  Speaker 3: scholarship with the name Joe Thomas on it. It'd be
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: my dad.
• 1:01
  Speaker 10: Ah.
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: But I engineer what we do every morning for you
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: at four three four eight A two four to two
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: one seven. Sure it's not exactly like getting a degree
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: from an Ivy League college and Upstate New York, but
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: it's my story and I'm sticking to it. Here at
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: your service, where we tell you the news, we will
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: tell you what happened and our analysis of it, and
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: then want to find out how it's impacting you where
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: you are at four three, four eight eight two four
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: to two one seven. Phone calls certainly there, but text
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: messages as well. Here from the biggest civil rights march
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: in the mid Atlantic, certainly going on today in honor
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: of Martin Luther King Junior. It's being held by our
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: own local flagship state, Virginia Citizens Defense League, along with
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: the Gun Owners of America and the National Rifle Association.
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: Joining us for the first time in a long time.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: Huh changed there as you stand up for the essential
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: right to defend yourself against tyranny with your right to
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: keep in bare arms. A reminder that the one word
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: that does not appear anywhere in the Second Amendment is
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: the word gun. This text message comes in your friend
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: is always warning me about keeping valume nearby Joe. Forty
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: years ago, in Central Virginia, it was okay for students
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: to have a high school at my high school, to
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: have a firearm in their vehicle. Students hunted before driving
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: to school or after. Today's students are suspended from school
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: if they have a spent shotgun shell in the bed
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: of their pickup truck. Makes you wonder how much things
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: have changed in our lifetime and why so many freedoms
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: have been lost. Well, it's because when somebody does something
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: bad and understand the concept of this country is very
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: difficult because it has to at first accept the premise
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: that there are going to be bad people who do
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: bad things to other people and it's just the way
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: it is. And when that happens, what winds up happening
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: too much in the twentieth century was people would come
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: along and say, I will fix this so this never
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: happens again. And that number one is a fool's errand
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: because it does happen again, but it also takes away
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: some of your rights and liberties. Our first things this
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: morning brought to you by jcsgold dot com. Hackers disrupted
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: Iranian state television satellite transmissions to air footage of a
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: speech given in Virginia on Friday by Reza Palavi, the
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: deposed ground Prince of Iran, where he said to security
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: forces not to point your weapons at the people. The
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: disruption like a scene from the movie Running Man, hacking
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: the TV station as the death toll conservatively is just
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: shy of four thousand people killed by the Iranian government,
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: but fear is that number is closer to fifteen thousand.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: US Department of Justice says it's investigating a group of
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: protesters in Minnesota who disrupted services at a church where
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: the pastor serves as a local official with Immigration and
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: Customs enforcement. The intrusion was live streamed on the Facebook
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: page of Black Lives Matter Minnesota. The Pentagon has also
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: ordered fifteen hundred active duty soldiers in Alaska to prepare
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: for deployment to Minnesota in spite of the to keep
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: a handle on the large scale protests. British Prime Minister
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: Keir Starmer said this morning that US President Trump's threats
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: of tariffs against allies over Greenland is completely wrong. The
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Supreme Court is weighing a landmark decision on the President's
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: authority to impose the tariffs in general to rebalance global trade.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: Treasury Secretary Scott Besson said on TV Sunday morning, quote,
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: I believe that it is very unlikely that the Supreme
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: Court will overrule the president's signature economic policy. They did
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: not overrule Obamacare. I believe the Supreme Court does not
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: want to create chaos. Senator Ran paul A Sunday pushed
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: back against President Trump's position on enacting tariffs to force
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: the sale of Greenland to the US as he stated it,
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: along with Virginia Senator Tim Kaine, who co sponsored legislation
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: to stop the President from using the administration's power to
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: take Greenland by force, which is only something that a
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: reporter brought up to the President would be stopped by
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: this if it ever did not happen. Those are your
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: first things. This Martin Luther King Day morning. Thank you

  Speaker 9: Away.
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: Thank you for joining us. This Monday is Monday Morning.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: It's Martin Luther King junior day uh And, as he
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: said so eloquently years ago, all we ask is that
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: you live up to what you wrote down on paper.
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: That's all we're asking America's government even to this day.
• 13:48
  Speaker 21: I lived in China. Are you going to rush on
• 13:52
  Speaker 21: in a totalitarian country? Maybe I could understand some of
• 14:00
  Speaker 21: these illegal injunctions made. I could understand the denial of
• 14:05
  Speaker 21: sudden basic FRESHT Amendment privileges because they haven't committed themselves
• 14:11
  Speaker 21: to that. Over that, but somewhere read are the freedom
• 14:17
  Speaker 21: of assembly. Somewhere read are the freedom of speech? Somewhere
• 14:22
  Speaker 21: are red?
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: Are the freedom of press?
• 14:26
  Speaker 21: Somewhere are red that the greatness of America is the
• 14:31
  Speaker 21: right to protest far right?
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: And he was dead less than twelve hours later. Martin
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: Luther King Junior, As we celebrate his life today, and
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: we have a civil rights rally going on here in
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: the capital of Virginia, hosted by the Virginia Citizens Defense
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: League and the Gun Owners of America and for the
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: first time, the National Rifle Association standing up for the rights.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: And we see this on display in Venezuela. After the
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: fall of Nicholas Meduro his collection agents. I'm sorry the
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: Interior secretary went out with bands of heavily armed militia
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: men because nobody in Venezuela is allowed to have guns,
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: and started breaking into people's houses, kicking indoors. No warrants,
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: no Fourth Amendment protection, there, no Second Amendment protection there.
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: So these collectivos were going around looking for Americans, no warrants,
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: no inclination that that might be where they are just
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: kicking indoors because there's no Second Amendment in Venezuela. Just
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: remember that when you think about civil rights and how
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: the Constitution was constructed, Now would it be better like
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: Virginia's constitution. Our Bill of Rights is not an addendum.
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: It's the first part of Virginia's institution. The first article
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: is our bill of rights, and most of them copy.
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: I think our version of the Second Amendment is like
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: the twelfth or thirteenth, and it's a little wordier and
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: more open to interpretation by some people's view than the
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: US Constitution's Second Amendment. But your right to keep in
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: bare arms is unquestionable. And as we come here brought

• 19:07
  Speaker 2: from US.
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: Oh so you're further down the coast. Okay, so yeah,
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: it looked like it was the Panhandle, Tallahassee and all that.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: AnyWho, Yeah, more Princiicola. But anyway, so I want to
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: get all this stuff out. I know you're going to
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: jump on it right away, but so are We're going
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: to add a lot of knives and snowshovels too, I mean,
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: you know, or make people get licenses for that. People
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: were attacked with knives and snowshovels in Minnesota. But we
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: have to realize the Democrats are crafty. Now there's only
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: one Democrat that I think has somewhat kind of senses,
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: John Fetterman. But the rest I think are all looney.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: And you have to do comparison with the Democrats in
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: Islam because they have one purpose. They want you to submit,
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: They want you to conform to what they want to do.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: It's like President Reagan said, and you know, uh when
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: he said, where the government we're here to help? You know,
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: they're not because they didn't protect America. All these all
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: these illegal aliens are in our country. And and if
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: we didn't have people didn't have guns, you know, the
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: right to own a weapon as far as to protect themselves.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: With the Second Amendment, we'd even be in worse shape.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: But these people are trying to take away the Second Amendment,
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: you know, eliminated our rights, like you said, and I
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: guess in Virginia now you have to apply for a license.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: But during the time, they.
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: Haven't passed that yet.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: That's just proposed, right, But I mean just they're thinking, yeah,
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: and but it's.
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: Just they keep trying to find they keep trying to
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: find legal ish ways around what is clearly an issue.
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: When New York banned the carrying of firearms, but you
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: could only use them in a in a training scenario,
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: but you couldn't take them from your to the training scenario.
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: And the Supreme Court said, stop that. That's just ridiculous.
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: That's a Brewin decision. Every time the Supreme Court smacks
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: down one of these illegal usurpations, they come up with
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: creative new ways. Oh, it's a magazine ban, it's a
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: you know, if you truly felt that these things were
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: so dangerous, then one bullet should be you know, insufficient.
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: You should have a ban on bullets and some of
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: the places are enacting taxes on bullets. California has got
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: a tax on bullets on a SODA's Oregon, and I
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: think Minnesota. That's like Minnesota doesn't have enough problems already,
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: but there are a lot of states that have enact
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: excise taxes on ammunition. So since they feel like, oh well,
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: that doesn't fall under the Second Amendment, I would love
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: to see a Supreme Court ruling on whither a bullet
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: is part of the arm in general, because a gun
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: is not an arm until it's loaded.
• 22:00
  Speaker 22: Andy Brandt and her name is Shary I love. She's
• 22:04
  Speaker 22: a friend of mine whom we were just praying for
• 22:07
  Speaker 22: because of a surgery. She just went through.
• 22:09
  Speaker 23: Yes, and I am very happy about something you actually
• 22:11
  Speaker 23: talk about all the time, which.
• 22:13
  Speaker 22: Is meda share.
• 22:14
  Speaker 23: That is right.
• 22:14
  Speaker 22: Yeah, So what was your experience like with meta share
• 22:17
  Speaker 22: and healthcare ability?
• 22:18
  Speaker 23: Honestly, Brandt seamless and what a blessing that is when
• 22:21
  Speaker 23: you're already nervous about a health issue, which I was.
• 22:24
  Speaker 23: Members shared my expenses. There were zero problems. And let
• 22:27
  Speaker 23: me tell you, having people pray with you when you
• 22:30
  Speaker 23: call in with your need, that.
• 22:32
  Speaker 22: Is just refreshing.
• 22:34
  Speaker 23: Yes, that's what it is.
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: What I keep telling people.
• 22:36
  Speaker 22: People love meda share and they love saving money. The
• 22:39
  Speaker 22: typical family can save five hundred dollars a month.
• 22:42
  Speaker 23: I am very thankful for Meta Share. It is so different,
• 22:46
  Speaker 23: and I mean different in a very very good way.
• 22:48
  Speaker 22: It is good different Call now. They're easy to talk

  Speaker 25: veterinary teams in exciting ways. We're using AI to develop
• 23:25
  Speaker 25: personalized cancer treatments, predict chronic conditions like feline kidney disease,
• 23:30
  Speaker 25: and even streamline record keeping so veterinarians can focus more
• 23:34
  Speaker 25: on patients. But, as with any new technology, always keep
• 23:40
  Speaker 25: a human in the loop to maintain the best pet healthcare.
• 23:44
  Speaker 25: AI is a powerful tool, but not a replacement for
• 23:48
  Speaker 25: your veterinarians expertise compassion and judgment, which remains at the
• 23:53

  Speaker 3: Saying on paper.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: Amaze your friends. Here in the first Thing Today by
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: Joe Thomas.
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: Damn dog, We're all afraid to speak the truth. And
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: the more afraid we get, the more we hate the
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: ones who do. You're ashamed to be American. Okay, that's cool,
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: because honestly we are all ashamed of you.
• 28:32
  Speaker 21: Two.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they're so.
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: The forecast Center there be so. And in one of
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: the things, and again, snowflake is because of how quickly
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: somebody melts when the heat comes on uh. And our
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: politicians are the king Lord high mugwamps of the snowflake hood.
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: It's why democracy was only supposed to be one part
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: of how our country was supposed to run correct four
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: three four eight eight four two one seven. Democracy was
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: but one tool. The constitution was supposed to be the
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: essential tool. All things had to circle back to the Constitution.
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: And in your state, whether it be you know, Ohio
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: or Connecticut or Virginia, the US Constitution until it until
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: it got to the point where it had gone through
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: all of its necessary essential rights, and then the state
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: would then, provided it doesn't violate any of the US
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: constitutionally protected rights, had the right to govern their state
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: of their own volition. But we watched these legislations across
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: the country and that's why this is going to be
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: one of the biggest civil rights marches, and it has
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: been twenty twenty in the height of COVID, during the lockdowns,
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: when the government said, you know what, we can close
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: your business. And remember whether it was Minnesota or Arizona
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: or California, Oregon, Virginia, certainly we lived through it here.
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: They didn't use law. They didn't close your business by
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: sending in the state police. They sent in the Department
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: of Health, they sent in the Alcoholic Beverage Commission if
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: you had one of those. Even in New York they
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: were using the liquor Board to shut down gathering places.
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: And so in Virginia we held one of these rallies
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: just like this on Martin Luther gave you fifty thousand
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: people in the streets of central Virginia and the media,
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: and this is a sad thing. The media covered it
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: with pictures of men and women holding black rifles over
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: their head, all big, scary black rifles. So there are
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: elected officials now who see that saying, oh, I wish
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: they hadn't done that. Fifty thousand people gathered and said
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: not just no, but hell no. The gun grabbers, the
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: lobbyists against gun rights saw it and left. They're like, oh, yeah,
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: we can't compete with this. But what they did is
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: they got their minions in the press to make it
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: look like, oh, look at the crazies running around the
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: streets of Richmond with black rifles over there. Oh my gosh.
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: And Philip Van Cleeve was president then he's president now, Philip,
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: are you ready for a big turnout today like the
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: fifty thousand that showed up in twenty twenty.
• 31:39
  Speaker 24: Yeah, yeah, we absolutely hope that is going to be
• 31:42
  Speaker 24: the case. I certainly expected the thousands, and who knows
• 31:47
  Speaker 24: how big. You know, these things are very hard to
• 31:49
  Speaker 24: predict how at the end of the day it will
• 31:51
  Speaker 24: turn it out. But we're yes, that's exactly what we
• 31:56
  Speaker 24: mean to say. You know, we wanted. We want them
• 31:59
  Speaker 24: to understand it. The gun control is the third rail. Yeah,
• 32:02
  Speaker 24: you can dance throughout it, but if you touch it,
• 32:04
  Speaker 24: you're going to get jolted. And so you know, we'll
• 32:10
  Speaker 24: have elections for two years, so a lot of reckoning
• 32:13
  Speaker 24: can be done at that point if they don't back away.
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: So you know, part and parcel of Lobby Day is
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: members of the v C d L and associated we'll
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: go in and visit with hopefully the members of the
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: General Assembly. It's frequently staffers, hopefully a high ranking one
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: at least to plead their case. But there's also a
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: rally at eleven o'clock, correct, Phil.
• 32:39
  Speaker 24: That's right today at eleven there'd be a rally at
• 32:41
  Speaker 24: the Bell Talent And again we want a big turnout
• 32:45
  Speaker 24: for that. We want especially the media to see just
• 32:48
  Speaker 24: see a people out there. Yeah, we're handing out guns.
• 32:51
  Speaker 24: Says life stickness to everybody. So we've got all those
• 32:54
  Speaker 24: two to help flag people in the hall as you're
• 32:56
  Speaker 24: walking around. All the gun says life stickles. All send
• 32:59
  Speaker 24: a message and the more people stronger than us.
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: I know that you've honored me by asking me to
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: share five or so minutes of thoughts. Who else is
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: on the Speaker's days Phil for eleven o'clock today.
• 33:13
  Speaker 24: Well, we have the delegates there who put in four
• 33:17
  Speaker 24: bills for gun rights bills. We we have a representative
• 33:22
  Speaker 24: of the high up, representative of the n r A
• 33:24
  Speaker 24: and Gun Owners of America. This is the first time
• 33:27
  Speaker 24: the n RA has directly participated in one of d
• 33:30
  Speaker 24: C d l's events, and they've been promoting him, so
• 33:36
  Speaker 24: you know we we of course I'm speaking Pat web
• 33:39
  Speaker 24: our treasure will be speaking if you go to our website,
• 33:44
  Speaker 24: and the key thing is seeing all that and more
• 33:47
  Speaker 24: and learn about carpooling buses and all that.
• 33:50
  Speaker 29: All the buses are now cut off. We had to
• 33:53
  Speaker 29: seal that off last night the vc dot org slash lobby.
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: Day and find out more about that. I want to
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: pivot to the amendment that ramroded its way through at
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: breakneck pace and along party lines, the redistricting Amendment, because
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: you know the makeup of Congress is going to mean
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: a lot of things. Obviously, they all want to get
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: the Democrat majority to impeach President Trump, but then they
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: start legislating with stuff like that, and we've seen their
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: attitude towards the Second Amendment and gun owners in America anyway,
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: are your members ready to turn out in I'm told
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: sometime in April when they'll hold this special election because
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: the commission that they're trying to undo past sixty five
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: thirty five, you know, just a few years ago. Can
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: we get everyone back out to stop this before it
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: goes any further?
• 34:56
  Speaker 24: I certainly hope, so, I really do, And we will
• 35:01
  Speaker 24: be promoting getting everybody to vote on this and vote
• 35:04
  Speaker 24: it down as we get closer to that date. But yeah,
• 35:08
  Speaker 24: absolutely sadly that the Democrat Party has truly lost its
• 35:13
  Speaker 24: way constitutionally. It's not honoring the constitution and the ultimate
• 35:21
  Speaker 24: goal of gun control. And again I always say this,
• 35:23
  Speaker 24: I want to be clear to everybody that may be
• 35:25
  Speaker 24: new to this issue. Gun control ultimately isn't about crime
• 35:28
  Speaker 24: at all. So it was about crime, they wouldn't be
• 35:31
  Speaker 24: releasing Christmas from jail early, and they wouldn't be getting
• 35:36
  Speaker 24: rid of bail and all that that drives up crime.
• 35:38
  Speaker 24: Any five year old knows that that drives crime up.
• 35:42
  Speaker 24: So it's not about crime. But that's the excuse for
• 35:45
  Speaker 24: gun control. The end the end game is civilian disirnment.
• 35:49
  Speaker 24: They don't want and they want us to be helpless
• 35:51
  Speaker 24: as citizens, just like they are in England and just
• 35:54
  Speaker 24: like they are and most of the world. That's what
• 35:56
  Speaker 24: they want for us. They want us to join the
• 35:58
  Speaker 24: world of socialism. And the only way they can have
• 36:01
  Speaker 24: a socialist, decommunist government is that the PA that's the goal.
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: And we watched Hugo Shaves do that in Venezuela, and
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: now we're watching these collectivos go around Venezuela kicking indoors,
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: looking for Americans or anyone who might have helped Nicholas
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: Maduro escape. Still my feeling is that this is there's
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: more to come on Maduro. Uh there. We've got to
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: stop him from saying anything about dominion voting machines. But Philip,
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: you know the reason I ask about redistricting is because
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: once if the Democrats have Hikeem Jeffries runs Congress, these
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: will become national impositions. I mean, all these things. We
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: were talking about bullet taxes and by the way, quick
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: note it received a text message on the idea of
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: bullet taxes a gun and I've talked to jurists about this.
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: A gun is not an armament until it's loaded in
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: the eyes of most courts. So the idea of taxing
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: a bullet is it hasn't really been challenged all the
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: way after the Supreme Court yet. But a lot of
• 37:13
  Speaker 3: these states that's how they're going at it now since
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: they can't go after the gun. And courts have been
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: ambiguous about what about the munitions. Some of them have
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: been clear, especially when it's magazine size and things like that.
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: But all the other rights, your Fourth Amendment right to privacy,
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: your Fifth Amendment right to own property, which as we
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: listen to the nut clusters in New York City and
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: Minneapolis is questioned there, you know, Jacob Frye, Hello, is
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: this thing you're in? Your First Amendment rights, as Martin
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: Luther King said so eloquently, are all defended by your
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: Second Amendment rights, and that cannot be forget, forgotten or for.
• 38:00
  Speaker 22: Sakan life can change so abruptly.
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: Just ask Paul.
• 38:05
  Speaker 22: He's a hard working entrepreneur, he's young, he's got a
• 38:08
  Speaker 22: young family. Suddenly, though, he develops a rare medical condition
• 38:11
  Speaker 22: where he lost the use of both of his arms.
• 38:14
  Speaker 16: I could no longer drive a car, couldn't use a
• 38:16
  Speaker 16: computer type, couldn't use a mouse. I could not hold
• 38:18
  Speaker 16: my son, who was about a month old.
• 38:20
  Speaker 22: Paul and his family were facing a mountain of medical bills,
• 38:23
  Speaker 22: but they're so thankful that they're members of metas Share.
• 38:27
  Speaker 16: I think if someone asked me, like, hey, does medicare
• 38:30
  Speaker 16: really work? I'm living proof that it works. My four
• 38:33
  Speaker 16: children are living proof that it works. My arms, which
• 38:36
  Speaker 16: have been healed, are living proof that Menashare works. Just
• 38:40
  Speaker 16: knowing the emotional peace of mind, knowing that our needs
• 38:42
  Speaker 16: are going to be taken care of when we have
• 38:44
  Speaker 16: some type of medical problem, that is such a huge
• 38:46
  Speaker 16: blessing to us.
• 38:47
  Speaker 22: It could be a huge blessing to you to people

  Speaker 8: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
• 39:13
  Speaker 8: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our

  Speaker 8: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
• 39:23
  Speaker 8: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
• 39:27
  Speaker 8: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
• 39:32
  Speaker 8: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 39:37
  Speaker 8: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
• 39:42
  Speaker 8: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
• 39:46
  Speaker 8: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

  Speaker 30: Hi, everybody, Jack Hannah and It's always a boy. Growing
• 41:01
  Speaker 30: up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
• 41:05
  Speaker 30: I'm not only in all of their beauty and kindness,
• 41:07
  Speaker 30: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
• 41:09
  Speaker 30: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
• 41:13
  Speaker 30: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
• 41:15
  Speaker 30: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
• 41:18
  Speaker 30: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
• 41:21
  Speaker 30: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
• 41:23
  Speaker 30: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
• 41:26
  Speaker 30: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
• 41:30
  Speaker 30: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
• 41:33
  Speaker 30: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
• 41:36
  Speaker 30: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
• 41:38
  Speaker 30: from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
• 41:42
  Speaker 30: a change.
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: In their blood chemistry.
• 41:43
  Speaker 30: Working dogs have a variety of highly trained roles that
• 41:46
  Speaker 30: contribute to society and help those in need. So please

  Speaker 26: Uh oh, Bruha's buzzed.
• 42:01
  Speaker 15: Oh yeah yeah, he's starting with the woots.
• 42:05
  Speaker 11: And now a speech.
• 42:07
  Speaker 4: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
• 42:11
  Speaker 4: art and brain.
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: Who's with me?
• 42:13
  Speaker 16: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and my
• 42:16
  Speaker 16: brain is saying when it's time to go home.
• 42:18
  Speaker 10: Somebody call me a ride.
• 42:20
  Speaker 26: Love that guy, me too.
• 42:21
  Speaker 5: Know your buzzed warning signs, call for a ride when
• 42:24
  Speaker 5: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.

• 44:12
  Speaker 1: Hundreds to do list. Putting the radio on is the
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: first thing today.
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: I'm telling you it's the most stunning view this morning
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: as the sun rises over the Eastern seaboard. I'm looking
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: out at an eastern facing window here at the Virginia
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: Capitol as we're here for Lobby Day. Brought to you
• 44:52
  Speaker 3: by Big Ridge Guns and Archery. Big Ridgeguns dot com
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: as we are here. I'm a hundred one of the
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: speakers at this year's Second Amendment rally, one of the
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: biggest civil rights rallies, and in honor of Martin Luther
• 45:07
  Speaker 3: King Day. And oh the emails I'm getting, who are
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: of people who are offended that I would conflate a
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: Second Amendment march to a civil rights march, proving to
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: me just how sadly gas lit we've become. But the
• 45:22
  Speaker 3: sunrise over the East Coast is stunning. I mean, it's
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: cold outside. I'm glad I'm inside for it, but I'm
• 45:28
  Speaker 3: looking out this windows and man, And if you follow
• 45:31
  Speaker 3: me on social media, you've seen a photograph taken within
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: the last five minutes of it on x or Facebook.
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: But Kareem wrote this in and I'm not sure where
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: you were getting your info, Kareem, but he said, Joe,
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: is now a good time to embrace the Democratic Socialists
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: of America and other left wing extremists who support the
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: Second Amendment. And I'm like, I don't recall the the
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: Democratic Socialists of America supporting the Second Amendment rights, but
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: I went and I checked, and this is from the
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: Democratic Socialist Party of America's own website. The Second Amendment
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: is a threat to us all. So I don't know
• 46:27
  Speaker 3: anyone who supports your right to keep in bare arms.
• 46:31
  Speaker 3: And again I will point out the one word that
• 46:35
  Speaker 3: doesn't appear anywhere in the Second Amendment is the word gun.
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: And like so many other things in especially the Bill
• 46:46
  Speaker 3: of Rights, it was written so carefully and so delicately
• 46:49
  Speaker 3: as to take into account new technology. Sometimes the use
• 46:56
  Speaker 3: of language changes over time. For example, in the First Amendment,
• 47:02
  Speaker 3: when it talks about the freedom of the press, with
• 47:06
  Speaker 3: apologies to people who work in my industry, that does
• 47:11
  Speaker 3: not In seventeen eighty nine, the word press did not
• 47:16
  Speaker 3: refer to the news media. It referred to the printing press.
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: And the reason they wrote it that way was to
• 47:26
  Speaker 3: keep it from being simply the printing press. And maybe
• 47:33
  Speaker 3: it would have been better if they wrote your right
• 47:36
  Speaker 3: to publish. Remember what was happening to the guys like
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: Thomas Paine. And the real kill shot to Britain's occupation
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: of the colonies in America was the Stamp Act, which,
• 47:52
  Speaker 3: like the taxes on firearm ammunition, was designed to stop
• 47:59
  Speaker 3: people from public Even though Magna Carta gave the British
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: government no authority to stop people from publishing. However, if
• 48:07
  Speaker 3: we put a huge excise tax on the paper that
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: you would publish on, then that'll stop you bastards from publishing.
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: This isn't new stuff. So while states are out there
• 48:24
  Speaker 3: trying to enact your bullet taxes to stop you bastards
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: from buying gun bullets, and using their property tax laws
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: to continue to apply excise taxes on gun ownership long
• 48:43
  Speaker 3: after the purchase of the legal consumer product has taken place,
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: or to require a right or a license to purchase it,
• 48:54
  Speaker 3: as they're discussing right here in Virginia's General Assembly. And
• 48:59
  Speaker 3: I used to up until Saturday, think hmm. Everyone in
• 49:03
  Speaker 3: the left wing media seems to view Abigail's Spanburger now
• 49:07
  Speaker 3: Governor Abigail span Burger as being a potential twenty twenty
• 49:12
  Speaker 3: eight candidate. Oh, she blew that one right out of
• 49:15
  Speaker 3: the water with her first executive order, which created Virginia's
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: sanctuary state laws. I know it doesn't use the word's sanctuary,
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: but she has now told Virginia's police to stop working
• 49:28
  Speaker 3: with ice. You know, walks like a duck, quacks like
• 49:35
  Speaker 3: a duck, swims like a duck, I'll call it a
• 49:37
  Speaker 3: duck if you won't. So I used to hold out
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: hope that these twenty twenty eight aspirations might keep her
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: from signing some of the crazy that disappeared by one
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: o'clock on Saturday, and maybe, just maybe that will convince
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: some of the legislators that are in closely held districts
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: fifty one, forty nine, could be forty nine, fifty one,
• 50:11
  Speaker 3: depending on the year, from sticking their vote in crazy.
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: But this is what they're doing. They're doubling down on
• 50:21
  Speaker 3: this Marxist you know, Hugo Chavez as confiscation of guns,
• 50:31
  Speaker 3: and then they want to redistricts so that then Congress
• 50:37
  Speaker 3: will be able to take you know, their their steps
• 50:40
  Speaker 3: towards it. So here in Virginia they want to create
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: these districts. And again nothing is axiomatic, So they want
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: to create districts here in Virginia, which like many states,
• 50:52
  Speaker 3: well not many states, but there's a few other states
• 50:54
  Speaker 3: in the Union that doesn't require party membership in your
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: voter registration. So you really don't know how many Republicans
• 51:04
  Speaker 3: and Democrats there are here in our flagship state. Some places,
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: you know, Okay, here's of course, when you're letting all
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: sorts of people who aren't on the voter rolls vote,
• 51:16
  Speaker 3: really the all beds are off Minnesota. But so the
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: guess is, you know that, oh, we're going to stretch
• 51:30
  Speaker 3: out these districts from Fredericksburg and the DC suburbs Fairfax,
• 51:35
  Speaker 3: and we're going to stretch it all the way down
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: towards Stanton and Harrisonburg. And then we're going to take
• 51:41
  Speaker 3: all these republic Democrat suburbs of Richmond, and we have
• 51:45
  Speaker 3: to stretch them east through Charlottesville. And we don't have
• 51:48
  Speaker 3: to go so far because now you got Charlottesville on
• 51:50
  Speaker 3: the other side of it, and that makes Richmond seem
• 51:52
  Speaker 3: conservative by comparison. And then you'll go out of Norfolk
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: and you'll stretch your districts all the way west until
• 51:59
  Speaker 3: you get to about the only place they can't stretch
• 52:02
  Speaker 3: a Democrat controlled district over the coal country of south
• 52:07
  Speaker 3: west Virginia. But here's their peril. They're taking districts that
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: were eighteen percent by history more Democrat than Republican, even
• 52:19
  Speaker 3: in the years where it's like a fifty five percent
• 52:22
  Speaker 3: voter turnout. So we don't know for sure that these
• 52:25
  Speaker 3: districts are. But once you get down to where you've
• 52:29
  Speaker 3: stretched it out far enough to where okay, we'll stop
• 52:31
  Speaker 3: at fifty two, maybe three fifty three percent more Democrats
• 52:36
  Speaker 3: by historical vote count, you run the great peril of
• 52:42
  Speaker 3: that other forty five percent of the voter roles turning
• 52:45
  Speaker 3: out and surprising you and winning a whole lot more seats.
• 52:49
  Speaker 3: That's my view.
• 52:51
  Speaker 9: A few years ago, my youngest son had something minor
• 52:55
  Speaker 9: turned into something very major in a matter of hours.
• 52:57
  Speaker 22: It was metiche that came through force. There's no hassles,
• 53:01
  Speaker 22: there was no problem.
• 53:02
  Speaker 9: That's what's so wonderful about knowing that you're a part
• 53:05
  Speaker 9: of such an incredible ministry.
• 53:07
  Speaker 18: Meta Share is a Biblical approach to healthcare where Christians
• 53:11
  Speaker 18: share each other's medical expenses.
• 53:13
  Speaker 5: Medishare is a family, a group of people that stick
• 53:17
  Speaker 5: with you through the hardest times of your life.
• 53:20
  Speaker 18: Metashare isn't insurance. It's a nonprofit ministry over thirty years old,
• 53:25
  Speaker 18: and members have shared over eight billion dollars of each
• 53:27
  Speaker 18: other's medical bills.
• 53:28
  Speaker 15: We don't have to spend so much on health insurance.
• 53:31
  Speaker 7: You can focus on on supporting other people.
• 53:33
  Speaker 4: Medashare is affordable.
• 53:35
  Speaker 8: Medishare is Biblical medas.
• 53:36
  Speaker 26: Share is family.
