- 0:06Speaker 1: I'm more mega now make America great again than I've
- 0:11Speaker 1: ever been.
- 0:12Speaker 2: Making mornings great again. First thing today on the Talk
- 0:16Speaker 2: Media Network by Joe Thomas.
- 0:38Speaker 3: The blessings of a Tedstee upon you this morning as
- 0:42Speaker 3: we gather and bask in the amplitude and frequency modulation
- 0:46Speaker 3: goodness of your favorite radio station, you being the most
- 0:51Speaker 3: important local aspect of it. I do, after we finish
- 0:55Speaker 3: telling you what went on, want to hear from you
- 0:58Speaker 3: as to how it is impacting you, where you are.
- 1:01Speaker 3: That's how we roll here. We don't screen our phone calls,
- 1:05Speaker 3: for those who are wondering. We don't screen them because
- 1:09Speaker 3: I don't want to know what you're talking about beforehand.
- 1:11Speaker 3: I want that to be organic. When you tell me
- 1:16Speaker 3: what you're calling about, I want to be just as
- 1:19Speaker 3: surprised as everyone else. Because that's the only way you
- 1:25Speaker 3: can have an honest conversation. If I'm picking and choosing
- 1:28Speaker 3: which callers to take, then.
- 1:32Speaker 3: I've now tainted the pool. Do we have a minute here?
- 1:37Speaker 3: Let's see what line one has for us before we
- 1:40Speaker 3: do our first things. Good morning. You're on the air
- 1:42Speaker 3: with Joe. Who's this? Hey, good morning.
- 1:45Speaker 5: It's Andy. We've just triggered a few things. I had
- 1:48Speaker 5: to cancel my trip west, and so I'm there.
- 1:52Speaker 3: Oh, you can't get to the Mises thing. I'm sorry
- 1:55Speaker 3: about that.
- 1:56Speaker 5: Yeah, I just got injured my back doing some moving
- 2:00Speaker 5: smart around.
- 2:01Speaker 3: You want me to send you, you know, we've got
- 2:03Speaker 3: this CBD oil that really worked for my wife's injured back.
- 2:08Speaker 3: It's topical, and I use it topically, and it made
- 2:11Speaker 3: her back feel better right away.
- 2:13Speaker 5: I should become a user of this.
- 2:20Speaker 3: I'll send you a bottle. I mean, Celie sent me
- 2:22Speaker 3: a few from Mesa Verde Hemp. Freebie for you there, Celie.
- 2:28Speaker 3: But it really worked. Like I said, my wife fell
- 2:32Speaker 3: on her back. Well, actually, my wife's mother fell on
- 2:35Speaker 3: my wife, who fell on the tile rib around the
- 2:43Speaker 3: shower stall in my mother's bathroom, mother-in-law's. And just she
- 2:49Speaker 3: had this most ugliest black and purple bruise on her
- 2:53Speaker 3: lower back. And just a couple of days of Sealy's
- 2:57Speaker 3: CBD oil, and she was feeling fine. And this is
- 3:02Speaker 3: the best part, is you don't have to keep using it.
- 3:05Speaker 3: It's not like an opioid where you have to keep
- 3:07Speaker 3: using it. You just put it on until the pain
- 3:10Speaker 3: has healed up, and you can go on your way. Obviously,
- 3:15Speaker 3: everything is different. I'm working on some arthritic situation going
- 3:20Speaker 3: on in my knee right now.
- 3:22Speaker 5: That goes back to your catcher.
- 3:25Speaker 6: Days, right?
- 3:26Speaker 3: Well, I'm sure it starts there, but it really flared
- 3:29Speaker 3: up when we were at CPAC. I'll tell you what,
- 3:32Speaker 3: I want to find out what else is on your mind, Andy,
- 3:35Speaker 3: in a moment. But let me tell everyone what's going
- 3:38Speaker 3: on in the news first, and then we can throw
- 3:42Speaker 3: down from there. First things this morning, Jared Witkoff spent yesterday...
- 3:48Speaker 3: with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and now is in St. Petersburg,
- 3:53Speaker 3: the other one, with Vladimir Putin doing some shuttle diplomacy
- 3:59Speaker 3: on a way to end the war between Russia and Ukraine. Meanwhile,
- 4:06Speaker 3: Elon Musk has been outed to the Wall Street Journal.
- 4:11Speaker 3: Whistleblowers not named Vindman in the U.S. government have called
- 4:15Speaker 3: Wall Street Journal and said it was Elon Musk who
- 4:19Speaker 3: ordered the slowdown of Starlink that crippled Ukrainian capabilities on
- 4:26Speaker 3: the battlefield in the middle of October. According to the
- 4:34Speaker 3: Wall Street Journal report, two people, U.S. officials familiar with
- 4:39Speaker 3: the matter, confirmed it. Meanwhile, one of them says that
- 4:43Speaker 3: Musk called President Trump right after the decision was made
- 4:48Speaker 3: but they can't be clear as to whether the U.S.
- 4:51Speaker 3: knew about it in advance. Alberta has voted yesterday to
- 4:58Speaker 3: not move forward with the process of seceding from Canada.
- 5:04Speaker 3: Seventy-five percent of the voters that turned out and cast
- 5:09Speaker 3: more than 1.8 million votes supported the idea of not
- 5:14Speaker 3: beginning the process to leave Canada. President Trump's administration says
- 5:20Speaker 3: they've revoked more than 300,000 U.S. visas during his second
- 5:25Speaker 3: term State Department, releasing those numbers. And they said that
- 5:31Speaker 3: the numbers have ramped up over the past month. And
- 5:39Speaker 3: 153 people are dead in the South Sudan after a
- 5:40Speaker 3: military strike. on a marketplace, adding to a death toll
- 5:53Speaker 3: that already is reaching 150,000 in the three-year-long battle between
- 6:01Speaker 3: two generals of the Sudanese army over the oil-rich South Sudan.
- 6:14Speaker 7: Hi, this is Bud Foster, co-host of Foster and Friends
- 6:17Speaker 7: and former Virginia Tech football coach. When I brought the
- 6:20Speaker 7: famed lunch pail to our team, it symbolized teamwork. The

- 8:03Speaker 12: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 8:07Speaker 12: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 8:13Speaker 12: I'm Dr.
- 8:13Speaker 5: Mitch.
- 8:14Speaker 12: Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems
- 8:20Speaker 12: to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program. It
- 8:24Speaker 12: makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation is
- 8:28Speaker 12: a key component to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic
- 8:32Speaker 12: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties,
- 8:39Speaker 12: and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer, or at
- 8:43Speaker 12: least slow the spread of cancer, and in many instances
- 8:47Speaker 12: make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy cells even
- 8:52Speaker 12: from radiation. TotalWellness.com, where we help you to look good,
- 8:57Speaker 12: feel good, and enjoy total wellness.
- 9:02Speaker 13: I'm Andrew Saul, Commissioner of Social Security. I'm here to
- 9:05Speaker 13: warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
- 9:10Speaker 13: Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you
- 9:13Speaker 13: will be arrested if you don't make payments or provide
- 9:16Speaker 13: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
- 9:21Speaker 13: are not from us. Real Social Security employees will never
- 9:25Speaker 13: threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
- 9:29Speaker 13: call like this, hang up. Never give the caller your
- 9:33Speaker 13: personal information, like your Social Security number or bank account,
- 9:37Speaker 13: or send money in any form, cash, gift cards, wire transfers,
- 9:42Speaker 13: or prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our law
- 9:46Speaker 13: enforcement arm, the Office of the Inspector General, at oig.ssa.gov.
- 9:53Speaker 13: Share this information with your friends and family.
- 9:58Speaker 5: Hi, everybody.
- 9:59Speaker 14: I'm Jack Hanna. Since I was a boy growing up
- 10:01Speaker 14: on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
- 10:04Speaker 14: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
- 10:06Speaker 14: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
- 10:08Speaker 14: birds who gather supplies to build nests or Swiss foxes
- 10:12Speaker 14: who work hard to provide for their young. Or penguins,
- 10:15Speaker 14: who travel up to 500 miles to secure food for
- 10:17Speaker 14: their families. Or bush babies, whose impressive jump allows them
- 10:21Speaker 14: to navigate the trees and the wild in search of fruit.
- 10:23Speaker 14: This remarkable work ethic is shared by our best friends,
- 10:26Speaker 14: the canines. We know dogs are our wonderful pets at home,
- 10:30Speaker 14: but because of their acute senses, they also perform lifesaving
- 10:33Speaker 14: work every day. Dogs keep us safe at airports. They
- 10:36Speaker 14: comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTS. They
- 10:39Speaker 14: work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change in
- 10:42Speaker 14: their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of highly
- 10:44Speaker 14: trained roles that contribute to society and help those in need.
- 10:47Speaker 14: So please join me and American Humane in supporting our
- 10:50Speaker 14: heroic working dogs and all the amazing animals on this
- 10:53Speaker 14: planet we inhabit together. Go to AmericanHumane.org to learn more.
- 10:59Speaker 15: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
- 11:01Speaker 1: Oh, yeah?
- 11:01Speaker 3: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
- 11:04Speaker 16: And now a speech.
- 11:06Speaker 17: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
- 11:10Speaker 5: Heart and brain.
- 11:12Speaker 3: Who's with me?
- 11:13Speaker 15: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed. And my
- 11:15Speaker 15: brain is saying, when it's time to go home, somebody
- 11:18Speaker 15: call me a ride. Love that guy.
- 11:20Speaker 16: Me too.
- 11:21Speaker 17: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
- 11:23Speaker 17: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
- 11:28Speaker 8: Did you know that more than half our household energy
- 11:31Speaker 8: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
- 11:35Speaker 8: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
- 11:39Speaker 8: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
- 11:42Speaker 8: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
- 11:46Speaker 8: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
- 11:51Speaker 8: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
- 11:54Speaker 8: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
- 11:58Speaker 8: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
- 12:00Speaker 8: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
- 12:04Speaker 8: the Energy Guide label. And there are day-to-day things you
- 12:07Speaker 8: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
- 12:11Speaker 8: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.
- 12:14Speaker 8: And keep air filters clean. For more tips on saving
- 12:18Speaker 8: money by reducing your energy waste, check out ftc.gov slash green.
- 12:24Speaker 8: A tip from the Federal Trade Commission. the nation's consumer
- 12:27Speaker 8: protection agency.
- 12:29Speaker 18: As a family member or friend, you may be the
- 12:32Speaker 18: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
- 12:35Speaker 18: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
- 12:40Speaker 18: anger could be a sign of a larger health concern.
- 12:44Speaker 4: But help is available. Listen to hundreds of inspiring stories
- 12:49Speaker 4: at maketheconnection.net and learn how you can support the veterans
- 12:53Speaker 4: in your life. Treatment works. Recovery is possible.

- 13:21Speaker 2: First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 13:26Speaker 4: I can't scratch fever.
- 13:28Speaker 3: I can't scratch fever. This email comes in, there you
- 13:33Speaker 3: go again.
- 13:34Speaker 19: I got it, I was just in your zone. I
- 13:37Speaker 19: got it from some kitty next door. Now when I
- 13:42Speaker 19: see a doctor and he gave me the cure, I
- 13:45Speaker 19: think I got us some more.
- 13:50Speaker 3: We all know, Joe, that SARS-CoV-2 developed organically in a
- 13:55Speaker 3: cave somewhere in the Wuhan region, and its proximity to
- 13:59Speaker 3: that lab is just coincidental. Where are you and all
- 14:03Speaker 3: these conspiracy theories coming from? Oh, good stuff, good stuff.
- 14:08Speaker 3: I like that. Andy was on the line when we
- 14:10Speaker 3: had to run to break. Andy, thank you for hanging
- 14:13Speaker 3: on the line. What's on your mind this morning?
- 14:16Speaker 5: And just a bunch of different things. But people need
- 14:19Speaker 5: to remember that October is domestic abuse month. As a
- 14:26Speaker 5: male survivor, which is probably much less understood. But, you know,
- 14:33Speaker 5: I am one and that's good. One of the things
- 14:36Speaker 5: that I did get out when I was in a
- 14:40Speaker 5: horrible car crash, fortunately, it was in a big Mercedes that,
- 14:46Speaker 5: you know, my ex-wife used to buy things that we
- 14:50Speaker 5: could barely afford. And fortunately, that was one of those things.
- 14:55Speaker 5: I think there was $ 16, 000 or $ 17, 000 worth of damage
- 14:56Speaker 5: to the vehicle near downtown San Richmond. And yeah, I
- 15:08Speaker 5: ended up needing to focus on kind of making my
- 15:14Speaker 5: business survive and being with a crazy woman at the
- 15:19Speaker 5: same time.
- 15:23Speaker 3: Yours is an important story because like breast cancer, which
- 15:27Speaker 3: this month also is, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, this is
- 15:30Speaker 3: something that males are suffer with just as much and
- 15:36Speaker 3: can have the same issues that a female has. And
- 15:40Speaker 3: we're not trying to be, you know, get in on
- 15:42Speaker 3: the transgender thing. I'm just saying that men get breast
- 15:45Speaker 3: cancer and men are victims of domestic violence. And it's unfortunately,
- 15:50Speaker 3: I think sometimes it doesn't get reported because of stigmatization
- 15:54Speaker 3: and that kind of thing. But, you know, gaslighting and
- 15:58Speaker 3: that kind of stuff is real.
- 15:59Speaker 19: Exactly.
- 16:00Speaker 5: An amazing cabinetmaker who did some of the work on
- 16:04Speaker 5: the windows there at Monticello. And he ended up, you know,
- 16:09Speaker 5: kind of leaving that smallish group and started making his
- 16:13Speaker 5: own work. And he's another one of those great examples of,
- 16:18Speaker 5: you know, surviving, you know, what isn't nearly as well understood.
- 16:24Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 16:27Speaker 5: I ended up with at least one of his pieces,
- 16:30Speaker 5: but he had actually... I was teaching myself how to
- 16:33Speaker 5: make ball and cloth feet, and I had taken the
- 16:38Speaker 5: blanks down to his cabinet shop, and he actually cut
- 16:44Speaker 5: these things and showed me how to... He would tape
- 16:46Speaker 5: them back together, and so it was actually... I had
- 16:50Speaker 5: told him that he had done that like 35 years before,
- 16:53Speaker 5: and he told me.
- 16:56Speaker 5: That his wife always signs his work. And so he
- 17:02Speaker 5: came over and he actually signed the least done leg.
- 17:10Speaker 5: I had these things at kind of four stages of completion.
- 17:14Speaker 5: And that's part of the Purple Heart story.
- 17:19Speaker 3: Your journey with the World Economic Forum and the Mises Institute,
- 17:24Speaker 3: certainly trying to be the antithesis of.
- 17:26Speaker 5: It, And they're doing amazing work. We need to return
- 17:33Speaker 5: to constitutional money, which ties into, you know, JCS Gold
- 17:38Speaker 5: is perhaps the best vendor for that.
- 17:41Speaker 3: Kind of thing. Family business, you know, without question. But
- 17:44Speaker 3: I'm looking at, you know, all the tendrils of all
- 17:46Speaker 3: what's going on. And in Sudan, it's this genocide, but
- 17:51Speaker 3: it's not. It's really just about getting at the oil
- 17:56Speaker 3: in the South and just killing everybody, if they could,
- 18:01Speaker 3: that stands in their way. You see what's going on
- 18:03Speaker 3: in Ukraine. And, you know, we need to internationally do
- 18:09Speaker 3: a better job of standing up for the people who
- 18:12Speaker 3: need liberation. Don't you think, Andy?
- 18:15Speaker 5: Yeah, for sure. What's interesting, I actually have a very,
- 18:19Speaker 5: very close relationship with a gentleman who who is a
- 18:26Speaker 5: restoration and he's also trained at doing appraisals, but he
- 18:32Speaker 5: hasn't been certified to do either at this hymn. And
- 18:37Speaker 5: he has, you know, a local fine art purveyor and
- 18:42Speaker 5: who is, you know, has taken Igor, you know, kind
- 18:47Speaker 5: of under his wing and, De Igor actually did a,
- 18:53Speaker 5: it was a 400-year-old portrait of Charles II.
- 18:59Speaker 2: Wow.
- 19:01Speaker 5: And I actually have that in my house right now.
- 19:05Speaker 5: I asked him to bring it back. He's making a,
- 19:07Speaker 5: you know, a copy. But he was the one that
- 19:11Speaker 5: had actually done the restorations.
- 19:15Speaker 3: Wow, that's very cool. It's an art form.
- 19:20Speaker 5: It had been deaccessioned from Colonial Williamsburg. And that's, you know,
- 19:25Speaker 5: another one of these.
- 19:26Speaker 3: But the point I was making, you know, but Andy,
- 19:30Speaker 3: the point I was making is that we need to be,
- 19:32Speaker 3: you know, as a country, I think, you know, given
- 19:35Speaker 3: that we're the lone, maybe China's trying to be superpower-ish,
- 19:41Speaker 3: but we need to be known as being on the
- 19:43Speaker 3: side of liberation. And we were, and now we're not anymore.
- 19:48Speaker 3: And I look at the fall of the Soviet Union,
- 19:53Speaker 3: and we were talking about this earlier, that there was
- 19:57Speaker 3: a grand opportunity to help this Russian country not fall
- 20:07Speaker 3: into the chaos it did. And rather, we just wanted
- 20:11Speaker 3: to kind of keep up the appearances of the Cold War.
- 20:16Speaker 3: And I see that Trump is trying to get us
- 20:21Speaker 3: out of all of that. And people are upset that
- 20:26Speaker 3: he's not backing Ukraine now, even though Bill Clinton was
- 20:30Speaker 3: the first one to say, you know, let's help the Soviet,
- 20:34Speaker 3: let's help the Russians out. Now they don't like it anymore.
- 20:39Speaker 3: And I just feel like this, it's like cliquish, like
- 20:42Speaker 3: high school.
- 20:46Speaker 5: But real. I mean, these people are power drunks. And
- 20:51Speaker 5: they're just, you know, they're rooted in evil.
- 20:55Speaker 3: Well, self-interest at the very least. Well, good stuff, Andy.
- 21:00Speaker 3: I appreciate it, my friend.
- 21:02Speaker 5: Well, thanks for doing what you do.
- 21:04Speaker 6: Always.
- 21:06Speaker 5: I'm trying to just continue to help in ways I can.
- 21:10Speaker 3: Amen to that. Amen. Well, bless you, sir. Did you
- 21:15Speaker 3: see the O'Keefe video out of Michigan? He went in,
- 21:19Speaker 3: and I got to go. We're coming up on the news.
- 21:22Speaker 3: When we come back from the news, I'll get the
- 21:24Speaker 3: O'Keefe video if it's not profane, too profane enough, because
- 21:29Speaker 3: he likes to get people in their own words, and
- 21:31Speaker 3: sometimes those words aren't very polite. But I'll go get that.
- 21:36Speaker 5: He ran that operation with the Ilhan Omar stuff. And
- 21:41Speaker 5: it's the only time he broke silence during, you know,
- 21:44Speaker 5: I funded the undercover at 20 for 2020.
- 21:48Speaker 3: Well, you're saving us. Yeah.
- 21:49Speaker 5: And let me tell about it.
- 21:51Speaker 3: There are billions of dollars for exposing.
- 21:53Speaker 5: Really want me to not be here.
- 21:56Speaker 2: Yeah, no, no.

- 21:59Speaker 3: first thing today, this morning.
- 22:01Speaker 11: Let's see, if something costs less, but people are happier
- 22:04Speaker 11: with it, that sounds like something to look into. And
- 22:07Speaker 11: that is MediShare. Maybe you've heard switching to MediShare to
- 22:10Speaker 11: pay for health care can save many families up to
- 22:14Speaker 11: $ 500 a month.
- 22:14Speaker 3: And that is huge.
- 22:15Speaker 11: But it's also true that people are way more satisfied
- 22:18Speaker 11: after making the switch, too. The member satisfaction rate for
- 22:21Speaker 11: MediShare is double that of the typical health insurance plan.
- 22:25Speaker 2: Double.
- 22:25Speaker 11: MediShare works too. It's been around for 30 years. Members
- 22:28Speaker 11: have shared more than $ 5 billion of each other's bills.
- 22:32Speaker 11: People love having telehealth and a huge nationwide PPO network.
- 22:35Speaker 11: So yeah, really, you can save a ton and like
- 22:37Speaker 11: it better. Imagine being happy with how you're taking care
- 22:40Speaker 11: of your healthcare. So if you're self-employed or part of

- 24:03Speaker 12: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 24:07Speaker 12: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 24:12Speaker 12: I'm Dr.
- 24:13Speaker 3: Mitch.
- 24:14Speaker 12: Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems
- 24:19Speaker 12: to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program. It
- 24:24Speaker 12: makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation is
- 24:28Speaker 12: a key component to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic
- 24:32Speaker 12: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties,
- 24:39Speaker 12: and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer, or at
- 24:43Speaker 12: least slow the spread of cancer, and in many instances
- 24:46Speaker 12: make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy cells even
- 24:51Speaker 12: from radiation. TotalWellness.com where we help you to look good,

- 25:53Speaker 15: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
- 25:56Speaker 1: Oh, yeah?
- 25:57Speaker 3: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
- 25:59Speaker 1: And now a speech.
- 26:02Speaker 13: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
- 26:06Speaker 3: Heart and brain. Who's with me?
- 26:08Speaker 15: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed. And my
- 26:11Speaker 15: brain is saying, when it's time to go home, somebody
- 26:14Speaker 15: call me a ride. Love that guy.
- 26:16Speaker 2: Me too.
- 26:16Speaker 17: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
- 26:19Speaker 17: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
- 26:23Speaker 8: Did you know that more than half our household energy
- 26:26Speaker 8: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
- 26:30Speaker 8: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills too.
- 26:34Speaker 8: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
- 26:36Speaker 8: energy assessment. Your utility company can help. Or you can
- 26:40Speaker 8: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
- 26:46Speaker 8: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
- 26:49Speaker 8: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
- 26:53Speaker 8: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
- 26:55Speaker 8: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
- 26:58Speaker 8: the Energy Guide label. And there are day-to-day things you
- 27:02Speaker 8: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
- 27:05Speaker 8: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.

- 27:39Speaker 2: Lucky?
- 27:40Speaker 21: Caring for my brother is far from easy. But he's

- 28:11Speaker 2: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 28:16Speaker 3: Thank you for letting us be of service to you
- 28:19Speaker 3: on this Ted Sea. And if you don't know what
- 28:23Speaker 3: God has gifted you to do yet, that's okay. Every
- 28:26Speaker 3: day is New Year's Day and we can find it.
- 28:30Speaker 3: So James O'Keefe, just posted more guerrilla video. He's in Michigan.
- 28:40Speaker 3: And they are looking for people as the old candid
- 28:46Speaker 3: camera show used to do. Catch people in the act
- 28:53Speaker 3: of being themselves. And O'Keefe Media Group has successfully, and
- 29:09Speaker 3: I don't know if not a lot of people get this,
- 29:13Speaker 3: pardon me, has successfully won back the rights to Project Veritas.
- 29:21Speaker 3: But they haven't really rolled it out yet. So he
- 29:32Speaker 3: broke into or confronted Abdul El-Sayed. And it's interesting because
- 29:38Speaker 3: he's leaning in. the idea that everyone knows what he
- 29:44Speaker 3: looks like now. And just walks into the Abdul El-Sayed headquarters.
- 29:56Speaker 8: You said that.
- 29:58Speaker 5: El Said was taking money from overseas, which is against
- 30:03Speaker 5: the law.
- 30:04Speaker 8: He said he was taking money from overseas.
- 30:08Speaker 3: And he goes to his campaign worker that actually is
- 30:11Speaker 3: seen on camera, did a post where he's talking about
- 30:17Speaker 3: taking money overseas and asked them, did you really say that?
- 30:25Speaker 3: And Bless these folks. Republicans get bashed a lot when insophisticates,
- 30:33Speaker 3: I think is the word they use, the insophisticates. Trump
- 30:37Speaker 3: was an insophisticate when it came to the way things
- 30:42Speaker 3: were done in 2015. But Democrats, when they get a
- 30:49Speaker 3: hold of somebody and they say something they shouldn't say,
- 30:54Speaker 3: They usually just toss them out with yesterday's trash. So
- 31:03Speaker 3: these campaign staffers in Michigan are insisting that James O'Keefe leave,
- 31:14Speaker 3: and James O'Keefe says, but this guy is on the
- 31:17Speaker 3: news saying that he has taken... foreign contributions and everyone's
- 31:23Speaker 3: trying to kick them out, trying to push them out. Meanwhile,
- 31:27Speaker 3: the guy is actually physically being restrained in the corner.
- 31:33Speaker 3: But he went on a podcast, I guess, and a
- 31:38Speaker 3: little bit of notoriety, those lights like moths, said that
- 31:50Speaker 3: He had taken money from overseas, which is a violation
- 32:01Speaker 3: of federal law. And James O'Keefe is just asking the
- 32:10Speaker 3: question over and over again, and the staffers are getting
- 32:17Speaker 3: threatening to him, having to be restrained. walking away doing
- 32:25Speaker 3: the typical 60-minute stuff they used to do to morally
- 32:28Speaker 3: safer when journalists used to do this kind of thing.
- 32:39Speaker 3: But it's funny to see the kid that actually has
- 32:42Speaker 3: been caught saying it having to be restrained because he knows.
- 32:46Speaker 3: He knows that he has put his candidate in a
- 32:49Speaker 3: bad spot. And this is the interesting part about you know,
- 32:54Speaker 3: the two weeks to go. We will, for the most part,
- 32:58Speaker 3: outside of some states like California, know the results of
- 33:04Speaker 3: the midterms in two weeks' time. And the left is
- 33:12Speaker 3: not behaving like somebody who's got this in the bag.
- 33:15Speaker 3: Do we have the Chuck Schumer pandering to the Jewish community?
- 33:19Speaker 3: Chuck Schumer out pandering to the Jewish community because, you know,
- 33:24Speaker 3: he doesn't have any gravitas with the Jewish community because
- 33:28Speaker 3: he's Jewish. And I make you this pledge.
- 33:31Speaker 23: When I become God-willing majority leader, we will get even
- 33:35Speaker 23: more money for the JCRC and more money for our
- 33:41Speaker 23: nonprofit security grant so desperately needed. by the Jewish community
- 33:46Speaker 23: and other communities facing the scourge of bigotry in America.
- 33:51Speaker 3: Other groups? You mean like Hamas? That's weird. And there's
- 33:58Speaker 3: the Jewish community applauding the money. For the JCRC.
- 34:05Speaker 23: And more money for our non-profit security grant so desperately
- 34:09Speaker 23: needed by the Jewish community and other communities facing the
- 34:13Speaker 23: scourge of bigotry.
- 34:17Speaker 3: Funny, the applause sort of dried up there on Chuck.
- 34:22Speaker 3: I don't think that, and I'm no prognosticator, I don't
- 34:26Speaker 3: have Larry Sabato's crystal balls, but I don't think you're
- 34:32Speaker 3: going to be seeing a massive swing in these midterms.
- 34:42Speaker 3: And it's partially because it has become a campaign of
- 34:46Speaker 3: Barack Obama versus Donald Trump. And what you have to
- 34:54Speaker 3: realize is that a lot of what people have been
- 34:56Speaker 3: telling you have been set up in order to get
- 35:00Speaker 3: you to stay home. They're not going to try to
- 35:02Speaker 3: get you to change your mind and say, you know what,
- 35:06Speaker 3: Abdul El-Sayed is a nice fellow. Let's give him a
- 35:09Speaker 3: chance to What they need to do is to make
- 35:17Speaker 3: the conservatives stay home. If they can get you to
- 35:27Speaker 3: stay home, they don't need to worry about convincing you.
- 35:29Speaker 3: They're going to turn out their 20% of the population
- 35:34Speaker 3: that is on the dole that they need to have
- 35:38Speaker 3: turn out. So they'll have them turn out. And they
- 35:43Speaker 3: just need you to stay home. This has been going
- 35:49Speaker 3: on since January 20th of 2017. Anyone who supported Donald
- 35:55Speaker 3: Trump or voted for Donald Trump or voted for anyone
- 35:59Speaker 3: on the same party as Donald Trump gets assaulted, gets forced.
- 36:06Speaker 3: I want you to defend this stuff. And it's stuff
- 36:09Speaker 3: that you just don't need. People just, hey, I voted
- 36:14Speaker 3: for the guy. I have my reasons. And it's proof
- 36:22Speaker 3: as a sidebar that these offices have become disproportionately powerful.
- 36:31Speaker 3: These offices carry a weight that they should not have
- 36:35Speaker 3: because if they had their constitutional power, you wouldn't watch
- 36:41Speaker 3: this kind of blood sport going on to get elected
- 36:44Speaker 3: to them. There are important things afoot in a presidential administration,
- 36:53Speaker 3: but not in or to the point of arresting people
- 36:59Speaker 3: to stop their voice. Either side. It's insidious that in
- 37:08Speaker 3: the United States we can have people legally challenged for
- 37:12Speaker 3: their voice. And generally it has become a partisan issue where,
- 37:21Speaker 3: you know, I've always found that if I saw somebody
- 37:25Speaker 3: unjustly being arrested, I wouldn't say, hey, are you a
- 37:29Speaker 3: member of CARE first? So we need to be firm
- 37:45Speaker 3: on our own beliefs and understand that the simplicity of
- 37:51Speaker 3: the U.S. Constitution is that these offices are not supposed
- 38:00Speaker 3: to hold this sway.
- 38:02Speaker 15: The American Heart Association celebrates 100 years of life-saving service
- 38:06Speaker 15: as the world's leading non-profit organization focused on heart and
- 38:10Speaker 15: brain health. Heart disease still kills more people in the
- 38:13Speaker 15: United States each year than all types of cancer combined,
- 38:16Speaker 15: but more than half of Americans are unaware of this fact,
- 38:19Speaker 15: according to a recent Harris Poll survey conducted for the
- 38:22Speaker 15: American Heart Association. However, the majority of heart disease is preventable.
- 38:27Speaker 15: New research has improved the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of
- 38:31Speaker 15: heart disease and its risk factors. Efforts led by the
- 38:34Speaker 15: American Heart Association have reduced deaths from heart disease by
- 38:37Speaker 15: half over the past century and helped people with heart

- 38:43Speaker 15: condition and risk factors. To learn more about the American

- 40:57Speaker 1: Exercise is hard. So is maintaining a healthy diet. Of course,
- 41:03Speaker 1: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type 2 diabetes,
- 41:08Speaker 1: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
- 41:12Speaker 1: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 41:15Speaker 1: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
- 41:21Speaker 1: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type 2
- 41:24Speaker 1: diabetes and heart disease. And if your doctor recommends lifestyle
- 41:27Speaker 1: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
- 41:32Speaker 1: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
- 41:36Speaker 1: starting right now. It's your life. Listen to your doctor.

- 44:30Speaker 3: this Ted Steve morning. So this kid out of Michigan
- 44:34Speaker 3: admitted to taking overseas donations and that Abdul El-Sayed had
- 44:39Speaker 3: lots of overseas donors.
- 44:42Speaker 19: And so the question then remains, when does it become insignificant.
- 44:49Speaker 3: That because that's usually what happens when you find voter fraud.
- 45:06Speaker 3: It doesn't happen, then it's insignificant, then it's significant but
- 45:10Speaker 3: not enough to change the election, and then it becomes, well,
- 45:13Speaker 3: we've already certified the election, so that doesn't matter, to
- 45:21Speaker 3: we don't want to criminalize election process. It's funny because
- 45:28Speaker 3: election process is Dictated by law, you would think that
- 45:33Speaker 3: there being laws to dictate election processes would automatically criminalize
- 45:41Speaker 3: violations of those. But who are we to argue with
- 45:45Speaker 3: the smart ones in the room, right? The ones who
- 45:48Speaker 3: know all this stuff. So El-Sayed had a campaign staffer
- 45:56Speaker 3: tell James O'Keefe Media Group filmer that they have all
- 46:02Speaker 3: sorts of overseas. You can find it, James O'Keefe 3
- 46:08Speaker 3: on X, and all the videos are there. And their
- 46:14Speaker 3: argument is that he has no right to ask that question. Yeah,
- 46:19Speaker 3: he does. See, the responsibility of a journalist is to
- 46:23Speaker 3: ask the questions that the citizens would ask if they
- 46:27Speaker 3: had a chance. So Abdul El-Sayed's campaign is already number
- 46:35Speaker 3: one on record saying the citizens have no right to
- 46:39Speaker 3: ask questions of him so we can, number one, get
- 46:43Speaker 3: a pretty good litmus test of what kind of senator
- 46:47Speaker 3: he's going to be if he were to win. And
- 46:51Speaker 3: the polls are out there and they all say, oh, look,
- 46:53Speaker 3: El-Sayed's ahead of Rogers. And it's by the slimmest little margins.
- 47:04Speaker 3: And this is why I'm saying if conservatives can be
- 47:08Speaker 3: motivated to realize, and I know that President Trump is
- 47:13Speaker 3: trying to do his level media marketing best, which is
- 47:17Speaker 3: always say positive things, don't acknowledge. It's one of the
- 47:21Speaker 3: reasons why yesterday we were talking about Virginia was confronted
- 47:27Speaker 3: with the fact that they needed to call a special
- 47:30Speaker 3: session to appoint judges and And the leadership in Virginia
- 47:35Speaker 3: is all Democrats. And they had to call a special
- 47:38Speaker 3: session in of the General Assembly to nominate and vote
- 47:42Speaker 3: on judges. And then they caught wind, the leadership did,
- 47:46Speaker 3: that the Republicans were going to try to bring up
- 47:51Speaker 3: legislation to suspend the gas tax. And they weren't going
- 47:56Speaker 3: to win. They weren't going to win because they're in
- 47:59Speaker 3: the minority. But it would make the Democrats answer for it.
- 48:04Speaker 3: The uncomfortable question is why hasn't President Trump suspended the
- 48:09Speaker 3: gas tax? And I've got a simple answer, and I've
- 48:12Speaker 3: had it confirmed by a couple of folks, is that
- 48:15Speaker 3: the consultants that are working with the president have said
- 48:20Speaker 3: that if he lowers the gas tax, it appears to
- 48:25Speaker 3: the public and it will be portrayed in the press
- 48:29Speaker 3: that Donald Trump is the cause of the high gas prices.
- 48:36Speaker 3: And I know you get this headache. I get these
- 48:39Speaker 3: headaches when we try to put ourselves in the heads
- 48:44Speaker 3: of these political consultants. But this circle all the way
- 48:53Speaker 3: back to the beginning of the program, the question of lawlessness.
- 49:01Speaker 3: Is it democratic process if someone breaks the law to
- 49:05Speaker 3: win And I've said it that way intentionally because it
- 49:12Speaker 3: can't be about a Republican or a Democrat. If society
- 49:21Speaker 3: as a large is going to survive, we can't shrug
- 49:24Speaker 3: and say, oh, well, you know, he was just trying
- 49:27Speaker 3: to get, or oh, well, he didn't know, or oh, well,
- 49:31Speaker 3: he's just, you know, this is where the insurgency is.
- 49:36Speaker 3: The law clearly says you can't take money from overseas interests.
- 49:41Speaker 3: Does that mean it doesn't happen?
- 49:43Speaker 5: No.
- 49:44Speaker 3: I've seen different numbers from ActBlue. ActBlue can traffic anywhere
- 49:51Speaker 3: between 40% and 60% of this money, launder it, and
- 49:56Speaker 3: then they make the contribution for whatever the sales tax
- 50:06Speaker 3: may be. And you need to make sure that you're
- 50:18Speaker 3: paying attention to the gaslighting, that you're sensitive to it.
- 50:25Speaker 3: Because they want you to look the other way when
- 50:27Speaker 3: laws are broken. They want you to shrug and say, oh,
- 50:32Speaker 3: they're just politicizing law enforcement or they're trying to criminalize
- 50:37Speaker 3: the political process. It's not what's going on there. It's
- 50:42Speaker 3: not even close to what's going on there. Somebody has
- 50:51Speaker 3: broken a hard and fast law and doesn't want to
- 51:02Speaker 3: be held to account for it. Wants you to look
- 51:06Speaker 3: the other way because it's criminalizing crime. political speech, they'll
- 51:10Speaker 3: tell you. That's wrong. It's not. But they'll tell you
- 51:15Speaker 3: that because it sounds cool. It sounds cool. Sounds like
- 51:22Speaker 3: they're the outsider. And this is one of the reasons
- 51:24Speaker 3: we need to stop calling on this stuff because it's
- 51:28Speaker 3: giving them the opportunity to play the victim. Oh, dear
- 51:34Speaker 3: is me. Oh, dear is me. When we try to
- 51:54Speaker 3: imagine a world that doesn't have crime, are you able to?
- 52:00Speaker 16: No.
- 52:01Speaker 3: We all know that crime is going to happen. And
- 52:04Speaker 3: in these cases, like elections, you need to be confident
- 52:09Speaker 3: that your brain is being listened to. So watch out
- 52:22Speaker 3: for it. But it's all over the place. It's the
- 52:25Speaker 3: idea that just because something's against the law doesn't mean
- 52:29Speaker 3: you shouldn't do it. And I'm sorry it's that way,
- 52:33Speaker 3: but it's that way. And so just we need to
- 52:38Speaker 3: be right. We need to be right. We need to
- 52:40Speaker 3: watch out for each other. But it's time for us
- 52:44Speaker 3: to go. Till tomorrow. So long and thanks for all
- 52:48Speaker 3: the fish.
- 52:51Speaker 15: Much of neck and spinal pain is caused by the
- 52:53Speaker 15: compression of spinal nerves, according to Dr. Jeff Fisher, an Irvine,
- 52:57Speaker 15: California-based chiropractor with more than 30 years of experience. This
- 53:01Speaker 15: compression can stem from a chronic condition, acute injury, or
- 53:05Speaker 15: simply aging. Traction is the most effective way to relax, stretch,
- 53:09Speaker 15: and decompress the spine and surrounding muscles and ligaments of
- 53:12Speaker 15: the neck and back, Dr. Fisher explains. His inventions, the
- 53:16Speaker 15: Fisher Traction Neck Device and Fisher Traction Low Back Device,
- 53:20Speaker 15: safely separates bones to eliminate pain and restore function so
- 53:24Speaker 15: the body can heal naturally. The Fisher Traction devices are
- 53:27Speaker 15: designed to restore the natural curves of the neck and
- 53:30Speaker 15: back and gently induce hydration and motion into the spine
- 53:33Speaker 15: with the use of a release strap. The devices are
- 53:36Speaker 15: convenient and easy to use in the comfort of your home,
- 53:38Speaker 15: and Dr. Fisher's series of YouTube videos provides helpful videos
- 53:42Speaker 15: and detailed instructions. For more information, visit FisherTraction.com.
