• 0:11
  Speaker 1: on the Talk media network.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: J Worts at steal me step.
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: You have a day at least for work, when the
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: sun comes up, drops a kid to school on the way.
• 0:23
  Speaker 4: Joys everything all the jas needs, no wonder.
• 0:29
  Speaker 5: Joe's as smile, he only as.
• 0:36
  Speaker 6: Joe.
• 0:36
  Speaker 7: Thank you for letting me be of service to you
• 0:38
  Speaker 7: this morning. I want to be on the program that
• 0:42
  Speaker 7: tells you what went on last night. We'll chop off
• 0:46
  Speaker 7: the results into easily digestible gummies, and then after you've
• 0:50
  Speaker 7: settled into your comfortable state, we'll weigh in on how
• 0:57
  Speaker 7: it's impacting you where you are. You can text mess
• 1:00
  Speaker 7: those results to four three four eight eight two four
• 1:03
  Speaker 7: two one seven, or you can telephone call to that
• 1:07
  Speaker 7: number as well. As Joel has done, he's making boat
• 1:10
  Speaker 7: drinks this morning in Florida. Uh, the boys in the
• 1:13
  Speaker 7: band want boat drinks to Joel. How are you doing
• 1:15
  Speaker 7: this morning?
• 1:17
  Speaker 8: I'm doing okay, I'm weird. I like cold coffee. Even
• 1:22
  Speaker 8: if it's cold out.
• 1:23
  Speaker 7: You've got to fight cold with more cold. You've got
• 1:26
  Speaker 7: to be the cold. So what's on your mind.
• 1:31
  Speaker 9: Well, elections have consequences, and the I hope I make
• 1:38
  Speaker 9: this differentiation. The Democrats, a lot of the what I
• 1:44
  Speaker 9: don't know if there's leadership, but a lot of them
• 1:46
  Speaker 9: that are the ones that want people to get out
• 1:48
  Speaker 9: and vote, look at their.
• 1:51
  Speaker 8: Constituents as numbers.
• 1:52
  Speaker 9: They don't really look at them as now, the numbers
• 1:56
  Speaker 9: are valuable. But the Republicans and then some of the
• 1:59
  Speaker 9: independ voters actually believe that their voters are more than
• 2:04
  Speaker 9: numbers there. They're people that are productive in the community.
• 2:08
  Speaker 9: They're people that are representative of businesses and things that
• 2:13
  Speaker 9: are going to actually bring things into the area. Sure,
• 2:15
  Speaker 9: whereas that the Democrats look at the numbers as like
• 2:19
  Speaker 9: I said, just getting things done, and then you're the
• 2:21
  Speaker 9: useful idiots.
• 2:22
  Speaker 8: We're done with you.
• 2:24
  Speaker 9: But they rant it or or they look at them
• 2:27
  Speaker 9: as as a flashy thing to wear, you know, like
• 2:30
  Speaker 9: the Hollywood thing.
• 2:32
  Speaker 10: Look at me. I think some of them are.
• 2:35
  Speaker 7: Some of them look at them as proofs, like you
• 2:38
  Speaker 7: know we used to do in mathematics.
• 2:41
  Speaker 10: You'd have to show the professor your proofs.
• 2:45
  Speaker 7: And and so I think this is the this is
• 2:49
  Speaker 7: the proof in their mind that their mandates are mandates.
• 2:56
  Speaker 7: Because they won an election with forty five percent of
• 2:59
  Speaker 7: the population voting, and they got fifty point five percent
• 3:02
  Speaker 7: of it, that becomes a mandate. Whereas the rest of
• 3:06
  Speaker 7: us sit here and say, well, what happened to the
• 3:09
  Speaker 7: other fifty five percent of the voters? What didn't they hear?
• 3:13
  Speaker 7: Why aren't they engaged? Because you really look at polls
• 3:17
  Speaker 7: and how people live, most of Americans don't agree with
• 3:21
  Speaker 7: the socialist agenda of the Fabian Democrats or even the
• 3:25
  Speaker 7: Marxist Democrats.
• 3:28
  Speaker 8: Right, So if you look at the I agree.
• 3:30
  Speaker 9: So if you look at the captured audience, and it's
• 3:33
  Speaker 9: mainly these crazy and I hate to divide groups, but
• 3:37
  Speaker 9: that's what the Democrats like to do. But the white
• 3:41
  Speaker 9: educated women and their infiltration the Democratic Party and the
• 3:46
  Speaker 9: squads and all that stuff. But we have, we have,
• 3:50
  Speaker 9: we had a youth movement which Hofley is growing with
• 3:53
  Speaker 9: Charlie kirk you know Charlie Kirkins.
• 3:55
  Speaker 7: Well that's why they're working so hard to attack it,
• 3:58
  Speaker 7: with Candace Owens and Mark Levin and Erica Kirk, and
• 4:01
  Speaker 7: this whole battle Royal is meant to divide that youth movement,
• 4:05
  Speaker 7: movement that was the key.
• 4:06
  Speaker 10: To killing Charlie real quick. We got about twenty seconds.
• 4:10
  Speaker 9: But to wrap this all up, the Republicans need to
• 4:15
  Speaker 9: have that energy. They need to keep it up. They
• 4:17
  Speaker 9: think when the fight is started, they're done with it.
• 4:21
  Speaker 9: And the Democrats are constant. They're like the nap that
• 4:23
  Speaker 9: hits the back of your ear and wants to go
• 4:25
  Speaker 9: inside your ear.
• 4:27
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I've had them. Thank you, Joel. I appreciate that.
• 4:31
  Speaker 7: I will unpack some of that because Joe made a
• 4:34
  Speaker 7: really prescient point there. But we are up against the clock,
• 4:37
  Speaker 7: as is the nature and news radio because I do
• 4:40
  Speaker 7: still need to tell you what went.
• 4:41
  Speaker 10: On last night.
• 4:43
  Speaker 7: The Iranians have laid out a kinetic war plan that
• 4:50
  Speaker 7: would have them using asymmetric warfare to counteract America's military superiority.
• 4:57
  Speaker 7: This report was published in the UK Tell Telegraph, originally
• 5:01
  Speaker 7: published by the pr outfit connected to the Iranian Islamic
• 5:07
  Speaker 7: Revolutionary Guard Corps. I guess sources are sources. The nuclear
• 5:14
  Speaker 7: arms packed between the former Soviet Union still Russia and
• 5:19
  Speaker 7: the United States expired last night at midnight, and President
• 5:23
  Speaker 7: Trump said on truth Social quote rather than extend new Start,
• 5:28
  Speaker 7: parenthetically a badly negotiated deal by the United States that,
• 5:33
  Speaker 7: aside from everything else, is being grossly violated close parentheses.
• 5:37
  Speaker 7: We should have our nuclear experts work on new, improved,
• 5:41
  Speaker 7: modernized treaty that can last long into the future. The
• 5:46
  Speaker 7: Trump administration is rescinding more than one point five billion
• 5:50
  Speaker 7: dollars of grants and funding to Democrat run states, saying
• 5:55
  Speaker 7: that these states are guilty of waste and mismanagement federal
• 6:00
  Speaker 7: taxpayer funds. Speaking of waste and mismanagement, Zorhan Mamdani's administration,
• 6:06
  Speaker 7: not even a month old, is struggling to keep the
• 6:09
  Speaker 7: water running in public housing. Tenants are blaming failures in
• 6:16
  Speaker 7: Gracie Mansion, which is where the New York Mayor lives,
• 6:20
  Speaker 7: for issues with heat and hot water in the coldest
• 6:25
  Speaker 7: months of the year. The World Economic Forum has launched
• 6:28
  Speaker 7: an independent investigation to its CEO to clarify relations that
• 6:34
  Speaker 7: borge Brendi had with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, including email
• 6:39
  Speaker 7: exchanges and speaking of the Start treaty, US and Russia
• 6:44
  Speaker 7: have begun high level military dialogues, in this case specifically
• 6:48
  Speaker 7: about the fighting in Ukraine, but they're hoping to expand
• 6:54
  Speaker 7: beyond that into the Salt negotiations. And those are some
• 6:57
  Speaker 7: of our first things this Friday month.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: Let's see if something costs less a lot less, but
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: people are actually happier with it. That sounds like something
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: to look into. And that's meta share. Maybe you've heard
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: joining metashare can save you or your family up to
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: five hundred bucks a month, and that's huge, but it's
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: also true. People are just happier with it. They love
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: being part of something that reflects and promotes their values
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: and what they believe in. Meda Share works too. It's
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: been around for thirty years now and members have shared
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: more than seven billion dollars of each other's bills. People
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: love having telehealth and a huge nationwide PPO network. So yeah, really,
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: you can save a ton and like it better. Imagine
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: being happy with how you're taking care of your health care,
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: whether you're self employed or part of the gig economy,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: or you just want to plan that you're happy with.

  Speaker 11: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas, Yes,
• 8:08
  Speaker 11: actually three known gas is I I'm doctor Mitch, and
• 8:13
  Speaker 11: nitric oxide is a gas that's readily made all day
• 8:17
  Speaker 11: long to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood

• 13:14
  Speaker 1: First thing today.
• 13:20
  Speaker 10: Well, no, I don't, No, I'm not the one.
• 13:26
  Speaker 23: No change it isn't.
• 13:44
  Speaker 7: It's the greatest story ever told, and we're living it
• 13:48
  Speaker 7: every day, my friend said k p p F and
• 13:57
  Speaker 7: up in Port Collins as well. Uh, and even down
• 14:00
  Speaker 7: the four corners. I appreciate our Colorado friends there who.
• 14:05
  Speaker 10: I believe are also part.
• 14:06
  Speaker 7: Of this redistricting mania going on in gripping America. Right now,
• 14:11
  Speaker 7: Virginia in the national headlines because yesterday the Democrat majority
• 14:18
  Speaker 7: showed exactly what jerry mandering looks like. If you've ever
• 14:22
  Speaker 7: wondered what Jerry did with his maps to get him
• 14:26
  Speaker 7: and Elbridge is really the source of it. All these
• 14:31
  Speaker 7: maps are a master class in it. They announced the maps.
• 14:35
  Speaker 7: There is some peril, there is some realities to Virginia
• 14:38
  Speaker 7: that aren't the same in Colorado or California or Texas.
• 14:42
  Speaker 10: We need I know. I asked you to get me
• 14:45
  Speaker 10: a list. Yeah, you about the states that don't have
• 14:49
  Speaker 10: partisan party registration? Do you have that? All right, Well,
• 14:53
  Speaker 10: I'm going to jump to our guest on the phone.
• 14:55
  Speaker 7: You get me that list of states that don't require
• 14:58
  Speaker 7: party registration when registered to vote like Virginia does, because
• 15:02
  Speaker 7: we don't. But a member, former member of the US
• 15:05
  Speaker 7: House of Representatives, so he understands the those counts that
• 15:09
  Speaker 7: are going into these maps, but as also trying to
• 15:11
  Speaker 7: lead the charge again them in the Virginia General Assembly.
• 15:15
  Speaker 10: Is our friend Tom Garrett and Tom, Good morning, sir.
• 15:18
  Speaker 10: How are you doing today, Joe?
• 15:21
  Speaker 24: I think if there's a silver lining to any of this,
• 15:23
  Speaker 24: instead getting a former Republican member of the US House
• 15:27
  Speaker 24: of Representatives on the radio show might just get a
• 15:30
  Speaker 24: whole lot easier.
• 15:33
  Speaker 10: Are you Are you thinking that your district could be
• 15:36
  Speaker 10: in peril next?
• 15:38
  Speaker 21: Well?
• 15:38
  Speaker 24: I mean, look, I'm pulling for all the Republicans in this.
• 15:43
  Speaker 21: It's not because they're.
• 15:44
  Speaker 24: Republicans, but because I think people's boats should actually be
• 15:47
  Speaker 24: representative of the people that live in areas. You know,
• 15:50
  Speaker 24: call me crazy, crazy, but yeah, it's thank you. It's
• 15:55
  Speaker 24: been said before. It's it's just you know, we said this.
• 16:02
  Speaker 24: We had a post on Delegate Tom Garrett on Facebook,
• 16:04
  Speaker 24: which you really should be following, whether you're in Virginia
• 16:06
  Speaker 24: or not. We had a post yesterday that showed the
• 16:09
  Speaker 24: new maps and said democrats circa eighteen eighty, Hey, let's
• 16:14
  Speaker 24: disenfranchise people Democrats circa twenty twenty six. Hold my beier,
• 16:19
  Speaker 24: I mean, this is this is the hubrious You have
• 16:25
  Speaker 24: to laugh at it, right, I mean, ultimately, we have
• 16:27
  Speaker 24: to recognize that we won't always be here and the
• 16:30
  Speaker 24: gods in charge, and no matter what happens, if we
• 16:34
  Speaker 24: do things right on the airplane, we're really going to
• 16:37
  Speaker 24: enjoy the trip when we get there.
• 16:39
  Speaker 21: So this is just it's literally insane.
• 16:43
  Speaker 7: Well, so here's the thing. So a lot of our
• 16:46
  Speaker 7: friends in the commentariat are saying, look at these maps,
• 16:49
  Speaker 7: they're all majority Democrat seats. And the reason I brought
• 16:52
  Speaker 7: up the fact that Virginia doesn't register to vote by
• 16:55
  Speaker 7: party is they're basing this on last year's election. And
• 16:59
  Speaker 7: last year's allction number one had a voter turnout statewide
• 17:02
  Speaker 7: of about fifty two percent, and it went really badly
• 17:07
  Speaker 7: for Republicans.
• 17:08
  Speaker 10: So if you use those.
• 17:09
  Speaker 21: Numbers, I already knew that.
• 17:11
  Speaker 7: Well, yeah, you live it every day in the General Assembly.
• 17:15
  Speaker 7: But if you base your theorem on those numbers, you're
• 17:21
  Speaker 7: of course going to say, well, it's ten congressional seats
• 17:23
  Speaker 7: that are going to flip to the Democrats. But I
• 17:27
  Speaker 7: went and I did some back of the Napkin math here,
• 17:31
  Speaker 7: and I've only done five of the districts that they're
• 17:34
  Speaker 7: pointing to, five of the eleven, and in each case.
• 17:40
  Speaker 7: Their premise that these are all fifty two to fifty
• 17:43
  Speaker 7: five to fifty six percent Democrat majority precincts doesn't pencil out.
• 17:48
  Speaker 7: If you go back to the twenty twenty one gubernatorial
• 17:52
  Speaker 7: election that Glenn Youngkin won, several of them aren't even
• 17:55
  Speaker 7: Democrat majorities anymore. So I think there is a great
• 18:00
  Speaker 7: opportunity if the court cases in Virginia aren't upheld in
• 18:05
  Speaker 7: the Supreme Court. We had Ken Couchinelli on last week
• 18:09
  Speaker 7: who said he believes that they will be upheld the
• 18:13
  Speaker 7: battle against this premise. Maybe these maps help the judges
• 18:17
  Speaker 7: look at them and go, oh, this is this is
• 18:19
  Speaker 7: not eier than a bag of corn meal. That even
• 18:26
  Speaker 7: in that case, you've got districts that were never in
• 18:29
  Speaker 7: play before that are fifty to fifty all of a sudden,
• 18:33
  Speaker 7: if you base it on the twenty twenty election results,
• 18:36
  Speaker 7: and even if twenty twenty one, and even in some
• 18:40
  Speaker 7: cases newly created Republican majority precincts. Am I am I
• 18:45
  Speaker 7: just being a Pollyanna about it?
• 18:47
  Speaker 25: Tom, Yes, thanks, I mean let me say this, I
• 18:53
  Speaker 25: mean just from life experience, you know, as the Democrats
• 18:57
  Speaker 25: like to say it, my.
• 18:58
  Speaker 21: Own liveth experience.
• 18:59
  Speaker 24: You know I've been cocky and I've been humble, and
• 19:03
  Speaker 24: better things tend to happen when I'm humble. So maybe
• 19:08
  Speaker 24: there's a lesson coming here for some people on the
• 19:10
  Speaker 24: other side of the aisle. But I think this is
• 19:13
  Speaker 24: all about twenty twenty seven. Republicans in Virginia are going
• 19:18
  Speaker 24: to underperform when when Donald Trump's in the White House,
• 19:21
  Speaker 24: whether we like it or not. I happen to very
• 19:24
  Speaker 24: much like the guy and think he's doing an exceptional job.
• 19:26
  Speaker 24: The lowest murder rate since nineteen hundred. Wow, right, and
• 19:30
  Speaker 24: your drug overdose deaths have gone. I mean, there's never
• 19:34
  Speaker 24: been a drop like to drop in drug overdose those tests.
• 19:36
  Speaker 24: Let me digress for a second. The New York Times
• 19:39
  Speaker 24: headline is lowest murder rate in one hundred and twenty
• 19:41
  Speaker 24: six years. No one really knows why. I would like
• 19:44
  Speaker 24: to explain it to them if they'd like. But anyway,
• 19:48
  Speaker 24: just the lemmings, you're running the ship. The movie Idiocracy
• 19:52
  Speaker 24: has become a cautionary tale. It's like Jonathan Swift or Voltail,
• 19:56
  Speaker 24: but for the twenty first century. And so you say
• 19:59
  Speaker 24: Donald Trump, and people don't dig deep.
• 20:01
  Speaker 21: Enough to understand what the truth is.
• 20:04
  Speaker 24: And so they, at least in Virginia reflexively recoil against it.
• 20:11
  Speaker 24: It's I think that that they're going to get their
• 20:14
  Speaker 24: ten seats if this goes through. I'm optimistic that the
• 20:17
  Speaker 24: courts are going to put the brakes on it too,
• 20:19
  Speaker 24: but we'll see. But you know, again, I mean, this
• 20:24
  Speaker 24: really just underscores the fact that if you care about
• 20:30
  Speaker 24: your natural law right to defend yourself, your family, and
• 20:33
  Speaker 24: your freedom, if you care about the life of God's
• 20:37
  Speaker 24: most sacred creation, the innocent child in utero, then then
• 20:43
  Speaker 24: maybe you should vote. We had the votes in a
• 20:47
  Speaker 24: D plus thirty district to pick up de plus thirty,
• 20:50
  Speaker 24: but we had to vote in a special election to
• 20:52
  Speaker 24: pick up a Senate seat that would have stopped all
• 20:54
  Speaker 24: of this in January, and their people turned out in
• 20:58
  Speaker 24: ours didn't. So what is it?
• 21:03
  Speaker 10: What do they have to say?
• 21:04
  Speaker 7: You know, and I'm gonna ask kind of an abstract
• 21:06
  Speaker 7: question because you've seen it. You've been in the House,
• 21:10
  Speaker 7: you've been in this Virginia Senate, you've been in the
• 21:12
  Speaker 7: Virginia House, you've been in the US House. What is
• 21:16
  Speaker 7: it that's not You have won every election you've ever
• 21:20
  Speaker 7: been in. What needs to be said to get people,
• 21:25
  Speaker 7: and I'm going to hang on to you for a
• 21:26
  Speaker 7: second here because my cruel mistress, the clock on the
• 21:30
  Speaker 7: wall is going to crimp us a little bit here.
• 21:33
  Speaker 7: But we're visiting Tom Garrett. What's the Twitter handle you
• 21:36

  Speaker 7: Joining us on the newsmaker's line before we get back
• 28:30
  Speaker 7: to Tom Garrett from the Virginia General Assembly talking about
• 28:35
  Speaker 7: this redistricting craziness. Is our friend James Luck of j
• 28:40
  Speaker 7: csgold dot com. James, good morning, Sure, how are you doing?
• 28:45
  Speaker 6: I'm doing well.
• 28:46
  Speaker 32: Joe and Gold continue their wild ride at the moment.
• 28:50
  Speaker 32: Gold Silver actually got down to a low of sixty
• 28:56
  Speaker 32: four dollars in the middle of the night last night,
• 29:00
  Speaker 32: which is hard to believe, and it's currently at seventy
• 29:03
  Speaker 32: four dollars and fifty cents, which is right about where
• 29:06
  Speaker 32: it finished the day yesterday, technically up about five percent
• 29:10
  Speaker 32: of three and a half dollars to seventy four to fifty.
• 29:13
  Speaker 32: Gold is holding strong, up two percent of one hundred
• 29:16
  Speaker 32: dollars so far this morning to four thousand, eight hundred
• 29:20
  Speaker 32: and eighty one dollars, just below that five thousand dollars mark.
• 29:24
  Speaker 8: We will see where gold goes.
• 29:27
  Speaker 33: Wou'd be great to see it back about five k
• 29:29
  Speaker 33: that's for sure.
• 29:30
  Speaker 7: Well, certainly, and certainly the folks can talk to you
• 29:33
  Speaker 7: about this kind of volatility because just as much as
• 29:37
  Speaker 7: the constant increase in the value of silver or gold
• 29:41
  Speaker 7: might dissuade somebody based on oh, I mean I missed
• 29:45
  Speaker 7: the boat. Not true, but it's certainly a real feeling.
• 29:50
  Speaker 7: People who are like, oh, now the price is dropping,
• 29:53
  Speaker 7: I don't want to get into it now. They can
• 29:56
  Speaker 7: come to you for that kind of advice because you've
• 29:59
  Speaker 7: seen it since your grandfather opened the business back in
• 30:02
  Speaker 7: nineteen sixty one.
• 30:05
  Speaker 8: That's exactly right.
• 30:07
  Speaker 33: We have been in the business for a very long time,
• 30:10
  Speaker 33: through the through the all time highs in the eighties,
• 30:13
  Speaker 33: the all time highs in twenty eleven, and here in
• 30:18
  Speaker 33: twenty twenty five with the historic run up, and now
• 30:21
  Speaker 33: twenty twenty six.
• 30:22
  Speaker 8: We'll see where it goes.
• 30:23
  Speaker 32: But you're right, we have always been there to supply
• 30:27
  Speaker 32: gold and silver bullion to two investors, two stackers, so
• 30:31
  Speaker 32: where they can hold it, buy it and hold it
• 30:33
  Speaker 32: over time.
• 30:34
  Speaker 21: And it's something you can.
• 30:36
  Speaker 32: Pass down, you know, to generation to generation. And it's
• 30:40
  Speaker 32: as simple as me handing it to you.
• 30:44
  Speaker 34: You don't need a log in, you don't need a
• 30:46
  Speaker 34: bank account, you don't need a broker to do that.
• 30:49
  Speaker 34: That is a private transaction between family members. And that's
• 30:53
  Speaker 34: a great thing about gold and silver, and you know
• 30:56
  Speaker 34: it's it's this performances and great for a lot of clients.
• 31:01
  Speaker 32: And and you know we're just getting started. Well we'll
• 31:04
  Speaker 32: be here wherever silver ends out.
• 31:07
  Speaker 10: Next well and talk to them.
• 31:08
  Speaker 7: Before there was a start treaty and now after there's
• 31:12
  Speaker 7: a Star treaty. But you know, when the Cuban missile
• 31:14
  Speaker 7: crisis was the big story of the day, they are
• 31:17
  Speaker 7: the Jefferson coin shop jcsgold dot com or four three
• 31:22
  Speaker 7: four ninety seventy nine coin after ten Eastern James. You
• 31:27
  Speaker 7: have a great morning, sir, and thank you for everything
• 31:28
  Speaker 7: you do.
• 31:30
  Speaker 8: Thanks Joe.
• 31:32
  Speaker 7: Now get back to Tom Garrett from former congressman but
• 31:36
  Speaker 7: now member of this Virginia House that's facing this. I
• 31:38
  Speaker 7: also want to we've received some emails out of Florida
• 31:41
  Speaker 7: regarding the suit Eric Holder is filed against Governor DeSantis.
• 31:47
  Speaker 24: There, that's just I'm following you from Massachusetts. But don't
• 31:51
  Speaker 24: tell anybody, So tell you, Tom Jarrett. Well, I appreciate it.
• 31:56
  Speaker 7: So the abstract, you know what I wanted to get at, though, Tom,
• 32:00
  Speaker 7: is what is it that this forty fifty percent of
• 32:04
  Speaker 7: the population isn't hearing that, that isn't getting them out
• 32:08
  Speaker 7: to the polls.
• 32:10
  Speaker 24: Well, so if you you can do a lot of things,
• 32:13
  Speaker 24: If people lie to you constantly, you can believe them.
• 32:16
  Speaker 24: We call those people democrats. You can get angry. We
• 32:19
  Speaker 24: call those people Republicans, or you can just stop listening.
• 32:22
  Speaker 24: And we call those people the fifty percent that aren't
• 32:24
  Speaker 24: voting right. And so the whole thing we try to do.
• 32:28
  Speaker 24: And and so let me circle back to that. This
• 32:32
  Speaker 24: is this is really early reminiscent of post Civil War
• 32:37
  Speaker 24: Jim Crow era disenfranchise.
• 32:39
  Speaker 21: But you literally have a group of the.
• 32:41
  Speaker 24: Population who has intentionally decided to work within the quote
• 32:45
  Speaker 24: law unquote to sty me the voices to silence another
• 32:50
  Speaker 24: very large group of the population. And I think that's
• 32:52
  Speaker 24: antithetical to the American experience, of the American dream. The
• 32:55
  Speaker 24: voters need to think that, Okay, you just got to
• 32:58
  Speaker 24: communicate honestly with it and then they'll listen.
• 33:01
  Speaker 10: So is it a pox on both houses?
• 33:05
  Speaker 7: Is that what's happening with the folks throw up their
• 33:08
  Speaker 7: hands and say the hell with it.
• 33:10
  Speaker 10: I'm just gonna stash stuff in my base.
• 33:12
  Speaker 21: Republicans.
• 33:13
  Speaker 24: Democrats lie to you, and Republicans lack the courage to
• 33:15
  Speaker 24: tell you.
• 33:16
  Speaker 21: The truth, which is worse. Wow.
• 33:18
  Speaker 24: Right, So, I mean I did a speech on the
• 33:22
  Speaker 24: Second Amendment yesterday where I've pointed out that this it
• 33:25
  Speaker 24: was the slave Code literally that started gun control in
• 33:28
  Speaker 24: the United States. You weren't allowed to sell guns to
• 33:31
  Speaker 24: a person of African descent, you weren't allowed to sell
• 33:33
  Speaker 24: guns to indigenous people. And why because a group of
• 33:37
  Speaker 24: people decided that they didn't want the air quotes wrong
• 33:39
  Speaker 24: people unquote to have firearms because then they might be
• 33:43
  Speaker 24: able to defend themselves. Right, and everybody goes, Oh, you're
• 33:47
  Speaker 24: so brave to say it really was? I brave to
• 33:49
  Speaker 24: tell the truth. Well, I get censured. Have I sat
• 33:51
  Speaker 24: until last for every single bill that I've had heard
• 33:54
  Speaker 24: this session?
• 33:54
  Speaker 21: Yes?
• 33:54
  Speaker 24: And yes, I don't care. Well Jay Jones singled me
• 33:58
  Speaker 24: out for a malicious prosecute. What other people in me
• 34:02
  Speaker 24: have died from risk things? It doesn't I'm waiting for
• 34:05
  Speaker 24: them to excuse me of something I didn't do. It's
• 34:07
  Speaker 24: what happened for a while. I don't care, and and
• 34:10
  Speaker 24: and and so ultimately I'll be judged by by God.
• 34:13
  Speaker 24: And so why do I need to be afraid of man?
• 34:16
  Speaker 10: Yeah, that's that's that's the best.
• 34:18
  Speaker 21: Way to be.
• 34:19
  Speaker 24: That's what people want. People follow leaders. I'm trying to
• 34:22
  Speaker 24: lead well.
• 34:23
  Speaker 7: And that's the thing is we are all capable of
• 34:26
  Speaker 7: being leaders. And that's what I think from from where
• 34:30
  Speaker 7: I said. And maybe this is a more populous message
• 34:34
  Speaker 7: that I think. You know, we have to realize what
• 34:36
  Speaker 7: is being done, and that disenfranchisement is real and there
• 34:40
  Speaker 7: are many eddies and currents of it. But right now,
• 34:42
  Speaker 7: this is as you said in the last segment, here
• 34:45
  Speaker 7: hold my beer.
• 34:46
  Speaker 10: You know we've got it.
• 34:47
  Speaker 7: We're gonna you know, it's almost like the hair band
• 34:51
  Speaker 7: era of the eighties and early nineties. Live fast and
• 34:54
  Speaker 7: leave a good looking corpse. Last point, I want to
• 34:57
  Speaker 7: go back to twenty twenty six because impeaching the president,
• 35:02
  Speaker 7: removing him from office is all going to be on
• 35:04
  Speaker 7: the ballot if they take four seats away from Republicans
• 35:09
  Speaker 7: in Virginia and do it in other states. But I
• 35:12
  Speaker 7: think if we can get those other fifty people to
• 35:15
  Speaker 7: realize what's happening, the Republicans could actually take nine seats
• 35:22
  Speaker 7: in Virginia's congressional delegation, just based on the numbers that
• 35:27
  Speaker 7: turned out in twenty twenty one when Glenn Youngkin won
• 35:29
  Speaker 7: the governor's mansion.
• 35:31
  Speaker 10: Am I wrong?
• 35:31
  Speaker 21: I just don't. I yeah, I understand your point.
• 35:35
  Speaker 24: And if this was the young if this was twenty
• 35:37
  Speaker 24: twenty one and not twenty twenty seven coming up, oh boy, right.
• 35:42
  Speaker 24: But I just think that the historical trend show us
• 35:45
  Speaker 24: that if people spend a billion dollars screening Orangeman bad,
• 35:49
  Speaker 24: that tragically better than fifty one percent of Virginians go
• 35:52
  Speaker 24: ooh okay, at least.
• 35:54
  Speaker 21: Those who vote all right, we don't have it in mine.
• 35:56
  Speaker 21: Pursued by the people, but by the people who show up.
• 35:59
  Speaker 7: He is the man who who says, not only is
• 36:01
  Speaker 7: the glass half empty, but who the hell took the
• 36:03
  Speaker 7: other half? He is a Delegate Tom Carrott. What's the
• 36:06
  Speaker 7: Facebook and Twitter? And and uhto.
• 36:10
  Speaker 24: Delegate I'm telling y'all, I mean, please go and check
• 36:13
  Speaker 24: out the speakers on Facebook.
• 36:14
  Speaker 21: You will laugh and you might learn something.
• 36:18
  Speaker 24: Delegate Tom Garrett on Facebook and then Twitter is dell
• 36:22
  Speaker 24: t all one.
• 36:23
  Speaker 21: We're d e L. T. Garrett to our stts. I
• 36:27
  Speaker 21: don't really mind if you saw my name wrong, but
• 36:29
  Speaker 21: it doesn't help you.
• 36:32
  Speaker 7: See, this is what I have to learn about our
• 36:35
  Speaker 7: YouTube channel, Joe Thomas in America is I've got to
• 36:38
  Speaker 7: promote it, but I've got to.
• 36:39
  Speaker 10: Tell people you gotta like it because otherwise the Algorithm.
• 36:42
  Speaker 24: YouTube channel, our YouTube channel is coming soon, but that
• 36:45
  Speaker 24: is not an official channel.
• 36:46
  Speaker 21: And that one is Tom drops bombs on.
• 36:49
  Speaker 10: Tom drops Bombs. I like that one too. Uh And yes,
• 36:52
  Speaker 10: algorithm is supposed to rhyme with al Gore.
• 36:55
  Speaker 21: Uh.
• 36:55
  Speaker 10: You have a great morning, Tom. Thank you for everything.
• 36:58
  Speaker 21: Jo I love you. You're my friend.
• 37:00
  Speaker 10: God bless you so And a great contrast in styles.
• 37:06
  Speaker 10: I think there is.
• 37:09
  Speaker 7: The viewpoint that I wake up every morning is that
• 37:12
  Speaker 7: we can fix this. It isn't hard to fix it.
• 37:16
  Speaker 7: And Tom's right though equally that when you're dealing with
• 37:21
  Speaker 7: folks who are busy, and this is the importance of
• 37:27
  Speaker 7: our electronic media and why it is so important to
• 37:32
  Speaker 7: share stories with your friends. I know people are, oh,
• 37:35
  Speaker 7: I don't want to share this on social media. I'll
• 37:37
  Speaker 7: get canceled or whatever. Don't share something that says vote
• 37:40
  Speaker 7: for a Republican or a Democrat. Share something that says
• 37:44
  Speaker 7: is this voter suppression?
• 37:46
  Speaker 10: Pick up on that.
• 37:47
  Speaker 7: That's a great point that Tom used. Is this really
• 37:51
  Speaker 7: Jim Crow two point zero? Where we're disenfranchising huge swaths
• 37:56
  Speaker 7: of a population from their voice in the house and set.
• 38:02

  Speaker 35: I'm Jack Hannah, and it's always a boy. Growing up
• 41:02
  Speaker 35: on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
• 41:05
  Speaker 35: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
• 41:07
  Speaker 35: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
• 41:09
  Speaker 35: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
• 41:13
  Speaker 35: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
• 41:16
  Speaker 35: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
• 41:18
  Speaker 35: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
• 41:21
  Speaker 35: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
• 41:23
  Speaker 35: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
• 41:26
  Speaker 35: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
• 41:30
  Speaker 35: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
• 41:33
  Speaker 35: perform life saving work every day.

  Speaker 16: Dogs keep us safe at airports.

  Speaker 1: Putting the radio on is the first thing today.
• 44:16
  Speaker 4: Information wondering is really quite ferocious.
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: It's right.
• 44:20
  Speaker 4: I have to take them line and makes them sound
• 44:21
  Speaker 4: prepocious for seeing them in Congress or and mainstream. Now,
• 44:24
  Speaker 4: that's so this information's origins are slightly less atrocious. It's
• 44:30
  Speaker 4: how you hide a delighted lie. It's how you hide
• 44:32
  Speaker 4: a delighted lie.
• 44:34
  Speaker 16: Look at what they value, and look at their budget
• 44:36
  Speaker 16: and what they're proposing.
• 44:37
  Speaker 8: Romney wants to let it.
• 44:39
  Speaker 9: He said in the first hundred days, he's gonna let
• 44:41
  Speaker 9: the big banks once again write their.
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: Wrong rules on chain Wall Street.
• 44:49
  Speaker 9: You're gonna put y'all back in chains, y'all.
• 44:53
  Speaker 12: Uh.
• 44:53
  Speaker 7: And the best thing about Joe Biden was the fact
• 44:56
  Speaker 7: that the man didn't come equipped with a filter, so
• 44:59
  Speaker 7: that wasn't a malth prop That's just Joe unfiltered, and
• 45:04
  Speaker 7: it wasn't Alzheimer's. It was the fact that he never
• 45:07
  Speaker 7: had to worry about what he said. Delaware was always
• 45:11
  Speaker 7: going to send him back to the Senate. So by
• 45:13
  Speaker 7: the time he finally gets onto a national stage, he
• 45:16
  Speaker 7: doesn't know how to filter his speech. He just says stuff,
• 45:21
  Speaker 7: and sometimes he lets you look behind the curtain. That's
• 45:25
  Speaker 7: two point zero.
• 45:26
  Speaker 10: Jim Crow.
• 45:29
  Speaker 7: That's vote suppression, that's poll taxes. Is it a poll
• 45:33
  Speaker 7: tax you tell me at four three four eight eight
• 45:36
  Speaker 7: two four two one.
• 45:37
  Speaker 10: Seven to tell a resident of the Treasure Coast that
• 45:45
  Speaker 10: they're going to have.
• 45:46
  Speaker 7: To be lumped into a district potentially with somebody from.
• 45:53
  Speaker 10: Jacksonville.
• 45:55
  Speaker 7: We're going to stretch your district so far that there's
• 45:58
  Speaker 7: so many Democrats in it your vote will never possibly matter.
• 46:03
  Speaker 7: I think that's vote suppression, don't you. Is it vote
• 46:08
  Speaker 7: suppression to tell a news media outlet that you've created
• 46:17
  Speaker 7: these districts that are majority Democrat when you have no
• 46:21
  Speaker 7: way of knowing that, and nobody in the news media says,
• 46:25
  Speaker 7: but you have no way of knowing that outside of
• 46:27
  Speaker 7: previous election results. That's a poll tax. That's vote suppression.
• 46:38
  Speaker 7: Gene writes into four three four eight eight two four
• 46:42
  Speaker 7: two one seven. Listening to us up in Connecticut on
• 46:45
  Speaker 7: WGC eight, he said, I disagree with the premise that
• 46:52
  Speaker 7: orange man bad, but your guest's right. Every TV commercial,
• 46:58
  Speaker 7: every news story I see up here says orange man bad.
• 47:06
  Speaker 7: He goes on to write, at least ten percent, if
• 47:09
  Speaker 7: not more, of my friends still believe that Donald Trump
• 47:13
  Speaker 7: is getting ready to invade Greenland. Why do they do
• 47:18
  Speaker 7: it because it works? Why do they say these things
• 47:23
  Speaker 7: that they have no proof about over and over again
• 47:25
  Speaker 7: because it works, because it makes the message. You say
• 47:32
  Speaker 7: that Donald Trump is in Vladimir Putin's pocket enough times,
• 47:38
  Speaker 7: enough people in the population, when you're dealing in the margins,
• 47:42
  Speaker 7: when you say we've already suppressed the vote by fifty percent,
• 47:45
  Speaker 7: so now we only have to fool twenty five percent
• 47:48
  Speaker 7: of the people all of the time. And then you
• 47:52
  Speaker 7: run unending news coverage saying Donald Trump's going to invade Greenland,
• 47:58
  Speaker 7: Donald Trump is going to cut off all funding for seniors,
• 48:04
  Speaker 7: Donald Trump is Vladimir Putin's puppet. And all you need
• 48:10
  Speaker 7: is one or two percent of the population to believe
• 48:13
  Speaker 7: that because they're busy and they look at their smartphone
• 48:16
  Speaker 7: and say, oh wow, Donald Trump is in Vladimir Putin's pocket. Gosh,
• 48:20
  Speaker 7: I better get back to the welding bay where I've
• 48:23
  Speaker 7: got a fender to put on, because they most of
• 48:27
  Speaker 7: us don't have that time. That's why we try to
• 48:29
  Speaker 7: do this hit and run in the mornings where we
• 48:33
  Speaker 7: don't get deeply involved. Kareem very frustrated with the fact
• 48:36
  Speaker 7: that I don't know, do you know a conservative version
• 48:39
  Speaker 7: of most things considered on NPR where we just sit
• 48:43
  Speaker 7: around in naval gaze for an hour. You've got stuff
• 48:45
  Speaker 7: to do, so only get to you on the phones
• 48:48
  Speaker 7: at four three, four eight eight two four two one seven.
• 48:51
  Speaker 10: Good morning.
• 48:51
  Speaker 8: Who's this?
• 48:53
  Speaker 15: Hey?
• 48:54
  Speaker 36: This is Mosco Bob.
• 48:55
  Speaker 7: Oh we speaking of in Vladimir Putin's pocket. This is
• 48:58
  Speaker 7: proof that I am Bob. How is How is everything
• 49:02
  Speaker 7: going this afternoon?
• 49:03
  Speaker 10: Where you are?
• 49:04
  Speaker 36: I think they're going here? But you heard on the
• 49:06
  Speaker 36: news about the attempted assassination.
• 49:09
  Speaker 10: Of a guru leader here in mynd That's right, yeah,
• 49:12
  Speaker 10: this is.
• 49:13
  Speaker 36: But this is just the continuation of Ukrainians. Zalinski does
• 49:17
  Speaker 36: not want the war to stop. Once the war stops.
• 49:20
  Speaker 36: He's out his politically, he doesn't get to travel all
• 49:24
  Speaker 36: around the world. He becomes nobody. So he's going to
• 49:27
  Speaker 36: extend this war by whatever means possible.
• 49:30
  Speaker 10: Is he the only one though? Is he the only
• 49:33
  Speaker 10: one that.
• 49:36
  Speaker 21: He's working?
• 49:37
  Speaker 36: I think under the puppets of certain European leaders.
• 49:41
  Speaker 10: Well, I think the World Economic Forum likes this.
• 49:44
  Speaker 7: I think they like the churn. Ye, I think they
• 49:47
  Speaker 7: they like the chaos. It's funny because they point to
• 49:50
  Speaker 7: Donald Trump and say he's the agent of chaos.
• 49:53
  Speaker 10: I don't know.
• 49:53
  Speaker 7: Bomb's falling and drones shooting at people from the sky
• 49:58
  Speaker 7: by remote control seem more chaotic than the Donald Trump
• 50:02
  Speaker 7: is done.
• 50:04
  Speaker 36: It is, and they're both in it. But I was
• 50:05
  Speaker 36: calling it basically on your Virginia issue with your all
• 50:10
  Speaker 36: the lines being withdrawn for voting, Yeah, the district, Yeah,
• 50:15
  Speaker 36: seeing I would go, I would go to court and
• 50:18
  Speaker 36: file a claim that they're redrawing the lines racially and
• 50:25
  Speaker 36: I'm being discriminated because there's more African Americans my district
• 50:29
  Speaker 36: than there are Spanish people or white people. And to
• 50:32
  Speaker 36: make it legal, according to you know, the equal rights Yeah,
• 50:36
  Speaker 36: there has to be a safe percentage of all races
• 50:38
  Speaker 36: in each district and draw the districts up that way.
• 50:41
  Speaker 7: I have the demographics here. There's only one majority minority
• 50:45
  Speaker 7: congressional district in the whole Commonwealth now, uh and there
• 50:49
  Speaker 7: were at least three before this was drawn. Now, some
• 50:53
  Speaker 7: of the inoculation is it's a black man and a
• 50:55
  Speaker 7: black woman who are leading our House and Senate. Uh
• 50:59
  Speaker 7: So maybe they figure nobody will ask. I mean, but
• 51:02
  Speaker 7: the patent racism of the way our congressional maps are
• 51:05
  Speaker 7: laid out right now goes all the way back to
• 51:08
  Speaker 7: the early nineteen hundreds, when we established the Central Bank,
• 51:12
  Speaker 7: and when we established you know, the reserve currency, and
• 51:15
  Speaker 7: when we established the Virginia Act or not the Permanent
• 51:21
  Speaker 7: Reapportionment Act that cap the size of the US House
• 51:24
  Speaker 7: of Representatives. If we had grown organically the way we
• 51:28
  Speaker 7: had been growing, we wouldn't be having this problem, this
• 51:31
  Speaker 7: redistricting cudgel wouldn't even exist.
• 51:35
  Speaker 21: There.
• 51:36
  Speaker 10: How many people is it still called the Politboro in Moscow?
• 51:41
  Speaker 21: Do you know?
• 51:42
  Speaker 10: Okay? So how many members of it are there?
• 51:46
  Speaker 36: I don't know how many members there are of the
• 51:48
  Speaker 36: Dooma and the Polypuro. But an interesting idea, what if
• 51:52
  Speaker 36: they just got rid of all districts and all the
• 51:55
  Speaker 36: candidates just went on one single ballot, and the people
• 51:58
  Speaker 36: head of both were candidates that were on the ballot.
• 52:02
  Speaker 36: So if you have, say you have fifty districts, you
• 52:05
  Speaker 36: may have one hundred candidates. Then it'll actually become a
• 52:10
  Speaker 36: true bolt of who the people want because all the
• 52:14
  Speaker 36: candidates will be a chance to get votes.
• 52:16
  Speaker 7: It's an interesting premise. I'd like to just divvy at
• 52:19
  Speaker 7: this point. I think in each congressional district in Virginia
• 52:22
  Speaker 7: seven hundred and eighty thousand votes. I say divide that
• 52:25
  Speaker 7: in thirds, because that's where we were in nineteen twenty nine.
• 52:29
  Speaker 7: But I've got to run to the news, Bob, you
• 52:30
  Speaker 7: have a great afternoon there in Moscow.
• 52:33
  Speaker 10: All right?
• 52:34
  Speaker 7: Four three four eight eight two four two one seven.
• 52:37
  Speaker 7: How the news is impacting you based on your testimony
• 52:41
  Speaker 7: to our grand jury here on first Thing today by
• 52:44
  Speaker 7: Joe Thomas. No, Joe's not a little full of himself
• 52:47

• 52:48
  Speaker 10: No, no, not at all. My name is Bobby. I'm
• 52:53
