  Speaker 1: And you know, on a personal note, Thomas Media, et
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: cetera once put duct tape over our rear view mirror
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: metaphorically and never look at twenty two. We did some
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: great things. You know, this is the thing. You look
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: at all the negative stuff and it can really create
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: a tar pit to suck you into. And we were
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: we were talking a little bit about, you know, all
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: the the quote unquote negative stuff that happened to Thomas
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: Media LLC. And then I realized, you know, there's like
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: a gazillion more things that have been great that have happened.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: It has just been so notable and fiscally impactful the
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: things that have happened, you know, and that's the problem.

  Speaker 1: put your radio on Thomas Jefferson's hometown. But I would
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: just say so, you know, if you stop it, you
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: take an accounting of it. Unfortunately, when you take an
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: accounting of things, it's often you know about the dollars
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: and cents. And not to sound like Tim Walls here
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: for a second, but there's so much that has happened
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: that is good that hasn't had anything to do with money.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: It's just the things that have had to do with
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: money have been you know in ready ink, you know,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: getting kicked, you know, moving transmitters and stuff like that.

  Speaker 1: Reserve Bank in Memphis. How you go to Vegas Now?
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: It's not Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin walking down the strip.

• 3:56
  Speaker 1: sure didn't take them long to miraculously tie President Trump
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: to the fraud in Minnesota. They say it's Trump playing
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: the long game against the left. What's next next? It's
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: a diversion from the Epstein files. Happy New Year and
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: get the popcorn. It's going to be a wild ride,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: of course, but this is what they do. There are
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: high paid I'm talking seven figure media marketing types who
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: every time something bad happens to a Democrat they will
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: sit there and whiteboard all the different ways they can
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: make it Donald Trump's fault, or at very least make
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: it something Donald Trump is using to distract you from
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: the real story. And they'll have graphics for the TV news.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: It'll all you know, and mysteriously funded stuff. You know.

  Speaker 1: pardon me in an appeals court has ruled that the

  Speaker 1: Trump administration can go back to restrict directing Medicaid funding

  Speaker 1: from Planned Parenthood if they perform abortions. A federal judge
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: has said that ICE can get Medicaid medical data on
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: certain limited levels. The administration also announced that it is
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: freezing childcare funds to Minnesota and demanding an audit of
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: some daycare centers after the frauds came to light. Minnesota
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Governor Tim Walls pushed back, saying the fraudsters are a
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: serious issue that the state has spent years cracking down on,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: and the move is all just part of Trump's long game.
• 5:40

• 6:16
  Speaker 1: they write that, oh, it was John F. Kennedy's gradar,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: he didn't know her. Caroline was barely a tween when
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Jack Kennedy was assassinated. Anyway, died of terminal leukemia. Yesterday

  Speaker 7: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
• 8:13
  Speaker 7: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
• 8:18
  Speaker 7: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
• 8:22
  Speaker 7: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
• 8:26

• 8:32
  Speaker 7: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 8:37
  Speaker 7: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
• 8:42
  Speaker 7: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
• 8:46
  Speaker 7: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

  Speaker 9: Hiverybody, I'm Jack. It's always a boy growing up on
• 10:01
  Speaker 9: a farm in Tennessee. I've been fascinated with animals. I'm
• 10:04
  Speaker 9: not only in awe of their beauty and kindness, but
• 10:06
  Speaker 9: also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the birds
• 10:09
  Speaker 9: who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes who
• 10:13
  Speaker 9: work hard to provide for their young, or penguins who
• 10:15

• 10:26
  Speaker 9: the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets at home,
• 10:30
  Speaker 9: but because of their acute senses, they also perform life
• 10:33
  Speaker 9: saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe at airports.
• 10:36
  Speaker 9: They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTSS.
• 10:39
  Speaker 9: They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change
• 10:42
  Speaker 9: in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of
• 10:44
  Speaker 9: highly trained roles that contribute to society and help those
• 10:47

• 13:38
  Speaker 2: You're a first thing today by Joe Thomas.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: That's right, four three four eight A two four two
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: one seven. That is the phone number. Text messages as
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: well a couple of folks reacting to as Lawrence writes
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: that crazy ass statement about student athletes. Lawrence writes to
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: four three four eight eight two four two one seven,
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: I appreciate you uh listening in Minnesota, he writes. He says, first,
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: thank you for giving me a respite from the NonStop
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: Tim Walt spashing. It's bad enough that he's my governor.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: I don't need to hear about him all the time
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: on the radio. Hey, Lawrence, dude, welcome to the club.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: I live in Charlottesville, Virginia. I went through two years
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: of get my name out Joe mouth all right. I
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: got tired of other people who had never ever been
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: here before telling me what's going on in my town.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: So I would never presume, but you know, tell me
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: the truth, Lawrence text back. Doesn't he kind of look
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: like if you took Fozzy Bear from the Old Muppet
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: Show and shaved him down. Anyway, Lawrence's point, as he
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: goes into it, is what will become of the professional
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: sports teams if the universities begin getting to hire professional
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: athletes to play their game. I think it goes away
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: and I'm fine with that. Your point being that the
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: New York Knickerbockers have far less financial resources than, say,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: Saint John's University. Okay, do we really need six different
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: types of basketball on the radio and in the TVs?
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: Why can't Saint John's University field a team of professional
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: players to promote Saint John's University or Yukon or Marquette
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: or wherever you're listening right now, and they'll have more
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: money than Jerry Krause and the Bulls. Okay, you're already
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: asking the networks, and believe me, I'm protect the taxpayers
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: with this, because what's going to happen, Lawrence, And you
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: may be tongue in cheek, and I'm going to capitulate that.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: You know, I can't tell whether you're incredulous that I
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: would suggest that we dispense with treating the athletes that
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: perform for a college as students, but rather make you
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: classify them in the same way we would classify some
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: notable physics professor or law law professor or whatever those are.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: Those are the people who are out there saying come
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: to my law school. I teach law here, even though
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: you know that the guy teaches like one class once
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: a month. He shows up in lectures for an hour,
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: and he gets an honorarium like Liz Cheney gets here
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: at the University of Virginia. Yeah, oh, she's an adjunct professor.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: You know what that means. Adjunct is an old Latin
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: word meaning I don't have to show up. Adjunct is
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: a Latin word for no show job. Anyway. But you know,
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: my point on the matter was that if these athletes
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: simply are here to promote the university, that's what these
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: professors are for. So let's stop kidding ourselves at their students,
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: move them into the category of professor, budget them accordingly.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Then there's more transparency in it anyway, because this whole
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: name image, like this stuff has to become pardon me,
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: such a money laundering scheme right now through a lot
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: of these universities. It's like Tim Waltz will retire as
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: Minnesota governor and take over the Golden Gophers Athletic Department
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: because he has such a depth skills at money laundering
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: and passing through money that nobody knows where it went.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: And if that means professional basketball goes away, it is
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: the dullest and I love the game of basketball. It
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: is of all the big time professional sports, it is
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: my favorite. I love baseball as an endeavor to teach
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: America and everything that is America, and I think it
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: is very much the American game. But there's just something,
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: there's a sweet science in watching the pass that leads
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: to another pass that leads to a third pass that
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: leads to a wide open dunk or three point shot
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: or whatever, and you just watch the ball move and
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: then the shot go. Oh, that's just poetry. So just
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: to qualify already a basketball fan, football, football is a
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: little bit. I've never been a huge football guy. But
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: if it means the professional leagues go away, they're going
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: to be going away anyway because we are running out
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: of money. Advertising revenue is drying up, and that's what's
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: driving all of this right now, is people paying big
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: money to put their card dealerships or their home you know,
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: building companies on SEC football or Big twelve football or whatever.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: This is going to dry up very soon, and you
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: know who it's going to turn to is the taxpayer.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Because most of these universities, because they all take federal money,
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: are going to turn around with their pockets out, whether
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: they be state run schools or not, and they're going
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: to turn their pockets out to the alumni that hold
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: seats in the US Senate and the US House of Representatives. Oh,
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: we're all money, what about the alumni? And these congress
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: people are going to pass taxes to stop these universities
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: from becoming too big to fail. And I bring that
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: up because I don't want you sitting there saying, Joe,
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: that could never happen except for all the times that
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: it has. So the idea of just saying, you know,
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: and if the universities have more money than the pro
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: teams do, that's great. Then let's dispense with the pro
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: teams and then you can just you have way more
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: opportunity to play at Washington State and in Portland. They're
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: in Corvallis or University of Washington, Idaho. So you have
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: technically more of a free market anyway for a student,
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: app for a collegiate athlete because there are so many
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: more universities. And so if the professional sports withers and dies, okay,
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: they're siphoning advertising revenue that's going away anyway, and it's
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: harder and harder to get because it's becoming more and
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: more scarce. That's all I'm pointing to is that it
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: is a course of action that will, you know, save
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: the distractions and the entertainment value of the sports. It'll
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: return them to their proper place, which is promoting the
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: university and entertaining the student body while they're there. Let's
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: be honest about it. So Lawrence, I thank you for
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: calling it my crazy ass idea, but you know, and
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: nobody else will talk about it until somebody else picks
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: up on it. Mike called us, texted us, called us
• 21:59

• 22:01
  Speaker 16: Let's see if something costs less but people are happier
• 22:05
  Speaker 16: with it, that sounds like something to look into. And
• 22:07
  Speaker 16: that is meta share. Maybe you've heard switching to meta
• 22:10
  Speaker 16: share to pay for healthcare can save many families up
• 22:13
  Speaker 16: to five hundred bucks a month, and that is huge.
• 22:15
  Speaker 16: But it's also true that people are way more satisfied
• 22:18
  Speaker 16: after making the switch too. The members satisfaction rate for
• 22:21
  Speaker 16: meta share is double that of the typical health insurance plan.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: Double.
• 22:25
  Speaker 16: Meta share works too. It's been around for thirty years.
• 22:28
  Speaker 16: Members have shared more than five billion dollars of each
• 22:31
  Speaker 16: other's bills. People love having telehealth and a huge nationwide

• 28:17
  Speaker 18: Today, Money, filthy lucre.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: The root of all evil? Right, that's what you hear
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: here that money is the root of all evil, which
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: is an excuse humans make because and really, if there's
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: the essence of blaming an inanimate object for our own failings,
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: it's money, isn't it. I mean, think about it for
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: a second. Commonplace expression money is the root of all evil? No,
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: it's not. Satan is the hell you say? Money is
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: the root of all evil? Some metal coins or some
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: pieces of paper. We're the root of all evil because
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: people do amazing things with money. People. Money has saved
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: more lives than all the armies in all of Christendom.
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: Yet we love the Bernie Sanders crowd and all of
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: those folks. Oh, money is the root of all evil. No,
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: humans are the root of all evil. Money doesn't commit
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: evil any more than a firearm does, or an automobile.
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: As we approached New Year's even the one year anniversary
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: of the horrors there that pickup truck did. No one
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: harmed at all until that psychopath got behind the door
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: of it. Money. Brenda in Virginia Beach, on the subject
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: of money, says, where do they get the money to
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: pay these Democrat consultants. I think it's from US taxpayers
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: via government programs. It's time to bring back Doze in
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: a big way. Happy New Year to you and all
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: the quote characters from Brenda in Virginia Beach. I appreciate it, Brenda,
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: and we really appreciate our friends down there that carry
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: us there, and we should come. We're going to be
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: down in Virginia Beach. I think it's in June. It's
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: a tough conference for me to go to it's a
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: conference full of broadcasters. My gosh. But the money for
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: the consultants actually comes from the media. So most of
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: these political consultants get paid for placing media buys and
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: for purchasing signs that if you spend a million dollars
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: on advertising your political campaign, your campaign consultant probably is
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: going to get somewhere in the realm of thirty percent
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: of that. And that's just the way it started. I mean,
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: it's it is metastasized. I don't think that there's anything
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: inherently illegal about it. It's it's borderline in transparent. But
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: it is how many of these campaign political campaigns get
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: funded Democrat and a Republican alike. That's bipartisan. So the
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: more you know attack ads you buy, the more your
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: consultant gets paid. Oh yeah, you tell me. You see
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: you see a connection, a correlation, not causation. Maybe there
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: this one text message from here in Virginia. The love
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: or worship of money is evil, right, But who is
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: doing the worship the money isn't we are We're the
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: root of all evil because you can do good with
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: money just as much as you can do ill with money.
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: And we got onto that because it just seems like,
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: you know, all we were talking about all the year
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: in review here at Thomas Media, and there's been some
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: significant negative things that have happened, but they far are
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: overwhelmed by the amount of amazing, beautiful things that have happened.
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: The problem is that, you know, the money becomes the
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: thing that you become fixated on. It is hard even
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: for a guy like me to do that shake it
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: up off. But the money that we were talking about
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: in terms of Minnesota the aid programs, this is my
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: friend Chris Horder calls it the world's second oldest profession,
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: rent seeking. It's much easier to sell something to somebody
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: knowing it's not their money that they're spending on it.
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: So go to the government and say, I want you
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: to pay for solar panels on people's houses. Why because
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: it will look good for your boss when he runs
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: for reelection. Oh okay, I like that. And so you
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: wind up spending taxpayer money on boon doggles. Boon doggles
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: that at the moment of the boon doggling makes somebody
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: politically look like they care, they're in tune, they're in touch.
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure who held the first dog and pony show.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: But I'll bet you it had to do with something political.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: So they take your tax money that you have to give.
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: And believe me that the corruption in the tax system
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: starts with its in transparency. Send me a bill, and
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: it doesn't even have to be a scriptural bill. Say
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: here's what we need to spend in the next quarter
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: for police and do the math. Do the arithmetic, as
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: Ronald Reagan said, say the FBI is going to cost
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: six billion dollars this quarter. I'm and you're one three
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: hundred and thirty millionth of the population or let's say
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: tax paying population, adult population. So is that that's close
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: to two hundred million adults in the United States right now.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: So let's say you had a three billion dollar price
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: tag on defense and you're you know, one out of
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: three hundred and thirty million or no, do what did
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: we decide? Two hundred and thirty million? Make it easy?
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: Two hundred million, that's you know not look sethy, it's
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: five one millionth of a percent. So you take that
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: and you multiply it by the six billion dollar price tag. Right,
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: so you owe us three thousand dollars for national defense.
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: That's your contribution for national defense. What next line is
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: the FBI. What FBI's got a two billion dollar price tag.
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: Let's do the math on that. And this is what
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: would happen if you had an honest brokerage of government.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: Your governors and your state representatives and your county supervisors
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: would have to do the same thing. Send me a
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: detailed invoice telling me what you need my money for,
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: how much of it, and what you're going to use
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: it for. Then three months time, when the quarter is over,
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: I'm going to come back to you and say, hey,
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: you didn't spend this stuff on that transparency, then rains
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: and the boondoggles can't go on because they'd have to say, Hey,
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: we need one thousand dollars in your next tax bill
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: for a program that will help put solar panels on
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: all of your neighbor's houses. I don't want to pay
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: for that. Hey, we need five hundred dollars in your
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: next tax bill to go to the abortion clinic down
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: the street to help kill babies. I don't want that. Well,
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: you have to give it to us or you go
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: to jail. All right, why don't you come and try
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: to arrest me. I've got a lawyer that says you
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: can't coerce me into doing that. You see what I
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: mean about it can be simple and a little bit
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: of the discussion we had yesterday about you know, the
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: role and what things are we agreeing that have to
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: happen in a constitutional government like roads and you know
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: in cities water supplies, those are local government decisions. And
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: why the federal government gets involved in it is to
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: create in transparency, so you can't see what is being
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: wasted in your Department of Public Works or in your
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: housing and urban development program. All you know is there
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: doesn't seem to be much housing, and the urban development
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: has been going the wrong direction. But yet the Department

• 41:10
  Speaker 20: million people a year. Even sadder, most of these deaths
• 41:14
  Speaker 20: are preventable with a few lifestyle changes, including regular activity,
• 41:18
  Speaker 20: healthier eating, and not smoking. Talk to your doctor about

• 41:26
  Speaker 20: if your doctor recommends lifestyle changes or medication, listen. The
• 41:31
  Speaker 20: reason so many die is because not enough are willing

• 44:24
  Speaker 1: tedsday of twenty twenty five. I don't worry, They'll still
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: be Tedsdey's and Pride Month and all the other things.
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: So quick question for you as we finish up here
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: and on the Minnesota and I've been watching the wires
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: for this because I'm waiting for somebody else to pick
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: up on the eighteen billion dollars. The ninety eight mayors
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: a couple of two weeks ago, I guess now, ninety
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: eight mayors of cities in Minnesota sent a letter calling
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: on the governor to fix what's wrong because the state
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: had burned through an eighteen billion dollar surplus and turned
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: it mystically and magically into a three billion dollar deficit.
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: So while Tim Waltz talks about Donald Trump's long game,
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: meaning he's engaging some long con to I don't know
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: what we're fooling you about, aside from the fact that
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: aid programs generally get corrupted and people steal from them.
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: I'll play this clip especially for our friends at wd
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: ORKDIC in Minnesota, knowing that the only state in all
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: fifty states in the United States that Ronald Reagan never
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: carried as a presidential candidate was Minnesota.
• 46:07
  Speaker 21: We have so many people who can't see a fat
• 46:09
  Speaker 21: man standing beside a fin one without coming to the
• 46:12
  Speaker 21: conclusion that fat man got that way by taking advantage
• 46:14
  Speaker 21: of the finwin. So they're going to solve all the
• 46:17
  Speaker 21: problems of human misery through government and government planning. Well, now,
• 46:22
  Speaker 21: if government planning and welfare had the answer, and they've
• 46:26
  Speaker 21: had almost thirty years of it, shouldn't we expect government
• 46:29
  Speaker 21: to read the score to us once in a while.
• 46:31
  Speaker 21: Shouldn't they be telling us about the decline each year
• 46:34
  Speaker 21: and the number of people needing help, the reduction in
• 46:37
  Speaker 21: the need for public housing.
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: And of course you know that's not been the case,
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: and that Tim Walls in this case, it is not
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: just the Somalis, and this is the thing they want
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: us talking about the Somalis for several reasons. Number one,
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: it helps them make the case that we're racists. It
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: helps us, It helps them the Marxists, marginalize our voices.
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: It puts us in the same boat with the Nazis.
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: And I went through this. I'm speaking to you from
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: experience when the Nazis came to Charlottesville and tried to
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: convince my listeners that they were here to support Robert E.
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: Lee's statue. They catfished so many of my listeners into
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: going to that faithful rally on August twelfth, twenty seventeen,
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: by pretending that they were there to support free speech.
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: But they weren't, and they lied.
• 47:54
  Speaker 13: But you also had people that were very fine people.
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: You did, you did, so I know what I'm talking
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: about when I say they're hurting us into a place
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: where we can't get out of. I spent most of
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: twenty seventeen debunking this idea that the organizers of that
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: riley in Charlottesville were anywhere near the right. They called
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: themselves Unite the Right, and I challenged them to prove it.
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: Everything they wanted was socialist, which isn't the right. They
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: might have been mispronouncing it and they were trying to
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: unite the right, but that's a different story. But they
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: claimed to be conservatives, So I spent twenty seventeen and
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: twenty eighteen explaining that they were not conservatives. They might
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: as well have called their organization Unite the Unicorns. It
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: would have been just as accurate. And the same is
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: happening with the Somalis, the same thing. They're putting us
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: in the same closed minded, anti Semitic boat that they
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: want us in. They want us being, you know, a racists.
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: They want us spewing things that are about race and
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: not fiscal responsibility and the problems with corruptible aid programs.
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: They'd rather have us make it out like it's just
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: it's well, it's Somalis and yeah, are there is there
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: systemic corruption in Somalia? Yeah, that's part of the reason
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: that they use when they come here looking for refuge,
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: and then and then we start handing the bags of
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: money and we get surprised when they get corrupted with it. Huh,
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: It's not like they grow up in a country that
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: that's how government works. Rehighlighting the point of citizenship matters
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: more than anyone skin color. Citizenship where you know what
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: your rights are and what you're and just having a
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: right to a bag full of money is not an
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: American right. But we're being herded into this place. And
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: part of it is Tim Waltz that doesn't want anyone asking, hey,
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: what about the other I mean, this is a drop
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: in the bucket when you're talking about losing making twenty
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: one billion dollars vanish. David Copperfield is sitting there saying
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: how'd you do that? Penn and Teller are sitting there saying,
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: how did you do that? We can't figure out how
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: you did that magic trick in the government. And I
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: just started shoveling it into bags and handing it to people. Wow,
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: what a great magic trick. Can we try that? So
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: they The real long con is Tim Waltz trying to
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: get you to not pay attention to the fact that
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: his administration, through as Ronald Reagan called it, the do gooders,
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: have made eighteen billion dollars surplus turn into a three
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: billion dollar deficit. So when Tim Walls gets his puffed
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: up self all righteously indignant about this, he is loving
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: this he's loving the Nick Shirley videos. He's loving the
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: people talking NonStop on all the TV networks about the
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: Somalis because a it makes the conservative seem like everything
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: that they've been trying to tell people we are, which
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: is racist and misogynist and colonialists than every other ist
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: between here and ist tan bole, which we're not. There
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: are some people who are. And for every time you know,
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: a Nick Fuentes opens his cake hole, more of us
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: wind up sounding like, Oh, yeah, it's just the Somalis.
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: Round up all the somalis is. It was it one
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: hundred thousand Somalis in Minnesota, thirty thousand in Ohio, four
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: thousand in Virginia. That's not the problem. It's it's the
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: do gooders that have made all the other money disappear.
• 52:42
  Speaker 19: Because I'm coming.
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: That's it for us until tomorrow morning, five Easter, and
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: I'm Joe, so long and thanks for all the fish.
• 52:51
