0:12
Speaker 2: Joe Thomas, the second most famous Thomas in Charlottesville, George.
0:17
Speaker 3: Said, steal me Stem. You have a day at least
0:22
Speaker 3: for work. When the sun comes up drops at the school.
0:27
Speaker 3: Jo has everything agenda on the chess set and needs.
0:32
Speaker 4: No one that Joe's smile. He only ex.
0:39
Speaker 5: Jae, thank you for letting us be of service to
0:41
Speaker 5: you this morning. I want to be already challenging sacred
0:47
Speaker 5: cows faster than some radio host in Mumbai four three
0:51
Speaker 5: four eight eight what no too late? Four three four
0:56
Speaker 5: eight eight two four two one seven. That's how you
0:59
Speaker 5: do it for your protection, because quite honestly, some of
1:03
Speaker 5: these folks take things a little personally. If you know
1:06
Speaker 5: what I'm saying, you can text message me there, email
1:10
Speaker 5: JT in the morning radio at gmail dot com, or
1:15
Speaker 5: use that phone number for the traditional purpose of having
1:18
Speaker 5: a conversation their Kareem. A couple of text messages on
1:22
Speaker 5: the phone call we had with Kareem and the US
1:24
Speaker 5: Postal Service deal signing a ten billion dollar agreement to
1:29
Speaker 5: deliver DHL packages, probably right after the deal, right after
1:35
Speaker 5: the letter carriers are finished delivering the Amazon packages they're
1:38
Speaker 5: also contractually obligated to carry, and then you know, if
1:42
Speaker 5: there's time left, they'll deliver your traditional mail. Marcus writes
1:47
Speaker 5: in Hold It Joe, Lots of aid programs send their
1:51
Speaker 5: checks to needy Virginian's. Marcus is living in Virginia, but
1:57
Speaker 5: I'm sure they come to needy Coloraden's and Californians and
2:02
Speaker 5: Floridians as well through the US mail. If they stopped coming,
2:07
Speaker 5: these poor people would not be able to get their checks,
2:11
Speaker 5: you mean, Marcus, in the same way that poor people
2:13
Speaker 5: wouldn't be able to prove their identity to Is that
2:16
Speaker 5: kind of what you're saying and by poor people? And
2:19
Speaker 5: I'm not picking on you personally, Marcus, I'm just saying
2:22
Speaker 5: you've opened up a period of this discussion. What is
2:26
Speaker 5: the priority of the United States Postal Service? Is it
2:30
Speaker 5: delivering your snap card to you? Andy has already said
2:36
Speaker 5: his electric bills are getting delayed, and perhaps you know,
2:40
Speaker 5: beyond the fact of where he'll be and those things,
2:43
Speaker 5: if your bills are delayed impact your credit score, which,
2:47
Speaker 5: by the way, somewhere in the last ten years have
2:51
Speaker 5: become permissible to use in apartment renting as well. So
2:55
Speaker 5: don't think your credit score doesn't matter just because you
2:58
Speaker 5: don't plan to buy a house. Our first things on
3:02
Speaker 5: this Friday morning, so much to get into. Yes, the
3:05
Speaker 5: US Postal Services entered into a ten billion dollar contract
3:09
Speaker 5: to deliver packages for DHL. US and Iranian negotiators have
3:16
Speaker 5: set a tentative agreement to extend the ceasefire sixty more
3:20
Speaker 5: days to allow for more rounds of talks regarding the
3:24
Speaker 5: nuclear program and the Strait of Horne MOVEZ. Vice President
3:28
Speaker 5: JD Vance Thursday evening confirmed there was a tendative agreement,
3:33
Speaker 5: but said quote, it's hard to say exactly when or
3:36
Speaker 5: if the President's going to sign it. Israel's air force
3:41
Speaker 5: carried out an airstrike in the southern suburbs of Beirute
3:45
Speaker 5: Thursday afternoon, straining the ceasefire there. The strike hit an
3:51
Speaker 5: apartment building, but the target of the attack wasn't immediately clear.
3:55
Speaker 5: It was near Beyroots International Airport. Russian President Vladimir Putin
4:03
Speaker 5: appears to have put together plans to ramp up quote
4:07
Speaker 5: consistent and systematic missile strikes against Kiev in an attempt
4:14
Speaker 5: to finally put an end to the five year war
4:18
Speaker 5: that was only supposed to take a couple of weeks.
4:21
Speaker 5: Democratic Governor Gretchen whitmer backwalked a statement that she said
4:27
Speaker 5: she wasn't going to run for president in twenty twenty eight,
4:32
Speaker 5: and told a crowd at the Macinac Policy Conference, you know,
4:36
Speaker 5: I never thought I would run for governor, so I
4:38
Speaker 5: guess I should know better than to say anything about it.
4:42
Speaker 5: Never say never. Meanwhile, a poll don by Atlas Intel
4:47
Speaker 5: considered one of the more accurate pollsters. That's like saying
4:51
Speaker 5: you're one of the better dancing guys named Joe Thomas.
4:56
Speaker 5: Representative Alexandra Accassio Cortes is listed a the front runner,
5:01
Speaker 5: now leading a field that includes Pete Budages, who finishes
5:05
Speaker 5: second and Gavin Newsom, who finishes third. A distant fourth
5:10
Speaker 5: with only twelve percent of the support, is former Vice
5:13
Speaker 5: President Kamala Harris. A destrict judge rejected a request by
5:19
Speaker 5: Democrats and civil rights groups to block President Trump's executive
5:23
Speaker 5: order creating federal voter lists and limiting mail in voting,
5:28
Speaker 5: arguing that the Trump's administration order would likely be found unconstitutional.
5:34
Speaker 5: The judge, Carl Nichols said he can't block it because
5:37
Speaker 5: it hasn't taken effect yet, and I'm sure you're gonna
5:40
Speaker 5: want tickets for this. Bruce Springsteen, Foo Fighters, and Dave Matthews,
5:44
Speaker 5: along with Joe Biaz will have an anti Trump administration
5:49
Speaker 5: concert a month before the midterms.
5:51
Speaker 6: Every state is home to significant historic sites that tell
5:54
Speaker 6: the American story, but not every site is telling that
5:57
Speaker 6: story honestly and fairly. That's why the Heritage Foundation created
6:02
Speaker 6: the Heritage Guide to Historic Sites. This interactive guide equips
6:06
Speaker 6: American citizens with the tools they need to enjoy the
6:10
Speaker 6: sites that depict some of the greatest moments in our
6:12
Speaker 6: nation's history, analyzing them for historical accuracy, and provides resources
6:18
Speaker 6: for families or educators planning a visit. It currently covers
6:22
Speaker 6: over forty five sites in the thirteen original colonies, but
6:25
Speaker 6: sites from all fifty states will be added in time
6:28
Speaker 6: for citizens to celebrate America to fifty this summer. From
6:32
Speaker 6: Mount Vernon to Independence Hall to Gettysburg and more. Americans
6:36
Speaker 6: deserve transparency, and sites that steward our history faithfully deserve
6:41
Speaker 6: our gratitude. The Heritage Guide to Historic Sites invites every
6:45
Speaker 6: American to rediscover the places and stories that define our nation,

Speaker 9: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
8:08
Speaker 9: actually three known gases. I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric oxide
8:14
Speaker 9: is a gas that's readily made all day long to
8:18
Speaker 9: keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
8:23
Speaker 9: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
8:28
Speaker 9: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
8:32
Speaker 9: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
8:36
Speaker 9: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
8:39
Speaker 9: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
8:42
Speaker 9: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate nitric Oxide,

11:20
Speaker 13: in between jobs and sometimes goes to bed hungry so
11:23
Speaker 13: her kids can have dinner. Or a fourteen year old
11:26
Speaker 13: girl who signs up to every after school activity not
11:29
Speaker 13: to make friends, but just to get something to eat.
11:33

11:36
Speaker 13: between getting medicine or groceries. I am the one in

12:46
Speaker 17: If you see a buzzed warning sign, call for a

12:56
Speaker 5: It's on.
13:11

13:14
Speaker 2: didn't cost anything in the first place, so let's say
13:17
Speaker 2: one million dollars. I'm calledy first thing today by Joe
13:24
Speaker 2: Thomas on the Tunk Media Network.
13:30
Speaker 5: Gotta love a place where Governor Lapenamin of California says
13:34
Speaker 5: he's going to impose a one hundred percent tax on
13:37
Speaker 5: any money paid to Californians who have been found to
13:42
Speaker 5: have been victims of government weaponization. I'm not sure what
13:47
Speaker 5: tone deaf sounds like, but I'm pretty sure it sounds
13:50
Speaker 5: like that way to help people decide whether to vote
13:54
Speaker 5: for Democrats or Republicans in the open jungle gubernatorial race
14:00
Speaker 5: coming up. I'm sure I'm sure both Republicans in the
14:05
Speaker 5: field are appreciating the bump in support for saying the
14:08
Speaker 5: quiet part out loud. Get to your phone calls at
14:12
Speaker 5: four three four eight eight two four two one seven.
14:15
Speaker 5: A lot of folks reacting to this story of the
14:18
Speaker 5: Postal Service signing a deal to deliver packages for DHL.
14:22
Speaker 5: We'll get into some of your texts and emails about
14:25
Speaker 5: that as well. James Luck from jcsgold dot com, an
14:29
Speaker 5: organization that uses delivery services quite a bit to get
14:33
Speaker 5: your physical stuff to you, whether it be commemorative or
14:38
Speaker 5: just straight up bars of silver and gold delivered to you.
14:42
Speaker 5: Good morning, James, How are you, sir?
14:45
Speaker 4: I'm Joe wal Joe. And that's a good point about
14:47
Speaker 4: the shipping.
14:48
Speaker 21: All of our items go out with their third party insurance,
14:51
Speaker 21: so and signature required upon delivery, so you can feel
14:54
Speaker 21: safe while you're your gold or silver is in the
14:57
Speaker 21: mail to you.
14:58
Speaker 5: That's a that's a great point. Never thought to ask that,
15:01
Speaker 5: but shows you what I know, just dangerous enough to
15:05
Speaker 5: not be allowed to pick up the sharp implements. So
15:07
Speaker 5: what is going on in the gold and silver markets
15:10
Speaker 5: this morning, James?
15:12
Speaker 4: Golden silver reclaimed some key levels.
15:14
Speaker 21: Yesterday gold popped back up above forty five hundred dollars.
15:18
Speaker 21: It's currently up about a little bit over half of
15:20
Speaker 21: a percent, up thirty dollars to four thousand, five hundred
15:23
Speaker 21: and twenty six. Silver got back up above seventy five
15:28
Speaker 21: currently down a quarter of a percent, kind of just
15:31
Speaker 21: below even there, but it's at seventy five dollars and
15:34
Speaker 21: forty nine cents, so back above seventy five, which is
15:38
Speaker 21: great to see for silver.
15:39
Speaker 5: And you know, when folks go online, I know you
15:43
Speaker 5: have your ad or below spot on some of the
15:46
Speaker 5: items you have available at jcsgold dot com. You know
15:53
Speaker 5: you can when you deliver this stuff. It's not like
15:56
Speaker 5: this guy that was caught in northern Virginia with you know,
15:59
Speaker 5: forty million dollars in gold bars in their storage locker.
16:03
Speaker 5: Everything is as you said, secured and and you know,
16:07
Speaker 5: I guess that means you know, a third party when
16:10
Speaker 5: when you say that, is it like UPS or FedEx
16:13
Speaker 5: or or or somebody like that.
16:17
Speaker 21: Yeah, so we shipped through USPS ok, but we we
16:20
Speaker 21: have we have a totally third party insurance company that
16:23
Speaker 21: we use, uh that ensures every package that goes out
16:26
Speaker 21: to make sure that if there is any problems, uh
16:29
Speaker 21: in travel or delivery, that that we're covered. So that
16:33
Speaker 21: protects the customer and and us, which is has worked
16:36
Speaker 21: out really well in the past.
16:37
Speaker 5: And this is again indicative of a family business who
16:40
Speaker 5: gets it because I'm sure at some point or another
16:43
Speaker 5: somebody has called and said, hey, how come you haven't
16:45
Speaker 5: paid your cell phone bill which hadn't arrived in the mail,
16:49
Speaker 5: uh there, which has happened to so many people, especially
16:53
Speaker 5: in central Virginia. I know the Richmond Virginia. You know,
16:57
Speaker 5: postal Hub has had just an off full time of
17:01
Speaker 5: getting staff and keeping staff and things like that, So
17:04
Speaker 5: it is it is something to you know, make sure
17:07
Speaker 5: that you're ensuring this kind of stuff very important, James.
17:10
Speaker 5: And why a family business not a call center that
17:13
Speaker 5: might not take this kind of thing at heart, just
17:16
Speaker 5: saying is important to you, sir. I hope you have
17:20
Speaker 5: a great weekend planned, yeah, Joe, you know.
17:24
Speaker 4: And actually that's a funny part about the shipping.
17:26
Speaker 21: Most of the time it's not any anything malicious either.
17:30
Speaker 21: Usually the package we you know, follow acclaim and they
17:34
Speaker 21: do an investigation and we find out that the package
17:36
Speaker 21: just fell on the ground and it was just sitting
17:38
Speaker 21: there in the corner and no one ever picked it up.
17:41
Speaker 5: Man. You know, this is why I always say to people,
17:44
Speaker 5: as much as we like to, you know, bathe in
17:46
Speaker 5: the conspiracy. Most of the time, it's been my experience
17:50
Speaker 5: that the mundane is usually closer to where the answer is, oh, yeah,
17:55
Speaker 5: you mean that package over there. I was waiting for
17:57
Speaker 5: Bob to do something with that, and Bob's waiting for
18:00
Speaker 5: Phil to do something with it, and nobody ever does
18:03
Speaker 5: anything with it. It's good stuff. And thank you for
18:06
Speaker 5: sharing that info. James, you have a wonderful weekend.
18:09
Speaker 4: Sir, thanks show you too.

Speaker 19: rockful owners. Is she going to walk that back?
19:21

19:24
Speaker 5: is he mixing her up?
19:25
Speaker 19: Change the names to protect somebody but the same person, Joe. Okay, Okay,
19:32
Speaker 19: let's see Bruce Springfield is going to have a concert.
19:37
Speaker 19: Where's this gathering in communists and out it is going
19:39
Speaker 19: to take place?
19:41
Speaker 5: Let me see here Springsteen and Tom Morello from Rage
19:45
Speaker 5: Against the Machine, which was a cool name when he
19:48
Speaker 5: was twenty. Now he's like fifty five, so it's not
19:50
Speaker 5: so much tough tough to have gray hair on stage
19:54
Speaker 5: when you're fronting Rage against the Machine, unless it's a
19:58
Speaker 5: Sea Path machine. I have no people raged. It's I
20:03
Speaker 5: know they announced it yesterday at Nationals Park. No, No, okay,
20:10
Speaker 5: it's no. It's going to be at Washington Nationals Park
20:14
Speaker 5: in Washington, d C. That's where the show is going
20:17
Speaker 5: to be with Joan Biez is going to get a
20:20
Speaker 5: pass from the home Dave Matthews, who retired ten years ago,
20:25
Speaker 5: and I'm not sure what that meant, but I'm sure
20:28
Speaker 5: it was something legal about getting out of some contracts.
20:31
Speaker 5: But it's still out there touring like Crazy Food Fighters
20:36
Speaker 5: and Bruce Springstein.
20:37
Speaker 19: Yes, Springfield, but anyway, Bruce Springfield calling that every time
20:46
Speaker 19: Joe Okay, he particularly dislikes that I didn't know that.
20:55
Speaker 19: Oh yeah, I gets under his skin. Well fair, It
21:00
Speaker 19: just shows that I ain't going to take the time
21:02
Speaker 19: to know who he really is.
21:04
Speaker 5: But whatever happened to whatever happened to that wonderful Michael
21:07
Speaker 5: Jordan world of even Republicans by sneakers, I mean, you know,
21:11
Speaker 5: at what point are you know? And bless them, it's
21:14
Speaker 5: their free right to burn their capital if they want to.
21:17
Speaker 5: They've poured gasoline on the on their pile of money,
21:20
Speaker 5: and like Heath Ledger and Batman, he they've thrown their
21:23
Speaker 5: cigar on it and they're only burning their half. But
21:28
Speaker 5: I don't know. I mean, there are people Springsteen has
21:31
Speaker 5: a record label. If you're invested, if your four oh
21:36
Speaker 5: one k is invested in, I think it's Columbia, right.
21:39
Speaker 5: We should probably find out before we disparage. But you know,
21:43
Speaker 5: you know, these are often publicly traded companies that wind
21:47
Speaker 5: up bearing the brunt of this, you know, you know,
21:51
Speaker 5: arrogance of the performers saying hey, I don't want you
21:54
Speaker 5: to come to my movie or I don't want you
21:56
Speaker 5: to buy my album and it's hurting you know the
22:00
Speaker 5: businesses they work.

22:13
Speaker 22: that one hundred and fifty minutes does not need to
22:15
Speaker 22: be super intense. As a matter of fact, it could
22:18
Speaker 22: just be you moving your body and doing what you
22:20
Speaker 22: already love to do, like exercise. And a stronger heart

28:33
Speaker 30: What sure we want to get under Bruce's skin?
28:49
Speaker 5: Play this on the radio too, you know, apparently the
28:56
Speaker 5: biopic and everything else he is is and I don't
29:02
Speaker 5: blame him. We were talking earlier about, you know, the
29:05
Speaker 5: snowflakes and the cancel culture and everything else, you know,
29:09
Speaker 5: little image conscious because at some point, Born to Run
29:14
Speaker 5: is all anyone wants to hear you play, and so
29:19
Speaker 5: your reputation is all you've got. And that's how you know,
29:24
Speaker 5: most of us don't have a hit record to our
29:27
Speaker 5: credit or an Oscar winning movie. And the shame of
29:31
Speaker 5: it all is that we define people at that point
29:35
Speaker 5: by that that becomes the sum total of it.
29:39
Speaker 19: Clark, right, Carlin had a thing about if your ideology
29:43
Speaker 19: becomes your identity, you scrigged yourself.
29:46
Speaker 5: Which is a funny thing considering how many people viewed
29:49
Speaker 5: George Carlin. But he ran hot and cold on things.
29:53
Speaker 5: I mean, he didn't like guys like Donald Trump, but
29:56
Speaker 5: I don't think he liked anyone who held any government official.
29:59
Speaker 5: George car Arlyn could walk into the room as governor
30:02
Speaker 5: of New York and George Carlin would tell him to go,
30:04
Speaker 5: you know what himself.
30:06
Speaker 19: Well, let's talk about Donald Trump for just a minute.
30:09
Speaker 19: Do you have grandkids yet, Joe? Now I have grandkids,
30:14
Speaker 19: and God blessed Donald Trump, because my grandkids are going
30:19
Speaker 19: to grow up in a country that dominates the planet
30:23
Speaker 19: and energy production now thanks to Donald Trump. And you
30:28
Speaker 19: know what, before long, Joe, we're going to dominate the
30:32
Speaker 19: planet in ship production. We will have that technology. We're
30:37
Speaker 19: pulling it back. We're not going to be a third world.
30:45
Speaker 19: We're going to remain the top dog. Probably they're going
30:51
Speaker 19: to grow up in a time where we see a
30:54
Speaker 19: boom in our economy comparable to the sixties.
31:00
Speaker 13: Hm.
31:00
Speaker 22: Hm.
31:02
Speaker 5: I hope they don't grow up in a world like
31:04
Speaker 5: the sixties where that boom is turned into a bust
31:07
Speaker 5: of the seventies full of activists who are like, oh,
31:10
Speaker 5: it's a greedy profit.
31:14
Speaker 19: You can find where that came from. Spent more money
31:19
Speaker 19: on the Vietnam War on our college campuses than they
31:23
Speaker 19: ever did in PanAm Pen.
31:25
Speaker 5: Yep, that's true. Here's the question though, and this is
31:29
Speaker 5: what I aspirationally because I believe Donald Trump is doing
31:34
Speaker 5: his level best to protect my grandchildren, my unborn grandchildren's
31:39
Speaker 5: tax money, because they're going to be the ones who
31:41
Speaker 5: have to pay for most everything that Joe Biden and
31:45
Speaker 5: Barack Obama did. But I also want the United States
31:50
Speaker 5: to dominate in the world in the example of what
31:53
Speaker 5: a free market, free country can do when achieve so
31:58
Speaker 5: that more people say, hey, I want that, because right now,
32:03
Speaker 5: you know, the way we behave is first off Cronius,
32:07
Speaker 5: so it's not even a good example, but you know
32:10
Speaker 5: that's what I want us to dominate the world in
32:13
Speaker 5: as well.
32:14
Speaker 19: Clark, Let's look at that for just a second. You know, internally,
32:19
Speaker 19: our problem because it has turned into us versus them.
32:23
Speaker 19: We're way too many of us has been them. But
32:26
Speaker 19: Donald Trump is getting rid of the them that call
32:29
Speaker 19: themselves us.
32:32
Speaker 5: And them is called I know that, you know that,
32:35
Speaker 5: I know that you know Okay, Well, I think I
32:37
Speaker 5: followed you on that. Okay, when all of.
32:39
Speaker 19: Us becomes us, US is going to do pretty good.
32:42
Speaker 19: You will do pretty good when them aren't us anymore?
32:48
Speaker 5: Well said, well said, you have a great morning, sir.
32:52
Speaker 19: Keep after it.
32:55
Speaker 4: I don't know what they have to say.
32:57
Speaker 9: It makes no difference anyway, whatever I'm against them, what
33:02
Speaker 9: about it is or.
33:03
Speaker 13: Who commenced it?
33:06
Speaker 5: So you know, depending on what kind of Marxist you are,
33:09
Speaker 5: carl or Graucho, Gavin Newsom falls probably into both categories.
33:14
Speaker 5: He's going to levy a one tax on anyone in
33:18
Speaker 5: California that taps into the one point eight billion dollar
33:23
Speaker 5: Weaponization of Government Settlement Fund. And I thought this was
33:29
Speaker 5: interesting because what happens if Gavin Newsom decides he's the
33:35
Speaker 5: victim of some kind of government. See, this is the
33:39
Speaker 5: problem with being ideologues, because he thinks that this fund
33:47
Speaker 5: is just about J six and not about any instance
33:55
Speaker 5: where somebody feels like the government has been weaponized against them. Now,
33:59
Speaker 5: I have my own qualms with this fund and how
34:02
Speaker 5: it's established, because I think there's way too much ambiguity
34:08
Speaker 5: in the idea of any time that you decide that
34:12
Speaker 5: the government has been weaponized against you. You can tap
34:16
Speaker 5: into this pile of money, because number one, it's hard
34:24
Speaker 5: to pin down if you don't have some specificity on
34:27
Speaker 5: what that means and how you can prove it. But
34:30
Speaker 5: even if you did that, the government is just going
34:34
Speaker 5: to get better at obfuscating that that behavior, which would
34:44
Speaker 5: render them guilty under this statue.
34:50
Speaker 29: Who doesn't believe in fair, free elections. He believes in
34:52
Speaker 29: competitive authoritarianism.
34:54
Speaker 5: Competitive authority. I like that. You know, there's at least
34:57
Speaker 5: a little bit of gavenuseom I appreciate in the fact
35:00
Speaker 5: that if he turns around the big white letters gov
35:03
Speaker 5: Or on his jacket and he invents things like competitive authoritarianism,
35:09
Speaker 5: does that mean he's competing with you, Gavin for authoritarianism.
35:13
Speaker 29: Try to light democracy on fire. Try to wreck this
35:15
Speaker 29: country after January sixth.
35:18
Speaker 5: Try to light this country on fire after January sixth,
35:21
Speaker 5: you will. Let's unpack that again, because we have to
35:27
Speaker 5: be the debunkers, like a big basketball bouncing down the hallway. Debunk, Debunk, Debunk, debunk, debunk.
35:39
Speaker 5: January sixth, prior to twenty twenty two was the dates
35:43
Speaker 5: that the Senate would be presented with the results of
35:49
Speaker 5: the Electoral College, a vestige of a constitution that, by
36:00
Speaker 5: its doctrine, the Senators would already be the representatives of
36:07
Speaker 5: the several states, not of the people. These were not
36:11
Speaker 5: elected officials at the time. So the states would present
36:18
Speaker 5: the Senators with their electoral results, and I believe, if
36:21
Speaker 5: I'm not mistaken, the senators themselves would bring those electoral
36:25
Speaker 5: results to the chamber, and then other Senators would be
36:30
Speaker 5: able to file protests against some of those results, asking
36:36
Speaker 5: for investigations into the veracity of those election results. And
36:42
Speaker 5: this process has been there baked into the cake even
36:46
Speaker 5: before William Randolph Hurst Mark Zuckerberg of the twentieth century
36:53
Speaker 5: managed to convince the American populace that they needed a
36:58
Speaker 5: branch of super panderers in the Senate in two thousand,
37:08
Speaker 5: go look at all the people who challenge the results
37:11
Speaker 5: state by state. You know, maybe we should do that.
37:15
Speaker 5: We have a little time after we come back from
37:17
Speaker 5: break right. Nothing big happening though, like deal with Iran
37:20
Speaker 5: or anything like that. Since Gavin Newsom has bent about
37:25
Speaker 5: people who were taken to jail for years and years
37:29
Speaker 5: without ever seeing the inside of a courtroom or family members.
37:34
Speaker 5: I guess He's okay with that. Probably happens if you're
37:37
Speaker 5: listening to us on KA Hi and Sacramento or km
37:42
Speaker 5: E T and San Bernardino. You tell me, does Gavin
37:46
Speaker 5: Newsom lock people up for years without ever being able
37:49
Speaker 5: to see their attorney or family members or the inside.
37:52
Speaker 4: Of a courtroom?
37:53
Speaker 5: Is that? Why? Is that what he means when he
37:55
Speaker 5: talks about competitive authoritarianism? Refines.

Speaker 1: Hybody Jack Hannah and It's always a boy. Growing up
41:02
Speaker 1: on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
41:05
Speaker 1: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
41:07
Speaker 1: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
41:09
Speaker 1: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
41:13
Speaker 1: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
41:15
Speaker 1: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
41:18
Speaker 1: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
41:21
Speaker 1: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
41:23
Speaker 1: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
41:26
Speaker 1: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
41:30
Speaker 1: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
41:33
Speaker 1: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
41:36
Speaker 1: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
41:38
Speaker 1: from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
41:42
Speaker 1: a change.
41:42
Speaker 2: In their blood chemistry.
41:43
Speaker 1: Working dogs have a variety of highly trained roles that
41:46
Speaker 1: contribute to society and help those in need. So please

44:48
Speaker 5: amazing how these pop music stars can turn and say, yes,
44:52
Speaker 5: we're all the same, and by that I mean some
44:54
Speaker 5: are better than others. They really are Napoleon from the
45:03
Speaker 5: Animal Farm book. Some of us are more same than others.
45:08
Speaker 5: I guess as their rhetoric. There so I promised. Since
45:12
Speaker 5: Gavin Newsom is bent about the weaponization of government fund
45:19
Speaker 5: and promises a one hundred percent tax if you get
45:23
Speaker 5: money and you live in California and you were punished
45:26
Speaker 5: as a member of you know whatever class, Because remember,
45:30
Speaker 5: the weaponization of government fund is not about January sixth.
45:35
Speaker 5: Democrats are the ones that are saying it's about January sixth.
45:38
Speaker 5: Anyone that was the victim of weaponization of government can
45:43
Speaker 5: can bring a suit under this settlement. But Gavin Newsom
45:47
Speaker 5: said a.
45:47
Speaker 29: Trump all the time. He's an invasive species. We've never
45:49
Speaker 29: been again up against something like this.
45:51
Speaker 5: An invasive species, you mean like the almonds that are
46:00
Speaker 5: grown in California, Gavin, or the palm trees in Palm
46:04
Speaker 5: Springs that need to be watered constantly because they're not
46:08
Speaker 5: native to Palm Springs.
46:11
Speaker 29: And he's just not He's just winding up. I mean,
46:15
Speaker 29: he doesn't believe in fair, free elections. He believes in
46:17
Speaker 29: competitive authoritarianism. Try to like democracan fire, try to wreck
46:21
Speaker 29: this country after January sixth.
46:23
Speaker 5: So let's go to January six gave. You might even
46:28
Speaker 5: be listening right now. I don't know you know who
46:30
Speaker 5: listens to ka Hi and Sacramento, but I love being
46:34
Speaker 5: on there. And by the way, if you're in Sacramento,
46:40
Speaker 5: hold on to your wallets. The city has decided they
46:42
Speaker 5: like having Major League Baseball there, So now they've got
46:46
Speaker 5: this big taxpayer funded boondoggle that will build for some
46:50
Speaker 5: baseball team like the Washington Nationals, you know, or an
46:54
Speaker 5: expansion team. But I'm sure it'll come down to it.
46:57
Speaker 5: What well, Yeah, of course I have said for some
47:01
Speaker 5: time in Memoriam that the Washington Nationals are more likely
47:04
Speaker 5: going to wind up in Nashville than anywhere else, but
47:08
Speaker 5: Sacramento wants in. Sacramento wants their own major league team.
47:13
Speaker 5: Anyone else underperforming anyone else, you know? And when does
47:16
Speaker 5: New Orleans get a sniff at this their their Triple
47:20
Speaker 5: A team draws like crazy in New Orleans. In any event,
47:26
Speaker 5: Gavin could be listening this morning in Sacramento or one
47:29
Speaker 5: of his team, And I don't mean to be mean spirited.
47:32
Speaker 5: I wish I could make my hair do that. But
47:35
Speaker 5: let's look at January sixth for a moment. Let's go
47:38
Speaker 5: to cnn dot com the archives. January sixth, two thousand
47:44
Speaker 5: and one, Do.
47:46
Speaker 19: Do Do Do Do Do Do do dot.
47:50
Speaker 5: On the day Congress certified the electoral victory of President
47:54
Speaker 5: Day Like George W. Bush, House Democrats said they will
47:57
Speaker 5: conduct an investigation into voter problems in the two thousand campaign.
48:03
Speaker 5: House Minority Leader Dick Gephart, Democrat of Missouri, said in
48:08
Speaker 5: a statement that quote, many Americans have lingering questions about
48:12
Speaker 5: the outcome of the national election, and Congress has a responsibility,
48:18
Speaker 5: indeed an obligation, saying that slowly for any members of
48:24
Speaker 5: the Newsom administration to address those questions and restore confidence
48:29
Speaker 5: in our DEMOCRATSY Congressman John Coiners of Mizigos, the ranking
48:37
Speaker 5: Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, will lead a review
48:41
Speaker 5: into the electoral results problems witnessed and reported across the country.
48:47
Speaker 5: Mostly in Florida. This was what January sixth constitutionally was
48:53
Speaker 5: set aside for let's jump forward, shall we? Let's take
48:58
Speaker 5: another January sixth Great moments in January sixth history. January sixth,
49:04
Speaker 5: twenty seventeen. Do do do Do Do do? Do? Do do do?
49:07
Speaker 5: I'm sorry, did we not do the tartest sound doctor
49:13
Speaker 5: who has dropped us off? Now? On January sixth, twenty seventeen,
49:17
Speaker 5: the US Senate convenes twelve forty five pm, adjourning at
49:21
Speaker 5: one forty one joint session of the House and Senate
49:26
Speaker 5: to allow challenges to the electoral results from the several states.
49:32
Speaker 5: House Democrats raised objections to specific state results, citing voter
49:37
Speaker 5: suppression and other concerns, Congresswoman Jayapol objecting to George's sixteen
49:45
Speaker 5: electoral votes, and Sheila Jackson Lee objecting multiple times, according
49:50
Speaker 5: to Roll Calls reportage from January sixth of twenty seventeen.
49:55
Speaker 5: Under the rules, objections must be signed by both House
49:59
Speaker 5: and Senate members, so Senate signatures none were submitted to
50:04
Speaker 5: challenge the outcome. Huh so on January sixth, prior to
50:12
Speaker 5: twenty twenty one, because the Senate took it on the
50:16
Speaker 5: lamb so that one of their security guards could shoot
50:19
Speaker 5: a protester in the face. Ashley Babbitt. The senators took
50:27
Speaker 5: it on the lamb, hiding wherever they could hide from voters.
50:33
Speaker 5: I thought, one hundred years earlier, you were working so
50:37
Speaker 5: hard to get the voters to be your agents, to
50:42
Speaker 5: give you that office, and then when they show up
50:45
Speaker 5: at the Capitol, you go hide in the basement. Seems
50:48
Speaker 5: like an odd thing. You coveted a popular election for
50:53
Speaker 5: Senate so much, but that's just two frozen moments. January
50:59
Speaker 5: sixth was supposed to be that day that if you
51:02
Speaker 5: felt like there were questions. Most of these people are lawyers,
51:06
Speaker 5: or at least they know a few to go through
51:09
Speaker 5: legal challenges to whether or not these votes were appropriately
51:13
Speaker 5: cast or not. Many times in history, January sixth was
51:17
Speaker 5: the place where actual voter suppression was found. This was
51:21
Speaker 5: where we get the idea of walking around money and
51:25
Speaker 5: poll taxes come to the bear on January sixth. I
51:28
Speaker 5: believe it was in the nineteen twenties. Was the first
51:32
Speaker 5: time poll taxes were brought to the light of day.
51:42
Speaker 5: John writes in before we run to the News at
51:44
Speaker 5: the top, here it was very interesting. Gavin Newsom doesn't
51:48
Speaker 5: deny that there is government weaponization against the people Washington, Washington.
51:53
Speaker 5: He believes that January sixth was weaponation, weaponization against the people,
51:59
Speaker 5: even though he doesn't directly say it. Also, the policy
52:02
Speaker 5: of taxing some of one hundred percent on anything is
52:06
Speaker 5: weaponization against the people. You really can't make someone more
52:10
Speaker 5: of a characture of narcissistic statism than Gavin Newsom. Look
52:15
Speaker 5: at that. Look at that, John, You invented phrases narcissistic statism.
52:22
Speaker 5: That's like competitive authoritarianism. Maybe that can be the next
52:26
Speaker 5: Olympic sport, competitive authoritarianism. He goes on to say some
52:32
Speaker 5: of the voice to text didn't come out right in
52:34
Speaker 5: that previous comment, but I think you can see what
52:36
Speaker 5: I'm getting at. I worked on it. Yeah, I could figure.
52:40
Speaker 5: I had to jump around a little bit, jump jump,
52:42
Speaker 5: jump around, But January sixth was constitutionally mandated like postal roots.
52:51
Speaker 2: My name is Bobby.
52:52
Speaker 25: I'm a veteran and lost my leg to a roadside bomb.
52:55
