  Speaker 6: National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation. So let me
• 0:46
  Speaker 6: get our first things into the pipeline so we know

  Speaker 6: what we're talking about in an abstract. Get to you
• 0:51
  Speaker 6: on the phones as well. Federal prosecutors are going to
• 0:57
  Speaker 6: try to seek the removal of James Comey's legal lead
• 1:01
  Speaker 6: defense attorney because Patrick Fitzgerald is implicated in the leaking
• 1:07
  Speaker 6: from the FBI that Comy is accused of. Yesterday, the
• 1:11
  Speaker 6: Department of Homeland Security issued a report on its first
• 1:15
  Speaker 6: nine months of the Trump administration January.
• 1:17
  Speaker 7: The Department of Homeland Security has arrested over four hundred
• 1:20
  Speaker 7: and eighty thousand criminal illegal aliens. Seventy percent of those
• 1:25
  Speaker 7: individuals have criminal charges against them or have been convicted
• 1:30
  Speaker 7: of those criminal charges.
• 1:32
  Speaker 6: That's DHS Secretary Christy Nome. And a deal that may
• 1:36
  Speaker 6: surprise some. The administration has agreed to a court supervised
• 1:40
  Speaker 6: plan that will speed up debt cancelation under income driven
• 1:45
  Speaker 6: repayment programs to protect borrowers for student loans from unexpected
• 1:51
  Speaker 6: tax bills. The administration cut the deal with the American
• 1:54
  Speaker 6: Federation of Teachers, the AFT said in the statement. The deal,
• 1:58
  Speaker 6: now awaiting court approval, requires the Education Department to follow
• 2:03
  Speaker 6: through on debt forgiveness for eligible buyers.
• 2:06
  Speaker 8: In twenty twenty five.
• 2:10
  Speaker 6: And the US Court of Appeals has allowed the President
• 2:13
  Speaker 6: to send the troops into Portland's.
• 2:17
  Speaker 8: Circuit.
• 2:17
  Speaker 6: Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled yesterday he can use
• 2:21
  Speaker 6: the National Guard in Portland. And those are our first things.
• 2:25
  Speaker 6: Mark mix on with us Mark, how do people find
• 2:28
  Speaker 6: you online?
• 2:29
  Speaker 8: There?
• 2:29
  Speaker 6: I want to talk a little bit more about the
• 2:31
  Speaker 6: abstract of right to work?
• 2:33
  Speaker 8: But how do they get you online?
• 2:36
  Speaker 9: Yeah?
• 2:36
  Speaker 10: If they want information about what's going on in the legislature,
• 2:39
  Speaker 10: that's the National Right to Work Committee NRTWC dot org.
• 2:42
  Speaker 10: If it's the Foundation. Questions about their legal russ in
• 2:45
  Speaker 10: the workplace, they can go to NRTW dot Org.
• 2:49
  Speaker 6: Mark makes President of the National Right to Work Legal
• 2:52
  Speaker 6: Defense Foundation, And we're talking about this and I did
• 2:56
  Speaker 6: it quick in my research department. Is woke them up
• 3:01
  Speaker 6: their mid morning siesta and I said, you know, give
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: me a list. And it's weird because the footprint of
• 3:06
  Speaker 6: this radio program, it's like we are the radio program
• 3:10
  Speaker 6: of right to work all across the country. It's we're
• 3:15
  Speaker 6: on in Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana. Also in Texas,
• 3:28
  Speaker 6: we got San Antonio there, Utah, great affiliates there as
• 3:32
  Speaker 6: well as Wyoming and so great places that And as
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: you said, it's just about not requiring you to join
• 3:41
  Speaker 6: a union. To work doesn't mean unions can't exist. And
• 3:45
  Speaker 6: that's I think one of the games they play is
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: they try to make it an anti union campaign when
• 3:51
  Speaker 6: it isn't that at all.
• 3:54
  Speaker 10: Yeah, that's right, Joe, And every one of those states
• 3:56
  Speaker 10: you named are right to work stage. So I didn't
• 3:58
  Speaker 10: realize we need to we need to do some.
• 3:59
  Speaker 9: More work with you, Joe.
• 4:01
  Speaker 10: You're everywhere that we want to be and everywhere we
• 4:03
  Speaker 10: are and protecting the right to work and individual freedom.
• 4:06
  Speaker 10: You know, it is a really interesting issue. Union officials
• 4:08
  Speaker 10: have a vested interest in making this case somehow against
• 4:11
  Speaker 10: working Americans, and really, Joe, this argument is between union
• 4:15
  Speaker 10: officials and the very workers they claim to want to represent,
• 4:18
  Speaker 10: because this has nothing to do with the employer. The
• 4:20
  Speaker 10: employer simply signs a contract that includes a provision that
• 4:24
  Speaker 10: says all workers in this place must pay union dues
• 4:27
  Speaker 10: or you have to fire them. That's called union security clause.
• 4:30
  Speaker 10: That clause can exist in states that have right to
• 4:33
  Speaker 10: work laws, it's illegal there, but in the states that don't,
• 4:36
  Speaker 10: that's literally the first thing that union's bargained for. And
• 4:38
  Speaker 10: so when they say it's anti union, what they really
• 4:40
  Speaker 10: mean is it's anti worker, because again, it's not a
• 4:43
  Speaker 10: fight between the employer.
• 4:45
  Speaker 9: And the worker.
• 4:46
  Speaker 10: It's a fight between the union and the worker as
• 4:48
  Speaker 10: to whether or not they will be forced to support
• 4:50
  Speaker 10: a union that they may not have ever voted for,
• 4:53
  Speaker 10: agreed with, or wanted. In fact, it's oftentimes the case
• 4:56
  Speaker 10: where the workers say, we don't like your political agenda.
• 4:58
  Speaker 10: You know, you've got the AFLCI Unite here, the s CiU,
• 5:02
  Speaker 10: the Virginia Teachers Association, the VA supporting this Jay Jones guy,
• 5:07
  Speaker 10: and just reiterating their endorsement for him after these statements
• 5:10
  Speaker 10: have come out about what he's talking about on text
• 5:14
  Speaker 10: and social media.
• 5:15
  Speaker 6: Well, and I think the biggest point of it is
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: is unions fail all the time there, especially in the
• 5:23
  Speaker 6: modern American world. This idea of unionizing completely disembowels the
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: idea of the individual's gifts and talents, which I think
• 5:33
  Speaker 6: the twenty first century American economy is specifically geared up
• 5:38
  Speaker 6: to reward people for their individual gifts and talents, which
• 5:42
  Speaker 6: unions don't mark.
• 5:45
  Speaker 10: Yeah, that's exactly right. I mean, the idea of a
• 5:47
  Speaker 10: union contract basically says, these are the conditions upon which
• 5:51
  Speaker 10: you will work, and whether you're the best worker the
• 5:53
  Speaker 10: worst worker in the medium worker doesn't matter. Basically, often
• 5:56
  Speaker 10: like teacher scou schedules. You know, we will see this
• 5:59
  Speaker 10: in virgin If Abigail Spanberger gets your way, all the
• 6:02
  Speaker 10: teachers in Virginia will will end up under union contracts.
• 6:05
  Speaker 10: And one of the ways you become a teacher and
• 6:08
  Speaker 10: way you get a pay raise you simply stay longer.
• 6:11
  Speaker 10: I mean that step scale is based on time, not talent.
• 6:14
  Speaker 10: And those are things that I think to your point,
• 6:16
  Speaker 10: Joe have have militated against people saying, yeah, I think
• 6:20
  Speaker 10: I want to do have individual choices about what I'm
• 6:23
  Speaker 10: doing at work and how I can be rewarded. And
• 6:25
  Speaker 10: meritocracy ought to be something that is considered when you
• 6:29
  Speaker 10: go to work for someone or you're trying to grow
• 6:31
  Speaker 10: your own career in some way, shape or form.
• 6:34
  Speaker 6: Well, and it's what we've seen time and time again,
• 6:37
  Speaker 6: and that's why the union movement is fading in the
• 6:40
  Speaker 6: private sector, especially Mark. Where do people find you online?
• 6:43
  Speaker 8: Again?
• 6:45
  Speaker 9: Yeah?
• 6:45
  Speaker 10: The National Rights to Work Committee NRTWC dot org and
• 6:49
  Speaker 10: the Legal Defense Foundation nrtw dot org.
• 6:52
  Speaker 8: And I'm going to send you a list of those affiliates.
• 6:57
  Speaker 11: Do that.
• 6:57
  Speaker 10: I'm looking forward to that. Congratulations to you.
• 7:02
  Speaker 12: A few years ago, my youngest son had something minor
• 7:05
  Speaker 12: turned into something very major in a matter of hours.
• 7:08
  Speaker 9: It was Medishare that came through for us and there
• 7:10
  Speaker 9: was no hassles, there was no problem.
• 7:12
  Speaker 12: That's what's so wonderful about knowing that you're a part
• 7:16
  Speaker 12: of such an incredible ministry.
• 7:18
  Speaker 13: Meta share is a biblical approach to healthcare where Christians
• 7:21
  Speaker 13: share each other's medical expenses.
• 7:23
  Speaker 14: Medishare is a family, a group of people that stick
• 7:28
  Speaker 14: with you through the hardest times of your life.
• 7:31
  Speaker 13: Metas Share isn't insurance. It's a nonprofit ministry over thirty
• 7:34
  Speaker 13: years old and members have shared over eight billion dollars
• 7:37
  Speaker 13: of each other's medical bills.
• 7:39
  Speaker 15: We don't have to spend so much on health insurance.
• 7:41
  Speaker 15: You can focus on on supporting other people.
• 7:43
  Speaker 8: Medashare is affordable.
• 7:45
  Speaker 13: Medishare is Biblical.
• 7:46
  Speaker 16: Medishare is family.
• 7:48
  Speaker 13: Join thousands of Christians who can help you save on

  Speaker 13: your healthcare and support your family when you need it.
• 7:54
  Speaker 13: Call eight five five Share forty eight five five share forty.
• 7:59
  Speaker 13: That's eight five five I share forty.
• 8:04
  Speaker 17: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
• 8:07
  Speaker 17: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
• 8:13
  Speaker 17: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
• 8:18
  Speaker 17: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
• 8:22
  Speaker 17: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
• 8:27
  Speaker 17: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
• 8:32
  Speaker 17: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 8:37
  Speaker 17: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
• 8:42
  Speaker 17: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer and
• 8:46
  Speaker 17: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
• 8:51
  Speaker 17: healthy cells even from radiation. Totalwellness dot com where we

  Speaker 19: Hiry body and it's always a boy. Growing up on
• 10:01
  Speaker 19: a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.

• 10:20
  Speaker 19: jump allows them to navigate the trees and the wild
• 10:23
  Speaker 19: in search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared
• 10:25
  Speaker 19: by our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are
• 10:29
  Speaker 19: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
• 10:32
  Speaker 19: they also perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep
• 10:35
  Speaker 19: us safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of
• 10:38
  Speaker 19: whom suffer from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them
• 10:41
  Speaker 19: when there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs

• 13:15
  Speaker 1: by Joe Thomas.
• 13:17
  Speaker 21: Doctor doctor didn't the news, I gotta.
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: Case loving you.
• 13:30
  Speaker 6: Doctor Clark is on the line of four three four
• 13:32
  Speaker 6: eight eight two four two one seven. Uh, don't let
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: me forget. I also want to talk a little bit
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: about our Trans Siberian Orchestra giveaways.
• 13:41
  Speaker 9: Uh.
• 13:42
  Speaker 6: In a moment, doctor Clark, you said you had a
• 13:44
  Speaker 6: point that we might be missing, and I always like
• 13:47
  Speaker 6: to hear where we might be missing something.
• 13:50
  Speaker 9: Yes, sir. On the Talent All Autism story, Joe, Uh huh,
• 13:55
  Speaker 9: I think we completely miss the point we did. We did. Okay,
• 14:02
  Speaker 9: Jeff immediately exploded, you can take all the talent all
• 14:06
  Speaker 9: you want, it won't hurt the baby. I'm going to
• 14:08
  Speaker 9: prove it by taking a whole bottle and damage my
• 14:10
  Speaker 9: livery well.
• 14:10
  Speaker 6: Yeah, we actually have corpses. I mean, we have corpses
• 14:14
  Speaker 6: from the internet from this. I mean I spend a
• 14:16
  Speaker 6: lot of time on It's a little grim but that,
• 14:18
  Speaker 6: you know, because there are a lot of people out
• 14:20
  Speaker 6: there on the Internet celebrating the death of some of
• 14:22
  Speaker 6: these people and and they're dead babies that happened because
• 14:27
  Speaker 6: they were guzzling down tail and alls.
• 14:30
  Speaker 9: Now let's look at the real story. Joe RFK Jr.
• 14:38
  Speaker 9: Made the announcement that there was a correlation between the
• 14:43
  Speaker 9: talent all and the autism rates, and he was citing
• 14:48
  Speaker 9: a Mount Sinai study on this. Now, what Mount Sinai
• 14:56
  Speaker 9: did was they did a statistical analysis of forty six
• 15:03
  Speaker 9: other studies on the link between kyl and all and autism.
• 15:09
  Speaker 9: Those go back for at least fifteen years. They didn't
• 15:14
  Speaker 9: actually do their own study, they studied the studies. They
• 15:17
  Speaker 9: look at methodology. Well, this is how they did this,
• 15:22
  Speaker 9: and this is solid. Okay, that one's good. This is
• 15:26
  Speaker 9: this is the method, say you yeah, this one's good too.
• 15:30
  Speaker 9: And they determined that all forty six of them were
• 15:32
  Speaker 9: pretty solid studies. And that was the Mount Sinai study.
• 15:38
  Speaker 9: So here's the story, Joe. For well over fifteen years,
• 15:45
  Speaker 9: forty six different groups had done studies and they had
• 15:51
  Speaker 9: determined that there was some kind of blink and you
• 15:56
  Speaker 9: and I never heard a word about it. Go ask
• 16:00
  Speaker 9: a recent mother. Did anybody tell you that there might
• 16:05
  Speaker 9: be a problem with tylanol? No? They told me that
• 16:10
  Speaker 9: was the only thing I could take if.
• 16:14
  Speaker 8: Yep.
• 16:15
  Speaker 9: So then we've got the ultrasound, the neonatal ultrasound potential link.
• 16:28
  Speaker 9: Ask a recent mother, I they ever gave you a
• 16:32
  Speaker 9: choice about having ultrasounds done? No, not really. They just
• 16:38
  Speaker 9: told me I was getting it done.
• 16:41
  Speaker 8: Yep.
• 16:41
  Speaker 6: No, it's you. You're absolutely right. And this is a
• 16:44
  Speaker 6: real quick, doctor Clark. I'm running out of time here.
• 16:48
  Speaker 9: That we could go for that long and nobody said
• 16:53
  Speaker 9: anything that we heard. They talk about the immigration systems broken.
• 17:00
  Speaker 9: What's broken is our media and our healthcare regulation.
• 17:07
  Speaker 6: Yeah, our information system, not our immigration system, although that's
• 17:10
  Speaker 6: part and parcel of it.
• 17:11
  Speaker 8: Thank you, sir. You have a great morning.
• 17:14
  Speaker 9: Take care of Joe.
• 17:16
  Speaker 6: So we gave away our first pairs of tickets to
• 17:19
  Speaker 6: our hook up with the Trans Siberian Orchestra. Our first
• 17:23
  Speaker 6: time in the history of my program, I've been able
• 17:25
  Speaker 6: to say, Hey, I've got more places than just my
• 17:28
  Speaker 6: hometown to hook up people to see this show that
• 17:32
  Speaker 6: is really my wife is we kick off our Christmas year.
• 17:36

• 19:06
  Speaker 6: I can't get you there, but I can give you
• 19:08
  Speaker 6: tickets to the show. I guess that's kind of the
• 19:11
  Speaker 6: case anywhere there. Bob in Moscow is on the phone
• 19:16
  Speaker 6: with us. He had a question about AI. Bob, do
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: I understand correctly?
• 19:22
  Speaker 22: Yes, artificial intelligence? Everyone's how good artificial intelligences?
• 19:29
  Speaker 6: Yes, well, yeah, there's a pr firms are definitely pushing it.
• 19:35
  Speaker 22: So, but my question to you is what does the
• 19:38
  Speaker 22: artificial mean machine?
• 19:41
  Speaker 6: It's it's it's using a machine to generate, you know,
• 19:44
  Speaker 6: behaviors that stimulate or simulate intelligence.
• 19:51
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 19:51
  Speaker 22: So, but if you look at the destinition of the
• 19:54
  Speaker 22: term of artificial, it means it's not reliable intelligence. So
• 19:59
  Speaker 22: it's as good as we program it. So are we
• 20:03
  Speaker 22: being programmed by the elites to believe a certain repertoire?
• 20:11
  Speaker 6: Well, and some of it, and I know some of
• 20:13
  Speaker 6: it works off of machine learning, like it observes the
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: people that use it and learns from them, and I
• 20:19
  Speaker 6: find that to be dangerously derivative. I don't know if
• 20:22
  Speaker 6: you share my view on that, because I I because
• 20:27
  Speaker 6: that's what I'm asking, Because I asked some dumb stuff
• 20:30
  Speaker 6: on the internet. Can you find me Jan Brady pictures
• 20:34
  Speaker 6: or whatever? They start to think, oh, Jan Brady's really
• 20:36
  Speaker 6: popular or whatever. Don't judge, but in any event, and
• 20:40
  Speaker 6: then you've got the other stuff that is programmed by people,
• 20:44
  Speaker 6: and it specifically only works within the parameters of the
• 20:49
  Speaker 6: people who program it. And I don't think there's a
• 20:53
  Speaker 6: good answer at this point. The thing that's troublesome to
• 20:56
  Speaker 6: me about AI is if you ask any of the
• 20:59
  Speaker 6: people in the industry, and we're going to broadcast this
• 21:02
  Speaker 6: show live from the Consumer Electronics Show in January, so
• 21:06
  Speaker 6: we're going to be up to our elbows with people
• 21:08
  Speaker 6: hawk and AI, their best answer is, well, it's out
• 21:12
  Speaker 6: there already, so we've got to do something with it,
• 21:15
  Speaker 6: you know.
• 21:16
  Speaker 22: Yeah, I know it's I know it's out there already,
• 21:19
  Speaker 22: but it's sort of scary. And one thing show Marsha,
• 21:23
  Speaker 22: Marsha Marshall.
• 21:24
  Speaker 9: Marshall, Why is it always Marsha?
• 21:28
  Speaker 8: Oh you know, I.

  Speaker 22: Was show you my age, show you my age.
• 21:33
  Speaker 8: You know. I was always that guy.
• 21:35
  Speaker 6: I was the one that liked, you know, the Nona,
• 21:38
  Speaker 6: I didn't like Fara Fawcet on Charlie's Angels. I was,
• 21:41
  Speaker 6: you know, so I was always that guy who went

• 24:32
  Speaker 17: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,

  Speaker 1: First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 28:17
  Speaker 26: I'm afraid of the Russians.
• 28:20
  Speaker 12: I can't sleep at night.
• 28:24
  Speaker 17: I'm so afraid of the Russians, Afraid we've got to fight.
• 28:29
  Speaker 6: So one of my favorite stories just because it is
• 28:32
  Speaker 6: so ridiculous, and I wanted to share it with you
• 28:37
  Speaker 6: just simply because of the depths, and it kind of
• 28:42
  Speaker 6: ties into what doctor Clark was saying. With our media,
• 28:46
  Speaker 6: we don't have time. According to if you listen to
• 28:49
  Speaker 6: folks in the media, we didn't tell you that story
• 28:51
  Speaker 6: because well, we didn't have time. When you know, we
• 28:55
  Speaker 6: have hours and hours and hours of our own time.
• 28:58
  Speaker 6: We are in charge of it, we program it. Most
• 29:02
  Speaker 6: of the anchors for the network News used to be
• 29:05
  Speaker 6: and maybe this is one of the problems too, is
• 29:08
  Speaker 6: anchors of the evening newscast. Also were the producers of
• 29:12
  Speaker 6: that newscast. They were in charge of who did what
• 29:15
  Speaker 6: and where and all that, And maybe that's gone away,
• 29:20
  Speaker 6: And that's a perilous thing because then you're really turning
• 29:24
  Speaker 6: it over to people who have no skin in the
• 29:26
  Speaker 6: game anyway. But then the idea that we don't have
• 29:30
  Speaker 6: time to tell you about research into Thailand All and
• 29:35
  Speaker 6: a quick subtext, let's not forget Thailand All actually had
• 29:39
  Speaker 6: a warning label on it saying do not take if pregnant.
• 29:46
  Speaker 6: So it's not even you and me and r FK
• 29:50
  Speaker 6: Junior Thailand All. Who makes that?
• 29:54
  Speaker 8: Is it? Does that squib or is it Bayer? MRK?
• 29:58
  Speaker 8: I don't know who makes.
• 29:59
  Speaker 6: Them, but you know they had their own warning label
• 30:04
  Speaker 6: on warning against the use of their product during pregnancy.
• 30:11
  Speaker 8: And a warning label. So we don't have time to.
• 30:19
  Speaker 6: Go into these research reports. I don't know why that is.
• 30:24
  Speaker 6: I think you have the attention for it. Maybe you
• 30:26
  Speaker 6: were in a different world, maybe twenty years ago, when
• 30:29
  Speaker 6: I was doing hot hits and you know, classic rock
• 30:32
  Speaker 6: and stunt boy, you know, covered in peanut butter and
• 30:35
  Speaker 6: stuff like that, you wouldn't have been interested in I was,
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: and I would you know, in between you know, Doobie
• 30:43
  Speaker 6: Brothers records, we'd all of a sudden drop in with
• 30:46
  Speaker 6: some local medical professional or would do something with, you know,
• 30:51
  Speaker 6: a local charity raising money for you know, different groups
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: and things like that and political leaders.
• 31:00
  Speaker 8: So I always knew I was taking here.
• 31:02
  Speaker 6: I've run into people who knew me back in the
• 31:05
  Speaker 6: classic rock days and like, yeah, you are always headed
• 31:07
  Speaker 6: to talk radio, Joe. You were already there in a
• 31:11
  Speaker 6: lot of ways. But this is the kind of stuff.
• 31:16
  Speaker 6: This story I'm going to read to you, is the
• 31:18
  Speaker 6: kind of stuff that keeps us from hearing about these
• 31:21
  Speaker 6: research projects and things like that, because this is front
• 31:24
  Speaker 6: page news reports from the White House that overheard in
• 31:31
  Speaker 6: the hallways outside of the meeting between President Donald Trump
• 31:35
  Speaker 6: and Ukrainian President Voladimir Zelenski descended into a shouting match.
• 31:43
  Speaker 6: The Financial Times reported the two presidents engaged in a
• 31:47
  Speaker 6: heated exchanged marked by profanity, thrown papers and ultimatums over
• 31:52
  Speaker 6: Ukraine's future. Now here's the fun part. Soultiple individuals familiar
• 32:01
  Speaker 6: with the meeting tell Newsmax the belligerence did not happen
• 32:06
  Speaker 6: and that both leaders conducted themselves with great civility throughout
• 32:11
  Speaker 6: the meeting. Quote Now, I guess civility is in the
• 32:15
  Speaker 6: eye of the beholder. There was no shouting. One senior
• 32:19
  Speaker 6: US official president in the room said there was no shouting,
• 32:22
  Speaker 6: no cursing at each other, and no ultimatums. The meeting
• 32:26
  Speaker 6: was frank, honest, and at times intense because of the
• 32:29
  Speaker 6: gravity of the issues being.
• 32:31
  Speaker 8: Discussed, but it was entirely respectful.
• 32:37
  Speaker 6: For his part, Vladimir Zelenski, you know, he's like an
• 32:41
  Speaker 6: American politician. The most dangerous place in Ukraine isn't where
• 32:47
  Speaker 6: the Russians are bombing infrastructure. It's in between Voladimir's Lensky
• 32:52
  Speaker 6: and a TV camera. So it's not like he hasn't spoken,
• 32:58
  Speaker 6: probably given twenty five interview since he left the White
• 33:01
  Speaker 6: House on Friday. You don't think he'd say a little
• 33:06
  Speaker 6: thing like well, the President and I were very passionate
• 33:09
  Speaker 6: about him. But this is with the stuff that keeps
• 33:12
  Speaker 6: you from knowing what's going on. And just to prove
• 33:26
  Speaker 6: my point, my friend Bob in Virginia texts to me
• 33:30
  Speaker 6: at four three four eight eight two four two one
• 33:32
  Speaker 6: seven hearing that I was I forgot her name. The
• 33:38
  Speaker 6: she's done a bunch of other things before Charlie's Angels,
• 33:41
  Speaker 6: but there was.
• 33:43
  Speaker 8: There was Sarah Faucet.
• 33:44
  Speaker 6: And and the black haired one and then the short
• 33:48
  Speaker 6: black haired one who is always the brainy one and
• 33:51
  Speaker 6: I always fell for her and Bob and Virginia says,
• 33:56
  Speaker 6: that's is that because you knew you had no chance
• 33:59
  Speaker 6: with Farah Fass.
• 34:02
  Speaker 8: No, it's just I don't want to go down this
• 34:05
  Speaker 8: briar badge. But this is the stuff that we amuse
• 34:09
  Speaker 8: ourselves with their The issue is.
• 34:17
  Speaker 6: Whether or not you want to paint Donald Trump as
• 34:21
  Speaker 6: a dangerous ass. This story and the Financial Times is
• 34:29
  Speaker 6: written by the same people I don't know specifically, but
• 34:34
  Speaker 6: the same editorial bent that's been going on since twenty sixteen,
• 34:39
  Speaker 6: since he won the primary, that you can't allow this
• 34:43
  Speaker 6: man to be president. He's dangerous. It was Joe Biden's
• 34:48
  Speaker 6: entire premise, along with phony votes that nobody can track
• 34:53
  Speaker 6: back to the seven million of them, along with the
• 34:57
  Speaker 6: seven million votes nobody can find before or Joe Biden's
• 35:01
  Speaker 6: campaign when he spoke to a camera was about how
• 35:06
  Speaker 6: he was going to be the leader, the adult in
• 35:11
  Speaker 6: the room or the man in the adult underpants. I'm
• 35:15
  Speaker 6: not sure there's something about adult in the room, and
• 35:19
  Speaker 6: that Trump was dangerous and he would put Americans at
• 35:23
  Speaker 6: peril because of his bombast and his ego maniacal rantings
• 35:28
  Speaker 6: and ravings, and which nobody ever manifests any indication or
• 35:34
  Speaker 6: of the of any evidence of a monomaniacal ranting that
• 35:39
  Speaker 6: goes on.
• 35:41
  Speaker 8: And there's been plenty of time.
• 35:45
  Speaker 6: Even the people who have gone into courts suing Donald
• 35:48
  Speaker 6: Trump have never said he just blows up and just
• 35:51
  Speaker 6: goes into profanity lace tirades. But we have to keep

  Speaker 6: It just wasn't part of the plan to have that
• 36:27
  Speaker 6: conversation about Kate Jackson at that moment. But the idea
• 36:36
  Speaker 6: to make President Trump out to be dangerous and somebody
• 36:40
  Speaker 6: that must be rained in has been going on since
• 36:44
  Speaker 6: the day he became the nominee. Really honestly, halfway through
• 36:48
  Speaker 6: the nominating process, as candidates were falling out left, right,
• 36:52
  Speaker 6: up and up, down and center, and it became more
• 36:57
  Speaker 6: and more apparent that it would be Trump as the nominee.
• 37:00
  Speaker 6: More and more people were out there saying he's dangerous,
• 37:03
  Speaker 6: He's going to get us a reward just to make
• 37:06
  Speaker 6: himself look good. So of course you're given an opportunity
• 37:14
  Speaker 6: with a closed door meeting, you want to go out. Oh,
• 37:22
  Speaker 6: they yelled at each other and he was a jerk,
• 37:24
  Speaker 6: and you know this is why you can't trust him
• 37:27
  Speaker 6: and Congress needs to impeach him.
• 37:29
  Speaker 8: And where are the Republicans?
• 37:31
  Speaker 6: And I guarantee you you'll have half of today eaten
• 37:35
  Speaker 6: up with people saying where is Mike Johnson? Why isn't
• 37:40
  Speaker 6: John Thune have something to say about this? They may
• 37:43
  Speaker 6: be actually trying to get the Senate Democrats to agree
• 37:47
  Speaker 6: to reopen the government on a spending plan that they
• 37:50
  Speaker 6: voted in favor of thirteen times. But again, we want
• 37:54
  Speaker 6: you talking about Donald Trump's profanity laced shouting match with

  Speaker 25: diabetes and heart disease, and if your doctor recommends lifestyle
• 41:28
  Speaker 25: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is

• 44:12
  Speaker 1: For you from Joe Thomas. It's first thing today.
• 44:27
  Speaker 29: I think the Republican candidate is very good and I
• 44:30
  Speaker 29: think she should win because the Democrat candidate is a disaster.
• 44:34
  Speaker 29: So I haven't been too much involved in Virginia. I
• 44:37
  Speaker 29: love the state. I did very well in the state,
• 44:39
  Speaker 29: but I will tell you I think the Republican candidate
• 44:42
  Speaker 29: is excellent and I think the Democrat candidate is a disaster.
• 44:46
  Speaker 29: I mean I watched her the debate. You couldn't answer
• 44:49
  Speaker 29: the most basic question. And you know, a big thing
• 44:52
  Speaker 29: with that race, and also the race in New Jersey
• 44:54
  Speaker 29: is going to be energy. Both of the Democrats are
• 44:57
  Speaker 29: going to drive the energy prices through the roof.
• 45:01
  Speaker 6: As President Trump on Sunday, in what is now one
• 45:04
  Speaker 6: of my favorite parts of the week, which is his
• 45:07
  Speaker 6: hallway gaggle with the press, you know, and it's sometimes
• 45:12
  Speaker 6: it really looks like they just catch him coming out
• 45:14
  Speaker 6: of the restroom at the back of Air Force one
• 45:17
  Speaker 6: and it's like, oh, it's President, Like they got him
• 45:19
  Speaker 6: trapped in this door. But it's it's kind of one
• 45:22
  Speaker 6: of those little things like the fireside chat that happens there.
• 45:26
  Speaker 6: And yet then they still go on and say he's
• 45:28
  Speaker 6: inaccessible or he's belliger into the media. I think he's
• 45:32
  Speaker 6: given the media more access than I'm sure a lot
• 45:35
  Speaker 6: of his advisors would like. Somewhere, you know, in between
• 45:40
  Speaker 6: what Trump does with the media and what you see
• 45:42
  Speaker 6: Stephen Miller doing, you know, think there's a happy medium
• 45:45
  Speaker 6: in there there, joining us from the belly of the
• 45:49
  Speaker 6: beast where he's going to weigh in and go on
• 45:53
  Speaker 6: to a college campus and and try to, you know,
• 45:56
  Speaker 6: win over some of those young minds. There is one
• 46:00
  Speaker 6: of those folks that is even starting to get a
• 46:05
  Speaker 6: positive press here in Virginia with some of the crusty
• 46:11
  Speaker 6: old relics of a bygone era where all you had
• 46:15
  Speaker 6: to do was call Senator Byrd and he'd tell you
• 46:17
  Speaker 6: who to cover in the guys like Duayne Yancy are
• 46:21
  Speaker 6: out there saying nice things about John Reid and his
• 46:24
  Speaker 6: campaign for a lieutenant governor, a campaign to be the
• 46:28
  Speaker 6: tie breaking vote, and a narrowly divided Senate. There on
• 46:33
  Speaker 6: so many issues, John, good morning, sir.
• 46:35
  Speaker 8: How are you doing.
• 46:37
  Speaker 26: I'm great, And I think some reporters actually do expect
• 46:41
  Speaker 26: to interact with the candidate. They expect to see the
• 46:44
  Speaker 26: candidate out hustling, shaking hands with people, sitting at coffee tables,
• 46:49
  Speaker 26: meeting with people listening to them.
• 46:51
  Speaker 8: That is real.
• 46:54
  Speaker 26: I don't want to say politics. That's real leadership, that's
• 46:57
  Speaker 26: real engagement servant leadership. Well, then some some reporters care
• 47:02
  Speaker 26: about it. I'm afraid that a younger generation of reporters
• 47:05
  Speaker 26: who have grown up with you know, keyboard warrior attitudes
• 47:10
  Speaker 26: on social media, maybe they don't care. That's why they're
• 47:13
  Speaker 26: letting my opponent, Kauzala Hashmi get away with very few,
• 47:17
  Speaker 26: if any interviews and zero debates in the campaign for
• 47:21
  Speaker 26: lieutenant governor while I'm out hustling all over the state
• 47:24
  Speaker 26: talking to people.
• 47:25
  Speaker 6: Well, and it's this thing we were talking earlier about
• 47:28
  Speaker 6: how our media has just become, you know, a PR firm.
• 47:33
  Speaker 6: We're we're all just pring for our favorite people and
• 47:36
  Speaker 6: and I generally deal in policy myself, and I look
• 47:41
  Speaker 6: at the bills that Deliga Hajmi has put out and
• 47:46
  Speaker 6: I just I shake my head. I say, you can't
• 47:48
  Speaker 6: do that. This is bad wrapped in horrible, covered in
• 47:51
  Speaker 6: special sauce. And so you know, when when I say
• 47:54
  Speaker 6: I don't want, it's not that I don't like her personally.
• 47:57
  Speaker 8: I don't know her personally, but you know, the.
• 48:00
  Speaker 6: Policies that she promotes are dangerous for Virginians, and they're
• 48:04
  Speaker 6: dangerous for a political landscape that can't afford the kind
• 48:08
  Speaker 6: of subsidization nation she wants to bring on.
• 48:13
  Speaker 26: Yeah, but she's wrong on just about everything. Everything you
• 48:15
  Speaker 26: hate about the public schools. She's the chair of the
• 48:18
  Speaker 26: Senate Education Committee.
• 48:19
  Speaker 8: She's been pushing them.
• 48:20
  Speaker 26: She's the one that kept the schools closed with Ralph
• 48:22
  Speaker 26: Northan for an extra year, she even when we knew
• 48:25
  Speaker 26: it was hurting the kids. She's the one that's pushing
• 48:28
  Speaker 26: for boys and girls' sports. She's the one pushing for
• 48:31
  Speaker 26: men in the bathroom. She's the one who's double the
• 48:34
  Speaker 26: spending on public education to twenty one billion dollars, and
• 48:39
  Speaker 26: yet there's no accountability for any of that money. I
• 48:41
  Speaker 26: mean I'm not against spending more money on public education
• 48:44
  Speaker 26: if you're actually getting something out of it. She refuses
• 48:47
  Speaker 26: to discipline the kids. She's the one changing the forms
• 48:50
  Speaker 26: from mother to birthing person. I mean, this lady is
• 48:55
  Speaker 26: a She is the radical progressive that everyone has warned
• 48:59
  Speaker 26: you about, and yet no one demands that she answer
• 49:03
  Speaker 26: any questions. Even you know, even the other day, I
• 49:06
  Speaker 26: brought up the idea of Sharia law and how you
• 49:10
  Speaker 26: manage Sharia law versus American common law, and I was
• 49:16
  Speaker 26: immediately called an islamophobe, even though I lived in the
• 49:18
  Speaker 26: Middle East, even though I travel around the world, even
• 49:21
  Speaker 26: though I have never done or said anything that would
• 49:24
  Speaker 26: indicate that an I'm an islamaphobe. Bringing up this question,
• 49:28
  Speaker 26: which is currently before numerous legislatures around the country and
• 49:34
  Speaker 26: in the federal legislature, that is off limits for someone
• 49:38
  Speaker 26: to ask. Well, Zala Hashmi doesn't have to answer that question.
• 49:42
  Speaker 26: Pat Robertson did, Jerry Folwell did. All these evangelical Christians
• 49:47
  Speaker 26: are constantly asked how they'll navigate their Christian faith if
• 49:50
  Speaker 26: they're elected, But for some reason, Gazalahshmi doesn't have to
• 49:54
  Speaker 26: answer any questions.
• 49:55
  Speaker 8: Okay, all right, but.
• 49:57
  Speaker 6: It's one of those things that I find the disingenuity
• 50:00
  Speaker 6: where we're bending over forwards for a lot of you know,
• 50:03
  Speaker 6: activist groups to get a little here, a little there,
• 50:06
  Speaker 6: you know. And I watched these folks with No Kings
• 50:09
  Speaker 6: too over the weekend, John, and I noticed they didn't
• 50:12
  Speaker 6: invite you to any of those UH to speak out.
• 50:15
  Speaker 6: And they're out there and they're and they're talking about
• 50:18
  Speaker 6: UH programs that don't help anyone but make them feel better.
• 50:23
  Speaker 6: It's it was this virtue signal signalers march all across Virginia.
• 50:29
  Speaker 6: Please do these things so we can go home to
• 50:31
  Speaker 6: our gated community and feel better.
• 50:33
  Speaker 10: Uh.
• 50:33
  Speaker 6: Please don't send these people back to the countries where
• 50:36
  Speaker 6: they're uh sort of oh our neighbors. And the false
• 50:40
  Speaker 6: narratives they were gonna it was crazy making. What were
• 50:43
  Speaker 6: your thoughts of some of those No Kings marches, Well,
• 50:48
  Speaker 6: some of.
• 50:48
  Speaker 8: It centered around illegal immigration, and.
• 50:51
  Speaker 26: I I just got to tell you, you are fooling yourself.
• 50:55
  Speaker 26: If you think keeping people in the country illegally is
• 50:58
  Speaker 26: helping them.
• 50:59
  Speaker 8: You are harmed them.
• 51:00
  Speaker 26: You are harming American wages, and quite frankly, you are
• 51:03
  Speaker 26: taking advantage of workers who have no recourse if they
• 51:07
  Speaker 26: are abused by businesses, by individuals, they can't call the
• 51:11
  Speaker 26: cops because they're here illegally. So you are actually supporting
• 51:18
  Speaker 26: a system that has come up amongst us where people
• 51:22
  Speaker 26: are shafted in this society. Now you tell me who's
• 51:25
  Speaker 26: looking out for the average person, the human beings, someone
• 51:29
  Speaker 26: like these leftists who want to keep a kind of
• 51:33
  Speaker 26: a slave wages type society, or someone like me who
• 51:37
  Speaker 26: is saying everyone needs to be documented, they need to
• 51:39
  Speaker 26: be paid what the law requires, they need to be
• 51:43
  Speaker 26: treated equally and fairly under the law. I refuse to
• 51:48
  Speaker 26: be bullied into the corner when I'm the one standing
• 51:51
  Speaker 26: up for the working people in this society.
• 51:53
  Speaker 6: John Reid's going to be at the University of Virginia,
• 51:56
  Speaker 6: of all places, tonight. We got a minute left here
• 52:00
  Speaker 6: and then I want to hold on to you for
• 52:01
  Speaker 6: a little bit. Tell me what you guys are going
• 52:03
  Speaker 6: to be doing talking about at UVA tonight.
• 52:06
  Speaker 26: Well, I suspect we'll talk about the University of Virginia
• 52:09
  Speaker 26: and how it's been off track for a while, how
• 52:11
  Speaker 26: their president had to design which I think was an
• 52:14
  Speaker 26: appropriate resignation, and how they hate Donald Trump so much
• 52:18
  Speaker 26: they will sacrifice federal funding in order to continue DEI
• 52:22
  Speaker 26: unfairness on campus.
• 52:25
  Speaker 8: So I suspect that'll lead up some of our time.
• 52:27
  Speaker 26: UVA is a great institution, and it needs great leadership
• 52:31
  Speaker 26: that doubles down on meritocracy rather than diversity, equity and inclusion.
• 52:37
  Speaker 8: The fallacy of.
• 52:38
  Speaker 6: That, John Reid for Virginia. Hang on the line with me,
• 52:41
  Speaker 6: John here, but we've got the news coming up here
• 52:43
  Speaker 6: at nine more Trans Siberian Orchestra tickets tomorrow. I'm Joe Thomas,
