- 0:56what went on, I will tell you how I see
- 0:58it in between the tea leaves. And then most importantly,
- 1:02you want to conversate with you on how the news
- 1:05of the day is impacting you where you are at
- 1:08four three four eight eight two four two one seven.
- 1:12And like the man said, I am Joe. And you
- 1:16know that was the president just a little while ago
- 1:20as they flew across the Atlantic to Israel. He is
- 1:22there now on we were watching to see he's supposed
- 1:28to address the Kanesset shortly, and we'll try to grab
- 1:33some of that for you. You know, when he begins
- 1:36his address to the Kannesset, it is supposed to be shortly,
- 1:41but we'll let you know. All twenty living hostages have
- 1:45been freed from Hamas captivity, so that's notable, and cont
- 1:53continue to work. These are some of the scenes outside,
- 1:57you know, to Charlie's point about the hospitle just be
- 2:00in exchange for the terrorists. That was always going to
- 2:03be the standard. We saw this name. So the crowds,
- 2:06it's huge crowd outside of the Israeli Government Center as
- 2:12they from Tel Aviv with special Israeli flags with the
- 2:17yellow ribbons over the Star of David festooning the crowd.
- 2:22So again watching for the President to begin his live
- 2:26address to the Kanesset there Now as sadly though, I
- 2:32must report to you that fighting has broken out in
- 2:36Gaza again, but it has nothing to do with the IDF.
- 2:40It has to do with clans and clashes with Hamas
- 2:45they as folks start to move back into Gaza city.
- 2:51Now there is fighting amongst the residents regarding control and contrast.
- 2:59And I guess who gets to be in charge now,
- 3:02So we'll keep an eye on that. But yes, fighting
- 3:05has broken out again in the Gaza strip, but not
- 3:10with the Israeli defense forces now amongst clans and Hamas
- 3:15police as they come back in trying to establish their
- 3:20dominance and their authorities over there. So as we get
- 3:24into this historic Columbus day morning there he goes, saying
- 3:29it out loud again. We'll give you our first things
- 3:32this morning, so we know what we're talking about. President
- 3:37as I said in Israel, I will address the KANESSI shortly.
- 3:43The hostages are out Red Cross on its way to
- 3:48a southern Gaza checkpoint, where it's expected to take the
- 3:51hostages to the Israeli military hospitals. Hillary Clinton even publicly
- 3:57commended President Trump for brokering the peace agreement between Israel
- 4:01and Hamas. Quote, I really commend President Trump and his administration,

- 4:11take a moment to warn Russia that he might send
- 4:14Ukraine long range Tomahawk missiles if Moscow doesn't settle its
- 4:19war there soon. Quote I might say, look, if this
- 4:22war is not going to get settled, I'm going to
- 4:25send them Tomahawks, he told reporters on Air Force One

- 5:35ambitious military expansions, as it plans to spend four point

- 8:03Speaker 9: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 8:07bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 8:13I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 8:18optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 8:22nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 8:26reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 8:31The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 8:36has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 8:42cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 8:46in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
- 8:51healthy cells even from radiation. Total Wellness dot com where

- 13:46Speaker 7: So is the president in Israel for this historic moment
- 13:53and the peace breaking out in the beginnings of it.
- 13:57And don't let's not forget that this is just the
- 14:03beginning of Maybe it's not even the end of the
- 14:06beginning more than it's the beginning of the end. Because
- 14:18when these kind of things have been going on for
- 14:22thousands of years. The the sorry I'm getting people hollering
- 14:38in my years about the president in Israel and getting
- 14:41the video of the audio tracks for you. But you
- 14:53don't end this in a day. And this is the
- 14:56danger I have. All through the weekend, I've been concerned
- 15:02with the way the press is covering it because there
- 15:11I feel like setting it up, especially when you start
- 15:14to get people like Hillary Clinton and folks like that saying, oh, yeah,
- 15:29he did a great job, we did a great job.
- 15:31I just feel like, and I'm sorry if the spider
- 15:34senses are itchy and tingly, but I just feel like
- 15:45that there's a setup coming. There's another shoe waiting to fall.
- 15:48When you hear rom Manual talking about how great this
- 16:03is and how he really deserves a lot of credit.
- 16:15The you know, am I wrong in feeling that way?
- 16:21It's just that feels like there are too many people
- 16:24who would generally sit there and say, oh, this is
- 16:28just President Trump continuing to try to cut foreign US aid.
- 16:33He makes peace in between Kaza, Well, what are we
- 16:36supposed to do with all these un AID personnel that
- 16:39we're paying for? Because that's what they do. Everything the
- 16:53president does has got to be seen in a negative light.
- 17:03You can't just have a good moment. And when they
- 17:06come out and they say, hey, this was really good,
- 17:09I'm like, all right, what are you setting up for?
- 17:24And I maybe just craving, But after a bit you
- 17:27get that kicked dog syndrome where you're you're flinching just
- 17:33because they're there and they're still this is still alive
- 17:41in the rally outside of the Knesset, and be careful.
- 17:48A crowd like that Hamas may ParaSail in and start
- 17:51killing people again. I'm sorry, I just I see a
- 17:54crowd of Israeli celebrating and listening to music, and it's
- 18:00a target rich environment for people that hate the idea
- 18:03that somebody thinks something differently of them. On that do
- 18:07we have the clip of the President talking about cutter,
- 18:11by the way, amongst the things going on this weekend,
- 18:16the attention seeking and understandably, President Trump is a gravitational
- 18:23field of publicity and unfortunately people in my industry and
- 18:31people associated into my industry, we're in the attention getting business.
- 18:39We are historically the tree falling in the woods with
- 18:44nobody there to hear it. And if we do not
- 18:47attract attention to ourselves. Most of us, I believe do
- 18:53it through good works and efforts and trying to be
- 18:56there to serve you and give you the things you
- 18:59need to know. Some people it's just about a publicity stunt,
- 19:03whether it's Howard Stern's summer long is he or isn't
- 19:06he fired by the serious exam or you know? These
- 19:11are just publicity stunts. And the latest one is Laura
- 19:15Lumer mischaracterizing training Katari pilots in Idaho as allowing Islam
- 19:24mist base in Idaho. And the President I think over
- 19:30in the flight made a clear crackback block on Laura
- 19:39Lumer's statements is do you have that clip of the
- 19:45president while we're waiting for the President to address the
- 19:50Israeli kanesseen in Israel? This was him.
- 19:54Speaker 2: Kaitar was a tremendous help to getting this done.
- 19:58Speaker 7: You realize that, I don't think people realize that their leader,
- 20:05the Amir, is very, very brave. So we are apparently
- 20:13for several years now training Katari pilots to fly F
- 20:17fifteens out of Idaho. They've kicked in money to expand
- 20:22living quarters in Idaho for their pilots while they're there
- 20:29being taught how to fly F fifteens. Guess what that means.
- 20:32We don't have to have American pilots flying F fifteens
- 20:36out of Cutter Cutter the home of one of America's
- 20:41biggest bases in the area. So here we are acting
- 20:45like the same Jihadis who have not Saddam Hussein Osama
- 20:54bin Laden bent out of shape because his dad's construction
- 20:58company helped build an air force during Gulf I that
- 21:04had Israeli pilots flying out of Egypt. My god, this
- 21:12kind of stuff, and it's it's purely an attention grab.
- 21:19It's purely out there to try to get me to
- 21:24talk about them. But the President, I thought, took a
- 21:27great point. He's a cutter, has been a great ally
- 21:32towards making this happen Egypt, these countries, this kind of stuff.
- 21:36Hamas doesn't agree to do this if it isn't for
- 21:40all the other countries feeling emboldened enough to tell Iran,
- 21:44and that's who really this message is for Iran to
- 21:48go jump in the Gulf and try to swim through
- 21:53the canal. But again we're waiting. We'll give you some
- 21:59live I'm the president when.

- 28:14Speaker 3: From Joe Thomas, It's first thing today.
- 28:17Speaker 7: This help.
- 28:18Speaker 2: Qatar was a tremendous help to getting this done.
- 28:21Speaker 18: I hope people can realize that.
- 28:23Speaker 2: And it was it's very it was very tough and
- 28:26very dangerous and leader the Emir was very very brave
- 28:30and Quitar should start getting some credit.
- 28:35Speaker 7: And that you know when he said that to the
- 28:37reporters again in one of those brilliant and I love
- 28:40those meetings in Air Force one in the hallway. This
- 28:45one looked a little bit more like it was actually
- 28:48in the hallway, not coming out of the men's room
- 28:52on Air Force one. But I love those prescott If
- 28:55there's an image, it's like it's almost like the fireside chat,
- 29:00and it blows up this whole. Oh the press, because
- 29:04they can sit there and say what they want. He
- 29:06comes right to their face and says, what do you got?
- 29:18So let me get to you at four three four
- 29:20eight eight two four two one seven, because I want
- 29:24to make sure we have some time when the President
- 29:26begins his address to the Knesset to get you some
- 29:34of the audio of that. So, good morning, you're on
- 29:37first thing this morning. Who's this?
- 29:40Speaker 4: Good morning?
- 29:40Speaker 7: Joe's Joel? Hey Joel. How are you doing this morning? Sir?
- 29:44Speaker 4: I'm okay. I'm you know, still job searching and all that,
- 29:48but I'm okay.
- 29:49Speaker 7: Happy Columbus Day. Happy Columbus Day to you or disingenuous
- 29:54People's Day, however you want to look at it. That's
- 29:57what I call it. For those who must you know,
- 29:59it's funny about Columbus Day too. These are the same
- 30:02the people who are out there saying it's not Columbus
- 30:05Day because that's celebrating colonialism. Are the same people who
- 30:10will get into a march and say we're all immigrants
- 30:13in this country. I don't realize if they notice how
- 30:18hypocritical trying to hold both positions are. But yeah, maybe
- 30:23they're just so so smart they can hold the same
- 30:26position on opposite sides.
- 30:29Speaker 4: Yeah, it's hard to argue with people that don't want
- 30:31to debate and don't want to listen to It.
- 30:33Speaker 7: Almost sounds like they could debate with themselves because they
- 30:37seem to hold the same view from two different perspectives.
- 30:42Speaker 4: I guess that's where the words echo chamber came from.
- 30:47Speaker 7: That good point. So you know, this whole bit over
- 30:50and and and I don't mean to give her more
- 30:53run than she deserves, but this whole Laura Lumer thing
- 30:58you blew up over the weekend, grab all the headlines
- 31:00of the president got ready to fly to Israel. But
- 31:03this is what gives these leftist zelots ammunition to start
- 31:08talking about Christian nationalism. She's talking about the prey. I'm
- 31:13never voting. I'm not going to vote for anyone in
- 31:15twenty twenty six unless the president outlaws Islam, and it
- 31:20arrests everyone who's Islamist. And I'm just this is exactly
- 31:25what you know all these leftists talk about when they
- 31:29talk about Christian nationalism. And I was glad to hear
- 31:32the President subtly call her out on Air Force one
- 31:37flying to flying to Israel.
- 31:43Speaker 4: I agree. I wanted to bring this up. When you
- 31:46buy something or let's say, you know, let's say it's
- 31:50a car, you buy something at best Buy or something,
- 31:55either it comes with a warranty, you buy an extended warranty.
- 31:58Speaker 7: Right, Yeah, we.
- 32:00Speaker 4: Got we got to look at these nations coming together
- 32:06even though most of them hate Israel or or or
- 32:09have have had war with them. And and I think
- 32:14without anybody else, and there were a lot of other
- 32:17people that put this agreement together. I guess Steve Wittkoff
- 32:22and then uh, I can't.
- 32:25Speaker 7: Think Jared Jared Kushner is they were him the kind
- 32:28of modern Kissinger over this went.
- 32:31Speaker 4: Right, But so we got to look at the warranty.
- 32:35Is first of all, what we think most of most
- 32:40of those countries and their leaders are are in the
- 32:44exposure of themselves as far as being people that signed
- 32:48the agreement and then and then and then the warranty
- 32:52is is that exposure. And President Trump and the other
- 32:57people that are putting this together now now Israel doesn't
- 33:02seem like they got the good deal, even though they've
- 33:05they're getting you know, their loved ones and hostages and
- 33:08friends and family and whoever was affected, I mean the
- 33:12whole country and and us too. That that when President
- 33:17Trump put this together, he had he realized all those
- 33:21things that they were warring nations that they don't really
- 33:24like Israel. There's territorial, there's religious, there's all kinds of hate.
- 33:29But how else do you do this? You know, it's
- 33:31not just caveat empter. It's not just buyer beware. It's
- 33:35it's it's putting that together in the spotlight, because as
- 33:40we know, Israel put that the Palestinian area, as they claim,
- 33:45into the seventh century, and the behaviors of a lot
- 33:49of the Islamists and and and partially I would say
- 33:55the Muslim belief is that that they're more into and
- 34:00to death worth worse instead of life. And he's bringing
- 34:05forth that we have to live together and the only
- 34:09guarantee is cooperation.
- 34:11Speaker 7: Well, here's here's the thing. And of course, you have
- 34:13to remember the last time something profound like this, you know,
- 34:16this kind of peace thing, was the Accords. Jimmy Carter
- 34:21and Monoch and Megan and on Mar Sadad God Sadad
- 34:25assassinated over it by the Islamists within Egypt. That yeah,
- 34:34what Trump and Kushner and all these people in Witkoff
- 34:37did is what they did with the Abraham Accords. They
- 34:41sat down and instead of pretending, because they're scholarly, we
- 34:45understand that you hate them and they hate you, they
- 34:48came in with this refreshing attitude from what I was
- 34:51reading about it, and they said, listen, regardless of that,
- 34:56here's what you have, here's what they have, here's what
- 35:00they can do. Here's what you can do. Why do
- 35:03you hate each other? And and you know, and that
- 35:06aqua velva moment of well, we're not really sure, you know,
- 35:12the technology, the the you know, I think one of
- 35:16the parts of the deal was talking about how Israel
- 35:18has technology that could make the oil generation out of
- 35:23some of these oil rich countries even better, but they
- 35:27won't use it because Israel invented it. And they're like,
- 35:30why are you being so dumb? And and maybe it
- 35:33takes somebody like Trump the bull in the China shop metaphorically,
- 35:37to come in and and stop with the whole profess Oriel,
- 35:42we understand you hate them, yet they hate you, and
- 35:44that will never change, and come in and just say, Okay,
- 35:48enough of this. It's just you're you're making both countries worse.
- 35:53Let's make Israel great again, Let's make Gaza great again.
- 35:57Let's make uh, you know, Jordan's great again, and and
- 36:01let's make you know, all of these countries as great
- 36:03as they can be through commerce, not just a peace
- 36:07deal that says we promise until Trump's out of office
- 36:10to stop shooting at each other.
- 36:13Speaker 4: And the other thing, Joe too, I'm going to add
- 36:14to what you're saying to those parallels is that I
- 36:18watched I normally don't watch it, but I watched CNN
- 36:20yesterday and they had an interview, a phone interview while
- 36:23President Trump was flying to Israel, and and they were
- 36:28the only ones that had a live interview with them,
- 36:30and they showed a lot more exposure like live you know,
- 36:34movements in Israel and guys and all those areas, while
- 36:38the other networks that I usually watch weren't doing that.
- 36:42And I think what's what's happening is they're they're he's
- 36:46he's at least trying to bring reality to those organizations
- 36:50which a lot of the world watches those over what
- 36:54we watch, you know, like news Max or Fox. So
- 36:57I think it's going to bring some reality and truth
- 36:59to those news organizations, which we need.
- 37:02Speaker 7: What heresy talking about reality and truth in a newsroom, Joel, Oh,
- 37:08You're not going to get along well here at all,
- 37:11but I appreciate it, my friend. God bless you, sir.
- 37:13You have a great morning. And like I said, if
- 37:17you want, we're going to try. They're just all milling
- 37:19around in the Israeli Kanessa right now waiting for President
- 37:23Trump and I guess Prime Minister in net and Yahoo
- 37:25to get there, uh, to address the group, But I
- 37:29appreciate it. Hey, guys, can somebody get an American flag
- 37:33up there somewhere? Doesn't have to be up at top,
- 37:35you know, I don't know. I'm looking at the Dais
- 37:37and there's no American flags there. But maybe I'm just
- 37:41I don't know what their protocols are. But you have
- 37:43a great morning, sir, you too, Thank you. Joe. There's
- 37:47text message from Terry laugh out loud in disingenuous People's Day.
- 37:54That's what we want to call this holiday from here
- 37:56on out. Yeah, well, that's what I've called it for
- 37:58many years.
- 38:01Speaker 12: According to a new report from Discovery Education, ninety two
- 38:04percent of students say that engaging lessons make school more fun,
- 38:08and more than ninety percent of educators said engagement is
- 38:11critical for student achievement. Student engagement is essential for learning,
- 38:15but gaps remain about how to achieve, measure and sustain
- 38:18student's interest in the classroom. Although sixty three percent of
- 38:22students agreed that students are highly engaged in school, only
- 38:26forty five percent of teachers and fifty one percent of
- 38:28principles surveyed agreed with the same statement. Educators disagreed on
- 38:33the top indicators of engagement. Seventy two percent of teachers
- 38:37said asking thoughtful questions was the strongest indicator of student engagement,
- 38:41while fifty four percent of superintendents rate performing well on
- 38:44assessments as a top engagement indicator. Also, two thirds of
- 38:48students said they believed that AI could help them learn faster,
- 38:52yet fewer than half of teachers report using AI themselves

- 44:23Speaker 20: There should never be media man in lackardness.
- 44:26Speaker 22: We finally have her saying that.
- 44:28Speaker 3: The first thing today by Joe Thomas on the Tunk
- 44:31Media Network.
- 44:42Speaker 7: So that was from last week's Virginia gubernatorial debate. There
- 44:47was also hot fireworks in New Jersey. Governor's debate and
- 44:54polls since both indicate that well, I you know, some
- 45:00of it goes back and it depends on who's doing
- 45:06the poll. But the latest poll out of New Jersey
- 45:11from Rasmussen shows mikey Cheryl at forty six percent lead
- 45:17over Jack Chatterrelli's forty percent. That's since the debate. Zogby
- 45:26has Cheryl at fifty and Chatterrelly at forty two. However,
- 45:35Valcore has Cheryl only up by two points, forty seven
- 45:38to forty five. The Trifalger Group, another one of these
- 45:42you know, heritage polling organizations in Virginia, has they lead
- 45:49now down to two percent, which is the mar Three
- 45:52percent is the margin of error in the polling in
- 45:56this particular size ball. It goes. It varies. It can
- 45:59be as low is two. If you have a lot
- 46:01of people contributing to a pole, the margin of error
- 46:06goes down. That's how it works. So when you hear
- 46:10that a poll has a five percent margin of error,
- 46:13they asked, like twenty people at the shopping mall what
- 46:16they think. I mean, this is akin to somebody taking
- 46:19a poll on their ex account. But if you see
- 46:22a margin of error like two or three. That's kind
- 46:25of commonplace. This one margin of error is three in
- 46:28the Trifalger group and the spread is two point five.
- 46:32So what they call in polling statistically tied now between
- 46:39Sears and span Berger. Also was a huge donation both
- 46:46from the Republican Governors Association actually weighed in and threw
- 46:52in one point five million dollars as much as a vote.
- 46:56And somebody asked me over the weekend, well, what you know,
- 47:00what do you think is going to happen? I said, well,
- 47:02two things are going to happen. The base is going
- 47:05to get motivated because they haven't been. And that's again
- 47:10the business model of this program is, I'll say the
- 47:12quiet part out loud enough. People have told me that
- 47:17this isn't the ticket they wanted. They wanted Jason Miaris,
- 47:21the Attorney General, to run for governor, and there was
- 47:23some rumblings about that. He never he never once said
- 47:27he was. Apparently there was some discussions and the settlement
- 47:31was that he would run in four years and that
- 47:36Sears and we've seen this before. Bill Bowling years ago
- 47:40was told he would be able to run in twenty
- 47:43thirteen if he allowed the Attorney General Bob McDonald to run.
- 47:47McDonald won, and then in twenty thirteen, Ken Coochinelli, who
- 47:51was the Attorney General, said well, I'm going to run too,
- 47:54and Bill Bowling, I don't know why, because the party
- 47:57told him it was his turn, got into a snit
- 48:01and and began a schism, started a whole group main
- 48:05Street Republicans and really torpedo cooch and Ellie's chance to
- 48:10be governor because that's how many people stayed home. And
- 48:15the same thing was happening in Virginia's There were a
- 48:17lot of people staying home because this wasn't their perfect ticket.
- 48:21This wasn't if you had asked, you know, the fantasy
- 48:25Fantasy Politics League who they wanted as their starting lineup,
- 48:29and it would have been, you know, Jason MIAs, you know,
- 48:33pick a Republican senator, you know, maybe maybe Bryce Reeves
- 48:39or someone for lieutenant governor. And then you know, somebody
- 48:43like a Rob Bell or a Robert Tracy for attorney general,
- 48:46somebody up and coming. And that's not how it worked out.
- 48:50The lieutenant governor wins some sears announced that she was running,
- 48:55and Jason Miara said he'd run for and then you
- 48:58had this race for it lieutenant governor with nobody in it.
- 49:04He had one guy from Fairfax County who had health issues,
- 49:08and after a massive coronary bound out, you wound up
- 49:10with my buddy John Reid, who's terrific. I think, you know,
- 49:15he embarrasses me sometimes for his conservatism, and you know,
- 49:24but he's a gay man, and they're appeal I can't
- 49:28just can't vote for him. So what Sears had to
- 49:31do last week in the Republican debate was fire up
- 49:34the base. And it's the same thing Mikey Cheryl did
- 49:38by making baseless claims. Now in Sears' case, her claims
- 49:42were bonafide, and you could see it in Spanberger's reactions.
- 49:49She was tense, frustrated. She was fighting the urge to
- 49:53shout back at Sears and get into a yelling match,
- 50:00because she knew that if she made a mistake like
- 50:02Terry mccauliffe did, it was game over. Well, it's a
- 50:05per is to be game over anyway, because now the
- 50:09Republican base in Virginia is fared up, and in New
- 50:14Jersey not so much, because a lot of them heard
- 50:17her make these statements about opioids, and because we have
- 50:20this zero sum game about opioids, and we don't have
- 50:25a logic base to go to. It's either all or nothing.
- 50:28Either you're with me or you're agin me. She picked
- 50:32the right subject, she said, opioids. Of all the things
- 50:36Galen Publishing has ever published, she found opioids. And just
- 50:41like in Pennsylvania, doctor Oz's original sin was that he
- 50:47owned a house in New Jersey. I mean, he could
- 50:49have owned a house in Florida and nobody would have cared.
- 50:52But he owns a house in New Jersey. Oh, we
- 50:54can't vote for him. And John Fetterman's campaign knew how
- 50:58to play that, knew that Pennsylvanians wouldn't vote for doctor
- 51:03Oz if they thought he lived half the time in
- 51:05New Jersey. That's just an unforgivable sin in Pennsylvania and
- 51:11in New Jersey, you know, they've they've so long had
- 51:17this one or zero. It's a binary. It's either you're
- 51:20on or off. And she picked the right time because
- 51:23apparently a lot of people we had that race was
- 51:26a flat foot tie, and a lot of people abandoned Chattarelli.
- 51:30By the way, Trefalger also says the Lieutenant governor's race
- 51:36is even closer, and after the whole dust up over
- 51:42j Jones, Jason Yaris is actually leading in that poll
- 51:48by several percentage points over j Jones, even though the
- 51:51Democrats insist that he's our hero talking about shooting. Republicans
- 51:57will vote for him? Can we vote for him twice?
- 51:59We areocrats? I'm sorry was that. I didn't mean to
- 52:04be mean spirited about that. But yeah, the race with
- 52:08Jason Mires, he's actually heady by five points. He's outside
- 52:14the margin of error. So how do these debates have
- 52:17an impact? Should there be a mandatory number of debates
- 52:23for any office? And how would you work that constitutionally?
- 52:27How do you mandate that somebody do this? Because these
- 52:30are usually run by broadcast or news organizations and they
- 52:35have to be agreed to by the campaigns. And you
- 52:38see the peril in it, but it's even to me,
- 52:41it's even more perilous if you only have one debate
- 52:44and one poker player pushes all their chips into the
- 52:49table and decides to make it all about that.
