- 0:04Speaker 1: We've cut the cost of radio listening. By hell, it

- 0:17Speaker 1: Thomas on the Dunk Media Network.
- 0:19Speaker 3: George said, steal me Stem.

- 0:33Speaker 5: needs the one that Joe's as smile he only eggs.
- 0:38Speaker 6: Be Jae, thank you for letting me be of service
- 0:44Speaker 6: to you this morning. I want to be on the
- 0:48Speaker 6: radio program unabashedly calling itself a radio program. But if
- 0:52Speaker 6: you insist on being a part of the cool kids club,
- 0:55Speaker 6: you can refer to yourself as content creators. Us.
- 1:00Speaker 2: We do radio.
- 1:01Speaker 6: We bask in the amplitude and frequency modulation of your transmitters,
- 1:06Speaker 6: you being the most important local part of your local
- 1:10Speaker 6: radio station. We'll post all of this into the digital world. Yes,
- 1:14Speaker 6: you can podcast us as well, because not everybody gets
- 1:18Speaker 6: every hour of the program. Gastedly, many people, including my wife, say,
- 1:23Speaker 6: you do this for four hours in a row. Yeah,
- 1:29Speaker 6: but you know we truncated. It's it's a lot to cover,
- 1:32Speaker 6: so we need the time four three four eight eight
- 1:36Speaker 6: two four two one seven is how you become that
- 1:39Speaker 6: content creator everyone wants. I've seen people with business cards
- 1:45Speaker 6: that call themselves content creators. Maybe that could be our promotion.
- 1:50Speaker 6: You don't how you know, a lot of radio stations
- 1:52Speaker 6: they give out discount cards and you know, you get
- 1:55Speaker 6: your oil change for half price or whatever. We should
- 1:58Speaker 6: give out business card rds, you know, to regular contributors.
- 2:04Speaker 6: I'm Bob, I live in Moscow and I'm a content
- 2:07Speaker 6: creator for First Thing Today by Joe Thomas. You know,
- 2:11Speaker 6: make it. You know, it's like an insider's club. Now
- 2:14Speaker 6: that's not fair because that would that that infers that
- 2:18Speaker 6: somebody is going to go to the head of the
- 2:19Speaker 6: line rather than you when you call. But it was
- 2:23Speaker 6: just a wistful thought that kind of flew in and
- 2:26Speaker 6: flew out the other window there. But lots still to
- 2:30Speaker 6: get into. The President trying to resuscitate the coal industry,
- 2:35Speaker 6: and good for him, because we are the Saudi Arabia
- 2:40Speaker 6: of coal. We'll get into that. What free markets mean.
- 2:45Speaker 6: And you know why these wars that since you know,
- 2:49Speaker 6: we took such interesting votes yesterday in the House of
- 2:53Speaker 6: representatives on war powers. I want to spend some time
- 2:56Speaker 6: with us. You guys hang on the line with me
- 2:58Speaker 6: at four three four A two four two one seven
- 3:02Speaker 6: before we can discuss the things that went on last night.
- 3:05Speaker 6: Let's tell you what they were. President Trump told AIDS
- 3:11Speaker 6: he is not going to break any ceasefire with Iran
- 3:14Speaker 6: or resume any full scale military operations unless American troops
- 3:20Speaker 6: are killed. This was a conversation a meeting that was
- 3:23Speaker 6: leaked to the Wall Street Journal. Marco Rubio, however, was
- 3:28Speaker 6: in front of Congress being grilled over the war with Iran,
- 3:31Speaker 6: ostensibly there to ask for his budget lines to be fulfilled,
- 3:35Speaker 6: but certainly the conversation went to Operation Epic Fury. He said,
- 3:41Speaker 6: we are no longer containing conducting can sustained strikes because
- 3:47Speaker 6: Epic Fury is over. Kuwait says within six weeks of
- 3:52Speaker 6: getting the Strait of Horror moves open, they'll be back
- 3:54Speaker 6: to at least seventy percent of their oil production. The
- 4:00Speaker 6: House voted yesterday to rein in or to pass a
- 4:04Speaker 6: bill that were, if it was to enter into law,
- 4:07Speaker 6: would reign in the president's ability to wage any military
- 4:12Speaker 6: operations without their permission. Any instance The vote was two
- 4:18Speaker 6: fifteen to two eight, four Republicans joining all of the
- 4:22Speaker 6: Democrats to vote in favor of it. It doesn't have
- 4:25Speaker 6: enough votes in the Senate, however. Arizona Democrat Reuben Gego
- 4:31Speaker 6: is trying to overturn Trump policy that says that anyone
- 4:36Speaker 6: who's applying for a green card must go to their
- 4:38Speaker 6: country of origin to apply for it. President Trump did say,
- 4:43Speaker 6: speaking of overseas travel, will be heading to France for
- 4:47Speaker 6: the G seven summit right after the UFC Championship fights
- 4:51Speaker 6: on the south lawn of the White House. He also
- 4:55Speaker 6: said yesterday at an event that he's going to nominate
- 4:59Speaker 6: Acting Attorneys General Todd Blanche to permanently take the role tomorrow.
- 5:03Speaker 6: I'm instructing Dan Scavino and everybody else that's involved in
- 5:07Speaker 6: that very complicated process which is going to go, I
- 5:10Speaker 6: think very quickly. Trump administration has proposed new tariffs of
- 5:16Speaker 6: ten and twelve and a half percent on imports from
- 5:19Speaker 6: sixty economies that they've determined have failed to curb the
- 5:25Speaker 6: trades in goods made with forced labor. Senior EU lawmaker
- 5:32Speaker 6: called the plan absurd. The USTR proposed ten percent additional
- 5:38Speaker 6: duties on imports from Canada, Ecuador, the European Union, Indonesia, Mexico, Pakistan, Argentina, Bangladesh, Campodia,
- 5:48Speaker 6: El Salvador, Guatemala, Malaysia, Taiwan, and Britain. And President Trump
- 5:54Speaker 6: said he really thinks the ticket of Jdvans with Marco
- 5:58Speaker 6: Rubio's vice president would be unbeatable. Many people are saying,
- 6:03Speaker 6: Oh my gosh, he's endorsed Jdvents already.

- 10:07Speaker 16: type two diabetes, heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a
- 10:10Speaker 16: million people a year. Even sadder, most of these deaths

- 10:18Speaker 16: healthier eating, and not smoking. Talk to your doctor about

- 10:26Speaker 16: if your doctor recommends lifestyle changes or medication, listen. The

- 13:12Speaker 1: First thing today on the Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas.
- 13:17Speaker 26: You've got to kiss an angel.
- 13:20Speaker 15: Good morning.
- 13:22Speaker 3: And I don't know you think about or when you're gone.
- 13:25Speaker 6: That's how we roll here. As Pride Month continues four three, four, eight, eight,
- 13:32Speaker 6: two four to two one seven that's the phone number
- 13:35Speaker 6: of emails comeing to JT in the morning radio at
- 13:38Speaker 6: gmail dot com. Let's check in on the California counting there.
- 13:44Speaker 6: So it's the same same one guy right, one guy there.
- 13:50Speaker 6: Oh no, the light went on and he got distracted
- 13:53Speaker 6: and he's got to start over again. This is why
- 13:55Speaker 6: it's taking so long to get anywhere with us. Every
- 13:58Speaker 6: time somebody calls these he lose his track of his count.
- 14:02Speaker 6: He's got to start all over again. We just have
- 14:06Speaker 6: somebody there spot him and just keep it. Just crazy
- 14:10Speaker 6: how long it's taking there. Are they using an abacus?
- 14:16Speaker 6: I think it'd be easier for them to keep square
- 14:19Speaker 6: as to what's going on. Marco Rubio, after the hearing yesterday,
- 14:27Speaker 6: he spoke to the press and made this statement.
- 14:32Speaker 9: On the Gang of Eight, on the Iron War.
- 14:35Speaker 18: He's up on the hill.
- 14:35Speaker 14: Let's take a listen.
- 14:38Speaker 2: We live even free positions.
- 14:41Speaker 27: The third is the assessment that was made that if
- 14:44Speaker 27: we stood and waited for that attack to come first
- 14:47Speaker 27: before we hit them, we would suffer much higher casualties,
- 14:51Speaker 27: and so the president made the very wise decision. We
- 14:53Speaker 27: knew that there was going to be an Israeli action.
- 14:56Speaker 27: We knew that that would precipitate an attack against American forces,
- 14:59Speaker 27: and we knew that if we didn't preemptively go after
- 15:01Speaker 27: them before they launched those attacks, we would suffer higher
- 15:04Speaker 27: casualties and perhaps even those killed, and then we would
- 15:08Speaker 27: all be here answering questions about why we knew that
- 15:10Speaker 27: and didn't act.
- 15:11Speaker 6: So is that debunk A lot of my friends on
- 15:15Speaker 6: the left are out there saying, see, there was no
- 15:18Speaker 6: thread against the United States unless Israel made an attack
- 15:24Speaker 6: on Iran.
- 15:29Speaker 2: So the.
- 15:32Speaker 6: Way it lays out in Secretary Rubio's statement there to
- 15:36Speaker 6: the press yesterday was that and what they've left out,
- 15:40Speaker 6: and of course this is why I'm bringing this up,
- 15:43Speaker 6: is that the press has left out the part where
- 15:46Speaker 6: Israel was going to take action against Iran for missiles
- 15:53Speaker 6: that they were shooting and going to start shooting at Israel.
- 15:58Speaker 6: So they went out after those and we said, okay,
- 16:02Speaker 6: they're going to start this. So kinetically, these are the instances,
- 16:07Speaker 6: but on a bigger abstract, this is what Iran has
- 16:14Speaker 6: been doing forever, which is we're going to fund these
- 16:19Speaker 6: actions against other countries, and we're going to fight the
- 16:23Speaker 6: US through proxies, and we're going to continue to cause
- 16:33Speaker 6: death of Americans, civilian or otherwise, as long as you
- 16:43Speaker 6: know we exist, because it is our call, it is
- 16:47Speaker 6: our calling to do it. And this is why Jefferson
- 16:58Speaker 6: said two hundred and forty years ago that we probably
- 17:01Speaker 6: are going to have to end this with a war.
- 17:07Speaker 6: And it was ostensibly because this was an ideology based
- 17:13Speaker 6: on tenets of their faith that they couldn't put aside
- 17:20Speaker 6: to exist with another nation, that it was doctrine that
- 17:30Speaker 6: they had to do these things. So as long as
- 17:34Speaker 6: there was a Western country there but this will and
- 17:37Speaker 6: I'm playing this out for you so you're aware, this
- 17:39Speaker 6: is going to feed the anti Israel rhetoric, the antisemitic
- 17:45Speaker 6: rhetoric that our alliance with Israel, and perhaps our alliance
- 17:53Speaker 6: with Israel does more damage to Israel than it does
- 17:56Speaker 6: to US. I don't think so. But the argument is,
- 17:59Speaker 6: as long as Israel exists, and extra extrapolate from that,
- 18:03Speaker 6: what do you mean, we will be wrong. So you've
- 18:08Speaker 6: been warned. There. Andy is on the line with us
- 18:10Speaker 6: at four three four eight eight two four two one
- 18:14Speaker 6: seven has thought of a chain of events that he
- 18:17Speaker 6: wanted to bring up to us. Andy, go ahead, you
- 18:20Speaker 6: have the floor.
- 18:22Speaker 28: So the I grew up looking at the Yorktown, Virginia
- 18:26Speaker 28: power Plant. Yeah, and so that I mean, I was
- 18:30Speaker 28: like three, I think when we moved there. My father
- 18:34Speaker 28: was a rocket scientist at NASA. His paternal father died
- 18:40Speaker 28: when he was less than a year old. But the
- 18:43Speaker 28: family had half of the anthracite coal mines in eastern Kentucky.
- 18:49Speaker 28: And I'm just finding some of this stuff out. One
- 18:52Speaker 28: of the other things I'm finding out is that uh,
- 18:55Speaker 28: nutty people on the left.
- 18:58Speaker 2: Yeah, these Marxist they burned courthouses.
- 19:02Speaker 28: And I'm finding some other things that my on my
- 19:07Speaker 28: granda from my paternal uh I'm sorry, my maternal grandmother side,
- 19:14Speaker 28: they actually had a toil factory that was on the
- 19:21Speaker 28: right across the river from Cincinnati. So Cincinnati is obviously
- 19:25Speaker 28: you know it's named after the Society of the Cincinnatis if.
- 19:30Speaker 6: You oh, yeah, the Romans, ye exists, and doctor brad
- 19:34Speaker 6: and two of his retreat Well, but I want to
- 19:36Speaker 6: go back. I thought we started talking about the power plants,
- 19:40Speaker 6: and I thought, that's what you wanted to get into,
- 19:42Speaker 6: is getting the cold silent plants going.
- 19:45Speaker 2: So the my paternal.
- 19:49Speaker 28: Grandfather, who died in nineteen twenty three after mining his
- 19:54Speaker 28: own coal. Basically with the Combe family, they owned half
- 19:58Speaker 28: of these coal mines and they were forced to sell
- 20:03Speaker 28: it at silly prices in the early nineteen twenties for
- 20:08Speaker 28: and you know, and so I mean it was if
- 20:11Speaker 28: you look at one of these graphs of the wholesale
- 20:14Speaker 28: you know, coal price, that it was not them price galagy,
- 20:19Speaker 28: and it was just there wasn't any of it. So
- 20:22Speaker 28: and if you had access to here, just a shovelful
- 20:26Speaker 28: of coal, it was worth a lot very much.
- 20:28Speaker 2: They used to call it the black diamond.
- 20:31Speaker 9: H And so it it's that the coal still exists.
- 20:37Speaker 28: The rail lines go in and out of Hazard, Kentucky,
- 20:41Speaker 28: and Hazard actually is in Period County. And I was like,
- 20:46Speaker 28: what is the tie in here? I'm thinking, well, the
- 20:49Speaker 28: Perry family, uh, you know they were they were warriors
- 20:54Speaker 28: and admiral I guess one of them, I don't know,
- 20:58Speaker 28: whatever you call them. When you get to the high
- 21:00Speaker 28: rank of being a uh you know, naval officer, and
- 21:04Speaker 28: the French had had, you know, required us or asked
- 21:08Speaker 28: for us to uh you know, sort of lookout for
- 21:11Speaker 28: each other. And in terms of you know, the naval power,
- 21:16Speaker 28: and that's something a lot of people don't realize. But
- 21:19Speaker 28: every three years people meet either in France or they
- 21:25Speaker 28: meet on the US side, and the society still exists.
- 21:31Speaker 28: But you know, they just do you think, and it's
- 21:34Speaker 28: about keeping peace.
- 21:36Speaker 6: But I mean, is it about getting coal back out
- 21:39Speaker 6: of the ground and into use so that we can
- 21:41Speaker 6: generate electricity?
- 21:44Speaker 28: Well, it the the reason that the coal was started

- 29:01Speaker 31: and he also had a great one. Goodbye, Dolly Gray.
- 29:03Speaker 31: I don't know where that any of those phrases came from.
- 29:06Speaker 31: But they were in my ears a lot.
- 29:09Speaker 2: With all that going on in the you.
- 29:12Speaker 31: Know, the UT, the Texas Texas Tech you know, rivalry
- 29:17Speaker 31: and unfolding, and it looks like Texas is going to
- 29:20Speaker 31: go back to back in women's College World Series. Nick
- 29:22Speaker 31: Saban had a dynamite eleven minutes in his opening statements
- 29:28Speaker 31: yesterday to the Senate, and it's a bipartisan effort. There
- 29:34Speaker 31: were there were I don't know one hundred and fifty
- 29:36Speaker 31: people in this room that where Nick Saban spoke. And
- 29:40Speaker 31: I'm going to walk you through some of the things
- 29:41Speaker 31: because he said, he just said, so what were they?
- 29:44Speaker 6: What were doing a hearing on well because of.
- 29:47Speaker 31: The okay, the project, the project bill, the project and
- 29:50Speaker 31: the College Sports Project bill that the Cruise and Centered
- 29:55Speaker 31: Blackwell are working on to say, okay, I have the Senate,
- 29:58Speaker 31: Uh let's you know, let's get this together because and
- 30:03Speaker 31: so it.
- 30:03Speaker 6: Is the same one you've mentioned to us, yeah.
- 30:05Speaker 31: Yeah, yeah, And the lady Marshall Blackburn from Tennessee basically
- 30:09Speaker 31: she opened up her mouth and said the nc double
- 30:11Speaker 31: At has done a terrible job in monitoring all this.
- 30:15Speaker 31: But no really, but Saban was so good, all right,
- 30:19Speaker 31: A snippet. This was Saban's like opening statement to the
- 30:22Speaker 31: center panel.
- 30:23Speaker 32: We've moved away from development to focusing on money and
- 30:27Speaker 32: not life skills.
- 30:28Speaker 2: So to put this in.
- 30:29Speaker 32: Perspective, if you had the biggest, baddest Ferrari that you
- 30:32Speaker 32: could ever have, and it was going one hundred and
- 30:34Speaker 32: fifty miles an hour tour to Grand Canyon, somebody needs
- 30:37Speaker 32: to tap the brakes. And I think that's what we
- 30:40Speaker 32: all need to do here.
- 30:41Speaker 31: So somewhere somebody had to have that headline. I haven't
- 30:44Speaker 31: seen it yet. Somebody just tap the Saban, tap the brakes.
- 30:48Speaker 2: I mean, it's just I mean, it couldn't have been
- 30:50Speaker 2: any better.
- 30:50Speaker 31: Right, So he, you know, dove into all the things
- 30:54Speaker 31: that I'm going to break down the project bill for
- 30:55Speaker 31: you kind of in Peace by Peeps a piece, but
- 30:58Speaker 31: I want you to hear Saban first, all right. So
- 31:00Speaker 31: then he talked about name, image, likeness and saved him inuted. Look,
- 31:04Speaker 31: this can be healthy, but it's pay for play and
- 31:08Speaker 31: somebody's got to step in.
- 31:09Speaker 32: A collected is an organization that raises money basically from
- 31:14Speaker 32: alumni to be able to pay players and disguise it
- 31:18Speaker 32: as marketing opportunities. When a school did that. The first
- 31:21Speaker 32: school that did it. I said, do exist what we
- 31:24Speaker 32: want college football to become? And I got really criticized
- 31:27Speaker 32: for that. But it has become that.
- 31:30Speaker 2: Yeah. And Saban noted that when he was.
- 31:34Speaker 31: When he took over in Tuscaloosa, the collective at that
- 31:37Speaker 31: time was two point seven million.
- 31:38Speaker 2: When he retired it was well over twenty.
- 31:41Speaker 31: And he talked about the prices of rosters, and then
- 31:43Speaker 31: football and basketball.
- 31:44Speaker 9: If it continues, everything else is going to be club sports.
- 31:47Speaker 2: Gee. I think Joe Thomas has mentioned that four or
- 31:50Speaker 2: five times.
- 31:51Speaker 6: Yeah, you know how far being from me to say
- 31:53Speaker 6: I told you so? No, thank you Nick for being
- 31:57Speaker 6: a listener. I know we have some uh listeners about that.
- 32:02Speaker 6: You know, I said, uh, Pasca Goula as a matter
- 32:08Speaker 6: of fact, but that's Mississippi. But here's a Gulf Shores.
- 32:13Speaker 6: But but moreover, when he talks about the collective, he's
- 32:17Speaker 6: talking about collective ism. And and we you talked about
- 32:20Speaker 6: this at the onset. It was no longer Hey, you're
- 32:23Speaker 6: the star quarterback. McDonald's wants you to eat, you know,
- 32:26Speaker 6: a big mac on camera and here's a million dollars.
- 32:29Speaker 6: It's give give the money. And you u v A
- 32:32Speaker 6: was one of the first places it was like, no,
- 32:35Speaker 6: we're going to take all the money ourselves. It's I
- 32:37Speaker 6: think it's called uv A futures and and and then
- 32:41Speaker 6: we'll give the money to the players and and we
- 32:45Speaker 6: will throw you know, here's the offensive lineman, here's the
- 32:48Speaker 6: running back, you know.
- 32:49Speaker 9: All across the board and across the board.
- 32:52Speaker 6: And everybody, you know, second string, you know, punter gets
- 32:56Speaker 6: you know, some money out of the futures. And and
- 33:00Speaker 6: I guess that's what they determined was fair. But it
- 33:04Speaker 6: certainly isn't a free market, which is what they were
- 33:07Speaker 6: purporting when they win to this isn't.
- 33:09Speaker 2: No so yeah so.
- 33:10Speaker 31: And then when it got into the floor, you know,
- 33:13Speaker 31: got into the conversation about eligibility last sound. But he's
- 33:17Speaker 31: because we need framework as it relates to the dollars
- 33:20Speaker 31: being spent and eligibility.
- 33:22Speaker 32: Nick Saban old missus quarterback. They say you can't play
- 33:25Speaker 32: next year. He's playing next year because of litigation. So
- 33:29Speaker 32: but this is just the way it is. It's become
- 33:32Speaker 32: an arm race. Who spends the most has got the
- 33:35Speaker 32: best chance to win. But I think it's a race
- 33:37Speaker 32: to the bottom because if you don't spend to win,
- 33:40Speaker 32: you lose your fan base, and you don't have a revenue.
- 33:43Speaker 32: So how do you manage the other sports?
- 33:45Speaker 31: Tap the brakes a race to the bottom. I mean, okay,
- 33:49Speaker 31: we got the headline from neck all right. I'm going
- 33:51Speaker 31: to outline the project real quick because people are going, okay,
- 33:54Speaker 31: I've heard about it.
- 33:54Speaker 2: What all right?
- 33:55Speaker 31: It grants student athletes a new federal right to earn
- 33:58Speaker 31: compensation for name image. Okay, but they're going to legislate that.
- 34:02Speaker 31: It requires agents.
- 34:03Speaker 2: I love this.
- 34:04Speaker 31: It requires agents to register with a state and certify
- 34:09Speaker 31: the NCAA their register, and it caps their fees at
- 34:13Speaker 31: five percent.
- 34:14Speaker 2: Okay, so instead.
- 34:16Speaker 31: Of this thirty forty you know, and Uncle Joe says,
- 34:18Speaker 31: I can take care of this kid, all right, and
- 34:20Speaker 31: then I can go on vacation.
- 34:21Speaker 2: It guarantees I just women. Here we go.
- 34:26Speaker 31: It guarantees scholarships for ten years after eligibility, so athletes
- 34:31Speaker 31: can complete their degrees. It ensures student athletes cannot We'll
- 34:35Speaker 31: get back to that. It ensures student athletes cannot lose
- 34:38Speaker 31: their scholarship because of injury or athletic performance. For D
- 34:42Speaker 31: one schools, it mandates five years of post eligibility medical
- 34:47Speaker 31: coverage all right now. It also gives student athletes five
- 34:50Speaker 31: years of eligibility at nineteen or high school graduation after that,
- 34:56Speaker 31: and it guarantees student athletes one transfer without losing eligibility.
- 35:01Speaker 31: Student athletes that transfer a second time have to sit
- 35:04Speaker 31: out a year in certain cases depending on if the
- 35:06Speaker 31: coach leaves, and YadA, YadA, YadA. But you're not gonna
- 35:09Speaker 31: have So what they're trying to put the cork in
- 35:11Speaker 31: is that no more uh, no more G league guys,
- 35:14Speaker 31: no more uh six and no more twenty four, twenty five,
- 35:17Speaker 31: twenty six year olds playing college, you know, because they
- 35:21Speaker 31: get to transfer and then a year and then a
- 35:22Speaker 31: transfer again, and we're tired of talking about the COVID year.
- 35:25Speaker 2: Okay, I get it right, Yeah, you know, and then
- 35:28Speaker 2: you can't.
- 35:28Speaker 9: So you can no longer bank on the COVID year.
- 35:31Speaker 2: That's gonna that's gonna help.
- 35:32Speaker 6: You because you're in middle school at that point, you know.
- 35:35Speaker 31: So you don't you don't like the ten years after
- 35:37Speaker 31: eligibility to be able to complete.
- 35:39Speaker 9: Uh that's happened.
- 35:41Speaker 2: I don't know what the limit is now.
- 35:44Speaker 6: Just where they admit it's a lie. And this is
- 35:47Speaker 6: such a classic.
- 35:48Speaker 2: No, I agree, No, I agree.
- 35:49Speaker 31: It's like, okay, well you can go go five years,
- 35:52Speaker 31: don't finish, you know, and just go play, go make
- 35:56Speaker 31: your money, but yet.
- 35:57Speaker 2: To have to you know.
- 35:58Speaker 31: I think if you're if you can come back when
- 36:00Speaker 31: you make the money, you should, you know, come back
- 36:02Speaker 31: if you want to get your degree. I kind of
- 36:04Speaker 31: agree with you there that you know, all right, then
- 36:06Speaker 31: you probably have to pay for but this project bill
- 36:09Speaker 31: scholarships for ten years after eligibility.
- 36:12Speaker 6: But then then then go back to just it's a scholarship.
- 36:15Speaker 6: If the scholarship is supposed to it, that's your pay
- 36:20Speaker 6: for playing for the college. And I'm sorry, man, this
- 36:24Speaker 6: is this was when you say cruise, you don't mean
- 36:28Speaker 6: some cruise from like California who's a Democrat, right, This
- 36:32Speaker 6: is no Ted Cruise. This is Ted Cruz, the Texas
- 36:35Speaker 6: former Republican from Texas.
- 36:37Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 36:38Speaker 6: You know a lot of people were mad when Donald
- 36:41Speaker 6: Trump won in twenty sixteen in the Republican primary. I'm thinking,
- 36:45Speaker 6: now we dodged a bullet, you know.
- 36:48Speaker 31: So and now okay, now there's a whole new thing.
- 36:51Speaker 31: So we're gonna we'll put this on the shelf after tomorrow. Okay,
- 36:55Speaker 31: there'll be a macmanute.
- 36:55Speaker 9: Was saying, because he had some other great things to say.
- 36:58Speaker 31: Okay, of course we'll put it on the shelf for
- 37:00Speaker 31: out because next week, because after I work on it
- 37:03Speaker 31: a little more, wait till you hear about the private
- 37:06Speaker 31: equity firms. Now the colleges are hiring I e Utah,
- 37:12Speaker 31: they hired a private equity firm who says, hey, we're
- 37:15Speaker 31: going to work on a B and C including real
- 37:17Speaker 31: estate and this and this, this, and we're going to
- 37:19Speaker 31: promise you five hundred million dollars. Well, it's costing all
- 37:22Speaker 31: kinds of college. But you know, college at Lake de
- 37:25Speaker 31: Barnes have got too heavy anyway. I mean, if you
- 37:27Speaker 31: if you go to a college website and look at
- 37:29Speaker 31: how many people an assistant to the video guy and
- 37:32Speaker 31: then a graduate assistant to the video guy, and then
- 37:35Speaker 31: you know their video department is forty strong or whatever. Yeah,
- 37:38Speaker 31: college departments have gotten a little crazy. We'll talk about
- 37:41Speaker 31: private equity when we have more time. But we'll get
- 37:43Speaker 31: into the private equity next week for sure.
- 37:47Speaker 6: And then there you go. And peoples in my ear
- 37:50Speaker 6: about going to war for profit. I mean, this is
- 37:52Speaker 6: this is a machine and guess what, our kids are
- 37:55Speaker 6: still graduating with less education than the high school kid
- 37:59Speaker 6: in Taiowa graduates.
- 38:01Speaker 19: In twenty twenty four, the American Heart Association celebrates one
- 38:05Speaker 19: hundred years of life saving service as the world's leading
- 38:08Speaker 19: nonprofit organization focused on heart and brain health. Heart disease
- 38:12Speaker 19: still kills more people in the United States each year
- 38:14Speaker 19: than all types of cancer combined, but more than half
- 38:17Speaker 19: of Americans are unaware of this fact, according to a
- 38:20Speaker 19: recent Harris Pole survey conducted for the American Heart Association. However,
- 38:25Speaker 19: the majority of heart disease is preventable. New research has
- 38:28Speaker 19: improved the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of heart disease and

- 44:54Speaker 6: That's it, just me and you and the transmitter in
- 45:00Speaker 6: between us at four three four eight eight two four
- 45:02Speaker 6: two one seven. Andy, thank you for hanging on to
- 45:05Speaker 6: say that. You were talking about coal and I wanted
- 45:08Speaker 6: you you were kind of we had to get you
- 45:10Speaker 6: to to where uh, you wanted to get to. So
- 45:13Speaker 6: you were talking about the the energy crisis in.
- 45:17Speaker 28: Seventy three and so at Yorktown that was all uh,
- 45:22Speaker 28: you know, imported oil and so they converted that coal,
- 45:28Speaker 28: and you know, we have plenty of coal, and so
- 45:30Speaker 28: it was it was actually used for a long time
- 45:34Speaker 28: as a.
- 45:34Speaker 2: Coal fire plant.
- 45:35Speaker 28: And then you know, these ninety people who think that
- 45:39Speaker 28: we can you know, put these wind farms out there
- 45:44Speaker 28: and solar panels and to replace that kind of an
- 45:48Speaker 28: energy production are just they're nuts, and and so that
- 45:53Speaker 28: that's what drives a lot of the prices.
- 45:57Speaker 6: Well, thank you, because we've got our next guest is
- 46:02Speaker 6: on the line, and I want to ask her about this.
- 46:04Speaker 6: She wants to help keep the US Senate in GOP
- 46:08Speaker 6: hands and and maybe even make them stronger. Her name
- 46:10Speaker 6: is Kim Farrington, and you probably haven't heard her name,
- 46:14Speaker 6: but they've been out there because these Senate races haven't
- 46:18Speaker 6: had to worry about all the redistricting hu ha that's
- 46:21Speaker 6: been going on, so they've they've started to flex their
- 46:24Speaker 6: muscle and start to get out there on the stump. Kim,
- 46:28Speaker 6: thank you for joining us. She wants to unseat uh
- 46:32Speaker 6: Mark Warner, who you know is still in the midst
- 46:35Speaker 6: of telling you he's the ranking member of the Intelligence Committee,
- 46:39Speaker 6: which you stopping after? Really and how do they pick that?
- 46:45Speaker 2: Kim?
- 46:45Speaker 6: How are you doing this morning? And thank you for
- 46:47Speaker 6: taking some time out with us.
- 46:50Speaker 34: Yeah, good in warning, I'm doing fantabulous.
- 46:52Speaker 6: How are you excellent? So talking about and we've been
- 46:56Speaker 6: talking about President Trump is sending millions of dollars to
- 46:59Speaker 6: try to reinvigorate coal, clean coal in the United States.
- 47:04Speaker 6: Virginia has a bunch of them, and you know we're
- 47:07Speaker 6: in the midst of a controversy over a power line
- 47:11Speaker 6: so that we can import more electricity, But we have
- 47:15Speaker 6: coal plants, we have natural gas plants that our electric
- 47:18Speaker 6: utilities have shuttered because we signed this suicide packed with
- 47:22Speaker 6: California ten years ago. You know, talk about what your
- 47:27Speaker 6: leadership in the Senate would do towards getting just your
- 47:31Speaker 6: state energy independent, never mind the country.
- 47:36Speaker 34: Right Well, I fully support what President Trump is doing.
- 47:39Speaker 34: I think coal is so important in coal production, so
- 47:43Speaker 34: I fully support his seven hundred million dollars that he
- 47:47Speaker 34: is putting forth toward that. If you look at the data,
- 47:53Speaker 34: coal and nuclear production energy is so much more efficient
- 47:58Speaker 34: than the wind far and the solar that the Democrats
- 48:03Speaker 34: and Mark Warner are talking about. So I fully am
- 48:07Speaker 34: behind President Trump's idea to support the coal production.
- 48:10Speaker 6: What do you have to do in a state that
- 48:13Speaker 6: you know, we we have enough Republicans to elect the governor,
- 48:16Speaker 6: so we have you know, there's obviously enough Republicans out
- 48:20Speaker 6: there to get her done. And even then there was
- 48:23Speaker 6: still in Glenn Youngkin's election, still forty percent of the
- 48:27Speaker 6: registered voters hadn't really been heard from in that race.
- 48:30Speaker 6: So how do you get those folks back at it
- 48:35Speaker 6: and into a polling place that they haven't been in
- 48:39Speaker 6: several times? Around this block for a guy like Mark Warner.
- 48:44Speaker 34: Right, that's a great question, and I'm already working on that.
- 48:50Speaker 34: Just yesterday, I was in Wise County at an event
- 48:55Speaker 34: where four hundred and fifty senior citizens and first responders
- 49:00Speaker 34: were in attendance. And I am engaging folks all over
- 49:06Speaker 34: the commonwealth. In fact, I'm doing a listening tour where
- 49:09Speaker 34: I have already put over forty eight thousand miles on
- 49:13Speaker 34: my car.
- 49:14Speaker 35: Just listen, Yeah, just listening.
- 49:18Speaker 34: To all the residents and voters across Virginia. And what
- 49:23Speaker 34: I find is, as I'm getting out to events like
- 49:26Speaker 34: the one I was in just yesterday, they are so
- 49:30Speaker 34: excited to have me out there listening to them, listening
- 49:33Speaker 34: to their issues. And then not only do I listen
- 49:37Speaker 34: to their issues, when I come back to their areas
- 49:41Speaker 34: and I ask them about what they think of my
- 49:45Speaker 34: suggested resolution to their issues, they are even more engaged
- 49:50Speaker 34: because they know that I listened and that I'm also
- 49:54Speaker 34: asking their opinion on my recommended approach after listening to them.
- 50:00Speaker 34: I'm just getting out and engaging folks, and that's how
- 50:04Speaker 34: I'm going to win. It's going to come down to votes,
- 50:07Speaker 34: and I am engaging people and energizing people across the Commonwealth,
- 50:13Speaker 34: and I'm hoping that that gets them out to vote,
- 50:15Speaker 34: unlike they've done the last few elections.
- 50:19Speaker 6: Well, Kim, and let me give your website so that
- 50:22Speaker 6: people can visit you if if such is the case, Kim,
- 50:26Speaker 6: for Virginia dot com. It's spelled out fo R, because
- 50:30Speaker 6: that's that's the debate in the world is is it
- 50:32Speaker 6: with a number or spelled out? But Kim, one of
- 50:36Speaker 6: the questions, I don't know if you hear this, I
- 50:38Speaker 6: get it a lot of times, is what do we
- 50:40Speaker 6: do about John Thune? You know, it's funny. We used
- 50:43Speaker 6: to say what do we do about Mitch McConnell, and
- 50:45Speaker 6: then we got John Thune, and now it's what do
- 50:48Speaker 6: we do about John Thune? What what do you view
- 50:52Speaker 6: as some of the issues that we've had in getting
- 50:56Speaker 6: the Senate moving, you know forward with pro America, pro
- 51:02Speaker 6: economic freedom, pro economic prosperity kind of agenda that it
- 51:09Speaker 6: just doesn't seem to get to the floor anymore in
- 51:11Speaker 6: the Senate.
- 51:15Speaker 10: Right.
- 51:15Speaker 35: That's a good point, and I'd say it takes it's
- 51:20Speaker 35: going to take work within the party, and I know
- 51:24Speaker 35: that Trump is a strong leader and I know he
- 51:27Speaker 35: will work with the Senate to make things happen.
- 51:32Speaker 34: But I think it's important that we focus on you know,
- 51:36Speaker 34: we'll always have disagreements, but we need to work through
- 51:40Speaker 34: those disagreements quickly and move forward.
- 51:44Speaker 35: And that's what needs to be done.
- 51:46Speaker 34: And that's what I look forward to doing, is being
- 51:48Speaker 34: part of that looking forward approach and getting people to
- 51:53Speaker 34: work together. When I'm elected the US.
- 51:55Speaker 6: Senate, Kim Farrington is looking to unsee Mark Warner, who
- 52:00Speaker 6: just seems like he was born there. People forget that
- 52:03Speaker 6: he made his money in heavily government regulated industry cell phones,
- 52:08Speaker 6: and then cashed then those chips and went into the
- 52:12Speaker 6: real profit making agenda of being in Congress. Kim, what
- 52:18Speaker 6: is I guess the point of my question was, would
- 52:22Speaker 6: you support keeping John Thune in leadership in the Senate?
- 52:28Speaker 34: Well, like I've done with throughout my career in the
- 52:33Speaker 34: federal service. I spent thirty three years in federal government,
- 52:37Speaker 34: which I might add is more than double or almost double,
- 52:42Speaker 34: what Mark Warner's experienced period has been.
- 52:46Speaker 6: Although I'll tell you what, let's stick a pin in
- 52:48Speaker 6: that and we'll get it in a second.
- 52:51Speaker 19: Much of neck and spinal pain is caused by the
- 52:53Speaker 19: compression of spinal nerves. According to doctor Jeff Fisher, an Irvine,
- 52:57Speaker 19: California based chiropractor with more than three thirty years of experience,
- 53:01Speaker 19: this compression can stem from a chronic condition, acute injury,
- 53:05Speaker 19: or simply aging. Traction is the most effective way to relax, stretch,
- 53:09Speaker 19: and decompress the spine and surrounding muscles and ligaments of
- 53:12Speaker 19: the neck and back. Doctor Fisher explains his inventions. The
- 53:16Speaker 19: Fisher Traction Neck Device and Fisher Traction Low Back Device
- 53:20Speaker 19: safely separates bones to eliminate pain and restore function so
- 53:24Speaker 19: the body can heal naturally. The Fisher Traction devices are
- 53:27Speaker 19: designed to restore the natural curves of the neck and
- 53:30Speaker 19: back and gently induce hydration and motion into the spine
- 53:33Speaker 19: with the use of a release strap. The devices are
- 53:36Speaker 19: convenient and easy to use in the comfort of your home,
- 53:38Speaker 19: and Doctor Fisher's series of YouTube videos provides helpful videos
- 53:42Speaker 19: and detailed instructions. For more information, visit Fishertraction dot com.
