Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: I'll tell you. Let me tell you something. I'm not rich.
- 0:04Speaker 1: I'm not. And this latest increase literally is as far
- 0:11Speaker 1: as I can go. Like I cannot go any further.
- 0:16Speaker 1: And if the taxes go up, next go around, if
- 0:19Speaker 1: the insurance goes up, and by the way, I've never
- 0:21Speaker 1: missed a payment, never late, right? Never put in an
- 0:25Speaker 1: insurance claim, not once. And if the the taxes or
- 0:31Speaker 1: the insurance or anything else goes up, let's say in 2027,
- 0:40Speaker 1: I can't afford it. Like I may have to sell
- 0:43Speaker 1: my own house that I've been in for 25 years
- 0:45Speaker 1: and I'm not rich, but I'm not poor. Right?
- 0:51Speaker 2: I work.
- 0:53Speaker 1: And the combined income of my household is, it's not terrible.
- 1:02Speaker 1: So my question is to our Democrat friends who are
- 1:07Speaker 1: extorting me because it's by their policies that I've gone
- 1:11Speaker 1: off the rail. And these folks are trying to squeeze
- 1:15Speaker 1: me out of my own house, the house that I
- 1:18Speaker 1: live in. And they talk about fairness. Dems try to
- 1:22Speaker 1: talk about fairness for everyone. So let me ask everybody this,
- 1:26Speaker 1: some very important question. Where's the fairness for me? Where's
- 1:31Speaker 1: my fairness? Where's the fairness for the guy who swings
- 1:35Speaker 1: a hammer every single day? Where's his fairness? Where's the
- 1:41Speaker 1: fairness for the mother or the father driving an Uber
- 1:44Speaker 1: at night? Not for extra cash, not for a vacation,
- 1:48Speaker 1: but so they can eat. Where's the fairness for them?
- 1:54Speaker 1: And where's the fairness for the elderly couple down the
- 1:56Speaker 1: street who are living on a fixed income? who worked
- 1:59Speaker 1: their whole lives, paid off their mortgage, and now are
- 2:02Speaker 1: being taxed out of the home that they own. They're
- 2:05Speaker 1: even in a worse state than I am because they're
- 2:07Speaker 1: on a fixed income. Where's that fairness? Democrats talk about fairness, equity.
- 2:17Speaker 1: Where's my fairness? How's my life better? It certainly isn't $ 7, 000 better.
- 2:22Speaker 1: The roads aren't $ 7, 000 smoother. Education in my town is
- 2:31Speaker 1: not $ 7, 000 better. My water pressure isn't $ 7, 000 better. The
- 2:39Speaker 1: streets of my town aren't $ 7, 000 cleaner. So what's going.
- 2:45Speaker 3: On?
- 2:45Speaker 1: What's happening? What's happening? And I'll tell you where it
- 2:57Speaker 1: isn't happening. It isn't happening in the speeches. It isn't
- 2:59Speaker 1: happening in their promises. Because for some reason, fairness only
- 3:04Speaker 1: seems to apply to certain groups, certain talking points, certain
- 3:08Speaker 1: political moments. And they never get to the man or
- 3:12Speaker 1: the woman who gets up at 5 o'clock in the morning,
- 3:15Speaker 1: does the work, pays the taxes, and asks for nothing
- 3:19Speaker 1: except to be left alone, to be able to live
- 3:21Speaker 1: their life. Don't ask for anything. Not going to the
- 3:24Speaker 1: government with their hat in their hands. Begging. And I've
- 3:29Speaker 1: said this a million times on this show and others,
- 3:32Speaker 1: and my own. We've developed a nanny state society. Unfortunately,
- 3:38Speaker 1: we can't even stand on our own two feet. And
- 3:44Speaker 1: if you're like me, you're tired of being used as
- 3:46Speaker 1: a talking point. Right? And you're not powerless. Don't think
- 3:53Speaker 1: you're powerless. You don't have to keep handing your future
- 3:58Speaker 1: over to people who, for some reason, never seem to
- 4:04Speaker 1: act on what's right for the common, everyday, decent person,
- 4:08Speaker 1: the middle-class person. Taxes are a choice the elected officials make.
- 4:15Speaker 1: Spending it is a choice that the elected officials make
- 4:20Speaker 1: to spend your tax dollars, your hard-earned money, I believe
- 4:26Speaker 1: in lower taxes, smaller government, getting the state the hell
- 4:29Speaker 1: out of the way, getting them out of my wallet.
- 4:33Speaker 1: I mean, a 60-year-old man who's worked his whole life
- 4:36Speaker 1: shouldn't have to sell his home just because the tax
- 4:41Speaker 1: bill keeps growing and growing and growing. This is the
- 4:48Speaker 1: state that we're in right now. And it's the state,
- 4:52Speaker 1: in my mind, that's been brought upon because we have
- 4:56Speaker 1: gone out of control, both Republicans and Democrats, with insane spending.
- 5:02Speaker 1: Dollars just not worth what it was. So what ends
- 5:06Speaker 1: up happening? Folks get caught in the crossfire. I believe
- 5:13Speaker 1: in fairness, real fairness. Every person, every single person out
- 5:16Speaker 1: there listening or watching, you deserve fairness. The fairness that
- 5:23Speaker 1: You know, you work hard, you get the fruits of
- 5:25Speaker 1: your labor. You don't give those fruits to somebody else.
- 5:30Speaker 1: In order to have these programs that Democrats love so much,
- 5:33Speaker 1: they've got to take it from somebody to give it
- 5:35Speaker 1: to somebody else. And I don't know how many times
- 5:38Speaker 1: we have to preach that, but it's incredible. All right,
- 5:44Speaker 1: we've got a good hour in store for you for sure.
- 5:46Speaker 1: So Zastava Arms began 170 years ago. In Serbia today,
- 5:51Speaker 1: Zastava is one of the world's most recognized names in
- 5:55Speaker 1: military and sporting firearms. No Zastava product is more legendary
- 6:00Speaker 1: than the M70, the battle-proven AK rifle. In 2018, entrepreneur
- 6:05Speaker 1: Ranko Ristic bought Zastava firearms directly to American gun owners.
- 6:11Speaker 1: Zastava quickly earned a reputation for quality, durability, and reliability,
- 6:15Speaker 1: earning the Gun Importer of the Year. Many gun experts
- 6:18Speaker 1: say They make the best AK-47 semi-automatic rifles in the
- 6:22Speaker 1: entire world. One of the most recognizable Zastava rifles is Z-PAP,
- 6:27Speaker 1: the sporting version of the M-70. The semi-automatic sporting rifle
- 6:32Speaker 1: has a simple reputation. It's built like a tank. It
- 6:35Speaker 1: features a 50% thicker than standard AK, longer handguards, flip-up
- 6:41Speaker 1: night sights, and and a grenade gas cutoff. Zastava Z-PAP,
- 6:45Speaker 1: built like a tank, built to be used, built to last.

- 10:29Speaker 1: tomorrow night, but don't go away. We've got a great
- 10:31Speaker 1: show in store for you both nights for sure. And
- 10:35Speaker 1: I always love talking to my next guest, but we'll
- 10:37Speaker 1: get to him in just a second. This segment is
- 10:40Speaker 1: sponsored by Energized Health. Now, you've heard Wayne Allen Root
- 10:43Speaker 1: talk about how Energized Health has changed his entire life.
- 10:47Speaker 1: He lost 25 pounds of fat, including the dangerous inner
- 10:50Speaker 1: body visceral fat. He gained about 10 pounds of muscle.
- 10:53Speaker 1: and intercellular hydration. Only 88 days. It took him 88
- 10:57Speaker 1: days to turn into an Adonis. It's not that simple. Now,
- 11:01Speaker 1: five years later, he says he feels the best in
- 11:03Speaker 1: his entire life, and he gives all the credit to
- 11:07Speaker 1: Energize Health. Energize Health is not a traditional weight loss program. Nope,
- 11:10Speaker 1: those don't work. It is a fat loss program. The
- 11:14Speaker 1: program is simple, easy, and healthy, all based on a
- 11:17Speaker 1: foundation of the Life Game Changers Extra and intercellular hydration. Now,
- 11:23Speaker 1: With many people using the Osempic and the GLP-1s, Energize
- 11:27Speaker 1: Health is working alongside those folks to help minimize the
- 11:31Speaker 1: many side effects. It's fat loss the healthy way, not
- 11:34Speaker 1: weight loss, but fat loss, which is what you want.
- 11:38Speaker 1: You don't want to just lose weight. You want to
- 11:39Speaker 1: lose fat. It's that simple. So here's your chance to
- 11:41Speaker 1: be like Wayne. Energize Health can change your life and
- 11:45Speaker 1: supercharge your health, just like it did for Wayne. Right now,

- 11:59Speaker 6: All right.
- 12:00Speaker 1: Our very good friend, super friend of the show, great
- 12:02Speaker 1: friend of mine. In fact, he was making it rain
- 12:07Speaker 1: to all kinds of excellence this morning as he was
- 12:10Speaker 1: filling in on my own morning show here in Connecticut.
- 12:13Speaker 1: And he is one of our go-to guys, and that's
- 12:15Speaker 1: the great Tony D'Angelo. Tony, how are you this afternoon?
- 12:18Speaker 1: I appreciate you coming on.
- 12:20Speaker 6: And I am doing fine.
- 12:23Speaker 5: And good afternoon and good evening to all the great
- 12:27Speaker 5: folks on the Wayne Allen Root Show.
- 12:29Speaker 1: Well, listen, I wanted to talk to you about bad decisions,
- 12:32Speaker 1: bad in particular, bad political decisions. And what happens when
- 12:38Speaker 1: politicians make these bad decisions, Tony?
- 12:41Speaker 5: Well, you know, as my seventh grade English teacher, God
- 12:44Speaker 5: bless him, Charlie Mazur would say in Stanford, Connecticut. D'Angelo,
- 12:48Speaker 5: it's simple as that and just as difficult. They make
- 12:51Speaker 5: a bad decision, and the bad people get away with
- 12:55Speaker 5: what they're doing, and the social consequence of that, Lee Elsie,
- 12:59Speaker 5: ends up on the good people, the people who are
- 13:03Speaker 5: paying their bills and trying to keep their nose clean
- 13:05Speaker 5: and stay out of trouble and hold jobs and that
- 13:07Speaker 5: sort of thing. Interestingly enough, there was an article in
- 13:12Speaker 5: our local Hartford Courant today about. It has dawned on the,
- 13:18Speaker 5: and how could I put it, it gets to be
- 13:21Speaker 5: so egregious that even the most liberal among us cannot.
- 13:28Speaker 6: Deny the result.
- 13:29Speaker 5: The Hartford Courant, which is not exactly the bastion of conservativism,
- 13:34Speaker 5: is telling us in this article this morning that that
- 13:39Speaker 5: ever since our state, Connecticut, legalized marijuana, there's two needles
- 13:46Speaker 5: moving up, and the two needles are undeniable, is the
- 13:51Speaker 5: use of marijuana or the use of legal marijuana and
- 13:56Speaker 5: traffic accidents and pedestrian accidents. And you or I might
- 14:01Speaker 5: look at that and say, no stuff, Sherlock. The more
- 14:03Speaker 5: impaired people you have, the more problems you're going to have.
- 14:07Speaker 5: But Some of these statistics, which I understand come from
- 14:11Speaker 5: a national report, positive drivers, drivers driving in fatalities that were,
- 14:22Speaker 5: you know, unfortunately killed. There was a 5% increase in
- 14:29Speaker 5: the frequency of accidents increased. Now, the motorcyclist, that's the
- 14:33Speaker 5: same thing. Dead pedestrians double. These are people walking down
- 14:37Speaker 5: the street stoned, don't know what they're walking into, don't.
- 14:41Speaker 6: Care, stumbling out in front of cars.
- 14:43Speaker 5: You know, you're trying, you drive into a city like
- 14:46Speaker 5: Hartford or Los Angeles in New York, and you're trying
- 14:49Speaker 5: to be as careful as you can. These people are
- 14:51Speaker 5: just stumbling out in front of you. And it's this
- 14:54Speaker 5: whole thing of, well, I mean, number one, it's a
- 14:57Speaker 5: cavalier attitude towards the use of, shall we say, substances
- 15:03Speaker 5: that can impair you. It's the sort of thing where
- 15:08Speaker 5: what has gone on in our state, it's gone on
- 15:09Speaker 5: in a lot of other states. They saw the money.
- 15:12Speaker 5: They saw the fact that, well, we can make money
- 15:14Speaker 5: out of this. Of course, if you're a state like
- 15:16Speaker 5: the one we've got, which isn't really any different than
- 15:19Speaker 5: any other blue state, you've got to have 15 boards,
- 15:23Speaker 5: nine commissions, 37 psychologists, all of this to, quote unquote,
- 15:27Speaker 5: keep it safe. And all it really does is completely
- 15:30Speaker 5: destroy whatever revenue element they were hoping to get.
- 15:33Speaker 1: Out of it.
- 15:34Speaker 5: And what it comes down to is we are now,
- 15:38Speaker 5: you know, this is just one of the three things
- 15:40Speaker 5: I'd like to discuss. We're just now in a much
- 15:42Speaker 5: more unsafe and dangerous environment as these politicians come out
- 15:48Speaker 5: and pontificate how we're making these things free and how
- 15:52Speaker 5: these things shouldn't be criminalized.
- 15:54Speaker 6: We don't look at the fact. of the risk.
- 15:57Speaker 5: Against good citizens. It's like, we're all supposed to just
- 16:01Speaker 5: pay the freight, if.
- 16:02Speaker 6: You will, for all this governmental stupidity.
- 16:05Speaker 5: And where I think Republicans need to do a better job,
- 16:10Speaker 5: because I want to see Republicans win, I don't want
- 16:14Speaker 5: to see socialism, I don't want to see communism, nobody does,
- 16:19Speaker 5: is that they've got to point out that the more
- 16:22Speaker 5: of this stuff that goes on, the more of this,
- 16:25Speaker 5: you know, risk and garbage and nonsense and political virtue signaling,
- 16:31Speaker 5: the more you, Mr. and Mrs. American citizen, are at
- 16:35Speaker 5: risk because of what these dopies are doing. I mean,
- 16:37Speaker 5: you take our state. We've had legislators making laws while drunk.
- 16:42Speaker 5: We've had the same legislator not only making laws while drunk, but,
- 16:46Speaker 5: you know, driving home one night, coming home from the
- 16:48Speaker 5: bar and flip the car. And it's like, well, what
- 16:50Speaker 5: do we do? Well, we're going to rehabilitate her and
- 16:53Speaker 5: everything is going to be right. We don't hear anything
- 16:55Speaker 5: about that. It is this whole cavalier attitude. And I'm
- 16:58Speaker 5: just frankly getting tired of seeing my insurance costs go up,
- 17:03Speaker 5: getting things harder and harder to do. And it's all
- 17:06Speaker 5: because of stupid political decisions. And, you know, number one,
- 17:11Speaker 5: it's Democrats and liberal states are doing it. Number two,
- 17:14Speaker 5: Republicans have got to fight harder to point that out.
- 17:17Speaker 6: Your ball, my friend.
- 17:18Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you some of the things you mentioned.
- 17:20Speaker 1: Let's start with marijuana. So marijuana clearly, you know, it it.
- 17:26Speaker 1: changes your perception of the planet. So it would think
- 17:30Speaker 1: that people who smoke pot or take the gummies wouldn't
- 17:33Speaker 1: be involved in more traffic accidents. So, you know, the
- 17:36Speaker 1: greed of this state, other states have gone hand in
- 17:39Speaker 1: hand with that, has not really added up to what
- 17:42Speaker 1: they thought they were going to, not only with loss
- 17:44Speaker 1: of life, but you've got injury, you've got the insurance
- 17:46Speaker 1: rates going up, all of that stuff. So if you
- 17:47Speaker 1: take that, number one, Tony, also, I mean, this state
- 17:52Speaker 1: incorporated gambling a few years ago. And I'm sure just
- 17:56Speaker 1: about all the other states in the 50 have done
- 17:59Speaker 1: the same thing. My question to that, and they're making
- 18:02Speaker 1: a tremendous amount of revenue when it comes to gambling, again,
- 18:06Speaker 1: on the backs of the citizens of the state or
- 18:08Speaker 1: the surrounding states. So, you know, that vice is costing
- 18:12Speaker 1: families dearly. Also, I mean, how many years ago did
- 18:15Speaker 1: they introduce the lottery and all that money was supposed
- 18:18Speaker 1: to go to education and nobody really knows where that
- 18:21Speaker 1: is going. So to amplify your point, they tax or
- 18:26Speaker 1: they do these sin taxes or they do these fees.
- 18:29Speaker 1: And my question is, A, where does the money go?
- 18:31Speaker 1: And B, wherever it does go, it's not working because
- 18:34Speaker 1: the life is not better here than it was four
- 18:37Speaker 1: years ago, 10 years ago, 20 years ago.
- 18:39Speaker 5: Well, and how many times have I said on our
- 18:43Speaker 5: morning show, the politician does not understand risk, nor does
- 18:48Speaker 5: he or she care about risk generally.
- 18:51Speaker 6: So when they come out and say, well, I'm.
- 18:53Speaker 5: Making this free and this is good and this is
- 18:55Speaker 5: going to give us revenue, that one poor guy, Lee Elsie,
- 18:59Speaker 5: driving to work at five o'clock this morning, you know,
- 19:03Speaker 5: getting blitzed by somebody who's high and, you know, permanent injury,
- 19:09Speaker 5: brain injury, loses his job, family gets foreclosed on. I mean, like,
- 19:14Speaker 5: And the political world looks at this like, who cares?
- 19:17Speaker 5: You know, that's aren't we doing wonders for humanity? And
- 19:20Speaker 5: it's just it gets tiring. And this is where Republicans
- 19:23Speaker 5: need to do a better job of getting after these
- 19:26Speaker 5: people and pointing them out, saying, listen, you're living in Connecticut,
- 19:29Speaker 5: New York, California. You're 40 percent more likely to suffer,
- 19:34Speaker 5: God forbid, one of these things. And if you did,
- 19:37Speaker 5: if you had sane people understanding what the heck government's
- 19:41Speaker 5: supposed to be about running it.
- 19:43Speaker 1: Well, Tony, it's that same phrase. I use it all
- 19:46Speaker 1: the time. And these politicians, most of them... the unintended consequences,
- 19:52Speaker 1: you know, they think of something, even if they genuinely
- 19:54Speaker 1: think it's going to be for the best.
- 19:56Speaker 6: Right.
- 19:56Speaker 1: And I'll give some of them the credit. Maybe they
- 19:58Speaker 1: thought this would be great. You know, everyone's smoking pot
- 20:01Speaker 1: or everyone's doing it. So let's get money from it
- 20:02Speaker 1: and we'll use it to help people. The problem is
- 20:05Speaker 1: they don't see the big picture. They don't understand that. Well,
- 20:07Speaker 1: other people now are going to get hooked on that.
- 20:09Speaker 1: That wouldn't have gotten hooked on it before. I'm going
- 20:11Speaker 1: to do that earlier. And like you had just said,
- 20:13Speaker 1: we've got car accidents that spike. And as far as
- 20:15Speaker 1: gambling goes, you got young kids, by the way. And I,
- 20:19Speaker 1: I warned about this and this is, this is a
- 20:22Speaker 1: topic that I know a lot about, right? I know
- 20:24Speaker 1: about this topic. I'm an expert in this topic. And
- 20:28Speaker 1: the mistake that all these states made is they got
- 20:30Speaker 1: too greedy because now you don't have to actually physically
- 20:33Speaker 1: go to a brick-and-mortar place. You can do all your
- 20:36Speaker 1: gambling on your phone. And so what happens is kids
- 20:38Speaker 1: get somebody's credit card or their dad's credit card or
- 20:40Speaker 1: they get a credit card, say they're 18, they're not,
- 20:42Speaker 1: they're only 15, 16, and all of a sudden now
- 20:45Speaker 1: they are hooked into this world and it's an ugly scene.
- 20:50Speaker 6: It's amazing. Now, you know, in the interest of time,
- 20:53Speaker 6: we'll move along for that. from that.
- 20:56Speaker 5: The second thing is, you know, we have one of
- 20:58Speaker 5: our contributors on our show, Rocky Camardella, talks about this constantly,
- 21:02Speaker 5: the closing of volunteer firehouses. And you think, well, what,
- 21:07Speaker 5: you know, like, hey, so what does that really matter?
- 21:09Speaker 6: Well, you look at the statistics.
- 21:12Speaker 5: 65% of American firefighters are volunteers, and that was really
- 21:17Speaker 5: a feeder system for the paid departments. Now, Connecticut has
- 21:22Speaker 5: a number one is faced with two things, or a
- 21:25Speaker 5: lot of states are faced with this.
- 21:27Speaker 6: A dwindling number of volunteers, basically.
- 21:31Speaker 5: And then you have, you know, in cities, our most
- 21:35Speaker 5: notable is Norwich, Connecticut. where the push is to have
- 21:40Speaker 5: the paid union firefighters. And let's put pressure on all
- 21:43Speaker 5: the volunteer places because for whatever reason, you know, they're
- 21:46Speaker 5: not union and we don't want them. And we're going
- 21:49Speaker 5: to do whatever we can to close them. Now, when
- 21:52Speaker 5: you look at this and when you look at risk, again,
- 21:54Speaker 5: if anybody listening to this or driving, whatever the case
- 21:57Speaker 5: may be, if you just take away this one thing,
- 22:00Speaker 5: politicians don't understand risk. If you had a volunteer firehouse
- 22:04Speaker 5: that was a half mile from your house, and your
- 22:08Speaker 5: city said, well, I'm going to close that firehouse because
- 22:11Speaker 5: of A, B, C, D, E, F, and G. And,
- 22:14Speaker 5: you know, God forbid you have an incident at your house.
- 22:16Speaker 5: You have a fire, you have a heart attack. The
- 22:20Speaker 5: closest firehouse might be three miles away. Now, in that
- 22:24Speaker 5: three miles away, you know, it's five minutes towards ops breathing,
- 22:29Speaker 5: and you could have permanent brain damage. Or maybe it's
- 22:33Speaker 5: six minutes till a house actually flashes over to the
- 22:36Speaker 5: point of no return.
- 22:37Speaker 6: You think, well, that's bad. Yes, that's bad and bad enough. However,
- 22:43Speaker 6: you are an insurance company.
- 22:45Speaker 5: Who basically does not hear one iota about the laws
- 22:50Speaker 5: being passed in your state other than to say, how
- 22:54Speaker 5: much money can we make in this state if we
- 22:57Speaker 5: charge a premium of that would insure us for our risk.
- 23:01Speaker 5: So they've doubled your house insurance because you're now in
- 23:05Speaker 5: a much riskier place.
- 23:07Speaker 6: And that kind of.
- 23:10Speaker 5: Thing of we're talking this morning about illegal, undocumented illegal,
- 23:17Speaker 5: let's call them illegal aliens. And let's just say they've
- 23:20Speaker 5: got drive-only licenses. And let's just say that they've got
- 23:24Speaker 5: no property. And they're just hooking plates on cars and
- 23:28Speaker 5: driving them and slamming them together. And maybe they don't
- 23:31Speaker 5: understand the rules of the road. And maybe they don't care.
- 23:35Speaker 5: And they get into trouble. And they smash somebody's car.
- 23:39Speaker 5: And of course, well, hey, what are you going to do? Well,
- 23:42Speaker 5: let's sue the illegal alien. What is his property? He
- 23:45Speaker 5: doesn't have any property. Well, who's going to pay for that? Well,
- 23:47Speaker 5: your insurance is going to pay for that.
- 23:49Speaker 6: And you take all these things together.
- 23:54Speaker 5: The marijuana, the illegal firehouses, the drugs, and all.
- 24:03Speaker 6: This stuff, it's like you're bearing.
- 24:06Speaker 5: Your costs are increasing 30%, 40%, 50% over what they
- 24:11Speaker 5: were because as politicians make these pontifications, if you will,
- 24:18Speaker 5: and how wonderful they are, and we want to have
- 24:21Speaker 5: a free society, we want to have open borders.
- 24:23Speaker 6: And all that.
- 24:25Speaker 5: Regardless of how you may feel politically, your wallet's going
- 24:29Speaker 5: to be paying. And the thing is, I say to
- 24:32Speaker 5: people at protests, if they go to protests like recently
- 24:36Speaker 5: in our Danbury, Connecticut, we had ICE in and they
- 24:40Speaker 5: were removing illegal aliens. The people that are protesting at
- 24:45Speaker 5: these protests walk up to them and say, well, how
- 24:47Speaker 5: do you feel about your car insurance going up 50%?
- 24:50Speaker 5: Because you believe so much in this thing. Do you
- 24:53Speaker 5: believe so much in this thing that you're willing to
- 24:55Speaker 5: pay more in car insurance? You're willing to pay more
- 24:57Speaker 5: in house insurance?
- 24:58Speaker 6: You're willing to pay more for open borders?
- 25:01Speaker 5: And I don't think people think of that and the
- 25:03Speaker 5: cost of that. And then again, I don't think Republicans
- 25:07Speaker 5: do a good enough job of going to these cities
- 25:11Speaker 5: and these campaigns and saying, look, say whatever you want.
- 25:14Speaker 5: You talk all the social virtue, all this nonsense, all
- 25:16Speaker 5: you want. This is costing you money, Ani.
- 25:20Speaker 1: No question. Yeah, you're bullseye on a lot of that stuff.
- 25:24Speaker 1: And I think in some cases, yes. You know, we've
- 25:27Speaker 1: got an election coming up in less than two months.
- 25:29Speaker 1: In some cases, the Republican in some areas, they want
- 25:32Speaker 1: to shy away from these. These are real issues that
- 25:35Speaker 1: absolutely 100 percent affect these Connecticut families, American families. And
- 25:40Speaker 1: for some reason, the Republicans seemingly want to stay away
- 25:44Speaker 1: from illegal immigration because maybe it doesn't test well, it
- 25:47Speaker 1: doesn't poll well. They don't think people care about it.
- 25:50Speaker 1: But what I don't think people understand is just like
- 25:52Speaker 1: you explained earlier, Is that like a ripple in a pond?
- 25:56Speaker 1: It affects them financially more than they even imagine.
- 26:01Speaker 5: And it can affect them socially, like the people who
- 26:05Speaker 5: come out and say, we were talking about a gentleman
- 26:07Speaker 5: this morning whom will remain nameless, and that this gentleman
- 26:12Speaker 5: is a prominent person who was telling you, oh, this
- 26:15Speaker 5: doesn't matter, or this is something they're not concerned with.
- 26:18Speaker 5: They're going to be concerned if they ended up like
- 26:20Speaker 5: that poor kid in Ohio who that was hit by
- 26:24Speaker 5: the illegal alien driving in Ohio with a drive-only license
- 26:30Speaker 5: from Connecticut.
- 26:31Speaker 6: And that's the kind of thing. Again, it's risk.
- 26:34Speaker 5: Again, they don't understand the risk. If you don't think
- 26:38Speaker 5: this is a saleable issue, number one, I think you're stupid.
- 26:42Speaker 5: But number two, address it in terms of risk, and
- 26:44Speaker 5: I think you'll get a much better reaction.
- 26:48Speaker 1: His name is Tony D'Angelo. I'll call him Tony D. Now, Tony,
- 26:51Speaker 1: you have been putting out some amazing content on your page.
- 26:57Speaker 1: Tell everybody where to go to find out what you do.
- 26:59Speaker 1: Every single week on Thursdays, you release a great video,
- 27:02Speaker 1: but you got a lot of other stuff going on.
- 27:04Speaker 1: Where do they go to find out more about you?
- 27:06Speaker 5: Well, actually, go to my YouTube page, 30 with Tony.
- 27:10Speaker 5: We do a show every Thursday at 3. It's on
- 27:15Speaker 5: X Twitter, YouTube, and Talk Red Media. And then it
- 27:18Speaker 5: circulates around Twitter for a while, and we get into
- 27:22Speaker 5: some good discussions. We're mostly locally based, but I think
- 27:26Speaker 5: in so many cases, if you're living in a blue state,
- 27:29Speaker 5: the issues that we have here are the same ones
- 27:31Speaker 5: in California and the same in Connecticut. I mean, Basically,
- 27:35Speaker 5: right now, Connecticut and New York, New York's like a
- 27:38Speaker 5: AAA California, if you want to use the baseball analogy.
- 27:41Speaker 5: Connecticut's a AA. And it's all because of the fact
- 27:46Speaker 5: of how these states are governed. And I think from
- 27:51Speaker 5: a political standpoint, I think you hit on something. If
- 27:53Speaker 5: you address these things in term of the effects to
- 27:56Speaker 5: you or to I, you'll get a much better play
- 28:02Speaker 5: and feel for how– bad all of this you know
- 28:06Speaker 5: can be but that's you know typically where you find
- 28:09Speaker 5: me and then these mornings on these Tuesdays you're finding
- 28:13Speaker 5: me at home base on 94.9 news and stimulating.
- 28:17Speaker 1: Talk all right brother listen great job as always thanks
- 28:20Speaker 1: for pulling the double duty today I'll talk to you
- 28:22Speaker 1: down the road but have a great night Tony D'Angelo
- 28:24Speaker 1: Tony D always fantastic stuff with him all right so
- 28:28Speaker 1: we have been talking about national issues and we just
- 28:32Speaker 1: spent some time talking about a Connecticut issue I want
- 28:35Speaker 1: to tell you guys about something else happening in Connecticut,
- 28:38Speaker 1: but it's also happening in other municipalities around the country,
- 28:42Speaker 1: and that's illegal aliens as police officers. I'm not making
- 28:46Speaker 1: it up. I'll share a little bit of info on
- 28:48Speaker 1: that when we come back. Plus, I'll tell you some
- 28:51Speaker 1: other things. I'll tell you why you should probably vote
- 28:53Speaker 1: Republican as opposed to Democrat when we come back. Stick around.
- 28:56Speaker 1: My name is Lee Elsie. You can watch what's going
- 28:58Speaker 1: on at the Gateway Pundit, all of Wayne's socials. And

- 29:06Speaker 1: We'll come right back. Hang on.
- 29:19Speaker 5: All right.

- 30:01Speaker 3: axiom is really very simple. For 41 years, we've been

- 30:13Speaker 6: And we've expanded. We have manufacturing plants.

- 30:22Speaker 3: best price from Great Patriot Store, in most cases, we
- 30:25Speaker 3: can deliver to your front door even faster than Amazon.
- 30:30Speaker 2: So prices are high everywhere.
- 30:32Speaker 4: Procter & Gamble and Amazon are considering price increases.
- 30:36Speaker 1: How do the prices of Great.
- 30:37Speaker 2: Patriot Store compare to national brands?
- 30:40Speaker 3: Well, we've got hundreds of products, Wayne, but if you
- 30:43Speaker 3: just take a look at one like our laundry detergent,
- 30:45Speaker 3: we make it. It's patented, and it's literally almost fractions,
- 30:49Speaker 3: almost half the price of our competitors, and you get
- 30:53Speaker 3: 96 loads of wash.
- 30:54Speaker 6: It's the best value.
- 30:55Speaker 3: There's no toxic chemicals in any of our products whatsoever.
- 30:59Speaker 3: And if you're looking to lose some of those holiday pounds,
- 31:01Speaker 3: you don't need the shots with the LPG-1 drugs.
- 31:04Speaker 6: We have something called Berberine. Nature's Ozempic is what people
- 31:08Speaker 6: are calling it.
- 31:09Speaker 2: It's legit.
- 31:10Speaker 6: It works.
- 31:10Speaker 3: And we've got it at a better price than anybody,
- 31:13Speaker 3: any of our competitors.

- 34:56Speaker 1: to do what I call like a little rip and
- 34:57Speaker 1: read in my own show. I just kind of, I
- 35:00Speaker 1: have all kinds of stuff. And then I go one
- 35:03Speaker 1: after another, after another, after another. And that's how we
- 35:06Speaker 1: get through this break. That's how we're going to get
- 35:08Speaker 1: through the break here on this Tuesday afternoon slash evening
- 35:11Speaker 1: across this great country of ours. I had mentioned why
- 35:15Speaker 1: am I voting Republican?
- 35:17Speaker 3: Okay.
- 35:17Speaker 1: Okay. You get these memes from time to time, but
- 35:20Speaker 1: this one sort of struck me. And it's pretty straightforward.
- 35:25Speaker 1: Why am I voting Republican? Well, the Democrats want to
- 35:29Speaker 1: defund the police. I support the police. I back the blue.
- 35:36Speaker 1: I want to be behind the blue. They're behind us.
- 35:39Speaker 1: So when they need our help, I want to have
- 35:40Speaker 1: their back to get ours. So I'm behind the blue.
- 35:43Speaker 1: The Dems, they don't like the cops. Gun control. Democrats
- 35:48Speaker 1: love gun control. I'm for protecting your constitutional right. They
- 35:53Speaker 1: always want to chip away at that. We're for protecting
- 35:57Speaker 1: the constitutional right to bear arms. Pretty simple. Democrats want
- 36:04Speaker 1: open borders. They may say that that's not the case,
- 36:07Speaker 1: but clearly their actions dictate that they are in favor
- 36:12Speaker 1: of open borders. They celebrated Joe Biden. They looked the
- 36:15Speaker 1: other way when 15 million illegal aliens came across the
- 36:18Speaker 1: southern border. They looked the other way. By the way,
- 36:22Speaker 1: if you haven't noticed, that is having a drastic effect
- 36:26Speaker 1: on your everyday life. Talk about why prices of goods
- 36:29Speaker 1: and services are through the roof. Well, it's because you've
- 36:31Speaker 1: got 15 million people here. And many of them are
- 36:35Speaker 1: not skilled. So yeah, open borders. We don't want them
- 36:41Speaker 1: They love it. Illegal immigration. Obviously, we're for legal immigration.
- 36:47Speaker 1: I feel like I have to go through this every
- 36:48Speaker 1: single time we talk about this, but, you know, my
- 36:50Speaker 1: grandparents spoke the broken English, right? My grandmother couldn't read,
- 36:54Speaker 1: couldn't write in English, right? My name was L.I. until
- 36:58Speaker 1: the day she died. That's how she signed the cards, L.I.
- 37:03Speaker 1: So it's not as if I'm not for immigration. I'm
- 37:07Speaker 1: for legal immigration. There's a huge difference. I'm tired of
- 37:12Speaker 1: having the weight of somebody else's issues on my back.
- 37:18Speaker 1: If you're a Democrat, if you're a Republican, for that matter,
- 37:23Speaker 1: and you want to dig into your own pocket and
- 37:26Speaker 1: help out a family that needs help, then do it.
- 37:31Speaker 1: If you want to house somebody who's, let's say, an
- 37:34Speaker 1: asylum seeker and is waiting for a process, and legally here,
- 37:37Speaker 1: because if you're not legally here, you should be shipped
- 37:39Speaker 1: back to wherever you're from, but If you're in that
- 37:43Speaker 1: zone and you're somebody out there who fancies yourself a progressive,
- 37:46Speaker 1: take those people into your basement. Help them out. Give
- 37:49Speaker 1: them a stipend every week so they can go out
- 37:51Speaker 1: and get some food. I don't want to do it.
- 37:54Speaker 1: I can't afford it. But if you want to do
- 37:56Speaker 1: it and it makes you feel better, do it. Dig deep.
- 38:01Speaker 1: Be a charitable person. But you can't ask the rest
- 38:05Speaker 1: of us to burden or shoulder the burden for things
- 38:09Speaker 1: that we disagree with. Pretty simple. By the way, Democrats
- 38:14Speaker 1: are for higher taxes. Fact. Every time you turn around,
- 38:20Speaker 1: they want to slap another tax. I may say it's
- 38:22Speaker 1: for the rich, but we know how that works. It's
- 38:24Speaker 1: a trickle-down scenario. I would never vote for any tax increase, ever.
- 38:31Speaker 1: I can't imagine. I should never say never, but I
- 38:33Speaker 1: never would. I would never do it. No. I'm going
- 38:36Speaker 1: to say it. I would never do it. Because I
- 38:38Speaker 1: can never envision a scenario where I'd have to raise
- 38:41Speaker 1: somebody's taxes. I'd figure out what to cut first before
- 38:45Speaker 1: I'd raise your taxes. Democrats are, again, for the higher taxes.
- 38:50Speaker 1: I'm for tax breaks. Big government goes hand in hand
- 38:53Speaker 1: with the Democrat Party. I'm for small government, tiny government,
- 38:56Speaker 1: minuscule government, microscopic government. That's what I'm about. Socialism. I mean,
- 39:06Speaker 1: Democrats are leaning towards socialism. Capitalism isn't perfect, but man,
- 39:09Speaker 1: it's a whole lot better than socialism. I'll leave with
- 39:12Speaker 1: your socialism. ideals and we do do some socialist things.
- 39:15Speaker 1: It's true. That's a fact. I mean, your social security
- 39:20Speaker 1: is a socialist program. It doesn't really work that well.
- 39:25Speaker 1: Kind of underfunded and in danger of going out of business.
- 39:28Speaker 1: so but there's no place on earth where socialism has
- 39:31Speaker 1: actually worked and democrats are for this pseudo political correctness
- 39:37Speaker 1: where i'm for constitutional freedom those are just some of
- 39:40Speaker 1: the things that make them very much different than us
- 39:43Speaker 1: There is a gold-colored $ 1 Trump coin, which is now available,
- 39:48Speaker 1: but it'll cost you a little bit more than a buck,
- 39:49Speaker 1: I guess. I guess it costs you, well, 25-coin roll
- 39:51Speaker 1: costs $ 61. So is Trump charging $ 2. 02 for his Trump coin?
- 39:53Speaker 1: All right. I guess if you want him, go ahead
- 39:55Speaker 1: and go get him, I guess. We just talked about
- 40:09Speaker 1: this in the last break. Study finds a link between
- 40:12Speaker 1: increased cannabis use and people involved in traffic fatalities. That
- 40:17Speaker 1: happened in Connecticut. It's happening in other states that have
- 40:20Speaker 1: legalized cannabis and recreational marijuana. What did you expect to happen?
- 40:24Speaker 1: I mean, seriously. You get a bunch of people high
- 40:28Speaker 1: behind the wheel, right? Stupid behind the wheel. Dumb while driving,
- 40:32Speaker 1: of course. That's going to happen. I mean, it's common sense.
- 40:37Speaker 1: Gasoline prices over $ 4 a gallon. That's a record high
- 40:40Speaker 1: on Labor Day. That's not good. And I got to say,
- 40:42Speaker 1: you know, as we talk about politics, we try to
- 40:45Speaker 1: dissect politics. We live, breathe, and work through politics. It's
- 40:51Speaker 1: not good. Midterms, if the price of gasoline is over
- 40:55Speaker 1: $ 4 a gallon when midterms come rolling around, it could
- 41:00Speaker 1: be lights out. Republican Party, let's go around. You know,
- 41:03Speaker 1: people vote with their pocketbooks. So somehow, someway, Trump has
- 41:07Speaker 1: to figure out how to lower those gas prices. Apparently
- 41:11Speaker 1: there's a road, open road link between Russia and North Korea.
- 41:16Speaker 1: They say it's the first road link across the shared
- 41:19Speaker 1: border ever. I find that interesting. There's so many things
- 41:23Speaker 1: going on that we don't know about. Trump wants to
- 41:27Speaker 1: change New Mexico now maybe to New America. He just
- 41:35Speaker 1: tries to alienate everybody. There's no way you can mean that, right?
- 41:39Speaker 1: Change the state name to New America. Welcome to New America.
- 41:46Speaker 1: All right, save this one for last. Is somebody smarter
- 41:50Speaker 1: than me? Please explain this one to me because I
- 41:54Speaker 1: would really like to understand this better. So I'm focusing
- 42:00Speaker 1: a lot on Connecticut because there's a lot of news
- 42:02Speaker 1: in Connecticut today. But this has happened... in other municipalities
- 42:06Speaker 1: across the country as well. So non-citizen police officers are
- 42:11Speaker 1: approved after a Democrat says ICE invasion to the state
- 42:17Speaker 1: of Connecticut is sending the wrong message. So the mayor
- 42:20Speaker 1: of Danbury, Connecticut now is hiring illegal aliens as part
- 42:25Speaker 1: of the police force. Now, if I'm pulled over by
- 42:29Speaker 1: an illegal alien and they're trying to give me a
- 42:31Speaker 1: ticket for speeding, I'm sorry. There are so many things
- 42:35Speaker 1: wrong with that picture. What are we doing? What is
- 42:40Speaker 1: wrong with this country? Why is it that we insist
- 42:43Speaker 1: upon going down this road? It's the same idea when
- 42:46Speaker 1: we talk about the Muslim invasion in a place like
- 42:49Speaker 1: Ground Zero in New York City. We have got elected
- 42:53Speaker 1: officials wearing hijabs on a day, ultimately on a day
- 42:59Speaker 1: where we will... Remember the 25th anniversary of the most
- 43:03Speaker 1: horrific thing that ever happened on our soil. What is
- 43:07Speaker 1: wrong with us? An internet sensation. who pops up on
- 43:12Speaker 1: my feed, I think capture the illegal cops best. And
- 43:15Speaker 1: I want to play it for you.
- 43:16Speaker 7: The mayor of Danbury, Connecticut, who admitted he was an
- 43:19Speaker 7: illegal alien now says that the city will hire illegal
- 43:22Speaker 7: aliens as police officers work through that one because I'm
- 43:26Speaker 7: being entirely serious. So the Danbury city council just voted
- 43:29Speaker 7: to allow non-citizen legal permanent residents and illegal aliens who
- 43:33Speaker 7: were brought to the United States unlawfully as children to
- 43:36Speaker 7: apply to become cops. Meaning that they're going to enforce
- 43:39Speaker 7: the law for American citizens without actually abiding by the
- 43:43Speaker 7: law themselves. Which apparently doesn't matter to the mayor because
- 43:46Speaker 7: he says he was an illegal alien once so he
- 43:48Speaker 7: can relate.
- 43:49Speaker 1: I grew up undocumented. I got my citizenship in 2017.
- 43:53Speaker 1: These are my neighbors. These are folks who have that
- 43:55Speaker 1: shared experience I have.
- 43:56Speaker 7: Of breaking the law, which apparently is a great prerequisite
- 44:00Speaker 7: to becoming the mayor or a cop. By the way,
- 44:02Speaker 7: in case you didn't already know, 30 other Connecticut municipalities
- 44:05Speaker 7: already allow illegal aliens to become police officers.
- 44:08Speaker 2: 30.
- 44:08Speaker 1: Can you believe that? So I'll ask somebody out there
- 44:12Speaker 1: who's smarter than me. How does that work? How is
- 44:17Speaker 1: somebody who is not a legal citizen, not a resident
- 44:22Speaker 1: of a country, How is that person carrying handcuffs and
- 44:25Speaker 1: a gun and a badge and can go, let's say,
- 44:28Speaker 1: to a domestic violence dispute someplace and arrest somebody or
- 44:33Speaker 1: pull a car over who's speeding or go try to
- 44:37Speaker 1: track down somebody who's committed a crime? How on the
- 44:41Speaker 1: heck does that work? How does it work? I don't know.
- 44:46Speaker 1: I don't know, man. It's one of those things that
- 44:51Speaker 1: it seems completely void of any semblance of common sense
- 44:56Speaker 1: any all right by the way um what are you
- 45:00Speaker 1: guys doing for 9-11 25th anniversary not to pat ourselves
- 45:06Speaker 1: on the back that's by no means why i'm bringing
- 45:09Speaker 1: this up but we do i've done this i think
- 45:12Speaker 1: it's an amazing show every major anniversary of 9-11 i
- 45:15Speaker 1: have uh Multiple hours of audio from folks either who
- 45:20Speaker 1: were there or who, you know, what they did that
- 45:22Speaker 1: day and how it affected them and what they were
- 45:24Speaker 1: doing and what their family was doing and all of that.
- 45:27Speaker 1: So self-promote. If you guys want to tune in, we
- 45:29Speaker 1: got 12 continuous 9-11 hour, 9-11 coverage, anniversary coverage on
- 45:37Speaker 1: my show, 94.9. So if you go on 949newsnow. com and
- 45:41Speaker 1: you want to tune into something that's going on on
- 45:43Speaker 1: the radio, I think it's a show unlike any other show.
- 45:46Speaker 1: that has ever come on the radio. Basically, it's just
- 45:48Speaker 1: one person after another after another with some audio clips
- 45:52Speaker 1: mixed in between of where they were that day. Just
- 45:54Speaker 1: regular people, where they were. I mean, the governor will
- 45:57Speaker 1: come on, congressmen will come on, and senators will come on.
- 45:59Speaker 1: But in between all of that, you'll just hear regular
- 46:03Speaker 1: people who were going about their day, having coffee, and
- 46:05Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the world that they knew changed drastically.
- 46:09Speaker 1: So anyway, if you have any questions about that, like
- 46:11Speaker 1: I said, if you want to email me, leelcradio at gmail.com.
- 46:15Speaker 1: I would love to give you the information on that.
- 46:17Speaker 1: If you're watching the show or listening or however you

- 46:40Speaker 1: he'll be ready to rock and roll. I want to

- 46:57Speaker 1: Have a great day.
- 47:01Speaker 4: All right, I'm joined by Kip Herridge, my old buddy
- 47:03Speaker 4: and an economic expert CEO.
- 47:06Speaker 2: Of Vertical Research Advisory. His website, vrainsider.com.
- 47:11Speaker 4: As I've explained on this show so many times, VRA
- 47:13Speaker 4: has beaten the market in 19 of the last 22 years.
- 47:17Speaker 4: since Kip founded the VRA in 2003. Over the last
- 47:20Speaker 4: three years, VRA had an average gain of 37%. Kip,
- 47:25Speaker 4: congratulations on your success. I've seen it firsthand for over
- 47:28Speaker 4: 22 years. I've read your newsletter for the last 22
- 47:31Speaker 4: plus years. You're my personal financial expert. How do you
- 47:35Speaker 4: guys keep beating the markets almost every year when 90%
- 47:39Speaker 4: of Wall Street money managers fail to do so?
- 47:43Speaker 1: Well, thanks, Wayne.
- 47:44Speaker 8: I worked in that environment 15 years, worked at Wall
- 47:46Speaker 8: Street 15 years, helped take seven companies public, raised and
- 47:49Speaker 8: managed several hundred million dollars. And I know how the
- 47:52Speaker 8: group think of Wall Street works, and that's not how.
- 47:54Speaker 1: People make money.
- 47:55Speaker 8: 90% of money managers, you say, don't beat the markets
- 47:58Speaker 8: every year.
- 47:59Speaker 1: We do.
- 48:00Speaker 8: And the reason really is I had great mentors that
- 48:03Speaker 8: helped me to create what we call our VRA investing system.
- 48:06Speaker 8: It's our proprietary market timing, and sector selection system. It
- 48:11Speaker 8: tells us when to be in the market, when to
- 48:12Speaker 8: be out, when to be aggressive, and when to take
- 48:15Speaker 8: some profits. It takes money to cash. And that helps
- 48:19Speaker 8: us with our sector selection. Again, market timing, those are
- 48:22Speaker 8: real keys. And we also love doing individual stock research.
- 48:25Speaker 8: So that's where you put our clients and subscribers into
- 48:28Speaker 8: and get ETFs, individual stocks. And we also love Bitcoin
- 48:33Speaker 8: and gold, as you know.
- 48:34Speaker 1: And silver.
- 48:35Speaker 8: In 2003, I recommended gold at $ 350 an ounce.
- 48:38Speaker 1: Silver at $ 5.
- 48:39Speaker 8: We recommended Bitcoin at $ 2, 000 in 2017. And combined with
- 48:45Speaker 8: those three, we're up over 4,000% in gains for 40
- 48:48Speaker 8: times your money for our subscribers. So we do things
- 48:51Speaker 8: a little differently. Fifth and sixth generation native Texans. And
- 48:55Speaker 8: we love what we do here in Texas.
- 48:57Speaker 4: Well, I'm a witness to all of it. I've been
- 48:58Speaker 4: there for all of it. There's a lot of fear
- 49:00Speaker 4: out there today, Kip. What do investors know about the
- 49:02Speaker 4: stock market right now?
- 49:04Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to be in this market. That's what
- 49:05Speaker 1: investors should know. Look, volatility is the price of a vision.
- 49:09Speaker 1: It just is. It comes with the territory.
- 49:11Speaker 8: But these dips give us great buying opportunities. Look, we've
- 49:14Speaker 8: been the most bullish market strategist in America for the
- 49:16Speaker 8: last four years.
- 49:18Speaker 1: We call this the.
- 49:19Speaker 8: innovation revolution meets the Trump economic miracle meets an absolute
- 49:24Speaker 8: ocean of liquidity.
- 49:24Speaker 1: Those are our big three.
- 49:26Speaker 8: Again, Trump's economic miracle this year is really going to
- 49:29Speaker 8: start paying its dues.
- 49:30Speaker 1: We expect GDP growth to hit 5% this year.
- 49:32Speaker 8: We expect the markets to, we think the full market
- 49:35Speaker 8: runs into the 2030s.
