degree they can get everybody off
- 2:10:06Speaker 8: that airplane if if everything goes as it should and
- 2:10:09Speaker 8: limited visibility half the access in ninety seconds, that's unbelievable
- 2:10:15Speaker 8: that it happens unless you have people that are stopping.
- 2:10:18Speaker 8: We've had we had an American Airlines slight number of
- 2:10:20Speaker 8: years go on fire and it took three and a
- 2:10:23Speaker 8: half to four minutes to get our buddy off the luggage.
- 2:10:26Speaker 8: The National Transportation Safety Board came out in the reports
- 2:10:28Speaker 8: that we have got to do something because these evacuations
- 2:10:31Speaker 8: are being delayed so much beyond that ninety second mark
- 2:10:35Speaker 8: that we demand and the FAA has done nothing, and
- 2:10:39Speaker 8: I tell you why, somebody gets hurt or killed. That's
- 2:10:42Speaker 8: when that's when they're gonna They're gonna, as I always say,
- 2:10:44Speaker 8: they're gonna pull a hamstring, run into the microphone to
- 2:10:47Speaker 8: talk about how much they care and safety is are
- 2:10:49Speaker 8: number one priority. Well, then do something about it, because
- 2:10:52Speaker 8: it's I'm just tired of talking about because eventually it's
- 2:10:55Speaker 8: gonna happen.
- 2:10:55Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 2:10:56Speaker 2: Well, and that's exactly why I brought up. This isn't
- 2:10:58Speaker 2: just a question of you know, could convenience there something.
- 2:11:00Speaker 2: This is a question, literal question of life and death.
- 2:11:03Speaker 2: You are putting your own and someone else's life in
- 2:11:06Speaker 2: peril by doing that.
- 2:11:08Speaker 8: Period there was an Aeroflo There was an Aeroflot flight
- 2:11:10Speaker 8: in Russia. It got struck by lightning, landed the rear,
- 2:11:13Speaker 8: the aircraft is on fire. Everybody's coming out the front exit.
- 2:11:17Speaker 8: You've got a video of people coming down the down
- 2:11:20Speaker 8: the slide, down, the slide, down, the slide, down, the slide,
- 2:11:22Speaker 8: and then there's like this fifteen second pause and the
- 2:11:25Speaker 8: next guy coming out as three or four bag, big
- 2:11:28Speaker 8: bags in his arms, and down he goes. He comes
- 2:11:30Speaker 8: off the plane, few more people booming, blows us up,
- 2:11:33Speaker 8: and forty fift people would ever died. How many people
- 2:11:36Speaker 8: would have lived if that idiot not stopped everything to
- 2:11:40Speaker 8: collect stupid luggage, putting everybody's life behind him at risk.
- 2:11:44Speaker 8: And so we have a precedent of what happens, and
- 2:11:47Speaker 8: we aren't doing anything out of it. It's you know,
- 2:11:50Speaker 8: there's the list of things that we could do to
- 2:11:53Speaker 8: make aviation safer or better is just it's not endless,
- 2:11:57Speaker 8: but it's long. And the all stars at the NTS,
- 2:12:00Speaker 8: we are constantly asking the FAAA to change this or
- 2:12:03Speaker 8: or that, and they continue not to do it.
- 2:12:05Speaker 2: But well usually they don't do it because they capitulate
- 2:12:07Speaker 2: to the airlines, which it'll probably interfere with their profit margin.
- 2:12:10Speaker 2: That law, that rule, that penalty, if you put in place,
- 2:12:12Speaker 2: would not cause the airlines any issues whatsoever. Look at
- 2:12:16Speaker 2: the video footage afterwards, grabbed them, find the people who
- 2:12:18Speaker 2: carried the baggage off, and then prosecute them accordingly. Problems
- 2:12:21Speaker 2: solve at least on that line. Jay, rightlift, what's it
- 2:12:24Speaker 2: look like out there for travel? Let's get our hub
- 2:12:25Speaker 2: delay list in.
- 2:12:27Speaker 8: Minneapolis this morning, Chicago this afternoon. Other than that should
- 2:12:30Speaker 8: be a good data fly.
- 2:12:32Speaker 2: Take advantage of it. Why you can jay rightlift? God
- 2:12:34Speaker 2: bless you, sir, love talking with you. Will talk next Thursday.
- 2:12:36Speaker 2: Do it again and best of health and love to
- 2:12:37Speaker 2: you in your better half. You do, my friend, Thank
- 2:12:40Speaker 2: you fifty five. Right now you're going a chance to
