• 2:21
  Speaker 1: running for Secretary of State, Robert Sprague returns to the
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: fifty five Case Morning Show to talk about voter ID
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: on the ballot in Ohio plus cleaning off voter rolls.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: It's on the ballot to become a constitutional amendment. Yeah,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: you have voter ID in the state of Ohio. It's
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: already a law. Question is can a future administration maybe
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: some l saied Kami Marxist will get elected in the
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: state of Ohio and then they change the law. If
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: it's part of the constitution, well you'll have to get
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: about initiative. You'll have to change the Ohio Constitution and
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: go over the whole process all over again again. I
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: have no problem memorializing that in the Ohio Constitution. That's
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: what's going on right now, plus cleaning out the voter rolls.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Do we have a clean guaranteed we have confidence in
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: the election in the Ohio voter role list Robert Spragg
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: on that topic as well. Eight oh five Fall by
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Judge Ninapolitano. Yeah, it's been going on for administration after
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: administration after administration. I know, you know it. Not a
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: huge fan of Donald Trump, Judge Enna Polaitano, but not
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: a huge fan of war and a fan of the Constitution,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: which is why I love having him on. You know,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: if you're going to declare war, we've got a mechanism
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: for that called congressional action. If you want to look
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: at the War Powers Resolution from the early nineteen seventies,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: you can also put that in there in factor that
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: in the equation, which also requires some measure of congressional action.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: We find ourselves in a bit of a quagmire here
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: with your own situation. So but in today's column and
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: it comes out midnight tonight, I get it early. We
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: are in a perpetual state of unilateral warfare waged by presidents,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: been going on ever since World War Two concluded. Start
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: with the Korean quote unquote conflict police action. That's how
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: they got away from that. What an Rwellian reality. It's
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: not war, it's a police action. Oh okay, whatever, Cheryl Pop.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Honor Flight, Try State, Cheryl Pops, She's awesome. Honor Flight,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Try State is awesome. And we've got an announcement we're
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: gonna hear from Cheryl Pop at eight forty five about
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: the honor flight. And tomorrow we'll hear from Congressman Warren Davidson. Yeah,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: projected winner in the Michigan primary. Yep, Abdul l Siad
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: comedy socialist. I think he's a bit of an anti
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: semi too. If I recall my reading the news work
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: correctly crazy and without alternate Jason Riley, calumnist Wall Street Journal,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: and why not a whole bunch of articles about the
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: in defense of capitalism, And here's where we find ourselves today.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: And to Ernie who was of me for being critical
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: of Donald Trump the other day screaming at oil companies
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: telling them that they make too much money. Doesn't that
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: sound like a playbook out of the socialist mantra? It is? Yeah,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden screamed with the oil companies, you're making too
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: much profit. What's too much? Anyway? Jason Riley, Let's dive
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: on into the whole thing. He writes, when Bernie Sanders
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: entered Congress in nineteen ninety one, Democrats balked at the
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: caucusing with him. Giving socialism's poor record of the United States,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: who could blame him during its heyday. In the first part,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: of the twentieth century. The Socialist Party of America nominated
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: labor leader Eugene Debs for president five times. He never
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: won a single state. Ronald Reagan had been elected in
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: nineteen eighty and re elected by a landslide in nineteen
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: eighty four on a platform that promised to restrain expansion
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: of the welfare state and restrict government interference with the
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: free market. Bernie Sanders, who ran as an independent, was
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: the only was only the third Socialist ever elected to
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: the House, and the one preceding him left office in
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: nineteen twenty nine. More recently, mister Sanders has drawn sizable
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: crowds to his rallies and is viewed as something of
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: a king maker in the Democratic Party. Candidates backed by
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: the Democrats Socialists of America, the largest socialist political organization
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: in the country, have notched state and local victories in Colorado, Georgia, Kentucky,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: and New York. On the ballot of Michigan and I'll
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: go back to El Saied, who is the predicted winner
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: Missouri as walls Wisconsin. Two of the most popular and
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: influential figures in the Democratic Party in Europe, Representative Alexander
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Ocasio Cortes and Mayor Zorhan Ndami are members of the DSA,
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: and no one will be surprised if AOC runs for
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: president in twenty twenty eight. The main streaming of socialism
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: also appears in polling, which shows that people farthest to
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: the left tend to be younger. A K two Institute
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: survey published last year found that sixty two percent of
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: adults under thirty hold a favorable view of socialism. Nor
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: is the trend limited Democrats pulling from an Echelon report
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: the last months that while older Democrats are split on
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: socialism and younger Democrats are very much in favor. It's
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: also worth noting that socialist democracy and socialism elicit less
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: steadfast unfavorable views among younger Republicans compared to their role
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: to older fellow partisans. There's that creeping socialism. Young people
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: are by definition less experienced and by nature more idealistic.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: This is my old mantra and not my phrase. But
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: he who is not from the left as a youth
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: has no heart. He who is not from the right
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: as an adult has no brain. There it is less experienced,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: more idealistic. That's young people. They don't have the life
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: experience to make appropriate assessments on what's good for him
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: and what's not. Anyway, Sorry for the interjection there, Jason Riley,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Let me jump back to your words. Hence, the appeal
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: of a political system that seeks to manufacture equal outcomes
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: through central planning and government redistribution has a certain logic
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: about it. Historically, socialism's appeal has been especially notable among
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: more educated and more affluent young people. Notably, when Karl
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: Marx and Friedrich Ingels published a communist manifesto in eighteen
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: forty eight, Marx was twenty nine years old. Engles twenty seven.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Marx's father was a successful lawyer. Tell me this doesn't
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: ring familiar? Successful lawyer. The family owned vineyards and rental
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: properties and employed multiple servants. Marx attend of the University
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: of Bond, where he spent more time drinking than studying.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: After a year, his father transferred him to the University
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: of Berlin, where he continued to rack up debts for
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: his family to pay off, and, according to one biographer,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: became a bohemian student who merely regarded the university as
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: his camping ground. Sound familiar. Engles came from an even
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: wealthier family. His father was part owner of the textile
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: factories in Germany and England. Throughout their twenties, both men
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: lived off allowances and inheritances from their families Zoran mom dahmy.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: At thirty, Engles finally took a job at one of
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: his father's companies, where he complained that quote, I've now
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: got to be at the office no later than ten
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: in the morning. Close quote. He eventually made enough money
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: to retire at age fifty and support himself and Karl
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Marx for the rest of their lives. Economist Thomas Soul
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: brilliant man. I was lucky enough to actually have a
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: conversation with that man anyway, he wrote. Quote. The Communist Manifesto,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: written by two bright and articulate young men, without responsibility
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: even for their own livelihoods, much less for the social
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: consequences of their vision, has had a special appeal for
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: successive generations of the same kinds of people. The offspring
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: of privilege have dominated the leadership of Marxist movements from
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: the days of Marx and Engles, through Lenin Mao Castro
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: and Ho Chi Minh and their lesser counterparts around the world,
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: and down through history. It's worn, mom, dammy. One problem
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Republicans face this year's midterm election is the socialist label
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: has lost its sting. I've often interjecting again over Jason
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Rowley's commentary pointed to the fall of the Soviet Union
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: as one of the reasons for this. We had a
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: foil we could compare capitalism to the long bread lines
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: of the Soviet Union. They were a global power, a
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: nuclear power. We feared them and their nuclear weapons. This
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: is one of the reasons we ramped up the military
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: industrial complex to compete with the Soviet Union. Oh my god,
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: they're there. They're taking over the world. Vietnam. We got
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: to go in and stop the red spread. Oh my god. Right,
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: constantly looking at that threat and constantly evaluating our economy
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: versus the breadlines and the terrible realities of the Soviet Union.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: Once that disappeared, the fall of Berlin Wall, we had
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: no moral compass anymore to pears. That's my thoughts and
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: comments on the beginning of, rather the end of the
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: label socialism being toxic for American politicians. What you want
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: to be a commy point anyway, back go to riling voters.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Maybe because the socialist labels lost its sting. Going back
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: to the point, voters may be less likely to associate
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: central planning with lost freedom than with Scannonavia in the
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: nineteen seventies, even though countries like Sweden have been privatizing
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: key industries and reducing welfare benefits more than thirty years.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: Another challenge for GOP populists. I think I know who
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: Jason Rally's referring to when he says GOP populist is
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: drawing sharp policy on trast with the progressive left the
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Trump administration. Trump administration supports trade protectionism and price controls
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: on pharmaceuticals, and the federal government has taken significant ownership
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: stakes and major US companies. This is precisely the type
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: of market interference that Republicans once denounced and democratic socialists
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: wholeheartedly embrace. And here we go to my critic and
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: the listening audience, Ernie, who took well, he was angry
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: with me for mentioning that, you know, Joe Biden was
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: pissed off at the oil companies for making too much profit.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: How much is too much? That's a page in the
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: socialist class warfare playbook, isn't it? Trump told reporters the
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: US oil companies are making too much money on Monday,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: and as Jason Riley concludes, he took the words right
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: out of Bernie's mouth. Five eighteen fifty five KRC DE

• 13:28
  Speaker 1: some Lana's Blueberry Pie ice cream at Graters Cure cancer
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: and eat in an excuse to eat wonderful ice cream.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: And thank you to my wife who was listening to
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: me talking about the cones for the cure. Grace deserge
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: in here yesterday talking about it and trying to get
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: you out to Greater's ice Cream, which I know you
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: want to do.
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: Anyway.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: You get some Elaea's Blueberry Pie ice cream. A slice
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: of that is going to purchase, is going to go
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: to cure cancer. And what amazing, amazing inroads they've made
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: in the name of trying to cure pediatric brain cancer.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: The first organization out there to ever dedicate mass of dollars,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: thanks to you and good people like Greaters as being
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: a sponsor of the organization, millions forty four million dollars
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: actually went out into the world and have done clinical
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: trials on something that nobody was doing any research on
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: what used to be a death sentence, a nine month
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: lifespan after diagnosis. Have got one beautiful young lady who's
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: received three of the treatments thanks to Cure Starts now
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: she's eight years old after having been diagnosed with pediatric
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: brain cancer. I believe at the age of two, that
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: is an amazing increase in lifespan. Doing God's work by
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: eating Elaina's Blueberry Pie ice cream. And again a shout
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: out to Greaters doing God's work by committing resources and
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: profits to a wonderful charity. Anyway, one of the big
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: issues going on here in the state of Ohio a
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: concern for Republicans coming up as we fast approach November.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: We're neck and neck the Republicans and the Democrats. We
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: generally speaking politically with the Democrats. Of course, you've got
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: that representative Max Miller issue going on a reliable, hard
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: far right district. He's got some marital problems with Bernie
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: Marino's daughter, his ex wife of Maxi Miller. We talked
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: about that yesterday. Is that going to cause him to
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: lose the race. He's getting some pressure to pull out
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: of the race. They've got some backup candidates potentially, but
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: that's why the race is neck and neck. Otherwise Miller
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: would be way ahead. There's one to worry about. And
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: we also have the obviously the Brown Housted race shared
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: Brown out raised John Houston so far nearly three to
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: one in terms of donations, and there's going to be
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: huge money flowing into that from all the.
• 15:43
  Speaker 6: Four corners of the world.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: And why well, the Republicans have pointed out, like so
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: many other races, a potent line of attack against Houstad.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: Calling him the face of data centers in Ohio is
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: something Tom's Alastowski's talking about yesterday. Republicans need to get
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: out in front of this data center argument. They're here.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: The question is whether we benefit from him or not.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: And then you got Viva Ramaswamy neck and neck with
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: any acting, which just blows my mind again. Another reason
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: Ramaswamy facing backlash from some conservatives over his support for
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: developing data centers for artificial intelligence. He recently got heckled
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: at a libertarian conference. They heckled him right off the stage.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: That concerns and bothers me, So is the answer. Legislation.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: Last week heron Ohio two Republicans House Bill nine eighty three,
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: the Data Center Accountability and Citizen Protection Act, sponsored by
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: Representative Jennifer Gross and Michelle Tesca, Republicans. Gross said the
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: communities need the right and they should have the voice
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: to be able to tell their elected officials and have
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: a choice as to whether data centers come in their backyard.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: Sounds plausible, sounds right, doesn't it? You should have a
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: choice In that the bill would require voter a pro
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: before any large scale data center is built or expanded.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: It'll also ban future local taxing centers, force operators generate
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: their own electricity, require full public disclosure of chemicals using
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: the cooling systems. I don't even a problem with the
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: disclosure of chemicals. They probably legislation on the books already
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: to require that generate on electricity. I like the idea
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: of that question is, will the federal government get the
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: hell out of our way? Assuming Ohio greses the skids
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: to allow data centers to generate their own electricity. Again,
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: small modular reactors, they're right there. We could grab them
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: off the shelf, but sadly the regulatory environment prevents that
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: from happening. But require a voter approval on this one
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: singular issue. I just have to note we live in
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: a country and state that is based upon representative democracy.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: We don't have a direct democracy here because if we did,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: as many people have observed over the years, the well,
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: everything would screech to a grinding halt. If every single
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: piece of legislation had to be thumb up or thumbed
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: down by the voters we would have, we would come
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: to a screeching halt. Or, as is always the case,
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: you and I would all be voting to have stuff
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: and things given to us for quote unquote free. That's
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: when the system collapses on itself. We have representatives are
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: supposed to be cooler in their thinking process. They're supposed
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: to be sort of contemplative and not do knee jerk
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: reactions and try to do what's best for society at large. Well,
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: isn't that why we elect officials to make decisions based
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: upon all matters, including data centers. I I just scratched
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: my head over this. Greg Lansman already introduced three bills
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: on a federal level on data centers. One forces the
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: data centers to pay for everything. According to Landsman's words,
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: he said, there's no reason in our tax pay should
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: pay for anything for this. Well, I could make that
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: argument for literally everything. If you want to build a business,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: come on in. Don't expect the taxpayers to support it
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: and prop it up. Okay, Second, he said, is getting
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: rid of these NDAs non disclosure agreement. Everything should be
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: done publicly. Again, I have no problem with the concept. Third,
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: the most recent bill, he says, requires there to be
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: a national standard in terms of the environmental impact. There
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: you go, new regulations heap down on the entire world.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: One size never fits all, and yet there is Greg
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: Landsman advocating for it national standards. I'll go back to
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: my criticism of the overburdensome regulatory environment we face when
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: we're trying to deal with the concept of AI facilities
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: generating their own electricity. Feel free to give me a call.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: I got local stories coming up. It is five point
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: twenty eight right now, fifty five k c DE talk
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: station at the top. Ten thirty minutes costs the hour
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: we get to the bottom. Yeah, that's right, High Green Brewery.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: Listen for lunch today. Hope to see you there. Over
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: the phones. We got a couple of callers online, Tom
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: hold on because New Hampshire Gary beat you out in
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: terms of timing. Gary, welcome back to the Morning Show.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: Happy Wednesday, sir.
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: How you doing. I'm just going to knock this real quick.
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: You know you're really in for the small nuclear reactors.
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: And I'm here to tell you I'm a thirty thirty
• 20:23
  Speaker 5: I did the military thing for thirty years, and I
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: was also a federal employee for twenty years. And I'm
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: here to tell you I know about bureaucracy, and I
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: know about politics, especially in Ohio. Wasn't there a big
• 20:41
  Speaker 5: scandal about nuclear power and whole bunch politicians that went
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: to prison.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: For the Yeah, I call a householder's name coming up
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: in that scandal. And Gary, Yeah, you're right, and.
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: Nobody's going to let anything happen for the benefit of
• 20:59
  Speaker 5: the people, going to wait until they can increase their
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: own dirty little palms. This works as well in government
• 21:06
  Speaker 5: as it does in the military, as it does in
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: the politic for you know politics. And they're not going
• 21:14
  Speaker 5: to let these reactors go out unless they get their
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: palms grease. And you know what do you think do
• 21:21
  Speaker 5: you think they're in favor of these small, little nuclear reactors.
• 21:25
  Speaker 5: No way they're going to be happy. Oh, paycheck goes.
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: It's possible that they maybe ravenously in favor of them,
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: to the extent they can find great profitability in using them. Otherwise,
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: status quo works for them because they basically haven't affected
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: monopoly over power, don't they.
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: I especially if they they the makers of the data
• 21:49
  Speaker 5: center bring in their own and you can bet they're
• 21:51
  Speaker 5: not going to be bringing in too, They're going to
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: be bringing in their own brands.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: See this is why, this is why capitalism works. Why
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: would small modular reactors be invented? Why because they're better
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: than the massive nuclear actors that were used to be
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: They used to build back in the seventies. You know,
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: three Mile Island, soyle Gee. What if we can make
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: them a lot, smaller, with no waste, and could be
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: conveniently moved around from place to place. Wouldn't that be
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: a wonderful benefit to society, say capitalists, what's stopping them
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: from coming out into the world government? Right, Gary?
• 22:22
  Speaker 5: Oh no, I can't I can't wait. We'll see. I
• 22:25
  Speaker 5: got my feet up on the autom and right now
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: and I'm chewing my popcorn. We'll see how long it takes.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: Keep your fingers crossed with all of the massive corporate
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: wealth that wants them. For example, how do you continue
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: profitability in artificial intelligence without data centers? How do you
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: have data centers without the ability to generate your own
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: power because states mandated because of legislation. Well, you grease
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: the skids, allow small modular reactors to come online, and
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: then the problem is solved. So now you've finally got
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: billions and billions of capital from data center focused companies
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: that can probably fight the battle against the power companies
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: who enjoy their current monopoly over power generation. Keep your
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: popcorn out, Gary, The battle is being waged right now,
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: and I'm betting that the data center profitability side of
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: the equation ultimately wins. Why because small modular reactors don't
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: produce carbon dioxide.
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: Aha.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: They are easy, convenient, they are comparatively inexpensive, and they
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: solve all of our problems in terms of electricity generation,
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: a multitude of problems solved by one capitalist prompted invention.
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: Society demands carbon free production of power, say the global
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: warming freaks, primarily because they're all a bunch of socialists
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: who want to end the idea of consumption. The answer
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: from capitalism carbon free abundant power on a tiny, tiny
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: platform that is almost bulletproof when you're dealing with forms
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: of criticism against it. Tom, I see you on the line.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: I thank you for calling, but we're out of time
• 24:06

  Speaker 1: KRSD talk station, remember fifty five KRC dot iHeart dot
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: com where you find the blog page podcast page. You
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: didn't get a chance to listen to Tom Zalastowski. We
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: people can mention dot org talking about the need to
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: get out and vote in November. Tom says, I don't
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: care what stripe the Republican is, You better damn well
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: vote for any Republican over a Democrat, because Democrats are
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: all bunch of basically communists, boiling it down an entire
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: conversation into one sentence anyway, And that's kind of how
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: I read it yesterday. But it is an important point
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: to make. Noting in as I go back to the
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: stack of stupid the Michigan state primary results, apparently I
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: have Abdul l Sayed as the projected winner of the
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: Michigan Democrat primary. Huh, how about that? It's neck and
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: neck with Haley Stevens, but Abdul l sayad emerging as
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: the victor, and it looks like by a one slightly
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: less than one percentage point. That's how important it is
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: to get out and vote. If you're a Democrat and
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: you don't like communists invading your party, you get out
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: and vote right hopefully, abdul l sayed, getting the nomination
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: in Michigan will help ensure the victory for Mike Rogers,
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: the Republican. There's your choices right there. Oh, anyway, back
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: over the stack of stupid, Ohio man was shot by
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: the father of an eleven year old girl that he
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: is accused of has now been indicted from a multiple
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: felony counts. Dad's out there. What would you do? Diego
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: Montoya Gonzalez. He's twenty years old, now indicted on five
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: counts of pandering sexually oriented material involving a minor, two
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: counts of rape, and one kind of obstructing official business.
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: This according to the court records. He pleaded not guilty
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: in raiment in Franklin County Common Police Court the other day.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: What happened well on July fifteenth, after the girl's mom
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: reached out to authorities after discovering a video on her
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: daughter's iPhone that seemed to indicate sexual conduct. At the
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: next day, Dad's out there. The girl's father allegedly lured
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: Montoya Gonzalez to their home by pretending to be his
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: daughter on TikTok. Prosecutors said that the girl's father claimed
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: he planned to beat up Montoya Gonzalez and then notify police,
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: but believed he saw the twenty year old re for
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: a weapon, which prompted him to open fire. Montoya Gonzales
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: allegedly shot twice. One neighbor speaking with local news said
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: couldn't believe it, but she understood it. I can see
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: why he went after him. I'm not saying it's right,
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: but at least makes some sense. It wasn't a senseless thing.
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: Let's see here, a twenty year old is accused of
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: and you got pretty good evidence that he raped your
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: eleven year old daughter. You have the ability to lure
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: him over to your place.
• 31:34
  Speaker 8: Huh.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: That's tempting, isn't it. And I will echo the sentiments
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: of the neighbor. I'm not saying it's right, but it
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: makes sense.
• 31:49
  Speaker 5: Now. Who can argue with that? Uh huh.
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: That I guess if you caught him in the act,
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: he could have argued it was a you know, in
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: emotional reaction. It was a crime of passion. There was
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: no intent to commit murder. But if you plan it
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: ahead of time, I think they may very well have
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: you dead to rights on that allegation or charge that
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: you certainly would be charged with. And there's out there's
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: no comment in the article about the father being charged yet,
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: but I certainly I assure you that it will happen anyway.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: Florida mom watching TikTok videos we go to a tee.
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: Tiana and Norman arrested after police found her six month
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: old son, Jeremiah Peters, unresponsive inside their home about eleven
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: forty pm late June, after he had repeatedly been slammed
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: on the ground earlier in the day. This corned the
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: police chief, Sammy Taylor. Norman initially told police and conflicting
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: explanations about her son. Anyway, he died less than an
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: hour after he was transported to the local hospital. No
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: clear evidence of injuries on the child ac corned the police,
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: except for the left thigh mark, which Norman first told
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: police was from putting him into bathwater that was too hot.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: When officers spoke to Norman at the scenes, She relayed
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: that she had placed Jeremiah in a bed and she
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: went to prepare for a bottle. Upon returning, she found
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: he had fallen off the bed onto the tile floor.
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: Her story changed the investigator's interview a second time. She
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: claimed that either she or her one year old child
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: may have accidentally rolled onto Jeremiah while the three of
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: them were sleeping in bed. Story number two. An autopsy
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: presented a different story. Mark found of the infants thigh
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: was from a more significant thermal event, not bathwater. He
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: also sustained other injuries that were more severe than following
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: once off a twenty two inch tall bed. Mom ultimately
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: came cleaning after being confronted with the autopsy findings. Admitted
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: that the baby fell three times that day, including once
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: when she threw him.
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: Well.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: Ms Norman said she accidentally dropped the child onto the
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: floor while reaching for a remote control that the child
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: struck his head around nine o'clock in the morning. Rather
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: than seeking medical attention, she researched injury symptoms on her
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: phone and decided to monitor him home. Monitor him at home.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: A little while later, Jeremiah fell face first out of
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: the floor. After the one year old climbed into his
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: rocking bassinet caused it to tip over. That's what Norman
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: told police. About one pm. The fed, fed up mom
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: intentionally tossed or threw the child into a playpen from
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: a standing position from several feet away, please said, I
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: think that's probably when the significant injury occurred. Baby hit
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: its back and head on the plate pen's unpadded floor.
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: Norman still didn't seek help. Stead she frantically Google search
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: a series of questions including baby feels cold, Baby has concussion?
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: Baby has concussion? Is it emergency? That's when she went
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: back to watching TikTok videos for a couple hours and
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: actually was surfing porn for several hours before ultimately getting
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: in touch with authorities. We'll just go ahead and add
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: her to the Big Stution of the Universe award from
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: we gave earlier five fifty seven. Right now fifty five

  Speaker 1: I'll be talking about the ad campaign. AFP's launch a
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: multi million dollar ad campaign and supported John Houston over
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: Shared Brown. Which race is neck and neck? I mentioned
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: in the last hour the idea that we have the
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: gubernatorial race here in Ohio, that particular race in Ohio
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: neck and neck. It's just it's concerning for me anyway.
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: Got a couple of months fair things out though, don't we,
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: But notably the Michigan state primary results kind of in
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: a predicted winner. Anyway, it hasn't been officially established that
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: Abdul l si Ed's beaten Haley Stevens by so less
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: than one percentage point, and now we'll be running for
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: governor state of Michigan, hard leftist. Another victory for the
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: Democratic Socialist of America right there. I mean that's whom
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: he gets elected. Of course, there's the argument, and I'm
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: on the side of this argument that Mike Rodgers, the
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: Republican nominee, has now a better chance of winning against
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: a communist socialist. Maybe Helly Stevens would have run a
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: better race against Mike Rodgers. I don't know, but in
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: the final analysis, enough people wanted Abdul l Sied to
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: be the Democrat nominee. In the state of Michigan. Seven
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: hundred and thirty five thousand plus people voted for that
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: guy versus a just slightly smaller percentage voting for Haley Stevens.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: The third Party Mallory mcmorro only got sixty thousand, But
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: there's that many out there, growing concept, growing phenomenon. Anyhow,
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: Donald O'Neil on the Houston Brown Ray we getting more
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: into the current races in Hi because Robert Spray's going
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: to join us current treasure of the House state running
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: for Secretary of State. We're talking about voter idea in
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: the ballot in Ohio to establish it as a constitutional
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: obligation so you can't change the law down the road. Yes,
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: we have voter id The idea of incorporating into the
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: constitution kind of makes sense, cleaning out of the voter rolls,
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: getting people dead, people off the rolls. We'll find out
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: how solid the numbers are here in Ohio in terms
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: of the integrity of the vote again eight oh five
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: with Robert Sprague, preceded by Steve Belzo. Don't want to
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: overlook the Claremont County Veteran services. Steve Belzo veteran financial
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: assistance program is our topic today with Steve Yes, my
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: veteran friend. If you're in Claremont County, Dave assistance program.
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: But it's not just Claremont County. Steve will be in
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: at seven forty Judge Jennita Paulatano fast forwarding after Robert
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: Sprague the eight thirty the normalcy of American wars as
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: we struggle to deal with the whole concept of the
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: Iranian situation just one of a multitude of things that
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: have happened post World War Two involving presidents unilaterally launching
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: military actions without Congress sesational approval or authority. You can
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: run into problems when that happens, as we've watched over history. Anyway,
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: Cheryl pop from Honor Flight tri state they have an announcement.
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: They want to be Honor Flight folks do. And Cheryl
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: prop as representative of Honor Flight, will join us at
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: seven or eight forty five. Rather to talk about the
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: announcement tomorrow the morning show Congressman Warren Davidson, and of
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: course I heart media aviation expert Jay Rattliffe. I want
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: to call I'd love to hear from you. Five one, three, seven,
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: three talk pound five fifty on at and T phones.
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: I was there's a lot of parallels that can be
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: drawn and a lot of lessons that can be learned.
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: As we watched the North African city, Spain's property. It's
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: the city of Suta, the one that just got invaded
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: by the Moroccans in concentrated fashion. We can look at
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: the Biden administrations four years of open borders and see
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: it unfold over a matter of a couple of days
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: and start asking ourselves questions. Thank god Donald Trump got
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: elected president. Look what happens a new administration and the
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: end period, end of story, full stop of open borders. No,
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: you didn't have to change the law, which was Biden's
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: argument all along. I'm like, oh, we got a problem
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: on the border. We need to change the law. We
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: need to change law. Now, you need to enforce the
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: laws that are on the books. Of course, that flies
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: in the face of the democratics' long term political strategy is,
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: let's see, we aren't having a lot of babies here
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: in the country. Everybody's leaving our big blue states. We
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: need to replace the voters who fled the big blue
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: states because they're too damn expensive and overly regulatory. Look,
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: they're fleeing to the red states. We need more people.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: How do you get replacement population? Well, how about the unchecked,
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: unregulated flow of humanity over the southern border. There's new people.
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: They'll be counted in the census. We'll retain the power
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: we have. The hell with voter id that might be
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: an impediment to our relying on these folks to whilst
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: keep our positions in government. Well, let's look over to Suda,
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: the North African city that Spain is response before, which
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: was overrun by Moroccans. About widely reported between seventy and
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: eight eighty thousand people flowing over the border in a
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: matter of a moment's time. What happened It was fueled
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: by criminal smuggling networks and disinformation spread through social media.
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: Spanish authorities now examining whether known criminals are suspected jihadists
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: exploited the scale and disorder of the crossing to enter
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: Suta undetected. Hmm. Lots of concerns about the known Godaways
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: over our southern border, all the military age men, many
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: of them of Chinese descent. How is it that Chinese
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: got from China over to the southern border. Is there
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: any concern that military aged Chinese men were able to
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: make that journey given the control the Chinese Communists or
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: the Chinese Communist Party has over its population. Did they
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: have any assistance from the CCP and getting across the
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: southern border, or any terrorists among those known Godaways? A
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: questions that we were asking ourselves. It just didn't hit
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: us all at once, considering what's going on in Suita
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: eighty thousand, let's say people coming over a matter of
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: a day or two. If you had a million people
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: coming over the southern border in a matter of a
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: day or two during the Biden administration, I imagine the
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: press might have reported on it. But when you know
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: comparatively small numbers, say thousands are coming over the border
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: every day, there's nothing to see here. There's no risk
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: to the United States. It was reported locally over than Suta.
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: Authorities searching for known criminals and possible Jihadis who've been
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: among the thousands across the border in Suda. Genuine infiltration
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: risks are express concerns from the Spanish government. News reported
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: that heightened that the concern was heightened because Suta is
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: close in close proximity to a Moroccan border town that
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: has figured in previous GIE hottest recruiting investing investigations, Thoria's
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: who previously dismantled extremist cells operating from this nearby city
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: hunt while hundreds of people from the northern Moroccan area
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: traveled to join ISIS and other terrorist groups in Syria.
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: They're Muslim fundamentalists, lots and lots of them concentrated right
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: next to suit, which is Spanish. Let's see, how do
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: we get into the European Union, how do we infiltrate
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: the European Union? Run across the border in Suda and
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: just say hey, the Spanish government is wide open in
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: terms of immigration. They embrace the concept of immigration. They've
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: naturalized a whole bunch of people who are otherwise illegally
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: in the country because well, Spain's a leftists organ leftists administration,
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: and also because their population isn't replacing itself, and Spain's
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: current government believes they need immigration replacement population to keep
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: their economy going. Sound familiar, huh? They say the crisis
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: is creating an opening for Islamist movements seeking to weaken
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: confidence in Morocco's government. According to a research fell at
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: the Hudson Institute, a guy named Zided Rabua. He said
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: that Islamis have spent years portraying the monarchy in Morocco
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: as overly secular and pro western, attacking its relationship in
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: the United States and Israel, and encouraging the belief that
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: young Moroccans have little future at home. Substitute Morocco as
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: a country and put the United States in there. Does
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: it sound familiar to and rather than a well, rather
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: than Islamic terrorism, which is still part of the concern
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: we have here in the United States that terrorists might
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: have been among those that came over our southern border.
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: You also have this infiltration of blank and communists who
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: are keep telling you and leftists generally speaking, supporting this
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: whole communist revolution going on here that the United States
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: well presents you young people with little future none. It's
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: a hopeless proposition. We need to embrace a new way.
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: It's socialism, and I'm sure that they've convinced a lot
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: of young people that maybe Islamic fundamentalism is the right
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: way to go. Anyway, when you wear down and telp
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: young people that they have no future, bad people can
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: make inroads. That's what's going on there and it's what's
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: going on here anyway, this research felt. The Hudson Institute
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: also wrote, Islama's voices have promoted an idealized image of
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: Europe as a place where prosperity and legal status can
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: be easily obtained. Note any similarities there, and I will
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: argue that the EU represents a much easier opportunity for
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: someone to sneak in because they just have open borders.
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: Look at what has happened there. There are a few
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: steps ahead of us and allowing this unchecked, unregulated flow
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: of humanity into the various countries and their national identities
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: have been destroyed. Yay, screams the leftist, those damn eurocentric
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: westernized folks and their success economically. And then you couple
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: in the extensive online mobilization campaign. Someone wrote CCP after
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: that statement in the article about the Moroccan infiltration into
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: Suta yep. Much like getting young people to do a
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: street shutdown, go online, spread the word that the border
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: is open, that you are welcome into the European Union.
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: All you need to do is go to Suda and
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: you have reached the finish line. That's not accurate from
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: a legal perspective, but that's what's been festering online. That's
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: the word that got promoted online among these various groups,
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: some of them have an invested interest in while overrunning
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: the European Union with Islamic fundamentalism. There you go, circulated online,
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: sound familiar, practical information about roots and how to get in,
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: meeting points, recommended crossing times. That happened here too. A
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: report hasimated the content generated more than one point or
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: eleven million people, rather eleven million potential impressions through posts, videos,
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: comments and interactions. This is the disinformation campaign online. The
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: message got through, word was spread and circulated, which is
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: how you end up getting about eighty thousand people to
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: show up on one day and run in and overrun
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: the border authorities to the extent there were any into Suda,
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: and of course the campaign. The misinformation campaign was widely
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: circulated after the Sapanish Spain Supreme Court issued a rolling
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: back in July eighth concerning the immediate return of migrants
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: intercepted at sea. Online was circulating a simplified and misleading
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: interpretation of the decision which suggests that if you hurry
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: up and get into the country Spain, including Suta, a
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: territory of Spain, then you would be allowed to stay
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: legally wrong. But that's what was online. Remember, folks, you
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: needed to be jaded in cynical anytime you read something
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: online because someone might try to be might be trying
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: to mislead you, in this particular case, mislead you into
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: invading a foreign country. And apparently it ain't over yet.
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: According to the Sun, there are mounting fears that convicted terrorists, yes,
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: among the tens of thousands of people who stormed at Suta.
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: But now reports saying that they might have another wave coming,
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: apparently circulating online plans for another mass border crossing. Look
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: forward to August fifteenth, and that's supposed to happen. It's
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: all on social media, another storming of the shores of
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: student They got a national security crisis on their hands there,
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: and so do we. As if those think I'm too
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: critical of Donald Trump. I listen. I'm equally critical of
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: any politician who I think is making mistakes, who is
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: inconsistent with the otherwise conservative or my libertarian ideology. But
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: I'm damn happy that Donald Trump is President of the
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: United States of America because of this going on. In
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: his efforts to get the folks that are not legally
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: in our country, who may represent an existential threat to
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: our country, who may include people who want to do
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: evil things to our populace, who want to undermine the
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: success of our country. Let's get them out. Six nineteen
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: fifty five KO Stee Talk station Steve. I see her
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: on the line. Just looked up and Stee talk station
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: six four. If you have Kosite talk station direct to
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: the phone, he's got Steve online. Kind of uphold Steve,
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: thanks for holding. Welcome to the morning show.
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: Yes, sir, good morning. Two things I'd like to talk about.
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: Before I get to what I wanted to talk about
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: what I told Joe Strecker about, let me mention something
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: you talked about last week. It's my favorite charity, so
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: we can bring it up again. My wife and I
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: did okay financially, and we contribute financially to a couple
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: of different charities, but we don't have as much money
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: as a lot of people do. So my favorite charity
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: is Hawksworth Blood Set and I am an O positive,
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: which is the most common, which is the one they
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: were in need of. You mentioned it last week. They're
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: always they're always in need of oh positive. And tell
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: you a short story. And I'm not trying to brag,
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: but I'm just saying what happened. For years I wanted
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: to donate, and there's something about the first yeah on
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: you know, they're sticking the needle in and it's a
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: big needle. And so it took me a couple of
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: years to actually go down and donate. The first time.
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: First time I did it was in the year two
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: thousand and I've donated more than fourteen gallons of blood
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: since then, and it's one of the you know what,
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: you know what I really love about that charity, And
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: I mean, you're helping people that need your help, and
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: I'm doing what a millionaire can't do. I mean, they
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: could do it. But in other words, I am equal
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: footing with anybody when I'm donating blood. And I love
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: the fact that my blood can go into anybody male, female, heterosexual, homosexual, atheist, Christian, Muslim, Democrat, Republican,
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: doesn't matter. It's somebody that needs it. I love it
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: because of that, So dropping that now and getting to Hawaii.
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: Actually called the Democrat primary in Michigan as a frustrated
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: Republican in Kentucky here and knowing that our part he
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: tends to let us down again and again. Probably the
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: best thing that could have happened to Republicans is have
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: l Sied win barely. In other words, if he won
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: by ten points, it might be more ominous in the
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: general election most likely, And of course don't underestimate the
• 51:24
  Speaker 2: Republican's ability to step on their own seat and mess
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: this up. But probably the best thing that could have
• 51:32
  Speaker 2: had have happened to Republicans let him win barely. So
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: it looks good for the general We'll see how it
• 51:39
  Speaker 2: plays out well.
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: First off, let me thank you for mentioning the blood donation.
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: What a great summation of why it's so important and
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: how everyone can compete equally in terms of charity. But
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: also I echo your sentiments and your assessment of the
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: Abdul l Sied coming out ahead of Haley Stevens Haley
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: Stevens was a Democrat establishment person. She had the backing
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: of Washington and Michigan establishment democrats. L said he was
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: the socialist guy. He got all the darlings of the
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: young people and the left wingers, progressive luminaries, you know,
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: the Bernie Sanders folks of the world. So yeah, and
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: it was less than one point at least. I'm looking
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: at NBC News reporting on this. Less than one percentage
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: point separated the establishment candidate versus the socialist candidate. Communist
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: you could say, So yeah, I think you're probably right.
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: I hope every Haley Stevens voter who feels terrible because
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: Abdul l Siaud apparently gets the victory in the primary
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: votes for Mike Rogers. Pray to God for that outcome.

  Speaker 1: it is six forty here fifty five kr se de
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: Talks station, Happy Wednesday listener line Here, I am mentioning
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: again hope to see at High Green Brewery, Brentwood location,
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: submarine or submarin er. Mike just let me know the
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: other moment ago that he will be there with his grandson.
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: We will engage in a game of cribbage at the
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: end of the lunch, which I always enjoy. Mike, I'm
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: looking forward to seeing you again, but I'm looking forard
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: to seeing anybody wants to show up listening to lunch.
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: So it's it's just a nice time to enjoy each
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: other's fellowship. And isn't that something to be happy and
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: celebratory over. Now here's a thought exercise in a question
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: I have for you. I wasn't aware, and I immediately
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: reacted by saying, well, you can have a law, a
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: noise statute that could prevent this from happening. There are
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: noise statutes on the books. So I will appeal to
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: the Christian segtion of my audience and say, out loud,
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: would you be okay if your local church started, let's say, traditionally,
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: hear you know churches have bells, at least traditionally, thinking
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: as opposed to a call to prayer, which Muslims have,
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: it's called a time close enough for me a d
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: h an, I looked up the pronunciation because I am
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: not a Muslims. I'm not a member of the Islamic faith.
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: But it's a time that's a call to prayer and
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: it happens multiple times a day. So moving aside from that,
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: which is the subject matter of this, which I didn't
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: realize existent, but if your local Christian church started ringing
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: church bells at all hours of the day and you're
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: trying to get some sleep, you know there's an appropriate
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: time and there's not. That's why we have noise ordinances
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: and decibel limits and things. So pivoting over, since you
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: have an Islamic call for prayer, and I'm sure you've
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: probably seen it depicted it on television, maybe you've got
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: a mosque in your neighborhood that does this well. In
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: the nature of the United States, changing a little bit,
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: we now have a Minneapolis. Minneapolis City Council approved unanimously
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: a resolution back in twenty twenty three that changed the
• 57:07
  Speaker 1: city's noise ordinance to accommodate this call to prayer. First
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: major US city where the addant has become law, Minneapolis,
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: set a president for other Muslim communities to follow. So
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: Minneapolis did this sometime previous, and there are other cities
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: that also have changed the noise statute, which applies equally
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: to all forms of noise. I guess across the broad spectrum,
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: including decibel levels, to carve out a specific subset of
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: groups of people who can violate the noise Statute, notably
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: in this particular case, it's the call to prayer. And
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: I didn't know when I had to look this up
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: because it can happen. Because the reporting in this article
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: I saw one ISLAMI called a prayer. They said it
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: can happen even as early as three point thirty in
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: the morning. Now I happen to be up at that time,
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: but you know what, I happen to be in bed
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: by eight o'clock and if there was a loud loud
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: noise being broadcast outside my home after bedtime, and in
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: my case, bedtimes eight o'clock, prayer times go as late
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: as well, nine or ten o'clock, depending on where you are,
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: and it depends on it It's kind of like I
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: guess moon phases are time zones because I'm looking at
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: the prayer times for Cincinnati today set four to fifty
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: one am, one pm, four forty four pm, seven to
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: fifty five pm, and nine to nine pm. See now,
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: as you get into the nine to nine pm, then
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: I'm going to be bothered by the noise. You will
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: probably wake me up. It would disrupt my valuable sleep patterns.
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: It's why we have these things. And there are noise
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: statutes on the books which have been held constitutional in
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: the face of challenges. Why well, because they can pass
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: the strict scrutiny test. There is a compelling state interest
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: in maintaining the peace of the neighbor various neighborhoods. It's
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: equally applied to all, and it's narrowly tailored between certain hours.
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: You may not exceed certain decibels. So constitutional, these limitations
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: on sound they are. But when you have a city government,
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: they don't have to prevent noise from happening. It might
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: be something a community might want. If you have problems
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: with noise at all hours of the day, you might
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: appeal to your elected officials to enact a noise ordinance. Right, clearly,
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: that's happened across this great land of ours time and
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: time again. But you've got a smaller subset of the
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: population that wants to be noisy all the time. Do
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: you carve them out? Do you make a special subclass
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: of people that are allowed to violate the noise statutes.
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: They're supposed to keep things calm during certain hours of
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: the day. Well, here you do, Minneapolis. Put them down
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: on the list. The fundamentally changing nature of our society
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: and carving out special interest groups. Won if someone could
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: challenge this, how is it You've made it a special
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: accommodation for one religious group but not the others. We
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: hear at the local Christian church want to ring our
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: bells at various different hours of the day, including in
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: sleeping traditional sleeping hours. Huh, We're gonna start having church
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: service at three o'clock in the morning, so we need
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: to let people know where are gonna come. You think
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: they make a carve out for that community, I'm thinking not.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: Six forty five. Oh, Jay's on the line. Hang on
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: Jay Station six fifty eight fifty five krc DE talk station.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: Talk about that call to prayer. Thank you Laura for
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: sending me the photograph. It's the guy on her road
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: in front of his car, and she said, this is
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: a call to prayer at six thirty the morning in
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: front of our house in Mason. Yes, this guy stopped
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: his car, put out his mat on the street in
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: front of his home, in front of our home rather
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: Laura's home, faced his headlights and did his praying. Okay,
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: not my religion, but whatever. Let's see what Jay's got. Mike,
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: hang on your next Jay, thanks for holding. Welcome to
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: the program.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 8: Hey Brian, good morning.
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 9: Hey.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 8: Wanted to double back on the conversation that was started yesterday.
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 8: Drew Pappa was called in talking about the the property
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 8: tax increase in Hamilton County due to something I think
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 8: was called like the Child Protective Fund or something like that.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Hamilton County Child Protective Services is the the levey
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: ends at the end of the county year. My wife
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: got our tax bill out and saw what we paid
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: this year in taxes for that particular levee. But it's
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: expiring and they say that will leave the zero funds available.
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: There will be no more line item on your property
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: taxes for that. If the levee doesn't pass.
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 8: Billy Cunningham had an interview with Denise Treehouse on your
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 8: Sister's station, and she was there were a couple couple
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 8: interesting topics or facts came out of that. Number one
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 8: Hamilton County is able to fully fund their version of
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 8: that without increase and property tax. And he talked to
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 8: Warren County Commissioner, I don't remember which one and when
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 8: they did to compare and contrast and said, what's the difference.
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 8: The difference is we don't have two stadiums down on
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 8: the river that we're funding. And there lies the smoking
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 8: gun when I talk about the football tax and the
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 8: professional sports tax, and I think there's a soccer stadium
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 8: down here and all of the entertainment. So property owners, yes,
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 8: you do have a big tax. And I thought all
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 8: these stadiums were supposed to throw off economic value in growth,
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 8: and I thought maybe property tax by this point would
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 8: be zero for people in Hamilton County with all the
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 8: goodness coming from these professional sports teams.
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well you got you got to remember all that
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: goodness flows to allegedly flows the local businesses who retain
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 1: their own profits while the taxpayers continue to fund what
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: should be private enterprise of football, professional football, which should
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: pay its own expenses, like local restaurants and businesses whose
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 1: profit might be bolstered by attendants at a football game.
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: But see normal economic principles apply to those businesses, unlike football,
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 1: where taxpayers foot the bill and the profits flow to
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: the owners. Mm hmm, what's wrong with that situation?
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 3: Jay?
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: Everything? Perhaps, Mike? Welcome to the show. Thanks for calling
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: this morning.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 10: Hi, Brian, real quick about the w n B.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 4: A want to get your opinion on Klay Travis's expansion team.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: Well you're what what about it? Yeah?
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 5: Your what's your opinion on the name and what he
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 5: wants to do about it?
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 1: I'm not following the story, so I don't know you.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: I don't have time to follow sports.
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 8: He wants to start a team, as he wants to
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 8: call him, the Nashville Balls, and its can make a
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 8: completely transgender team.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: Oh great, how's that gonna work for everybody?
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 9: Yeah?
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 1: That's another one, man. You know, we we you know,
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 1: we've entered the rum of bat crap in sentity on
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: that particular topic. My friend, you can point to all
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: types of areas where we seem to have run off
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 1: the rails, but that there is a genuine conversation out
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 1: there that you can declare yourself to be a member
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 1: of the opposite sex and then compete against members of
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 1: the true opposite sex in professional sports or any kind
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 1: of sports. By merely declaring that you're now a member
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 1: of the opposite sex without chromosomal changes, you can deny
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 1: the biological reality in this country today, and we're supposed
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 1: to accept that. And women in sports out there are
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: then subjected to the idea of having to compete against
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: a well demonstrably stronger person. You think there's no difference
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: between men and women in sports, look at men's times
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: versus women's times in timed events. Now, I can say,
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: you can make an argument all day long. I'd say
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 1: it's something that may be a non sport, but you know,
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 1: they do have competitions and things like chess where it
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: boils down to intellectual capacity as opposed to physical strength.
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: But Christophus Smithman was on a rail on that he
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: has a daughter who is a swimmer, and he knows
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 1: damn well that men in swimming. See I know this
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 1: too because I was a swimmer are faster than women,
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: full stop. But we actually are having a conversation and
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: to the extent he's accurate in terms of that particular
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 1: sports team, people embracing that concept and ultimately what I
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: would argue ruining women's sports six efty six, fifty five
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 1: K Seed talk stations. Sometimes they just want to shed
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: a tear for the United States of America. We need
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 1: to get back on track. Oh look, Abdo, I'll say,
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 1: ed got the good to toorro nominee in Michigan. Don't
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: go away. We got more to talk about. Plus tonav
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 1: and the Americans for Prosperity's Donald all about the big
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: ad campaign AFP's launch here in the state of Ohio.
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: He'll join the program at seven thirty. I'll be right
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 1: back at the top of the hour. Get the top
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: stories of the day. Seven oh six here at fifty

  Speaker 1: host this program, fifty five Tarnasey Morning Show. I always
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: look forward to having guests on the program. Donald o'eil
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 1: coming top the bottom of this hour, State director for
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 1: Americans for Prosperity. They launched a new ad campaign, multiple
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 1: millions of dollars backing John Houston over Shared Brown. Some
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: serious races to deal with in November here in the
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 1: state of Ohio, please get out and vote. Steve Belzo
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 1: Klemer County Veteran Service is going to be talking about
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 1: the Veteran Financial Assistance Program. Looking out for your best interest.
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: You will join the program after Donovan leaves seven point
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 1: forty for Steve Robert Sprague one hour from now eight
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: oh five. He is the Treasurer of the State of
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: Ohio running for Secretary of State. We're talking about voter
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: ID on the ballot in Ohio, so you can establish
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: it as a part of the Ohio Constitution. Andy noting
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 1: that there's already law in the books in Ohio with
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: voter ID you have to present one. Well, many people
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 1: want to memorialize that in the constitution, so some future
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: perhaps I don't know, Abdul l Saied governor and his administration,
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: assuming we get one of those in the state of Ohio,
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: which might happen in Michigan much wants to change the
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: law and make it easier for people who aren't eligible
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 1: to vote to vote in the state of Ohio. So
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: if you memorialize it as a constitutional amendment, you don't
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: have that problem, or at least it makes it much
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: more difficult to challenge. Also cleaning up the voter rolls
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: those topics with Robert Sprague in an Hour, follow by
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: Judge Jenna Politano. The normal sea of American war since
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: World War Two. Of course, every president sort of engaged
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 1: in unilateral decision making when it comes to launching warfare,
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: and of course we're in the middle of one of
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: those right now. Cheryl Pop. Oh, and a concern on
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 1: that with regard to our munitions supplies. There's been lots
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 1: of reports lately about our running low on some significant
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 1: weapons systems, even more swirling after yesterday's report from Reuter's
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 1: on that. I can give you some of the details
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: on that. Anyway, Cheryl pop has an announcement on Honor Flight.
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: She'll join the program at eight forty five. God bless
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 1: the folks at Honor Flight tri State tomorrow on the
• 1:08:25

  Speaker 1: expert Jay Ratliffe. You know I love hearing from you too,
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: so feel free to chime in if you like. Five one, three, seven, four,
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 1: nine to fifty five hundred, eight hundred eighty two to
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 1: three Talk con Fi fifty on at and T phones. Yeah,
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 1: according to Reuters, they've been talking with some folks in
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: the know unnamed sources. And I know we can call
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: some skepticism and some you know, justifiable eyebrow raising when
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: it comes to unnamed sources. But not the first time
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 1: there have been concerns expressed out loud over our using
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: up all of our surface, all of our missile systems.
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: This reporting relates to our army tactical missile systems and
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 1: precision strike missiles, which they report the United States has used,
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 1: in the words of Reuters, reporting virtually all of those weapons,
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 1: relying on the couple of sources that they cite in
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: the article long range munitions costs more than a million
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 1: dollars each. Of course, critical part of our arsenal, allowing
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 1: accurate strikes from a safe distance. In other words, you
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 1: don't have to have an airplane zip in close by
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 1: where it runs the risk of being shot out of
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 1: the sky to drop a bomb on something. Of course,
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 1: you shoot it from far away, and that's what we've
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 1: been doing in Iran since the start of the conflict.
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: Or or if you'd want to more accurately stated that
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: the army tactical missile systems apparently played a keywar in
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 1: Ukraine as well, and Ukraine would like more of these.
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 1: But we have drawn down these supplies from around the globe.
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 1: And when they reported that the the global supply we've
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 1: been drawing in from around the world, we have them here,
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 1: we have them there. Well, we don't need them over
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 1: there right now anyway. So let's grab those Tomahawk cruise missiles,
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 1: let's grab those precision strike missiles, and we'll bring them
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 1: into the Iranian battle theater. Well, you can only do
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 1: that for so long. And as we are now learning,
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: the stockpiles are getting critically low. And I know Donald
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: Trump is ordering he said it the other day. We've
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 1: got more weapons being ordered to manufacture now than we
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 1: ever have. He said, you know, there's nothing to worry about.
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 1: The United States, says, farmer munitions than anyone in the world,
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 1: far more than we need. Our defense companies are at
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 1: this moment making more munitions than they've ever made before,
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 1: and in addition to expanding their plants and equipment to
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 1: record levels. That's all. I will not refute those points.
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 1: I think that's very accurate what he's saying. He did
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 1: order a lot they are making them Raytheon probably doing
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 1: pretty good job in terms of their business model, but
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: the level at which we can manufacture them, and how
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 1: quickly we can manufacture them, and the cost manufacture them
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 1: all playing into this concern, and some suggesting that it
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 1: wasn't necessarily pressure from the various Gulf States on Donald
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 1: Trump leading into the weekend that caused him to pause
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 1: the largest military action since World War Two, as he
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: characterized it. Some are suggesting that he's a circle of advisors,
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: military and otherwise have warned him about the low stockpile
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: of weapons. And as I look at this, you know,
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: if there's a global supply out there, we've got him
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 1: over here, We've got him over there. We're drawing from
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: those here and there resource supplies to bring him into
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: a conflict that we're currently engaged in. Why were they
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: elsewhere around the world in the first place. I like
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 1: to believe that they were there out of necessity. There
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 1: was a reason to place these longer range missiles in
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: various corners of the globe because there was some sort
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 1: of threat that justified their being there. I have to
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 1: imagine the threat didn't evaporate, It just is by comparison
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 1: a lesser threat, so ripple effects, ripple effects, and still
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 1: no word. Although the stock market did really well today,
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 1: some are sort of relying on the idea that we're
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 1: still negotiating with the Iranians and there's still some life
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: in the negotiations. Marke had gone through the roof, So
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 1: wait for it. That's what we seem to be doing
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 1: these days, waiting for it.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 3: Ah.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 1: In legal developments, I think my listening audience will please
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 1: to note that the Federal Appeals Court, pivting over to
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: a subject matter completely unrelated to that one, Florida's ban
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 1: on children attending sexualized drag shows is in fact constitutional.
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 1: Now about that court overturned the lower court's decision to
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: block the state law. Hamburger Mary's, a bar and restaurant
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: chains that actually holds drag shows and previously held what
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 1: it called a family friendly performances for children, which took
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 1: place on Sunday's oddly sued the state over the ban.
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 1: That chain claimed its law the law was unconstitutional. However,
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 1: the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals judges disagreed. N bank
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 1: decision eight judges to five ruled that it is in
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 1: fact constitutional. Judge Andrew Brasher, writing on the majority's behalf,
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 1: we are convinced the lower court, the district Court erd
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 1: for two reasons. First, they lacked authority to impose a
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 1: universal injunction that prevented the enforcement of the act. That's
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 1: one component of it. The scope and breadth of an
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 1: injunction separate from the entire underlying legal discussion, which is
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 1: whether a ban on children attending transperformances is constitutional. That's
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: the second point they made in the decision. The Hamburger
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 1: Mary's was not entitled even more a more limited preliminary
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 1: injunction to prevent the enforcement of the Act because its
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 1: claims do not have a substantial likelihood of success on
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 1: the merits critical element in an injunction, the judge decides upfront,
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 1: if you're likely to win the case, all the case
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 1: law out in the world. They look at that sort
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 1: of in a cursory level. They look at the situation
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: in front of them, who's more likely to win or not.
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 1: Because remember, an injunction is a preliminary thing. It's designed
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 1: to stop time, effectively preventing the alleged harm that's going
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 1: to happen in the world. If the law is allowed
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: to move forward and take effect, So you got to
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 1: hurry up and make a decision on that. And then
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 1: ultimately they have a decision what they call on the merits,
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 1: where the lawyers come in with their various briefs citing
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 1: all the case law out there that a court has
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 1: already pretty much reviewed in an injunction hearing, this court
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 1: said you are not likely to win. Ergo, you're not
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 1: entitled to an injunction protecting children from the sexualization that
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 1: is always going on in these adult performances. Law makes
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 1: it a misdemeanor for businesses to knowingly allow a child
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 1: to end quote adult live performance that depicts or simulates nudity,
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: sexual conduct, sexual excitement, or specific sexual activities. That's what
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 1: the law says. Anybody want their children in that event.
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 1: Further identified a prohibited adult live performances as those that
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 1: quote predominantly appeal to a prittiant, shameful, or morbid interest,
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 1: and taken as a whole, are without serious literary, artistic, political,
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 1: or scientific value for the age of the child present.
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 1: There's your legal ideas going in there. If it does
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 1: have serious literary, artistic, or political content or value, then
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 1: you're going to be protected by the First Amendment basically
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: and businesses and violation of this Act could face suspensional
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: loss of license five thousand dollars fine for the first defense,
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 1: ten thousand dollars for the second. Now a three judge
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 1: panel the lower panel, which before it was referred over
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 1: to the end bank hearing, which is all the judges
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 1: on the Eleventh Circuit. They sided with the restaurant, upholding
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 1: the injunction, with the judge saying the act wields a
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 1: shotgun when the First Amendment allows a scalpel at most
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 1: narrowly tailored to achieve a significant government in a critical
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: government interest. Protecting children obviously is of primary importance, I think,
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: and we can justify an argument to protect children as
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 1: long as the law is narrowly tailored this scalpel argument.
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 1: The underlying court suggested, you can go ahead and have
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: and curbed certain constitutionally protected behavior, but it's got to
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: be a compelling government interest and narrowly tailored to achieve
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 1: the compelling government interest. Welcome to the Florida law protecting
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 1: children from attending prillient interest drag shows, which I have
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: to point out should be a parent's obligation seven sixteen
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 1: right now fifty five carse the talk station. Feel free
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 1: to give me a call and see the talk station
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 1: seven twenty one, fifty five CARCD talk station. I mean
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 1: Wednesday listener lunch Wednesday today, High Green Brewery, Brentwood location.
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: Hope to see you there. And you know we are
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 1: being destroyed from within the reality as you stare at
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 1: Michigan in this cubernatorial race, and that the socialist COMMI
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: guy has basically been declared the winner, a very squeaky
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 1: victory for Abdul l Sayeed over Haley Stevens. Stevens right
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 1: behind her or right in front of her with one
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 1: percentage point or less than a percentage point separating him. Well,
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 1: he wins. That's the importance of voting out there. So
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 1: Mike Rodgers on the Republican side now stands, I would
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 1: argue a better chance. And that's what the Democrats were
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 1: worried about with Abdul l Sayad. All the establishment Democrats
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 1: were backing Haley Stevens. She didn't win. But this whole
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 1: idea of destruction from within and pivoting off the whole
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 1: idea that we actually have a conversation in this country
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 1: that men can deliterally declare themselves to be a woman,
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 1: we're supposed to take that as literal. The Smithsonian Institution's
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 1: National Museum of American History is illustrative of the creeping
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 1: destruction from within. And I went to get to this
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 1: last week. But Jeffrey Anderson, who happens to be the
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 1: president of the American Main Street Initiative and served as
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 1: director of the Euroa of Justice Statistics for a period
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 1: of time, wrote an op ed piece about this because
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 1: he had to testify about the National Museum of American History.
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 1: Think the name of it should suggest we're talking about
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 1: American history, right. Is there something there to be for
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 1: us to be proud of at one point in time here, Yes,
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 1: there was, but apparently it's been taken over by people
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 1: who hate our country, he writes to Simsonians. Institution's National
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 1: Museum of American History has been in the news for
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 1: disparaging our nation's history and engaging in partisan activism. The
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 1: director there and the Hardigg, had to testify in a
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 1: couple of congressional hearings about that. She was responding to
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 1: a one hundred and sixty page report from the White
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 1: House Domestic Policy Council, detailing how the museum has strayed
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 1: from its intended mission American history. What she did in
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 1: front of Congress was to invoke the flag, specifically the
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 1: Star Spangled banner, and her prepared testimony referring to it
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 1: multiple times. That flag, which inspired Francis Scott Key's been
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 1: displayed in the National Museum of American History since nineteen
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 1: sixty four. It's right there in the current gallery where
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 1: it's been for eighteen For the current gallery, it's been
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: there for eighteen years. Thehibit exhibit is, he writes, excellent
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 1: and patriotic, but the newer parts of the museum are
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 1: heavy handed, dumbed down, and importantly anti American, which is
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 1: nothing what the National Museum should be. He said. I
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 1: sat directly behind Hardig as a witness in her second hearing,
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 1: testifying that the National Museum of American History has increasingly
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 1: is a museum about not American history, but activists attempt
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 1: to shape the future. Newer exhibiting museum offer no coherent
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 1: sense of a shared national identity. They divide America into
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 1: oppressors and the oppressed. And since Hardy didn't want to
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 1: discuss her the offerings unveiled during her tenure, he said,
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 1: let me high out A few standalone display in the
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 1: case in the midst of a busy walkway contains a
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 1: lone National Football League jersey un worn by Jim Thorpe Redgrange,
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 1: Jim Brown, or any other early NFL legend. The jersey
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 1: belonged to Carl Nassib, who in twenty twenty one became
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 1: the league's quote first openly gay player to take the
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 1: field in the regular season game close quote. Nearby a
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 1: many exhibit on video games, visitors are asked, have you
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 1: ever experimented with your identity in video games? In April,
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 1: apparently to commemorate the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 1: the American Independence, the museum opened Puro Ritmo, The Musical
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 1: Journey of Salsa. In the quote unquote family friendly exhibit
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: quote change your game Combia to Juego close quote, visitors
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: are asked is gender testing fair? Where they're told that
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 1: critics argue that gender tests are humiliating and discriminated against
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 1: athletes who challenge traditional gender norms. The National Museum of
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 1: the American History has that exhibit. Aside from its commitments
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 1: to activism. This is essentially an exhibit about nothing, pushing
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 1: the outer limits of vacuousness. His opinion, which I share
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 1: prominent science answer, who can be a game changer? Anyone
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 1: who is a game changer? You are? What this has
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 1: to do with American's history is anyone's guess. While making
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 1: space for such dribbled museum ignores huge swaths of American history,
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 1: offering little to nothing on the colonial period, the American Founding,
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: Louisiana Purchase, Lewis and Clark's Expedition, the Lincoln Douglas Debates,
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 1: the pioneers and settlers of the American West, the Roaring Twenties,
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 1: Great Depression, the Cold War, and much else. You can't
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: find it. During questioning, Hardy claiming the museum has the
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 1: dozens of exhibits that include the founding area. In response,
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 1: I noted the author, you could put everything in the
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 1: museum that mentions the founding into rooms that feature the
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 1: Lowrider exhibit and the Salsa Music exhibit, and you'd have
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 1: space left over. Yeah, they got those two. What little
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 1: museum does provide the founding pre founding eras is largely critical.
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 1: One exhibit fourteen ninety two seventeen seventy six, referred to
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 1: as the period of unsettling the continent. Visitors are told, quote,
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 1: our world today grows out of that unsettling history. Elsewhere,
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 1: they're told that our founding can either be viewed as
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 1: a in their words, complete, perfect, sacred event led by
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 1: a great patriot who, as American children would learn, never
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 1: told a lie, or else as, in their words, part
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 1: of a wider, unfinished movement that was deeply imperfect. Viewing
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 1: our founding is one of the greatest events in world history,
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 1: warts and all apparently not an option. He concludes, America's
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 1: deserve a national museum of American history that expresses a
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 1: love of that history and views it as the wondrous
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 1: story of a nation conceived in liberty. They don't just
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 1: server a museum that alternates between ignoring and condemning our
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 1: extraordinary heritage. Amen, mister Anderson, Donald and Neil Americans for
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 1: Prosperity coming up next with Fat Bank to put behind
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 1: John Houstead as he races against Shared Brown fast approaching.

  Speaker 1: In November, KRCLEA talk station seven. If you got krc

  Speaker 1: DE talk station, Happy Wednesday, Time for Donald o'nil. Americans
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 1: for Prosperity. Afpaction dot com. Welcome back Donovan and Neil.
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 1: We got some money to back with some candidates out
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 1: here in the United States of America, notably the John
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 1: Houston campaign. I just recognizing that in Michigan you have
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 1: a communist now is the Democratic nominee for governor. We've
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 1: got a real problem on our hands in this country.
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 1: We need to fight off this, this insurrection, this invasion
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 1: that's happening in our world politically, and I know AFP
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 1: Action is right there with some money to back John Houston.
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 1: Welcome back, donaldan O'Neil Ryan.
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 3: Always going to be with you.
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 11: And yeah, you know just what less than a decade ago,
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 11: Bernie Sanders was the exception to the rule. Right, We
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 11: were saying, oh, that's just crazy New Englanders talking about
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 11: being a vowed socialists, And here we are. You got
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 11: a number of them across the country popping up and
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 11: winning Democrat primaries state to state.
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 3: Even here in the Midwest.
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 11: It's wild and it's it's that full tilt we're finding
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 11: our nation on towards radical progressivism, socialism, commedy, whatever we
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 11: call it, it ain't good and it's it's we're out
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 11: of quite the crossroads right now.
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 1: Well we are, and at least I'm glad that folks
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 1: within the Democratic Party are also believing this to be
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 1: a terrible thing for their party, which suggests we may
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 1: be able to defend off these communists from you know,
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 1: gaining even greater control here in the United States, because
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: not all Democrats have gone full on COMMI but we
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 1: of course have maybe. Of course, I don't know, how
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 1: do we what do we label Shared Brown? Is he
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 1: full you know, a Democrat Socialism of America kind of guy.
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 1: I know he tries to keep his head down when
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 1: it comes to very controversial stances, but I think we
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 1: have to worry about him as well. Donovan one hundred percent.
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 11: You can go back and look at the social media
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 11: posts he's made, both on his personal campaign and official account,
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 11: right the same things el Sayed has talked about, the
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 11: same things Bernie Sanders has talked about, same things Elizabeth
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 11: Warren has talked about. These are the things that Shared
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 11: Brown is advocating for. And make no mistake, even you know,
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 11: as he takes on a new shade of Shared Brown
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 11: here in this campaign, sounding more pro worker, more moderate
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 11: than ever before.
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 8: The reality is when, if and when Shared Brown.
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 11: Were to get re elected to the Senate alongside Al
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 11: Sayid and Bernie Sanders and Chuck Schumer and the rest
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 11: of that crew, the Democrats Socialist of America crew, he
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 11: will vote one hundred percent in the lockstep with them.
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 11: And that's not fiction, No, it's just fact, Brian, because
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 11: that's what he did the last twenty years he's been
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 11: in the Senate. And so you know, you can package
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 11: the politics different ways, right, and they're very effective at that,
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 11: Shared Brown in particular. But the reality is when it
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 11: comes to the votes, when it comes to the legislation,
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 11: there's no difference in policy. It's more difference in political style.
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 11: And that's what's most alarming here, right. This isn't about substance.
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 11: It's about how do we gain power so that then
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 11: we can control this nation out of Washington, d c.
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 3: Rather than the communities we all live in.
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 1: Well, and one thing you should be fearful of, even
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 1: if you don't believe that Sharon Brown is one of
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 1: these DSA radicals. Democrats are pretty good at keeping their
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 1: people in order and lined up. They are unified in
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 1: opposition to the Republicans, So whatever their people on their
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 1: side suggest they're all going to join together and vote
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 1: for it, with the notable exception of John Fetterman right. Well,
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 1: even John Fetterman, right.
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 11: You know, these folks get whipped in the line and
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 11: best believe if you know, let's say they gain control
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 11: this year Democrats, socialists do and betterment steps out of.
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 1: Line, and they'll be very quick to replace them.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 11: You see folks like Hayley Stevens, right, who was favored
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 11: to win this race, as you know, being framed as
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 11: a common sense moderate who, by the way, would vote
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 11: the exact same way SAYE would. There's no difference there
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 11: in policy. But you know they'll replace those folks. They've
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 11: proven they want to do it, they've proven they can
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 11: do it. It's about a full tilt to extremism here
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 11: in the Democrat Party and our countries at risk.
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 1: How can my listeners help out and stop this spread
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 1: in this wave, Donovan O'Neill, Well, you don't have to.
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 3: Worry about traveling another state.
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 11: We've got to fight right here, Brian, John Houston versus
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 11: Shared Brown. We've got to get out the vote for
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 11: John Houston. We've done over four hundred thousand doors We've

  Speaker 11: here and with less than ninety days to go till
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 11: election day.

• 1:27:54
  Speaker 1: money flowing into the state of Ohio, and a lot
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 1: of that money backing these far left candidates. We need

• 1:28:16
  Speaker 1: Sifty five KRCD talk station, Listen to Lunch Day Hope,
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 1: see High Gram Brewery. And you know me, I'm a
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 1: huge fan of the American veteran and I do everything
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 1: I can to support veterans. Of course, active duty service members.
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 1: I have tremendous respect for the American military and I
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 1: always like good things that happen to men and women
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 1: who serve their country. And that's what the Klemont County
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 1: Veteran Service is about, providing services for the veteran community
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 1: and you know, helping them out of financial jams from
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 1: time to time. Joining me in studio, Steve Belsa from
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 1: the Climat County Veteran Services. Welcome back, Steve, my friend.
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 1: I always love seeing you and I appreciate what you're
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 1: doing for my veteran friends each and every day.
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 6: Bryan brother, you are just a partner in the business,
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 6: helping us take care of those.
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 1: Happy to be man happy to be. It's the least
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 1: I can do for the American veteran And you know,
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 1: I imagine veterans sometimes can plain about their bosses. I
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 1: just say it out loud. We all struggle with our bosses,
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 1: you know, And I'm not This isn't a shot at
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump. I'm just thinking, you know, when you sign up,
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 1: you don't know what you're going to get, right, Have.
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 6: You been to my office. I thought, this is sure,
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 6: thinking of not like Ken comes into babysit me here.
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 1: So well, let's talk about the financial assistance program, one
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 1: of many services that depend my County Veteran Services offers. Yeah,
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 1: you know what is it.
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 6: It's a Ohio Revised Law has established this in Chapter
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 6: fifty nine hundred that it is one of the main
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 6: three functions we do as an office with the Clarmont
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 6: County Veteran Services and it also across every county in Ohio.
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 6: So it is a phenomenal gift the veterans that the
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 6: Ohio statutory Law states that counties will provide up too
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 6: point five of the village the taxation of the county
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 6: to support the office of taking care of veterans and
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 6: hundreds of years, this goes back of just shoring up
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 6: those injured in combat, their widow or their spouses or
• 1:30:09
  Speaker 6: their children, and it's really a we often call it
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 6: emergency financial assistance, Brian, but it's more immediate financial assistance.
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 6: And we've taken a fresh look at how we are
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 6: actually working with the veterans of Claremont County and how
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 6: our policy and order aligns with Chapter fifty nine hundred
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 6: or the higher Revice code.
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 1: All right, well, you know me, if my tax payer
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 1: dollars are going to go to support something, it certainly
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 1: would be something along the lines of what veterans I
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 1: mean not paid a whole lot when you serve in
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 1: the American military. So it's good that some of your
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 1: service continues after your service time.
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 3: That's right.
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 1: There's these things out there that you're worthy of by
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 1: virtue of the sacrifice you made for our country and
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 1: your choice of employment basically.
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 6: Right, right, yeah, when you consider less than two percent
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 6: of all America has ever served. Yeah, and I get
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 6: it that we can only take so many. The country's growing.
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 6: And yet these individuals have signed for their life to
• 1:31:07
  Speaker 6: say I agree to shed my blood for the freedom
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 6: and the democracy of this country. And yet when we
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 6: come back, it's who are you?
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 6: Well, I know you have PTSD.
• 1:31:17
  Speaker 3: I don't want to hire you. You're going to shoot
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 3: us all up.
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 6: I was just all the drama that comes with It's
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 6: it's subserviet in as sense and the way they speak,
• 1:31:24
  Speaker 6: so to be able then to find these veterans coming
• 1:31:28
  Speaker 6: up saying Steve, I just I can't make this work.
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 6: I need some help it. I get the blessing.
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 3: I bet you do.
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 1: That's why you go to work with a smile on
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 1: your face every day. Steve Bells, Oh, let's pause. We'll
• 1:31:39
  Speaker 1: bring Steve back. We'll talk about eligibility requirements for veterans
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 1: to apply for financial systems and how you can apply
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 1: for financial systems. So stick around. We got information for you.
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 1: And if you have a veteran in your family or
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 1: in your world it's not currently listening. We're going to
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 1: refer you over to the Clamont County Veteran Service for
• 1:31:53
  Speaker 1: the Claarmont County folks. But remember each county has a
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 1: Veteran Services Commission, so it's not unique to Claarmont County.
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 1: Thankfully seven five Right now, let mention gaated forty nine.
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 1: Ifif you've got KRECD talk station, Steve Belfo Comma County
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 1: Veteran Services in studio. We're talking about the financial Assistance program.
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 1: It's in the state of Ohio. They established this virtue
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 1: of taxpayer dollars and to help out veterans who are
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 1: in immediate financial need. And Steve, you mentioned that immediacy.
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 1: What I want to dive into the eligibility requirements because
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 1: not everybody that comes in is going to be eligible
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 1: for financial assistance. There's criteria thankfully in place and correct.
• 1:32:28
  Speaker 1: It's your job to walk them through the criteria. But
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 1: so let's boil down, what does eligibility for this program mean?
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 6: Absolutely, this is not just your an ATM by the
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 6: county exactly dolding out the dollars. It is very conscious
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 6: of who we're supporting, how and under what existence of
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 6: an emergency that you may try to quantify. There's an
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 6: application form and as we look at the situation, we're
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 6: going to require two months of bank statements. I want
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 6: to know do you have a spending habit or is
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 6: this really an emmergur emergency. Things happen, life happens, right,
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 6: and there are times where we show up one another.
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 6: But if the individual's in a bad spending habit to
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 6: begin with, I want to get them to counseling of
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 6: how to set up a ledger, a budget and how
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 6: to work with that.
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 1: See, you just anticipated my question. You just don't send
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 1: them out at the door and saying no, you've got
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 1: a spending problem, not a financial problem. You help them
• 1:33:21
  Speaker 1: deal with the management of the finance.
• 1:33:23
  Speaker 6: Absolutely, absolutely, that's great. So you may initially a first
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 6: time okay, I need to carry it, so I may
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 6: take care of the situation for you. But this is
• 1:33:33
  Speaker 6: what I'm going to get from you, and you're going
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 6: to come back in and we have a counselor that
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 6: sets with them, that teaches them how to budget and finance.
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 6: So hopefully I don't see them again unless it truly
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 6: is Dorothy stopped by and here comes the Wizard of
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 6: Oz and the house disappeared.
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 6: That's great still, Yet it's an opportunity to shore up
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 6: veterans in my community.
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 1: I love that, you know. I used to be anti
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 1: you know, criminalizing people's self abuse and like using drug
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 1: that's that person's problem and responsible to not mind it.
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 1: Should we throw them in jail because of it? And
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 1: I've changed my tune on my libertarian viewpoint on that,
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 1: because what does the criminal justice system do for that person?
• 1:34:11
  Speaker 1: It quite often puts them in front of someone who
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 1: will get them into counseling. Correct, and if they counsel
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 1: themselves out of a drug addiction, we have solved an
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 1: ongoing perpetual problem. So kind of analogy there, I'm not
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 1: saying my veteran friends are criminal, but sometimes they do
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 1: have struggle with some substance abuse that may be the
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 1: source of the financial problems. You're going to find that
• 1:34:29
  Speaker 1: out well.
• 1:34:29
  Speaker 6: And if I have a way to lift them out
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 6: of the trailer park, yes center apartment into a home
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 6: that eventually they can own for their children, it's progression
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 6: and I'm turning a veteran back into a positive member
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 6: of the community rather than the underside.
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 1: That's why I love what you guys are doing over there.
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 1: So how does a veteran apply for financial assistance and
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 1: what type of information you're going to be asking from it?
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 1: All Bright One is on the internet.
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 6: We have the application listed so they could print it off,
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 6: fill it out, and on the front of the application
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 6: at list everything you need to bring to me or
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 6: my investigator who does my emergency financial assistance is going
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 6: to go through. I need two months of bank statements,
• 1:35:07
  Speaker 6: checking and savings. There's also the D two fourteen where
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 6: you honorably discharged. I mean there comes in parameters of
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 6: what we're looking for and who we can help, and
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 6: it's statutory law that establishes who we can help. As
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 6: a veteran status. If you're dishonorably discharged or back conduct discharge.
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 6: There's very little help for that individual, and financial assistance
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 6: isn't there. It's not that difficult to get an honorable
• 1:35:32
  Speaker 6: discharge out of the military if you're just paying attention. However,
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 6: there are some who want to push back. Nonetheless, the
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 6: application has everything they need with here's your bills, as
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 6: well as what are you having a financial problem with?
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 3: Bring that to me.
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 6: If it is of nature of significant cost.
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 1: I want three quotes.
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 6: I don't want just I can fix this myself, because
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 6: apparently it's broken down from you fixing it already. Bring
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 6: me three quotes that I then have an opportunity. Plus,
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 6: we have partners in the community who have said, Steve,
• 1:36:06
  Speaker 6: I want to help veterans, and potentially I save taxpayers
• 1:36:09
  Speaker 6: money because I can go to Joey, Mikey or Johnny
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 6: and say, hey, I've got an individual with here's an HVAC,
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 6: here's a car that won't run, here's this situation, Hey, Steve,
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 6: let me go look at it.
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 1: Well, here's a shout out to local businesses. You know,
• 1:36:22
  Speaker 1: repair folks. If you want to dedicate some charitable contribution,
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 1: time and your skill set to help veterans then get
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 1: in touch with the Klermont County Veterans Services. Absolutely, that's
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 1: a great thing.
• 1:36:32
  Speaker 6: I love doing it and they love doing it as well,
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 6: so it's a return on their investment from the heart
• 1:36:36
  Speaker 6: as well, so it becomes a full cycle event. But
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 6: that's that's how they need to apply with an application
• 1:36:42
  Speaker 6: to the office.
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 1: Just go to Claremontcounty Veterans dot com. Right there on
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 1: the top of the screen. There you'll see the word benefits.
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 1: You'll see you put your little cursor on that. You
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 1: get a scroll down menu right there financial assistance. There's
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 1: all the details and information and how's the I understand
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 1: and the process is changed for completed applications. It has
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 1: in what way.
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 3: So we used to.
• 1:37:07
  Speaker 6: Maybe a year ago, the service officers would see these
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 6: individuals every Monday. So if you applied on a Tuesday,
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 6: you were going to wait at least six days to
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 6: get in front of somebody to then look at your application,
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 6: and then maybe you didn't have everything, so then they
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 6: sent you away to go get more documents. But then
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 6: I also had four individuals that is subjective to what's
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 6: an emergency financial situation, So the results were even different
• 1:37:35
  Speaker 6: dependent on who the veteran was going to see. So
• 1:37:39
  Speaker 6: the board allowed me to hire an investigator. He's labeled
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 6: and he is the one processing Monday through Friday if
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 6: you have a completed application. Again, he's working part time
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 6: ten to two, but if your applications complete, you can
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 6: get same day service. Now it's also county government. It's
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 6: going to take a day or two to cut the check, folks.
• 1:37:59
  Speaker 6: We don't have a checkbook for the county in my office.
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 6: But it will take a day or two. But you
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 6: can feel the relief happening already, where this is something
• 1:38:07
  Speaker 6: we can take care of to shore your up, and
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 6: there's someone you can speak to Monday through Friday, not
• 1:38:13

• 1:38:15
  Speaker 1: That's great. You know right away whether you've got formal approval, sure,
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 1: and then you're just waiting for the check to be cut.
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 1: That's going to be peace of mind right there. Clairemont

  Speaker 1: them as well. Coming up, Robert Sprague. He is the
• 1:39:02
  Speaker 1: current treasurer. You might know that here in Ohio. He's
• 1:39:04
  Speaker 1: running for the talk station I heard radio. It's eight
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 1: oh six here at fifty five krs, the talk station
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 1: Happy Wednesday and the reminder listener Lunch Wednesday, High Green,
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 1: Brentwood location. Up to see you there, and I'm pleased
• 1:39:21
  Speaker 1: to welcome back to the fifty five Carsey Morning Show.
• 1:39:23
  Speaker 1: He's currently the treasurer in the state of Ohio. He
• 1:39:25
  Speaker 1: is running for Secretary of State. He's a demonstrably better
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 1: choice than the Democrat. Welcome back to the fifty five
• 1:39:30
  Speaker 1: KRSEE Morning Show, Robert Sprague. It's a real pleasure to
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 1: have you on today, sir.
• 1:39:34
  Speaker 3: Hey, thanks for having me on today. Brian.
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 1: You know, I I we all worry about the the
• 1:39:40
  Speaker 1: the outside individual folks who are not lawfully able to
• 1:39:43
  Speaker 1: vote in elections here in the state of Ohio or
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 1: any election in the United States of America. I just
• 1:39:48
  Speaker 1: wanted to get your reaction on the craziness going on
• 1:39:50
  Speaker 1: real quickly. Out in Michigan, we have the Democrats socialist
• 1:39:53
  Speaker 1: Abdul Lsied demonstrably as left as a party could possibly
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 1: be within the Democrat on Brea. They chose him over
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 1: the more conservative party back Hailey Stevens. This is a
• 1:40:04
  Speaker 1: phenomenon that's growing in our country, Robert Sprague, It's something
• 1:40:07
  Speaker 1: we need to fend off. Are you disturbed by any
• 1:40:10
  Speaker 1: of this or do you think it's just these crazy,
• 1:40:12
  Speaker 1: sort of really really far left Democrat blue states that
• 1:40:16
  Speaker 1: are embracing this.
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 3: No. I think it's a real danger to our country.
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 9: I mean, if it's one and it's just Mandamia in
• 1:40:22
  Speaker 9: New York City, you go, well, you know, maybe they're
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 9: just crazy. But you know when it's a Midwestern industrialized
• 1:40:29
  Speaker 9: state like Michigan, even though we like to hate their
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 9: football team.
• 1:40:32
  Speaker 3: I think you've got to stand up and take notice.
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 3: And these socialists, I mean.
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 9: If you really look at their party platform, it is
• 1:40:39
  Speaker 9: just anti American. It's everything that we are against and
• 1:40:43
  Speaker 9: that we fought against in wars against foreign countries. So
• 1:40:47
  Speaker 9: this socialist movement is a real thing, and it's a
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 9: real danger to our country. I think that it is
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 9: a reflection of people's frustrations with institutions. You know, they
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 9: want the economy to be more affordable. We understand that
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 9: we have a plan for that as Republicans. They trust
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 9: us with the economy. We need to deliver, and we
• 1:41:08
  Speaker 9: also need to deliver with the election security, which is
• 1:41:10
  Speaker 9: one I'm running for Secretary of State.
• 1:41:12
  Speaker 3: But this socialist movement.
• 1:41:14
  Speaker 9: Is a real danger to our nation and our culture
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 9: and the fabric of who we are as Americans.
• 1:41:20
  Speaker 1: Robert Sprigg, the Democratic Socialist of America, platform calls I
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 1: can boil it down and say it with a straight face,
• 1:41:26
  Speaker 1: and I don't think I'm wrong. It's the elimination or
• 1:41:29
  Speaker 1: eradication of the Constitution in the United States of America.
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 1: When you want to get rid of the Senate, when
• 1:41:35
  Speaker 1: you want to have the president elected by the House
• 1:41:37
  Speaker 1: of Representatives, when you want to get rid of the
• 1:41:39
  Speaker 1: electoral college, I mean, all of that flies in the
• 1:41:41
  Speaker 1: face of the oath of office in the Supreme law
• 1:41:44
  Speaker 1: of Land.
• 1:41:46
  Speaker 3: It is.
• 1:41:46
  Speaker 9: And by the way, they're not telling the American people
• 1:41:48
  Speaker 9: that they're not actually running on that platform. They're not
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 9: saying we want to eliminate the electoral electoral college, we
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 9: want to change the underlying constitution of we the people. Instead,
• 1:42:00
  Speaker 9: they simply point the finger and say, the economy's not
• 1:42:03
  Speaker 9: working for you. You're frustrated. You know it's the other
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 9: people's fault, and you know we're going to fix it
• 1:42:09
  Speaker 9: by basically using government, which obviously hasn't worked. We've seen
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 9: it hasn't worked, whether you're talking about the Soviet Union,
• 1:42:17
  Speaker 9: whether you're talking about socialist Cuba, all these other examples
• 1:42:21
  Speaker 9: throughout history. We know that that method doesn't work. They're
• 1:42:24
  Speaker 9: not campaigning, they're not telling the truth about what they
• 1:42:27
  Speaker 9: want to do to our institutions, to our constitution, and
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 9: to our country. But this is a real thing, and
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 9: as Republicans, if we don't get out and vote this November.
• 1:42:36
  Speaker 9: This is what's going to take hold, and it's going
• 1:42:39
  Speaker 9: to be a wave across our country.
• 1:42:41
  Speaker 3: We will never let that happen in Ohio.
• 1:42:43
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Robert Sprague for doubling down on a plea
• 1:42:46
  Speaker 1: I've been making now for weeks and weeks and weeks.
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 1: As we fast approach the November election, Please go vote.
• 1:42:52
  Speaker 1: It's in your own best interest, and notably to vote
• 1:42:54
  Speaker 1: for the Republican side of the ledger rather than the DSSA,
• 1:42:57
  Speaker 1: which is basically a party that once our constitution all right,
• 1:43:01
  Speaker 1: pivoting over to photo ID, there is an effort out
• 1:43:05
  Speaker 1: there to enshrine our already existing in law here in Ohio,
• 1:43:09
  Speaker 1: the obligation to bring a photo ID and enshrined in
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 1: the constitution, which will prevent perhaps future DSA governors to
• 1:43:15
  Speaker 1: the extent we ever elect one from deleting the requirement
• 1:43:18
  Speaker 1: to bring a photo ID. I think that sounds like
• 1:43:19
  Speaker 1: a sound proposition. Where are you on that topic, Robert's break.
• 1:43:23
  Speaker 9: You know, if you agree that it's a common sense
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 9: thing to have to show your photo ID, you know
• 1:43:28
  Speaker 9: you show your photo ID to buy a beer here
• 1:43:30
  Speaker 9: in the state of Ohio, or to buy cigarettes.
• 1:43:33
  Speaker 3: Check in the hotel room or jump on an airplane.
• 1:43:36
  Speaker 9: If you think that this is a common sense security measure,
• 1:43:39
  Speaker 9: then doesn't it make sense that we would want to
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 9: know that people are who they say they are when
• 1:43:45
  Speaker 9: they vote.
• 1:43:46
  Speaker 3: In our state. We have photo ID for in person
• 1:43:49
  Speaker 3: votes already in our state.
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 9: We've had it since twenty twenty two, and it's not
• 1:43:54
  Speaker 9: disenfranchised a single American voter.
• 1:43:56
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry twenty twenty three.
• 1:43:58
  Speaker 9: And by the way you put the most important things
• 1:44:02
  Speaker 9: into your constitution, I can imagine a more important issue
• 1:44:06
  Speaker 9: than making sure that our elections are secure. And by
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 9: putting it into the Ohio Constitution, we are ensuring that
• 1:44:14
  Speaker 9: it is permanently there that photo ID cannot be taken
• 1:44:18
  Speaker 9: away from our elections in the state of Ohio except
• 1:44:22
  Speaker 9: by a vote of the people of the state of Ohio.
• 1:44:26
  Speaker 3: And so this is an insurance policy.
• 1:44:29
  Speaker 9: Put it in our constitution so that we make sure
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 9: that only by a vote of the people will it
• 1:44:33
  Speaker 9: ever be taken away from the people of the state
• 1:44:36
  Speaker 9: of Ohio. Election security is the most important thing that
• 1:44:39
  Speaker 9: we have. We must have secure and honest elections in
• 1:44:42
  Speaker 9: our state.
• 1:44:43
  Speaker 1: And part of secure and honest elections, I know many
• 1:44:46
  Speaker 1: of my listening audience, and sometimes people suggest that the
• 1:44:49
  Speaker 1: conspiracy theory. Others say no, no, no, that the electronic
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 1: voting is aokay, there's nothing wrong with this. But if
• 1:44:55
  Speaker 1: you can't read the code that went into the electronic
• 1:44:57
  Speaker 1: voting systems, and you don't know how the voting is tabula,
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 1: and you don't have a paper ballot that you can
• 1:45:02
  Speaker 1: double check the accuracy on, you at least have swirling
• 1:45:06
  Speaker 1: concerns over those machines. Are you trustworthy of the electronic
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 1: voting in Ohio? And where are you on paper ballots?
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 9: Robert Spragg, Look, it's always it's always trust but verify, Brian.
• 1:45:18
  Speaker 9: And having a separate paper ballot which you vote on, which,
• 1:45:22
  Speaker 9: by the way, is the keyse in probably eighty five
• 1:45:25
  Speaker 9: percent of Ohio counties, that's how you vote.
• 1:45:28
  Speaker 3: Right now.
• 1:45:28
  Speaker 9: You have a separate piece of paper that is generated
• 1:45:31
  Speaker 9: where you can see who you voted for, and then
• 1:45:33
  Speaker 9: it is submitted and then electronically tabulated.
• 1:45:35
  Speaker 3: But you have that separate paper audit trail.
• 1:45:38
  Speaker 5: You can go back and.
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 9: Count the paper and make sure that the machines are
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 9: telling us the truth and that they're secure.
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 3: You know, that's the most secure way to vote.
• 1:45:46
  Speaker 9: But let me tell you a lot of the shenanigans
• 1:45:49
  Speaker 9: and the fraud happen further upstream. When you see people
• 1:45:53
  Speaker 9: trying to register to vote that are not even American citizens,
• 1:45:57
  Speaker 9: like they're doing in New.
• 1:45:58
  Speaker 1: Jersey, Well allows us to pivot over to the election integrity.
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 1: What about the voter list? My understanding is that here
• 1:46:05
  Speaker 1: in Ohio we've done a pretty good job of staying
• 1:46:07
  Speaker 1: on top of keeping dead people off the ranks and
• 1:46:10
  Speaker 1: getting people who moved out of the state off of
• 1:46:12
  Speaker 1: the eligibility list. But is there more work to be done?
• 1:46:15
  Speaker 1: Robert Sprague and what would you do as a secretary
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 1: of state along those lines.
• 1:46:19
  Speaker 9: Yeah, I got to tell you, Frank LeRose, who is
• 1:46:21
  Speaker 9: our current Republican secretary of.
• 1:46:23
  Speaker 3: State, has done a wonderful job.
• 1:46:25
  Speaker 9: I'm not running to tear down the secretary of State's office,
• 1:46:28
  Speaker 9: but I am running to move it forward. And you
• 1:46:30
  Speaker 9: can see in New Jersey that recently the governor came
• 1:46:33
  Speaker 9: out to her credit and said, we've had sixty six
• 1:46:37
  Speaker 9: hundred illegals that have registered to vote in New Jersey
• 1:46:39
  Speaker 9: just from the last year, just in the last year,
• 1:46:43
  Speaker 9: and four hundred of them voted in the election.
• 1:46:47
  Speaker 3: They are going to find more as they go further
• 1:46:49
  Speaker 3: back in the number of years, and these are.
• 1:46:52
  Speaker 9: Thousands of people that have been registered illegally automatic voter
• 1:46:56
  Speaker 9: registration through their BMV because people got a driver's license
• 1:47:01
  Speaker 9: but weren't allowed to vote, were put into their voter systems.
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 9: And we need to move to a front end citizenship
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 9: check to make sure that only American citizens are going
• 1:47:11
  Speaker 9: to be able to vote in our Ohio elections. And look,
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 9: we're making tremendous progress down that road. Still more needs
• 1:47:19
  Speaker 9: to be done, but these two things, making sure that
• 1:47:23
  Speaker 9: only American citizens are able to register to vote and
• 1:47:25
  Speaker 9: then having to show a photo ID when you do vote,
• 1:47:29
  Speaker 9: are the path to secure and honest elections here in
• 1:47:32
  Speaker 9: our state.
• 1:47:33
  Speaker 1: Well, another area that I know my listening audience and
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 1: I personally have a problem with, you know, the concept
• 1:47:37
  Speaker 1: of ballot harvesting. You've got well organized in most notably
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 1: and I'm sadly there's no conservative organizations out there that
• 1:47:44
  Speaker 1: are is organized as the left wing organizations with these
• 1:47:47
  Speaker 1: activists that will go out and sometimes fill out ballots
• 1:47:50
  Speaker 1: for people, but go around and collect ballots from folks
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 1: who might otherwise not have even bothered to cast a vote,
• 1:47:55
  Speaker 1: that's their decision. But drop boxes, you know, we have
• 1:47:58
  Speaker 1: videotape evidence that people dropping off massive stacks of balloted
• 1:48:02
  Speaker 1: ballot boxes. Aren't they a product of COVID nineteen And
• 1:48:06
  Speaker 1: aren't we past COVID now where we can get rid
• 1:48:08
  Speaker 1: of those opportunities for people to build to work this
• 1:48:11
  Speaker 1: system to their advantage.
• 1:48:14
  Speaker 9: Look, I think every one of us has seen a
• 1:48:16
  Speaker 9: video of people trying to stuff a bunch of ballots
• 1:48:19
  Speaker 9: into a valid drop box. And the reality is that
• 1:48:23
  Speaker 9: we have thirty days of early voting here in the
• 1:48:25
  Speaker 9: state of Ohio. Those drop boxes really don't serve a
• 1:48:29
  Speaker 9: purpose now. They simply allow people to ballot harvest and
• 1:48:32
  Speaker 9: what you're describing as a political operative that goes around,
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 9: collects a bunch of ballots, maybe even votes them, and
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 9: then stuff them into the ballot drop box. We have
• 1:48:42
  Speaker 9: laws against that in the state of Ohio, and I
• 1:48:46
  Speaker 9: will tell you you cannot enforce those laws as long
• 1:48:50
  Speaker 9: as those ballot harvesting drop.
• 1:48:52
  Speaker 3: Boxes are around.
• 1:48:53
  Speaker 9: We need to eliminate those ballot harvesting drop boxes in
• 1:48:56
  Speaker 9: our state so that we have secure elections in upholl
• 1:49:00
  Speaker 9: the rule of law in Ohio, and we have thirty
• 1:49:02
  Speaker 9: days of early voting. So if you don't feel comfortable
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 9: putting your ballot in the mail, which I understand, you
• 1:49:10
  Speaker 9: can simply hand it to a Board of Elections member
• 1:49:13
  Speaker 9: during normal business hours thirty days before the election, including weekends.
• 1:49:18
  Speaker 3: So we make it really easy to vote in person
• 1:49:22
  Speaker 3: or by mail in the state of Ohio.
• 1:49:25
  Speaker 9: Let's eliminate the ballot harvesting dropboxes. Those really are only
• 1:49:29
  Speaker 9: needed for the political operatives.
• 1:49:31
  Speaker 1: And in terms of voting by mail, right now advocating
• 1:49:35
  Speaker 1: that we get rid of that option, but what in
• 1:49:37
  Speaker 1: terms of how does it work in terms of a
• 1:49:39
  Speaker 1: photo ID requirement when voting by mail? Robert Spragg, you.
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 9: Know we have a big discrepancy there. I would like
• 1:49:46
  Speaker 9: to see a show photo ID for every vote in
• 1:49:48
  Speaker 9: our state, whether you no matter how you vote, whether
• 1:49:51
  Speaker 9: you vote by mail, whether you vote in person. I
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 9: think that's the right thing to do to have secure
• 1:49:56
  Speaker 9: elections and give people the faith that our elections are secure.
• 1:50:00
  Speaker 3: It makes a lot of sense, I can tell you.
• 1:50:02
  Speaker 3: Just take a personal story.
• 1:50:04
  Speaker 9: We used to have a lot of fraud and our
• 1:50:06
  Speaker 9: tax refunds where people would submit for your tax refund
• 1:50:11
  Speaker 9: in the state of Ohio, and our Department of Tax
• 1:50:13
  Speaker 9: Station said we're going to stop this.
• 1:50:16
  Speaker 3: It's tens of millions of dollars a fraud.
• 1:50:18
  Speaker 9: You have to send in a copy of your driver's
• 1:50:20
  Speaker 9: license when you request your refund check. And the amount
• 1:50:23
  Speaker 9: of fraud went to almost zero after that. And so
• 1:50:28
  Speaker 9: we know that photo ID works, we should implement it
• 1:50:32
  Speaker 9: to make sure that our elections are secure in Ohio.
• 1:50:35
  Speaker 1: Hitting all the right buttons of my listening audience, Robert
• 1:50:37
  Speaker 1: Sprague And finally, you know, there was a time, even
• 1:50:40
  Speaker 1: in my lifetime, where voting day was Election day was
• 1:50:42
  Speaker 1: election day, and that's when you voted. There was no
• 1:50:44
  Speaker 1: early voting. People showed up in person to voter. I
• 1:50:46
  Speaker 1: guess maybe submit an absentee ballot. But bottom line is
• 1:50:51
  Speaker 1: you had a day and we knew the results right away.
• 1:50:54
  Speaker 1: Would making Election Day of State holiday perhaps shift us
• 1:50:57
  Speaker 1: back to that one day to vote kind of phenomen
• 1:51:00
  Speaker 1: on or would we just I know you have advocate
• 1:51:02
  Speaker 1: for making the Election Day of State holiday on your
• 1:51:05
  Speaker 1: advocacy and your point your platform, but how about is
• 1:51:09
  Speaker 1: there an option there where we can go back to
• 1:51:10
  Speaker 1: where it used to be.
• 1:51:12
  Speaker 9: Look, I like in person voting, it's the most secure
• 1:51:15
  Speaker 9: way to vote. If getting to in person voting requires
• 1:51:19
  Speaker 9: a state holiday, I think it's a.
• 1:51:20
  Speaker 3: Really great idea.
• 1:51:22
  Speaker 9: I mean, we could have one day where we all
• 1:51:24
  Speaker 9: focus on our constitution, where we all focus on our republic.
• 1:51:28
  Speaker 3: We take the day off and we participate in the process.
• 1:51:32
  Speaker 3: I think our state would be better off for it.
• 1:51:35
  Speaker 9: And you know, maybe at that point then we could
• 1:51:37
  Speaker 9: eliminate this month longer voting that we have right now.
• 1:51:41
  Speaker 9: But I got to tell you, the number one criteria
• 1:51:43
  Speaker 9: for me is that we have secure elections. And so
• 1:51:46
  Speaker 9: that means that I would love to have people show
• 1:51:49
  Speaker 9: up in person to vote where they have to show
• 1:51:51
  Speaker 9: their photo ID.
• 1:51:52
  Speaker 3: So I'm in favor of anything as long as it
• 1:51:55
  Speaker 3: is secure.
• 1:51:56
  Speaker 9: And I think we've laid that out and we want
• 1:51:58
  Speaker 9: to move to a front end sitsinship check number one.
• 1:52:01
  Speaker 9: Number two, require photo YD for every vote in the
• 1:52:05
  Speaker 9: state of Ohiland. Number three, eliminate these ballot harvesting dropboxes,
• 1:52:09
  Speaker 9: and we will have secure and honest elections in the
• 1:52:12
  Speaker 9: state of Ohioland and we will set the pace for
• 1:52:15
  Speaker 9: the entire country in terms of secure elections.
• 1:52:18
  Speaker 1: Ohio treasure Robert Spraggue soon to be Secretary of State,
• 1:52:21
  Speaker 1: Robert Sprague, just get out and vote in November. Obviously,

  Speaker 1: Ohio dot com. Robert Sprague, thank you for your time today.
• 1:52:41
  Speaker 1: I wish you all the luck in the world and
• 1:52:43
  Speaker 1: congratulations on the seemingly unlimited number of endorsements you've received
• 1:52:47
  Speaker 1: in support of your campaign.
• 1:52:50
  Speaker 3: Thank you very much, Brian, look forward to being on
• 1:52:52
  Speaker 3: again some time anytime.
• 1:52:53
  Speaker 1: Playing blocked.
• 1:52:55
  Speaker 10: Coming up next a guest who is having neighborhood tours
• 1:53:00
  Speaker 10: past his house. You'll be able to tell which one
• 1:53:02
  Speaker 10: it is. It's the inflatable of himself waving to everyone,
• 1:53:07
  Speaker 10: right next to the inflatable declaration of independence the judges.
• 1:53:13
  Speaker 1: Next, Chuck Ingram.
• 1:53:14
  Speaker 10: I'm fifty five KARC the talk station, swinging a miss.
• 1:53:22
  Speaker 1: From Chuck Ingram this morning night. Well, at least he
• 1:53:26
  Speaker 1: gave it an effort. Judge Ennitapolitano Special traffic report every
• 1:53:30
  Speaker 1: week from Chuck Ingram as we segue into one of
• 1:53:33
  Speaker 1: my favorite times of week when we get to talk
• 1:53:35
  Speaker 1: with Judge Endapolitano and get his thoughtful analysis of usually
• 1:53:38
  Speaker 1: things constitutional. And it looks like we're on that track today.
• 1:53:41
  Speaker 1: Welcome back your honor. Thank you so much for your
• 1:53:43
  Speaker 1: time with my listeners in me every week.
• 1:53:45
  Speaker 7: Thank you, Brian. It was a pleasure. No no matter
• 1:53:48
  Speaker 7: what Ingram says, I'd like to see this inflatable, not
• 1:53:51
  Speaker 7: of myself, but of the Declaration of Independence.
• 1:53:54
  Speaker 1: Wouldn't that be nice? Since apparently the Smithsonian is no
• 1:53:58
  Speaker 1: longer offering pro American Ormerican historic exhibits in the National
• 1:54:02
  Speaker 1: History Museum in Washington. Talked about that earlier. It's kind
• 1:54:06
  Speaker 1: of an undermined and I just wanted to get your
• 1:54:07
  Speaker 1: reaction along those lines. This creeping socialism we find ourselves
• 1:54:11
  Speaker 1: embroiled in. We have the Michigan gubernatorial candidate has been
• 1:54:15
  Speaker 1: chosen by the voters in Michigan a one percent advantage
• 1:54:19
  Speaker 1: abdul L Saiad had over Hailey Stevens, the traditional Democrat
• 1:54:23
  Speaker 1: establishment back candidate. Abdul L sayed he's a DSA guy.
• 1:54:28
  Speaker 1: Judgment paulatonis Since we're talking about the constitution, and the
• 1:54:30
  Speaker 1: erosion of the words of the Constitution brought to us
• 1:54:34
  Speaker 1: by various politicians over time. The DSA, based on their
• 1:54:38
  Speaker 1: own platform, is embracing the deletion of the eradication of
• 1:54:43
  Speaker 1: the Constitution of the United States of America, elimination of
• 1:54:46
  Speaker 1: the Senate election of the President by the House of Representatives.
• 1:54:50
  Speaker 1: I mean, there's a multitude of things that you would
• 1:54:51
  Speaker 1: need to just eliminate the document. Are you worried that
• 1:54:56
  Speaker 1: this is truly going to take hold the l sayeds
• 1:54:58
  Speaker 1: and the zorhanman dami in our country? Is it too
• 1:55:01
  Speaker 1: late or where are we just initial reaction.
• 1:55:04
  Speaker 7: I am not worried about it, because the structure of
• 1:55:07
  Speaker 7: mending the Constitution is far too cumbersome for them to
• 1:55:11
  Speaker 7: do that. However, they do not believe in private property.
• 1:55:16
  Speaker 7: They would seriously undermine basic American values. I guess I'm
• 1:55:23
  Speaker 7: chickening out. I'm saying they can say whatever they want
• 1:55:26
  Speaker 7: as long as they're not successful. But for them to
• 1:55:28
  Speaker 7: be successful would require constitutional amendments. That's two thirds of
• 1:55:34
  Speaker 7: the Congress and three quarters of the House of Representatives.
• 1:55:37
  Speaker 7: So I don't see this nonsense happening in your lifetime
• 1:55:42
  Speaker 7: or mine. But It is telling that the Democratic Party
• 1:55:46
  Speaker 7: is suffering like this. I think we'll learn more about
• 1:55:51
  Speaker 7: it in November. It looks like doctor l said, I
• 1:55:54
  Speaker 7: think that's his name is going to win and then
• 1:55:58
  Speaker 7: he runs against a Trump loving, big government, right wing,
• 1:56:05
  Speaker 7: neo Khan War loving or Republican in the battleground state
• 1:56:10
  Speaker 7: of Michigan. I don't know what the outcome is going
• 1:56:12
  Speaker 7: to be. The Republicans are rejoicing when these progressives are
• 1:56:16
  Speaker 7: the Democratic nominee is because they think that that will
• 1:56:20
  Speaker 7: drive middle of the road of voters independence, even moderate
• 1:56:23
  Speaker 7: Democrats away from the Democratic.
• 1:56:26
  Speaker 1: Candidate and Mike Rodgers. Is that Michigan Republican Canada as
• 1:56:30
  Speaker 1: they go into November voter turnout. It's important, of course.
• 1:56:33
  Speaker 1: Now the eradication is I like to sum up the
• 1:56:37
  Speaker 1: DSA of the Constitution. I appreciate your point on that,
• 1:56:40
  Speaker 1: because the Constitution itself does have rules, limitations, and mechanisms
• 1:56:44
  Speaker 1: to change it are altered amended. We've been down that
• 1:56:46
  Speaker 1: road before. But that's the rules they would have to
• 1:56:49
  Speaker 1: play by in order to bring about the changes they want,
• 1:56:51
  Speaker 1: and I think you're right that would be completely unsuccessful.
• 1:56:54
  Speaker 1: So absent revolution, they're stuck with the words, but that
• 1:56:58
  Speaker 1: doesn't mean that we're going to take them seriously, read them,
• 1:57:00
  Speaker 1: or abide by them. We saw this and this has
• 1:57:02
  Speaker 1: been a topic. You and I have talked about it,
• 1:57:03
  Speaker 1: and certainly the subject matter of part of your column
• 1:57:05
  Speaker 1: which comes out tonight, the normalcy of American wars. Of course,
• 1:57:09
  Speaker 1: we have the Declaration of War, which rests in the
• 1:57:11
  Speaker 1: power of Congress. We have the War Powers Resolution, which
• 1:57:14
  Speaker 1: you and I can agree is unconstitutional, but it's there,
• 1:57:17
  Speaker 1: and we did use that back after the September eleventh attacks.
• 1:57:20
  Speaker 1: But we also passed the Patriot Act, which is an
• 1:57:23
  Speaker 1: erosion or deletion practically the Fourth Amendment of the United States.
• 1:57:26
  Speaker 1: So things nefarious can come about by even well people
• 1:57:31
  Speaker 1: who are advocating that we need to protect ourselves against
• 1:57:34
  Speaker 1: enemies who might seek to destroy us by deleting the
• 1:57:38
  Speaker 1: Fourth Amendment. As an example, that's never been tested in court,
• 1:57:42
  Speaker 1: either has it.
• 1:57:44
  Speaker 7: The Patriot Act has not been tested in court. It
• 1:57:48
  Speaker 7: has been tested in federal district courts, where five different
• 1:57:52
  Speaker 7: federal district court judges ruled different parts of it unconstitutional,
• 1:57:56
  Speaker 7: but the government chose not to appeal those decisions so
• 1:58:00
  Speaker 7: as to limit them just to the geographic area of
• 1:58:03
  Speaker 7: the jurisdiction of those courts for fear that the courts
• 1:58:07
  Speaker 7: would be upelled. So there's no appellate there's no circar
• 1:58:10
  Speaker 7: court opinion on the Patriot Act. Look, my column with
• 1:58:15
  Speaker 7: prior columns makes the argument of war leads to a
• 1:58:19
  Speaker 7: lot of bad things domestically increase in the size of
• 1:58:23
  Speaker 7: the federal government and decrease in civil liberties. The first
• 1:58:27
  Speaker 7: American War. Ask this at a cocktail party. Nobody will
• 1:58:30
  Speaker 7: get it right. They'll say, I don't know, War of
• 1:58:33
  Speaker 7: eighteen twelve. What's the first American war after the Revolution? Ah,
• 1:58:37
  Speaker 7: it's the war against the French in seventeen ninety seven, undeclared,
• 1:58:42
  Speaker 7: initiated by John Adams. And at the same time, the
• 1:58:46
  Speaker 7: Alien and Sedition Acts, which suppressed free speech was enacted
• 1:58:51
  Speaker 7: World War II. Suppression of the free speech of Italian
• 1:58:56
  Speaker 7: Americans and Japanese Americans never enacted, approved.
• 1:59:01
  Speaker 1: By the Supreme Court.
• 1:59:03
  Speaker 7: The nine to eleven Patriot Act the government can spy
• 1:59:07
  Speaker 7: on you without warrants, as I indicated, never approved by
• 1:59:11
  Speaker 7: the Supreme Court, still followed wildly by the Feds. So
• 1:59:16
  Speaker 7: these domestic problems triggered by war have a way, these
• 1:59:22
  Speaker 7: domestic suppressions have a way of staying with us. Part
• 1:59:25
  Speaker 7: of the Alien and Sedition Acts is still law today. Really, Yeah, well,
• 1:59:33
  Speaker 7: the sedition part which was reincorporated in the Sedition Act
• 1:59:38
  Speaker 7: of nineteen seventeen. It's the same statute that just re
• 1:59:42
  Speaker 7: enacted at one hundred and fifty years later.
• 1:59:46
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 1:59:47
  Speaker 1: Well, and never let a good crisis go to waste? Right,
• 1:59:49
  Speaker 1: isn't that really what this boils down to, using war
• 1:59:51
  Speaker 1: as a mechanism to erode our freedoms and liberties.
• 1:59:54
  Speaker 3: Correct?
• 1:59:55
  Speaker 7: Correct? So how are liberties being eroded today? You go
• 2:00:01
  Speaker 7: up across the street from Columbia University and stand on
• 2:00:04
  Speaker 7: a soapbox and start preaching the fairness of a Palestinian state,
• 2:00:11
  Speaker 7: and see what happens to you. The police will come
• 2:00:13
  Speaker 7: and take you away, and then if you come back,
• 2:00:15
  Speaker 7: they will take you away and bring you to a jail.
• 2:00:19
  Speaker 1: Underwall.
• 2:00:20
  Speaker 7: We'll say that that, well, that you're giving materially to
• 2:00:23
  Speaker 7: a terrorist organization.
• 2:00:25
  Speaker 1: And it's by virtue of the declaration of them as
• 2:00:27
  Speaker 1: a terrorist organization that they gained that ability to arrest you.
• 2:00:31
  Speaker 7: Correct, correct?
• 2:00:33
  Speaker 1: Is there any law in there?
• 2:00:34
  Speaker 7: And read the Declaration of Independence? And see what happens.
• 2:00:36
  Speaker 7: So I don't think they'll arrest you as they once did.
• 2:00:40
  Speaker 7: Woodrow Wilson famously arrested Princeton students for reading the Declaration
• 2:00:44
  Speaker 7: of Independence allowed outside of Trenton, New Jersey, draft offices
• 2:00:48
  Speaker 7: during World War One, claiming it was interfering with a
• 2:00:52
  Speaker 7: governmental function. They were arrested but never prosecuted.
• 2:00:57
  Speaker 3: Well.
• 2:00:57
  Speaker 1: And then when it comes to Declaration of warming and
• 2:01:00
  Speaker 1: read the words, you know, Congress declares war or not.
• 2:01:02
  Speaker 1: The president doesn't have a unilateral ability to do that.
• 2:01:04
  Speaker 1: And yet we find ourselves and yet another conflict. But listen,
• 2:01:07
  Speaker 1: this is not a Donald Trump problem. This is a
• 2:01:10
  Speaker 1: problem that we have in America. Generally speaking, Democrat presidents
• 2:01:13
  Speaker 1: have done it, Republican presidents have done it. Here we
• 2:01:15
  Speaker 1: go again, the war. The bombs are dropping. The deliberative process,
• 2:01:19
  Speaker 1: I think is maybe the reason the founders put declaration
• 2:01:22
  Speaker 1: of war is the power of Congress holds, because maybe
• 2:01:25
  Speaker 1: if we had a deliberative process before we made the
• 2:01:28
  Speaker 1: decision to start dropping bombs on Iran, then we might
• 2:01:31
  Speaker 1: have talked about the potential closure of the straight of
• 2:01:33
  Speaker 1: horror moves, which has been a looming threat that they
• 2:01:35
  Speaker 1: have had in their their field of vision now for decades.
• 2:01:38
  Speaker 1: From what I've been told, they just never had an
• 2:01:40
  Speaker 1: opportunity to actually go and shut down the straight of
• 2:01:43
  Speaker 1: horror moves for fear of international backlash.
• 2:01:46
  Speaker 7: How could the Pentagon not have foreseen what would happened
• 2:01:50
  Speaker 7: in the super Highway of oil if we continued to
• 2:01:55
  Speaker 7: bomb Iran? How could they not have foreseen that? And
• 2:01:58
  Speaker 7: how could the Treasury Department have not told them the
• 2:02:01
  Speaker 7: consequences to the average American consumer of the closure.
• 2:02:06
  Speaker 1: Of Hormuz Well, and the other component that was missing
• 2:02:09
  Speaker 1: in all this is the tenacity of the revolutionary Guard.
• 2:02:13
  Speaker 1: The fundamentalist religious nature of their government was not likely
• 2:02:18
  Speaker 1: to collapse when you lop the head off of it,
• 2:02:21
  Speaker 1: and I think they thought they had another Venezuela on
• 2:02:22
  Speaker 1: their hands. You get rid of the leader, you can
• 2:02:24
  Speaker 1: topple the government. That doesn't happen in a country like Iran,
• 2:02:27
  Speaker 1: where it's religious fundamentalism.
• 2:02:29
  Speaker 7: You're right, You're right. The religious fundamentalism, the five thousand years,
• 2:02:35
  Speaker 7: five thousand years of Persian society and the traditions imbued
• 2:02:40
  Speaker 7: in everybody in that society, from elites to a blue collar,
• 2:02:46
  Speaker 7: uneducated people, is one of never giving in and the
• 2:02:51
  Speaker 7: White House maybe understands that now, but I don't think
• 2:02:54
  Speaker 7: they understood it when they allowed Benjamin Nettignahoo to talk
• 2:02:59
  Speaker 7: Donald Trump into starting this war back in June, more
• 2:03:03
  Speaker 7: than a year ago. Thirteen days in June forty or
• 2:03:08
  Speaker 7: fifty days in February, March, and April, and now on again,
• 2:03:14
  Speaker 7: off again, on again, off again in the summer. Yeah,
• 2:03:17
  Speaker 7: none of their objectives has been achieved. Rampant inflation in
• 2:03:24
  Speaker 7: the United States, no ability to get oil into or
• 2:03:28
  Speaker 7: out of.
• 2:03:28
  Speaker 1: Hormuz, and a concern over the depletion of our military
• 2:03:33
  Speaker 1: hardware for times when we may need it down the road.
• 2:03:35
  Speaker 1: Complications which, again any deliberative process may have been highlighted,
• 2:03:40
  Speaker 1: but fundamentally the words mean what they say, and I'm
• 2:03:44
  Speaker 1: with you on that particular issue. Dog Judge Edvenapolitano, I
• 2:03:48
  Speaker 1: don't think this we should be their absent declaration of
• 2:03:51
  Speaker 1: war or at least the exercise the authoritation used the
• 2:03:54
  Speaker 1: military force. They at least passed one of those, after
• 2:03:56
  Speaker 1: nine to eleven.
• 2:03:58
  Speaker 7: They debated, it, debated, they passed it. I didn't like
• 2:04:02
  Speaker 7: the wording because it lasted for twenty five years. However
• 2:04:07
  Speaker 7: it did legally authorize the Bush administration to commence, you know,
• 2:04:13
  Speaker 7: two fruitless wars, Iraq and Afghanistan. Jeez, how did we
• 2:04:17
  Speaker 7: end up with in Afghanistan? Did we get rid of
• 2:04:19
  Speaker 7: the Taliban or did they come back?
• 2:04:21
  Speaker 3: Yes, sarcastic, I know you are.
• 2:04:23
  Speaker 1: And that's a great illustration of how difficult it is
• 2:04:26
  Speaker 1: to fight off religious fundamentalists with AK forty sevens hiding
• 2:04:29
  Speaker 1: out in mountains when you've got the largest military on
• 2:04:32
  Speaker 1: the planet falling on the heels of the second largest
• 2:04:34
  Speaker 1: military in the planet giving it a shot for about
• 2:04:36
  Speaker 1: a decade the Soviet Union before pulling the plug.
• 2:04:40
  Speaker 7: Right, we should have learned the lesson at the Soviet
• 2:04:43
  Speaker 7: Union's expense.
• 2:04:45
  Speaker 1: We did not, Judge Edna Polatina, Judging Freedom's podcast is
• 2:04:48
  Speaker 1: always having the segment on finding out who you're gonna
• 2:04:50
  Speaker 1: be talking to today and who might that be today?
• 2:04:54
  Speaker 7: I have Colonel Douglas McGregor at two point fifteen and
• 2:04:58
  Speaker 7: Bill Geraldi, the SA agent at three o'clock. They're both superstars.
• 2:05:04
  Speaker 7: McGregor was once in the Trump administration, but they didn't
• 2:05:10
  Speaker 7: like his anti war views.
• 2:05:12
  Speaker 1: About that, Judge edit of PAULA time and we'll do
• 2:05:14
  Speaker 1: this again next Wednesday. I always enjoy it, have a
• 2:05:16
  Speaker 1: wonderful week between now and then. My friend back at
• 2:05:19
  Speaker 1: you and my best to Ingram. No matter what he says,
• 2:05:22
  Speaker 1: I always passed the logs, Sir, I really do take care. Okaway,
• 2:05:25
  Speaker 1: We're gonna give some love doft CARCD talk station. Good
• 2:05:30
  Speaker 1: day for the American veteran here. And if I think
• 2:05:31
  Speaker 1: I have Carsey Morning Show, of course he had Steve
• 2:05:33
  Speaker 1: Bells on the Klamork County Veteran Services and the financial
• 2:05:35
  Speaker 1: assistance program they're offering. And now we get the return
• 2:05:38
  Speaker 1: of and thank god for Cheryl Pop and everybody involved
• 2:05:41
  Speaker 1: with Honor Flight tri State Honor Flight tri State dot org.
• 2:05:44
  Speaker 1: Welcome back to Cheryl Pop. I hope you're doing well today.
• 2:05:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Good morning, Brian, Good morning. We've got a new
• 2:05:51
  Speaker 4: thing that we wanted to make sure that all of
• 2:05:53
  Speaker 4: the veterans over age sixty five who have not applied
• 2:05:56
  Speaker 4: before because they didn't have a guardian, we want to
• 2:05:59
  Speaker 4: make sure that they know that they can apply. We
• 2:06:02
  Speaker 4: have hundreds of guardians qualified guardians to go with these
• 2:06:05
  Speaker 4: vets and as a special initiative, if a VET is
• 2:06:09
  Speaker 4: a combat bet, we can pair them up with another
• 2:06:11
  Speaker 4: yonder combat bet who was deployed to the Middle East
• 2:06:14
  Speaker 4: from the same branch of service. Oh, no, kidding, And
• 2:06:17
  Speaker 4: they can share their experiences all day. And we've been
• 2:06:21
  Speaker 4: doing this for like a year already, and it's been
• 2:06:23
  Speaker 4: fantastic for both veterans because of their shared experiences in combat.
• 2:06:28
  Speaker 4: Just perfect. But a lot of veterans have their own
• 2:06:31
  Speaker 4: family guardians now, and we just wanted to make sure
• 2:06:34
  Speaker 4: that all veterans know they can apply. Whether they have
• 2:06:36
  Speaker 4: a guardian or not, we'll fix them up.
• 2:06:39
  Speaker 1: Oh that's wonderful. I Honor Flight fixed me up with
• 2:06:42
  Speaker 1: the World War Two veteran as well as a Korean
• 2:06:45
  Speaker 1: War veteran. I'm sorry, Police action veteran. Going back to
• 2:06:48
  Speaker 1: my conversation with Judge Balton anyway, but they neither of
• 2:06:52
  Speaker 1: them brought a guardian with them. So I was assigned
• 2:06:54
  Speaker 1: in both of those flights, and what an amazing opportunity.
• 2:06:57
  Speaker 1: So I guess are they always going to be assigned
• 2:07:01
  Speaker 1: veterans from this point forward if they don't bring their
• 2:07:03
  Speaker 1: own or are there going to be others who are
• 2:07:06
  Speaker 1: still able to be a guardian?
• 2:07:08
  Speaker 9: Oh?
• 2:07:09
  Speaker 4: Sure, we're still welcoming the family guardians, but we were
• 2:07:12
  Speaker 4: just thinking, what if people aren't signing up because they
• 2:07:15
  Speaker 4: don't have a guardian. You know, it is an open
• 2:07:19
  Speaker 4: program whether you have a guardian or not, and we
• 2:07:21
  Speaker 4: wanted to make sure that they know that they absolutely
• 2:07:23
  Speaker 4: will be escorted by a guardian and maybe even a
• 2:07:26
  Speaker 4: combat guardian now if they you know, if they choose,
• 2:07:29
  Speaker 4: if they're a combat veteran themselves. But we have family
• 2:07:32
  Speaker 4: members that are have been you know, more and more
• 2:07:35
  Speaker 4: family members are taking these Vietnam veterans, and we know
• 2:07:38
  Speaker 4: there's people out there, there's vets out there that aren't
• 2:07:40
  Speaker 4: being served because they thought they absolutely had to have
• 2:07:44
  Speaker 4: a guardian. So that was the announcement this morning, is
• 2:07:46
  Speaker 4: that we wanted them to really know that you just
• 2:07:49
  Speaker 4: apply and we'll take care of them.
• 2:07:51
  Speaker 1: That's wonderful. And of course the guardians are really important
• 2:07:55
  Speaker 1: because quite often the veterans themselves are you know, elderly,
• 2:07:59
  Speaker 1: their seniors and them need a little bit of assistance
• 2:08:01
  Speaker 1: getting around right.
• 2:08:03
  Speaker 4: And a guardian is you know, just like a campaign.
• 2:08:05
  Speaker 4: It's not a sport, you know, it's just wanting to
• 2:08:07
  Speaker 4: be with you all day, like paired up with somebody,
• 2:08:10
  Speaker 4: you make a new friend, and sometimes these guys make
• 2:08:12
  Speaker 4: friends forever from this, and it's just because of the
• 2:08:15
  Speaker 4: shared experience. Even if you're not a combat veteran, a
• 2:08:18
  Speaker 4: younger combat veteran, we have hundreds of these qualified veterans
• 2:08:21
  Speaker 4: as guardians that are just waiting for a VET to
• 2:08:25
  Speaker 4: come along because maybe their family member has passed.
• 2:08:28
  Speaker 2: Away or are not able to go.
• 2:08:29
  Speaker 4: So they're patriots and they want to go with these veterans,
• 2:08:33
  Speaker 4: they truly are.
• 2:08:34
  Speaker 1: And of course Honorfly tri State started because they wanted
• 2:08:36
  Speaker 1: to get the World War Two veterans before they passed
• 2:08:38
  Speaker 1: away over to see the World War Two memorial in
• 2:08:41
  Speaker 1: their name. And of course our World War II community
• 2:08:44
  Speaker 1: is almost completely exhausted. We've been you've been taking North
• 2:08:47
  Speaker 1: Korean war veterans there for a long time, and the
• 2:08:50
  Speaker 1: number of Korean War veterans is now getting lower and lower.
• 2:08:53
  Speaker 1: So it's is it primarily now Vietnam veterans that are
• 2:08:55
  Speaker 1: going to honor fly?
• 2:08:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, each flight's about ninety percent, you know, Vietnam veterans now,
• 2:09:01
  Speaker 4: and we know what the welcome they got home. They
• 2:09:03
  Speaker 4: didn't get any welcome. So that's why this is so
• 2:09:05
  Speaker 4: important for us to keep on going with our mission.
• 2:09:08
  Speaker 4: Because we have a waiting list of Vietnam veterans that
• 2:09:11
  Speaker 4: are ready to go, some of them with guardians, some without.
• 2:09:14
  Speaker 4: But the notice today is that we really want any
• 2:09:18
  Speaker 4: veteran to sign up. Sixty five and over. You're eligible,
• 2:09:21
  Speaker 4: whether you have a guardian or not.
• 2:09:24
  Speaker 1: Amen, and you prioritize by birth date, correct, So the
• 2:09:27
  Speaker 1: older veteran, yeah, I just want to make sense.
• 2:09:29
  Speaker 4: So yeah, no matter when you sign up, the older
• 2:09:33
  Speaker 4: vets go first. We take eighty eight on each flight,
• 2:09:35
  Speaker 4: So we start at the top of the list, if
• 2:09:37
  Speaker 4: you will, and go down until we find eighty eight
• 2:09:39
  Speaker 4: that are available for the flight date. But you have
• 2:09:42
  Speaker 4: to get on the list. If you're not on the
• 2:09:43
  Speaker 4: list and not in our database, we can't find you.
• 2:09:46
  Speaker 1: Amen.
• 2:09:46
  Speaker 4: We go to vfw's, we go everywhere. We do as
• 2:09:49
  Speaker 4: much publicity as we can. But we know there's guys
• 2:09:51
  Speaker 4: out and women out there that just are not signing
• 2:09:54
  Speaker 4: up because they don't have a guardian. So that's our
• 2:09:56
  Speaker 4: message today is to just sign up.
• 2:09:58
  Speaker 1: Well, we'll take it from there, and you know it's
• 2:10:00
  Speaker 1: easy to do this. It's honor flight trice date dot org.
• 2:10:03
  Speaker 1: So if there's someone listening right now who knows a veteran,
• 2:10:06
  Speaker 1: and think about a senior veteran, perhaps the Vietnam veteran,
• 2:10:09
  Speaker 1: and maybe they don't listen to the morning show, or
• 2:10:11
  Speaker 1: maybe they aren't in touch with veteran organizations or other
• 2:10:14
  Speaker 1: areas where they might run into the concept of Honor
• 2:10:16
  Speaker 1: Flight tri st date, just referm to the website Honor
• 2:10:18
  Speaker 1: Flight tri State and tell them they are more than
• 2:10:20
  Speaker 1: welcome to join in this celebration of their service to
• 2:10:23
  Speaker 1: our country.
• 2:10:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's absolutely perfect. We take care of everything. The
• 2:10:28
  Speaker 4: veteran never pays. Everything's free to the veteran, and that's
• 2:10:31
  Speaker 4: why we do this, to show the gratitude to the
• 2:10:34
  Speaker 4: veterans for their service. And it's one of the highlights
• 2:10:38
  Speaker 4: of the Cincinnati area is how much how many patriots
• 2:10:42
  Speaker 4: are around here. I mean, it's just amazing. I listen
• 2:10:44
  Speaker 4: to your show every day with all of your different
• 2:10:46
  Speaker 4: veteran groups. I mean, we're amazing around here. We are,
• 2:10:50
  Speaker 4: and I think that the veterans need to know that
• 2:10:54
  Speaker 4: grateful to.
• 2:10:54
  Speaker 1: Them, as demonstrated by every return home Honor flight at
• 2:10:58
  Speaker 1: CVG the Welcome Home starin there is a pent up
• 2:11:01
  Speaker 1: demand among at least my listening audience, so folks that
• 2:11:04
  Speaker 1: show up there to celebrate and salute the veterans that
• 2:11:06
  Speaker 1: are on those flights. The places packed with people just
• 2:11:09
  Speaker 1: wanting to be somewhere where they can show their support
• 2:11:11
  Speaker 1: for the American veteran, most notably the Vietnam veterans.
• 2:11:15
  Speaker 4: It's not exaggeration to say there're thousands. Because of the
• 2:11:19
  Speaker 4: police over its at Gritter Cincinnati. That parking lot is jammed,
• 2:11:22
  Speaker 4: and they know how many people can fit in a
• 2:11:24
  Speaker 4: certain area. And I said, well, how many this time?
• 2:11:26
  Speaker 4: And they said, well, there's eighteen hundreds. I believe it.
• 2:11:29
  Speaker 4: You can't walk through there, red white and blue flags.
• 2:11:33
  Speaker 4: Thank you, hugs, everything. I mean, we just need to
• 2:11:36
  Speaker 4: do this for these people that just came back with
• 2:11:38
  Speaker 4: absolutely no.
• 2:11:39
  Speaker 1: Welcome home exactly.
• 2:11:41
  Speaker 4: That's and the younger vet's the same way. They come
• 2:11:43
  Speaker 4: home alone on an airplane, you know, from the Middle East,
• 2:11:46
  Speaker 4: and we need to get them on his guardians so
• 2:11:49
  Speaker 4: that they can you.
• 2:11:50
  Speaker 2: Know, go with these other veterans.
• 2:11:52
  Speaker 1: Thank you for their service and a welcome dose of
• 2:11:54
  Speaker 1: patriotism for everyone who shows up. All right before we
