0:02
Speaker 1: Scient and more.
0:03
Speaker 2: Megan now making America great again than I've ever.
0:07
Speaker 3: Been making mornings great again. First thing today on the
0:11
Speaker 3: Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas.
0:14
Speaker 4: We've been writing about.
0:15
Speaker 5: Everything on the day we celebrate, specifically the gifts God
0:39
Speaker 5: has bestowed upon you and the knowledge of what those are,
0:44
Speaker 5: the application of them vigorously to a grateful constituency so
0:49
Speaker 5: that you really don't need to worry about what.
0:51
Speaker 6: The gnattering nabobs of negativism say about you. It is
0:55
Speaker 6: a tedsy across the Talk Media Network. Thank you for
0:58
Speaker 6: letting me be of service to you. I am the
1:00
Speaker 6: aforementioned Joe on a program where I will tell you
1:04
Speaker 6: what went on last night. I'll tell you what I
1:06
Speaker 6: see in the tea leaves, and most importantly, I want
1:09
Speaker 6: to hear how it is impacting you. At four three
1:12
Speaker 6: four eight eight two four two one seven. You can
1:17
Speaker 6: text message there. You can traditional phone calls to that
1:22
Speaker 6: as well, however you like to do it, or if
1:25
Speaker 6: you prefer the traditional email account JT in the Morning
1:30
Speaker 6: Radio at gmail dot com. That's how we roll this morning.
1:35
Speaker 6: President Trump Exclusive sit down, just making the case that
1:39
Speaker 6: the head of CBS News is just a maga influencer
1:44
Speaker 6: pretending to be a journalist. Oh, the left is just
1:47
Speaker 6: unhinged tony decompolos, sitting down long, just flowing conversation with
1:54
Speaker 6: the President, not asking illegitimate questions. But the left is
1:58
Speaker 6: just beside its as it will be. I mean, that's
2:01
Speaker 6: how it keeps itself company. Really, they sit beside themselves
2:05
Speaker 6: and they handering over President Trump's very existence. And it's
2:12
Speaker 6: sad to watch it really is, but it is what
2:15
Speaker 6: it is. What it is. And you know, to bark
2:19
Speaker 6: at the moon is considered well impolitic in some communities. Nuts,
2:26
Speaker 6: So we're not going to bark at the moon. We
2:28
Speaker 6: just accept the fact that the left does it. The
2:30
Speaker 6: problem is that enough people are busy to the point
2:35
Speaker 6: where they only have fifteen twenty minutes every morning or
2:39
Speaker 6: afternoon to consume some of the stuff. So what they
2:43
Speaker 6: wind up getting is just the narrative from the unhinged left.
2:48
Speaker 6: So or try to debunk as quickly as possible all
2:52
Speaker 6: the things that they say the president's doing, which it
2:55
Speaker 6: has been our experience since twenty fifteen or so that
2:58
Speaker 6: none of it is actually what's going on. But that's okay.
3:02
Speaker 6: It's all about winning elections, and if you were truly
3:06
Speaker 6: honest with your constituents, with your voters, you would tell
3:09
Speaker 6: them that this is just a paid political ad for
3:12
Speaker 6: a party. President Trump expressed solidarity with Iranian citizens protesting
3:18
Speaker 6: the country's leadership, encouraging them to maintain pressure on the
3:22
Speaker 6: Ayatola to all Iranian patriots keep protesting, he said during
3:28
Speaker 6: a speech to the Detroit Economic Club. Meanwhile, German Chancellor
3:34
Speaker 6: Friedrich Mertz said that he assumes that Iran's theocracy is
3:40
Speaker 6: quote in the final days and weeks. I assume we're
3:44
Speaker 6: now witnessing the final days of weeks of this regime,
3:48
Speaker 6: Merch said, in a trip to India. The head of
3:51
Speaker 6: Iran's judiciary signaled this morning that there will be fast
3:56
Speaker 6: trials and speedy executions ahead for those detained nationwide protests,
4:01
Speaker 6: despite a warning from President Trump. The comments from Chief
4:05
Speaker 6: Golosamine mohense Ajai come as activists had warned hangings of
4:12
Speaker 6: those detained could come soon. So far, the US based
4:18
Speaker 6: Human Rights Activists News Agency is reporting two thousand, five
4:23
Speaker 6: hundred and seventy one dead. White House Special Envoy Steve
4:28
Speaker 6: Whitkoff is reported to have met privately with reze Paalavi,
4:33
Speaker 6: the Crown Prince of Iran, the son of the Shah
4:38
Speaker 6: who was deposed in the nineteen seventy nine Theocratic Revolution.
4:43
Speaker 6: President Trump said Tuesday his administration will stop federal funding
4:48
Speaker 6: going to cities and states that have declared themselves sanctuaries
4:52
Speaker 6: for illegal aliens beginning next month. Starting February first, We're
4:57
Speaker 6: not making any payments to sanctuary cities or states that
5:01
Speaker 6: have sanctuary cities in them, because they do everything possible
5:06
Speaker 6: to protect criminals at the expense of American citizens. Multiple
5:11
Speaker 6: Americans were detained in Venezuela and have been released, according
5:15
Speaker 6: to the administration quote, we welcome the release of detained
5:18
Speaker 6: Americans in Venezuela. Statement from the State Department said this
5:22
Speaker 6: is an important step in the right direction by the
5:25
Speaker 6: interim authorities. House Oversight Committee announced Tuesday will try to
5:30
Speaker 6: hold former President Bill Clinton in contempt of Congress after
5:34
Speaker 6: he failed to appear for a deposition as part of
5:37
Speaker 6: his probe into the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein,
5:42
Speaker 6: and the Justice Department does not believe there is currently
5:45
Speaker 6: any basis to open a civil rights case over the
5:50
Speaker 6: death of the activists in Milwaukee. Our friends at First

Speaker 9: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
8:07
Speaker 9: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I'm
8:13
Speaker 9: doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized
8:19
Speaker 9: curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program.
8:24
Speaker 9: It makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation
8:28
Speaker 9: is a key component to our overall health. The Mayo
8:32
Speaker 9: Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has
8:37
Speaker 9: antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent cancer
8:43
Speaker 9: or at least slow the spread of cancer, and in
8:46
Speaker 9: many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy
8:51

10:01
Speaker 10: Growing up on a farm in Tennessee. I've been fascinated
10:03
Speaker 10: with animals. I'm not only in all of their beauty
10:05
Speaker 10: and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic. Just look
10:08
Speaker 10: at the birds who gather supplies to build nests, or
10:11
Speaker 10: Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,
10:14
Speaker 10: or penguins who travel up to five hundred miles to
10:17
Speaker 10: secure food for their families, or bush babies whose impressive
10:20
Speaker 10: jump allows them to navigate the trees and the wild
10:22
Speaker 10: in search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared
10:25
Speaker 10: by our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are
10:28
Speaker 10: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
10:32
Speaker 10: they also perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep
10:35
Speaker 10: us safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of
10:37
Speaker 10: whom suffer from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them
10:41
Speaker 10: when there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs
10:43
Speaker 10: have a variety of highly trained roles that contribute to
10:46

11:31
Speaker 16: costs go to heating and cooling. Energy efficiency isn't just
11:35

11:39

Speaker 2: As a family member or friend, you may be the
12:32
Speaker 2: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
12:35

13:12
Speaker 4: For you.
13:13
Speaker 3: From Joe Thomas, it's first thing.
13:15
Speaker 6: Today, Ted, stay morning. They're letting us be of service
13:21
Speaker 6: to you, and we mean that. I know that a
13:23
Speaker 6: lot of folks, you know, it's pabulum and they'll serve whatever.
13:27
Speaker 6: You know. The whole point of doing this is to
13:30
Speaker 6: help your day get underway. There's no Yeah, it sounds
13:36
Speaker 6: like there's a political agenda, because the news of the
13:39
Speaker 6: day has to be put into the proper context, which
13:44
Speaker 6: means there has to be discussion of people who are
13:48
Speaker 6: elected to political office. And you know, apologies to those
13:54
Speaker 6: who think I'm pitching for a team, I get nothing.
14:00
Speaker 6: I just want you to have the right information who
14:04
Speaker 6: you vote for. I think there is relative peril to
14:10
Speaker 6: voting for people who are going to substantively change the
14:13
Speaker 6: way the country operates. And we see where we've gotten
14:19
Speaker 6: to after decades, decades of saying, oh, well, you know
14:23
Speaker 6: it was their turn to when they've been on the outside,
14:26
Speaker 6: and no, I mean this is serious obtrusions into how
14:33
Speaker 6: the country is supposed to operate. And we've watched the
14:39
Speaker 6: waxy build up continue over time, and I refer to
14:46
Speaker 6: it that way because, to be fair, what you're seeing
14:54
Speaker 6: is like a piece of furniture that has been cleaned
14:58
Speaker 6: continuously by a crappy furniture polish, a lot of you know,
15:05
Speaker 6: waxes and not real good cleaning substances, oils and things
15:13
Speaker 6: like that that are really designed to care for wood,
15:16
Speaker 6: not just cover it. So what you now have is
15:20
Speaker 6: this cataracty gray film on top of a beautiful piece
15:28
Speaker 6: of furniture, which is my metaphor for what the United
15:32
Speaker 6: States is amazing piece of If you want to torture
15:37
Speaker 6: the metaphor enough cherry furniture hewn from George Washington's own tree.
15:45
Speaker 6: All right, enough, I'll show myself out. But over the
15:51
Speaker 6: last one hundred and fifty years, we've just been covering
15:56
Speaker 6: it with wax and ourselves on the back saying, well,
16:01
Speaker 6: that was easy. And now we look at it and go, ah,
16:08
Speaker 6: it's kind of ugly. It kind of looks like a
16:11
Speaker 6: piece of junk because it is a piece of junk
16:14
Speaker 6: right now. It's been treated so badly that it needs
16:22
Speaker 6: a good stripper. Well, I mean, you know what I mean.
16:29
Speaker 6: We need to find somebody who can get all of
16:32
Speaker 6: that crap off of the top of the furniture so
16:36
Speaker 6: that we can find that beautiful cherry wood underneath it,
16:40
Speaker 6: refinish it, and then step back and say, gosh, where
16:46
Speaker 6: did that go? Because over the last one hundred and
16:48
Speaker 6: fifty years, since the end of the Civil War, we
16:53
Speaker 6: have been covering the furniture in an effort to hide
17:02
Speaker 6: some of the inner problems with it, and that we've
17:09
Speaker 6: ignored our checks and balances. Our checks and balances are
17:15
Speaker 6: there specifically to make sure that individuals with weak spirits
17:22
Speaker 6: and bad hearts and bad intentions can only do so
17:26
Speaker 6: much damage before they're caught. But unfortunately, once caught, we
17:31
Speaker 6: fall prey to the people who insist they're going to
17:34
Speaker 6: fix it so it'll never ever happen again. That's where
17:38
Speaker 6: the danger comes in. That's just what you hear. What
17:42
Speaker 6: are you doing? I'm spraying some more wax on the furniture.
17:46
Speaker 6: Oh great, And over the past one hundred and fifty years,
17:49
Speaker 6: here we are, we have just developed this ugly piece
17:54
Speaker 6: of furniture that we don't recognize anymore, and people are
17:58
Speaker 6: using that again us. Let me get to you at
18:01
Speaker 6: four three four eighty two four two one seven. Good morning.
18:05
Speaker 6: You're on the air with Joe. Who's this?
18:07
Speaker 12: Good morning, Joe?
18:08
Speaker 6: It's Joel. Hey Joel, how are you doing this morning?

18:14
Speaker 12: talk about.
18:15
Speaker 6: But don't you don't you think don't you think America
18:18
Speaker 6: needs a good stripper?
18:21
Speaker 12: I mean, her name better not be Patina.
18:28
Speaker 6: Next on stage, Misty Drizzle? Uh? Anyway, So what's on
18:32

Speaker 6: You get two or gong or something, you get I'll
18:41
Speaker 6: even give you four.
18:42
Speaker 12: There you go, Okay, anyway, you know, all for our
18:46
Speaker 12: vanity here, but uh, you know, here's my here's my
18:51
Speaker 12: thing that's bubbling around in my head. I mean, there's
18:53
Speaker 12: so much I'd like to talk about.
18:54
Speaker 6: But now all of a.
18:57
Speaker 12: Sudden, they have subpoenas now for Hillary and Slick Willie
19:02
Speaker 12: and they were refusing to come in for their for
19:06
Speaker 12: their congressional hearing and and so, you know, to wipe
19:13
Speaker 12: away the patina on nobody going to jail, right, So
19:20
Speaker 12: are they going to be prosecuted? Are they going to
19:23
Speaker 12: be put put before the the leftist media and they're
19:27
Speaker 12: just going to say they're victims and they're shamed and
19:31
Speaker 12: why not? Or to Trump you know that red hair,
19:33
Speaker 12: that that that orange that orange haired guy that hates
19:37
Speaker 12: everybody and back for vengeance or as part of the
19:41
Speaker 12: media going to go well, as you were saying, when
19:44
Speaker 12: am I going to get justice?
19:46
Speaker 6: Well, you know Bill, first off, that Clinton's been Bill
19:50
Speaker 6: Clinton's been doing this since nineteen ninety four. I'm just
19:53
Speaker 6: a victim.
19:54
Speaker 4: You know, I'm just a a old country boy.
19:57
Speaker 17: You know, I grew up My mama was a run
19:59
Speaker 17: on a brack and I grew up this way, and
20:02
Speaker 17: I'm just trying to.
20:03
Speaker 6: Help people, and so he is the template on which
20:10
Speaker 6: all of these profiteers, these political profit heers work off of. Remember,
20:16
Speaker 6: Bill hid one of the most massive scandals in politics,
20:22
Speaker 6: using his office to make himself and his family money
20:28
Speaker 6: and friends money by pushing public policy into such a
20:34
Speaker 6: way that it would profit property owners that he and
20:39
Speaker 6: his family had invested in. And he hid it under
20:44
Speaker 6: this Oh, they're just trying to get me because they
20:46
Speaker 6: disagree with the Oh, they're all just a Republican acts
20:50
Speaker 6: and ken Starr's just out there and just because it's republican. No,
20:54
Speaker 6: it had nothing to do with Republican or not. It
20:58
Speaker 6: had to do with you know. And believe me, I'll
21:01
Speaker 6: be the first one to be critical of ken Starr
21:04
Speaker 6: when it became clear he couldn't make white Water stick.
21:07
Speaker 6: Rather than finding a way to hang destruction of evidence
21:11
Speaker 6: on Lady Macbeth, he decided to go after the Blue
21:16
Speaker 6: Dress instead and really created this this landscape of, well,
21:23
Speaker 6: if we can't beat him, let's just make everyone despise him.
21:28
Speaker 6: And there were real things to go after Bill and
21:32
Speaker 6: Hillary Clinton for, and we got distracted with the salacious stuff,
21:38
Speaker 6: like like so many viewers of TMZ and and so
21:42
Speaker 6: he gets off on this. Oh, you're just after me
21:45
Speaker 6: because you're prudes, and you don't you all wish you
21:48
Speaker 6: were me? And I can play saxophone on our senior hall.
21:52

28:18
Speaker 17: Wheel out my one impression, jump back, let me get
28:27
Speaker 17: my saxophone out here.
28:29
Speaker 4: You got Joel so uh Joel was.
28:43
Speaker 6: Triggering, you know, flashbacks. Somewhere. I've got the archive. Fred Travelina,
28:48
Speaker 6: the late impressionist was he had a book out, uh
28:52
Speaker 6: and came on my show and gosh, I'm trying to
29:01
Speaker 6: remember now the circumstances. But he did his his impression
29:06
Speaker 6: of Russ Limbaugh and I did my impression of Bubba
29:17
Speaker 6: and it was just, you know, relatively hysterical, you know,
29:22
Speaker 6: back and forth. But my buddy Sean Farrish who does podcasts,
29:27
Speaker 6: and it has been filling in, you know, it does.
29:29
Speaker 6: One of the best.
29:30
Speaker 10: Stories was the night before Christmas and all through your
29:33
Speaker 10: town we deployed the National Guard, and now the crime
29:38
Speaker 10: is way down.
29:39
Speaker 6: There was a great Trump. Maybe we should, you know,
29:43
Speaker 6: square off his Trump versus my Bubba. But anyway, Joel,
29:47
Speaker 6: you were bringing up the fact that Bill yet again
29:50
Speaker 6: is holding Congress in contempt and not complying with their
29:59
Speaker 6: subpoenas to come and talk about his interactions with Jeffrey Epstein.
30:04
Speaker 6: You know, while everyone else wants to say, oh, I
30:06
Speaker 6: see picture of Trump, I shaw try, but Bill won't come,
30:11
Speaker 6: and the Democrats are quiet about it.
30:14
Speaker 12: It's it's kind of like what the Democrats do all
30:16
Speaker 12: the time.
30:17
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, that's what you said.
30:20
Speaker 6: That's what I mean. Take an event, he's he's established
30:23
Speaker 6: the template by which all the Democrats that have come
30:26
Speaker 6: straight you operate.
30:29
Speaker 12: Except he operated under a desk.
30:31
Speaker 6: But you know, but wow, you went there. Huh but uh.
30:38
Speaker 12: But you know, it's just I think it's not a
30:41
Speaker 12: matter of anybody in America wanting to poke a finger
30:46
Speaker 12: at somebody. It's a matter of being the individual, the
30:50
Speaker 12: common person, as we would say, the person with the
30:53
Speaker 12: red blood is almost everybody else has. But we're all
30:56
Speaker 12: treated we're judicially, we're treated differently, and financially we're treated
31:02
Speaker 12: differently because without the finance, you can't get treated better judicially.
31:08
Speaker 6: And that's one of the big that's an essential corruption
31:11
Speaker 6: because we have a system that guarantees defense. And what
31:16
Speaker 6: has happened is we've you know, so built up this
31:20
Speaker 6: judicial system that you need to pay for such a
31:25
Speaker 6: defense that that it becomes the process is the punishment.
31:30
Speaker 6: We've we've allowed this to happen on our watch, and
31:33
Speaker 6: we can push back on it. There are ways to
31:36
Speaker 6: push back on it. But you know, first and foremost,
31:40
Speaker 6: I think, you know, treating the American citizen like they're
31:44
Speaker 6: the enemy is our essential problem, don't you, Joel Oh?
31:49
Speaker 12: I agree, And look at President Trump. He's having to
31:54
Speaker 12: go back not to do it because he doesn't have
31:56
Speaker 12: any money. He's having to go back to take a
31:59
Speaker 12: lot of these cases as they were put against him,
32:01
Speaker 12: they were proven wrong, and go back and get his
32:05
Speaker 12: money back for the lawyer, the money that he had
32:07
Speaker 12: to spend on lawyers.
32:09
Speaker 6: Sure, sure, absolutely, and and maybe some of this, you know,
32:12
Speaker 6: there's in tort reform when we talk about our civil actions.
32:18
Speaker 6: Most other countries in the world have what's called loser
32:21
Speaker 6: pays laws, So if you sue somebody and lose, you
32:27
Speaker 6: have to pay their legal fees. And I wish I
32:32
Speaker 6: wish America had it now that I've been the subject
32:36
Speaker 6: of it, even more so than I used to be.
32:38
Speaker 6: For an abstract but I think, you know, even in
32:41
Speaker 6: criminal prosecutions, if a state targets somebody and it's and
32:46
Speaker 6: they're found innocent of the crimes the state has accused
32:51
Speaker 6: them of the state really should in my mind, in
32:56
Speaker 6: the same way a civil attorney should be responsible for
33:00
Speaker 6: the lawyer's fees. You're going to have to incur instead.
33:04
Speaker 6: What we have our states in the union that will
33:07
Speaker 6: take your private property from you to prevent you from
33:13
Speaker 6: paying for your lawyer with the proceeds of your own property.
33:17
Speaker 6: It's it's crazy, it's upside down. But this is what
33:20
Speaker 6: you know. The the left and I believe left in
33:23
Speaker 6: both parties have allowed this, this you know, governing class
33:30
Speaker 6: to take a pre eminence. Like you said earlier in
33:33
Speaker 6: the phone call, I.
33:35
Speaker 12: Think the Democrats have established a Bill Clinton fund called
33:40
Speaker 12: the Patina Cherry Torte Bakery Fund, so they can make
33:46
Speaker 12: money off of selling cherry torte torts.
33:50
Speaker 17: I don't know, you know, well, no, we don't use
33:53
Speaker 17: the word tart anymore. We call her a misunderstood woman,
33:57
Speaker 17: a puky Joel Tugg You, Joel, appreciate it.
34:01
Speaker 6: You coming down see us here at Little Rockets. W wad.
34:12
Speaker 17: You know?
34:13
Speaker 6: It says something when the blue dress is included in
34:16
Speaker 6: Bill Clinton's presidential portrait and the nuance. Why I'm harsh
34:26
Speaker 6: on ken Starr about this is that to me, there
34:32
Speaker 6: is little that is a higher crime and misdemeanor for
34:35
Speaker 6: an elected official than to make money off of your ministrations.
34:44
Speaker 6: And whether it's Nancy Pelosi or Mitch McConnell or anyone
34:49
Speaker 6: on down the line. And lord knows how much of
34:51
Speaker 6: the first Trump administration was gobbled up under the premise
34:56
Speaker 6: of evoluments. Oh they all they figured out the emolument's clause.
35:03
Speaker 6: But you know, nobody ever said, hey, Nance, what where'd
35:06
Speaker 6: you get all the information? Your stocks? Your portfolio wins
35:12
Speaker 6: way more frequently than most people. You you definitely outperform
35:17
Speaker 6: the market. Nancy, she's she's coming here to my hometown.
35:24
Speaker 6: Is it June May somewhere? She's coming in the spring
35:29
Speaker 6: like the dogwood flowers, and she's coming to I guess
35:36
Speaker 6: set up her post office career the UVA Center for Politics,
35:44
Speaker 6: and just listen to her go on and on. I mean,
35:50
Speaker 6: if there's a person who embodies what I'm talking about
35:53
Speaker 6: with Joel there, which is this governing class. Dad's the
35:59
Speaker 6: boss of Baltimore for years, then she goes off to
36:02
Speaker 6: California becomes the boss of Central California. And I'm not saying,
36:11
Speaker 6: you know, making money is evil, but using your elected
36:18
Speaker 6: office to enact policies that then can profit companies that
36:25
Speaker 6: you know are going to come before a committee. Sometimes
36:31
Speaker 6: it's as simple as oh, they're going to come before
36:33
Speaker 6: a committee, they're going to get approval for something. But
36:36
Speaker 6: in the most corrupt it's where you work to get
36:40
Speaker 6: the approval and then in getting that approval, you profit
36:48
Speaker 6: from it. And this was what Bill and Hillary and
36:50
Speaker 6: the McDougal's and Whitewater was all about, was when he
36:54
Speaker 6: was governor of Arkansas, moving public policy so that this
37:01
Speaker 6: land deal along the river could turn into a profitable
37:06
Speaker 6: real estate venture. And it wasn't even you know one
37:12
Speaker 6: way or the other, you know, al is it going
37:14
Speaker 6: to be profitable or not. They made sure it was
37:16
Speaker 6: going to be profitable by the ministrations of his gubernatorial office.
37:24
Speaker 6: And that's the corruption that eats at all of us,
37:30
Speaker 6: because these people are not in office to protect our rights.
37:35
Speaker 6: They're in there to make a bock and the best
37:39
Speaker 6: way to fix this because you'll say Madison's blind spot, Now,
37:43
Speaker 6: Madison didn't have a blind spot. Madison didn't expect the
37:46
Speaker 6: perversion of the commerce clause to get to the point
37:50
Speaker 6: where folks like Nancy Pelosi and ilhan Omar can become
37:54
Speaker 6: multi multi millionaires just by representing a district in Congress.
38:01

43:23
Speaker 6: I get a mulligan ready to go?
43:27
Speaker 12: Hey?
43:27
Speaker 13: Are you sure you're okay to drive?
43:29
Speaker 19: Yeah? I'm pretty sober.
43:32
Speaker 12: Yeah, I'm probably okay.
43:35
Speaker 21: Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking
43:39
Speaker 21: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
43:42
Speaker 21: or a friend. Buzz driving is drunk driving. A message

44:09
Speaker 3: College hundred to do list. Putting the radio on is
44:14
Speaker 3: the first thing today.
44:18
Speaker 4: If you feel a little tight.
44:21
Speaker 6: A lot of the part time legislatures in the country
44:25
Speaker 6: are beginning there. They're legislative sessions Texas. I know here
44:33
Speaker 6: in the Commonwealth of Virginia, Uh, they're coming in the
44:38
Speaker 6: rock star star of Stephen Colbert's show, Abigail Spanberger. I'm
44:45
Speaker 6: going to give her situation. The situation is in reports
44:49
Speaker 6: and the Commonwealth be sworn in on Saturday as the
44:54
Speaker 6: first female governor of the Commonwealth of Virginia and still
45:00
Speaker 6: to this day fascinated the having lived in Pennsylvania for
45:06
Speaker 6: some time where not only is the legislature not part time,
45:10
Speaker 6: I mean they go three sixty five, they'll go until
45:14
Speaker 6: two in the morning, especially if it involves voting for
45:17
Speaker 6: a pay raise for them. The podcast are now host
45:22
Speaker 6: of The Read Revolution, now three four episodes into its run.
45:27
Speaker 6: Their former Reagan and George Allen aid John Reid, who
45:32
Speaker 6: really outperformed, out kicked the coverage in his run for
45:37
Speaker 6: Lieutenant governor, who should be getting ready to gabble in
45:40
Speaker 6: as lieutenant governor of the Commonwealth, but that was not
45:44
Speaker 6: to be. But he's back on with us this morning.
45:47
Speaker 20: John Howard, I thought after the campaign, I'd be able
45:49
Speaker 20: to stay at home and work from home like everybody else,
45:52
Speaker 20: but it hadn't worked.
45:53
Speaker 6: Out that way. See, now you have to make it
45:55
Speaker 6: on your own, so you don't have those program directors
45:57
Speaker 6: calling you into their office saying what were you think
46:00
Speaker 6: when you did that on your show? But now it's
46:04
Speaker 6: all on your.
46:04
Speaker 20: Shoulders, no guard rails, man, We're just going going for
46:08
Speaker 20: broke here.
46:09
Speaker 6: Literally. So the General Assembly set to gavel in and
46:16
Speaker 6: I'm curious to see what your expertise is giving you
46:21
Speaker 6: a feeling of. I mean, I've looked at some of
46:23
Speaker 6: these profile bills. Obviously the constitutional amendments are dominating people's minds.
46:31
Speaker 6: But that being said, you know there's a lot of
46:34
Speaker 6: bills in here about gun regulation. Cre Deeds pared down
46:38
Speaker 6: his list from twenty seven to eighteen. Oh, I feel
46:41
Speaker 6: so much better now. So what are you sensing as
46:46
Speaker 6: this very unique general Assembly gabbles in.
46:50
Speaker 20: Well, Republicans have got to face the fact that it's
46:54
Speaker 20: the triumvirate for the Democrats. I've got the governor's mansion,
46:58
Speaker 20: the Senate, and the House. And quite frankly, the Democrats
47:01
Speaker 20: who won in Virginia during this last election cycle are radicals.
47:05
Speaker 20: They are not mainstream Democrats. It's not like they ran
47:09
Speaker 20: to the middle in order to beat a Republican candidate.
47:13
Speaker 20: They ran to the left and quite frankly, and you know,
47:17
Speaker 20: I never want people to think that I'm looking for
47:19
Speaker 20: an excuse for my own loss, which still bothers me
47:22
Speaker 20: and hurts me, but I always do. I think the
47:26
Speaker 20: leftists were able to capitalize on the hostility towards President Trump,
47:31
Speaker 20: whether that's warranted or not. We could debate all night,
47:33
Speaker 20: but there's a heck of a lot of hostility, especially
47:36
Speaker 20: in some of these swing districts like the one I
47:39
Speaker 20: live in in Henriiko, where we're going to have a
47:42
Speaker 20: new delegate and she's not a mainstream candidate like what
47:45
Speaker 20: you would have seen in Henryko County twenty or thirty
47:48
Speaker 20: years ago. It's it's radicalism. So I think everybody should
47:53
Speaker 20: buckle up because the Democrats, they do not sit back
47:57
Speaker 20: and think, wow, should we really push forward these radical ideas.
48:02
Speaker 6: People won't like us.
48:03
Speaker 20: I think they're going to say they got twenty four
48:05
Speaker 20: months to do everything they want to do. And the
48:09
Speaker 20: only thing that I'm hoping for is that the Speaker
48:14
Speaker 20: of the House don Scott, you know, the former drug dealer,
48:17
Speaker 20: who they decided would lead the House of Delegates, which
48:21
Speaker 20: is shocking to me.
48:22
Speaker 6: And I want a second act, don't we?
48:24
Speaker 4: Don't we?
48:25
Speaker 20: I'm not sure that I would put you in charge
48:27
Speaker 20: of the whole state or whatever that he will want
48:30
Speaker 20: to remain Speaker and will temper some of the craziness.
48:34
Speaker 20: And then you've got Abigail Spamberger, who I gotta tell
48:38
Speaker 20: you has been very successful with this act that she's
48:42
Speaker 20: a moderate when her voting record in the Congress does
48:45
Speaker 20: not indicate that she's a moderate. But she wants to
48:47
Speaker 20: run for vice president or president. And I think everyone
48:52
Speaker 20: around her is doing what they always do in Virginia,
48:55
Speaker 20: telling the new governor, you could be president. And I
48:58
Speaker 20: think that may play an our favor, that she will
49:01
Speaker 20: stop some of the radical things from taking effect just
49:06
Speaker 20: so she can maintain her viability there. Of course, you
49:09
Speaker 20: can also argue that she'll you know, she's up against AOC,
49:13
Speaker 20: So how do you moderate yourself to AOC can have
49:15
Speaker 20: the base support you in the Democrat Party.
49:18
Speaker 6: Well, this is interesting because I brought this up. I
49:21
Speaker 6: wrote a column for the Daily Signal in which you know,
49:24
Speaker 6: the tea leaves to me are going to be what
49:27
Speaker 6: she vetos, if the veto pen goes away, and anything
49:30
Speaker 6: Don Scott wants he gets, No, she's not running. She'll
49:34
Speaker 6: she figures governor's is sufficient if she starts vetoing the
49:39
Speaker 6: crazy stuff, and if she doesn't stand in the way
49:44
Speaker 6: of the crazy stuff so that the crazier stuff gets
49:47
Speaker 6: on her desk so she can veto it to say no, no, no,
49:50
Speaker 6: that's too far. I think we know then that she's
49:54
Speaker 6: looking into twenty twenty eight. And the thing I find
49:57
Speaker 6: interesting is this was what Louise Lucas accused Glenn Youngkin
50:04
Speaker 6: of from the minute he took his hand off of
50:06
Speaker 6: the Bible that he was running for president, and that
50:13
Speaker 6: here Abigail Spanberger may very well be doing exactly what
50:16
Speaker 6: Louise Lucas accused Glenn Youngkin of. And everyone's just going
50:21
Speaker 6: to be fine with it because it'll be when you
50:24
Speaker 6: come now.
50:25
Speaker 20: And I want to tell you Republicans have to step
50:28
Speaker 20: up their game the old days in Virginia quite frankly,
50:32
Speaker 20: where we were deferential of each other, which I longed for.
50:36
Speaker 20: I mean, it was other things I talked about in
50:38
Speaker 20: my campaign was restoring some sort of digness, dignity, and
50:41
Speaker 20: normalcy without cutting each other's throats. It's very clear the
50:45
Speaker 20: Democrat Party does not want that. They did not discipline
50:48
Speaker 20: Ja Jones. They allowed Gozala Hoschman to campaign from the
50:53
Speaker 20: basement so that she could sweep in with Abigail. I
50:57
Speaker 20: think they're going to be hyper aggressive, and Republicans better
51:00
Speaker 20: be ready to be hyper aggressive back now. I do
51:03
Speaker 20: not mean here's the difference between them and US. I
51:06
Speaker 20: do not mean that Republicans go into the streets and
51:09
Speaker 20: commit crimes to show how outrage they are.
51:12
Speaker 6: Well and John, And this is something I've mentioned before,
51:15
Speaker 6: is that you know, when when the Democrats are not
51:19
Speaker 6: in the majority, they still seem like they run the joint.
51:24
Speaker 6: They use every little piece of parliamentary procedure, whether it'd
51:28
Speaker 6: be in Colorado where the legislature goes into session today,
51:33
Speaker 6: in Virginia here, Florida just started yesterday, Kansas. You know
51:38
Speaker 6: these places with part time legislatures, Maryland going in today,
51:43
Speaker 6: in Michigan, and you know all these places gaveling in
51:48
Speaker 6: New Jersey. You know that there's a short window to
51:57
Speaker 6: make your bones. West Virginia, or my neighbors like to
52:01
Speaker 6: call it here Best Virginia. Alabama just went into session.
52:07
Speaker 6: You know, we all feel a little constricted at least
52:10
Speaker 6: alastas a few days before your lawmakers start coming after
52:15
Speaker 6: you for stuff. But when the Democratic Party is in
52:24
Speaker 6: the minority, they will find every piece of parliamentary procedure
52:31
Speaker 6: to hang up any agenda and to stop anything. And
52:34
Speaker 6: Republicans shruggling elections of consequences. It goes we will just
52:39
Speaker 6: have to take it uh, and it's frustrating for I
52:42
Speaker 6: know a lot of my listeners, John and I know
52:44
Speaker 6: if you've you've talked about it in the past. John
52:46
Speaker 6: Reid now podcast with us this morning.
