- 0:01Speaker 2: It's news and it's coming up at the top of
- 0:04Speaker 2: the hour fifty five krs the talk station. Good morning,
- 0:24Speaker 2: fifty five krc DE Talk Station. I didn't even look
- 0:31Speaker 2: for the microphone until the music started playing and I
- 0:35Speaker 2: saw it was way over there. I'm getting everything else.
- 0:39Speaker 2: I'm thinking, man, I got my computer set up, got
- 0:43Speaker 2: all my paperwork in front of me, all the stuff
- 0:45Speaker 2: that Joe, Joe Strucker laid out for me. Then I say,
- 0:48Speaker 2: where's the mic. It's way over there, so we are
- 0:52Speaker 2: ready to rock him. It's Dan carrollin for Brian Thomas
- 0:55Speaker 2: on this Monday morning. It is June the twentieth, and
- 1:00Speaker 2: if you haven't marked it on your calendar, Joe, do
- 1:02Speaker 2: you haven't marked on your calendar that today the Hamilton
- 1:06Speaker 2: County Juvenile Court is hosting the Equality Ohio Legal Clinic
- 1:11Speaker 2: for trans and LGBTQ youth. It's on this calendar. I
- 1:23Speaker 2: may run that by Chris Smithman when he joins us,
- 1:27Speaker 2: at how long do we have Chris for today? Just
- 1:29Speaker 2: the regular segment? Because yeah, because I could, there's so
- 1:36Speaker 2: much stuff here. You got this and on June, not June,
- 1:42Speaker 2: but July the ninth, which was today's twentieth, So this
- 1:47Speaker 2: was eleven days ago. Here's the post that the Juvenile
- 1:52Speaker 2: Court put out. Hamilton County Juvenile Court will be hosting
- 1:56Speaker 2: and they're using the word hosting the Equality Ohio Legal
- 2:01Speaker 2: Clinic in partnership with Cincinnati Pride trans Ohio Equality Ohio
- 2:10Speaker 2: and you know it says it's at the Assessment Center
- 2:12Speaker 2: twenty two sixty four William Howard Taft. Volunteers will be
- 2:17Speaker 2: available to assist with name changes, gender marker updates, and
- 2:22Speaker 2: criminal record ceiling if you have your If you have it,
- 2:27Speaker 2: please bring your birth certificate. To my way of thinking,
- 2:34Speaker 2: this is not something that the Juvenile Court should be
- 2:37Speaker 2: involved with. I don't know why it is the court's
- 2:44Speaker 2: business or the court should have a stake in the
- 2:47Speaker 2: sexuality of any one, not just kids. And furthermore, I
- 2:55Speaker 2: don't know why the court should be involved in assisting
- 2:59Speaker 2: these kids to transition or change their gender, or leading
- 3:06Speaker 2: them to believe they can change their sex in any
- 3:09Speaker 2: sort of way. It is absolutely one of the most
- 3:14Speaker 2: destructive things that you can do to a kid, and
- 3:17Speaker 2: our juvenile Court is right there to help him out,
- 3:21Speaker 2: right there to assist them on their way. I just
- 3:26Speaker 2: think that this is completely out of bounds, and I'll
- 3:31Speaker 2: be interested to find out what Chris Smitheman thinks about
- 3:35Speaker 2: this when we speak with him a little after seven
- 3:38Speaker 2: o'clock this morning, so I hope you can stick around
- 3:40Speaker 2: for that. Also be interested to see what he thinks
- 3:43Speaker 2: about the the recommitment to the collaborative agreements. Iris Rowley
- 3:50Speaker 2: had a big meeting about this last week, and apparently
- 3:57Speaker 2: Cincinnati leaders all about him at a signal ninety nine
- 4:00Speaker 2: has put out a huge missive on this today. I
- 4:03Speaker 2: guess you did over the weekend, and we may get
- 4:07Speaker 2: into some of that as we move along. But so
- 4:10Speaker 2: much stuff, so much stuff, And hold on, I got
- 4:14Speaker 2: my cup of coffee. Yeah, just build a little bit.
- 4:19Speaker 2: I'll be all right. Brian Thomas was taking the is
- 4:23Speaker 2: he got the whole week off. Joe's was this Monday, Monday,
- 4:26Speaker 2: Tuesday all week all week. More So, that's a nice
- 4:29Speaker 2: two week vacation for Brian Thomas. I don't want to
- 4:32Speaker 2: thank Joe and Tony Bender and everyone else who's involved
- 4:37Speaker 2: letting me sit in for h three days five one
- 4:40Speaker 2: three seven. If you if you want to get on board,
- 4:45Speaker 2: what else? What else? I was, honestly, there was so
- 4:50Speaker 2: much stuff that I was show prepping last night yesterday afternoon,
- 4:57Speaker 2: and I, uh, I just I was like, man, there
- 5:01Speaker 2: there's just so much stuff to talk about. Mondanni in
- 5:08Speaker 2: New York City talking about how he wants to arrest
- 5:14Speaker 2: Benjamin nettan Yahoo if he comes to New York City
- 5:17Speaker 2: and he said this before. Yeah, I think he said
- 5:21Speaker 2: that during the campaign that he believes that he believes
- 5:27Speaker 2: that Netta, who is a war crimin earal, says he
- 5:30Speaker 2: belongs in the Hague. So somehow Mandanni thinks it is uh,
- 5:38Speaker 2: you know, it rests on his shoulders to see that
- 5:41Speaker 2: net in Yahoo gets put under arrest. And one of
- 5:50Speaker 2: the one of the questions that was asked to uh
- 5:58Speaker 2: John Fetterman by Maria Bartiromo was about this. And John
- 6:04Speaker 2: Fetterman has really been terrific lately. I saw another piece
- 6:08Speaker 2: where he was talking about I think there's a I
- 6:14Speaker 2: don't want to say it's growing, but I think there's
- 6:16Speaker 2: some people who think that Fetterman on a switch parties.
- 6:19Speaker 2: I'm not there yet. I think you know the guy,
- 6:22Speaker 2: he says a lot of sensible things. John Fetterman is
- 6:27Speaker 2: saying more sensible things than any other Democrat right now,
- 6:32Speaker 2: and so Jed, do we have cut number two ready?
- 6:36Speaker 2: John Fetterman was with Maria Bartiromo and he was asked
- 6:39Speaker 2: about this thing with Montdannie and Fetterman had a great
- 6:43Speaker 2: response to it. Cut number two, Senator.
- 6:47Speaker 3: It complicates things that you've got these very far left
- 6:50Speaker 3: candidates winning and socialists now in leadership positions. I mean,
- 6:54Speaker 3: you've got the mayor of New York, Zoron Mamdani threatening
- 6:58Speaker 3: that he will have Benjamintin now who arrested if he
- 7:02Speaker 3: comes to New York for the you and General UNNGA
- 7:08Speaker 3: which is happening in September. What are your thoughts here
- 7:11Speaker 3: on mom Donnie threatening to arrest Benjamin Tanyahu if he
- 7:13Speaker 3: comes to the US.
- 7:17Speaker 4: It's such a tough guy to say that kind of thing.
- 7:20Speaker 2: He has no way to do that.
- 7:22Speaker 4: Of course, obviously America is not even part of that
- 7:25Speaker 4: corrupt court, and so he's just a clown to even
- 7:30Speaker 4: say that. So he won't try that, and now just
- 7:34Speaker 4: sit down and focus on other the problems that they
- 7:37Speaker 4: have in New York. That's really not your purview. You
- 7:40Speaker 4: and I know that, sit down.
- 7:45Speaker 2: He's just a clown, sit down and concentrate on the
- 7:50Speaker 2: problems that you have in New York. That is absolutely fantastic.
- 7:57Speaker 2: He's a clown, and Donnie's got He's got his fair
- 8:02Speaker 2: share of problems in New York, none of which he's
- 8:06Speaker 2: addressing in a serious way. All he's doing is looking
- 8:09Speaker 2: to get more tax dollars from the rich, more social spending,
- 8:14Speaker 2: implementing his communist agenda. New York appears to be on
- 8:19Speaker 2: the verge Great Piece and Breitbart here on the verge
- 8:22Speaker 2: of replicating Los Angeles by establishing its own crime ridden
- 8:26Speaker 2: skid row in the form of a twelve block long
- 8:30Speaker 2: homeless encampment that continues to grow on Manhattan's West Side.
- 8:36Speaker 2: Those who live, work, and visit nearby are telling at
- 8:38Speaker 2: least one news outlet that the city is failing to
- 8:41Speaker 2: address the tents, the trash, and reported illegal activity in
- 8:46Speaker 2: the alarming stretch of vagrant dwellings between the Intrepid Museum
- 8:51Speaker 2: and the Jacob Javit Center. The Jacob Javid Center, isn't
- 8:56Speaker 2: that where where? I think? That's when Cuoma was the mayor,
- 9:02Speaker 2: where he wanted to take all the all the Wuhan
- 9:04Speaker 2: patients wanted to take them all there and put them
- 9:11Speaker 2: all in one place. I mean, what Cuomo did during
- 9:16Speaker 2: the Wuhan was an absolute disgrace, but that the Javid
- 9:21Speaker 2: Center rings a bell for some reason. I think it's embarrassing,
- 9:25Speaker 2: said Joan G. A woman asked for who asked for anonymity,
- 9:29Speaker 2: told Fox News near the encampment. Montanni meanwhile, told reporters
- 9:34Speaker 2: he'd do something about the mess, but failed to give
- 9:36Speaker 2: a timeline. The site has been noticed that it'll be cleared,
- 9:39Speaker 2: said the mayor. As with any sight, once we noticed,
- 9:43Speaker 2: there is seven days until the point of clearing. Each
- 9:47Speaker 2: of the seven days is characterized by outreach from the
- 9:49Speaker 2: city looking to connect those who are present with services,
- 9:54Speaker 2: whether it be shelter, medical services, or support. Blah blah
- 9:57Speaker 2: blah blah blah. Now that's that's man. Donnie's New York
- 10:02Speaker 2: and fetterman is one hundred percent right. Yeah here here
- 10:06Speaker 2: a clown. You don't have the authority to do it,
- 10:10Speaker 2: but yet he and and and what he had one
- 10:13Speaker 2: of his assistants last week, I was trying to set
- 10:17Speaker 2: a meeting with one of Iran's foreign ministers, and you know,
- 10:21Speaker 2: talk talk a little policy, little policy discussion, and I
- 10:27Speaker 2: think I think the was either the Homeland Security or
- 10:30Speaker 2: the Department of Justice found out about it and shut
- 10:33Speaker 2: that down. So yeah, Fetterman is right, Sit down, you clown,
- 10:39Speaker 2: and we need more stuff like that. I'm not I'm
- 10:41Speaker 2: not ready for him to. I don't think he really
- 10:45Speaker 2: wants to jump parties when it comes, you know, when
- 10:48Speaker 2: the rubber hits the road. He still votes Democrat a lot,
- 10:52Speaker 2: votes with he does very rare and when he's he's
- 10:55Speaker 2: pretty he's pretty strong. When it comes to Israel, he
- 10:58Speaker 2: stands up against all the anti Israel stuff, but anything else,
- 11:03Speaker 2: he's voting with Democrats pretty much right down the line.
- 11:06Speaker 2: Five to sixteen. You got to get to a break.
- 11:07Speaker 2: We'll check the forecast and more. Very nice, very pleasant.
- 11:10Speaker 2: Joe was nice out when you stepped out this morning.
- 11:12Speaker 2: Wasn't it nice outside of very nice? Like seventy degrees
- 11:16Speaker 2: And it looks like things are cooling off just a
- 11:18Speaker 2: little bit. So we'll have all that and more on
- 11:20Speaker 2: fifty five KRCV talkstations.
- 11:23Speaker 5: Have you heard the news?
- 11:29Speaker 2: Dan Carolyn for Brian Thomas on this Monday morning, July twentieth.
- 11:35Speaker 2: Of course, President Trump made his speech on Thursday night
- 11:41Speaker 2: and I've got a whole bunch of stuff about how
- 11:44Speaker 2: the media refused to cover it and how they continue
- 11:49Speaker 2: to downplay the documents that were released and the information
- 11:56Speaker 2: contained therein the UH. The Federalist has UH has done
- 12:04Speaker 2: a couple of UH and there's been a few of
- 12:09Speaker 2: not mainstream media outlets that have really looked at any
- 12:13Speaker 2: of the documents and decided to, you know, report on
- 12:19Speaker 2: what is contained in those documents, because all they want
- 12:23Speaker 2: to do is continue the narrative that that Trump is
- 12:27Speaker 2: off as rocker, that we really don't have an issue
- 12:32Speaker 2: when it can when it comes to elections in this country.
- 12:37Speaker 2: And I was reading another article that reminded everybody of
- 12:43Speaker 2: when when the voting machines first came out, it was
- 12:48Speaker 2: it was the Democrats who spent a lot of time
- 12:52Speaker 2: pointing out how these machines were were dangerous, that that
- 12:58Speaker 2: they could be hacked, that they weren't to be trusted.
- 13:05Speaker 2: It was a Democrat, I mean, and Kamala Harris was
- 13:07Speaker 2: one of them who had a demonstration right there on
- 13:12Speaker 2: the right there in the Senate committee showing how troubling
- 13:16Speaker 2: it is. Well, you know what now now that Trump
- 13:19Speaker 2: wants Trump has been talking about it now. Our elections
- 13:23Speaker 2: are fine. They're just perfectly fine. Contained in the trove
- 13:27Speaker 2: of election related documents President Trump policed to the public
- 13:30Speaker 2: Thursday are the FBI's investigative files and communications about possible
- 13:36Speaker 2: voter registration fraud schemes and muskeg and Michigan that ended
- 13:41Speaker 2: without prosecution. In twenty twenty, the Muskegean Police Department in
- 13:45Speaker 2: Michigan State Police identified a possible voter registration fraud scheme
- 13:51Speaker 2: centered on a firm called GBI Strategies. It prompted an investigation,
- 13:58Speaker 2: after which the materials were turned over to the FBI.
- 14:02Speaker 2: According to dozens of pages of police reports, those are
- 14:06Speaker 2: you know, those are what we call documents, police reports,
- 14:10Speaker 2: FBI reports, notes, memos, emails, other communications like text messages
- 14:19Speaker 2: and stuff like that. Those are documents. Those are things
- 14:22Speaker 2: that show you know exactly what was going on. The
- 14:27Speaker 2: declassified files show for the first time now the FBI
- 14:31Speaker 2: conducted its investigation into the alleged or the allegations, and
- 14:35Speaker 2: provide new details about what became of the pro document
- 14:40Speaker 2: state that some canvassers admitted to FBI agents that they
- 14:45Speaker 2: signed voter registration forms in other people's names. Submitted fraudulent
- 14:50Speaker 2: registration for people who did not exist and received gift
- 14:55Speaker 2: cards tied to their numbers of applications that they produced.
- 15:00Speaker 2: Trump said on Thursday, in other words, it was pay
- 15:03Speaker 2: play and cheat. President is asking that the FBI reopened
- 15:08Speaker 2: the probe to ensure the matter is fully investigated, and
- 15:15Speaker 2: accused the Biden administration of slow walking the probe. The
- 15:18Speaker 2: Muskegan Police Department began investigating GBI strategies after the clerk's
- 15:24Speaker 2: office there reported suspected voter registration fraud. According to a
- 15:29Speaker 2: police report data in October sixteenth, twenty twenty, which just
- 15:33Speaker 2: the News obtained from a foyer request, the police department,
- 15:37Speaker 2: alongside with Michigan State Police, found that some of the
- 15:40Speaker 2: registration forums included biographical information that did not match real
- 15:45Speaker 2: people or addresses that did not exist. And this is
- 15:51Speaker 2: part of part of the fraud that I've been talking
- 15:55Speaker 2: about for years, that would you would have multiple people
- 16:00Speaker 2: registered at an address that was in many times an
- 16:04Speaker 2: empty lot or a convenience store or something of that nature,
- 16:10Speaker 2: where thirty or forty or fifty or seventy five people
- 16:14Speaker 2: could not live at that one address. But what the
- 16:21Speaker 2: FBI did with the information remains a mystery. In September
- 16:24Speaker 2: of twenty three, the FBI denied a four yer request
- 16:27Speaker 2: from Just the News seeking its investigative files. Now the
- 16:33Speaker 2: public documents show that the FBI team in Detroit conducted
- 16:36Speaker 2: several interviews with canvassers who register people to vote as
- 16:40Speaker 2: part of the campaign organized by GBI Strategies. Many told
- 16:43Speaker 2: investigators that they were told to fill out false information
- 16:48Speaker 2: or they believe it was likely that others were doing so.
- 16:52Speaker 2: According to the FBI, three two memos that were made
- 16:56Speaker 2: public by the Lighthouse, and I was on the radio
- 16:58Speaker 2: Thursday night when Trump was making the speech, and I
- 17:02Speaker 2: went to White House dot gov and I pulled up
- 17:04Speaker 2: some of these members and people were telling FBI agents, Yeah,
- 17:09Speaker 2: you know, I got this job. Don't really remember. I
- 17:11Speaker 2: didn't have it too long. Don't remember who I was
- 17:14Speaker 2: really working for. But I you know, I had my
- 17:17Speaker 2: papers and the clipboard, and one guy said, I'd just
- 17:20Speaker 2: sit in the car and with a buddy and I'd
- 17:23Speaker 2: write in names of people I knew, or we'd sit
- 17:26Speaker 2: there and make up names and addresses and put it
- 17:28Speaker 2: on the format. They get, they get paid for it.
- 17:29Speaker 2: Oh look, voter registration. All these people are going to vote.
- 17:37Speaker 2: One employee alleged that the leadership said, put any number
- 17:42Speaker 2: that you could think of for a social Security number.
- 17:44Speaker 2: Don't use your own social Security number or date of birth,
- 17:47Speaker 2: but just make them up. Another Canvassar, worked for the
- 17:53Speaker 2: company for about a week in twenty twenty, said he
- 17:56Speaker 2: never collected any names, but would just sit in his
- 17:58Speaker 2: car the whole shift and put down names friends or relatives.
- 18:02Speaker 2: Another employee disputed the allegations Canvassars were directed to the
- 18:07Speaker 2: fill in false information, but noted most of the employees
- 18:09Speaker 2: submitted voter registration with false information because it was easy money.
- 18:15Speaker 2: It was easy money. She says she never submitted applications
- 18:19Speaker 2: with any fake signatures, but heard about others who were
- 18:22Speaker 2: doing so. So, yeah, all this kind of stuff is
- 18:25Speaker 2: in the documents that that that Trump polices. So if
- 18:28Speaker 2: you know, the news organizations want to go out and
- 18:31Speaker 2: spend their time, you know, maybe reading the documents and
- 18:34Speaker 2: reporting on what happened, we'd have a lot more stuff
- 18:37Speaker 2: like this to go on. Five twenty seven, Late for
- 18:39Speaker 2: a Break, fifty five KRCV talkstations. Moeger here, my friends
- 18:42Speaker 2: at window work, Dan Carolyn for Brian Thomas. On this
- 18:50Speaker 2: Monday morning, five one three seven, five hundred and as usual,
- 18:56Speaker 2: Tom has picked up the phone and wants to check
- 18:58Speaker 2: in this morning, Tom, how are I this morning?
- 19:01Speaker 6: I'm doing well. And as soon as I heard the
- 19:04Speaker 6: opening bumper music, I knew it was gonna be.
- 19:06Speaker 2: You boy Joe's always rolling out to Van Halen.
- 19:10Speaker 6: Hell, yeah, I love it. That's a great, that's a great.
- 19:14Speaker 6: A few seconds of guitar for Eddie to start that song,
- 19:17Speaker 6: That's that's awesome. Uh. First of all, I'm I'm glad
- 19:22Speaker 6: the World Cup is over. I was set up probably
- 19:25Speaker 6: a week before it even started.
- 19:27Speaker 2: You've had your fill, You've had your fill of World
- 19:29Speaker 2: Cup activities. Huh.
- 19:30Speaker 6: If if you want to be taken seriously as a sport, Uh,
- 19:34Speaker 6: there can't be as much of this acting like your
- 19:37Speaker 6: leg is broken because some other dude happened to happen
- 19:42Speaker 6: to hit your legs.
- 19:42Speaker 2: Isn't that? Isn't that? When every time those players had
- 19:47Speaker 2: a little tangle up or they got kicked by another player,
- 19:49Speaker 2: I mean they they grabbed, they grabbed their lower extremity,
- 19:53Speaker 2: the playing and anguish on their faces, and I thought, look,
- 19:58Speaker 2: I bought into it. The first couple of times, I
- 20:01Speaker 2: saw him like, man, that dude's really hurt. And then
- 20:03Speaker 2: you know, thirty seconds later he's popping back up and
- 20:06Speaker 2: run around the field.
- 20:08Speaker 6: Right.
- 20:08Speaker 2: So after a while, it took me. It took me
- 20:10Speaker 2: a few times to figure out. Yeah, there's a lot
- 20:12Speaker 2: of play acting there.
- 20:13Speaker 6: So just a little, just a little bit, a little. Yeah.
- 20:20Speaker 6: I had had a little interaction over the weekend. Actually
- 20:23Speaker 6: my wife did, but I want to bring it up.
- 20:26Speaker 6: We had some old pool chemicals We've been been sitting
- 20:28Speaker 6: on a shelf in the garage for years, and we
- 20:31Speaker 6: realized we need to get rid of these things. And
- 20:33Speaker 6: it's very expensive to try to dispose of them properly.
- 20:37Speaker 2: Really.
- 20:38Speaker 6: Oh yeah, you got to pay like by the pound,
- 20:40Speaker 6: and oh yeah, yeah, it wasn't very much. I mean
- 20:43Speaker 6: it was like thirty some pounds.
- 20:45Speaker 2: Well, let me ask you this poem. Let me ask
- 20:46Speaker 2: you this, Tom. Do pool chemicals? Do they have a
- 20:49Speaker 2: shelf life? Do they go bad? Do they expire?
- 20:53Speaker 6: I don't know a certain time. I actually don't know.
- 20:56Speaker 2: Do you not have the pool anymore? I?
- 20:59Speaker 6: I you know what, it's interesting, I never I never
- 21:02Speaker 6: set the pool up to begin with Okay, we got
- 21:04Speaker 6: all these chemicals with a pool that somebody gave us
- 21:07Speaker 6: and we never set it up, and that's gotta be
- 21:09Speaker 6: fifteen years ago. So the person that will end up
- 21:11Speaker 6: getting them from us, well, they're gonna find out. But
- 21:13Speaker 6: the interesting part was my life after we realized it
- 21:16Speaker 6: was gonna cost us like seventy five dollars to get
- 21:18Speaker 6: rid of these.
- 21:19Speaker 2: Wow.
- 21:19Speaker 6: Right, well, let's let's post them on Let's post them
- 21:21Speaker 6: on Facebook. Let's see if somebody wants them, we'll just
- 21:24Speaker 6: give them away. You know then that let's that's now
- 21:26Speaker 6: it's their problem. So my life posts this thing, and
- 21:30Speaker 6: I mean within thirty seconds of hitting sin or whatever
- 21:33Speaker 6: ent or whatever she hit, her phone starts blowing up.
- 21:36Speaker 6: All these people want these pool chemicals. Okay, great, well
- 21:39Speaker 6: then this is gonna we should have done this years ago.
- 21:41Speaker 6: All right, great, so we're gonna get rid of these.
- 21:43Speaker 6: So she's trying to respond to everybody, letting them know.
- 21:47Speaker 6: You know, she goes with the first person to respond,
- 21:49Speaker 6: you're the one who's gonna get whatever it is she's
- 21:51Speaker 6: selling or giving away. If you were first, then and
- 21:54Speaker 6: then we're gonna go with you until you can't do
- 21:56Speaker 6: it and then we'll move on down the list, you know,
- 21:59Speaker 6: in order in order that you responded. Well, the lady
- 22:02Speaker 6: turned out being third. When my wife told her, I've
- 22:06Speaker 6: already got somebody. I'll let you know, you know, if
- 22:09Speaker 6: it doesn't work out, this lady turns on my life.
- 22:12Speaker 6: And of course this is all online, you know, and
- 22:15Speaker 6: like you're racist. Oh my god, over over old pool chemicals.
- 22:21Speaker 2: You know what I thought, you know what I thought
- 22:23Speaker 2: you were going to tell me. I thought you were
- 22:24Speaker 2: going to tell me they were all bots. That the
- 22:28Speaker 2: responses came so fast that that these bots were in
- 22:32Speaker 2: turn going to try to sell you something or try
- 22:35Speaker 2: to mine, you know, try to mine your information or
- 22:37Speaker 2: get you the compromise, you know, hotel, send me your
- 22:39Speaker 2: bank account and I'll send you the money, you know,
- 22:41Speaker 2: something like that.
- 22:42Speaker 6: Yeah, I actually would have preferred that over this, because
- 22:46Speaker 6: it's sad how lazy people are, and how how stupid
- 22:51Speaker 6: they are, how gullible and willing to go down that
- 22:54Speaker 6: road so quickly and so easily to bring racism into
- 23:00Speaker 6: hitting free pool chemicals, you know, from from somebody you
- 23:04Speaker 6: don't even know. They're just giving them away. Apparently, these
- 23:06Speaker 6: I mean, these things are hot. She must have got
- 23:08Speaker 6: ten or twelve, you know, notifications within a couple of minutes.
- 23:12Speaker 2: I guess, yeah, I think pool chemicals are fairly expensive
- 23:15Speaker 2: right now. And I know, yeah, I know some folks
- 23:18Speaker 2: who have who have swimming pools, and they and they
- 23:20Speaker 2: talk about that all the time.
- 23:22Speaker 6: You know. Part of the reason I never said it
- 23:25Speaker 6: up is how much time and effort it takes into
- 23:28Speaker 6: to maintaining a pool.
- 23:31Speaker 2: If you have a pool in your backyard, it is
- 23:33Speaker 2: it is a It is a considerable amount of work
- 23:36Speaker 2: to keep that thing looking nice and and up and running.
- 23:39Speaker 2: You know, my friends, I've got a you know, a
- 23:42Speaker 2: good buddy of mine lives right down the street from
- 23:44Speaker 2: where I live, and we enjoy his backyard pool quite often.
- 23:48Speaker 2: And so I always appreciate that because it always looks beautiful.
- 23:52Speaker 6: I guess it's nice when you have a friend that
- 23:54Speaker 6: has a pool that where you don't have to take
- 23:56Speaker 6: care of it. But I brought this up to talk
- 23:58Speaker 6: about how how ezy people are with this whole racism thing,
- 24:03Speaker 6: and it's it is lazy, and it's and it's ignorant
- 24:06Speaker 6: and stupid, and people want to stay that way. Well,
- 24:09Speaker 6: you want to be able to use it. And then
- 24:11Speaker 6: the lady turns around and well.
- 24:12Speaker 2: Our city hall, our city hall is practicing some of
- 24:16Speaker 2: that right now. Well, you know with the with the
- 24:19Speaker 2: report about uh, you know, the the police stops and
- 24:23Speaker 2: all the rest of that.
- 24:24Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, it's it's lazy. It's lazy, Dan, It's lazy
- 24:28Speaker 6: and ignorant and stupid, and we and this makes up
- 24:31Speaker 6: the vast majority of the vote voting blocks of the
- 24:34Speaker 6: Democrat Party, and it's it's just it's a shame. So
- 24:37Speaker 6: let's let's talk to your neighbors, talk to your friends,
- 24:40Speaker 6: and make sure we tell them don't vote Democrat.
- 24:42Speaker 2: Tom. I appreciate the phone call, buddy, have a great morning,
- 24:44Speaker 2: and thanks for checking in. Yeah. Then all you're trying
- 24:47Speaker 2: to do is get rid of some pool chemicals. Nothing
- 24:50Speaker 2: racist about that. Five thirty six fifty five k r
- 24:53Speaker 2: CV Talk Station, Big Meeting Date Night, fresh En Up
- 24:56Speaker 2: Fast with them Percy the Talk Station, Dan Carell for
- 25:07Speaker 2: Brian Thomas. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday this week. So looking forward
- 25:12Speaker 2: to being here all three days. One of the biggest
- 25:16Speaker 2: revelations from Trump's declassified election documents dump on Thursday was
- 25:22Speaker 2: a report indicating that the Chinese Communist Party acquired and
- 25:26Speaker 2: exploited American voter data to influence a twenty twenty election.
- 25:32Speaker 2: One FBI information report released alleged China manufactured tens of
- 25:36Speaker 2: thousands of fraudulent driver's licenses using data harvested from millions
- 25:41Speaker 2: of TikTok accounts. Huh, TikTok accounts? All that data going
- 25:49Speaker 2: straight to China? Dave, I think we covered that territory
- 25:53Speaker 2: with Dave or not Dave, but Joe. We covered that
- 25:56Speaker 2: territory with Dave Hatter several times, did we not on
- 26:00Speaker 2: a weekly basis talking about TikTok? So the data was
- 26:06Speaker 2: harvested to ensure non citizens, Chinese students and immigrants sympathetic
- 26:11Speaker 2: to the authoritarian regime could send mail in votes for
- 26:14Speaker 2: Joe Biden in twenty twenty. Imagine that. Imagine that mail
- 26:21Speaker 2: in mail in votes that went to Biden in twenty twenty.
- 26:26Speaker 2: Here's the text of the memo. In late August of
- 26:29Speaker 2: twenty twenty, the Chinese government had produced a large amount
- 26:34Speaker 2: of fraudulent US United States drivers' licenses that were secretly
- 26:40Speaker 2: exported to the United States. The fraudulent driver's licenses would
- 26:46Speaker 2: allow tens of thousands of Chinese students and immigrants sympathetic
- 26:50Speaker 2: to the Chinese Communist Party to vote for US presidential
- 26:55Speaker 2: candidate Joe Biden despite not beingligible to vote in the
- 27:01Speaker 2: United States. China had collected private US user data from
- 27:06Speaker 2: millions of TikTok accounts to include name, ID and address
- 27:11Speaker 2: which would follow the Chinese government or what I'm saying?
- 27:15Speaker 2: Which would I should say? Which would allow the Chinese
- 27:17Speaker 2: government to use real US persons information to create the
- 27:22Speaker 2: fraudulent driver's licenses. The fraudulent driver's licenses were to include
- 27:29Speaker 2: true ID number and true address of US citizens, making
- 27:33Speaker 2: them difficult to detect. China plan to use the fraudulent
- 27:37Speaker 2: licenses to account for tens of thousands of mail in
- 27:43Speaker 2: votes mail in voting. How many times were we told
- 27:49Speaker 2: that it's perfectly safe, perfectly, perfectly secure, no problems whatsoever.
- 27:58Speaker 2: The allegation is alarming, But not as alarmed is the
- 28:00Speaker 2: fact that over the next few decades, China could hack
- 28:02Speaker 2: US elections without ever breaking the law, risking punishment or
- 28:06Speaker 2: even raising the eyebrows of the intelligence community. Thanks to
- 28:11Speaker 2: the Supreme Court's recent birthplace citizenship ruling Yes Fourteenth Amendment
- 28:19Speaker 2: UH the CCP doesn't need to manufacture fake IDs anymore.
- 28:24Speaker 2: It's a cutting just to help them eliminate that necessary
- 28:28Speaker 2: step right there. They don't need to manufacture the fake
- 28:30Speaker 2: IDs to sway votes in favor of Democrats. All China
- 28:34Speaker 2: has to do is take advantage of Americas of America's
- 28:38Speaker 2: elections is to use birth tourism to manufacture babies who
- 28:43Speaker 2: are entitled to real American IDs as soon as they
- 28:47Speaker 2: are born in the United States. China's already known as
- 28:51Speaker 2: a top exploiter of the US birth tourism industry. One
- 28:56Speaker 2: twenty four report claim Chinese nationals make up forty one
- 28:59Speaker 2: points seven percent of the surrogacy contracts between foreigners and
- 29:04Speaker 2: American women between twenty fourteen and twenty twenty. During that
- 29:09Speaker 2: same period, that same period of time, foreigners use or
- 29:14Speaker 2: foreigner's use of American birthplace citizenship surrogacy increased by seventy
- 29:20Speaker 2: eight percent. At that rate, the CCP, the Chinese Communist
- 29:27Speaker 2: Party could ballot harvest an entire generation of Americans who
- 29:31Speaker 2: are sold to any foreigner rich enough to rent a
- 29:36Speaker 2: US woman's womb, get that baby some US paperwork, and
- 29:41Speaker 2: wish the child back to be raised in China, because
- 29:44Speaker 2: the Supreme Court ruled that if an infant is born
- 29:47Speaker 2: on US soil, that child will be entitled to all
- 29:52Speaker 2: the rights of an American child, an American citizen, including
- 29:56Speaker 2: the right to cast a ballot as an overseas citizen,
- 30:01Speaker 2: even though he is susceptible to indoctrination and weaponization by
- 30:09Speaker 2: the communist regime. Amazing how it all works together. Yes,
- 30:16Speaker 2: born in the United States, no matter the circumstance, instantly,
- 30:20Speaker 2: instantly an American citizen. It's not the intention, not the
- 30:27Speaker 2: meaning of the fourteenth Amendment. But of course John Roberts
- 30:33Speaker 2: was able to divine that that's exactly what the what
- 30:38Speaker 2: the founders intended and those who authored the fourteenth Amendment,
- 30:46Speaker 2: and so it just they just opened up that avenue
- 30:49Speaker 2: to China. And we know that the Chinese have been
- 30:54Speaker 2: doing this for a long time now, bringing people in,
- 31:01Speaker 2: bring them in when they're pregnant. Boom, born on the
- 31:04Speaker 2: US soil, back to China, and now you can send
- 31:07Speaker 2: in all the mail in ballots. You like, what a
- 31:10Speaker 2: great plan. Five forty seven fifty five KRC the Talk station,
- 31:14Speaker 2: Mike Klara, Kenny veteran friends, you don't need to dry
- 31:16Speaker 2: to the VA medical appointments and talk station fifty five KRC,
- 31:31Speaker 2: the talk station Dan Carroll from Brian Thomas. So we
- 31:36Speaker 2: had the Chinese who were collecting all the information off TikTok,
- 31:41Speaker 2: but they don't have to do that anymore because the
- 31:44Speaker 2: Supreme Court paved the way for China to have as
- 31:48Speaker 2: much birther Or tourism as they want right here in
- 31:50Speaker 2: the United States. Hopefully there will be some legislation passed,
- 31:54Speaker 2: and I believe there is some in the works to
- 31:58Speaker 2: bring the whole birther to Ism thing to a stop.
- 32:03Speaker 2: And I don't have it up in front of me
- 32:07Speaker 2: right now, but I believe the House is getting ready
- 32:10Speaker 2: to go on Joe, the House is going to have
- 32:13Speaker 2: another recess in August because they don't take enough time off.
- 32:18Speaker 2: My god, I think they've worked what two weeks in July,
- 32:22Speaker 2: and now I think they're going to take off the
- 32:24Speaker 2: whole month of August. It's a beautiful thing, but yeah,
- 32:28Speaker 2: so there's really no little chance that anything is going
- 32:32Speaker 2: to get done before the August recess. Now, it turns
- 32:39Speaker 2: out the DOJ says it is no longer illegal for
- 32:43Speaker 2: federal workers to download TikTok on government devices. I don't
- 32:49Speaker 2: really think this is a good idea. Justice Department this
- 32:52Speaker 2: week determined in an opinion that a federal law banning
- 32:57Speaker 2: TikTok from government devices no longer applies to the social
- 33:01Speaker 2: video app after the United States created its own version
- 33:06Speaker 2: with non Chinese investors. Really, are we supposed to buy
- 33:16Speaker 2: the notion that TikTok is fine and dandy now because
- 33:20Speaker 2: there are no more Chinese investors than TikTok. Is it
- 33:25Speaker 2: the same app? Is it the same algorithm? Is it
- 33:28Speaker 2: the same computer program that was used by TikTok users
- 33:34Speaker 2: from the very beginning? And I just read you the
- 33:38Speaker 2: piece where China was collecting all the data from TikTok users.
- 33:42Speaker 2: You know, I used to when I when I would
- 33:44Speaker 2: talk to Dave Hatter about that, I would say, why
- 33:48Speaker 2: does China want all this information? And this is what
- 33:54Speaker 2: one There are multiple reasons, but this is one very
- 33:57Speaker 2: good reason why they would want in form like this
- 34:01Speaker 2: that they can collect right off their app, again, a
- 34:03Speaker 2: pipeline of user information right to China, so they could
- 34:11Speaker 2: create fake IDs, have people send in votes. Well, now
- 34:14Speaker 2: they don't need to create the fake IDs anymore, because
- 34:17Speaker 2: the Supreme Court has paved the way for China and
- 34:22Speaker 2: other countries to have as much birther tourism here as
- 34:25Speaker 2: they damn well please. And now the Justice Department is saying, yeah,
- 34:30Speaker 2: it's okay, and now we own TikTok. Now, go ahead
- 34:33Speaker 2: and put it on your government device. I don't, Joe,
- 34:42Speaker 2: does that sound like a good idea to you? Even
- 34:45Speaker 2: though they're saying that, hey, look were you Americans? We
- 34:48Speaker 2: own this. Now you're telling me that you believe that
- 34:55Speaker 2: everything is so uptight with TikTok that if we with
- 35:00Speaker 2: these on government devices, that there's no way that the
- 35:04Speaker 2: Chinese can get in there and worm their way even
- 35:07Speaker 2: further into whatever government computers these things are linked to.
- 35:14Speaker 2: I just really don't think it's a good idea. The
- 35:16Speaker 2: new version was created after Congress passed the law in
- 35:20Speaker 2: twenty twenty two that ban TikTok from federal devices over
- 35:25Speaker 2: national security concerns. Yeah, those concerns should still be in place,
- 35:29Speaker 2: especially with what's going on in the world right now.
- 35:32Speaker 2: Congress last year also were to TikTok to divest or
- 35:36Speaker 2: sell its operations over the potential threat of Chinese manipulation
- 35:39Speaker 2: to the social media algorithm. The Department of Justice Legal
- 35:44Speaker 2: Council said Thursday in a twelve page opinion addressed by
- 35:48Speaker 2: their Address to the Deputy Council to the President, that
- 35:51Speaker 2: the ban on federal devices is no longer relevant to
- 35:55Speaker 2: the version of TikTok currently available in the US. I
- 36:01Speaker 2: am not buying that. Not buying that for one minute,
- 36:06Speaker 2: and hopefully I guess at this point it's a recommendation.
- 36:12Speaker 2: But I hope some smarter heads prevail and say, no,
- 36:16Speaker 2: we're not going down that road. Keep them off the
- 36:18Speaker 2: government devices. Five to fifty five fifty five KRCV talk Station.

- 37:09Speaker 2: man the year is flying by twenty twenty six is
- 37:12Speaker 2: just blowing right by. Jay has picked up the phone
- 37:16Speaker 2: this morning. Let's find out what Jay has to say.
- 37:18Speaker 2: Good morning, Jay, Good morning.
- 37:22Speaker 9: You know with all the talk about the election fraud
- 37:25Speaker 9: and voter IDs and China making a voter or making
- 37:30Speaker 9: fake IDs. Yeah, you know, I go back to twenty
- 37:33Speaker 9: twenty and I remember all the voices on the media
- 37:38Speaker 9: on all of our politicians being interviewed, and there was
- 37:42Speaker 9: a common theme repeated by Republicans and Democrats alikes, which
- 37:47Speaker 9: was when we all were looking at the data that
- 37:49Speaker 9: Joe Biden won and got more votes than any other
- 37:52Speaker 9: president in history of any other election by quite a margin,
- 37:57Speaker 9: that both Democrats and Republicans were saying, don't worry, there's
- 38:00Speaker 9: not enough fraud to warrant an investigation, which always made.
- 38:06Speaker 5: Me scratch my head and said, well, how did you
- 38:07Speaker 5: how did.
- 38:08Speaker 9: You know that without an investigation, so so an investigation
- 38:12Speaker 9: collecting data, analyzing data, but there's not enough evidence to
- 38:16Speaker 9: warrant an investigation.
- 38:19Speaker 2: There's no widespread fraud, there's and that that was the
- 38:24Speaker 2: common refrain, And and they can they can say that
- 38:28Speaker 2: because you know, the fraud was limited to and it
- 38:33Speaker 2: was you know, big areas like Detroit, in Michigan, Okay,
- 38:38Speaker 2: a huge, huge Democrat voting block right there, that they
- 38:42Speaker 2: could manipulate enough votes in that area to swing that state.
- 38:47Speaker 2: Same thing in in in Pittsburgh, and not Pittsburgh, but
- 38:50Speaker 2: in Pennsylvania and Philadelphia. Big voter fraud going on there,
- 38:55Speaker 2: maybe not spread out through the entire state, the same thing.
- 38:58Speaker 9: How do you how do you determine? But how do
- 39:00Speaker 9: you determined that if you don't do an investigation, I
- 39:03Speaker 9: know you're exactly right. I called Frank Lerose's office, and
- 39:07Speaker 9: to his credit, I've got a phone call like nine
- 39:09Speaker 9: o'clock at night and it was Frank LeRose, and he
- 39:12Speaker 9: told me, hey, we've got the best system, one of
- 39:16Speaker 9: the best systems in the United States. Trump even like
- 39:19Speaker 9: was given kudos to Ohio because we have voter ID
- 39:24Speaker 9: requirements when you go to vote, and so kudos to
- 39:28Speaker 9: him for that. But now we find out six years
- 39:31Speaker 9: later that China's cranking out fake id's. I think that
- 39:35Speaker 9: I think it's time to go back and take a
- 39:37Speaker 9: look at all the Republican voices. I don't expect anything
- 39:41Speaker 9: out of the Democrat communists other than cheating and lying
- 39:44Speaker 9: and what they do. But I would like to go
- 39:47Speaker 9: back and take a look at at the Wine's administration,
- 39:50Speaker 9: Laro's and if Ohio turns out to be one of
- 39:52Speaker 9: the problematic states after six years later and this FBI
- 39:56Speaker 9: knew about it, my hopes would be but they've never happened.
- 40:02Speaker 9: Is that the FBI once and for all be held accountable.
- 40:05Speaker 9: Everybody who has an R beside their name that said,
- 40:08Speaker 9: calm down, sheep, everything's fine, go back to sleep. I
- 40:12Speaker 9: know Joe Biden is your elected president.
- 40:16Speaker 10: How about we go after that?
- 40:18Speaker 9: And haven't we had enough of this FBI my whole life?
- 40:22Speaker 9: And I'm over fifty. Every time the FBI puts their
- 40:27Speaker 9: hand on the scale of justice, which they shouldn't at all,
- 40:30Speaker 9: it's always in support of communism. It's never in support
- 40:33Speaker 9: of freedom. And you know, this organization is supposed to
- 40:36Speaker 9: be about freedom, justice in the American way. And I
- 40:39Speaker 9: always hear Sean Hannity saying ninety nine percent of these
- 40:42Speaker 9: people were good at just the one percent at the top.
- 40:44Speaker 5: Are you sure?
- 40:46Speaker 9: Because where were the whistleblowers? Where were all these federal employees?
- 40:50Speaker 9: Why didn't they come forward back in twenty twenty. They're
- 40:52Speaker 9: supposed to staying in their shell, protecting their nice cushy jobs,
- 40:57Speaker 9: their pension. Where are you, folks, if you're supposed to
- 41:00Speaker 9: be protecting.
- 41:01Speaker 6: A six years later?
- 41:02Speaker 9: And lastly, there's hint that the election has been stolen.
- 41:07Speaker 9: Was it or was it not? Let's get the fag
- 41:10Speaker 9: out of the room and start answering questions about if
- 41:14Speaker 9: there were journalists that were bought and paid for by China,
- 41:17Speaker 9: who were they, where's the data? And was this election
- 41:20Speaker 9: stolen or wasn't it stolen?
- 41:23Speaker 2: Well? That was the and Jay, I appreciate the phone
- 41:26Speaker 2: call this morning, and thank you very much. I mean,
- 41:28Speaker 2: you've put out a lot of stuff out there, but
- 41:31Speaker 2: I think when it comes to investigating this, this is
- 41:34Speaker 2: where we need in honest media, where you have people
- 41:39Speaker 2: who get paid to do such things to take the time,
- 41:43Speaker 2: dive deep into these documents, ask questions, ask serious questions,
- 41:48Speaker 2: bring these things to light, and investigate these things to
- 41:53Speaker 2: it as far out as is that information will take you.
- 41:57Speaker 2: But there's just there's this no appetite for it. There's
- 42:01Speaker 2: no appetite for it on now. Now there are some
- 42:04Speaker 2: politicians who will say that they want to investigate these things,
- 42:10Speaker 2: that they want to get to the bottom of these things,
- 42:13Speaker 2: and Lindsey Graham comes to mind, and God rest his soul.
- 42:18Speaker 2: You know, I don't want to speak ill of the dead,
- 42:21Speaker 2: but Lindsey Graham was, to my way of thinking, notorious
- 42:26Speaker 2: for this during the Biden administration. During the Obama administration,
- 42:33Speaker 2: the guy was on TV all the time talking about
- 42:37Speaker 2: how we're going to get to the bottom of this.
- 42:40Speaker 2: And we found out that Obama was involved in some
- 42:44Speaker 2: unconstitutional activity. Well, my committee is going to have a
- 42:48Speaker 2: hearing on that. We're going to get to the bottom
- 42:50Speaker 2: of it. Well, and those hearings never happened. Now Jim
- 42:54Speaker 2: Jordan very similar and his committee actually has hearings. There
- 43:02Speaker 2: has been all kinds of jaw dropping information come out.
- 43:05Speaker 2: And when you talk about whistleblowers, there have been whistleblowers
- 43:09Speaker 2: from the FBI, from the I r S, from various
- 43:13Speaker 2: government agencies that put all this information. One that I
- 43:18Speaker 2: recall was that really blew my mind was when we
- 43:24Speaker 2: had government informants, people who were involved in that particular
- 43:29Speaker 2: branch of government where they were dealing with the missing children,
- 43:33Speaker 2: and they came out to Congress years ago and said,
- 43:37Speaker 2: you know, the Biden administration has been allowing all these
- 43:41Speaker 2: unaccompanied minors to come into the United States. And once
- 43:46Speaker 2: they got into I'm using my air quotes here the system,
- 43:51Speaker 2: and they were supposed to be going to these homes
- 43:55Speaker 2: of these families that were sponsoring them. They simply he
- 44:00Speaker 2: took these kids to an address, dropped them off, and
- 44:03Speaker 2: said bye, good luck to you, see you later. And
- 44:06Speaker 2: hundreds of thousands of those kids were never seen or
- 44:08Speaker 2: heard from again, and God only knows what happened. You know,
- 44:12Speaker 2: a lot of them got involved in child porn, sex trafficking,
- 44:18Speaker 2: some of the worst things imaginable. Tom Holman and his
- 44:21Speaker 2: crew they've recovered I think the number is around one
- 44:25Speaker 2: hundred and one hundred and forty one hundred and thirty
- 44:28Speaker 2: hundred and forty thousand of them, but there's still a
- 44:31Speaker 2: couple hundred thousand out there that are still missing, and
- 44:34Speaker 2: we really have no idea where they are. Yeah, this
- 44:38Speaker 2: testimony was brought before Congress back when the Biden administration
- 44:43Speaker 2: was still in power, and nothing was done about it.
- 44:46Speaker 2: So Jim Jordan is another one who Okay, fine, you
- 44:50Speaker 2: have these hearings, all this jaw dropping information comes out,
- 44:53Speaker 2: but what gets done about it? Nothing gets done about it.
- 44:57Speaker 2: And I think East. I think Tom is voicing the
- 45:03Speaker 2: frustration that a lot of us have because we want
- 45:08Speaker 2: to see these people brought to justice. If there were
- 45:10Speaker 2: people out there who were fiddling around with the election,
- 45:15Speaker 2: and I think about the video that I saw in
- 45:17Speaker 2: Fulton County, I think about what was going on in Detroit.
- 45:21Speaker 2: Arizona was a complete disaster. There were shenanigans going on
- 45:28Speaker 2: with the Secretary of State and Michigan. All this information
- 45:31Speaker 2: is out there. It needs to be dealt with in
- 45:35Speaker 2: a serious way, but there, for whatever reason, has never
- 45:38Speaker 2: been an appetite to deal with it in a serious way.
- 45:43Speaker 2: And I think the media plays a huge role in that,
- 45:49Speaker 2: the way they disparage anyone who dares and come out
- 45:53Speaker 2: and speak against whatever the current narrative is of the
- 45:58Speaker 2: Democrat National commit You know, those talking points go out
- 46:03Speaker 2: and then that's the only thing you're allowed to say
- 46:05Speaker 2: about an issue. I think we have some who have
- 46:10Speaker 2: the courage to go beyond that. Marco Rubio comes to mind,
- 46:13Speaker 2: Jade Vance comes to mind. But when it comes to
- 46:19Speaker 2: actual action and seeing those who have perpetrated these things
- 46:27Speaker 2: to the detriment of the American people, and whether or
- 46:30Speaker 2: not they cross the line, and they were actual crimes committed.
- 46:33Speaker 2: Well that again that needs to be investigated, and if
- 46:36Speaker 2: they committed crimes, they need to be held accountable. And
- 46:39Speaker 2: the accountability portion of that equation is what has been
- 46:44Speaker 2: lacking for all these years and continues to be lacking today.
- 46:48Speaker 2: You know, it's great that the Trump administration has got people.
- 46:51Speaker 2: You know, memon Ods is out there uncovering all this fraud.
- 46:55Speaker 2: They're cutting off the fraud. But again, every once in
- 46:59Speaker 2: a while, you know, you'll see someone who pleads guilty
- 47:02Speaker 2: gets a little jail time. But the scale on that
- 47:06Speaker 2: is far too small. Six sixteen fifty five KRCV Talk.
- 47:10Speaker 1: Station Our iHeart Radio Music Transport.
- 47:13Speaker 2: The talk station fifty five kr CV Talk Station, Joe,
- 47:26Speaker 2: I guess you heard about all the bad lettuce at
- 47:29Speaker 2: the Taco bell and all that. Do you know whose
- 47:32Speaker 2: fault that is? It's it is Trump's fault. It is
- 47:41Speaker 2: Trump's fault. We have the voluntary recall for the iceberg
- 47:45Speaker 2: lettuce distributed to twenty seven states. The I guess there
- 47:51Speaker 2: is a a parasite link to explosive diarrhea. It came
- 47:58Speaker 2: from a vegetable pier in central Mexico and of course,
- 48:03Speaker 2: the Democrats are blaming Donald Trump for this. Lettuce is
- 48:07Speaker 2: being recalled by Taylor Farms in California also hatched number
- 48:12Speaker 2: of lawsuits in federal court against Taco Bell, which allegedly
- 48:16Speaker 2: used the shredded lettuce contaminated with the parasite called cyclospora.
- 48:24Speaker 2: Of course, like any negative condition that makes headlines and
- 48:28Speaker 2: impacts Americans, the problem was caused by Donald Trump. According
- 48:34Speaker 2: to a Democrat lawmaker who was running for Congress. Patty
- 48:38Speaker 2: Murray of Washington and She's a real peach posted a
- 48:44Speaker 2: video on social media claiming the worst outbreak in US
- 48:47Speaker 2: history was caused by the President taking a wrecking ball
- 48:52Speaker 2: to our public health infrastructure. Does anyone think that President
- 48:56Speaker 2: Trump has taken a wrecking ball to our public health infrastructure?
- 49:01Speaker 2: I don't think so. I think Kennedy's doing a great job.
- 49:06Speaker 2: Was there a lot of unnecessary waste? Was there a
- 49:12Speaker 2: lot of unnecessary duplication of services? Were there you know
- 49:19Speaker 2: a lot of people working in those government offices that
- 49:23Speaker 2: we probably didn't need. Yeah? Probably. Did we try to
- 49:27Speaker 2: write size the applicant and the not the application, But
- 49:32Speaker 2: do we try to write size those those offices and
- 49:40Speaker 2: get the right amount of people working in there, I
- 49:42Speaker 2: think so so yeah. I mean, these kind of things
- 49:47Speaker 2: can crop up at any time, and from time to
- 49:52Speaker 2: time they do. Doesn't mean the administrations that fault. But
- 49:55Speaker 2: of course the Democrats find a way. If I went
- 49:58Speaker 2: back and researched every everything that was wrong, everything that
- 50:03Speaker 2: Democrats blamed Trump for, it'd be just about everything, anything
- 50:07Speaker 2: and everything under the sun. The House GOP lawmakers that
- 50:12Speaker 2: are going to have to rush if they want to
- 50:14Speaker 2: get key parts of the legislative agenda passed before the
- 50:19Speaker 2: August recess. Republicans are moving to pass a third reconciliation bill,
- 50:25Speaker 2: a stock trading ban, a continuing resolution, a continuing another
- 50:32Speaker 2: continuing resolution. I guess they got to fund the government
- 50:38Speaker 2: with another continuing resolution. It is so disappointing that this
- 50:49Speaker 2: is where we are. These things should be. We have
- 50:56Speaker 2: so many pieces of legislation and I'm just I'm thinking
- 51:00Speaker 2: about the Stay of America Act. That thing should have
- 51:05Speaker 2: been passed a long time ago and passed easily. But no,
- 51:11Speaker 2: and it really is gumming up the works for a
- 51:13Speaker 2: lot of other stuff. If we're passing and look, I
- 51:19Speaker 2: see the video of these members in Congress and Committee
- 51:23Speaker 2: and on the floor of Congress and stuff all the time.
- 51:27Speaker 2: Why haven't they done the work to pass another you know,
- 51:31Speaker 2: get a budget deal done, but another continuing resolution. We
- 51:36Speaker 2: got defense appropriation bills and more from before. They've got
- 51:41Speaker 2: a four week long recess coming up. Mike Johnson expressed
- 51:45Speaker 2: optimism that the ninety five billion dollar reconciliation package can
- 51:49Speaker 2: pass before the recess. Really, and then you got John
- 51:54Speaker 2: Dune in the Senate who responded to that with skepticism. Yeah,
- 51:59Speaker 2: both is going to get it done before the August recess.
- 52:03Speaker 2: What is today the twentieth Joey, You holding out any
- 52:06Speaker 2: hope at all in the next ten days they'll get
- 52:08Speaker 2: any of this stuff done. Yeah, it's got it. Just yeah,
- 52:15Speaker 2: it is not going to happen. So Washington continues to
- 52:20Speaker 2: be an absolute mess. And and we're going to have
- 52:24Speaker 2: two years of the Trump administration down the drain before
- 52:28Speaker 2: we know it. Six twenty six, fifty five KRC, the
- 52:32Speaker 2: talk station. You heard everything, the talk station fifty five KRC,
- 52:48Speaker 2: the Talk station six point thirty on this Monday morning,
- 52:51Speaker 2: Congratulations to Vice President j. D. Vance announced Sunday that
- 52:55Speaker 2: second Lady Usha Vance has given birth to the couple's
- 52:58Speaker 2: fourth child. The Van's family announced Usha's pregnancy in January
- 53:04Speaker 2: of this year, and her due date would be in July.
- 53:07Speaker 2: Usha Vance is the first second lady to have a
- 53:11Speaker 2: child while the vice president is in office. How about that? Well,
- 53:17Speaker 2: not the first, but the first since sure youre coal Fax,
- 53:23Speaker 2: who served during Ulysses S. Grant's first presidential term. I
- 53:28Speaker 2: had a son in eighteen seventy, so it's been a
- 53:31Speaker 2: while since the second lady has had a child in office.
- 53:36Speaker 2: So congratulations to her. Excited to announce that our baby boy,
- 53:39Speaker 2: Alec Neil Vance, was born this morning, the second family
- 53:44Speaker 2: said in a statement posted Sunday to ex Usha and
- 53:48Speaker 2: the baby are happy, healthy, and the kids are overjoyed
- 53:51Speaker 2: to meet their new little brother. Military doctors and staff
- 53:57Speaker 2: at Walter Reid and the White House Medical Unit have
- 54:01Speaker 2: been a blessing. The statement continues. We're deeply thankful they
- 54:04Speaker 2: have done this for our family. So there you go. JD.
- 54:08Speaker 2: Vance a father again, and baby number four is here.
- 54:14Speaker 2: One of the one of the stories that bothers me,
- 54:20Speaker 2: probably more than anything else, are the stories about truck
- 54:29Speaker 2: drivers who have no business in this country, illegal alien
- 54:33Speaker 2: truck drivers who obtain CDLs, go out and drive and
- 54:42Speaker 2: then they wreck their vehicles and they and they calls
- 54:45Speaker 2: murder and mayhem out there on the roads. And if
- 54:49Speaker 2: you've seen some of the videos of this, we I
- 54:51Speaker 2: think a lot of people have seen the famous one
- 54:56Speaker 2: of the dude in Florida who was making a U
- 55:01Speaker 2: turn where he shouldn't have been and got the truck
- 55:06Speaker 2: going across the highway and there was a family in
- 55:12Speaker 2: a minivan that smashed into the truck and the people
- 55:17Speaker 2: in a minivan were killed. And so this dude couldn't
- 55:21Speaker 2: even speak English, but yet he's out there driving a truck.
- 55:25Speaker 2: I thank god Sean Duffy, the Transportation Secretary, has taken
- 55:29Speaker 2: steps to crack down on this. But as I was
- 55:32Speaker 2: getting ready for the show today, I saw this. An
- 55:36Speaker 2: illegal immigrant truck driver was sentenced to four years and
- 55:42Speaker 2: eight months, So that's less than five years four years
- 55:44Speaker 2: and eight months in prison that calls for causing a
- 55:49Speaker 2: car accident that led to three dead in Ontario, California.
- 55:54Speaker 2: The driver is an Indian national named jasperit Sing, was
- 56:01Speaker 2: arrested following the eight car collision. This happened in October
- 56:06Speaker 2: of twenty twenty five. The California Highay Patrol said traffic
- 56:15Speaker 2: had slowed before the crash, but sing maintained his speed
- 56:19Speaker 2: and plowed into multiple vehicles. And the dash cam video
- 56:24Speaker 2: of this incident is out there as well and has
- 56:28Speaker 2: been for a while. It is absolutely horrific when you
- 56:34Speaker 2: see the cars that are lined up there and this
- 56:36Speaker 2: dude is just driving full speed, never tries to stop
- 56:39Speaker 2: and plows right into the back of these cars, killing
- 56:41Speaker 2: three people. It didn't stop, it didn't swerve, didn't make
- 56:45Speaker 2: any kind of maneuvers, just went straight in. A witness
- 56:49Speaker 2: told NBC News the truck rolled and veered to the
- 56:51Speaker 2: right into an embankment. I saw the truck driver jump
- 56:55Speaker 2: out because the truck was on fire. Days after the crash,
- 57:01Speaker 2: San Bernardino County DA Jason Anderson said the hoctacology reports
- 57:06Speaker 2: confirmed that Singh had not been under the influence of
- 57:09Speaker 2: alcohol or drugs, but the case remained a gross sleep
- 57:13Speaker 2: and negligent homicide. This is a heinous tragedy that took
- 57:18Speaker 2: three lives and seriously injured others. It was easily avoidable
- 57:25Speaker 2: if the defendant was not driving in a gross sleep
- 57:28Speaker 2: and negligent manner, Anderson said, he had the rule of
- 57:33Speaker 2: law been followed by the state and federal officials. The
- 57:36Speaker 2: defendant should never have been in California at all. And
- 57:41Speaker 2: this dude, Singh was charged with three counts of vehicular
- 57:44Speaker 2: manslaughter and gross negligence. Us ICE announced in October that
- 57:52Speaker 2: it placed a detainer on sing and allowed the agency,
- 57:55Speaker 2: allowing the agency to deport the Indian national upon his release.
- 58:02Speaker 2: It's terrible tragedy. These three inocent people lost their lives
- 58:05Speaker 2: due to the reckless operation and border policies that allow
- 58:09Speaker 2: illegal aliens to be released in the United States and
- 58:12Speaker 2: drive an eighteen wheeler. And California has been doing it,
- 58:17Speaker 2: New York has been doing it, some other states have
- 58:20Speaker 2: been doing it. Illegal aliens getting CDLs, And I could
- 58:26Speaker 2: go into the whole thing about the fake companies and
- 58:30Speaker 2: the Biden administration allowed these companies to self certify. Many
- 58:34Speaker 2: of these companies owned by illegal aliens or for some reason,
- 58:41Speaker 2: there's a lot of you Beekistan immigrants that are here
- 58:45Speaker 2: in the United States and right here in Ohio that
- 58:50Speaker 2: have these trucking companies that allowed them to do these
- 58:52Speaker 2: CDL classes. And that was another huge thing, a fraud
- 58:55Speaker 2: because they were getting money from the federal government to
- 58:58Speaker 2: have these CDL classes sign up. All the more people
- 59:03Speaker 2: they signed up, the more money they got. Well, of
- 59:05Speaker 2: course the names were faked. There were some real ones
- 59:07Speaker 2: in there who never took a class but simply got
- 59:10Speaker 2: to CDL and boom. You're out there on the street
- 59:14Speaker 2: and you're driving, you know of one hundred thousand pound
- 59:17Speaker 2: vehicle or however much of those things weigh an eighteen
- 59:21Speaker 2: wheel or a big rick fifty three foot trailer, no
- 59:25Speaker 2: training whatsoever, can't speak English, don't know how to read
- 59:28Speaker 2: road signs, crashing in and killing people, and this dude
- 59:33Speaker 2: does it. And again you can find the video online.
- 59:39Speaker 2: This piece is in the Daily Caller. You can go
- 59:43Speaker 2: there and find you can see the video for yourself.
- 59:45Speaker 2: How horrific this wreck was. And this dude gets sentenced
- 59:49Speaker 2: to less than five years, less than five years out
- 59:54Speaker 2: in California. And we talked earlier about the notion of
- 59:59Speaker 2: these people who commit these crimes and do these things
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: not being held accountable. Three people dead, less than five
- 1:00:08Speaker 2: years in prison, And if he's sentenced to four years
- 1:00:10Speaker 2: and eight months, he'll likely be out in what Joe
- 1:00:13Speaker 2: a couple of years, two and a half years something
- 1:00:16Speaker 2: like that. Yeah, and hopefully his ass while get sent
- 1:00:20Speaker 2: back to where he came from. Six thirty eight fifty
- 1:00:23Speaker 2: five KRC the talk station. Not every chimney system is
- 1:00:26Speaker 2: the same at the chimney shop. Fifty five KRC the
- 1:00:35Speaker 2: talk stations seven four nine, five one three, seven four nine,
- 1:00:38Speaker 2: fifty five hundred. We'll see what Corey wants to talk
- 1:00:41Speaker 2: about this morning. Then we got Todd Corey, You're on
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: fifty five KRC.
- 1:00:47Speaker 5: Hey, good morning, Carol.
- 1:00:48Speaker 2: Yeah, Corey, speaking of the.
- 1:00:51Speaker 5: Speaking of the illegal truck drivers. Yeah, there's currently a
- 1:00:54Speaker 5: bill in Congress wanting to increase the weight of the
- 1:00:58Speaker 5: trucks from the eighty thousand to I believe one hundred.
- 1:01:01Speaker 2: Thousand pounds increase the weight.
- 1:01:06Speaker 11: Correct.
- 1:01:07Speaker 5: Currently a bill that is favored to pass the House.
- 1:01:10Speaker 5: I think would be a huge mistake. We already have
- 1:01:14Speaker 5: enough these illegal drivers.
- 1:01:15Speaker 10: I live.
- 1:01:16Speaker 5: I'm listening on the app right now. I live up
- 1:01:17Speaker 5: by line. Ohile, a few months ago there wasn't illegal
- 1:01:21Speaker 5: who ran into slow traffic killing a father and his
- 1:01:24Speaker 5: eleven year old son. Stuff happens more and people realize
- 1:01:29Speaker 5: you gotta get these illegal truck drivers off the road.
- 1:01:33Speaker 5: By the line, of work. I deal with a lot
- 1:01:34Speaker 5: of truck drivers all the time delivering stuff, and I'd
- 1:01:37Speaker 5: say nine out of ten of them are all foreigners
- 1:01:40Speaker 5: that deliver anything anymore. You drive down the road, look
- 1:01:44Speaker 5: at the driver.
- 1:01:45Speaker 10: You can see.
- 1:01:45Speaker 5: It's the truck and industry has it's been a disaster.
- 1:01:51Speaker 5: And it all started with the Obottom administration and allowing
- 1:01:54Speaker 5: illegals basically to get CDLs in this country with no
- 1:01:58Speaker 5: verification at all.
- 1:02:01Speaker 2: You know, Corey, I mean, this is an issue that
- 1:02:03Speaker 2: bothers me so much. I have friends who were in
- 1:02:06Speaker 2: the trucking business. Back in my early radio days. I
- 1:02:11Speaker 2: did the overnight news with the Truck and Bozo when
- 1:02:14Speaker 2: the Truck and Bozo had, you know, his show on
- 1:02:18Speaker 2: seven hundred and it was essentially a nationwide show, but
- 1:02:22Speaker 2: it was it was geared. It was he started a
- 1:02:25Speaker 2: the atn America's Trucking Network, and so I used to
- 1:02:29Speaker 2: listen to the callers that he had on his show,
- 1:02:32Speaker 2: and I knew the issues that these truckers were dealing
- 1:02:34Speaker 2: with back then, and by and large, responsible truck drivers,
- 1:02:41Speaker 2: all they were asking for was to be treated with respect,
- 1:02:46Speaker 2: to be treated with some dignity, be treated as the
- 1:02:49Speaker 2: true professionals that they were, and you had all these
- 1:02:52Speaker 2: lawmakers in Washington who were doing things like the split
- 1:02:57Speaker 2: speed limits, putting all these crazy regulars. I mean, the
- 1:03:01Speaker 2: service hours that they have now are still pretty wild
- 1:03:04Speaker 2: and out of control. And then you know, you started
- 1:03:07Speaker 2: with the electronic the logging devices and all the rest
- 1:03:10Speaker 2: of it. And so the notion that the Obama administration
- 1:03:17Speaker 2: or these other administrations would simply say, you know what,
- 1:03:21Speaker 2: We've got all these illegals in the country. They need
- 1:03:23Speaker 2: to work. Have them drive a truck, have them drive
- 1:03:26Speaker 2: a big rig and act as if it's no big
- 1:03:30Speaker 2: deal to get behind the wheel of a semi tractor
- 1:03:36Speaker 2: trailer and drive that thing down the highway at sixty
- 1:03:39Speaker 2: seventy eighty miles an hour and have no regard whatsoever
- 1:03:44Speaker 2: for the innocent lives that you that were being put
- 1:03:47Speaker 2: at risk. And I could do entire shows just recounting
- 1:03:54Speaker 2: the stories of people who lost their lives needlessly because
- 1:04:00Speaker 2: we have these types of drivers out there on the road.
- 1:04:03Speaker 2: And thank god, we have a guy like Sean Duffy
- 1:04:06Speaker 2: who has looked at this h and is taking serious,
- 1:04:11Speaker 2: meaningful steps to try and make sure it doesn't happen again.
- 1:04:15Speaker 2: But yet states like New York and California are opposing
- 1:04:19Speaker 2: him every step of the way and want to continue
- 1:04:24Speaker 2: the practice of giving CDLs to illegal aliens and people
- 1:04:30Speaker 2: who are otherwise completely completely unqualified to be behind the
- 1:04:36Speaker 2: wheel of a big brick. Todd will get to your
- 1:04:38Speaker 2: call in a moment six forty six fifty five krs,
- 1:04:52Speaker 2: fifty five krs de talk station. Oh and I was
- 1:04:55Speaker 2: just going to get to Todd. But what happened to Toddy?
- 1:04:58Speaker 2: Hung up? Does to talk to Todd? But that's all right,
- 1:05:03Speaker 2: that's all right. Five if you want to get on board.
- 1:05:09Speaker 2: What time is it? Six fifty? What do I have
- 1:05:11Speaker 2: time for here? How about.
- 1:05:16Speaker 10: This?
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: If we talk so much about the media and the
- 1:05:22Speaker 2: disservice that that they do to the American people. This
- 1:05:28Speaker 2: is a little a little bit from our friends over
- 1:05:32Speaker 2: at ms now and over at ms now, they were
- 1:05:35Speaker 2: having a discussion about Trump's policy as it relates to
- 1:05:40Speaker 2: illegals in this country. And I was watching this, and
- 1:05:44Speaker 2: you wonder why so many of our friends on the
- 1:05:47Speaker 2: left are absolutely outraged about everything now. It's because they
- 1:05:54Speaker 2: are fed constantly lie after lie after lie, and they
- 1:06:02Speaker 2: see this on CNN or ms NOW or you know,
- 1:06:05Speaker 2: one of these other outlets and they wind up believing it.
- 1:06:09Speaker 2: So this past Friday, on a show with Katie Turr,
- 1:06:14Speaker 2: you had Alex Wagner, who I don't know. Alex Wagner
- 1:06:18Speaker 2: keeps popping up on MSNBC. I know she had her
- 1:06:21Speaker 2: own show for a while, but just went so far
- 1:06:23Speaker 2: afield they had to let her go. But now she's
- 1:06:26Speaker 2: back all the time doing guest spots and I see
- 1:06:28Speaker 2: her occasionally hosting shows and stuff like that. So I
- 1:06:31Speaker 2: don't know if she works for them or she's a contributor,
- 1:06:34Speaker 2: or what her deal is. But she was talking about
- 1:06:38Speaker 2: the Trump administration and their policy, the Trump administration policy
- 1:06:43Speaker 2: as it relates to illegals in this country. And listen
- 1:06:46Speaker 2: to the commentary that listeners and viewers of MS NOW
- 1:06:54Speaker 2: are treated to. And Joe, if we could please let's
- 1:06:56Speaker 2: hear cut number three.
- 1:06:57Speaker 12: The rule of not law is not the goal here, Katie.
- 1:07:00Speaker 12: Making life terrifying and making communities fearful enough that they
- 1:07:05Speaker 12: either shut themselves off or go back home is the
- 1:07:09Speaker 12: point here. I mean, that's why they don't want to
- 1:07:10Speaker 12: make ice detentions more sane or more targeted. Or more safe.
- 1:07:16Speaker 12: Instilling fear and the threat of violence is the essence
- 1:07:20Speaker 12: of the policy of this administration. So we should not
- 1:07:23Speaker 12: hold out any hope that they're going to try and
- 1:07:25Speaker 12: fix the system. I mean, all of this which we
- 1:07:28Speaker 12: see as collateral damage, is in fact the focus. Recruit
- 1:07:31Speaker 12: as many people as you can, who cares what their
- 1:07:33Speaker 12: backgrounds are, just use them as effectively. Like our guest
- 1:07:37Speaker 12: earlier in this hour, Stuart Stevens says, as part of
- 1:07:40Speaker 12: a roving death squad to make life hell for black
- 1:07:43Speaker 12: and brown people in this country.
- 1:07:44Speaker 13: That is the point.
- 1:07:45Speaker 12: That is the immigration policy of the Trump administration.
- 1:07:48Speaker 2: So there's the commentary from Alex Wagner talking about the
- 1:07:54Speaker 2: immigration policy of the Trump administration. Do did you catch
- 1:07:57Speaker 2: that she said, having Rome death squads terrorizing brown and
- 1:08:03Speaker 2: black people, that is the policy of the Trump administration.
- 1:08:07Speaker 2: Can she give a single example, a single example of
- 1:08:12Speaker 2: where anywhere this is written down, this has talked about,
- 1:08:17Speaker 2: this has talked about, this happens in actual practice. Is
- 1:08:22Speaker 2: she able to cite just one example where they have
- 1:08:30Speaker 2: these quote, roaming death squads to terrorize people in the
- 1:08:35Speaker 2: brown and black community. And I don't know if this
- 1:08:40Speaker 2: is her own imagination or somehow she's reciting talking points
- 1:08:46Speaker 2: from the DNC. But I've heard other newscasters use this
- 1:08:52Speaker 2: phrase that the Trump administration is enacting whatever policy in
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: order to terrorize in grinned families. I actually heard those
- 1:09:02Speaker 2: words being used on a local newscast just a day
- 1:09:08Speaker 2: or so ago, and it's infuriating because I know that
- 1:09:13Speaker 2: it is coming from and again it was on a
- 1:09:16Speaker 2: local newscast, so I know it was coming either from
- 1:09:18Speaker 2: the AP or coming from CNN or from ABC. But
- 1:09:23Speaker 2: this is this is Wagner, Alex Wagner, and she goes
- 1:09:27Speaker 2: on and says the Trump policy is roving desk squads
- 1:09:32Speaker 2: in order to target minorities. Is there anyone listening to
- 1:09:37Speaker 2: me right now that thinks that the Trump administration wants
- 1:09:40Speaker 2: to have roving deak squads out and around anywhere in
- 1:09:47Speaker 2: the United States? Six fifty five KRC de talk station
- 1:09:53Speaker 2: celebrating at fifty five KRC the talk station, Van Hamlin

- 1:10:36Speaker 2: A two five five T a l K A two
- 1:10:39Speaker 2: five five if you want to get on board. Chris
- 1:10:42Speaker 2: smithermen coming up in the Smither event at about seven
- 1:10:47Speaker 2: to twenty this morning, so I hope you can stick
- 1:10:49Speaker 2: around for that. Absolutely one of the craziest things I
- 1:10:51Speaker 2: saw over the weekend written by Chris Bray in UH
- 1:10:59Speaker 2: in The Federalist, and the title is California is much
- 1:11:04Speaker 2: crazier than you thought. Throwing away an old pair of
- 1:11:08Speaker 2: socks is a matter of the greatest imaginable complexity. It
- 1:11:14Speaker 2: requires an extensive state plan, supervised by non governmental organizations
- 1:11:20Speaker 2: that impose mandatory payment obligations on the company that made
- 1:11:24Speaker 2: the socks. The socks have to be safely discarded, and
- 1:11:29Speaker 2: that requires extensive planning by public private partnership. What in
- 1:11:34Speaker 2: the world is he talking about while he's talking about
- 1:11:39Speaker 2: the passage of SB seven oh seven, the Responsible Textile
- 1:11:44Speaker 2: Recovery Act of twenty twenty four. It was passed this year.
- 1:11:50Speaker 2: Every significant manufacturer of textile products that sells its products
- 1:11:55Speaker 2: in California, even if the manufacturer doesn't make anything there, has,
- 1:12:01Speaker 2: in theory, been forced to join a producer responsibility organization
- 1:12:07Speaker 2: that will develop a textile recycling program. Penalties for intentional
- 1:12:14Speaker 2: non compliance will run fifty thousand dollars per day if
- 1:12:21Speaker 2: the violation is intentional or knowing, and a misstatement to
- 1:12:27Speaker 2: state regulators regarding textile recycling will be regarded as purgery,
- 1:12:32Speaker 2: a perjury, a felony. Read the bill. Its intent is
- 1:12:36Speaker 2: to minimize the environmental justice impacts of your discarded socks.
- 1:12:44Speaker 2: The Responsible Textile Recovery Act of twenty twenty four was
- 1:12:48Speaker 2: authorized by former state Senator Josh Newman. A whole compliance
- 1:12:55Speaker 2: industry is springing up around the new law, starting with
- 1:12:58Speaker 2: the requirement that every company that sells textiles in California
- 1:13:06Speaker 2: join the pro by July first of this year. Producers
- 1:13:12Speaker 2: with every global turnover of less than one million are
- 1:13:15Speaker 2: exempt from compliance. In a complex chain of legal compliance partnerships,
- 1:13:21Speaker 2: the pro may also fall upon wholesalers, retailers, distributors, and importers.
- 1:13:31Speaker 2: If you pay attention to California politics, you already know
- 1:13:33Speaker 2: that an NGO was going to be involved. The state
- 1:13:37Speaker 2: has chosen a single NGO called land Bell USA. They
- 1:13:44Speaker 2: are the statewide designated pro which again means producer Responsibility Organization.
- 1:13:55Speaker 2: And I must say this is the first time I've
- 1:13:57Speaker 2: heard of a producer responsibility organization that required that you
- 1:14:03Speaker 2: are as a business person or a business owner. You
- 1:14:07Speaker 2: are required under California law to join this organization. The
- 1:14:17Speaker 2: final cost of compliance is still up in the air,
- 1:14:19Speaker 2: but you can read the compliance roadmap for the twenty
- 1:14:22Speaker 2: twenty six twenty twenty seven cycle. Registration requires an annual
- 1:14:27Speaker 2: flat fee of one thousand dollars the fund support and
- 1:14:31Speaker 2: the development of the producer portal and the statewide needs assessment.
- 1:14:37Speaker 2: In the future, fees will shift to an ecomodulated model
- 1:14:43Speaker 2: where products designed for durability and recycling will receive reduced rates.
- 1:14:49Speaker 2: So what they're saying here is you join the organization
- 1:14:54Speaker 2: under penalty of fifty thousand dollars per day, and if
- 1:14:59Speaker 2: you comply with what this non governmental organization demands, well
- 1:15:06Speaker 2: then they'll cut you a little break on your on
- 1:15:09Speaker 2: your membership fee. The state's textile recovery program is being
- 1:15:14Speaker 2: administered by the two billion dollars a year Department of Resources,
- 1:15:19Speaker 2: Recycling and Recovery, which is still writing regulations. You can
- 1:15:24Speaker 2: read the They've got a link to where you can
- 1:15:27Speaker 2: read the textile page. And I mean, and I clicked
- 1:15:30Speaker 2: on that link when I was when I was getting
- 1:15:35Speaker 2: ready for the show, and the regulations, the mumbo jumbo,
- 1:15:40Speaker 2: the minutia in there just goes on, page after page
- 1:15:43Speaker 2: after page. Let me see the law. Firms with textile
- 1:15:51Speaker 2: clients are posting compliance schedules. You can see the timeline
- 1:15:55Speaker 2: for implementation. Final implementation of a statewide stewardship plan is
- 1:15:59Speaker 2: expected by July first of twenty thirty. So they don't
- 1:16:06Speaker 2: even they don't even have this plan completely in paced place,
- 1:16:11Speaker 2: but they're demanding membership and payment of that membership. And
- 1:16:15Speaker 2: do you think the fines for not joining this are
- 1:16:18Speaker 2: going to wait until twenty thirty? Here's what the law
- 1:16:23Speaker 2: would mean in practice in Texas, the unusually awesome Buffalo
- 1:16:26Speaker 2: Wool Company, which makes textile products sort from American planes Bison,
- 1:16:33Speaker 2: has turned off it's California shipping operations. Ron Miskin, who
- 1:16:37Speaker 2: runs the family owned business, told the Federalist he has
- 1:16:39Speaker 2: no objection to textile recycling, and he sees the point
- 1:16:43Speaker 2: of trying to keep a flood of cheap synthetic material
- 1:16:48Speaker 2: out of the waste stream, but he's also trying to
- 1:16:50Speaker 2: make sustainable products that don't get used up and thrown away.
- 1:16:55Speaker 2: And the costs and complexity of compliance with California's new
- 1:16:58Speaker 2: textile law are bridge to far. So so here's the
- 1:17:03Speaker 2: guy who is shutting down his operations in California because
- 1:17:07Speaker 2: he doesn't want to comply, doesn't want to pay the money,
- 1:17:11Speaker 2: doesn't want to subject his company to a fifty thousand
- 1:17:16Speaker 2: dollars a day penalty, because he doesn't see fit to
- 1:17:20Speaker 2: join this organization. So he has no choice but to
- 1:17:22Speaker 2: shut down his opera. You know, I mean California is
- 1:17:26Speaker 2: a huge market, a lot of rich people there by
- 1:17:31Speaker 2: his products, but no can't have it. Does this sound
- 1:17:36Speaker 2: like tyranny? Does this sound like socialism? Controlling the means
- 1:17:43Speaker 2: of production when you had to pay a non governmental
- 1:17:47Speaker 2: organization handpicked by the governor or I guess his designees,
- 1:17:53Speaker 2: And it seems there's a lot of that going on
- 1:17:55Speaker 2: in California. And his wife as ben fitted mightily from
- 1:18:02Speaker 2: the whole NGO scam and scheme and structure. This is
- 1:18:09Speaker 2: the kind of stuff that they want to bring to America.
- 1:18:13Speaker 2: And of course they you know, the left will point
- 1:18:15Speaker 2: to California as a great land of democracy, great land
- 1:18:20Speaker 2: of a freedom. But no, this is where the tyranny
- 1:18:26Speaker 2: really lives. This is where socialism is running wild. And
- 1:18:33Speaker 2: you can expect to see more stuff like this, especially
- 1:18:36Speaker 2: in the Blue States, if the government can find another
- 1:18:41Speaker 2: revenue stream off of this, which it looks like that,
- 1:18:43Speaker 2: of course is the is the bottom line. Hey Dick,
- 1:18:46Speaker 2: we got about a minute here. What's going on?
- 1:18:49Speaker 11: Hey? Dan, you mentioned something about listening to the Trucker
- 1:18:54Speaker 11: Network early on.
- 1:18:55Speaker 2: Yeah, America's truck and Network. Yeah.
- 1:18:58Speaker 11: And I remember when I'm first got introduced to truck
- 1:19:02Speaker 11: talk radio. I got the impression because it was back
- 1:19:06Speaker 11: in the sixties and seventies that truckers were kind of
- 1:19:10Speaker 11: an independent conservative bunch. They just liked seeing the world
- 1:19:13Speaker 11: and driving their trucks. And so if you wanted to
- 1:19:19Speaker 11: drive a wedge into that group, how do you do it?
- 1:19:24Speaker 11: You open the gates to displace them so that they
- 1:19:27Speaker 11: cannot make a living anymore.
- 1:19:32Speaker 2: Well, and and I think I see your point there,
- 1:19:35Speaker 2: But it was with I mean, with all the rules
- 1:19:38Speaker 2: and regulations, and you know, the truck industry used to
- 1:19:41Speaker 2: not to be all that heavily regulated.
- 1:19:43Speaker 7: And exactly so independent minded people and cover them up
- 1:19:49Speaker 7: with regulation they get out of that business.
- 1:19:58Speaker 2: Well that makes sense, Yeah, Dick, I appreciate, I appreciate listening.
- 1:20:02Speaker 2: I appreciate the phone call today, but we got a run.
- 1:20:04Speaker 2: We got Chris Smithman standing by for the smith event
- 1:20:07Speaker 2: and we don't want to delay that. But Dick, I
- 1:20:09Speaker 2: appreciate you picking up the phone this morning, seven sixteen
- 1:20:12Speaker 2: at fifty five KRC. The talk stays what's your past?
- 1:20:16Speaker 2: Two million, fifty five KRC DE talk station Dan Carolyn
- 1:20:32Speaker 2: for Brian Thomas. And always great to be here on
- 1:20:34Speaker 2: Mondays because this is appointment appointment radio whenever Chris Smithman
- 1:20:39Speaker 2: comes to visit, and every Monday at this time he does,
- 1:20:42Speaker 2: and it is the Smither event. And Chris Smithman, I
- 1:20:44Speaker 2: hope you had a great weekend. Good to be with
- 1:20:46Speaker 2: you this morning.
- 1:20:48Speaker 10: Good to be with you too, brother. I think the
- 1:20:50Speaker 10: conversation starting out of the gate man is flooding. And
- 1:20:55Speaker 10: you know, we got a heavy rain and a lot
- 1:20:59Speaker 10: of our communities right got hit with standing water, call
- 1:21:05Speaker 10: them call them small lakes. And the connection, brother, is
- 1:21:11Speaker 10: this big discussion, you know that the mayor had and
- 1:21:14Speaker 10: the city council had, you know.
- 1:21:16Speaker 6: Sell our railroad.
- 1:21:18Speaker 10: We're gonna get one point six billion. It's going to
- 1:21:21Speaker 10: solve all of our infrastructure issues. They sent list out
- 1:21:24Speaker 10: to all the fifty two neighborhoods. List, Dan Carroll, they said,
- 1:21:28Speaker 10: lift out to all the neighborhoods, right, pleasant Ridge, pype Art,
- 1:21:32Speaker 10: you know, North Avondale. You know, we've owned this thing
- 1:21:36Speaker 10: for over two hundred years. You know it's we own
- 1:21:40Speaker 10: land three hundred, three hundred miles, Dan Carroll, from Cincinnati
- 1:21:44Speaker 10: to Tennessee. We owned the air rights. Amazon you know,
- 1:21:48Speaker 10: wanted to put their drones up. Everybody would be paying
- 1:21:51Speaker 10: us money, and we were getting over thirty million dollars,
- 1:21:55Speaker 10: and we were in negotiations for a new contract which
- 1:21:58Speaker 10: would have put us over forty mills million dollars a
- 1:22:00Speaker 10: year coming in that each city council would have had
- 1:22:04Speaker 10: the self direction on how that money is spent.
- 1:22:06Speaker 11: Dan Carroll.
- 1:22:07Speaker 10: Now we got to talk to a board, right that
- 1:22:09Speaker 10: might need at the Queen City Country Club down there.
- 1:22:14Speaker 10: No one knows who's on the board. No one knows
- 1:22:17Speaker 10: are we even getting the money?
- 1:22:18Speaker 6: Right?
- 1:22:19Speaker 10: This is the insanity, and then we get a heavy rain.
- 1:22:22Speaker 10: By the way, let me share with everybody. I know
- 1:22:25Speaker 10: our sewer systems are in trouble. I get it right.
- 1:22:28Speaker 10: I know they're under stress. But we can be doing
- 1:22:31Speaker 10: something about it. That's the problem. And in the mayor
- 1:22:34Speaker 10: three days later comes out with some lame statement about
- 1:22:38Speaker 10: what's happening with a possible flood gate that failed. The
- 1:22:42Speaker 10: reality of it is that if all of the things
- 1:22:45Speaker 10: that he said he was going to do with the
- 1:22:47Speaker 10: one point six billion dollars, we get a heavy rain
- 1:22:51Speaker 10: and somebody dies in Hyde Park. That's the reality.
- 1:22:54Speaker 2: Of where we are.
- 1:22:55Speaker 10: You know, when you have standing water anybody listening, very
- 1:22:59Speaker 10: dangerous isdral praining. Anybody could die, very serious loss of
- 1:23:04Speaker 10: property meaning flood flood. The flood water is going into
- 1:23:08Speaker 10: people's basements, Dan Carroll or cars, which are facts. We're underwater, underwater, dude.
- 1:23:16Speaker 10: So I'm sitting back watching this city council. It is
- 1:23:19Speaker 10: clear that they do not know what they're doing and
- 1:23:21Speaker 10: that they overpromised to us. And I thought the one
- 1:23:24Speaker 10: point six billion was a low number, right. I thought
- 1:23:27Speaker 10: we should have been in the four or five billion dollars.
- 1:23:30Speaker 10: If we were going to sell the three hundred miles
- 1:23:32Speaker 10: of railroad all the way down to Tennessee. But we
- 1:23:35Speaker 10: got screwed. And now we're seeing Dan Carroll what it
- 1:23:39Speaker 10: looks like when we get a heavy rain in Cincinnati
- 1:23:43Speaker 10: and now our sewer systems can't handle it. So we've
- 1:23:45Speaker 10: got potholes, We've got roads that are trumbling. Now we
- 1:23:49Speaker 10: have a sewer system that can't handle rain. God sent
- 1:23:53Speaker 10: us rain, and the mayor and city council couldn't handle
- 1:23:57Speaker 10: it well.
- 1:23:57Speaker 2: Chris Millman, our friend Adam Kaylor over Cincinnati Exchange, asked
- 1:24:01Speaker 2: that very question, and his headline is this, why is
- 1:24:05Speaker 2: Oakley underwater when Cincinnati has one point eight billion dollars
- 1:24:09Speaker 2: for infrastructure, And he's already documented the structural problems with
- 1:24:14Speaker 2: the settlement money, about how it can be used, about
- 1:24:18Speaker 2: how it is, how it is gaining interest, how it
- 1:24:21Speaker 2: is growing. But yet the construction costs are growing exponentially
- 1:24:27Speaker 2: more than what the one point six billion dollars is growing.
- 1:24:31Speaker 2: So you have a structural deficit there because we get
- 1:24:34Speaker 2: so much less bang for the buck when it comes
- 1:24:36Speaker 2: to fix and and by the way, Chris Smithman, are
- 1:24:40Speaker 2: you able to tell me what roads, what bridges, what
- 1:24:43Speaker 2: infrastructure has been addressed in a meaningful way since this
- 1:24:47Speaker 2: money has come into play, Only twelve to fourteen percent
- 1:24:51Speaker 2: of the funds available this year have been spent. So
- 1:24:53Speaker 2: the money this is a very unusual problem because the
- 1:24:57Speaker 2: money is there, and yet the people who run City
- 1:24:59Speaker 2: Hall or whoever you know, whatever committee is in charge
- 1:25:03Speaker 2: of spending this money simply can't get off there sitting
- 1:25:07Speaker 2: on their hands and find important, meaningful ways that can
- 1:25:11Speaker 2: improve the lives of Cincinnatians, to spend this money and
- 1:25:15Speaker 2: get something done where something like this could have positumed.
- 1:25:18Speaker 2: You know, if someone had the foresight to see something
- 1:25:21Speaker 2: like this and do something about it, then we wouldn't
- 1:25:24Speaker 2: have had these issues we had over the weekend.
- 1:25:27Speaker 10: Dan Carroll, the point you just made about inflation, so
- 1:25:32Speaker 10: we know construction costs are probably triple the national average
- 1:25:38Speaker 10: on inflation, maybe nine percent for construction. That's why when
- 1:25:43Speaker 10: we were talking Dan Carroll, Bryan Thomas, right, we were
- 1:25:49Speaker 10: myself and others Joe Strecker, we were saying, hey, listen,
- 1:25:54Speaker 10: Jim Kiefer, we're concerned that we're able to negotiate a
- 1:26:00Speaker 10: lease agreement of six nine percent increases of any in
- 1:26:05Speaker 10: the lease payments. We know that when we put the
- 1:26:08Speaker 10: money in the market, because they have to invest the market,
- 1:26:11Speaker 10: invest the dollars much more conservatively. Right, They can't just
- 1:26:15Speaker 10: go out here and buy whatever. They've got to invest
- 1:26:19Speaker 10: the money, most likely with a lot of fixed instruments.
- 1:26:23Speaker 10: They can't keep up with the nine percent increases in
- 1:26:27Speaker 10: inflation and construction costs. That's what you just raised. What
- 1:26:32Speaker 10: is the biggest issue, Dan Carroll, For anybody out there
- 1:26:35Speaker 10: who's retired, who's listening to me, who's getting a pension
- 1:26:39Speaker 10: on a monthly basis, on an annual basis, it's called inflation.
- 1:26:44Speaker 10: This is what we were trying to tell the mayor
- 1:26:47Speaker 10: who got his car repode twice. This is what we
- 1:26:50Speaker 10: were trying to share with him. You're selling something that
- 1:26:54Speaker 10: we can negotiate, meaning lease payments that are higher, are
- 1:26:59Speaker 10: more in line with those construction costs. Cincinnati, we got
- 1:27:04Speaker 10: screwed those who voted for this. This was a terrible deal.
- 1:27:07Speaker 10: We got a big rain, We've got pleasant Ridge underwater,
- 1:27:11Speaker 10: we've got High Park under water, we've got highways underwater,
- 1:27:14Speaker 10: and unfortunately we had a death in High Park due
- 1:27:18Speaker 10: to the flood. What more can we see to say
- 1:27:22Speaker 10: this was a bad deal for Cincinnati.
- 1:27:24Speaker 2: Dude. Yeah, it's the farther we get down this road,
- 1:27:29Speaker 2: the less appealing this deal becomes. Chris Smitherman, stay right there.
- 1:27:32Speaker 2: We got to get to a break and I've got
- 1:27:33Speaker 2: some more questions for you on the other side of this.
- 1:27:36Speaker 2: On fifty five KRC, the talk station.
- 1:27:38Speaker 12: Being prepared is everything but preplaiming our own final.
- 1:27:41Speaker 4: Arrange station.
- 1:27:45Speaker 2: Fifty five KRC de talk station. We are in the
- 1:27:48Speaker 2: midst of a Smith event and Chris Smitherman, this is
- 1:27:50Speaker 2: a question I've been wanting to ask you ever since
- 1:27:54Speaker 2: I first saw this last week. And today is July
- 1:27:56Speaker 2: the twentieth, and starting at noon today at the Juvenile
- 1:28:01Speaker 2: Court Assessment Center on William Howard Taft Road, the Hamilton
- 1:28:05Speaker 2: County Juvenile Court is hosting the Equality Ohio Legal Clinic
- 1:28:10Speaker 2: in partnership with Cincinnati Pride in trans Ohio, a free
- 1:28:14Speaker 2: legal clinic they call it for transplus and LGBTQ plus
- 1:28:19Speaker 2: youth on Monday, and so they want to the Hamilton
- 1:28:24Speaker 2: County Juvenile Court wants to have a free clinic that
- 1:28:29Speaker 2: is going to help kids change their name, change their
- 1:28:32Speaker 2: gender markers, and seal their criminal records. To my way
- 1:28:37Speaker 2: of thinking, this is something that the juvenile court really
- 1:28:40Speaker 2: should not be involved in. What say you?
- 1:28:44Speaker 6: I agree? I agree.
- 1:28:46Speaker 10: There's so many other issues that the juvenile court system
- 1:28:50Speaker 10: should be tackling, And an example of that would be
- 1:28:55Speaker 10: the epidemic of black youth killing each other. And it's
- 1:28:59Speaker 10: not even u anymore. Like the thirty seven year old
- 1:29:02Speaker 10: killed in witting Hills over the weekids right, murdered, right,
- 1:29:06Speaker 10: are the stabbing that you talked about in Kennedy Heights, right.
- 1:29:10Speaker 10: These aren't eighteen year olds and fourteen year olds, right,
- 1:29:13Speaker 10: These are grown people, right, But the super majority of
- 1:29:17Speaker 10: them are black men who are killing each other. So
- 1:29:20Speaker 10: you would think the juvenile court system, since the base
- 1:29:23Speaker 10: of the Democratic Party is the Black Americans that live here,
- 1:29:28Speaker 10: live in Cincinnati, live in Hamilton County, that they would
- 1:29:31Speaker 10: spend some time talking about what's happening with our juveniles,
- 1:29:36Speaker 10: specifically those who are murdering each other. And the only
- 1:29:40Speaker 10: reason Dan Carroll the murder rate isn't higher is you
- 1:29:44Speaker 10: see emergency care systems over there. We've got the best
- 1:29:48Speaker 10: doctors in the world that are putting Humpty Dumpty back
- 1:29:52Speaker 10: together again. If that wasn't happening. When somebody shot three
- 1:29:55Speaker 10: times and they make their way over to the emergency room,
- 1:29:59Speaker 10: in normal search circumstances, they would die. They don't die
- 1:30:03Speaker 10: because of our emergency teams in the emergency rooms Acrosster,
- 1:30:07Speaker 10: whether it's Christ's Hospital, whether it's UC, whether it's but
- 1:30:10Speaker 10: as the it doesn't matter. When somebody shows up. They
- 1:30:14Speaker 10: don't go hey man, let me see your insurance card.
- 1:30:17Speaker 10: They take them right. And what's also crazy is that
- 1:30:20Speaker 10: we have to dispatch sometimes our law enforcement there to
- 1:30:24Speaker 10: keep the opposing sides together because somebody shot them and
- 1:30:27Speaker 10: wanted them to die. They're there in the waiting room
- 1:30:30Speaker 10: wanting to fight the doctors who are trying to save
- 1:30:32Speaker 10: the lives of people. It's like a war like Iraq
- 1:30:35Speaker 10: out here. Fifty shots fired in Clifton, Dude, fifty shots
- 1:30:40Speaker 10: Think about somebody putting a cliff, putting, putting their magazine
- 1:30:44Speaker 10: back in and then opening fire. Fifty shots fired in Clifton.
- 1:30:49Speaker 10: This tells you that the crime is bleeding over, is
- 1:30:53Speaker 10: moving around. Now, it's going to start hitting these neighborhoods
- 1:30:56Speaker 10: that have not experienced this kind of violence. And one
- 1:30:59Speaker 10: of the seing Dan Carroll, you said that really got
- 1:31:02Speaker 10: me going on the break. It was the money isn't
- 1:31:05Speaker 10: being spent for infrastructure. So the first segment you said,
- 1:31:09Speaker 10: eleven or twelve percent of the money is only out
- 1:31:12Speaker 10: of the door, right, That means that eighty eight percent
- 1:31:14Speaker 10: of the money is sitting there that is not being spent.
- 1:31:18Speaker 10: Let's forget about whether you and I agree whether the
- 1:31:21Speaker 10: one point six billion whether a good deal or bad.
- 1:31:23Speaker 10: Let's go with what former Mayor Charlie Luken said, why
- 1:31:27Speaker 10: aren't you sending the money out when I when I
- 1:31:30Speaker 10: was sitting on City Council.
- 1:31:32Speaker 2: Boy, and the money, the money that is five million
- 1:31:35Speaker 2: is there. The money that is being sent out is
- 1:31:37Speaker 2: is still sitting is still sitting there idle. It's they
- 1:31:41Speaker 2: don't have a plan to say, when we get X
- 1:31:44Speaker 2: amount of dollars, we are going to do this project,
- 1:31:47Speaker 2: this project, this project that we don't have the foresight
- 1:31:50Speaker 2: to have the contractors in place, to have everything in place,
- 1:31:53Speaker 2: and as soon as that money is available, boom you
- 1:31:56Speaker 2: get going on those jobs. But that has not happened,
- 1:31:59Speaker 2: and that's correct. Just the terrible, big level of incompetence
- 1:32:03Speaker 2: at City Hall that you and I have been talking
- 1:32:06Speaker 2: about for years.
- 1:32:06Speaker 10: Now, correct, Dan Carroll, this is not This is what
- 1:32:10Speaker 10: frustrates me. They sent those big pamphlets out because the
- 1:32:13Speaker 10: railroad spent somewhere between five and six million dollars to
- 1:32:19Speaker 10: convent Cincinnati voters that this was a good deal. It's
- 1:32:22Speaker 10: the most money ever spent on an issue in the
- 1:32:26Speaker 10: history of the city. They knew. Why would they want
- 1:32:29Speaker 10: to keep paying thirty or forty million when they can
- 1:32:31Speaker 10: give us one point six billion present value and then
- 1:32:35Speaker 10: us transition the risk to the stock market instead of
- 1:32:39Speaker 10: the company paying us that money. We never missed the payment.
- 1:32:42Speaker 10: But if the forty million or thirty six million had
- 1:32:45Speaker 10: come into the city right, this is what would happen,
- 1:32:47Speaker 10: Dan Carroll, You and I could be asking city council
- 1:32:50Speaker 10: in the mayor, what did you do with the thirty
- 1:32:52Speaker 10: six million dollar check you just got Right now? Nobody knows.
- 1:32:55Speaker 10: You can't even name and I can't even the name
- 1:32:57Speaker 10: the five people that are on the board. You and
- 1:32:59Speaker 10: I can. He would say, why is only twelve percent
- 1:33:02Speaker 10: of the money out?
- 1:33:03Speaker 6: Where is the rest of the money.
- 1:33:04Speaker 10: All we know is floods are happening, potholes are happening,
- 1:33:07Speaker 10: sidewalks are crumbling, streets are falling apart, and city council
- 1:33:11Speaker 10: has no answer, just a lame statement from a mayor
- 1:33:16Speaker 10: who is incompetent and doesn't know what he's doing.
- 1:33:19Speaker 2: Mayor, well, I think our mayor was out of town.
- 1:33:22Speaker 2: Wasn't our mayor out of town again this past week?
- 1:33:25Speaker 10: Of course, of course he is brother, of course he
- 1:33:27Speaker 10: is Dan care Look, of course brother. Of course bigger
- 1:33:30Speaker 10: let that bigger fishing problem. Because here's the reality. Well, Chris,
- 1:33:35Speaker 10: turn on your TV and you see him on ABC News,
- 1:33:38Speaker 10: you see him on these national programs. Why isn't he
- 1:33:41Speaker 10: holding press conferences where the flood is saying this is
- 1:33:44Speaker 10: how we're going to solve the problem.
- 1:33:46Speaker 2: That's a good question. It seems that whenever we have
- 1:33:51Speaker 2: serious issues like this, the mayor is is usually usually
- 1:33:56Speaker 2: not here or he's either phoning it in one or
- 1:33:58Speaker 2: the other. So Chris, stay right there and we'll continue
- 1:34:01Speaker 2: on with the Smith event coming up on fifty five
- 1:34:04Speaker 2: KRCV talk station. Hi's Mind, Thomas here wast from USA
- 1:34:07Speaker 2: and Sleation and Steve seven On this Monday morning, we
- 1:34:15Speaker 2: continue on with the Smith event, and Chris, I was
- 1:34:17Speaker 2: thinking about the site of the example of the fifty
- 1:34:20Speaker 2: shots that were fired this past not this past weekend,
- 1:34:24Speaker 2: but last weekend at the Airbnb situation, And I was
- 1:34:27Speaker 2: thinking fifty shots fired. And when you said that, I
- 1:34:30Speaker 2: was thinking that maybe we're fortunate that the people engaged
- 1:34:33Speaker 2: in firing those shots were so poor at their marksmanship
- 1:34:37Speaker 2: that more people were not hit, killed, or wounded in
- 1:34:41Speaker 2: that shooting. But I was looking at the story in
- 1:34:43Speaker 2: the Cincinnati Enquirer of the thirty seven year old who
- 1:34:47Speaker 2: was shot and killed in Winton Hills over the weekend,
- 1:34:50Speaker 2: and at the end of the article, the Inquirer reassures
- 1:34:53Speaker 2: us that citywide shootings are down this year compared to
- 1:34:56Speaker 2: last year, with only one hundred and nineteen reported shootings
- 1:35:00Speaker 2: across Cincinnati compared to what we had one hundred twenty
- 1:35:05Speaker 2: nine in twenty twenty five. So now we have the
- 1:35:09Speaker 2: specter of the city who they want to, I guess,
- 1:35:15Speaker 2: recommit to the collaborative Agreement or strengthen it or add
- 1:35:18Speaker 2: to it somehow. So we've got these these serious issues
- 1:35:22Speaker 2: going on with infrastructure, with crime and things like this,
- 1:35:27Speaker 2: and Iris Rowley is again taking the lead when it
- 1:35:30Speaker 2: comes to when it comes to reaffirming this collaborative Agreement
- 1:35:37Speaker 2: and then furthering the notion that our Cincinnati police are
- 1:35:40Speaker 2: racist because of the amount of stops that they make
- 1:35:44Speaker 2: in certain neighborhoods.
- 1:35:46Speaker 10: That's insane. That's completely insane. I since that police apartment
- 1:35:51Speaker 10: best in the country. People travel from all over the world.
- 1:35:55Speaker 10: When I was chair of Law and Public Faithy, they
- 1:35:56Speaker 10: always came me here to figure out how we were
- 1:35:59Speaker 10: doing what we were doing our best technology, and I
- 1:36:02Speaker 10: want every officer out there to hear you, and I
- 1:36:04Speaker 10: continue to tell them you're doing a great job. Stop
- 1:36:08Speaker 10: listening to this nonsense and get out here and enforce
- 1:36:11Speaker 10: the law.
- 1:36:12Speaker 6: Right now.
- 1:36:13Speaker 10: The other part of this is I'm going to say
- 1:36:15Speaker 10: something that I usually don't do and deal with some
- 1:36:17Speaker 10: identity politics.
- 1:36:18Speaker 6: All right.
- 1:36:18Speaker 10: I'm gonna take a risk here, and I'm gonna say
- 1:36:21Speaker 10: to the city they keep sending the message that they
- 1:36:24Speaker 10: just don't care about black men killing themselves. Right it's
- 1:36:28Speaker 10: not the guns. These are people that are deciding to
- 1:36:32Speaker 10: kill each other. Right now. If the mayor woke up
- 1:36:35Speaker 10: and seventy or eighty white men were shooting each other
- 1:36:40Speaker 10: in the city, I guarantee you he'd be holding press
- 1:36:43Speaker 10: conferences all over the place trying to figure it out
- 1:36:46Speaker 10: what's going on, But they really just don't care. This
- 1:36:50Speaker 10: is what's so frustrating about, in my opinion, black Americans
- 1:36:54Speaker 10: who tie themselves to the Democratics party one day, and
- 1:36:58Speaker 10: I'm a Black American. One day, we're gonna have to
- 1:37:01Speaker 10: wake up and understand that these Dixiecrats do not care
- 1:37:04Speaker 10: about us right, that the Republican Party is the party
- 1:37:08Speaker 10: that freed black Americans. These are facts. Whether it was Lincoln,
- 1:37:12Speaker 10: whether it was the executive order of the Emancipation Proclamation,
- 1:37:16Speaker 10: whether it's the Thirteenth Amendment, the fourteenth Amendment, let me
- 1:37:19Speaker 10: tell you it wasn't Democrats. And certainly in dred Scott
- 1:37:24Speaker 10: at the Supreme Court, the Dixycrats, the supermajority of them,
- 1:37:28Speaker 10: told dred Scott, you're gonna be a slave, You're always
- 1:37:31Speaker 10: gonna be property for your entire life. Then they pimp
- 1:37:34Speaker 10: us out right and tell us birthright. We're gonna use
- 1:37:38Speaker 10: dred Scott to say somebody can just roll in here
- 1:37:41Speaker 10: from Europe, drop a baby from Germany. A German person
- 1:37:46Speaker 10: comes here, drops a baby, and that baby now is
- 1:37:48Speaker 10: an American, and they use the dread Scott case. This
- 1:37:51Speaker 10: is them pimping us out the Democratic Party. My point
- 1:37:54Speaker 10: is that they just don't care. Dan Carroll, and I'm
- 1:37:58Speaker 10: trying to understand. I know you, I know a lot
- 1:38:00Speaker 10: of your listeners get it. When will black Americans get
- 1:38:03Speaker 10: it that those people that are out there pimping all
- 1:38:06Speaker 10: this race and stirring the pot, it's all about them
- 1:38:09Speaker 10: getting paid. It's all about them getting the next contract.
- 1:38:12Speaker 10: It has nothing to do with solving the issues that
- 1:38:15Speaker 10: are most important to us. The last point I want
- 1:38:18Speaker 10: to make, dude a property taxes, and I'm connecting it
- 1:38:21Speaker 10: to the conversation we're just having. I want property owners
- 1:38:25Speaker 10: to be the only ones voting on property taxes. Property
- 1:38:28Speaker 10: taxes are going through the roof in the city of Cincinnaty,
- 1:38:30Speaker 10: and this November they're gonna be all kind of levies
- 1:38:32Speaker 10: out there. That is that is that And Grandma and
- 1:38:36Speaker 10: bond Hill and Evingston on a fixed income, cannot afford
- 1:38:40Speaker 10: her house. Not because of she's paid the house off
- 1:38:44Speaker 10: from the bank. She's owned the house for twenty years.
- 1:38:46Speaker 10: Her husband has passed away. She lives in bond Hill.
- 1:38:49Speaker 10: She's a working middle class family, driving an American car.
- 1:38:52Speaker 10: But now her property taxes now are pricing her out.
- 1:38:56Speaker 10: They work two hundred dollars now they're four hundred dollars
- 1:38:59Speaker 10: and they don't connect. Voters don't connect. You're walking in
- 1:39:03Speaker 10: there in sixty five percent of your property taxes in
- 1:39:05Speaker 10: the city of Cincinnati. Is the Cincinnati Public school system, right,
- 1:39:09Speaker 10: that's what they are. Seventy six percent or seventy five
- 1:39:12Speaker 10: percent of the kids there are Black Americans. But we've
- 1:39:15Speaker 10: got most of our schools failing, failing, and so why
- 1:39:19Speaker 10: are we continuing to just throw money? And the school
- 1:39:22Speaker 10: board says, I really don't have any real solutions for
- 1:39:24Speaker 10: you to resolve these issues, right, and whether whatever the
- 1:39:28Speaker 10: left is, I don't have to name them. They're all
- 1:39:30Speaker 10: going to be out here in November saying we need
- 1:39:32Speaker 10: more money, We need more money. I'm letting you know,
- 1:39:35Speaker 10: Dan Carrol, we can't afford it. And property owners, in
- 1:39:38Speaker 10: my opinion, should be the ones voting on it. If
- 1:39:41Speaker 10: you don't own property, you don't have skin in the game.
- 1:39:44Speaker 10: Why do you get to go in and say I'm
- 1:39:46Speaker 10: gonna raise your property taxes? That doesn't make any sense
- 1:39:49Speaker 10: to me. But I can tell you what people are
- 1:39:51Speaker 10: really talking about is affordability. Is Cincinnati affordable, and every
- 1:39:55Speaker 10: day it becomes less affordable. And we're talking about things
- 1:39:59Speaker 10: like the police support artment is racist because they're doing
- 1:40:01Speaker 10: stops and cars and black people are the ones being stopped.
- 1:40:05Speaker 10: But the black people in our city, the black males
- 1:40:08Speaker 10: that I'm talking about, are murdering each other every single
- 1:40:11Speaker 10: weekend at the silence of this mayor who's more interested
- 1:40:15Speaker 10: in going to Congress, more interested in being a senator,
- 1:40:18Speaker 10: more interested in being a governor than he is the
- 1:40:20Speaker 10: mayor of the city of Cincinnati.
- 1:40:22Speaker 2: Well, Chris Smitherman, as always, you make so many great points,
- 1:40:25Speaker 2: and that's why this is appointment Radio. Whenever the smither
- 1:40:29Speaker 2: event takes place, we got to let you go. But
- 1:40:33Speaker 2: very quickly, what's the latest on your petition and do
- 1:40:36Speaker 2: you still have the work going on to get people
- 1:40:39Speaker 2: to sign these petitions.
- 1:40:41Speaker 10: Yes, they're eighty individuals people out there that are collecting signatures.
- 1:40:46Speaker 10: They are doing a great job. We thank them. If
- 1:40:48Speaker 10: you run across one of those eighty people that are
- 1:40:50Speaker 10: collecting signators, sign the petition. And signing the petition means
- 1:40:54Speaker 10: that you are in democracy. Don't mind the issue being
- 1:40:58Speaker 10: on the ballot. You might not even support the issue,
- 1:41:00Speaker 10: but give us the democracy. What's so crazy about it
- 1:41:03Speaker 10: is the electeds are out there wanting us to sign
- 1:41:06Speaker 10: their petitions. Next year they'll be up for reelection. City
- 1:41:10Speaker 10: council will be up for reelection. Sign my petition. Where
- 1:41:12Speaker 10: I go, Man, I don't really like you. Why am
- 1:41:14Speaker 10: I signing your petition? I don't want you? But no,
- 1:41:16Speaker 10: I signed those petitions because I believe in democracy. They
- 1:41:20Speaker 10: have a right to put their name on the ballot
- 1:41:21Speaker 10: and I have the right to vote against them. This
- 1:41:23Speaker 10: is what's crazy out here that people are out well, man,
- 1:41:25Speaker 10: I'm not going to sign that petition because I don't agree.
- 1:41:28Speaker 6: No, you're really a.
- 1:41:29Speaker 10: Communist or a socialist and you really don't believe in democracy.
- 1:41:32Speaker 10: That's really what's going on. But we're doing a good job.
- 1:41:34Speaker 10: I think all the people are out there. It's a
- 1:41:36Speaker 10: Charter amendment, so they're out there collecting signatures to simply
- 1:41:39Speaker 10: say no city manager going for will ever ever have
- 1:41:43Speaker 10: the sole power to fire. And by the way, I
- 1:41:45Speaker 10: know we got to go. But Chief Washington, a black
- 1:41:48Speaker 10: man who was fired by a black woman, is about
- 1:41:51Speaker 10: to get paid that. Clearly, this three panel judge is
- 1:41:55Speaker 10: about to rule. It's coming do and they're going to
- 1:41:57Speaker 10: send this right back to that lower court. That Lord
- 1:42:00Speaker 10: quarter is going to say, you got two options. City.
- 1:42:02Speaker 10: Listen to me down there, City Solicitor. I hope you're listening.
- 1:42:06Speaker 10: You have set aside nine million dollars for a settlement
- 1:42:10Speaker 10: in this current budget. And I know whose name is
- 1:42:13Speaker 10: on it, Chief Washington, because you've destroyed his reputation. You
- 1:42:18Speaker 10: fired him without cause, and at the end of the day,
- 1:42:21Speaker 10: you're about to pay him. And this is why this
- 1:42:24Speaker 10: petition is so important, because we never want this to
- 1:42:26Speaker 10: happen again. She's fired the police chief, she's pushed out
- 1:42:30Speaker 10: the director of Public Services, and now which we're not
- 1:42:35Speaker 10: even talking about, she's trying to push out recreation. They've
- 1:42:38Speaker 10: got an ordinance right now saying they want to take
- 1:42:41Speaker 10: over the recreation department essentially, which direct director reports directly
- 1:42:45Speaker 10: to the board. He wants the rect director to report
- 1:42:48Speaker 10: directly to her, you know why, so she can fire
- 1:42:51Speaker 10: him to Daniel Bettt. So God bless you. People can
- 1:42:55Speaker 10: follow me on x at vote Smitheman and Dan Carroll,
- 1:43:00Speaker 10: you're a great American. Please give my best to your
- 1:43:02Speaker 10: family and thank you so much for having me on.
- 1:43:04Speaker 2: Brothers and Chris and Chris Smith, it's so great at
- 1:43:11Speaker 2: bringing all this stuff into perspective and it's it's it's
- 1:43:15Speaker 2: amazing how all of this is connected. We don't have
- 1:43:18Speaker 2: serious people in our courts, we don't have serious people
- 1:43:20Speaker 2: at city hall. We I think we have serious people
- 1:43:24Speaker 2: in the police department who want to do a good job,
- 1:43:29Speaker 2: but their hands are tied and tied even further by
- 1:43:34Speaker 2: the whatever develops in the city. You've got organizations and
- 1:43:39Speaker 2: again he and he called it out, this organization to
- 1:43:43Speaker 2: put out this report about the police stops and the
- 1:43:47Speaker 2: racial disparities and all that they're looking to get paid.
- 1:43:51Speaker 2: And we have people at city Hall who think that
- 1:43:55Speaker 2: this is a priority somehow. And when we have these
- 1:43:58Speaker 2: communities who have come to city Hall saying, look, we've
- 1:44:01Speaker 2: got crime in our area. We need more police to
- 1:44:04Speaker 2: do something about it. And then when police do well,
- 1:44:06Speaker 2: they're called out for being racist. And that's the catalyst
- 1:44:10Speaker 2: for even more changes in the police department, even more DEI,
- 1:44:15Speaker 2: more political correctness, more mumbo jumbo, and people wind up
- 1:44:20Speaker 2: paying with their lives. And Chris Smith of the min
- 1:44:22Speaker 2: is so great and the whole thing with the Juvenile
- 1:44:25Speaker 2: Court hosting this event today, all this concentration on the
- 1:44:30Speaker 2: LGBTQ and transgender youth, transing a kid, even the social transitioning.
- 1:44:39Speaker 2: Can I really it's hard to imagine anything that is
- 1:44:42Speaker 2: more harmful to the life of a young person than
- 1:44:45Speaker 2: letting them and helping them further on down the road
- 1:44:48Speaker 2: in that pursuit. But yet our court finds time to
- 1:44:53Speaker 2: engage in that stay. We're only lending them the space. Well,
- 1:44:56Speaker 2: that's not what you said a couple of weeks ago.
- 1:44:58Speaker 2: It is seven fift We got to get to a
- 1:45:00Speaker 2: break news coming up top of the hour five one,
- 1:45:02Speaker 2: three seven, if you want to get on board. Dan
- 1:45:05Speaker 2: Carroll for Brian Thomas fifty five KRCV Talkstations Celebrate. You know,
- 1:45:25Speaker 2: we had a caller earlier this morning. We talked about
- 1:45:28Speaker 2: how we love hearing the Van Halen music. I'm almost
- 1:45:32Speaker 2: a little gun shy talking over it. Gotta let that
- 1:45:36Speaker 2: Maybe I should let that Van Hallen just play a
- 1:45:38Speaker 2: little bit longer there, Joe Strucker before I say anything,
- 1:45:43Speaker 2: so our listeners can enjoy a little Van Halen instead
- 1:45:48Speaker 2: of listening to me. Oh it's all good, It's all good.
- 1:45:54Speaker 2: Eight o six On this Monday morning, July twentieth Dan
- 1:45:56Speaker 2: Carolyn for Brian'strecker on Brian Strucker. Brian Joe Strecker is
- 1:46:01Speaker 2: running the big board and doing the executive producing as
- 1:46:05Speaker 2: he always does fifty five Kerost except when he's on vacation,
- 1:46:08Speaker 2: which isn't that often, and we miss him when he's
- 1:46:11Speaker 2: not here. No, I was just thinking about what Chris
- 1:46:15Speaker 2: Smitheman was talking about in Channel nine did a story
- 1:46:21Speaker 2: about people who live in the Columbia Tusculum area other
- 1:46:25Speaker 2: areas around there, the Duck Creek area, and we've known
- 1:46:30Speaker 2: about the flooding problems that happened there whenever we get
- 1:46:33Speaker 2: a heavy rain. We've known about these issues for years,
- 1:46:37Speaker 2: and people around the area were telling our local TV
- 1:46:41Speaker 2: stations and the newspaper reporters that went out there to
- 1:46:45Speaker 2: cover this that that you know, this is this is
- 1:46:51Speaker 2: part for the course. Ann Ringling spent the weekend cleaning
- 1:46:55Speaker 2: out the lower level of her home. It was less
- 1:46:58Speaker 2: than ten minutes from the point at which they saw
- 1:47:02Speaker 2: it starting. They saw the water creep up above the deckline.
- 1:47:05Speaker 2: They had ten minutes from there to do whatever they
- 1:47:10Speaker 2: could to deal with the flood waters that were coming
- 1:47:12Speaker 2: their way. The flooding came just one day after her
- 1:47:16Speaker 2: son's roommate moved into the home. They said, this is
- 1:47:21Speaker 2: the room mate's space and just started moving in. He's
- 1:47:23Speaker 2: lost everything. She and her family spent days removing damage, flooring, belonging,
- 1:47:30Speaker 2: and belongings while waiting for MSD to inspect the property.
- 1:47:34Speaker 2: She said she received a call from MSD but has
- 1:47:37Speaker 2: not been told when someone will come out to evaluate
- 1:47:39Speaker 2: the damage. So she said, we bought this home because
- 1:47:43Speaker 2: we were told MSD had taken care of it. Otherwise
- 1:47:47Speaker 2: we would not have purchased the home. Another neighbor, Jimmy Kamadeca,
- 1:47:54Speaker 2: said it's a consistent issue the drain. It's a known issue.
- 1:47:58Speaker 2: They know about it. It's been constant problem for many,
- 1:48:01Speaker 2: many years. WCPO reported on previous flooding that happened in
- 1:48:06Speaker 2: the same area going back to twenty seventeen, so this
- 1:48:13Speaker 2: was not a surprise. And the infrastructure money, if it
- 1:48:19Speaker 2: can't be used for that, then that kind of stuff,
- 1:48:22Speaker 2: then what can it be used? And that was the
- 1:48:26Speaker 2: question that Adam Kahler asked in his piece in the
- 1:48:30Speaker 2: Cincinnati Exchange and the title is why is Oakley underwater?
- 1:48:36Speaker 2: When Cincinnati has one point eight billion for infrastructure. Three
- 1:48:42Speaker 2: years ago, Cincinnati voters are greed to sell the city
- 1:48:44Speaker 2: owned railroad, the only one in the country, one point
- 1:48:49Speaker 2: six billion dollars specifically for fixing aging infrastructure. The money
- 1:48:54Speaker 2: is sitting in a trust that is now worth one
- 1:48:56Speaker 2: point eight billion. As of this spring, the city has
- 1:49:02Speaker 2: spent only twelve to fourteen percent of the fifty six
- 1:49:05Speaker 2: billion the trust board authorized for spending this fiscal year,
- 1:49:11Speaker 2: so there is no rush to get this money out
- 1:49:16Speaker 2: the door, and Kayler writes there's a track record that
- 1:49:22Speaker 2: predates the flood. Skepticism about whether Cincinnati can deliver on
- 1:49:27Speaker 2: a one point eight billion dollar promise doesn't start with
- 1:49:29Speaker 2: Friday's flooding. It has a paper trail. A city commission
- 1:49:33Speaker 2: surveyed released in March ranked road maintenance dead last and
- 1:49:36Speaker 2: a resident satisfaction among thirteen city services, with just twelve
- 1:49:42Speaker 2: percent of residents saying the city handles it well, compared
- 1:49:45Speaker 2: to thirty five percent in comparability in comparably sized cities.
- 1:49:50Speaker 2: Pavement conditions have declined for five straight years, according to
- 1:49:53Speaker 2: the city's own transportation director, and now rates sixty three
- 1:49:57Speaker 2: out of one hundred pothole related service free quest up
- 1:50:00Speaker 2: forty six percent over years of as of this spring
- 1:50:07Speaker 2: your year of year, I should say as of this spring.
- 1:50:09Speaker 2: Pervall acknowledged the problem directly at a budget process conference,
- 1:50:15Speaker 2: said the condition of roads are not meeting our expectations. Well,
- 1:50:18Speaker 2: what has been done about the condition of roads? Then
- 1:50:25Speaker 2: he writes talking about City Hall. On June tenth, city
- 1:50:28Speaker 2: Council unanimously passed an ordinance merging the city's Department of
- 1:50:32Speaker 2: Economic Inclusion with its Office of Procurement. The newly developed
- 1:50:38Speaker 2: the new Department of Economic Inclusion and Procurement takes effect
- 1:50:41Speaker 2: in September. Bernie Marino, US Senator sent sent Mayor Pervall
- 1:50:49Speaker 2: a letter calling it a potentially illegal and wasteful DEI
- 1:50:54Speaker 2: procurement ordinance. Moreno claims Cincinnati spends three to five million
- 1:50:59Speaker 2: dollars a year year on DEI initiative grants and departments.
- 1:51:04Speaker 2: The city hasn't confirmed that figure, but Marino says the
- 1:51:07Speaker 2: money should get either go towards the city's roughly thirty
- 1:51:11Speaker 2: million thirty million dollars budget deficit or towards public safety,
- 1:51:17Speaker 2: and he sent a copy of that that led that
- 1:51:18Speaker 2: letter to the Justice Department and threatening a cut of
- 1:51:22Speaker 2: federal funds. Purvoll's office says, the merger doesn't create a
- 1:51:28Speaker 2: new diversity program. We're increased spending, and then we get
- 1:51:35Speaker 2: to the infrastructure. None of this happens in a vacuum.
- 1:51:39Speaker 2: Cincinnati hasn't elected a Republican mayor since nineteen seventy one,
- 1:51:42Speaker 2: to fifty five years of one party running city hall
- 1:51:46Speaker 2: without serious two party competition at the top, Cincinnati's elections
- 1:51:50Speaker 2: are technically nonpartisan, no party labels appear on the ballot
- 1:51:53Speaker 2: for mayor or council, but the results aren't closed. Democrats
- 1:51:57Speaker 2: currently hold all nine city council seats and the mayor's office,
- 1:52:03Speaker 2: and have for two straight elections. A Charter Committee campaign
- 1:52:07Speaker 2: staffer put it this way during the last council race.
- 1:52:10Speaker 2: With all nine Democrats all the time, council risks becoming
- 1:52:13Speaker 2: an echo chamber of everybody saying yes, yes, yes, that matters.
- 1:52:19Speaker 2: Specifically for the infrastructure story, a city government that doesn't
- 1:52:22Speaker 2: face real electoral pressure from an opposing party has less
- 1:52:27Speaker 2: built in reason to move fast on unglamorous unpopular with nobody,
- 1:52:31Speaker 2: but nobody's demanding at work like sewer pipes and street repaving.
- 1:52:37Speaker 2: And makes a great point there. The idea of fixing
- 1:52:41Speaker 2: the sewers, the idea of making sure that drainage is right,
- 1:52:46Speaker 2: the idea of the people's property is protected in the
- 1:52:50Speaker 2: event of a heavy rainfall. None of that is very
- 1:52:52Speaker 2: sexy on the scale of public perception or you know,
- 1:53:01Speaker 2: political favorites. That kind of stuff doesn't play that great
- 1:53:07Speaker 2: on TV. But when we have situations like we had
- 1:53:12Speaker 2: with the heavy rain this past weekend, how well does
- 1:53:16Speaker 2: it hold up?
- 1:53:16Speaker 10: Then?
- 1:53:16Speaker 2: Well, it holds up pretty well because people aren't on
- 1:53:19Speaker 2: TV talking about all the crap that's floating around their house. Then,
- 1:53:26Speaker 2: But voters keep choosing this set up anyway. For all
- 1:53:29Speaker 2: won re election with roughly eighty percent of the primary vote.
- 1:53:34Speaker 2: Democrats have swept all nine council seats twice in a row.
- 1:53:39Speaker 2: If one party rule is part of why infrastructure money
- 1:53:42Speaker 2: moves slowly, the responsibility for that argument lies with voters,
- 1:53:46Speaker 2: not just city hall. And he's one hundred percent right.
- 1:53:54Speaker 2: Iris Rolies contracts city has paid community consultant Iris Rolly
- 1:53:57Speaker 2: between five hundred and seventy and six hundred six sixty
- 1:54:00Speaker 2: four one thousand dollars across contracts, tied with youth violence
- 1:54:06Speaker 2: prevention and police community relations work. That figure includes hiring
- 1:54:12Speaker 2: her own two sons as paid subcontractors. The city manager
- 1:54:16Speaker 2: signed one contract on election day. A former council member
- 1:54:19Speaker 2: called the arrangement patronage. Tom Zinzer, retired Federal Inspector General,
- 1:54:24Speaker 2: has flagged the timing and nepotism publicly. So this is
- 1:54:30Speaker 2: the kind of stuff that we have going on at
- 1:54:35Speaker 2: city Hall, and when the rubber hits the road, we
- 1:54:38Speaker 2: see the results. But yet Kaylor makes a great point
- 1:54:45Speaker 2: that we keep electing these folks and we keep getting
- 1:54:50Speaker 2: the same results. And finally he asks this question, how
- 1:54:54Speaker 2: much of the three hundred and fifty to four hundred
- 1:54:56Speaker 2: million backlog prevel cited in twenty twenty two has been
- 1:55:00Speaker 2: chosen three years later? Where do MSD stormwater capacity upgrades
- 1:55:04Speaker 2: for Oakley Hyde Park and norwould sit within its own
- 1:55:07Speaker 2: capital plan? And what on what timeline? What five hundred
- 1:55:14Speaker 2: and seventy thousand, six hundred and sixty four thousand Irish
- 1:55:16Speaker 2: ROLLI contracts? What has it produced? Those are those are
- 1:55:22Speaker 2: all great questions again not all that sexy, but questions
- 1:55:27Speaker 2: that need to be asked. I mean, being in charge
- 1:55:29Speaker 2: of city government or municipal government isn't always about what
- 1:55:34Speaker 2: looks good or you know, what's fancy or what's fashionable,
- 1:55:40Speaker 2: but when it and these are these are the very basics.
- 1:55:46Speaker 2: We've got the money now, and again not getting into
- 1:55:51Speaker 2: all the weeds about whether or not selling the railroad
- 1:55:53Speaker 2: was the right thing to do. But the money is
- 1:55:55Speaker 2: there and we can't even spend it effectively. And if
- 1:56:00Speaker 2: this new configuration of the of these two offices being
- 1:56:03Speaker 2: put together, which it was just done this month, why
- 1:56:09Speaker 2: wasn't there the foresight to create this office and streamline
- 1:56:12Speaker 2: that process so we can get that money out the door.
- 1:56:15Speaker 2: Where was that before that money was even put in
- 1:56:20Speaker 2: place so you could hit the ground right running. It
- 1:56:23Speaker 2: wasn't there. Again, not sexy enough, not front burner. They've
- 1:56:27Speaker 2: got other priorities. Eight seventeen fifty five krs DE top stations,
- 1:56:32Speaker 2: I heard.
- 1:56:32Speaker 8: Radio music, Trustival pre sent Capitol wide deep talk station.
- 1:56:41Speaker 2: Five one three seven fifty five hundred phone lines are
- 1:56:45Speaker 2: open if you want to pick up the phone. Dan
- 1:56:46Speaker 2: Carroll and for Brian Thomas, small business and startups. So
- 1:56:52Speaker 2: the heart of America's economy, this peace and red state
- 1:56:55Speaker 2: number of employees after all of a company like General
- 1:56:58Speaker 2: Motors may not change all that much from year to year,
- 1:57:01Speaker 2: but a new small business starting up may have one
- 1:57:04Speaker 2: employee the first month, three after a year, twenty a
- 1:57:08Speaker 2: year later if things go well, that's where job growth
- 1:57:10Speaker 2: comes from, and that's where wealth is produced and earned.
- 1:57:13Speaker 2: And now the first half of twenty twenty six, the
- 1:57:18Speaker 2: American economy has seen the creation of three point five
- 1:57:21Speaker 2: million new businesses. Registered Agents, Inc, a business formation service provider,
- 1:57:31Speaker 2: release its June twenty six Business report. It found that
- 1:57:35Speaker 2: US added three million, four hundred and ninety three thousand
- 1:57:38Speaker 2: businesses in the first six months of twenty twenty six,
- 1:57:44Speaker 2: despite economic pressure and uncertainty in global markets. The month
- 1:57:49Speaker 2: of June alone showed an increase of five hundred and
- 1:57:52Speaker 2: forty eight thousand businesses, a greater increase over the June
- 1:57:58Speaker 2: twenty one Pandemics surge of five hundred and nine thousand.
- 1:58:04Speaker 2: So we remember all that talk after the Wuhan was over,
- 1:58:10Speaker 2: of Joe Biden claiming all this, you know, economic prosperity
- 1:58:17Speaker 2: on his watch. Five hundred and nine thousand new businesses
- 1:58:21Speaker 2: in one month's pretty good, but five hundred forty eight
- 1:58:25Speaker 2: thousand is even better. The June twenty twenty six increase
- 1:58:31Speaker 2: also substantially more than June of twenty five, when the
- 1:58:33Speaker 2: economy added four hundred and ninety thousand small businesses even
- 1:58:40Speaker 2: in the summer. Even in the summer now and the
- 1:58:42Speaker 2: way when business growth usually drops off, American economy stayed stable.
- 1:58:48Speaker 2: This represents four hundred and forty two thousand, four hundred
- 1:58:51Speaker 2: and fifteen more businesses than the first half of last year,
- 1:58:55Speaker 2: illustrating a massive wave of nearly a million more entrepreneurs
- 1:58:59Speaker 2: stepping up to build against the backdrop of economic uncertainty. Typically,
- 1:59:06Speaker 2: the report said, the summer season shows a dip in
- 1:59:09Speaker 2: business creation. However, this year, business grows slowed or showed
- 1:59:14Speaker 2: to be more flat than deflated. June capped off a
- 1:59:18Speaker 2: truly remarkable first half of entrepreneurship in America, said Molly Kavanaugh,
- 1:59:24Speaker 2: vice president of Revenue Growth and Data. While people continue
- 1:59:28Speaker 2: to navigate inflation and higher interest rates, record breaking formation
- 1:59:31Speaker 2: activity reflects a strong sense of confidence and determination among
- 1:59:37Speaker 2: new business owners. So I think that's it, and I
- 1:59:42Speaker 2: think that's very important as to why this situation with
- 1:59:46Speaker 2: Iran needs to get wrapped up and needs to get
- 1:59:48Speaker 2: squared away quickly. And I was listening to some talk
- 1:59:52Speaker 2: about that over the weekend, and it is beyond frustrating
- 1:59:58Speaker 2: that Iran maintains capability to launch missiles and kill American
- 2:00:01Speaker 2: soldiers missiles and drones, and why we haven't and we
- 2:00:07Speaker 2: constantly hear from this administration that we have degraded the
- 2:00:12Speaker 2: Iran military to such a point that they don't have
- 2:00:15Speaker 2: certain capabilities anymore, but yet they still show the capability
- 2:00:19Speaker 2: to launch missiles and drones. And why we haven't degraded
- 2:00:25Speaker 2: that capability to the point where they are no longer
- 2:00:27Speaker 2: able to do that is beyond me. And the only
- 2:00:32Speaker 2: reason that I can think of why we haven't gone
- 2:00:36Speaker 2: just gone ham And look, we've had what I said,
- 2:00:39Speaker 2: it's eight or nine straight days of strikes on Iran.
- 2:00:44Speaker 2: I think we need to keep that pressure up. But
- 2:00:47Speaker 2: why we're not, Why we don't have the ability to
- 2:00:50Speaker 2: take out all of their sites from which they can launch.
- 2:00:53Speaker 2: It's one thing to attack bridges and power plants and
- 2:00:56Speaker 2: things like that. Don't keep telling us that their military
- 2:01:03Speaker 2: and their ability to fight back is next to nothing,
- 2:01:06Speaker 2: because clearly they have the ability, They have the ability
- 2:01:08Speaker 2: to attack ships in the Strait, they have the ability
- 2:01:11Speaker 2: to lob missiles all over the Middle East? Why can't
- 2:01:18Speaker 2: we take those out? And I really think part of
- 2:01:20Speaker 2: the equation is is that because Trump, despite what's going
- 2:01:24Speaker 2: on in Iran, Trump does not like war. War is
- 2:01:27Speaker 2: bad for business. And I'm not talking about the military.
- 2:01:30Speaker 2: War is great for the military business, but war is
- 2:01:33Speaker 2: bad for business in general. And there's a lot more
- 2:01:35Speaker 2: business that goes on than just military business. And I
- 2:01:39Speaker 2: really think that we're destroying all kinds of stuff in Iran,
- 2:01:44Speaker 2: and Trump knows that at some point we're going to
- 2:01:46Speaker 2: have to rebuild all that, and I really think that
- 2:01:49Speaker 2: is a major part of the equation for him, that
- 2:01:53Speaker 2: if we can get Iran to go along with us
- 2:01:57Speaker 2: and do what we want them to do, the less
- 2:02:00Speaker 2: we destroy, the less we'll have to pay to rebuild.
- 2:02:05Speaker 2: But the more we destroy, and I think we're at
- 2:02:07Speaker 2: that point now, we're we're going going to have to
- 2:02:09Speaker 2: go in and do a lot more damage than we
- 2:02:13Speaker 2: initially plan to do, and that too will be costly,
- 2:02:17Speaker 2: not only for them but for us. In the end,
- 2:02:19Speaker 2: we got Joey on the line, wants to talk about
- 2:02:21Speaker 2: the mayor. We'll get to Joey's call right after this
- 2:02:23Speaker 2: five one three seven, five hundred, Dan Carroll for Brian Thomas.
- 2:02:27Speaker 2: Fifty five KRCV Talk Station Big fifty five krc the
- 2:02:35Speaker 2: talk station, Dan Carroll for Brian Thomas. Let's go to
- 2:02:40Speaker 2: the phones and say hey to Joey and see what
- 2:02:42Speaker 2: Joey's got on Joey's mind. Joey, you're on fifty five KRC.
- 2:02:47Speaker 6: Hey, good morning.
- 2:02:48Speaker 2: What's going on now?
- 2:02:49Speaker 14: I just wanted to mention the mayor just to shed
- 2:02:53Speaker 14: some light on what type of person that you have
- 2:02:55Speaker 14: in charge of the finances of Cincinnati and making decisions.
- 2:02:59Speaker 14: You know, we've got a guy there, and I hope
- 2:03:01Speaker 14: he's listening. I'm sure he is. He can't even make
- 2:03:04Speaker 14: his car payment. I mean, just how you know responsible?
- 2:03:10Speaker 14: Can you possibly be? Not once, but twice the guy
- 2:03:14Speaker 14: doesn't make his car payment and one time it's towed
- 2:03:17Speaker 14: in front of the front of the courthouse. Folks, think
- 2:03:20Speaker 14: about that. That's the guy that runs your finances that
- 2:03:24Speaker 14: doesn't even make his own car payment.
- 2:03:26Speaker 2: Well, and at the time, and Joey, at the time
- 2:03:28Speaker 2: that story was in the news, the excuse he offered
- 2:03:32Speaker 2: up was, well, it was just an oversight. Look, I mean,
- 2:03:34Speaker 2: you know, we pay all of us. We pay a
- 2:03:36Speaker 2: lot of bills. The notion that one of your bills,
- 2:03:41Speaker 2: if you don't have him an automatic pay, the notion
- 2:03:44Speaker 2: that you can overlook a bill once in a while
- 2:03:46Speaker 2: may make a late payment, whatever the case may be,
- 2:03:49Speaker 2: that is totally plausible. But when it comes to the
- 2:03:51Speaker 2: idea of to the point to where your car gets
- 2:03:55Speaker 2: repote right when you're there's a little bit of a
- 2:04:00Speaker 2: process there. There's a little bit of a time frame.
- 2:04:03Speaker 2: You're not going to be your car is not going
- 2:04:05Speaker 2: to get repolled just because you missed one payment. Maybe yeah, yeah,
- 2:04:11Speaker 2: one doesn't really hold water if you ask me.
- 2:04:15Speaker 14: The guy's just such a pickny look at me, and
- 2:04:18Speaker 14: it's anything he needs to just pack his bag and
- 2:04:21Speaker 14: move to New York. That's where your likeness is, that's
- 2:04:24Speaker 14: where you belong. Go ahead and get out of here
- 2:04:27Speaker 14: and move to New York. Because he lies, he deceits,
- 2:04:29Speaker 14: he ships. It's just so disgusting that that's the type
- 2:04:33Speaker 14: of person that's responsible for the city.
- 2:04:35Speaker 2: My sense of my sense of aftab Purval is that
- 2:04:38Speaker 2: he is actively seeking his next gig, whatever that gig
- 2:04:43Speaker 2: may be, you know, running for the house, running for
- 2:04:45Speaker 2: the Senate. Uh. Maybe there's some office in Ohio that's
- 2:04:49Speaker 2: a little more high profile he can run for.
- 2:04:52Speaker 14: Uh.
- 2:04:52Speaker 2: I mean, this guy, to my way of thinking, has
- 2:04:55Speaker 2: always had higher political aspirations, and I think at this
- 2:04:59Speaker 2: point time he's already got the active search underway looking
- 2:05:05Speaker 2: for something like that. What else is going on? Got
- 2:05:08Speaker 2: to give a shout out to my buddy.
- 2:05:09Speaker 10: Guy?
- 2:05:10Speaker 2: Saw him over the weekend. Always great. I don't see
- 2:05:14Speaker 2: him every weekend, but I saw him this past weekend.
- 2:05:16Speaker 2: Always great to hang out and talk with him, and
- 2:05:19Speaker 2: he told me he's on his way down I believe.
- 2:05:21Speaker 2: He said he's on his way down to Lexington today
- 2:05:23Speaker 2: and he would be listening about this time. I said,
- 2:05:25Speaker 2: I'm gonna be on the radio, man, I'm going to
- 2:05:26Speaker 2: give you a shout out. And he's one of the
- 2:05:30Speaker 2: most sought after welding professionals in all of the tri
- 2:05:34Speaker 2: State and he is going down there to give some
- 2:05:39Speaker 2: examples of his work and artistry, and the folks down
- 2:05:41Speaker 2: there are lucky to have him. So Guy, good morning
- 2:05:44Speaker 2: to you, buddy, and you be careful out there, all right?
- 2:05:48Speaker 2: What else is going on? What else do we have here?
- 2:05:50Speaker 2: I've got I've only got a couple of minutes in
- 2:05:52Speaker 2: this segment, gonna, I'm gonna talk about Brian Stelter, what's
- 2:05:57Speaker 2: on CNN. It's coming out talking about making excuses about
- 2:06:04Speaker 2: why they didn't run the Trump speech on on on
- 2:06:08Speaker 2: Thursday night. And so Brian Stelter, who was their media analyst,
- 2:06:14Speaker 2: insisted ABC and NBC and CNN refused to air the
- 2:06:18Speaker 2: president's speech because they believe in that they want to
- 2:06:23Speaker 2: remain what he called reality based, reality based, which is
- 2:06:29Speaker 2: I don't know if he sat there at his desk
- 2:06:32Speaker 2: trying to think up of a new term, Joe, does
- 2:06:35Speaker 2: that one sounds familiar to you? Saying ABC, CBS and
- 2:06:39Speaker 2: NBC one the main reality based is that's a new spin.
- 2:06:46Speaker 2: And so I've got that clip. I'm gonna I don't
- 2:06:48Speaker 2: have time to play it right now, but I'm gonna
- 2:06:49Speaker 2: play it when when we come back for the from
- 2:06:53Speaker 2: the Break, and it's it's just it's it's all part
- 2:06:56Speaker 2: and parcel of what CNN has been doing for years.
- 2:06:59Speaker 2: They love to refer to themselves as the arbiters of truth,
- 2:07:05Speaker 2: as the ones who are able to divine when it
- 2:07:08Speaker 2: comes to what Trump is talking about, whether or not
- 2:07:11Speaker 2: it's truthful, whether or not it withstands the scrutiny that
- 2:07:16Speaker 2: they can put on it from CNN and acting as
- 2:07:20Speaker 2: if again they are as pure as the wind driven
- 2:07:22Speaker 2: snow in this area when it comes to factual reporting.
- 2:07:27Speaker 2: So we'll hear Stelter has this day after this because
- 2:07:32Speaker 2: the clip is an absolute classic, and we'll get to
- 2:07:35Speaker 2: that after a quick little break here, Dan Carroll for
- 2:07:38Speaker 2: Brian Thomas, fifty five KRCV talk stage. It's summertime and
- 2:07:42Speaker 2: everyone's outside to make sure you fifty five krc the
- 2:07:52Speaker 2: talk station and talking about CNN. And they came on
- 2:07:58Speaker 2: Friday making excuses for why they just you know, I mean,
- 2:08:01Speaker 2: they've got such journalistic integrity that they could not bring
- 2:08:05Speaker 2: themselves to air live the speech of Donald Trump. And
- 2:08:09Speaker 2: they've been down you know, they've been down this road before.
- 2:08:13Speaker 2: They try to present themselves as the ones who have
- 2:08:17Speaker 2: the ability to discern what's true and what's not and
- 2:08:22Speaker 2: the constant stream of lives that come from this president,
- 2:08:25Speaker 2: as they would have you believe. But and Joe, I'm
- 2:08:28Speaker 2: not going to play this whole bite because it's it's
- 2:08:30Speaker 2: two over two minutes long, but I want to give
- 2:08:32Speaker 2: you some of the flavor of what Brian Stelter had
- 2:08:36Speaker 2: to say on CNN. So let's hear that Joe cut
- 2:08:39Speaker 2: number one please.
- 2:08:40Speaker 15: The President went on to say that NBC and ABC
- 2:08:42Speaker 15: should have their broadcast licenses revoked, CNN's chief media analyst,
- 2:08:47Speaker 15: Brian Stelter joining us. Now, it'd be like just added
- 2:08:50Speaker 15: to the list of reasons. He has said that over
- 2:08:52Speaker 15: and over again, Brian. But what are you learning about this?
- 2:08:55Speaker 16: Yes, yes, NBC and ABC did the same thing as
- 2:08:59Speaker 16: this network's last night. The newsrooms monitored the speech, evaluated
- 2:09:03Speaker 16: it was actually newsworthy, looked at the documents Trump was declassifying,
- 2:09:07Speaker 16: and then reported on what happened. NBC and ABC both
- 2:09:11Speaker 16: went on the air with special reports to explain that
- 2:09:14Speaker 16: the speech had happened and to summarize what Trump had said,
- 2:09:16Speaker 16: but most importantly, to contextualize it and fact check it,
- 2:09:19Speaker 16: just as see an End did.
- 2:09:20Speaker 7: Now.
- 2:09:21Speaker 16: Trump was ominously claiming that the networks were part of
- 2:09:23Speaker 16: a plot. But the only real plot here, the only
- 2:09:25Speaker 16: intention is to remain reality based and truth based. Trump
- 2:09:29Speaker 16: selection lies led to violence after the twenty twenty elections.
- 2:09:32Speaker 2: So this is something that really does.
- 2:09:34Speaker 16: Warrant extra care and attention by journalists, and frankly, some
- 2:09:37Speaker 16: network executives felt that it would be dangerous to just
- 2:09:41Speaker 16: air Trump's speech live in full, unedited without knowing what
- 2:09:45Speaker 16: he was going to say.
- 2:09:45Speaker 2: All right, stop right there, stop right there. So here's
- 2:09:48Speaker 2: sus Stelter. Yeah, look, we are so good at our job.
- 2:09:55Speaker 2: And then he says. Executives thought it would be which
- 2:09:58Speaker 2: executives exactly what network executive is going to go and
- 2:10:05Speaker 2: tell his newsroom that you know what the president is
- 2:10:09Speaker 2: going to speak. But I consider this to be dangerous
- 2:10:13Speaker 2: that the American people hear the words of the president
- 2:10:16Speaker 2: without first filtering it through through us. What executives say
- 2:10:24Speaker 2: that what world do they live in where they think
- 2:10:30Speaker 2: that people who want to have access to what the
- 2:10:34Speaker 2: president says, not just Trump but any president who want
- 2:10:37Speaker 2: to have access to what he says. Look, we've got
- 2:10:40Speaker 2: c SPAN out there, You've got Fox News, You've got
- 2:10:44Speaker 2: all kinds of news outlets that are more than happy
- 2:10:51Speaker 2: to play the words of the president. Let the American
- 2:10:55Speaker 2: people decide for themselves and then give your own analysis
- 2:10:59Speaker 2: of what he says. But I don't know, I don't
- 2:11:04Speaker 2: know if if it's reality that CNN has this, they
- 2:11:11Speaker 2: have this perception of the people who watch them that
- 2:11:16Speaker 2: that they're they're so fragile, they're so incapable of discerning
- 2:11:21Speaker 2: for themselves exactly what the president says and what that means. Look,
- 2:11:27Speaker 2: I mean, look, I totally agree with the fact that
- 2:11:30Speaker 2: analysis is necessary, that reporting is necessary, and in many
- 2:11:36Speaker 2: cases fact checking is necessary. But the idea of the
- 2:11:40Speaker 2: notion that you would put out there that unless these
- 2:11:45Speaker 2: people at CNN look at the news, distill the facts
- 2:11:51Speaker 2: contain therein, and then report those facts to you, that
- 2:11:56Speaker 2: that is somehow the only the only means available to
- 2:12:01Speaker 2: them of responsible journalists is absolutely laughable. And everything this
- 2:12:07Speaker 2: guy says is absolutely laughable. How many times has CNN
- 2:12:12Speaker 2: been wrong? How about Russia collusion? I mean they how
- 2:12:18Speaker 2: long did they push this completely debunked narrative many How
- 2:12:23Speaker 2: much time did they spend on Russia, Russia Russia? I mean,
- 2:12:28Speaker 2: you remember the compilations that were put together, and you
- 2:12:32Speaker 2: heard them talk about Russia, Russia, Russia, completely wrong, completely false.
- 2:12:36Speaker 2: But yet for CNN and MSNBC, it was a constant drumbeat,
- 2:12:41Speaker 2: night after night, day after day. Sometimes it was the
- 2:12:45Speaker 2: only thing they talked about. In the span of a
- 2:12:48Speaker 2: twenty four hour news cycle, Russia, Russia, Russia, Trump collusion
- 2:12:53Speaker 2: with Russia, all the rest of it. What about the
- 2:12:57Speaker 2: Hunter Biden laptop? Completely wrong? CNN spent months downplaying and
- 2:13:03Speaker 2: dismissing the relevancy of the Hunter Biden laptop, which we
- 2:13:08Speaker 2: all know has been confirmed as authentic by the Washington Post,
- 2:13:13Speaker 2: by the New York Times. That list goes on and on,
- 2:13:18Speaker 2: And we also know at the time when the issue
- 2:13:23Speaker 2: of the laptop came to light, that we knew the
- 2:13:26Speaker 2: Biden administration knew that it was authentic, and the Biden
- 2:13:31Speaker 2: administration took steps the steps that it could to keep
- 2:13:36Speaker 2: that information buried and hidden away from the American people,
- 2:13:42Speaker 2: much like they did with a lot of the twenty
- 2:13:44Speaker 2: twenty stuff when it comes to the election, that there
- 2:13:49Speaker 2: were investigations by the FBI, all kinds of paperwork done
- 2:13:54Speaker 2: out there, all kinds of investigations done by Department of
- 2:13:57Speaker 2: Homeland Security of evidence, all kinds of indicators of fraud.
- 2:14:02Speaker 2: But what did they choose to do? They chose to
- 2:14:04Speaker 2: keep it buried away. Where was CNN being so intrepid
- 2:14:09Speaker 2: on that and trying to look that up. Let's go
- 2:14:14Speaker 2: back to twenty twenty. Who remembers the Nick Sandman situation.
- 2:14:20Speaker 2: CNN had to settle a multi million dollar defamation lawsuit
- 2:14:24Speaker 2: filed by COBCAF high schooler Nick Salmon over the network's
- 2:14:29Speaker 2: inaccurate coverage of a viral competition with the Native American
- 2:14:34Speaker 2: elder that had portrayed Nick Salmon as the aggressor in
- 2:14:39Speaker 2: that The two hundred and fifty million dollar lawsuit was
- 2:14:45Speaker 2: settled for an undisclosed amount. But you know it had
- 2:14:49Speaker 2: to if they sued for two fifty that settlement had
- 2:14:54Speaker 2: to be in the hundreds of million had to be.
- 2:14:56Speaker 2: It had to be over one hundred million dollar. Of course,
- 2:15:00Speaker 2: we may never know the actual amount. But this notion
- 2:15:05Speaker 2: that CNN and Stelter are the ones who can look again,
- 2:15:10Speaker 2: look at any situation and report to you accurately. And
- 2:15:13Speaker 2: this I could, I could do. We've got fourteen earlier
- 2:15:18Speaker 2: or less about ten or twelve minutes left of showtime today.
- 2:15:22Speaker 2: I could, I could. I could spend the rest of
- 2:15:24Speaker 2: that half the show tomorrow reading and telling you about
- 2:15:28Speaker 2: stories that CNN has reported wrong over the years, and
- 2:15:31Speaker 2: not just as they relate to Trump, and any number
- 2:15:36Speaker 2: any number of stories, any number of subjects and topics
- 2:15:41Speaker 2: they misrepresented, Ivermectin and Joe Rogan. A variety of CNN
- 2:15:48Speaker 2: pundits and hosts accused podcasting giant Joe Rogan of taking
- 2:15:51Speaker 2: horse d wormer. Remember that when I guess Joe Rogan
- 2:15:56Speaker 2: got a little dose of the wuhan decided that he
- 2:15:59Speaker 2: was going to take some ivermet and talked about it
- 2:16:01Speaker 2: openly on his podcast, and they attacked him for that.
- 2:16:07Speaker 2: They were completely wrong about that. CNN. What about the
- 2:16:10Speaker 2: Jessee Smallett the fake thing there where he claimed he
- 2:16:15Speaker 2: was attacked by Mega supporters at two o'clock in the
- 2:16:19Speaker 2: morning in Chicago out to get a subway sandwich. I
- 2:16:28Speaker 2: don't know. I think it was later discovered that a
- 2:16:31Speaker 2: subway in Chicago in that area wasn't even open at
- 2:16:34Speaker 2: that time. I don't know how many subways are open
- 2:16:36Speaker 2: at two o'clock in the morning anywhere. But for Brian
- 2:16:39Speaker 2: Stelter to go on and talk about you how his
- 2:16:44Speaker 2: his network and others choose to act responsibly in the
- 2:16:50Speaker 2: face of this president is an absolute joke that somehow
- 2:16:56Speaker 2: they are the ones who are able to ride accurate information.
- 2:17:01Speaker 2: What a clown this guy is. It is eight forty
- 2:17:04Speaker 2: seven We've got to get to a break. Dan Carroll
- 2:17:06Speaker 2: for Brian Thomas, fifty five krc V talk station.
- 2:17:10Speaker 9: Gas price Cities growth by price as a.
- 2:17:12Speaker 2: Cost the Deep talk Station. Just a few minutes left here,
- 2:17:20Speaker 2: so it's time for me to go. Glenn Beck coming
- 2:17:22Speaker 2: up at at nine o'clock, so hope you stick around
- 2:17:25Speaker 2: for that. I will be back tomorrow morning and always
- 2:17:28Speaker 2: looking forward to day too of sitting in for Brian Thomas.
- 2:17:31Speaker 2: CBS had a busy morning show on Sunday. Margaret Brennan
- 2:17:36Speaker 2: had Borders Are Tom Homan in on Face the Nation,
- 2:17:40Speaker 2: and boy, she was gonna go after him hard on
- 2:17:44Speaker 2: all these terrible things that ICE is doing. And Tom Homan,
- 2:17:47Speaker 2: as usual, was able to handle it quite nicely. Let's
- 2:17:51Speaker 2: hear cutting number four Joe.
- 2:17:52Speaker 1: For my concern is, I think a lot of the
- 2:17:54Speaker 1: rhetoric that you see every day, especially in sanctuary cities
- 2:17:58Speaker 1: and at these protests that reason members of Congress saying
- 2:18:02Speaker 1: ICE isn't a real law enforce the agency. I think
- 2:18:05Speaker 1: that I actually think that emboldens some people say I'm
- 2:18:09Speaker 1: not gonna comply with ICE. And I think no matter
- 2:18:11Speaker 1: what people think of no matter what you think of
- 2:18:14Speaker 1: the immigration law. You should always comply with law.
- 2:18:17Speaker 13: Yes, yes, But in the shootings in both Houston and
- 2:18:20Speaker 13: main the people who were killed were not the intended targets.
- 2:18:23Speaker 13: Have you called the people you're actually looking for.
- 2:18:26Speaker 1: One of my I believe we did. But you know
- 2:18:28Speaker 1: that happens law enforcement all the time. I mean, we're working,
- 2:18:31Speaker 1: you know, we get leads on individuals and you say, okay, well,
- 2:18:34Speaker 1: this subject lives at this house, he drives his car.
- 2:18:37Speaker 1: And when that subject leaves that house, you know, six
- 2:18:40Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning, and someone gets in that car
- 2:18:42Speaker 1: from that house, you know, they assume, okay, this I
- 2:18:45Speaker 1: guid and they'll do a vehicle stop and depending on
- 2:18:48Speaker 1: when they make that stop and that person complies, either
- 2:18:51Speaker 1: they're going to be arrested or release. That's the way
- 2:18:53Speaker 1: it's supposed to be. So, you know, law enforcement deals
- 2:18:56Speaker 1: with misidentity every day across the country, not just ice
- 2:19:00Speaker 1: every lawnforce Sacy, I was a cop. I know that happens.
- 2:19:03Speaker 13: Yeah, but these were fatal shootings, of course, in Houston
- 2:19:07Speaker 13: and in Maine. In Houston, it was an unmarked car.
- 2:19:10Speaker 13: So when you're saying, don't resist these individuals who weren't
- 2:19:15Speaker 13: chasing the man who died. They didn't have markings on
- 2:19:20Speaker 13: that vehicle that would allow for him to know that
- 2:19:23Speaker 13: they were ICE. It just looked like a car coming
- 2:19:27Speaker 13: after them.
- 2:19:27Speaker 14: In the videos.
- 2:19:29Speaker 1: No, they have emergency lights. Officers have insignia, so when
- 2:19:33Speaker 1: they get that car and pros the car, you can
- 2:19:34Speaker 1: clearly see the law enforcement officers.
- 2:19:36Speaker 2: You can clearly see their law enforcement officers. I have
- 2:19:41Speaker 2: yet to see a video or any evidence at all
- 2:19:47Speaker 2: that those who are those ICE agents that are out
- 2:19:52Speaker 2: there looking to round up illegal aliens are not wearing
- 2:19:58Speaker 2: a uniform of any kind. You've either got you know,
- 2:20:02Speaker 2: you got the you got, They've got the vests on
- 2:20:04Speaker 2: a lot of times, they got the hats. Uh. Sometimes
- 2:20:07Speaker 2: they have the say of the face coverings because of
- 2:20:09Speaker 2: all the docksing that is going on. But the notion
- 2:20:14Speaker 2: to suggest that these individuals resisted because they didn't know
- 2:20:21Speaker 2: they were law enforcement. And it doesn't matter local law
- 2:20:24Speaker 2: enforcement federal law enforcement. When you are engaged with law enforcement,
- 2:20:32Speaker 2: you comply, you don't run, you don't fight, you don't
- 2:20:36Speaker 2: try to run them over with your car. Oh, we
- 2:20:39Speaker 2: had an incident where I guess there was four or
- 2:20:42Speaker 2: five individuals that were being rounded up, and one dude
- 2:20:46Speaker 2: ran ran out into the street and then got hit
- 2:20:48Speaker 2: by a big rig. And wouldn't it be ironic if
- 2:20:51Speaker 2: that big rig was being driven by another illegal alien?
- 2:20:56Speaker 2: And look, I mean, the guy's dead. I shouldn't be
- 2:20:59Speaker 2: laughing about it. I guess he's running from ice officers,
- 2:21:05Speaker 2: and you know it, runs out in front of a
- 2:21:07Speaker 2: truck and gets killed. And I guess somehow that's that's
- 2:21:11Speaker 2: Trump's fault two. But I don't know. We'll see what
- 2:21:14Speaker 2: the investigation shows on that. Uh, that is it for me.
- 2:21:17Speaker 2: I got to get out of here. Joe, thank you
- 2:21:20Speaker 2: for everything, and I am looking forward to seeing you tomorrow,
- 2:21:24Speaker 2: and I hope you can be here tomorrow as well.
- 2:21:27Speaker 2: So until then, have yourself a great day, a great Monday,
- 2:21:30Speaker 2: and we will see you Tuesday morning, bright and early
- 2:21:32Speaker 2: at five am.
