Transcript
- 0:05Speaker 1: Five o four at fifty five k r C The
- 0:10Speaker 1: Dog Station, Happy Monday. Yeah, well you gotta cut that off.
- 0:30Speaker 1: Tony Bender, the Big Dog, covering for Joe Strecker, took
- 0:33Speaker 1: ill this morning, and uh prayers for Joe Streker this morning.
- 0:36Speaker 1: I'm not quite sure what's going on, but I sure
- 0:38Speaker 1: hope he uh gets a speedy recovery and a happy
- 0:41Speaker 1: Monday too. You And notwithstanding, I was kind of excited
- 0:43Speaker 1: to have Tony Bender covering for him. It's been a
- 0:45Speaker 1: long time. The big Dog's a little rusty behind the board.
- 0:48Speaker 1: How many years has it been, Tony Bender since you've
- 0:50Speaker 1: been behind the board. I know you're always behind the board,
- 0:54Speaker 1: just not producing the fifty five KRC Morning Show. I
- 0:56Speaker 1: think you got to go back to my dad's era
- 0:58Speaker 1: when uh Tony the Big Dog Dog Bender was doing
- 1:01Speaker 1: that every day. So it's good to have you there, Tony.
- 1:03Speaker 1: I feel like I'm in good hands, even though I'm
- 1:05Speaker 1: never quite as comfortable when Joe Strecker is not here.
- 1:08Speaker 1: So please hope Joe is okay. Coming up in the
- 1:10Speaker 1: fifty five Carency Morning Show. Of course it's Monday. Christopher Smithman,
- 1:14Speaker 1: former Vice mayor, of course, he's a candidate for since
- 1:17Speaker 1: a city council. Early voting's going on and the election
- 1:20Speaker 1: is the week from tomorrow, fast approaching. Oh, look, an
- 1:27Speaker 1: op ed piece, fire, an opinion piece by contributor, have
- 1:31Speaker 1: to have purvall right, and into the Inquirer talking about
- 1:34Speaker 1: everything he's done. We'll get to that a little bit.
- 1:37Speaker 1: I found the article to be rather empty in terms
- 1:39Speaker 1: of overall accomplishments. Lots of words, but when you look
- 1:44Speaker 1: at the city of Cincinnati where we are versus four
- 1:46Speaker 1: years ago, I don't think he's really delivered. The administration
- 1:48Speaker 1: hasn't delivered. Time for a change, that's my perspective. And
- 1:51Speaker 1: you've got an opportunity for a change. Quit doing the
- 1:54Speaker 1: same thing over and over and over again expecting a
- 1:56Speaker 1: different result. Coming up in the Morning Show after Christopher
- 1:58Speaker 1: Smitheman at seven twenty of one day, We got Money
- 2:00Speaker 1: Monday with Brian James shutdown. How it's affecting well, literally everything.
- 2:05Speaker 1: We'll also talking about gasoline prices. US airports have been
- 2:08Speaker 1: hit with some delays because of staff and issues that
- 2:10Speaker 1: brought about by the government shutdown. Of course, the air
- 2:13Speaker 1: traffic controllers are necessary employees. They are valuable, but they're
- 2:18Speaker 1: not going to get paid. And when you're not getting paid,
- 2:21Speaker 1: you tend to decide you're sick and you call in sick.
- 2:24Speaker 1: So the ripple effect from that is having some problems
- 2:26Speaker 1: across this country military pay. The backstop eight billion dollars
- 2:30Speaker 1: of Donald Trump had sort of reallocated from other areas
- 2:34Speaker 1: and funding sources of government that's ready to expire. The
- 2:37Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty million dollars that one private donor
- 2:40Speaker 1: was kind enough to contribute to keep the American military
- 2:43Speaker 1: paid not going to go a real long way. We're
- 2:47Speaker 1: talking billions of dollars here in terms of military pay,
- 2:50Speaker 1: and one hundred and thirty million dollars, while an exceptional
- 2:53Speaker 1: amount of money from my perspective, isn't enough in terms
- 2:55Speaker 1: of dealing with keeping the men and women in uniform
- 2:58Speaker 1: paid SNAP benefits I need to expire. For people forty
- 3:02Speaker 1: one million Americans relying on SNAP benefits, that could be
- 3:05Speaker 1: a problem. Of course, this is the reason I think
- 3:07Speaker 1: the Democrats are clinging to the shutdown, in spite of
- 3:09Speaker 1: the fact that they are wholly and solely responsible. They
- 3:12Speaker 1: want pain. Those folks are always talking and lamenting and
- 3:16Speaker 1: wailing about the poor, downtrodden masses, and how they're the
- 3:19Speaker 1: party that's going to help them and don't worry, we're
- 3:21Speaker 1: here to help you. Well. Yeah, all these programs designed
- 3:24Speaker 1: to quote unquote help folks on life margins. You're hooked
- 3:27Speaker 1: up to them. That means their dysfunction results in you
- 3:30Speaker 1: not eating. Perhaps. Yeah, national parks still open, but the
- 3:37Speaker 1: garbage is piling up, and of course people are doing
- 3:40Speaker 1: bad things in national parks, like base jumping, which is
- 3:42Speaker 1: otherwise ver boten when the parks are actually open and
- 3:45Speaker 1: fully staffed. VA benefits will still go out during the shutdown,
- 3:51Speaker 1: So my veteran friends out there, they're relying on the VA.
- 3:54Speaker 1: That's okay. Oh, and it's all right. You should rest
- 3:57Speaker 1: assure lawmakers will continue to receive their paychecks during the
- 4:02Speaker 1: shutdown because Article one, Section six of the US Constitution
- 4:05Speaker 1: protects their pay. Of course, the Constitution protects their pay. Anyway,
- 4:12Speaker 1: more on that with Monday Monday's Brian James. I love
- 4:16Speaker 1: hearing from you. If you feel free to we want
- 4:17Speaker 1: to feel free to call. You are free to call
- 4:20Speaker 1: five on three seven four nine fifty five hundred, eight
- 4:22Speaker 1: hundred and eight two to three Talk Pound five fifty
- 4:24Speaker 1: on eight and two phones. Hey how about that, Bengals. Jeez,
- 4:28Speaker 1: wiez man, We're feeling really good about ourselves up till
- 4:32Speaker 1: like the third quarter. What in the hell anyway? Over
- 4:38Speaker 1: to the Democrats losing their collective minds. In the most
- 4:42Speaker 1: recent illustration and iteration of this, representative Eric Swallwell, Democrat
- 4:45Speaker 1: from California, had this to say in his ex post
- 4:48Speaker 1: the other day. Are you ready over the weekend? Don't
- 4:52Speaker 1: even think of seeking the Democratic nomination for president unless
- 4:57Speaker 1: you pledge to take a wrecking ball to the Trump
- 5:00Speaker 1: ballroom on day one.
- 5:04Speaker 2: Hmm.
- 5:07Speaker 1: So Donald Trump's building a ballroom apparently much needed. This
- 5:12Speaker 1: has been something that's been a problem for all presidents
- 5:14Speaker 1: for quite some time. They want to have big state dinners,
- 5:17Speaker 1: and whether you and I care or think that's a
- 5:19Speaker 1: good thing or not, you get more than one hundred
- 5:21Speaker 1: people together, they have to put a giant tent outside
- 5:24Speaker 1: the White House. Trump's ballroom paid for by his own
- 5:28Speaker 1: personal funds and private contributions, not talk accosting the American
- 5:32Speaker 1: taxpayer at dime. You've seen renderings of it. It looks
- 5:36Speaker 1: pretty nice. If you're into ballrooms, Let's say you can
- 5:41Speaker 1: have big balls in a big ballroom, right, Tony Bender,
- 5:44Speaker 1: you should dust off that ACDC song they sang about this,
- 5:49Speaker 1: Say what, honey, Yeah, they did sing about it. And
- 5:56Speaker 1: over to Roger Kimball, who I thought I had some
- 5:57Speaker 1: great editorial words about this hysteria. Got quite an impressive background.
- 6:05Speaker 1: Roger does, editor and publisher of The New Criterion, President
- 6:08Speaker 1: publisher of Encounter Books, author and editor of a whole
- 6:10Speaker 1: bunch of books. Anyway, some great observation standing on the
- 6:14Speaker 1: shoulders of maybe not a giant, but at least someone
- 6:16Speaker 1: with some great observations about this ridiculous hand ring from
- 6:21Speaker 1: the Democrats. Is this what they have left to complain
- 6:24Speaker 1: and cry about? A ballroom? Anyway? And I know exactly
- 6:29Speaker 1: why they are complaining is because every single moment in time,
- 6:32Speaker 1: from the minute it's completed until the minute they have
- 6:34Speaker 1: their first function, and any other administration thereafter is going
- 6:38Speaker 1: to have to deal with Trump derangement syndrome. He is
- 6:41Speaker 1: going to live inside their head thanks to the ballroom
- 6:43Speaker 1: forever long after Donald Trump has left. This has freed
- 6:47Speaker 1: from his mortal coil. As I previously said, anyway, Roger
- 6:50Speaker 1: rates the Democrats appear to have to be a never
- 6:53Speaker 1: ending source of pitiable entertainment these days. Last week, it
- 6:57Speaker 1: was the pathetic No Kings, which some mischievus wag called
- 7:00Speaker 1: No Brains rallies across the country that was him. Those
- 7:04Speaker 1: twenty seven hundred anti Trump therapy sessions for aging and
- 7:08Speaker 1: cephalic bloomers, funded to the TUNA two hundred and ninety
- 7:14Speaker 1: four million dollars by such public spirited individuals as entities
- 7:18Speaker 1: like Arabella Advisors, the Tides Foundations, George Soros, and Warren Buffett. Hmm.
- 7:23Speaker 1: Such dreams of cash fun of millions through dozens of
- 7:27Speaker 1: left leaning entities, including the American Civilities Union, National LGBTQ
- 7:32Speaker 1: Task Force, Sierra Club Foundation, the Democracy Forward Foundation, and
- 7:36Speaker 1: other havens of the perpetually aggrieved. It was a noisy
- 7:40Speaker 1: but preposterous temper tantrum full of sound and furious signifying stupidity.
- 7:45Speaker 1: The union of kumbayad gestures with rage filled pantomimes was
- 7:50Speaker 1: both inadvertently, while it's comical, the answermutable problem all those
- 7:55Speaker 1: protesters face was the incontrovertible fact that Donald Trump is
- 7:59Speaker 1: not a king. The duly elected president who handily won
- 8:02Speaker 1: both the electoral College and popular vote campaign precisely on
- 8:05Speaker 1: the issues. Then unhappy podbangers and sign waivers bewailed closing
- 8:09Speaker 1: the border, expelling illegal migrants, dismantling the woke dei apparat
- 8:14Speaker 1: in academia and the federal government, and resuscitating the americanizing
- 8:18Speaker 1: the US economy. He scored a lot of victories along
- 8:21Speaker 1: every single one of those platform plans promised that campaigned
- 8:25Speaker 1: on it. If Trump or O Kane, why would he
- 8:28Speaker 1: not simply outlaws such puerile displays them maliciousness as the
- 8:32Speaker 1: No Kay's rallies. Why wouldn't he simply decree the government
- 8:34Speaker 1: open again? Now, the whole thing was ridiculous. I doubt
- 8:38Speaker 1: that even the participants could have taken their make believe
- 8:40Speaker 1: protests seriously, but they probably feel they have to do
- 8:43Speaker 1: something to make themselves heard these days, in the face
- 8:45Speaker 1: of the perpetual motion machine that is Donald Trump. What
- 8:50Speaker 1: is an underemployed democrat to do. It's just a nature
- 8:55Speaker 1: of horrors, of vacuum. So the workarat abhor the absence
- 8:59Speaker 1: of outrage. It's an addiction, a sickness, craving that cannot
- 9:03Speaker 1: be denied outrage or burst. That's their motto. So no
- 9:08Speaker 1: sooner had the hangover of the No King's Fiasco behun
- 9:10Speaker 1: to dissipate, than a new draft was necessary. Trump supplied
- 9:14Speaker 1: it with the news that he was going ahead with
- 9:17Speaker 1: his plans to add a new ballroom, paid for with
- 9:20Speaker 1: private funds, to the White House. In fact, Trump's been
- 9:24Speaker 1: promising to do just this, build a beautiful ballroom so
- 9:28Speaker 1: large that gatherings in the White House would not have
- 9:30Speaker 1: to be held under a tent, at least since twenty sixteen.
- 9:34Speaker 1: But some of the Democratic Central Committee pretended to canvass
- 9:37Speaker 1: the focus groups and decided the engine of outrage could
- 9:40Speaker 1: be primed with the Trump is desecrating this sacred place
- 9:45Speaker 1: public monument meme. Again, the outpouring of manufactured outrage was
- 9:51Speaker 1: both hilarious empathetic people who suddenly became hyper sensitive architectural
- 9:57Speaker 1: preservationists that spent the last decade hearing on the people
- 10:00Speaker 1: who tore down or desecrated important historical statues, smashed or rips,
- 10:04Speaker 1: sullied artworks, and substituted their noxious, woke fantasies for the
- 10:08Speaker 1: clear light of historical truth. Such work marauders also completely
- 10:13Speaker 1: ignored the actual history of the White House and its
- 10:15Speaker 1: many reconstructions, editions, renovations, and renewals. Comedy was endless. Hillary
- 10:21Speaker 1: Clinton should know better than the wax and the moralistic
- 10:24Speaker 1: about anything having to do with the White House, pretending
- 10:27Speaker 1: to be outraged and posted it's not his house, it's
- 10:31Speaker 1: your house, and he's destroying it, to which Trump replied,
- 10:38Speaker 1: I may name it the Monica Lewinsky Ballroom. Kind of
- 10:43Speaker 1: seers that the Clinton libido little savor of the double entendre.
- 10:47Speaker 1: Great Scott Adams, remember him, comic book or comic illustrator,
- 10:51Speaker 1: had fun with the trade. Everyone agrees the ballroom of
- 10:54Speaker 1: the White House is needed, he notes, but Dems just
- 10:56Speaker 1: demonstrated that they can get their base to go insane.
- 10:59Speaker 1: Oh anything. Quote All they have to do is say
- 11:02Speaker 1: it over and over case quote. All of a sudden,
- 11:05Speaker 1: quote Trump is going to renovate the White House becomes
- 11:08Speaker 1: Trump's going to destroy the White House. One said, it
- 11:12Speaker 1: feels almost the same as when I saw the Pentagon
- 11:15Speaker 1: damage on nine to eleven. Yes, really it is insane,
- 11:21Speaker 1: but Adams was loving it. Quote. I think you should
- 11:23Speaker 1: respect that the Democrats are willing to take on the
- 11:26Speaker 1: challenge of living in a country where there's a building
- 11:29Speaker 1: being renovated. Heroes. The White Elf itself posted a helpful
- 11:35Speaker 1: timeline of significant renovations and events and residents throughout the years.
- 11:39Speaker 1: By now many readers will know that in nineteen oh two,
- 11:41Speaker 1: Teddy Roosevelt added the West Wing to the White House.
- 11:44Speaker 1: Nineteen oh nine, William Ouer Taff expanded the West Wing
- 11:46Speaker 1: and added the original Oval Office. Nineteen thirties and forties,
- 11:49Speaker 1: FDR moved the Oval Office to its current location, built
- 11:52Speaker 1: the East Wing, and added an indoor swimming pool. FDR's successor,
- 11:55Speaker 1: Harry Truman, got it and totally rebuilt the interior of
- 11:58Speaker 1: the White House. Richard Nixon converted White House swimming pool
- 12:01Speaker 1: into a press briefing room and added a bowling alley.
- 12:04Speaker 1: Barack Obama desecrated a tennis court to build a basketball court,
- 12:10Speaker 1: but that pedestrian inventory does not include some of the
- 12:12Speaker 1: more pique items that the White House included in its record.
- 12:16Speaker 1: He said, my favorites were the slides regarding the discovery
- 12:18Speaker 1: of cocaine and the Transgender Day celebration at the White House.
- 12:22Speaker 1: If you've seen that meme, it is absolutely hilarious, and
- 12:25Speaker 1: by the way he writes, most renovation stuck the taxpayers
- 12:28Speaker 1: with a tab. Trump's new ballroom costs the taxpayers nothing
- 12:33Speaker 1: entirely privately funded, among other things, this week's Democrat exercise
- 12:38Speaker 1: andffeckless melodrama reminds us that all the political initiative now
- 12:43Speaker 1: is with Donald Trump. Not just that Democrats are wholly reactive,
- 12:47Speaker 1: responding like pavlogs dogs and he bell that Trump might ring.
- 12:51Speaker 1: There is also the fact that Trump has consumed all
- 12:53Speaker 1: the political auction available in the body politic, his maga
- 12:56Speaker 1: agendas shaping everything from his peace initiatives on the world
- 13:00Speaker 1: stays to his efforts at the border and with the
- 13:02Speaker 1: economy and cultural fabric of the country. All the Democrats
- 13:07Speaker 1: have now is the screech of Elizabeth Warren and her
- 13:10Speaker 1: tribe loll, resounding like a gigantic set of fingernails drawn
- 13:16Speaker 1: harshly across the black board of the nation's attention. It's
- 13:19Speaker 1: a horrible, disagreeable sound. No one heeds it, everyone recoils
- 13:23Speaker 1: from it. It's not much, but it's all the Democrats
- 13:25Speaker 1: have now, a sort of endless re enact him of
- 13:29Speaker 1: Edward Munch's The Scream in lieu of any constructive action.
- 13:36Speaker 1: Well stated Roger Kimball yep, Eric Swallwell, great demonstration of
- 13:42Speaker 1: exactly what he pointed out. Pledge to take a wrecking
- 13:48Speaker 1: ball to the Trump ballroom, day one of the new administration.
- 13:51Speaker 1: Should a Democrat occupy the Oval Office? Five eighteen fifty
- 13:55Speaker 1: five care see detalk station be right back. After these
- 13:58Speaker 1: brief words, what's happening?
- 14:00Speaker 2: They placed wagers on.
- 14:01Speaker 1: It is time for Channel nine first morning weather forecast.
- 14:05Speaker 1: So later today we got partly to the mostly cloudy skies,
- 14:08Speaker 1: highest sixty three overnight, mostly cloudy's slight rain chance most
- 14:14Speaker 1: will not see rain. So you can just scratch that
- 14:16Speaker 1: out of the weather forecast. I guess forty eight. The
- 14:18Speaker 1: overnight low fifty eight are high tomorrow with overcast skies
- 14:21Speaker 1: and isolated chance of rain in the afternoon. It'll remain overcast,
- 14:24Speaker 1: overnight spotty showers possible forty to five. The overnight low
- 14:27Speaker 1: Wednesday is going to be well, they save prepare for
- 14:30Speaker 1: widespread showers. Quote a true washout day. Close quote from
- 14:34Speaker 1: Channel nine fifty for the high they say Halloween is
- 14:37Speaker 1: going to be dry though, forty six degrees right now
- 14:40Speaker 1: fifty five kr CV talk station, how about that dangle
- 14:45Speaker 1: five twenty at fifty five KRCB talk station five one, three, seven,
- 14:51Speaker 1: four nine, fifty two three talk now on five fifty
- 14:54Speaker 1: on eight and Chief Phone. Wonderful having Sarah Heringer in
- 14:58Speaker 1: studio last week on spent a whole hour with Sarah.
- 15:01Speaker 1: Get an update on how she's doing, how she's recovering
- 15:04Speaker 1: in the wake of her husband being slaughtered before her
- 15:06Speaker 1: very eyes and her over the Rhine apartment. That's progress
- 15:09Speaker 1: there have to have per of all Dad's progress. Anyway,
- 15:13Speaker 1: She's the one that ultimately allowed us to reveal the
- 15:16Speaker 1: failing nature of the angle monitoring system. Sarah Herringer, or
- 15:20Speaker 1: rather the Patrick Herringer Act floating ran up someplace in Columbus,
- 15:24Speaker 1: and the call to action was just call your elected
- 15:26Speaker 1: officials here in Ohio and tell them to move that
- 15:28Speaker 1: forward so we can actually have a system that works.
- 15:32Speaker 1: Private citizen Brad winsterpin studio for an hour talk government
- 15:34Speaker 1: shutdown among other things with Brad of course Tech Friday
- 15:37Speaker 1: with Dave Hatter, very important segment that one. And I
- 15:42Speaker 1: saw this rather than go some other direction, why not
- 15:45Speaker 1: go this direction. I don't rely on AI powered chat
- 15:48Speaker 1: bots for medical advice. Yeah, and I mentioned my experience
- 15:57Speaker 1: just trying chat GPT for almost the first time. I
- 16:00Speaker 1: had done it for comedic purposes previously, but I was
- 16:03Speaker 1: using it for an introduction for Corey Bowman. Just trying it,
- 16:05Speaker 1: I wasn't going to read the introduction, but after typing
- 16:08Speaker 1: in a very detailed explanation, I wanted chat GPT to
- 16:12Speaker 1: spit out for me, which was an introduction to Corey
- 16:14Speaker 1: Bowman talking about his platform and his background. I had
- 16:18Speaker 1: a whole cloth made up version of what chat GPT
- 16:22Speaker 1: thought Corey Bowman mayoral candidate early voting's open choose him,
- 16:26Speaker 1: Corey Bowman is, and what he's all about. Since I
- 16:28Speaker 1: know him, I knew the whole thing to be packed
- 16:30Speaker 1: full of lies, most notably Corey Bowman's not all about
- 16:32Speaker 1: the green agenda, which the chat GPT said he was
- 16:38Speaker 1: pivoting over At New York Post reporting the rise of
- 16:41Speaker 1: AI chatbox, people are turning to it to get medical
- 16:45Speaker 1: advice and getting some really really bad advice. Here you go.
- 16:52Speaker 1: One particularly shocking case that some bright Bard props involved
- 16:56Speaker 1: a thirty five year old Moroccan man who sought help
- 16:58Speaker 1: from chat GPT for a cauliflower alike. Are you ready
- 17:02Speaker 1: anal lesion. Chatbot suggested the growth could be hemorrhoids, and
- 17:06Speaker 1: I proposed elastic or elastic ligation as a treatment. He
- 17:09Speaker 1: did that himself using a thread, resulting in intense pain,
- 17:14Speaker 1: landing in an emergency room. Further test and reveal the
- 17:16Speaker 1: growth had been completely misdiagnosed by AAI. They got a
- 17:22Speaker 1: sixty year old man with a college education and innutrition
- 17:25Speaker 1: asked the AI platform how to reduce his intake of
- 17:28Speaker 1: table salt. Chat GPT suggested using sodium bromide as a replacement.
- 17:34Speaker 1: He did follow that device, and while the consumption of
- 17:37Speaker 1: sodium bromide caused him well to reach a level of toxicity,
- 17:41Speaker 1: developing bromide poisoning. Hospitalized for three weeks with symptoms including paranoia, hallucinations, confusions,
- 17:48Speaker 1: extreme thirst, and a skin rash. And then there are
- 17:53Speaker 1: also more severe demonstration got a Swiss guy who experienced
- 17:56Speaker 1: double vision after a mentally evasive heart procedure. When the
- 17:59Speaker 1: double vision return, he consulted chat GPT, which reassured him
- 18:04Speaker 1: that that well was a temporary thing that would improve
- 18:07Speaker 1: on its own. He didn't seek medical help and twenty
- 18:10Speaker 1: four hours later ended up in the emergency room suffering
- 18:12Speaker 1: a mini stroke. So three cautionary tales out there. I
- 18:19Speaker 1: think it's aokay to at least take a look and
- 18:21Speaker 1: see what it says. But maybe take that information to
- 18:24Speaker 1: your primary care physician and say, look, I was curious.
- 18:30Speaker 1: Maybe it was after hours, I couldn't reach you. Do
- 18:33Speaker 1: you think this has anything to do with it? Uh No,
- 18:38Speaker 1: get to the hospital right like and now you're dying.
- 18:42Speaker 1: Chat GPT had it wrong like it does so so
- 18:47Speaker 1: many times. Jay's on the throne. Jay, You're next, Tom.
- 18:50Speaker 1: If you're out there, you can go after Jay. Love
- 18:52Speaker 1: hearing from anybody who wants to call five on three
- 18:54Speaker 1: seven four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred eight two
- 18:56Speaker 1: three talk First QC Kinetics because I went to QC
- 18:59Speaker 1: Kinetics on on Friday, a bit of a salesman. Get
- 19:02Speaker 1: the whole presentation. I actually watched the QC Kinetics thing happen,
- 19:06Speaker 1: the PRP platelet rich plasma. I watched the extraction from it.
- 19:15Speaker 1: It comes from your own body, so they're pulling blood
- 19:17Speaker 1: out of your own body. They put it in this device.
- 19:19Speaker 1: It's centrifusion down and you get this platelet rich plasma
- 19:22Speaker 1: which is then injected in the taste of this particular
- 19:25Speaker 1: patient right into the neil me. This woman has had
- 19:28Speaker 1: wild success with the QC Kinetics will dealing with pain,
- 19:33Speaker 1: and it isn't just arthritis pain. That's one thing I learned.
- 19:36Speaker 1: Any kind of pain you have, like muscular pain, a
- 19:39Speaker 1: tissue damage kind of pain. These are advanced cellular treatments

- 20:26Speaker 1: I've also got that iHeartMedia app stream the audio head
- 20:30Speaker 1: over to the phones. Tom hang on Jay's first, Jay,
- 20:32Speaker 1: thanks for holding over the break. Welcome back, my friend.
- 20:33Speaker 1: Happy Monday to you.
- 20:35Speaker 4: Hey, Happy Monday, Brian, and congratulations to all the listeners
- 20:39Speaker 4: on this glorious government shut down. We're up to one
- 20:42Speaker 4: hundred and thirty three billion dollars saved, assuming that it
- 20:45Speaker 4: doesn't get spent, which I think is probably an unsafe assumption.
- 20:49Speaker 1: I think it is.
- 20:51Speaker 5: Uh. You know.
- 20:51Speaker 4: The second point is on the Trump ballroom. Underneath the
- 20:55Speaker 4: heading of nothing is free. I see that the big
- 21:00Speaker 4: tech bros through a lot of money at this thing,
- 21:03Speaker 4: and we'll see a section two thirty UH continues to
- 21:07Speaker 4: remain in place, protecting social media companies from the UH,
- 21:11Speaker 4: the standards that all the rest of the media.
- 21:13Speaker 1: Companies have to Tom ya yea or Jay. You think
- 21:17Speaker 1: they're buying favors by throwing in some money for the big,
- 21:20Speaker 1: beautiful ballroom.
- 21:22Speaker 6: No, No, I think these I think these.
- 21:24Speaker 4: Huge businesses just uh you know, it's it's getting close
- 21:28Speaker 4: to Christmas, and I think that your heart.
- 21:30Speaker 7: Just got softened.
- 21:30Speaker 1: That's that's what I think it is. Like all the
- 21:35Speaker 1: tech bros who showed up after Trump got elected were
- 21:37Speaker 1: praising him and standing around him and taking his hand,
- 21:40Speaker 1: when five seconds prior to that they were standing around
- 21:43Speaker 1: Joe Biden or whoever happened to be in the office
- 21:46Speaker 1: at that moment in time. Yeah, they know where they're
- 21:49Speaker 1: Their bread is buttered, that's for sure.
- 21:51Speaker 4: Sure they were throwing millions at his inauguration because the
- 21:55Speaker 4: thing that this country absolutely can afford is inauguration. And
- 21:59Speaker 4: I guess that's my point is it's kind of and
- 22:02Speaker 4: I like most of what Trump's doing, but there's a
- 22:06Speaker 4: time to read the room. Whenever we're thirty some trillion
- 22:10Speaker 4: dollars in debt, you just pick the fight with the
- 22:13Speaker 4: ranchers and told the ranchers that they need to lower
- 22:16Speaker 4: the price of beef. How about you lower the get
- 22:18Speaker 4: rid of the regulation off of all ranchers and farmers
- 22:21Speaker 4: who allow them to return to the free market, and
- 22:23Speaker 4: then see what happens.
- 22:25Speaker 1: Yeah, there's that. And then also you got to remember
- 22:27Speaker 1: the number of head of cattle that are out in
- 22:30Speaker 1: the world. I mean, that takes a while to rebound,
- 22:32Speaker 1: and it's at the lowest level it's been since what
- 22:34Speaker 1: like the nineteen fifties. That's been a problem we've been
- 22:36Speaker 1: facing for a long time. Supply and demand.
- 22:40Speaker 5: Absolutely.
- 22:41Speaker 4: I have a neighbor who raises cattle.
- 22:43Speaker 5: He'll sell.
- 22:44Speaker 4: If you go to a private farmer, you can buy
- 22:47Speaker 4: half of beef for about five bucks a pound. How
- 22:51Speaker 4: in a world do you make money raising that animal
- 22:53Speaker 4: with the price of feed and then turn around and
- 22:55Speaker 4: sell it for five bucks a pounds. That's not what
- 22:58Speaker 4: you pay Krogers. Oh no, but that's what the that's
- 23:01Speaker 4: what the rancher is putting in his pocket. So so
- 23:04Speaker 4: the thing about Trump and the quote free ballroom and
- 23:07Speaker 4: is kind of in a midterm election coming is kind
- 23:10Speaker 4: of like read the room, slow it down by your time,
- 23:15Speaker 4: and you know, I just refuse to find that the
- 23:18Speaker 4: convention space is that a you know, you just can't
- 23:20Speaker 4: find any in Washington, d C.
- 23:22Speaker 1: If you want to have a.
- 23:23Speaker 5: Meeting, and uh that you know.
- 23:25Speaker 4: The tale of this thing, just like every good government project,
- 23:29Speaker 4: is this going to be free? Is it going to
- 23:31Speaker 4: be maintained and paid for all the maintenance and upkeep
- 23:33Speaker 4: over the next thousand.
- 23:35Speaker 5: Years by the tech pros?
- 23:37Speaker 1: I doubt it, of course.
- 23:38Speaker 4: Nothing, or later it's going to fall in the back
- 23:39Speaker 4: of the taxpayers to take care of the gold plated
- 23:42Speaker 4: room or whatever it is.
- 23:43Speaker 1: But I guess the point, the broader point, whether or
- 23:46Speaker 1: not it's actually needed. And I don't know if you
- 23:49Speaker 1: could hear the tone of my voice when talking about it,
- 23:51Speaker 1: what do I know? I mean, listen, you talk about
- 23:53Speaker 1: state dinners and things. I'm never going to be invited
- 23:55Speaker 1: to one. I don't care. It's a bunch of pomping circumstance,
- 23:58Speaker 1: a bunch of hu has rubbin elbows together. I don't care.
- 24:02Speaker 1: If it gets something accomplished on behalf of the American people,
- 24:04Speaker 1: that's fine. But in the final analysis, you know, looking
- 24:06Speaker 1: at the list of all the things that have been
- 24:08Speaker 1: done by way of modifying the White House, is it
- 24:11Speaker 1: really the oh my god, the Trump is destroying history moment?
- 24:15Speaker 1: I mean that he engages in this project, go ahead
- 24:18Speaker 1: and be critical. That there are more important things out
- 24:20Speaker 1: in the world to do. But at least the project
- 24:22Speaker 1: itself isn't coming out of your in my pocket future costs. Absolutely, Yeah,
- 24:27Speaker 1: I mean, we are we still complaining about the basketball
- 24:31Speaker 1: cart that court that was put in by Obama. I
- 24:33Speaker 1: don't ever hear anybody complaining about it or any of
- 24:36Speaker 1: the other projects. So what the problem is? They got
- 24:39Speaker 1: Trump Derangement Center, and this is going to be a
- 24:42Speaker 1: symbol of Donald Trump that they won't be able to erase.
- 24:46Speaker 1: Waalwell saying that you got to be the litmus test
- 24:49Speaker 1: to become the next presidential candidate to the Democratic monitors,
- 24:52Speaker 1: You've got to promise to destroy the thing. That would
- 24:55Speaker 1: be a colossal waste of taxpayer dollars, wouldn't it tearing
- 24:59Speaker 1: some him down? That's fully functional and arguably needed. If
- 25:04Speaker 1: you look at the arguments that have been made for
- 25:06Speaker 1: wanting this thing in the first place? Do you want
- 25:09Speaker 1: it to be inside part of the White House? If
- 25:11Speaker 1: you think you can make an argument for that, then fine,
- 25:13Speaker 1: It's being done and we're not having to pay for
- 25:15Speaker 1: it at least right now. Is this like the is
- 25:18Speaker 1: this gonna sway elections? Oh my god, I can't vote
- 25:21Speaker 1: for Donald Trump. I can't vote for a Republican next
- 25:23Speaker 1: week because Donald Trump's building a ballroom. Doesn't that sound
- 25:27Speaker 1: dumb as an argument? It's not a policy argument. It's
- 25:30Speaker 1: not don't vote for that guy because he's gonna take
- 25:32Speaker 1: away something or because he's gonna put a new program
- 25:35Speaker 1: in or he's gonna deregulate. Oh my god, we're all
- 25:37Speaker 1: gonna die. This is about a blank and ballroom. This
- 25:39Speaker 1: is about a building. It's not gonna impact anybody.
- 25:45Speaker 4: Don't miss underestimate the ability of dumb to sway an election.
- 25:49Speaker 4: But in closing, don't vote Democrat, don't vote Rhino.
- 25:54Speaker 5: Looking forward to hearing from Tom. Thanks Brian.
- 25:56Speaker 1: He will be next out for the break. I have
- 25:58Speaker 1: confidence that Thomas willing to hang out for a couple
- 26:01Speaker 1: minutes because you've got to get some more messages out.

- 27:15Speaker 1: five point forty here if if you've got KARSD talk
- 27:17Speaker 1: station Monday, like him or not, I do have the
- 27:20Speaker 1: stack of stupid, but I also have Tom. It's been
- 27:22Speaker 1: kind enough to hold over the break there five one three,
- 27:23Speaker 1: seven four nine fifty eight hundred eight two three talk.
- 27:26Speaker 1: Feel free to call. Got something to say like Tom, Tom,
- 27:28Speaker 1: welcome back, my friend, Happy Monday.
- 27:30Speaker 6: To you, Hey, good morning, and that was some some
- 27:33Speaker 6: nifty footbart there. Tony that's running the board, Tony vendor
- 27:37Speaker 6: of the Big Dog. Yeah, Tony, appreciate that. I mean
- 27:41Speaker 6: my call got dropped and then I had to wait
- 27:46Speaker 6: for to get cell coverage and then I called back.
- 27:48Speaker 6: I mean I literally he put me on hold two
- 27:50Speaker 6: seconds before you went to me. So had a boy, Tony, good.
- 27:53Speaker 1: Job, well oiled machine. He hasn't forgotten anything over the years.
- 28:00Speaker 6: First of all, I wanted to comment on the ballroom
- 28:03Speaker 6: where it gets hilarious. How anythink Trump does just just
- 28:07Speaker 6: freaks these people out. I love it, and I think,
- 28:10Speaker 6: you know what, I think that's part of the reason,
- 28:12Speaker 6: if not all, the reason why he does some of
- 28:14Speaker 6: the stuff.
- 28:15Speaker 1: Yeah, like negotiating negotiating peace in war torn countries who've
- 28:18Speaker 1: been at war with each other for decades. Yeah, that
- 28:20Speaker 1: that sucks because Trump did it.
- 28:22Speaker 6: Yeah. What a horrible human being he is. Uh you
- 28:25Speaker 6: remember that? Remember all the women that Trump had at
- 28:29Speaker 6: that Hillary Clinton debate, that the women that had had
- 28:33Speaker 6: issues with her husband Bill. Uh wouldn't it be cool
- 28:37Speaker 6: if all of those women plus Monica Lewinski was there
- 28:39Speaker 6: for the rabbit cutting ceremony for the new ballroom.
- 28:43Speaker 1: And Monica's got to be there because he's gonna name
- 28:46Speaker 1: it after her.
- 28:48Speaker 6: That's that's such a truth. I had several minutes of
- 28:52Speaker 6: laugh out loud moment on that one. That's pretty good.
- 28:55Speaker 1: He does know how to have a good time, and
- 28:57Speaker 1: it really I think it does most of the time.
- 28:59Speaker 1: He's he really is joking. I think the they're only
- 29:03Speaker 1: designed to get a response from the apoplectic Democrats. It's
- 29:06Speaker 1: just you can see him doing it. I had a
- 29:09Speaker 1: conversation with a relative who will remain unnamed, but I
- 29:13Speaker 1: had to walk her down that path too. It's like,
- 29:15Speaker 1: you're you're taking it was something that really set her
- 29:17Speaker 1: off and no Trump fan. She I said, you're you're
- 29:21Speaker 1: taking that seriously. I said, he's got you. He asked
- 29:25Speaker 1: you just in full reactive mode constantly. You know you're
- 29:29Speaker 1: you're you're letting a joke cause you to react in
- 29:33Speaker 1: an angry fashion. I said, he knows he's doing that
- 29:35Speaker 1: to you because you can't take a joke, right.
- 29:39Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, but I'm sure they out. Oh yeah. I
- 29:44Speaker 6: wanted to touch on the NBA Betty standals. Oh yeah,
- 29:48Speaker 6: I don't know how much that matters to you.
- 29:51Speaker 1: But we're just at the tip of the iceberg. I mean,
- 29:53Speaker 1: I read this article on the Wall Street Journal from
- 29:56Speaker 1: sportswriter Jason Gay, and the one thing I took from
- 29:58Speaker 1: it was really a frightening thing that the individual players
- 30:03Speaker 1: are getting harassed. Now they're not involved in cheating. They're
- 30:07Speaker 1: not involved in the scandal. But you know, you're in
- 30:09Speaker 1: the NBA and you miss a point and somebody's bet
- 30:13Speaker 1: on your personal performance, they immediately think that you're cheating,
- 30:16Speaker 1: and they pile on social media wise, they threaten you
- 30:19Speaker 1: and say you just ruin my life or whatever. So
- 30:22Speaker 1: the ballplayers themselves are free from the scandal, and yet
- 30:25Speaker 1: they're fully embroiled in it just because they're playing the game.
- 30:30Speaker 6: Right. Well, my take on it is we watch sports
- 30:35Speaker 6: as well, at least those of us who are not
- 30:37Speaker 6: directly connected to a league or a team or whatever.
- 30:40Speaker 6: We watch it for entertainment purposes. It's a diversion from
- 30:43Speaker 6: reality for true. Frankly, whether my team wins or loses
- 30:48Speaker 6: has no direct effect on my life indeed, but it's
- 30:50Speaker 6: entertainment and so and at the core of watching sports
- 30:55Speaker 6: is whether you go to your your kids little eague
- 30:58Speaker 6: game or where you're watching the super ball is we're
- 31:01Speaker 6: watching these people play a game and they're trying to
- 31:05Speaker 6: win a championship. That's that's what when we get behind them,
- 31:09Speaker 6: we root for them. You're trying to win, You're doing
- 31:11Speaker 6: the best you can, and we know you're gonna fail,
- 31:13Speaker 6: we know you're gonna do something stupid, but you know
- 31:16Speaker 6: what you're trying and we're behind you. We're rooting and
- 31:19Speaker 6: cheering you on. When as soon as we realize or
- 31:22Speaker 6: we even think that you're not trying your best, you don't.
- 31:26Speaker 6: You don't run out of ground ball in the infield
- 31:28Speaker 6: or or whatever. And even worse, what these guys are
- 31:31Speaker 6: being excused of, you're intentionally sitting out a game or
- 31:35Speaker 6: you're intentionally not trying your best because you got buddies
- 31:39Speaker 6: with with money on you to not do so well.
- 31:42Speaker 6: Now now you've crossed the line and you have a
- 31:44Speaker 6: we have a serious problem with that. We want you
- 31:47Speaker 6: to try to win. We're we're we want to root
- 31:49Speaker 6: for somebody trying to win, not trying to lose. That's ridiculous.
- 31:53Speaker 6: So turning this to politics, when when we have people
- 31:57Speaker 6: and politicians, people in leadership who are clearly not trying
- 32:01Speaker 6: to help their constituents win. They're they're going out of
- 32:06Speaker 6: their way for selfish reasons, or or they're trying to
- 32:09Speaker 6: make money for their buddies, or or you know, you
- 32:13Speaker 6: brought up to something that's dumb. I mean, I can't
- 32:17Speaker 6: think of a policy the Democrats have that actually make
- 32:19Speaker 6: sense and actually what helped the American people. If everything
- 32:23Speaker 6: they come up with causes us to lose. And so
- 32:27Speaker 6: when when you have people like that, we don't want
- 32:29Speaker 6: to root for you. You're a problem, You're causing issues,
- 32:31Speaker 6: You're causing us to lose. We're not going to root
- 32:34Speaker 6: for you. We're not going to cheer you on because
- 32:36Speaker 6: your your ideas are dumb and all you want to
- 32:39Speaker 6: do is is hurt somebody else who're not really trying
- 32:42Speaker 6: to help anybody. So with that in mind, don't vote Rhino,
- 32:46Speaker 6: don't vote Democrat. Have a great day, Ryan, you have
- 32:49Speaker 6: a great day too.
- 32:50Speaker 5: Tom.
- 32:51Speaker 1: We all know what opinions are like, right, We've all
- 32:53Speaker 1: got one. Feel free to chime in if you care to.

- 35:47Speaker 1: Affairs Bureau, pronounced dead just over an hour later after
- 35:50Speaker 1: being found cause of death unspecified, cardiac arrest. Her husband
- 35:54Speaker 1: is a little uh concerned about it, launching an investigation.
- 35:58Speaker 1: She'd undergone a lipos suck and gluteal fat transfer procedure
- 36:02Speaker 1: in the country. He recalled that his wife was perfectly fine,
- 36:08Speaker 1: just before the procedure and told relatives the day before
- 36:11Speaker 1: her death that she was feeling all right. Gluteal fat transfer.
- 36:15Speaker 1: This is something that I really don't understand, known as
- 36:18Speaker 1: the Brazilian butt lift, involves transferring fat from other parts
- 36:22Speaker 1: of the body to increase the size of the buttocks.
- 36:30Speaker 1: I'm wrestling with that. I'm old enough to remember the
- 36:33Speaker 1: time when nobody wanted their butt to be bigger. They
- 36:36Speaker 1: wanted it to be smaller. So this woman is now
- 36:38Speaker 1: dead because she wanted a bigger butt. That just does
- 36:40Speaker 1: not make any sense. Let's see what Steve's got this morning. Steve,
- 36:44Speaker 1: thanks for calling. Welcome to the Morning Show.
- 36:47Speaker 5: Well, good morning, Brian. Hey.
- 36:48Speaker 8: I wanted to first talk about QC Kinetics. My experience
- 36:52Speaker 8: with QC is going to outstand.
- 36:54Speaker 1: Oh that's great, the most incredible to you.
- 36:58Speaker 5: Like I said, I can walk this morning.
- 37:00Speaker 1: Oh cool. I saw, like I said before, Steve, when
- 37:02Speaker 1: I threw in the commercial, I saw the procedure being
- 37:05Speaker 1: done for the first time on Friday, and I was
- 37:07Speaker 1: pretty amazed by it and all the success stories. All
- 37:10Speaker 1: the people that were working there are like, I work
- 37:12Speaker 1: here because it works so great for me. It's like
- 37:14Speaker 1: I want to spread the love. So good for you, Steve.
- 37:15Speaker 1: I'm really happy for you.
- 37:17Speaker 5: Yeah, it was good. I mean they did.
- 37:19Speaker 8: I mean they did the bone marrow esperate.
- 37:22Speaker 5: I've been in paying for so long that I needed
- 37:25Speaker 5: I needed to do something.
- 37:27Speaker 8: And you know, I have a degree in pharmacy, so
- 37:29Speaker 8: I'm a big farmer guy.
- 37:31Speaker 5: At least they used to be for.
- 37:32Speaker 8: Withouty days and it worked. They are I mean, I've
- 37:38Speaker 8: forty years of experience working with healthcare professionals. They are
- 37:42Speaker 8: very good at answering questions, pleasant team, great, knowledgeable, and
- 37:52Speaker 8: they did my bone mare esperate.
- 37:55Speaker 5: It's fairly maybe I've been in pain for so much.
- 37:58Speaker 8: I'm i haven't little peace us since left.
- 38:03Speaker 5: They were they were very confident and they're they're all.
- 38:08Speaker 5: They're all very pleasant. They're good looking. They're good looking,
- 38:11Speaker 5: they are.
- 38:12Speaker 9: They are beautiful inside.
- 38:13Speaker 5: Now all right, you might have noticed.
- 38:16Speaker 1: That I did pay attention to that. I am a man, Steve,
- 38:21Speaker 1: So yeah, I.
- 38:22Speaker 8: Am too, and I'm I'm a go ahead.
- 38:27Speaker 1: I'm glad. I'm happy as I can be for you, man,
- 38:30Speaker 1: I really really am.
- 38:31Speaker 8: It's a good I can get back into doing some
- 38:34Speaker 8: of my gardening stuff.
- 38:35Speaker 1: Good for you. Anything else like your mind for we
- 38:39Speaker 1: part company because we're almost at a time in the segment.
- 38:41Speaker 5: Steve, Okay, I did want to say one thing.
- 38:45Speaker 8: Eric Swallow, who I refer to as an icier, I
- 38:49Speaker 8: believe needs to be put on a PolyGram and we
- 38:51Speaker 8: need to do details of his intimate relations.
- 38:54Speaker 1: With that Chinese spy.
- 38:56Speaker 8: If in fact what I believe is true is true,
- 38:58Speaker 8: he should be in in jail for the rest of
- 39:01Speaker 8: his life for trees. Is there any way you can
- 39:05Speaker 8: dispute that.
- 39:07Speaker 5: I didn't call. I didn't call for an argument on
- 39:09Speaker 5: this one.
- 39:09Speaker 1: No, no, no, you aren't looking for an argument. Yeah.
- 39:11Speaker 1: There there is that problem floating around in his background,
- 39:15Speaker 1: and I'm glad you brought that back up because I
- 39:17Speaker 1: had forgotten Eric Swalwell was the guy that was uh,
- 39:20Speaker 1: you know, involved intimately. What was it her name Feng
- 39:23Speaker 1: than right? Wasn't that her name?
- 39:24Speaker 8: Yeah, it's like Christina Wang or something like that. I
- 39:29Speaker 8: just prefer yeah, yeah, and and the name I can't
- 39:35Speaker 8: use anywhere.
- 39:36Speaker 1: Well, I appreciate that. It's okay, don't need to get
- 39:40Speaker 1: down that road, Steve. I don't want to have to
- 39:42Speaker 1: utilize the dump button on a Monday morning out of
- 39:44Speaker 1: the game. I congratulations on your success, and I can't

- 41:10Speaker 1: hopefully in a celebratory mood. Gotta do something about the
- 41:14Speaker 1: direction of the city of Cincinnati, and I don't believe that,
- 41:17Speaker 1: in spite of his best efforts in his op ed
- 41:20Speaker 1: piece to the CINSINNI inquired, don't believe they have to
- 41:21Speaker 1: have pro ball spelled out a lot of accomplishments and
- 41:25Speaker 1: thinking about diving on into that before we get to
- 41:26Speaker 1: Christopher Smithman, who may very well have something to say
- 41:28Speaker 1: about that. I'll dive on any topic you want, if
- 41:30Speaker 1: you feel free to call five on three, seven four
- 41:32Speaker 1: nine to fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eight two
- 41:33Speaker 1: three talk Tom five fifty on eight and T phones.
- 41:37Speaker 1: I guess I'm inclined to start with this absurd, absurd
- 41:41Speaker 1: response from Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson. He got really angry
- 41:50Speaker 1: a reporter on Friday because the reporter used the term
- 41:54Speaker 1: quote illegal aliens close quote when asking about city spending.
- 41:58Speaker 1: You can find the video. There's an official transcript to
- 42:01Speaker 1: the kind of the Chicago may floating around out there.
- 42:03Speaker 1: A reporter asked the mayor about a report on city spending.
- 42:11Speaker 1: The question is about spending, but he said spending related
- 42:16Speaker 1: to illegal aliens, which, of course the mayor, rather than
- 42:20Speaker 1: address the topic of city spending, immediately attack the reporter
- 42:25Speaker 1: for being a racist because he used the term illegal aliens.
- 42:28Speaker 1: So we never got the answer to the question, but
- 42:30Speaker 1: we did get a tongue lashing from Johnson. We don't
- 42:33Speaker 1: have illegal aliens. I don't know if that's from some
- 42:36Speaker 1: sort of sci fi message that you wish you've had. Well, listen,
- 42:39Speaker 1: the legal term for my people were slaves. Oh okay, uh,
- 42:48Speaker 1: you want me to use that term too, So look,
- 42:50Speaker 1: let's just get the language right. We're talking about undocumented
- 42:53Speaker 1: individuals that are human beings. Well, pesky Brian Thomas and
- 43:00Speaker 1: looked at the definition of alien from the Oxford dictionary.
- 43:03Speaker 1: Belonging to a foreign country or nation is not inherently
- 43:10Speaker 1: racist to anybody. You're a member of a you belong
- 43:13Speaker 1: to a foreign country or nation. You are a citizen
- 43:15Speaker 1: of a foreign country or nation. You are not an
- 43:16Speaker 1: American citizen. Did you come into the country pursuat or
- 43:19Speaker 1: immigration laws legally? No, you broke the immigration laws, so
- 43:23Speaker 1: you would be here unlawfully, illegally in the country because
- 43:27Speaker 1: you didn't comply. You are definitionally an alien. Even if
- 43:32Speaker 1: you are here legally, you'll be a legal person that
- 43:38Speaker 1: belongs to a foreign country or nation. You haven't obtained
- 43:40Speaker 1: US citizenship yet. If you've got US citizen if you
- 43:42Speaker 1: would be a US citizen and no longer definition definitionally
- 43:47Speaker 1: an alien. Ah, this kind of thing just drives me
- 43:51Speaker 1: out of my mind. Johnson said he would not accept,
- 43:54Speaker 1: in his words, accept that type of racist, nasty language
- 43:58Speaker 1: to describe human being. Well, since definitionally alien is not racist,
- 44:09Speaker 1: still refers to a human being. Because alien definitionally is
- 44:12Speaker 1: a person from another nation or country, I guess it
- 44:14Speaker 1: can also be an extraterrestrial that would be a person
- 44:17Speaker 1: from another world. But in terms of the topic of conversation,
- 44:22Speaker 1: in terms of the line of questioning, where clearly Johnson
- 44:26Speaker 1: not talking about some sci fi message. We're talking about
- 44:29Speaker 1: human beings who came into this country and are apparently
- 44:31Speaker 1: overwhelming city spending in the city of Chicago. So you
- 44:36Speaker 1: see the deflection of the diversion and then people get
- 44:38Speaker 1: away with this really just angers me to no end.
- 44:41Speaker 1: And if I was that reporter's like, all right, strike
- 44:42Speaker 1: illegal alien. Can you get back to the spending questions, sir,
- 44:47Speaker 1: because he certainly wouldn't entertain a definitional breakdown in the
- 44:51Speaker 1: middle of a press conference. I don't have time for
- 44:52Speaker 1: you. You can see him doing that. Of course, he do
- 44:54Speaker 1: that kind of stuff all the time. So that just
- 44:59Speaker 1: goes along with the this whole fascism thing and this
- 45:01Speaker 1: Nazi thing. You know, I'm just tired of reminding Democrats
- 45:06Speaker 1: to the definition of fascism. Does Donald Trump want to
- 45:10Speaker 1: micromanage every aspect of your life through regulation or laws
- 45:14Speaker 1: or anything else. No, the answer is no, he is
- 45:16Speaker 1: doing an effort to deregulate. In fact, he'd liked to
- 45:19Speaker 1: fire all the employees have been let go from the
- 45:21Speaker 1: federal government, or at least on lee from the federal
- 45:24Speaker 1: government during the shutdown. It's not working out so well.
- 45:28Speaker 1: I know he originally was going to say that this
- 45:30Speaker 1: vote guy was going to start firing people. That hasn't happened. Obviously,
- 45:33Speaker 1: some challenges of editing the equation, much in the same
- 45:35Speaker 1: way challenges entered into the equation when you thought Doze
- 45:38Speaker 1: was gonna cut two trillion dollars out of the federal government.
- 45:41Speaker 1: That it's a little more complicated to that we're all
- 45:44Speaker 1: finding out. But as a scream fascism, fascism, it just
- 45:50Speaker 1: hurts my brain that they're so dumb that they utter
- 45:53Speaker 1: that word and try to link it to Donald Trump.
- 45:56Speaker 1: It's a reflection of the ignorance of the Democrats, I suppose.
- 46:01Speaker 1: And if I was among the crowd of people who
- 46:04Speaker 1: are clearly struggling with Trump arrangement sister syndrome. But if
- 46:07Speaker 1: I was on that side of the political ledger, and
- 46:09Speaker 1: I was trying to fight for my socialist ideology, which
- 46:12Speaker 1: I could easily label fascist ideology, the Nazis were in
- 46:15Speaker 1: fact the socialist party controlling the means of production. Right anyway,
- 46:21Speaker 1: I would trying to make some policy argument, and much
- 46:25Speaker 1: in the same way I have criticized the idea that
- 46:28Speaker 1: the mainstream media over the years loves to pick and
- 46:31Speaker 1: choose some representative from among the black community at large
- 46:36Speaker 1: and say that their voice represents the voice of all
- 46:39Speaker 1: people in the black community. I would be really angry
- 46:43Speaker 1: if I was a person of color, because no, no
- 46:45Speaker 1: one speaks for me. You can't paint with a broad brush.
- 46:48Speaker 1: What's more racist than saying all black people are the
- 46:51Speaker 1: same politically? Joe Biden did say that, didn't he If
- 46:56Speaker 1: you don't vote Democrat, you're not black. So I guess,
- 46:58Speaker 1: my black friends in the listening audience, you know the
- 47:01Speaker 1: answer to that question. Look in the mirror. Does your
- 47:04Speaker 1: political ideology change the color of your skin?
- 47:06Speaker 8: No?
- 47:07Speaker 1: But going back to this whole idea of fascism, if
- 47:09Speaker 1: I thought I had better ideas, if I thought that
- 47:12Speaker 1: my ideas compared to those policies of Donald Trump were better,
- 47:16Speaker 1: I could make an argument for them. Then I would
- 47:18Speaker 1: be doing that. But I also would be thoroughly embarrassed
- 47:21Speaker 1: and the first person to raise my hand up saying,
- 47:23Speaker 1: you know what, we're not all this definitionally stupid. Quit
- 47:29Speaker 1: saying fascism. If you don't understand the definition of the word,
- 47:33Speaker 1: don't lump me into the group of morons that you hold.
- 47:37Speaker 1: You know, you broad brush into this corner saying, yeah,
- 47:39Speaker 1: we all believe this. This guy's a fascist. No, I
- 47:42Speaker 1: don't like him, but he's not definitionally a fascist. You're
- 47:45Speaker 1: making me look stupid. Sorry, it's Monday and I had
- 47:52Speaker 1: to get that out of my system. I you may
- 47:56Speaker 1: feel differently, feel free to call five one three seven,
- 47:59Speaker 1: five hundred, eight hundred and eight to two three talk
- 48:02Speaker 1: found five fifty on AT and T phones. Everybody's trying
- 48:05Speaker 1: to get to the bottom of this, the whole riot gear.
- 48:07Speaker 1: I saw yet another article about how well organized these
- 48:10Speaker 1: antifile folks are. Yeah, these stoner, woke hipsters or whatever
- 48:15Speaker 1: you want to characterize the mass the radicals living on
- 48:18Speaker 1: the streets. It didn't work out real well to first
- 48:20Speaker 1: go around with antiphive. They all packed up their bags
- 48:22Speaker 1: and left the occupation of the streets. I guess because
- 48:26Speaker 1: Joe Biden got elected. But they're of course back this time.
- 48:30Speaker 1: They're having to go not at just the system. Generally speaking,
- 48:34Speaker 1: these anti fascist folks again a whole collection of morons
- 48:38Speaker 1: that have it wrong. But who's funding them? I saw
- 48:44Speaker 1: this article by a guy named Gregory Leikhoff, and he's
- 48:47Speaker 1: seen other articles talking about the major big donors behind it.
- 48:52Speaker 1: But he looked at these massive purchases of gear and
- 48:59Speaker 1: was able to there are all some conclusions there. He said,
- 49:01Speaker 1: these are not small individual purchases made by college students
- 49:04Speaker 1: pulling money for protests. Rather, the volume the scale, I
- 49:08Speaker 1: mean bulk orders exceeding one thousand items like for example,
- 49:12Speaker 1: ski masks or specialized respiratory equipment. Some orders exceeding ten
- 49:19Speaker 1: thousand units. He said, these items are not expensive. The
- 49:24Speaker 1: sheer volume of the orders goes beyond anything that could
- 49:27Speaker 1: be characterized as personal use, whether through established left wing nonprofits,
- 49:31Speaker 1: international benefactors, or wealthy ideologues. Money is clearly moving into
- 49:35Speaker 1: the hands of these radical groups who are determined to
- 49:38Speaker 1: disrupt civil life. Balk procurement of riot gear, I don't know.
- 49:44Speaker 1: Do you view that as part of a broader pattern.
- 49:48Speaker 1: Is this in some way, shape or form illegal. I
- 49:53Speaker 1: can't say that it necessarily is. Each of the items
- 49:55Speaker 1: that's being purchased is not illegal in and of itself,
- 49:59Speaker 1: but when you're buying ten thousand, three m multi per
- 50:03Speaker 1: purpose performance respirators, it makes one kind of wonder most
- 50:08Speaker 1: notably since they're all evenly distributed among the anti file
- 50:11Speaker 1: folks and the no Kings rally folks, making it appear
- 50:14Speaker 1: as though each of them has its own uniform. And
- 50:21Speaker 1: as I see in my mind's eye of the uniform,
- 50:24Speaker 1: black mass, you've got, black clothing, you've got, well, it
- 50:28Speaker 1: reminds me of the Cameer rouge. Maybe that's the look
- 50:31Speaker 1: they're trying to achieve. And they are, of course trying
- 50:37Speaker 1: to normalize political violence, normalize violence against federal law enforcement
- 50:45Speaker 1: agents the answer to the problem that you are facing.
- 50:48Speaker 1: To the extent you see the federal ice agents enforcing
- 50:52Speaker 1: federal law, not the job of state police to enforce
- 50:56Speaker 1: federal law, although assistance is always welcome. They're doing their job.
- 51:01Speaker 1: If you have a problem with federal law, appeal to
- 51:03Speaker 1: your elected officials. Oh wait a minute. The great American
- 51:06Speaker 1: people in electing Donald Trump and a let's see a
- 51:09Speaker 1: Republican House in a Republican Senate campaigning on cracking down
- 51:14Speaker 1: on illegal immigrants. Ooh, Thomas is egracious because he used
- 51:17Speaker 1: the definitionally accurate statement illegal illegal alien. Anyway, that's what
- 51:24Speaker 1: we voted for. The answer is to change the law.
- 51:31Speaker 1: I don't believe the American people issued a message that
- 51:34Speaker 1: they wanted the law to change, they wanted the law enforced,
- 51:38Speaker 1: and now that the law is finally being forced. In
- 51:40Speaker 1: stark contrast to the Biden administration, the left starts pulling
- 51:43Speaker 1: its tear out and can find nothing more to go after, say,
- 51:46Speaker 1: for example, Mayor Johnson than to complain about his use
- 51:50Speaker 1: of the word illegal alien six sixteen fifty five KRC
- 51:57Speaker 1: neat talk station Call me please, something you want to
- 52:00Speaker 1: talk about? Otherwise I have to let Tony the big
- 52:03Speaker 1: dog bender just heer the direction of the conversation, covering

- 53:26Speaker 1: came out just before the morning show started. Local WLWT
- 53:30Speaker 1: arrived on the scene at four am. Apparently a neighbor
- 53:32Speaker 1: said they heard several shots fired before cop showed up
- 53:36Speaker 1: place with the K nine units searching the area, and

- 54:00Speaker 12: had a question today about the electoral college and it's
- 54:06Speaker 12: you know, is it relevant for today as elections are
- 54:12Speaker 12: a little bit far off, But however, I would love
- 54:15Speaker 12: to hear your perspective as a libertarian to hear where
- 54:20Speaker 12: we find the electoral college relevant.
- 54:23Speaker 1: Well, I've always thought it was important given the allocation
- 54:26Speaker 1: of humanity in the United States, considering New York and
- 54:29Speaker 1: California obviously overwhelmingly size or compared to the rest of
- 54:33Speaker 1: the state's huge in population. The electoral College has an
- 54:36Speaker 1: impact of allowing states like oh flyover a country to
- 54:40Speaker 1: have some say in representative government, which I think is
- 54:42Speaker 1: the reason that's important. But who knows. As we move forward,
- 54:45Speaker 1: more and more people flee New York and California, and
- 54:49Speaker 1: some of the other major metropolitanians like Chicago, because while
- 54:52Speaker 1: they've been run into the toilet making life difficult for
- 54:55Speaker 1: the citizens who actually pay taxes, you may see a shift.
- 55:00Speaker 1: I've seen a lot of that people move into red states,
- 55:02Speaker 1: So the balance of power may be shifting over. Even
- 55:04Speaker 1: in the absence of an electoral college, you might stand
- 55:06Speaker 1: the chance of winning. But I'm comfortable with the way
- 55:09Speaker 1: the Founding Fathers set up the system to protect everyone
- 55:11Speaker 1: and give everyone a saying representative government. So I've never
- 55:14Speaker 1: heard an effective argument to just completely get rid of it.
- 55:18Speaker 1: Now you can make the argument, and I'm happy to
- 55:20Speaker 1: talk about that, But as I see it, I think
- 55:22Speaker 1: things are fine the way the Founding Fathers put it together.
- 55:25Speaker 12: Gris absolutely, yeah, absolutely, So when I think.
- 55:29Speaker 13: About electoral college, the power of you know, individuals to
- 55:33Speaker 13: be able to have their voice heard in their vote counted,
- 55:37Speaker 13: it seems a little bit diluted when it comes to
- 55:39Speaker 13: like grouping them together by state rather than one voice
- 55:43Speaker 13: is a nation, you know.
- 55:46Speaker 5: That's just my opinion though.
- 55:47Speaker 1: Right well, you know, and that balance of power is
- 55:50Speaker 1: driven I think largely by us. I mean, we live
- 55:54Speaker 1: in a representative form of government, so we're not in
- 55:56Speaker 1: a true democracy, so the majority does not decide. So
- 56:00Speaker 1: we know that. So we're already diluting the democracy concept,
- 56:04Speaker 1: and a democracy concept if you put it in play
- 56:08Speaker 1: is well not it doesn't work out real well. I mean,
- 56:12Speaker 1: are we going to vote literally on every piece of
- 56:13Speaker 1: legislation that comes out of some committee in Congress?
- 56:16Speaker 5: No?
- 56:17Speaker 1: Are we going to vote on every little local issue
- 56:19Speaker 1: as a democracy. I mean, it just gets That's why
- 56:21Speaker 1: we have a representative form, so that that, to me
- 56:25Speaker 1: is certainly a watering down, but it allows the process
- 56:28Speaker 1: to actually work a little bit more efficiently. And as
- 56:32Speaker 1: far as you know, Red states, Blue states, that's the
- 56:34Speaker 1: people we decide that. And think about the number of
- 56:38Speaker 1: people who actually decide that, the number of people who
- 56:40Speaker 1: actually vote, Chris, look at the election of the city
- 56:43Speaker 1: of Cincinnati. By all accounts, we're expecting a voter turnout
- 56:46Speaker 1: of twenty five percent. Now, if every single human being
- 56:50Speaker 1: in the city of Cincinnati actually cast the vote, would
- 56:53Speaker 1: it be that overwhelmingly blue? I don't know. Not everybody votes,
- 56:59Speaker 1: we're left toy.
- 57:00Speaker 5: I know.
- 57:00Speaker 1: Polls go out there and people presume, based upon polling information,
- 57:04Speaker 1: that it is. But if push comes to shove and
- 57:06Speaker 1: people get off their butts and say, you know what,
- 57:08Speaker 1: I'm not happy, I'm no longer vote I'm going to
- 57:10Speaker 1: vote blue. Things might change, but most of them will
- 57:13Speaker 1: just wash their hands of the whole process, or in
- 57:15Speaker 1: many cases not even though there's an election next Tuesday
- 57:19Speaker 1: and the whole thing will fly by and they'll miss it. Yeah,
- 57:22Speaker 1: we are the biggest problem. Whether you have an electoral
- 57:25Speaker 1: college or not, whether it's representative former democracy or not,
- 57:28Speaker 1: it's ultimately the people who actually cast the votes that
- 57:30Speaker 1: are most important. And sadly, too many people do choose
- 57:35Speaker 1: not to participate in the democratic process. So thank you, Chris,
- 57:41Speaker 1: very true well said, I appreciate it, but I appreciate
- 57:43Speaker 1: your call, I really do. It's something you know, we
- 57:46Speaker 1: don't always talk about, but I'm quick to remind everyone.
- 57:50Speaker 1: You know, it's like they're blowing up votes in the
- 57:52Speaker 1: in the Caribbean over by Venezuela. And you know, I
- 57:54Speaker 1: might be against that conceptually, but who's to blame for
- 57:58Speaker 1: the damn boat coming to the United States? We are
- 58:02Speaker 1: we got a drug problem in this country. They we're
- 58:05Speaker 1: not the only country. But hey, if you're upset about
- 58:08Speaker 1: drugs being deliver in the United States. I don't think
- 58:10Speaker 1: you necessarily have to upset about those who are, you know,
- 58:13Speaker 1: feeding the supply. They have to eat too, Oh my god,
- 58:16Speaker 1: they would be starving if they didn't have the drug industry,
- 58:18Speaker 1: because there's literally nothing else going on in Venezuela that
- 58:21Speaker 1: makes money. These people are driven to dealing drugs. These
- 58:25Speaker 1: poor people, maybe they need a government program. And if
- 58:30Speaker 1: that was the argument, we'd be pointing to the citizens
- 58:33Speaker 1: of the United States of America who while basically fuel
- 58:36Speaker 1: the entire profit making endeavor six twenty five fifty five
- 58:40Speaker 1: care see the talk station. Foreign Exchange had the Foreign
- 58:44Speaker 1: Exchange experience last week. Got the Kia in there. Yeah,
- 58:48Speaker 1: that's the replacement for the Honda, which is in well
- 58:52Speaker 1: good hands with my son. But we had Kiya now
- 58:54Speaker 1: and I had the oil. Change did a great job,
- 58:56Speaker 1: did a multipoint inspection as I headed into winter. But
- 58:58Speaker 1: since it's not that old, it came through with flying colors.
- 59:01Speaker 1: That's because Foreign Exchange did the checkover. I know it
- 59:04Speaker 1: came through with flying colors. And of course the price
- 59:07Speaker 1: was great. That's what Foreign Exchange is all about, to
- 59:09Speaker 1: service your car and charge you less than the dealer.
- 59:12Speaker 1: You don't sacrifice on anything because a se certified Master
- 59:15Speaker 1: technicians will be working on your car. You get a
- 59:17Speaker 1: full warranty on parts in service. They literally do anything
- 59:20Speaker 1: for all traditionally manufactured cars coming from Asia Europe and
- 59:24Speaker 1: the upgrade or the addition of Tesla's. Yes, they're all
- 59:28Speaker 1: trained to work on Tesla's as well. So the Westchester

- 1:00:10Speaker 1: that fourth quarter, weren't you? Anyway?
- 1:00:12Speaker 14: Uh?
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: What do we got here? We got a thirty nine
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: year old guy jumped off the Purple People Bridge October
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: twenty fourth, about six thirty in the morning. Marymount Police
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: officers dispatch of the thirty eight hundred block of Homewood
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: and Report of a for report of an assault and

- 1:00:28Speaker 1: forty one years old had been stabbed multiple times, fortunately
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: non life threatening injuries. That guy who did the stabbing
- 1:00:34Speaker 1: left the scene in his vehicle right before the officers
- 1:00:36Speaker 1: showed up. After he fled. According to the release, he
- 1:00:39Speaker 1: was encountered by the Newport Police Department in the Newport's
- 1:00:43Speaker 1: South Bank Bridge aka Purple People Bridge. He jumped into
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: the Ohio River after the Newport police got into an
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: interaction with him. Don't know what the extent of the
- 1:00:51Speaker 1: interaction was, but over the brail he went since a
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: fired department said thirty seven firefighters were dispatched to the
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: bridge to try to rescue him. He was pulled out
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: out of the water, successfully taking to UC Medical Center
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: with non life threatening injuries. Now charged with felonia'ssault and
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: domestic violence. Merrimunt Police Folkson said his identity is not
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: being released at this time. That would be the time
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: of the Cincinnati Empiryor's reporting on the matter. Police are
- 1:01:17Speaker 1: looking for an armed and dangerous guy west Price Hillman
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: who's been accused of fatally shooting another man in Mount
- 1:01:23Speaker 1: Airy earlier this month. Edinson Anthony Guacia Ascanio, thirty years old,
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: got a worn out facing murder charges, hasn't been arrested,
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: should be considered armed in dangerous acording to the police
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: news release, Escanello's charges in connection with the death of

- 1:01:57Speaker 1: were at a birthday party. They got into a verbal fight,
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: leading to Escanio shooting Mercado Perez. Witness positively identified Ascanio
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: as a shooter and apparently Mercado Perez was not even
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: armed at the time. Homicide Unit investigations on Wing. If
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: you got any information three five two thirty forty three
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: five to two thirty forty or you can call the
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: homicide department. But I just say with crime stoppers, it's
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: easy to remember five one, three, three, five to two
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: thirty forty ah, but crimes dan here At the conclusion
- 1:02:33Speaker 1: of this article, according to police data, there have been
- 1:02:36Speaker 1: fifty five reported homicides citywide this year. There had been
- 1:02:39Speaker 1: fifty seven reported homicides this time is citywide last year.
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: We call that a success. Two men, prosecutors say put
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: a thirty thousand dollars bounty on a victim among four
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: suspect charges in a killing that happened well almost a
- 1:02:59Speaker 1: decade ago. Brandon Webster thirty three Romelo Stephen Wheeler thirty
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: accused of offering thirty grand to kill Kareem Howell back
- 1:03:06Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen. Hamilton County Prosecutor's Offices said Charlie Day
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: twenty nine and Darius Holly thirty two led Howell into
- 1:03:14Speaker 1: a wooded area in Westwood and then fatally shot him.
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: Howl was targeted because he was involved in at least
- 1:03:20Speaker 1: one home invasion in robbery where Webster's mom was terrorized.
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: After Daily and Holly presented proof of the killing, Webster
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: and Wheeler paid the bounty. According to the prosecutor's office,
- 1:03:31Speaker 1: three of the four men were in custody when they
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: were indicted October twenty third by the Hamilton County Grand
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: jurand multiple charges connected with the killing of Howell Wheeler,
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: now in federal prison serving a twelve year sentence for
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: drug trafficking. Federal prosecutors have described him as a career
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: drug trafficker who, along with his dad, used a luxury
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: apartment in Pendleton to store drugs and conduct drug transactions.
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: Daly previously has drug convictions, been in the Hamilton County
- 1:03:58Speaker 1: Justice Center since October of twenty five, twenty two, after
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: being charged in connection with a killing from the summer
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: of that year. Holly in state prison serving one and
- 1:04:07Speaker 1: a half years for drugging gun convictions. That's a quality
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: cast of characters involved in that, and let's see we
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: get one more in here in the remaining time. Construction
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: worker injured after being hit by a vehicle, leading the
- 1:04:22Speaker 1: driver to being arrested. This according to the Kenton County
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: Sheriff's Departments, who said they were called to the Madison
- 1:04:26Speaker 1: Pike to Madison Pike near Waynman Drive for reports of
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: a pedestrian hit by a car. It happened Saturday at
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: almost two o'clock in the afternoon. Construction worker directing traffic
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: when a man driving a pickup hit him, causing what
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: is described as injury. Construction worker taking a ec medical
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: center for treatment. His condition listed his stable driver the
- 1:04:48Speaker 1: pickup truck arrested shortly after the incident, being charged with
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: felonious assault, and at the time of the reporting from
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: Fox nineteen's digital staff was being held in the Kent
- 1:04:56Speaker 1: County Detention Center. Real quick here, I was so sad
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: to see this, you know, I got Tom Brenneman within
- 1:05:03Speaker 1: twenty feet of me, and I saw the Cincinna Reds
- 1:05:06Speaker 1: and now have to investigate the recently unveiled Marty Brenneman's statue.
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: The microphone, of course, Marty, you know I did the
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: commentary for the Reds for forty six years. Microphone part
- 1:05:18Speaker 1: of the statue is broken off. They say it's not
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: clear whether the damage was due to vandalism or not,
- 1:05:22Speaker 1: but something tells me they probably have cameras in the area.
- 1:05:27Speaker 1: Sorry to see that though. At six point thirty five

- 1:07:08Speaker 1: or five Money Money with Brian James, how the shutdown
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: is affecting, Well, maybe not everything, but a lot of things.
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: Gas prices remain flaty two dollars and eighty cents or
- 1:07:21Speaker 1: something the other day for regular gasoline. That's amazed at that.
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: Betsy sentnamon We're gonna hear from Betsy Judge Sentnomon eight
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: thirty Liberal Judges if elected one to one act smart Justice.
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: She is going to let everyone know what the hell
- 1:07:33Speaker 1: smart Justice is. She'll be on the program at eight thirty.
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: And then we're gonna hear from the Cincinnava Joe Beth
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: Ackerson with some incent information about the Cincinnava, whose services
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: apparently have not been impacted by the shutdown. Let's turn
- 1:07:45Speaker 1: to Christy Nome. Christy ne Nohome, US Secretary of Homeland Security,
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: in an open letter to everyone, stating the obvious but
- 1:07:52Speaker 1: hammering home some great points. Fast forward past her, Charlie
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: Kirk comments and boiling down the reality of leftists dreams,
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: who she says, are waging war on the rule of law, liberty,
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: and our way of life. I can't agree with her.
- 1:08:04Speaker 1: More on that, terrorist gang members and rioters routinely attacking
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: federal law enforcement officers working to reimpose order after years
- 1:08:12Speaker 1: of chaos under the Biden administration. Remember they're doing their job,
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: she writes. Our officers have been shot and assaulted. They
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: face death threats, dosing, and confrontations in their homes. Spot
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: Her networks in Chicago, linked to street gangs and Mexican cartels,
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: track the movements of officers for customs and border protections
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: as well as immigration and customs enforcement, relaying locations and
- 1:08:39Speaker 1: enabling ambushes during routine enforcement operations. This run, by interjecting here,
- 1:08:45Speaker 1: run by street gangs of Mexican cartels who're trying to
- 1:08:47Speaker 1: keep ahead of the ICE agents who will pick them
- 1:08:50Speaker 1: up and send them out of the country. This kind
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: of effort also coordinated by our elected members of Congress
- 1:09:02Speaker 1: and encouraged by certain governors. I mean, I feel like
- 1:09:07Speaker 1: we're at a moment of crisis here in our country.
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: Stating it lightly anyway, she points out this month, a
- 1:09:18Speaker 1: member of the Latin Kings. That's a gang charged with
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: putting a bounty on him, the life of a border
- 1:09:23Speaker 1: patrol commander, a guy named a large, Gregory Bovino or
- 1:09:27Speaker 1: Gregory Bovino, he's the Border patrol commander at large. The
- 1:09:30Speaker 1: illegal alien. Oh, she's a racist because she definitionally is
- 1:09:34Speaker 1: accurate by saying illegal alien. Sorry, going back to my
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: comments about Brandon Johnson. Anyway, the illegal alien charge of
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: placing a bounty was arrested, pleaded, not guilties facing justice.
- 1:09:45Speaker 1: The incident shows how enormous risk law enforcement officers are
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: facing to make our cities safe again. The self styled
- 1:09:51Speaker 1: anarchist website in Portland, Oregon, encouraged supporters to use high
- 1:09:56Speaker 1: powered laser pointers to bring down federal helicopters in the
- 1:09:59Speaker 1: air that can blind a pilot and Dallas and an
- 1:10:06Speaker 1: anti ICE terrorist opened fire on ICE facility, intending to
- 1:10:09Speaker 1: kill the officers. I know you remember about this. One
- 1:10:11Speaker 1: ended up killing two of the detainees. Alorado, Texas at
- 1:10:15Speaker 1: if A, terrorists ambushed ice officers and a detention facility,
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: wounding a local police officer in the neck. Despite all
- 1:10:22Speaker 1: this pro crime, politicians seemed intent on dismissing the violence,
- 1:10:26Speaker 1: even encouraging it by stripping protections from law enforcement officers.
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: That is why our officers wear a mask. Protecting their
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: identity is one way to prevent bad actors from targeting
- 1:10:35Speaker 1: their homes and threatening their families. Some politicians wanted to
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: deprive officers of this protection, knowing that doing so puts
- 1:10:43Speaker 1: their lives in grave danger. They tell local police to
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: stand down while federal law enforcement officers fight for their lives.
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a law purporting to ban
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: federal law enforcement from wearing masks on duty. Illinois Governor JB.
- 1:11:02Speaker 1: Pritzker has threatened federal officers with prosecution for enforcing immigration law.
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: Federal law on the books. Antifa continues its attacks on
- 1:11:15Speaker 1: law enforcement and innocent civilians in Portland while quote unquote
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: leaders hamsterring the local police. Let me think about that,
- 1:11:22Speaker 1: we live in a country where our local law enforcement
- 1:11:24Speaker 1: officers are being told not to help brother officers, yes,
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: a different uniform, but law enforcement officers working for the
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: federal government enforcing federal law who are victims of state
- 1:11:39Speaker 1: law crimes. If some Antifa guy throws a brick and
- 1:11:44Speaker 1: hits a federal officer, yes, they may be charged with
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: a federal crime. But a local police officer who witnesses
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: something like that owes it to the community to arrest
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: the person throwing the brick, as they violated state law
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: in accosting someone in doing grievous bodily armed to them.
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: State law still applies regardless of who that person is
- 1:12:06Speaker 1: being hit with a brick. Christy nolans that she met
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: with Portland Mayor Keith Wilson last month to requests more
- 1:12:13Speaker 1: security measures for our law enforcement officers, federal ones who've
- 1:12:17Speaker 1: been under attack for months in his city. Mister Wilson
- 1:12:20Speaker 1: responded by publishing an op ed attacking federal law enforcement
- 1:12:23Speaker 1: officers for doing the job he refuses to do. Noll interjecting,
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: stateum is known that it's not necessarily the local folks
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: job to protect federal property and to protect federal officers.
- 1:12:35Speaker 1: There are federal laws with's govern that, but because it's
- 1:12:38Speaker 1: property and people, state law applies to it as well.
- 1:12:42Speaker 1: And if this weird period in time wasn't going on,
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: rewind to an era when Donald Trump was not president.
- 1:12:49Speaker 1: I assure you that the Portland law enforcement officials, if
- 1:12:53Speaker 1: you're spray painting a federal building or throwing a Molotov
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: cocktail out of it, would have arrested you for violating
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: state law. And then maybe some eucal local US attorney
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: would have charged you with federal law for doing that.
- 1:13:05Speaker 1: But at least the local police department would have done
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: their job. Not anymore they've been told not to. How
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: colossally screwed up is that Portland's problems go well belong
- 1:13:19Speaker 1: beyond mir refuse to enforce it the law, Its city
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: council continues to cut police bureau's budget. Portland ranks forty
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: eighth among the America's fifty largest cities in the ratio
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: of policing staffing the population. Meanwhile, leftists, rioters, antifah, terrorists,
- 1:13:33Speaker 1: and violent criminals run wild. That's why the federal government
- 1:13:40Speaker 1: must step in and force the long stand up to
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: the violence that these politicians cannot or will not confront
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: as it did in Memphis, Tennessee, Chicago, and the District
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: of Columbia. President Trump is tackling the crisis had on
- 1:13:52Speaker 1: including designating ANTIFAD Domestic Terrorists Organization. Meanwhile, the mainstream media
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: continues to demonize ICE and Department of Homeland Secure the Officers,
- 1:14:00Speaker 1: contributing to the one thousand percent increase in assaults on
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: officers this year compared with last year. Shouldn't be surprised
- 1:14:09Speaker 1: Democrats won't anounce Virginia Attorney General candidate Jay Jones text
- 1:14:12Speaker 1: messages wishing violence on his political opponents and their young children.
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: At No King's rallies, many Democrats gave speeches and made
- 1:14:19Speaker 1: common cause with protesters, reveling in violent symbolism, mocking Charlie
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: Kirk's assassination and calling for ICE agents to be gunned down.
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: The threat goes beyond criminals, rioters, and terrorists themselves to
- 1:14:34Speaker 1: their enablers, including a network of nonprofits the support extremist ideology,
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: recruit pro crime district attorneys, and pay to release violent
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: criminals on bond. This climate of political violence is against
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: everything our founders wanted. And let me stop right there
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: and just say you know what, isn't that a revealing thing?
- 1:14:55Speaker 1: And doesn't that answer the question on why they're doing this. Yes,
- 1:15:01Speaker 1: they're against anything our founding fathers want. Their belief system
- 1:15:05Speaker 1: is predicated on the notion that our founding fathers were
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: inherently racist and evil. The mere fact that they were
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: white people and some of them had the audacity to
- 1:15:13Speaker 1: own slaves. Not something that I'll forgive, but something that
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: was a real thing going on back then. The hearts
- 1:15:19Speaker 1: and minds that people have changed. We have a different
- 1:15:21Speaker 1: perception of reality. We know black people are human beings
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: and they always should have been perceived that way, Thank
- 1:15:26Speaker 1: God for evolution. But because of that background fact everything
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: they did was inherently evil and wrong, and that we
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: should undo everything that they did. They created the greatest,
- 1:15:38Speaker 1: most powerful, most economically successful country in the world has
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: ever known. They created a place where a table has
- 1:15:45Speaker 1: been set for literally anyone who chooses to participate and
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: sit down at the table and enjoy the benefits and
- 1:15:50Speaker 1: fruits of their own labor and merit. That's what they
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: want to tear down. That's the point of all this
- 1:15:56Speaker 1: against everything our founders wanted. Six forty nine to fifty

- 1:16:13Speaker 1: I thought about lighting the gas fireplace that I've got.
- 1:16:16Speaker 1: Got this beautiful fireplace insert from Chimney Care Fireplace in Stove.
- 1:16:20Speaker 1: Their showroom has got a whole bunch of those fireplace
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: inserts for you to choose from. Think about your safety though,
- 1:16:27Speaker 1: If you haven't yet had your chimney inspected and swept out,
- 1:16:29Speaker 1: it's a great time to do it, well, anytimes, a
- 1:16:32Speaker 1: great time if it hasn't been done for a while
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: cause you burn your house down. Yeah, that's certainly this
- 1:16:36Speaker 1: thing possibility. Chimney fires can either crack the lining or
- 1:16:40Speaker 1: maybe ultimately bring the house down. You don't want any
- 1:16:42Speaker 1: of that to happen, of course, not certified chimney sweeps
- 1:16:45Speaker 1: doing a full video camera inspection top to bottom and
- 1:16:47Speaker 1: make sure you're lining isn't cracked, to figure out what
- 1:16:49Speaker 1: state your chimneys in. Is there water damage going on
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: in there that you don't know about. They do chimney waterproofing,
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: they do blining replacement, cap and damper replacement. Of course,

- 1:17:32Speaker 1: talk station Christopher Smitheman coming up at seven twenty. He
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: got an OpEd piece from afte Pervoll trying to tell
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: you what he accomplished and all the great things he
- 1:17:41Speaker 1: accomplished in the last four years. Really yeah, I can
- 1:17:44Speaker 1: get into the details on that because I have a
- 1:17:46Speaker 1: feeling Christopher may want to comment on that. Early voting
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: is open, saying again what everyone should already know. But
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: since Christopher told me, a lot of people didn't even
- 1:17:54Speaker 1: realize we have an election next week. As he goes
- 1:17:56Speaker 1: knocking door to door in the various neighborhoods. I found
- 1:17:59Speaker 1: that to be a very fright frightening, frightening and kind
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: of bubble bursting reality for me, like to think more
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: people pay attention to politics than they do. But if
- 1:18:07Speaker 1: you don't even know in elections coming up, most important
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: election for the city of Cincinnati, given it's going to
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: determine who's going to be running this city for the
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: next few years. Yeah, that we have a major problem
- 1:18:18Speaker 1: on our hands. Anyhow, So you can vote today, make
- 1:18:21Speaker 1: sure you know when the Board of Elections is open.

- 1:21:04Speaker 1: you're doing that. Let's see here over to Aftab Parvoll.
- 1:21:09Speaker 1: One week from tomorrow the election anywall described as an
- 1:21:16Speaker 1: opinion contributor as opposed to the mayor of the City
- 1:21:17Speaker 1: of Cincinnati af to have Parvall getting some print in
- 1:21:20Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Inquirer. Let's see what Aftab has to say,
- 1:21:24Speaker 1: and you can draw your own conclusions on whether there's
- 1:21:26Speaker 1: anything to show for his last four years. He starts
- 1:21:28Speaker 1: out four years ago this city Council and I entered
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: office amid historic crises. We faced the city rock, a
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: city hall rocked by corruption. In case you don't know
- 1:21:41Speaker 1: what he's referring to, because he didn't break it down
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: too much, that'll be the Gang of five, including Greg Lansman,
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: all Democrats, meeting behind the scenes, making decisions before they
- 1:21:50Speaker 1: were in public, before their comments were reflected in public,
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: knowing full well in advanced what was going to pass
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: and what wasn't. Because they all coordinated the reference behind
- 1:21:57Speaker 1: the scene, which violates the open meeting records. That's the
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: corruption he's referring to, notably all Democrats. He goes on
- 1:22:07Speaker 1: a budget gutted by the pandemic. Well, he didn't mention
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: anything about the millions and millions of dollars the federal
- 1:22:13Speaker 1: government gave the county as well as the city of
- 1:22:14Speaker 1: Cincinnatian form of pandemic relief. But we'll ignore that community
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: is devastated by COVID nineteen. We knew we had to
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: rebuild trust, trust in our institutions, and trust in a
- 1:22:26Speaker 1: system that had already left so many of us behind.
- 1:22:29Speaker 1: You know, I did a quick survey and looked back
- 1:22:32Speaker 1: over who ran the city of Cincinnati. You can go
- 1:22:34Speaker 1: all the way back forty full years. Last time we
- 1:22:37Speaker 1: had someone who wasn't a Democrat running the city. It
- 1:22:39Speaker 1: was a charter right named Arn Boords. You remember Arn.
- 1:22:44Speaker 1: Thereafter Charlie Luke and Democrat, David Mann Democrat, Dwight Tillery Democrat,
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: Rock stand Qualls Democrat, Charlie Lucan Democrat, Mark Mallory Democrat,
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: John Cranley Democrat, and then have to have pur All Democrat.
- 1:22:56Speaker 1: So where did the trust in leadership, trust an institution,
- 1:23:00Speaker 1: in trust in a system that had left so many
- 1:23:01Speaker 1: people behind after forty years. I think the errors point
- 1:23:06Speaker 1: pretty clearly. The Democrats run in the city of Cincinnati,
- 1:23:08Speaker 1: where did the trust go? I didn't have control of
- 1:23:11Speaker 1: the situation, clearly, Republicans didn't. Anyway. Back to AFB opinion contributor,
- 1:23:19Speaker 1: we didn't just promise progress he's referring now to himself
- 1:23:22Speaker 1: and the current administration. We delivered laying the foundations for
- 1:23:28Speaker 1: a city built for the people who make it great. Yeah,
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: that doesn't say anything. This council and I didn't just
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: talk about affordability. We freed a third of our city
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: from medical debt. And don't even get me started on that.
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: When his medical debt that had been written off, the
- 1:23:46Speaker 1: medical providers were not going after the citizens who incurred
- 1:23:49Speaker 1: this debt had been written off, and yet he went
- 1:23:51Speaker 1: ahead and took credit for money that had already been
- 1:23:53Speaker 1: written off. So there's that one hundred and ten thousand
- 1:23:55Speaker 1: people who are now free to build families, unburdened by
- 1:23:57Speaker 1: over two hundred million dollars of debt, the cost of
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: simply staying healthy. You know, if you're a weed dweller
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: in the city of Cincinnati, if you knew there was
- 1:24:06Speaker 1: an election next Tuesday. You could read that sentence and
- 1:24:08Speaker 1: see right through it like I did. It's easy to
- 1:24:11Speaker 1: investigate the backstory on that one as well. Back to
- 1:24:14Speaker 1: Alf ten, This Council and I invested in our city's
- 1:24:17Speaker 1: next generation, creating baby bonds, savings accounts for underserved preschoolers
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: to one day pay for higher education. We even the
- 1:24:28Speaker 1: playing field, empowering citizens of any background to build a
- 1:24:31Speaker 1: generational wealth regardless of incomer zip code. Kind of hollow
- 1:24:35Speaker 1: in that explanation. Do you feel the playing field's been
- 1:24:41Speaker 1: even regardless of your incomer zip code? This Council and
- 1:24:48Speaker 1: I protected our most vulnerable children, creating access to legal
- 1:24:52Speaker 1: counsel and emergency of victim fund, eviction funds for housing
- 1:24:55Speaker 1: insecure families. Tonight, over six hundred and fifty families and
- 1:24:59Speaker 1: hundreds of children and sleep safely in homes secured through
- 1:25:02Speaker 1: our interventions in that town full of three hundred thousand
- 1:25:07Speaker 1: or so people. There's six hundred and fifty votes, I guess.
- 1:25:12Speaker 1: But we didn't just secure. We didn't just secure our
- 1:25:15Speaker 1: safety nets. We transformed our antiquated systems to build a growing,
- 1:25:21Speaker 1: greater Cincinnati. This council took historic action slashing through the
- 1:25:26Speaker 1: red tape, constricting growth by comprehensively rezoning our city. I
- 1:25:32Speaker 1: think he's referring to connected communities, which a lot of
- 1:25:36Speaker 1: neighborhoods weren't real thrilled about because he didn't bother consulting
- 1:25:39Speaker 1: with any given neighborhood about what they might want for
- 1:25:41Speaker 1: the direction of their neighborhood development. Remember that whole High
- 1:25:44Speaker 1: Park thing, the whole Bond Hill thing, and then every
- 1:25:46Speaker 1: other neighborhood's is now covered by connected communities when they
- 1:25:48Speaker 1: might not want to follow the directors of connected communities
- 1:25:51Speaker 1: that would be have to have pur Ball taking credit
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: for putting a one size fits all solution to the
- 1:25:56Speaker 1: entire city of Cincinnati without regard for what the residents
- 1:25:58Speaker 1: might want. Course issuing a waiver when it came to
- 1:26:01Speaker 1: connected communities being applied to Hyde Park. No, No, they
- 1:26:05Speaker 1: get a waiver, I guess because it's a well connected
- 1:26:07Speaker 1: developer doing the project. Okay, and did they slash through
- 1:26:13Speaker 1: red tape? Ask Corey Bowman about that. How easy it
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: is to get some new project done in perhaps the
- 1:26:18Speaker 1: West at here Right back to Purvol, Not only are
- 1:26:22Speaker 1: new residents arriving at the fastest rate, in decades, but
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: we are also the first city in Ohio to implement
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: structural changes to accommodate our growing population. Now, I'm going
- 1:26:33Speaker 1: to ask someone out there in the world. Are new
- 1:26:41Speaker 1: residents arriving at the fastest rate in decades into the
- 1:26:43Speaker 1: city of Cincinnati. That runs contrary to my anecdotal you
- 1:26:48Speaker 1: know information from people who just generally say they either
- 1:26:51Speaker 1: fled or are planning on fleeing the city of Cincinnati crime.
- 1:26:55Speaker 1: What are the issues? Back to AFTAB, this council and
- 1:26:58Speaker 1: I didn't just promise how development. We tripled the rate
- 1:27:01Speaker 1: of affordable housing construction. I can't answer whether that's sure
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: or not. I don't recall reading anything along those lines anyway.
- 1:27:10Speaker 1: He pivots over to our goal forty thousand new units
- 1:27:15Speaker 1: in the next ten years. Yeah, and what zero carbon
- 1:27:18Speaker 1: emissions in the next ten years. I have a goal too.
- 1:27:21Speaker 1: Do I think my goal is gonna come true? Yeah? Right, No,
- 1:27:24Speaker 1: I don't, but I've got a goal for the first
- 1:27:29Speaker 1: time in decades. He says, we are seeing positive momentum
- 1:27:32Speaker 1: towards that goal throughout our neighborhoods. But it's not just homes.
- 1:27:39Speaker 1: Thanks to our work rezoning, we took even boulder action
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: reimagining our city's cornerstone landmarks. This council invested in the
- 1:27:49Speaker 1: six hundred million dollar Convention Center renovations, solidifying Cincinnati as
- 1:27:52Speaker 1: the prime destination for global business and entrepreneurship. I think
- 1:27:56Speaker 1: a project that's been going on and preceded aftab per
- 1:27:59Speaker 1: Balls administration. But that's okay. He also has taking credit
- 1:28:02Speaker 1: for the Brent's Brent's Bedge construction project. In the next sentence,
- 1:28:07Speaker 1: we won the single largest infrastructure granted American history, one
- 1:28:11Speaker 1: point six billion dollars to build the Brent Spence Companion Bridge.
- 1:28:14Speaker 1: By renovating a key rd re for the American commerce,
- 1:28:17Speaker 1: the path over two billion dollars of trade every day.
- 1:28:20Speaker 1: We also reclaim two city blocks of land and continue
- 1:28:23Speaker 1: renewing our urban core. Might I remind my listening audience
- 1:28:27Speaker 1: who probably remembers this already, Barack Obama is campaigning in
- 1:28:31Speaker 1: front of the Brents Benz Bridge project, promising to get
- 1:28:34Speaker 1: that thing done. This has been a glean and political
- 1:28:37Speaker 1: politician's eyes now for years and years. It happened to
- 1:28:39Speaker 1: have happened on his watch. You're gonna give have to
- 1:28:42Speaker 1: have pervall the credit for all of the groundwork and
- 1:28:45Speaker 1: all the trips back and forth to Washington, and all
- 1:28:48Speaker 1: the phone calls and all the politicians in Hamilton County
- 1:28:51Speaker 1: Northern Kentucky, governors in both states have made to get
- 1:28:54Speaker 1: that project done over the years. Trump campaign in front
- 1:28:59Speaker 1: of it, Biden campaign in front of it. There's they
- 1:29:03Speaker 1: have to have coming in to take credit for the win.
- 1:29:08Speaker 1: And then over to this, we didn't just unleash the
- 1:29:11Speaker 1: engine to development. We funded growth in every single neighborhood. Fred,
- 1:29:16Speaker 1: you're out there, do you feel that way? Thanks to
- 1:29:18Speaker 1: this council's courage, we created the Railroad Trust Fund, seating
- 1:29:23Speaker 1: it with one point six billion dollars in more than
- 1:29:25Speaker 1: doubling our yearly investment into our city's renovation, our roads,
- 1:29:28Speaker 1: parks and facilities. Well, I'll give him credit for selling
- 1:29:32Speaker 1: the railroad as bad as I think that idea is,
- 1:29:34Speaker 1: and of course chrism And shares my criticism on that.
- 1:29:37Speaker 1: But how do you feel about the roads and parks
- 1:29:39Speaker 1: and facilities being renovated? Has anything been done yet? Has
- 1:29:42Speaker 1: Sunset been repaved yet? Now Cincinnati has an ongoing increase
- 1:29:47Speaker 1: stream of dedicated funds. Yeah, apparently they're not using for
- 1:29:52Speaker 1: Cincinnati to grow, he writes, we must we must be
- 1:29:54Speaker 1: free to build beyond just bridges and businesses, but communities
- 1:29:59Speaker 1: and families. We'll get rid of the regulatory burden that
- 1:30:01Speaker 1: standing in the way. Maybe even connected communities we might
- 1:30:03Speaker 1: feel free to build. And then crime. That's why most
- 1:30:09Speaker 1: of all this council and I didn't just talk about crime.
- 1:30:12Speaker 1: We tackled the public safety concerns had on as a
- 1:30:18Speaker 1: standalone statement. Some people may be laughing right now. We
- 1:30:22Speaker 1: are modernizing our public safety system, investing nearly fourteen million
- 1:30:25Speaker 1: to train new firefighters and police officers, over four point
- 1:30:28Speaker 1: five million to provide them with state of the art equipment,
- 1:30:30Speaker 1: at over eighty million towards fleet renovation and facility modernization
- 1:30:33Speaker 1: for our trucks, cruisers, and stations. Those problems existed when
- 1:30:36Speaker 1: he took office, and only now is he saying that
- 1:30:39Speaker 1: he is doing something about him. You know, it's kind
- 1:30:42Speaker 1: of funny. I went and looked at all the COVID
- 1:30:43Speaker 1: money that came in, and it was a quote by
- 1:30:50Speaker 1: Christopher Smithaman then vice mayor, and then Councilman Steve Gooden,
- 1:30:55Speaker 1: both whom we may bring back with regard to the
- 1:30:59Speaker 1: cod money, coming in. We got federal aid twenty twenty one,
- 1:31:02Speaker 1: two hundred and ninety one million dollars. We got fifty
- 1:31:05Speaker 1: one point two million dollars in twenty twenty. Smithman and
- 1:31:09Speaker 1: Goodin at the time said they wanted the city to
- 1:31:11Speaker 1: recruit more police with the money and provide additional training
- 1:31:13Speaker 1: for police to deal with people that have mental issues.
- 1:31:15Speaker 1: They signed a motion calling for the funding, reminding people
- 1:31:19Speaker 1: that the city police officers had the contingent had already
- 1:31:22Speaker 1: dipped below one thousand for the first time in a decade.
- 1:31:25Speaker 1: This is back in twenty twenty one. Has anything happened.
- 1:31:28Speaker 1: Has the contingent of police increased or decrease sent since then?
- 1:31:31Speaker 1: If you're not paying attention, it's gone down. Seven eighteen

- 1:32:27Speaker 1: Since I soon to be a counselman again, I'm praying
- 1:32:30Speaker 1: and I'm hoping the City of Cincinnati residents show up
- 1:32:33Speaker 1: in Forest to vote for at least Christopher Smithment for
- 1:32:36Speaker 1: council next Tuesday. Welcome back, Christopher. It's pleasure having you
- 1:32:38Speaker 1: on as always.
- 1:32:40Speaker 5: Oh thank you so much for having me on, just
- 1:32:42Speaker 5: to share with you. My voice is a little shanky,
- 1:32:45Speaker 5: a little weak, but that's just because we're working really hard,
- 1:32:47Speaker 5: a lot of do order door work. But let me
- 1:32:50Speaker 5: share this with you. Brian, First, thank you for acknowledging
- 1:32:54Speaker 5: the work that council Member Good and I were doing
- 1:32:57Speaker 5: pre emptive, being preemptive of what you're talking about. Meeting,
- 1:33:01Speaker 5: we saw the decline in police officers. This is what
- 1:33:05Speaker 5: is very important for your listening audience to digest. This
- 1:33:10Speaker 5: is a defund reimagine as a collective council. So they're
- 1:33:17Speaker 5: not interested in getting more officers because through attrition, being
- 1:33:24Speaker 5: silent on the issue, they're getting what they want. They
- 1:33:27Speaker 5: want fewer officers, they want counselors responding to nine to
- 1:33:31Speaker 5: one one calls, and clearly they've been sitting the message
- 1:33:34Speaker 5: that they don't support cops. And so we've seen this
- 1:33:38Speaker 5: going on over the last four years with his mayor,
- 1:33:41Speaker 5: We've seen it with the members of council, and so
- 1:33:44Speaker 5: none of us should be surprised. I just want you
- 1:33:46Speaker 5: to know that they don't have to tell you it.
- 1:33:50Speaker 5: They're just allowing attrition to get them where they wanted
- 1:33:54Speaker 5: to be, which was defund in their minds. Reimagine higher insultants,
- 1:34:00Speaker 5: higher counselors for nine one calls and really just undermine
- 1:34:05Speaker 5: our law enforcement. And what has happened as a result
- 1:34:08Speaker 5: of that is we see longer times response times for
- 1:34:12Speaker 5: our officers to get to you when you need when
- 1:34:16Speaker 5: you need help. We've seen youth take over our downtown
- 1:34:21Speaker 5: right where officers we don't have enough officers, and then
- 1:34:23Speaker 5: those officers that are there are really being told not
- 1:34:27Speaker 5: to do proactive policing, don't ask questions. This mayor has
- 1:34:31Speaker 5: just discovered in the last two weeks law enforcement. Notice
- 1:34:35Speaker 5: that you're saying, man, now it's the police chief. She
- 1:34:38Speaker 5: has become the scapegoat for his failure. And this city
- 1:34:42Speaker 5: manager who is the CEO. So the reality of it
- 1:34:45Speaker 5: is is this has been a councilor Sighters really appreciate
- 1:34:49Speaker 5: you highlighting that. Council Member Gooden and I were trying
- 1:34:53Speaker 5: to get ahead of what you see now with attrition
- 1:34:56Speaker 5: with our officers.
- 1:34:57Speaker 1: And it's worse now than it was when you introduce
- 1:34:59Speaker 1: the MO to allocate the funds to hire police officers,
- 1:35:02Speaker 1: isn't it.
- 1:35:04Speaker 5: It is more than what's happening is we have because
- 1:35:07Speaker 5: our officers are in drop two hundred of them are
- 1:35:10Speaker 5: saying I want to retire. I know they can retire
- 1:35:13Speaker 5: right now to the community. We can go from nine
- 1:35:16Speaker 5: thirty to seven hundred and thirty overnight. They can all
- 1:35:21Speaker 5: walk away if they want to. And if we keep
- 1:35:24Speaker 5: harassing them and not allowing them to do their job
- 1:35:27Speaker 5: and not supporting them, You're going to see a high attrition.
- 1:35:29Speaker 5: You're going to see me if God puts me in
- 1:35:33Speaker 5: a position to be elected, you're going to see me.
- 1:35:37Speaker 5: Immediately focus on retention. How do we retain those two
- 1:35:41Speaker 5: hundred officers that are in drop because we need them
- 1:35:45Speaker 5: to help train the new officers that we're bringing in.
- 1:35:48Speaker 5: We don't want to just have a young police force.
- 1:35:52Speaker 5: They need those older trained officers to do those that
- 1:35:56Speaker 5: six months of training that's so important for our officers. Well,
- 1:36:00Speaker 5: this is a scary time community. I'm hoping that citizens
- 1:36:04Speaker 5: across the fifty two neighborhoods are really thinking and they're
- 1:36:07Speaker 5: voting right like their lives dependent upon it, because we're
- 1:36:11Speaker 5: seeing that it really does. Here's the good news, Brian Thomas,
- 1:36:14Speaker 5: you are really loved in this community. I knock on
- 1:36:18Speaker 5: doors and I'm not just like shiny light on you
- 1:36:21Speaker 5: in a way, just as say it. It's the truth.
- 1:36:24Speaker 5: You know, whether I'm in Oakley, which I was yesterday.
- 1:36:27Speaker 5: I had a woman and she's listening. She said, I
- 1:36:30Speaker 5: always listen to Brian Thomas. And she now has moved,
- 1:36:34Speaker 5: I believe, to Tennessee, but she was here visiting her
- 1:36:36Speaker 5: son in Oakley. She took my literature. She said, I
- 1:36:40Speaker 5: always listen to Brian Thomas. I'm going to take your
- 1:36:42Speaker 5: literature into the house. Tell my son that I want
- 1:36:46Speaker 5: him to vote for you. I'm telling you, I get
- 1:36:49Speaker 5: this kind of I was in Columbia, Tuscula. A couple
- 1:36:52Speaker 5: came out, Oh yeah, I listened to Brian Thomas all
- 1:36:56Speaker 5: the time. He makes sense, he has comments sense. It
- 1:36:59Speaker 5: doesn't matter where I go. And let me also tell
- 1:37:02Speaker 5: you one other thing, this notion that African Americans who
- 1:37:06Speaker 5: live in our city aren't listening to your show, because
- 1:37:09Speaker 5: they're saying the same thing. Right. So the reality of
- 1:37:13Speaker 5: it is we just have to do better with participation
- 1:37:16Speaker 5: because right now I've been told that only seven hundred
- 1:37:20Speaker 5: people have voted. If that's true, that that is a
- 1:37:24Speaker 5: dismal number. Community. We've got to do better. We can't
- 1:37:27Speaker 5: just talk our way out of this. Love is a verb,
- 1:37:31Speaker 5: and if we really want to change things down in
- 1:37:33Speaker 5: City Hall. We really want to change what's happening in
- 1:37:36Speaker 5: the Mayor's office. You've got to hear my voice, you
- 1:37:39Speaker 5: gotta hear Brian Thomas's voice, you gotta hear your family
- 1:37:42Speaker 5: and friends, and you got to get out and vote.
- 1:37:44Speaker 5: If you have somebody that's sick or shut in, somebody
- 1:37:47Speaker 5: that needs help getting to the ballot to go vote,
- 1:37:50Speaker 5: that you are obligated to make sure that those kinds
- 1:37:53Speaker 5: of things happen before the election on November fourth, are
- 1:37:57Speaker 5: on that day and the last thing that I know,
- 1:37:59Speaker 5: because we're going to break there are so many traditional voters,
- 1:38:03Speaker 5: voters who do not believe in thirty days. I heard
- 1:38:06Speaker 5: that on so many doors, whether it's Hyde Park or
- 1:38:09Speaker 5: Mount Lookout or Mount Washington, they're waiting to vote on
- 1:38:13Speaker 5: November fourth. If that happens, we're going to see a
- 1:38:17Speaker 5: major shift in what's happening here on Council. If the
- 1:38:22Speaker 5: voter turnout continues to be very low and then all
- 1:38:25Speaker 5: of a sudden on November fourth, you see all the
- 1:38:28Speaker 5: traditional voters come out and say, you know what, I'm
- 1:38:31Speaker 5: going to weigh in on this election. Because many of
- 1:38:33Speaker 5: them are registered from the election last year. There's not
- 1:38:37Speaker 5: an issue of registration. Brian Thomas, This is an issue
- 1:38:40Speaker 5: of participation, amen. And so you can't talk, You can't
- 1:38:45Speaker 5: show up at your neighborhood pub and say you're frustrated
- 1:38:49Speaker 5: with what's happening, and then you don't vote.
- 1:38:52Speaker 1: Christopher Smilman couldn't have stated it any better. That's typically
- 1:38:55Speaker 1: the case. Bring back just a minute, don't go away
- 1:38:57Speaker 1: for me. Kind of been eighty years and we're heating

- 1:41:03Speaker 1: I could give you a list of candidates i'd vote
- 1:41:05Speaker 1: for if I was in the city of Cincinnati, but
- 1:41:06Speaker 1: one thing is for certain, I would definitely vote if
- 1:41:09Speaker 1: given the opportunity. Christopher, and I don't want to interject,
- 1:41:12Speaker 1: but you've told me that you've knocked on doors where
- 1:41:14Speaker 1: people aren't even aware that there's an election next week.
- 1:41:18Speaker 5: That's true.
- 1:41:18Speaker 1: I just that is mind blowing. That really is just impossible.
- 1:41:24Speaker 1: That shows that that particular could be voter. Never ever,
- 1:41:30Speaker 1: doesn't even watch a local news show. I mean, you
- 1:41:32Speaker 1: couldn't watch Fox nineteen or something, and I know there's
- 1:41:35Speaker 1: an election coming up at some point, so not even
- 1:41:38Speaker 1: that amount of political input is in their life. So
- 1:41:40Speaker 1: that's a frightening reality.
- 1:41:43Speaker 5: Yeah it is. But the reality is that when I
- 1:41:46Speaker 5: knock on that door, and I talk to the voter.
- 1:41:50Speaker 5: That's why it's so important to do some of the
- 1:41:52Speaker 5: door to door work that we do, is it does
- 1:41:55Speaker 5: inform them. They say thank you to us, thank you
- 1:41:59Speaker 5: for coming by and reminding, and thank you for personally
- 1:42:02Speaker 5: being here. It almost shocks them when they open the
- 1:42:05Speaker 5: door and there's somebody standing on the other side and
- 1:42:08Speaker 5: they're saying, Hey, my name is Christopher Smitherman and I'm
- 1:42:11Speaker 5: I'm here knocking on your door asking you for your
- 1:42:14Speaker 5: vote and explain what my platform is, so that when
- 1:42:18Speaker 5: you go to the polls you vote, you're informed at
- 1:42:21Speaker 5: least about my candidacy. So the good news is it's
- 1:42:24Speaker 5: not like they're slamming the door going I'm not going
- 1:42:27Speaker 5: to vote. It's just that I don't know there's an election,
- 1:42:29Speaker 5: and some have you been said I don't know who
- 1:42:31Speaker 5: you are, which is which is a great hubbling experience
- 1:42:34Speaker 5: to pop my little bubble. Hey guy, who are you? Yeah,
- 1:42:38Speaker 5: how I'd love to hear your story. I view that
- 1:42:40Speaker 5: as a as a as a as an opportunity because
- 1:42:43Speaker 5: they're not approaching me with this preconceived notion of who
- 1:42:46Speaker 5: I am.
- 1:42:46Speaker 1: That's a good point.
- 1:42:47Speaker 5: I take that opportunity to share it, you know, and uh,
- 1:42:50Speaker 5: and then I keep it moving. But your show is
- 1:42:53Speaker 5: very popular across the city, and I just you know,
- 1:42:58Speaker 5: just the nice things they say about you in your
- 1:43:00Speaker 5: show and how they're informed about what is happening in
- 1:43:03Speaker 5: the news because they don't feel like our local paper,
- 1:43:06Speaker 5: the Inquirer, does a good job, and so they're searching
- 1:43:09Speaker 5: for places to get their local news. And you're one
- 1:43:12Speaker 5: of the places people are turning to. And it's not
- 1:43:15Speaker 5: just that they're turning to you because you're giving them news.
- 1:43:18Speaker 5: Here's what I want to say, is they trust you.
- 1:43:21Speaker 5: It's not that you're just giving them the news. Is
- 1:43:23Speaker 5: they're trusting what you're saying because there's so much distrust
- 1:43:27Speaker 5: out there about the news that they've been getting over
- 1:43:29Speaker 5: the last decade. And so it's very very interesting. People
- 1:43:33Speaker 5: are listening to you for local news. They're not going
- 1:43:37Speaker 5: to their Sunday paper anymore. They're saying, hey, man, let
- 1:43:41Speaker 5: me turn this radio station on at five or six
- 1:43:44Speaker 5: o'clock in the morning as I'm getting ready to figure
- 1:43:46Speaker 5: out what's going on in my city. And that is
- 1:43:49Speaker 5: not an exaggeration.
- 1:43:50Speaker 1: Well, I sure appreciate it, Christopher. I mean, I hear
- 1:43:52Speaker 1: that from you, and I hear it in almost absolute disbelief.
- 1:43:56Speaker 1: It's a pleasure knowing that you're talking to people who
- 1:43:58Speaker 1: listen to the program. Trust me, man, my only goal
- 1:44:02Speaker 1: is to search for and try to find truth amid
- 1:44:05Speaker 1: all of the what I would characterize as bs that's
- 1:44:08Speaker 1: floating around in the world. I want one's best for everybody.
- 1:44:10Speaker 1: I really truly do. And and I'll be critical of you,
- 1:44:14Speaker 1: know me, I'd be critical of you if you started
- 1:44:17Speaker 1: running a foul of my.
- 1:44:20Speaker 5: Past. You have been. We haven't always agreed, and that's
- 1:44:23Speaker 5: what's so healthy and we and we we are good friends.
- 1:44:27Speaker 5: But here's what I'll also share with you is that
- 1:44:29Speaker 5: people will say, you give them the facts, then they
- 1:44:33Speaker 5: can inform there they feel informed. Then you say, hey, okay,
- 1:44:36Speaker 5: here's my opinion about the fact. Path right. It's not
- 1:44:39Speaker 5: like you're like telling them just all your opinions. You're
- 1:44:42Speaker 5: like saying, here are the facts, here's my opinion about
- 1:44:45Speaker 5: the facts. What are yours? And I think that's the
- 1:44:48Speaker 5: difference that people are getting is just like that puff
- 1:44:50Speaker 5: piece that you're talking about that the mayor just wrote
- 1:44:53Speaker 5: right and put it in the paper. It's nothing but lies.
- 1:44:57Speaker 5: You're reading that and you're going there, this is nothing
- 1:45:00Speaker 5: but lies that the mayor has put in the paper
- 1:45:03Speaker 5: as a puff piece trying to convince. But guess what,
- 1:45:06Speaker 5: because the news journalism they're either lazy because they're not
- 1:45:10Speaker 5: challenging what he's written, or they are literally colluding with
- 1:45:15Speaker 5: his campaign to try to undermine the person he's running against,
- 1:45:19Speaker 5: Corey Bowman. But it's bad either way. That's why you're
- 1:45:22Speaker 5: reading that, so we can listen to the hypocrisy.
- 1:45:24Speaker 1: And all the line. Yeah, I you know, if someone
- 1:45:27Speaker 1: had a lot to show for their administration, this article
- 1:45:30Speaker 1: or this op ed piece from Maria after that parvol
- 1:45:32Speaker 1: would have sounded a hell of a lot different. I mean,
- 1:45:35Speaker 1: he could have just listed one after another all of
- 1:45:38Speaker 1: his major accomplishments that have happened over the last four years.
- 1:45:41Speaker 1: And all I see is, you know, we've you know,
- 1:45:43Speaker 1: we rebuilt trust. Did you mean what does that mean?
- 1:45:49Speaker 1: Our goal is forty thousand in the units over the
- 1:45:51Speaker 1: next ten years. Well wait a second, you haven't built
- 1:45:53Speaker 1: any because he did you say, we've already built this
- 1:45:55Speaker 1: many units? Our goal we just he just set that
- 1:45:59Speaker 1: goal most recently. So I mean again, it's just this.
- 1:46:04Speaker 1: It's almost like a dodge or a dodge dib duck,
- 1:46:07Speaker 1: dive and dodge kind of five to use a dodgeball
- 1:46:09Speaker 1: kind of thing. It sounds like he's actually done something,
- 1:46:12Speaker 1: but it's just a fluffy statement we delivered laying the
- 1:46:16Speaker 1: foundations for a city built for the people who make
- 1:46:19Speaker 1: it great. What does that mean? What specifically did he
- 1:46:23Speaker 1: do that makes the city great for the people who
- 1:46:25Speaker 1: live there. I'm sort of it. I'm waiting for it,
- 1:46:29Speaker 1: looking for it. I still can't find it, even after
- 1:46:31Speaker 1: reading his own words. Will bring Christopher back one more
- 1:46:34Speaker 1: with hopefully soon to be again counsel in Christopher Smith.

- 1:49:08Speaker 1: nay Independent Christopher Smitheman is among the well any council
- 1:49:12Speaker 1: members you select and remember when voting, only vote for
- 1:49:15Speaker 1: the top maybe three, for maybe five. You don't vote
- 1:49:19Speaker 1: for all nine. That way your vote doesn't get watered down.
- 1:49:22Speaker 1: Rite Christopher Smitheman, that.
- 1:49:24Speaker 5: Is absolutely right. I want to really before I get off,
- 1:49:29Speaker 5: just talk about again the termination of police chief Sigi
- 1:49:36Speaker 5: was very It was done in a very disfunctional way.
- 1:49:41Speaker 5: And to have this is a detail last Wednesday when
- 1:49:45Speaker 5: all members of council came together after the termination. This
- 1:49:50Speaker 5: was on Wednesday, not one member of council set a thing,
- 1:49:55Speaker 5: not a thing, community, how is your police she fired
- 1:50:00Speaker 5: in this kind of way? And you don't ask one question. Nobody.
- 1:50:05Speaker 5: It's as silent on the issue as if it's not happening.
- 1:50:09Speaker 5: This is like Procter and Gambles CEO is terminated and
- 1:50:13Speaker 5: the border directors get together and nobody talks about it. Well,
- 1:50:16Speaker 5: if it's a private company, it's behind closed doors. But
- 1:50:19Speaker 5: this is a public body, and so the public body, right,
- 1:50:23Speaker 5: there's a demand for them to speak to the issue
- 1:50:28Speaker 5: of one of your top directors. Anybody in any city
- 1:50:31Speaker 5: would say, who are your top directors? Police and fire.
- 1:50:35Speaker 5: You just terminated your police chief in the most grotesque way,
- 1:50:40Speaker 5: and not one member of council had a question for anything.
- 1:50:43Speaker 5: Speak to it, what's happening. Reassure us about what's going on, Briant.
- 1:50:48Speaker 5: This is what is so dysfunctional about having all nine
- 1:50:52Speaker 5: Democrats a Democratic mayor, because you're getting this group think
- 1:50:57Speaker 5: and this mayor is hurting them. When I say heard,
- 1:51:01Speaker 5: I'm saying in a figurative way, he's basically saying, Hey,
- 1:51:05Speaker 5: don't say anything about this before the election. We're going
- 1:51:09Speaker 5: to deal with this after the election. We're going to
- 1:51:11Speaker 5: pay her a lot of money after the election because
- 1:51:14Speaker 5: that's what's going to often ultimately happen. But no reassuring
- 1:51:18Speaker 5: that they are providing the oversight, that that's why we
- 1:51:21Speaker 5: elected them to be there.
- 1:51:23Speaker 1: Well, you're I think you're right in anticipating a check
- 1:51:25Speaker 1: will ultimately be written to Police Chief Fiji forget her wrongful.
- 1:51:29Speaker 1: You know, administrative lead placement are ultimately firing. We don't
- 1:51:32Speaker 1: know which strection it's going to go, but this is
- 1:51:35Speaker 1: Act number two they did this to the police chief
- 1:51:37Speaker 1: or fire chief Washington. They set themselves up wrongful termination.
- 1:51:42Speaker 1: Was that not under our current administration's watch, Christopher?
- 1:51:47Speaker 5: Yes?
- 1:51:47Speaker 1: Yeah, how about that.
- 1:51:48Speaker 5: That's the same city managers terminating now the fire chief
- 1:51:52Speaker 5: and the police chief. And you're telling here's the other
- 1:51:55Speaker 5: thing members of council could have done this week. Two
- 1:51:57Speaker 5: members of council could motion to call a special session
- 1:52:02Speaker 5: of council immediately convenience. It only takes two, you're telling me,
- 1:52:08Speaker 5: out of nine members of council. Community with the firing
- 1:52:11Speaker 5: up your police chief, there are two members of council
- 1:52:15Speaker 5: that are willing to call a special session to bring
- 1:52:18Speaker 5: the city manager in and say what is going on?
- 1:52:22Speaker 5: Make it make sense? Explain it to us, Christmas. Not one?
- 1:52:27Speaker 5: I mean, we don't have two.
- 1:52:28Speaker 1: Well, we all know how it's set up. Remember Issue
- 1:52:31Speaker 1: five that gave the power of hiring and firing to
- 1:52:33Speaker 1: the city manager and the mayor exclusively. They are exclusively responsible.
- 1:52:37Speaker 1: In other words, they're the two people to home treatment.
- 1:52:40Speaker 1: Any police chief or any fire chief reports to. They
- 1:52:43Speaker 1: are their respective bosses. Correct, Okay, they take the reactive
- 1:52:47Speaker 1: from their bosses, just like we all do out here
- 1:52:49Speaker 1: in the real world, we do what our bosses tell
- 1:52:51Speaker 1: us to, even if we think it's stupid. This is
- 1:52:53Speaker 1: a rethink, reimagine defund the police administration. Gee, I can
- 1:52:57Speaker 1: only imagine what direct is purvoll and long game to
- 1:53:00Speaker 1: police Chief Diji in the doing of her business or
- 1:53:03Speaker 1: her job, and ultimately, within a couple of weeks of
- 1:53:06Speaker 1: him standing arm in arm in him praising her and
- 1:53:08Speaker 1: how great a job that she's been doing for the city,
- 1:53:11Speaker 1: ends up placing her an administratively because well, things are bad.
- 1:53:15Speaker 1: But he just woke up to three out. He's been
- 1:53:17Speaker 1: telling us for the last three years how crime is
- 1:53:19Speaker 1: not a problem, only to wake up right in advance
- 1:53:22Speaker 1: of the election to realize maybe the people think crime
- 1:53:24Speaker 1: is a problem. Maybe crime actually is a problem. I
- 1:53:26Speaker 1: gotta find somebody to blame. It must be the police chief.
- 1:53:29Speaker 1: She's running the system wrong, huh okay? And who's directive
- 1:53:34Speaker 1: was she operating under? Whose instructions was she following? It's like,
- 1:53:38Speaker 1: look in the mirror. I have to have the reason
- 1:53:39Speaker 1: you're firing her is because she was doing what you
- 1:53:41Speaker 1: were telling her to do.
- 1:53:42Speaker 5: Right there lies a million dollar check they're going to
- 1:53:46Speaker 5: have to write her, right and so then you you
- 1:53:48Speaker 5: insult us by saying you're now going to hire an
- 1:53:51Speaker 5: outside consultant to bury her. Right, she has nothing in
- 1:53:55Speaker 5: her record community for thirty five years, nothing in her file.
- 1:53:59Speaker 5: Think about your self, any but professional out there who's working,
- 1:54:03Speaker 5: there's nothing in your file. You've given the institution thirty
- 1:54:06Speaker 5: five years, and now they're going to hire some outside
- 1:54:09Speaker 5: person to come in and evaluate her job after I've wired.
- 1:54:14Speaker 1: Her hindsights twenty twenty, isn't it, Christopher? Oh, look, we
- 1:54:19Speaker 1: found a skeleton from twenty five years ago. She should
- 1:54:23Speaker 1: have done something, but she did something differently, and so
- 1:54:26Speaker 1: in spite of the fact that didn't make it into her
- 1:54:28Speaker 1: permanent record and she was a reprimanded otherwise held accountable
- 1:54:30Speaker 1: for what she did back then, we're gonna do it now.
- 1:54:33Speaker 1: That's that's a setup for disaster, right there, a setup
- 1:54:36Speaker 1: for it.
- 1:54:37Speaker 5: And West Side voters are fired up, buddy, I can
- 1:54:41Speaker 5: tell you that. Now. I don't know if that translates
- 1:54:43Speaker 5: to them coming out and participating in the political process
- 1:54:47Speaker 5: and voting, but I can tell you that places like
- 1:54:50Speaker 5: Saddamsville and Price Hill, and places like Western Hills, which
- 1:54:54Speaker 5: is where she went to High School in Westwood. Look, buddy,
- 1:54:57Speaker 5: they are fired up and they're watching it. We just
- 1:55:00Speaker 5: don't know if it's going to translate to that registered
- 1:55:03Speaker 5: voter actually taking the action and taking five to ten
- 1:55:07Speaker 5: minutes out of their schedule and coming in voting on
- 1:55:09Speaker 5: November the fourth. We don't know, but I can tell
- 1:55:11Speaker 5: you they are very, very concerned about this council. The
- 1:55:15Speaker 5: other news that I can share with you with I
- 1:55:18Speaker 5: heard this all over Columbia, Tuscoom. I heard it in
- 1:55:22Speaker 5: a mount lookout or high park. I'm just gonna make
- 1:55:24Speaker 5: sure bond Hill or Roselan, I'm a Democrat, listen. I'm
- 1:55:29Speaker 5: not voting for any of them on council. The Democratic
- 1:55:32Speaker 5: Party has left me. I don't even know this party.
- 1:55:36Speaker 5: I can't tell you how frequently I heard that from
- 1:55:42Speaker 5: people in Cincinnati. So some people are saying I'm not
- 1:55:45Speaker 5: showing up, which I encourage them to make sure they
- 1:55:48Speaker 5: do show up, you know, whatever's going on, you know,
- 1:55:51Speaker 5: we need you to show up however you're going to vote, participate.
- 1:55:54Speaker 5: But they are telling me they're very concerned collectively about
- 1:56:00Speaker 5: this administration, this Democratic administration and Democratic Council. And they're
- 1:56:04Speaker 5: saying it is the worst they have ever seen. Now
- 1:56:08Speaker 5: I can tell till the community. I am not exaggerating
- 1:56:11Speaker 5: when I tell you we've been working hard. We've been
- 1:56:13Speaker 5: knocking on a lot of doors, and we're talking to
- 1:56:16Speaker 5: people who are very wealthy, people who are middle class,
- 1:56:19Speaker 5: working every day, people who don't have a lot of resources.
- 1:56:23Speaker 5: And the message is could have the silent majority of
- 1:56:26Speaker 5: a drum beat that they are very concerned about the
- 1:56:29Speaker 5: direction of this city. And I think that those voters
- 1:56:31Speaker 5: that are coming out are going to come out and
- 1:56:34Speaker 5: send a message everybody isn't going to return on this council.
- 1:56:38Speaker 5: I really believe that, and I think if more voters
- 1:56:40Speaker 5: come out, we could have a major upset in the
- 1:56:43Speaker 5: mayor's office. Harder to do, but we could have it
- 1:56:46Speaker 5: because people are fed up with like like this ouphed
- 1:56:50Speaker 5: that you're that you're reading, which is so disconnected from
- 1:56:54Speaker 5: the reality of the voter. They don't get it, they
- 1:56:56Speaker 5: don't understand.
- 1:56:57Speaker 1: Sounds like you have a note of optimism in your
- 1:56:58Speaker 1: voice on turnout, Christopher, I can only pray that you
- 1:57:01Speaker 1: are right in that regard, and again, one final effort
- 1:57:04Speaker 1: to get the listeners go out and vote, and for
- 1:57:06Speaker 1: those outside listen real quick here Christomer Corey Bowman had
- 1:57:10Speaker 1: the biggest fundraiser so far of his campaign. That event
- 1:57:14Speaker 1: I spoke about in Wyoming. Wyoming isn't even part of
- 1:57:18Speaker 1: the city of Cincinnati, but their lives are so impacted
- 1:57:20Speaker 1: by what happens in the city. And one of the
- 1:57:22Speaker 1: messages to the group was, listen, if you don't live
- 1:57:25Speaker 1: in the city, and you don't, you're here in Wyoming.
- 1:57:27Speaker 1: You have businesses there, and the people raise their hand. Yes,
- 1:57:29Speaker 1: you have friends that live in the city. People raise
- 1:57:31Speaker 1: their hands and said, yes. Everybody knows somebody that's in
- 1:57:35Speaker 1: the city of Cincinnati and lives there. Call them up
- 1:57:37Speaker 1: and encourage them to vote. It's the only thing you
- 1:57:39Speaker 1: can do with outside You don't have an ability to
- 1:57:42Speaker 1: really sway anything other than write a check. And we're
- 1:57:44Speaker 1: fast approaching the election, so maybe those efforts are really
- 1:57:48Speaker 1: kind of gone by the wayside. But you can still
- 1:57:50Speaker 1: make a phone call and express a few words of
- 1:57:52Speaker 1: encouragement and hope for a change in the direction of
- 1:57:56Speaker 1: the city of Cincinnati. It'd be good for everyone in
- 1:57:59Speaker 1: the try, including my friends out in Warren County and
- 1:58:02Speaker 1: Claremont County and Boone County. And Northern Kentucky. We're all
- 1:58:05Speaker 1: impact of what these guys on on council do. Christophers
- 1:58:09Speaker 1: there are we are.
- 1:58:10Speaker 5: Hey, Brian, let me just say this to you. I
- 1:58:11Speaker 5: was invited this past week to go to OTR in Mohawk.
- 1:58:18Speaker 5: Those two communities came together and had a meet and greet. Okay,
- 1:58:22Speaker 5: they are very impacted by crime, just like you said.
- 1:58:26Speaker 5: They're investing heavily in property there business that are businesses
- 1:58:31Speaker 5: that are located there. And they're all telling me listen
- 1:58:34Speaker 5: to me. I mean, one guy held up his phone
- 1:58:36Speaker 5: and used some profanity and I won't disclose that. But
- 1:58:39Speaker 5: they're so angry that they feel like this council, in
- 1:58:42Speaker 5: this mayor they completely abandoned them after they've invested so
- 1:58:46Speaker 5: much money in the OTR and in Mohawk, and they
- 1:58:49Speaker 5: feel like they've just been completely abandoned. And so I'm
- 1:58:52Speaker 5: sharing with you them inviting me into their home. And
- 1:58:55Speaker 5: this was a large swath of people who lived, business owners,
- 1:59:00Speaker 5: people that live in those neighborhoods. Boy, they are really
- 1:59:03Speaker 5: hot and they are not casting votes for collectively for this,
- 1:59:07Speaker 5: for this, for this particular council. Thank you for allowing
- 1:59:10Speaker 5: me to have a voice here, Brian Thomas, you're the

- 2:03:55Speaker 7: While, you know, and it tends to be against the Jetsy.
- 2:03:57Speaker 7: I was diagnosed with atrial fibrillation. I think it was
- 2:04:00Speaker 7: two thousand and nine, and it happened right after they
- 2:04:03Speaker 7: lost to the Jets in the playoffs. So I have
- 2:04:05Speaker 7: a lot of bad associations with the Bengals and the Jets,
- 2:04:09Speaker 7: even putting my health at risk. Fair enough, I'm blaming
- 2:04:13Speaker 7: them for that. Wow something game. I think you are
- 2:04:16Speaker 7: too connected to the game if your health is impacted
- 2:04:19Speaker 7: by it, Brian James got to start taking care of yourself.
- 2:04:22Speaker 7: Ignore sports. Don't let it bother you to ignore this. Yeah,
- 2:04:26Speaker 7: that's right.
- 2:04:26Speaker 1: You got to live in Cleveland, where the state of
- 2:04:28Speaker 1: hoo taxpayers will give you an extra six hundred million
- 2:04:30Speaker 1: dollars to enjoy a football game. Anyway, that's not why
- 2:04:33Speaker 1: we're talking today. We're talking today mostly about the shutdown,
- 2:04:36Speaker 1: and there's like nine ga jillion articles out in the
- 2:04:39Speaker 1: world flowing around about what's impacted, what's not. What we
- 2:04:41Speaker 1: do know is hit over the weekend. Staffing issues prompted
- 2:04:46Speaker 1: some shutdowns at airports hours worth not you know, like
- 2:04:49Speaker 1: day's worth. But it's not that they've been fired. The
- 2:04:52Speaker 1: Federal Aviation Administration workers, air traffic workers. I guess we'd
- 2:04:56Speaker 1: like to have a paycheck, and when they're not getting one,
- 2:04:58Speaker 1: they call in sick.
- 2:05:00Speaker 7: Yeah, that is what happens.
- 2:05:02Speaker 8: You know.
- 2:05:03Speaker 7: It's amazing that when the illness tends to spread around
- 2:05:06Speaker 7: the office, when when the employer has decided not to
- 2:05:08Speaker 7: pay you for a while and kind of expects that
- 2:05:10Speaker 7: to just be a patriotic thing that you take on.
- 2:05:13Speaker 7: But that's kind of where we are. At the moment.
- 2:05:14Speaker 7: There's a little bit of history in this. Of course,
- 2:05:16Speaker 7: this happened in the early eighties under the Reagan administration,
- 2:05:19Speaker 7: where the air traffic controllers went on strike and we're
- 2:05:21Speaker 7: effectively told it was illegal and forced to come back
- 2:05:24Speaker 7: to work. And so we do have that. It's not
- 2:05:27Speaker 7: that there's nobody working at all. There's about thirteen thousand
- 2:05:29Speaker 7: air traffic controllers that are still coming and doing the job,
- 2:05:32Speaker 7: but they're not being paid during this and the FAA
- 2:05:35Speaker 7: is already short about thirty five hundred and four thousand
- 2:05:38Speaker 7: controllers before this shutdown. So, of course, yes, as you mentioned,
- 2:05:41Speaker 7: we're seeing sick calls, staffing shortages. The union has warned
- 2:05:45Speaker 7: that these conditions are introducing safety and operational risks. This
- 2:05:49Speaker 7: is all fairly predictable, you know kind of responses here.
- 2:05:52Speaker 7: And it's not that they got nothing. There was about
- 2:05:55Speaker 7: a ninety percent paycheck earlier in October, but as at
- 2:05:57Speaker 7: the end of October, they'll they'll face a zero paycheck
- 2:06:00Speaker 7: during the shutdown. At this drags on.
- 2:06:03Speaker 1: Okay, if it news right, how great, it's great news. Well,
- 2:06:08Speaker 1: looking at some of the other things air traffics one
- 2:06:10Speaker 1: thing their critical employees they're paychecks building up in the background.
- 2:06:13Speaker 1: They'll ultimately get it all back, as is the case
- 2:06:15Speaker 1: with most But what about people out in the real world.
- 2:06:19Speaker 1: I see the USDA is telling people that SNAP benefits
- 2:06:21Speaker 1: are going to expire. Forty one million people get SNAP benefits,
- 2:06:26Speaker 1: and I guess that deadline or cut off is fast approaching.
- 2:06:32Speaker 1: So are they going to get in front of this?
- 2:06:34Speaker 1: Is this actually happening for Snap benefits? Well, so the USDA,
- 2:06:38Speaker 1: that's the Apartment of Agriculture. They've warned that Snap's got
- 2:06:41Speaker 1: funding through October twenty five, just through this month, but
- 2:06:44Speaker 1: if the shutdown drags on, then the money will not
- 2:06:46Speaker 1: be there to pay full benefits in November, and that's
- 2:06:49Speaker 1: going to affect about forty two million people. There are
- 2:06:51Speaker 1: some states out there, notably Pennsylvania and Texas, that have
- 2:06:54Speaker 1: started kind of calling everybody's attention that, hey, this November
- 2:06:57Speaker 1: may not be guaranteed.
- 2:06:59Speaker 7: If you're truly lying on this, you may may want
- 2:07:01Speaker 7: to start coming up with plan B. But Brian, I
- 2:07:03Speaker 7: got to be honest, if a lot of these folks
- 2:07:05Speaker 7: had a Plan B, they're probably not not on Snap.
- 2:07:06Speaker 1: To begin with.
- 2:07:07Speaker 7: But who knows for those of me not know. SNAP
- 2:07:10Speaker 7: is a fully federally funded program. That's where the benefits
- 2:07:13Speaker 7: themselves come from. It's a little bit like Medicaid, where
- 2:07:16Speaker 7: the money comes from the federal government, but it's administered
- 2:07:19Speaker 7: by the individual states. So that means the timing and
- 2:07:22Speaker 7: the ability to distribute those benefits depend heavily on the
- 2:07:25Speaker 7: states receiving the funds and then being able to deliver
- 2:07:27Speaker 7: them themselves.
- 2:07:29Speaker 1: All right, well, what about military pay? I know Trump
- 2:07:32Speaker 1: kind of finagled eight billion dollars away from other areas
- 2:07:34Speaker 1: of government in order to keep the military folks paid. Obviously,
- 2:07:38Speaker 1: they rejected the concept and failing to pass the bill
- 2:07:41Speaker 1: that would have kept military paid, among other folks who
- 2:07:44Speaker 1: are critical to our nation, decided not to go down
- 2:07:47Speaker 1: that road. Fifty or fifty four to forty five against
- 2:07:50Speaker 1: the Republican bill by Johnson and Wisconsin. Active duty members
- 2:07:54Speaker 1: would have been paid. I thought that might have gone through,
- 2:07:56Speaker 1: but Democrats want to keep all the hostage taking in play.
- 2:08:00Speaker 1: But at some point America's military are going to be
- 2:08:03Speaker 1: paid in this one hundred and thirty million dollar donation,
- 2:08:06Speaker 1: and say what you will about it, whether or not
- 2:08:08Speaker 1: it's lawful. Does this person have some you know, issues
- 2:08:11Speaker 1: he wants to be dealt with politically, and by giving
- 2:08:13Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty million dollars to help pay the military,
- 2:08:15Speaker 1: is he trying to buy favors or not. I don't
- 2:08:18Speaker 1: even want to address that. I just want to point
- 2:08:19Speaker 1: out to the fact that one hundred and thirty million
- 2:08:21Speaker 1: dollar gift, while admirable and something that you and I
- 2:08:24Speaker 1: probably couldn't do, that ain't gonna last very long.
- 2:08:27Speaker 7: Yeah, that sounds like a lot of money until you
- 2:08:29Speaker 7: realize that the military payroll is about six and a
- 2:08:32Speaker 7: half to seven and a half billion dollars every two weeks.
- 2:08:34Speaker 7: That's how much goes out in paychecks during the shutdown,
- 2:08:37Speaker 7: so that one hundred and thirty million dollars looks like
- 2:08:39Speaker 7: an eye popping number, but it's really not. It's not
- 2:08:41Speaker 7: going to move the needle very much. It's more of
- 2:08:43Speaker 7: a political headline. So there is There was a govern
- 2:08:46Speaker 7: a bill introduced, the Pay Our Troops Act of twenty
- 2:08:49Speaker 7: twenty five that that is supposed to guarantee pays basically
- 2:08:52Speaker 7: intended to remove military pay from the kinds of things
- 2:08:55Speaker 7: that can be that go away during these shutdowns, but
- 2:08:57Speaker 7: that has not been enacted yet. And so it's not
- 2:08:59Speaker 7: going to help us during this particular time. So the
- 2:09:03Speaker 7: Department of Defense, though, has stated that service members are
- 2:09:05Speaker 7: going to receive back pay once the funding comes back.
- 2:09:07Speaker 7: In those are words. You know, we'll see how the
- 2:09:10Speaker 7: timing and the certainty of all this remains. But at
- 2:09:12Speaker 7: least the words were said that back pay will be coming.
- 2:09:15Speaker 7: But you know, to be honest, Brian, I've heard the
- 2:09:16Speaker 7: opposite about other parts of government as well. And yeah,
- 2:09:20Speaker 7: we'll see what actually comes to play, won't we Yes,
- 2:09:22Speaker 7: we will.
- 2:09:23Speaker 1: And the apparently that the what are they calling him vote,
- 2:09:28Speaker 1: the guy that was going to fire little everybody do
- 2:09:30Speaker 1: the work that Doge was supposed to do. Apparently that's
- 2:09:32Speaker 1: not happening either. I went into a couple of wrinkles.
- 2:09:35Speaker 1: They tried to fire people and then found out, well,
- 2:09:37Speaker 1: we can't fire.
- 2:09:37Speaker 7: Them, right, And then we've mysteriously top talking about Doze
- 2:09:41Speaker 7: at all, because it turns out the US federal government
- 2:09:44Speaker 7: is a little more complicated than just eliminating stuff wholesale.
- 2:09:47Speaker 7: Let Who saw that coming, Brian? Why didn't they tell
- 2:09:50Speaker 7: us just Yeah.
- 2:09:52Speaker 1: It's like the peace of God. That one's another one
- 2:09:54Speaker 1: that it just passes all human understanding for me out
- 2:09:56Speaker 1: in the private sector, our jobs are not secure. We're
- 2:09:58Speaker 1: usually considered employment and subject to the whim of whoever
- 2:10:01Speaker 1: is our boss or manager. Anyhow, what about my VA
- 2:10:05Speaker 1: fends out there? I understanding is VA benefits are going
- 2:10:07Speaker 1: to continue. And since I have this, since ANYVA coming
- 2:10:10Speaker 1: up at the end of this hour, I'd like to
- 2:10:12Speaker 1: know whether or not that's got some truth to it. Well, yeah,
- 2:10:15Speaker 1: so the VA of.
- 2:10:16Speaker 7: Course is tied to this as well. And so this
- 2:10:19Speaker 7: is just give everyby a little bit background. So VA benefits,
- 2:10:21Speaker 7: the core benefit payments, disability compensation, pension, education benefits, like
- 2:10:26Speaker 7: the post nine to eleven GI bill, that kind of stuff.
- 2:10:28Speaker 7: Those are considered mandatory spending and those are expected to
- 2:10:31Speaker 7: continue uninterrupted during the shutdown. Now, remember nothing is guaranteed anymore.
- 2:10:37Speaker 7: A lot of times we just read words on paper
- 2:10:38Speaker 7: and assume that that's the case. So healthcare services through
- 2:10:42Speaker 7: the VA knocking on wood furiously here, medical centers, outpatient clents,
- 2:10:45Speaker 7: and VET centers remain open and operating. What is truly
- 2:10:49Speaker 7: being affected and suspended. The VA Outreach program has been
- 2:10:54Speaker 7: suspended already. Career counseling under the Veteran Readiness and employment
- 2:10:58Speaker 7: program that's been paused for new enrollment and delayed for
- 2:11:01Speaker 7: current participants. And then there are some regional VA benefit
- 2:11:04Speaker 7: offices closing down certain hotlines such as the g I
- 2:11:07Speaker 7: bill hotline closed down now uh cemeteries, while burials are continuing, Uh,
- 2:11:12Speaker 7: there are there are some other things being delayed such
- 2:11:14Speaker 7: as headstone placements, grounds maintenance, and some pre burial application
- 2:11:18Speaker 7: type things. So definitely starting to affect the VA as well,
- 2:11:21Speaker 7: but it hasn't hit those knock on wood core services yet.
- 2:11:24Speaker 1: That's good retirees, veterans that are receiving some sort of
- 2:11:29Speaker 1: uh retirement benefit from from the federal government, their their
- 2:11:34Speaker 1: their pay is going to continue as well.
- 2:11:36Speaker 7: Correct, That's yeah, at the moment that that again, that's
- 2:11:38Speaker 7: that's part of those core types of services that that
- 2:11:41Speaker 7: that involves. If that happens, then obviously we're gonna have
- 2:11:45Speaker 7: a massive hue and cry. It's one thing not to
- 2:11:47Speaker 7: pay the you know, the the currently military people serving
- 2:11:50Speaker 7: the military. It's another entirely to take the ones who
- 2:11:53Speaker 7: have taken their shots literally speaking and are not getting paid.
- 2:11:56Speaker 7: So that hasn't come up yet, uh that those are
- 2:11:58Speaker 7: classified as mandatory spending. So I think it would be
- 2:12:01Speaker 7: a ways down the road that we would start worry
- 2:12:04Speaker 7: about retiree pension for military folks.
- 2:12:06Speaker 1: And I saw the announce a cost of living increase
- 2:12:08Speaker 1: for folks out there on Social Security. What two and
- 2:12:10Speaker 1: a half percent increase for cost of living that went through,
- 2:12:13Speaker 1: and the Social Security checks are going to continue to
- 2:12:16Speaker 1: go through as well, right, Brian? That is sure.
- 2:12:18Speaker 7: We did have to recall some of those furloughed employees
- 2:12:20Speaker 7: to do the mask the number of crunchs exactly. Yeah,
- 2:12:23Speaker 7: sure's out, we need those after all. Okay, bring us
- 2:12:25Speaker 7: folks back in because we got we turned out they
- 2:12:28Speaker 7: actually do do something. So yeah, they came in and
- 2:12:30Speaker 7: reworked those numbers, and yeah we'll be The number itself
- 2:12:33Speaker 7: isn't too shocking. We'll get a couple percentage points, no
- 2:12:36Speaker 7: big deal, that's not too surprising. Inflation has been relatively tame.
- 2:12:39Speaker 7: Remember when we talk about inflation in this manner, we're
- 2:12:42Speaker 7: talking year over year, not how expensive stuff was six
- 2:12:45Speaker 7: years ago versus now, So year over year inflation hasn't
- 2:12:48Speaker 7: been all that bad. Therefore it's not filtering through to
- 2:12:50Speaker 7: a huge soci security increase.
- 2:12:52Speaker 1: It's about a point higher though than they really hopeful, right,
- 2:12:54Speaker 1: it's been hanging around at three percent when they're really
- 2:12:56Speaker 1: ideally looking for two.
- 2:12:58Speaker 7: Yeah, and that two percent number that filters through to
- 2:13:00Speaker 7: a lot of different things that the federal government would like.
- 2:13:03Speaker 7: Two percent seems to be the well accepted kind of
- 2:13:06Speaker 7: happy medium of we got to have some inflation, otherwise
- 2:13:08Speaker 7: the world doesn't grow. But at the same time, if
- 2:13:10Speaker 7: we have too much, that's not good. So the happy
- 2:13:13Speaker 7: place is about two percent. We are currently somewhere two
- 2:13:15Speaker 7: and a half three percent.
- 2:13:17Speaker 1: All right, Well, I don't know what they're waiting for.
- 2:13:21Speaker 1: I keep going back to the idea that the Republicans
- 2:13:23Speaker 1: didn't cut in passing the continuing Resolution. They left everything
- 2:13:28Speaker 1: in place at full Biden era spending levels, and that
- 2:13:30Speaker 1: was order to avoid the argument that it's the Republicans
- 2:13:33Speaker 1: and their evil cuts who are causing this shutdown. We
- 2:13:36Speaker 1: Democrats can't abide that. What they're arguing over is the
- 2:13:40Speaker 1: extension of the premium subsidies under Obamacare, which are and
- 2:13:44Speaker 1: in the law that they rode and they passed into law,
- 2:13:47Speaker 1: set to expire at the end of this year. I
- 2:13:49Speaker 1: really truly believe, and I don't think it's a big
- 2:13:51Speaker 1: jump to go to this conclusion that they expected that
- 2:13:54Speaker 1: the Democrats would still be in power, that Donald Trump
- 2:13:57Speaker 1: would not get elected, and they would extend those supplements
- 2:14:01Speaker 1: indefinitely to make Obamacare appear as if it's working when
- 2:14:03Speaker 1: and ultimately the American taxpayers shouldering the burden of the
- 2:14:06Speaker 1: premiums that are ultimately still going out to the health
- 2:14:09Speaker 1: insurance or the medical providers out there.
- 2:14:12Speaker 7: Yeah, and for the past several decades, that's how we've
- 2:14:15Speaker 7: gotten things to pass. Everything has to have a sunset
- 2:14:17Speaker 7: on it. There were the second President Bush put some
- 2:14:21Speaker 7: tax cuts in place that expired, and that that's when
- 2:14:23Speaker 7: we first started talking about the sunset provision. Fancy word
- 2:14:26Speaker 7: to say this is going away at a certain date.
- 2:14:28Speaker 7: So that's the only way we can get stuff pushed
- 2:14:30Speaker 7: across the finish line anymore. And I think you're right.
- 2:14:32Speaker 7: The gamble is always by the party in power that
- 2:14:34Speaker 7: gets it done, that they'll be in power to be
- 2:14:36Speaker 7: able to push that through. That happened for President Trump
- 2:14:39Speaker 7: because one of the features of the OBBB was to
- 2:14:43Speaker 7: lock in the twenty seventeen tax cuts, So that was
- 2:14:45Speaker 7: a little bit of a gamble. He basically threw himself
- 2:14:47Speaker 7: a hail Mary from one administration, a second over the
- 2:14:50Speaker 7: Biden administration and to himself in the third administration, and
- 2:14:54Speaker 7: so we're simply seeing the same thing. But it didn't
- 2:14:56Speaker 7: work out for Democrats the way they'd hoped.
- 2:14:58Speaker 1: Fair enough one more with Brian James, talk about gasoline.
- 2:15:01Speaker 1: I think in a positive light. I know I had
- 2:15:03Speaker 1: a good, positive gasoline full tank experience just the other day.
- 2:15:07Speaker 1: Will it stay at a reasonable price? More with Brian
- 2:15:10Speaker 1: James after I mentioned again Galaxy concrete coatings, and thank
- 2:15:14Speaker 1: you Mike who point him out. Because of the torrential
- 2:15:17Speaker 1: rain we're supposed to get on Wednesday, maybe my daughter
- 2:15:19Speaker 1: and our fiance's project won't get done, but it's gonna
- 2:15:22Speaker 1: get done. Getting that amazing Galaxy concrete coating surface applied
- 2:15:26Speaker 1: to their right now doesn't look very good patio if
- 2:15:29Speaker 1: you got it, doesn't look very good. Concrete service. You
- 2:15:32Speaker 1: want to change the diet of the way it looks.
- 2:15:34Speaker 1: You want to make it pop. You want to make
- 2:15:35Speaker 1: people go, wow, gorgeous. That's why you want Galaxy concrete coatings.
- 2:15:39Speaker 1: Whether it's your garage floor, your driveway, a patio, a
- 2:15:43Speaker 1: pool deck, something like that. There's also commercial applications galore.
- 2:15:48Speaker 1: The products come in one hundred and forty plus different colors,
- 2:15:51Speaker 1: multiple different surfaces to choose from life time guarantee. I
- 2:15:56Speaker 1: think that's the coolest thing about it because it's going
- 2:15:58Speaker 1: to look that great forever. That's the guarantee from Galaxy
- 2:16:02Speaker 1: Concrete Codings. These folks have been out for more than
- 2:16:03Speaker 1: twenty years. The surfaces dry really quickly. You can use
- 2:16:06Speaker 1: them fairly soon after the application. But then again, I
- 2:16:10Speaker 1: don't know if they can apply it in the middle
- 2:16:11Speaker 1: of a downpour. So hopefully my daughter and Eric will
- 2:16:13Speaker 1: get it done on Wednesday, but if not, it's coming fast.
- 2:16:15Speaker 1: I'll be sure and put up before it after pictures
- 2:16:17Speaker 1: because it's going to look great. I know that upfront.
- 2:16:20Speaker 1: For you to get a creete free quote to see
- 2:16:22Speaker 1: the products, go to Galaxyconcrete Coatings dot com. That's Galaxyconcretecoatings
- 2:16:27Speaker 1: dot com. What's happening?
- 2:16:28Speaker 2: They placed the wagers on.
- 2:16:30Speaker 1: Morning I pick about GARSD Talk stations, very very happy
- 2:16:34Speaker 1: Monday to Monday Monday. Brian James, So the world's gonna
- 2:16:38Speaker 1: all die. We're all gonna die because the government shutdown.
- 2:16:40Speaker 1: We heard what is going to close? What is not
- 2:16:42Speaker 1: going to close. What's getting held up and the uh well,
- 2:16:45Speaker 1: the ys and wherefores that go along with the government shutdown.
- 2:16:47Speaker 1: Hopefully it'll end soon. But in the meantime, we do
- 2:16:50Speaker 1: have some good information out there in the form of
- 2:16:52Speaker 1: gasoline prices. I maybe you can answer the question here's
- 2:16:56Speaker 1: the fundamental question, because it's been asked of me, and
- 2:16:58Speaker 1: again I refer to it's like the peace of God.
- 2:17:00Speaker 1: I have no idea how a price of gasoline that
- 2:17:04Speaker 1: a local gas station can be, you know, three dollars
- 2:17:07Speaker 1: one day and then jump to three dollars and fifty
- 2:17:09Speaker 1: cents the next day, and then be down to two
- 2:17:11Speaker 1: dollars and eighty cents maybe a week later. But that's
- 2:17:13Speaker 1: what's going on out there. But right now, nationally, at
- 2:17:16Speaker 1: least if you're not in California one of the other
- 2:17:18Speaker 1: crazy states, gasolines comparatively affordable. Brian, what's going on?
- 2:17:23Speaker 7: Yeah, we haven't talked about it in a long time.
- 2:17:24Speaker 7: And I don't know about you, but I haven't seen
- 2:17:26Speaker 7: any of those I did that stickers on pumps from
- 2:17:29Speaker 7: either president. The old ones are gone, there's no new ones.
- 2:17:32Speaker 7: We're not talking about gas right now. And we went
- 2:17:34Speaker 7: through you know, summer wasn't that long ago. You and
- 2:17:37Speaker 7: I went through the whole summer travel period without talking
- 2:17:39Speaker 7: about it at all. It just wasn't a topic. So
- 2:17:41Speaker 7: the US national average price right now is about three
- 2:17:44Speaker 7: dollars and seven cents, and that's the demand is flat,
- 2:17:48Speaker 7: about eight and a half million dollars per day, So
- 2:17:50Speaker 7: we're just kind of hanging loose where we are. Of course,
- 2:17:53Speaker 7: as you mentioned, it's not that way everywhere. California, Hawaii, Mississippi,
- 2:17:57Speaker 7: and Tech I'm sorry, at California hawaii're in the mid
- 2:18:00Speaker 7: wars for gas. On the lower end, you've got Mississippi
- 2:18:03Speaker 7: and Texas at about two fifty. I guess that's because
- 2:18:05Speaker 7: they're closer to the gas that's where all the refineries are,
- 2:18:08Speaker 7: and less taxes and all that fun stuff. But the
- 2:18:10Speaker 7: demand simply has not pushed it that high at all
- 2:18:15Speaker 7: this year, and we were actually were below three dollars
- 2:18:17Speaker 7: a gallon earlier this year. There's some analysts out there
- 2:18:20Speaker 7: cautioning that this could be a warning sign of a
- 2:18:22Speaker 7: slowing economy. I mean, that kind of makes a little
- 2:18:25Speaker 7: bit of sense, and the economy is slowing just a bit,
- 2:18:26Speaker 7: so not too shocking, but that's nothing going on that
- 2:18:29Speaker 7: it would make me change, you know, what I'm doing
- 2:18:31Speaker 7: on a daily basis.
- 2:18:32Speaker 1: But that's it.
- 2:18:32Speaker 6: You have.
- 2:18:33Speaker 7: Fuel prices have been in a place where we can
- 2:18:35Speaker 7: be very confident that that's not going to be the
- 2:18:37Speaker 7: top thing we're going to talk.
- 2:18:38Speaker 1: About, right And that's a great thing. After so many
- 2:18:41Speaker 1: years of being at dominating the conversation, I'm pleased that
- 2:18:44Speaker 1: this is the direction we're on right now. I guess,
- 2:18:46Speaker 1: more broadly speaking, if the price of the regular gallon
- 2:18:49Speaker 1: of gasoline's gone down, has diesel gone down as well?
- 2:18:51Speaker 1: Because that impacts everybody, and that might be something that
- 2:18:54Speaker 1: could provide a measure of relief with all the inflation
- 2:18:56Speaker 1: we're dealing with.
- 2:18:57Speaker 7: That's a great point. And for those of you who say, well,
- 2:19:00Speaker 7: my car takes on letted, I don't need diesel fuel, well,
- 2:19:02Speaker 7: guess what. Everything you buy comes to you via diesel.
- 2:19:05Speaker 7: So the US Energy Administration is expecting the average diesel
- 2:19:10Speaker 7: price to be about three sixty five a gallon in
- 2:19:12Speaker 7: twenty twenty five, three forty six, and twenty twenty six,
- 2:19:15Speaker 7: so that the assumptions for that are relatively benign too.
- 2:19:18Speaker 7: We're not really worried that diesel prices are going to
- 2:19:20Speaker 7: go through the roof anytime soon. You know that said
- 2:19:23Speaker 7: things change, As you mentioned in this area, things change
- 2:19:25Speaker 7: very very quickly. One hurricane hits a refinery somewhere and
- 2:19:28Speaker 7: all of a sudden, that causes a spike that circles
- 2:19:30Speaker 7: and circulates all the way through the entire supply line.
- 2:19:33Speaker 7: So bear in mind that that there is always that risk,
- 2:19:36Speaker 7: but at the moment that's not high on the on
- 2:19:38Speaker 7: the radar of things to be worried about.
- 2:19:40Speaker 1: So nice to hear that, Brian James. Any other good
- 2:19:43Speaker 1: news you want to pass along before we part compy
- 2:19:44Speaker 1: this morning.
- 2:19:45Speaker 7: You know, I'll just say that as I'm sitting down
- 2:19:47Speaker 7: with people doing for their financial plan reviews and all that,
- 2:19:50Speaker 7: everybody kind of sighs and says, I wish we were
- 2:19:52Speaker 7: in a more stable political environment. I didn't have to
- 2:19:55Speaker 7: be angry all the time. And this is people from
- 2:19:56Speaker 7: both sides. Brian, Oh yeah, oh yeah. What they come with.
- 2:19:59Speaker 7: The conclusion they come to is, Hey, I can't control this,
- 2:20:01Speaker 7: and b I need to not throw a temper tantrum,
- 2:20:04Speaker 7: and I need to make smart financial decisions for myself
- 2:20:07Speaker 7: and just exist in the world as it is, and
- 2:20:10Speaker 7: not try to really think about trying to change it,
- 2:20:12Speaker 7: because I cannot do that from my standpoint with my
- 2:20:15Speaker 7: own four oh one, okay, my own investments.
- 2:20:16Speaker 1: So right now you can fight to change the world.
- 2:20:18Speaker 1: You can talk about it. It's important to discuss the
- 2:20:20Speaker 1: issues that are largely out of our hands, but don't
- 2:20:24Speaker 1: let them ruin your day, right, Brian.
- 2:20:27Speaker 7: That's exactly, and that's the point of doing a plan
- 2:20:29Speaker 7: in the first place. Just understand what position you yourselves
- 2:20:31Speaker 7: are currently in. Do not worry about what other people
- 2:20:34Speaker 7: are doing, except maybe your own family. Have a discussion
- 2:20:36Speaker 7: with them. But at the same time, just control what
- 2:20:38Speaker 7: you can control and then you'll find the rest of
- 2:20:40Speaker 7: it kind of doesn't seem as.
- 2:20:41Speaker 1: Intense, Brian James, appreciate your willingness. Come on the show,
- 2:20:44Speaker 1: appreciate it all. We're financial learning out every week, and
- 2:20:47Speaker 1: take an early break rather than take you over for
- 2:20:48Speaker 1: another segment because Judge Betsy Sunnimon's going to come on.
- 2:20:51Speaker 1: She's going to tell us what smart justice means. I
- 2:20:54Speaker 1: don't know. I get to find out something to learn
- 2:20:55Speaker 1: something like I do every day on the morning show. Brian,
- 2:20:58Speaker 1: it's always great talking with you. Have a great week.
- 2:21:00Speaker 1: My friend will do this again next Monday.
- 2:21:01Speaker 7: I look forward to hearing her too. We'll talk to
- 2:21:03Speaker 7: you next week.
- 2:21:03Speaker 1: Thanks brother. It's say twenty five ifty five cares of
- 2:21:05Speaker 1: the talkstation and before I mentioned oder exit, which I'm
- 2:21:08Speaker 1: going to shout out to Jack Morgan. I just read
- 2:21:13Speaker 1: a post that Jack Morgan put up on the Cincinnati
- 2:21:16Speaker 1: Then and Now site, and he put it up a
- 2:21:19Speaker 1: couple of days ago, and I didn't see it until now.
- 2:21:21Speaker 1: It is the most beautiful, allergy inspiring tribute to my dad.
- 2:21:27Speaker 1: I'm at a loss for words. Jack Man. I cannot
- 2:21:32Speaker 1: thank you enough. He did mention me, and I just
- 2:21:35Speaker 1: I'm ignoring what he the very very kind words he
- 2:21:37Speaker 1: wrote about me. But man, he went through my dad's
- 2:21:40Speaker 1: life and just under the caption I still think Granny
- 2:21:45Speaker 1: was real. You have an opportunity to head over to
- 2:21:48Speaker 1: the CINCINNTI Then and Now and look at Jack's post
- 2:21:50Speaker 1: from October twenty fourth at two eleven PM. I would
- 2:21:53Speaker 1: be honored if you did that. It's just really just
- 2:21:56Speaker 1: the best summation of my father's legacy and his commitment
- 2:22:00Speaker 1: to the community and everything he did that I think
- 2:22:02Speaker 1: I've ever read. Really move me, Jack really did. It's
- 2:22:07Speaker 1: a twenty five right now. Now, I'll mention ODO exit
- 2:22:09Speaker 1: gets rid of everything except the stench of politics. ODO
- 2:22:11Speaker 1: Exit products are truly outstanding, and I've used all of
- 2:22:15Speaker 1: them for years. There are four different I think it's

- 2:24:24Speaker 1: happy Monday to you, Judge Betsy Sunderman. Elections have consequences,
- 2:24:29Speaker 1: and we need Betsy's Sunderman in office. She's got more
- 2:24:32Speaker 1: experience than pretty much enjoing in the bench, got a
- 2:24:35Speaker 1: great record. She cares about the city of Cincinnati, and
- 2:24:37Speaker 1: she understands crime, and she understands about bad guys and
- 2:24:40Speaker 1: what needs having to bad guys. Welcome back, Betsy Sunnerman.
- 2:24:43Speaker 1: It's great to have you on the morning show. And
- 2:24:44Speaker 1: I'll let my listeners know it's Betsy Sunderman with two
- 2:24:48Speaker 1: ends dot Com. That's where you can figure out what
- 2:24:50Speaker 1: her policies are, a little opportunity to donate, get involved,
- 2:24:53Speaker 1: whatever you can do to get her elected. Election day
- 2:24:55Speaker 1: is next Tuesday. Betsy, welcome back. Thank you for having
- 2:25:00Speaker 1: It's always a pleasure. I hope the campaign's going well
- 2:25:03Speaker 1: for you.
- 2:25:04Speaker 17: Yeah, I mean, we're all exhausted, but it's only a
- 2:25:06Speaker 17: week left, so keep.
- 2:25:09Speaker 1: Going right, I know, amen, coming into the finish line
- 2:25:11Speaker 1: hopefully delivering a big win for the city. We could
- 2:25:13Speaker 1: use more people like you on the bench. So we
- 2:25:16Speaker 1: don't have smart justice. That's initial cap smart justice? What
- 2:25:22Speaker 1: the hell is that? And why would voting for you
- 2:25:24Speaker 1: prevent us from going down that road? Betsy Sunderman, right.
- 2:25:27Speaker 17: It sounds good. Smart is a good word, right. So
- 2:25:30Speaker 17: our opponents are publicizing this platform called smart justice. And
- 2:25:37Speaker 17: I asked my two little girls last night, I said,
- 2:25:39Speaker 17: what do you think smart justice means? And my twelve
- 2:25:41Speaker 17: year old said, I don't think you can add an
- 2:25:44Speaker 17: adjective before the word justice and have it mean the
- 2:25:46Speaker 17: same thing.
- 2:25:47Speaker 1: And I said, exactly from the mouths of babes, that's beautiful.
- 2:25:53Speaker 17: Right, So what is smart justice? Smart justice is a liberal,
- 2:25:59Speaker 17: progressive movement in the court system, and the main goals
- 2:26:06Speaker 17: are to reduce mass incarceration and to promote kind of
- 2:26:11Speaker 17: a social worky style for the judges instead of our
- 2:26:15Speaker 17: traditional style. So, first of all, mass incarceration is definitely
- 2:26:21Speaker 17: not happening in Hamilton County anymore. So I don't know
- 2:26:25Speaker 17: why we need to promote the reduction of mass incarceration.
- 2:26:29Speaker 17: The jail's completely empty. We have two hundred beds available
- 2:26:34Speaker 17: all the time, with no one killing them. So if
- 2:26:38Speaker 17: anyone's running on the position of needing to lock people
- 2:26:42Speaker 17: up less, I don't think that's possible. At this point,
- 2:26:45Speaker 17: nobody's really getting locked up anymore except by the few
- 2:26:49Speaker 17: Republican judges who are left. So that's a strange talking point.
- 2:26:54Speaker 17: And then as far as the social worky stuff, I'm
- 2:26:57Speaker 17: sure your listeners have heard about our probation departments now
- 2:27:02Speaker 17: in the criminal courts are rewarding criminals for good behavior.
- 2:27:08Speaker 17: They're giving them reds, tickets and different little prizes and right,
- 2:27:14Speaker 17: so this is part of the social workie. Someone referred
- 2:27:19Speaker 17: to it as the hug a thug philosophy. And instead
- 2:27:24Speaker 17: of rewarding someone by saying you are now off probation,
- 2:27:27Speaker 17: we are rewarding them with little prizes that regular citizens
- 2:27:31Speaker 17: don't set when they don't commit crimes. Right, Right, these
- 2:27:37Speaker 17: are the kind of things I used when I was
- 2:27:39Speaker 17: trying to potty train my kids, and I would say,
- 2:27:41Speaker 17: you get a stiffer, or you get an emin m
- 2:27:44Speaker 17: or something. These are not things that should be used
- 2:27:47Speaker 17: in the court system. So, and we've seen this in
- 2:27:51Speaker 17: other cities. These kind of policies have gone into place
- 2:27:54Speaker 17: like New York City is a mess, Philadelphia, Chicago, San Francisco, Austin, Texas.
- 2:28:01Speaker 5: I mean, this.
- 2:28:01Speaker 17: Stuff does not work. The crime has gone way up
- 2:28:04Speaker 17: in these areas. People are moving out in mass numbers.
- 2:28:09Speaker 17: People don't want to live where these policies are happening.
- 2:28:11Speaker 1: Clearly well, you know, insofar as toilet training is concerned,
- 2:28:14Speaker 1: you are born without the knowledge of how to use
- 2:28:16Speaker 1: a toilet. It is part of the human process to
- 2:28:19Speaker 1: learn how to use it when you're an adult. If
- 2:28:21Speaker 1: you start defecating in public, you will be held accountable.
- 2:28:24Speaker 1: You can be arrested, you can be given a citation,
- 2:28:27Speaker 1: public exposure if you know, defecating a public if it's
- 2:28:29Speaker 1: all crimes. So, at some point you get past the
- 2:28:32Speaker 1: learning process into the punishment stage. You can't abide by
- 2:28:35Speaker 1: society's rule. Do you get punished. You were convicted of
- 2:28:38Speaker 1: a crime. That's why you're on probation. Why would we
- 2:28:40Speaker 1: be rewarding someone for showing up and visiting a probation
- 2:28:43Speaker 1: officer or not cutting off their ankle monitor or something
- 2:28:46Speaker 1: along those lines when they should full well know that
- 2:28:48Speaker 1: there are consequences for violating the terms of probation, which
- 2:28:51Speaker 1: should mean guess what, probation's over. It was a temporary
- 2:28:55Speaker 1: gift to allow you to remain free subject to being revoked.
- 2:28:59Speaker 17: Great more out of It's even more out of control
- 2:29:02Speaker 17: than that, because a lot of the Democrats judges now
- 2:29:05Speaker 17: are terminating people on probation when they haven't even done
- 2:29:08Speaker 17: half of the requirements. They're saying, Okay, well you you
- 2:29:12Speaker 17: did kind of enough, so we're going to terminate probation
- 2:29:15Speaker 17: because they want their stats to show that people are
- 2:29:19Speaker 17: not on probation as long, and that shows their method
- 2:29:22Speaker 17: is succeeding because people must be succeeding more on probation,
- 2:29:25Speaker 17: right because they're not on probation. That's just not how
- 2:29:28Speaker 17: it works. So the biggest, the biggest problem here is
- 2:29:32Speaker 17: this no cash bail reform nationally. So I was talking
- 2:29:39Speaker 17: to some of the other judges and they were saying,
- 2:29:43Speaker 17: if it weren't for mandatory sentences and some of these
- 2:29:47Speaker 17: guns crimes and things, we don't think some of these
- 2:29:49Speaker 17: judges would ever lock anyone up. We think some of
- 2:29:52Speaker 17: the judges would not lock anyone up pre trial or
- 2:29:57Speaker 17: even after conviction. I mean, right, thank god, we have
- 2:30:03Speaker 17: some mandatory sentences some types of crimes.
- 2:30:06Speaker 1: But this is all coming from the This is all
- 2:30:08Speaker 1: coming from the woke side of the political ledger, the
- 2:30:10Speaker 1: same side of the political ledger, the ones to take
- 2:30:12Speaker 1: away our Second Amendment right to keep them bare arms
- 2:30:14Speaker 1: and who thinks that. You know, firearms have to be
- 2:30:16Speaker 1: the biggest existential threat to the world, but they won't
- 2:30:19Speaker 1: punish someone for actually committing a crime with a firearm.
- 2:30:22Speaker 17: Okay, exactly, And what is the deterrent if you're committing
- 2:30:28Speaker 17: these violent crimes and the worst thing that can happen
- 2:30:31Speaker 17: to you is you get some free Red tickets or something, right,
- 2:30:34Speaker 17: I mean, where is any of the punishment.
- 2:30:38Speaker 1: It's that insentive only works for reds fans.
- 2:30:44Speaker 17: Oh that's a good point. That's a good point. But
- 2:30:46Speaker 17: when I worked in juvenile court as a prosecutor, juvenile
- 2:30:50Speaker 17: court is focused on rehabilitation. We are trying to rehabilitate juveniles,
- 2:30:56Speaker 17: you know, all the social working type things for them.
- 2:30:59Speaker 17: That's appropriate. But in adult court there has to be
- 2:31:04Speaker 17: some sense of punishment. Of course, if someone's incarcerated, we're
- 2:31:08Speaker 17: going to try to rehabilitate them. There are tons of
- 2:31:10Speaker 17: programs for that, but the main goal cannot just be
- 2:31:15Speaker 17: to rehabilitate everyone. There have to be some sense of
- 2:31:19Speaker 17: punishment in there for bad actors.
- 2:31:22Speaker 1: Yes, it's how the criminal justice system functions. It's the core,
- 2:31:26Speaker 1: key leg to the criminal justice system. I'm not going
- 2:31:30Speaker 1: to commit a crime because I don't want to be punished.
- 2:31:32Speaker 1: I don't want to lose my liberties. I don't want
- 2:31:34Speaker 1: a record. That should be enough and center for everyone
- 2:31:37Speaker 1: to not want to go down that road. Soften that blow,
- 2:31:40Speaker 1: make it something that you're not charged for or held
- 2:31:42Speaker 1: accountable for. People are going to engage in that behavior.
- 2:31:45Speaker 1: Thus it has ever been Betsy Sunderman, Judge Betsy Sunnerman,

- 2:34:32Speaker 1: The occasional call from Jeff you true patriot, Welcome back,
- 2:34:36Speaker 1: my friend. I love hearing from you.
- 2:34:39Speaker 9: Good morning Brian. As always, you guys are true patriot.
- 2:34:43Speaker 1: Appreciate that Tony Bender included even when he's covering for Jostreker.
- 2:34:48Speaker 6: Right right, right.
- 2:34:50Speaker 9: I was just wanting to it's been a while, so
- 2:34:52Speaker 9: I just wanted to thank you. It's so important to
- 2:34:56Speaker 9: have you on the air because you're just a really
- 2:35:00Speaker 9: balanced voice and you don't let people tell you you
- 2:35:05Speaker 9: know things that you know is wrong and it's not
- 2:35:08Speaker 9: even close to being the truth. And uh, and I
- 2:35:12Speaker 9: just wanted to say that to all my Democrat friends
- 2:35:16Speaker 9: out there. You know, you can still say you're a Democrat,
- 2:35:22Speaker 9: you can still talk badly about anybody you want, but
- 2:35:27Speaker 9: when you're in the voting boots, you need to remember
- 2:35:30Speaker 9: who you're voting for not only your pocket, but your
- 2:35:33Speaker 9: kids and your grandkids, in your in your community. And
- 2:35:39Speaker 9: it's just, you know, not working.
- 2:35:41Speaker 6: Out for the left right now.
- 2:35:43Speaker 9: And and I honestly think that no matter how many
- 2:35:47Speaker 9: you know, troops you put in cities, you're not going
- 2:35:50Speaker 9: to have any long term fixes until you fix the
- 2:35:54Speaker 9: justice department.
- 2:35:55Speaker 5: And we've just got way.
- 2:35:57Speaker 9: Too many judges and magistrates that don't want to puny me.
- 2:36:01Speaker 5: I mean, yes, you and I know that.
- 2:36:05Speaker 9: The police can only do so much.
- 2:36:07Speaker 5: I mean they can only arrest somebody.
- 2:36:09Speaker 9: They can't make the law to where you know, you
- 2:36:13Speaker 9: go easy on them and let them out twenty or
- 2:36:15Speaker 9: thirty times and then expect something different to happen.
- 2:36:19Speaker 1: It's like voting for a Democrat administration in downtown CINCINNTI
- 2:36:22Speaker 1: for the last forty years and expecting a different result. Sorry,
- 2:36:25Speaker 1: I had to go down that road. Yeah, I know
- 2:36:27Speaker 1: it's not the d because you're to your point and
- 2:36:29Speaker 1: it's a valid one. Don't reject a concept merely because
- 2:36:35Speaker 1: it comes from the other side of whatever political affiliation
- 2:36:39Speaker 1: you find yourself on. Look at your own political landscape.
- 2:36:41Speaker 1: If you are a Democrat, what kind of Democrat. Are
- 2:36:44Speaker 1: you Are you a far left Alexandri Casio Cortez Democrat
- 2:36:48Speaker 1: or do you think as a Democrat that that's the
- 2:36:49Speaker 1: wrong direction for your party to go. You're you're You're
- 2:36:53Speaker 1: a moving target, You're on a spectrum somewhere. Just because
- 2:36:56Speaker 1: it says D doesn't mean it's going to always make sense.
- 2:36:59Speaker 1: And just because it says D doesn't mean it's always bad.
- 2:37:02Speaker 1: Same thing goes through the Republican suggestions. And how about
- 2:37:05Speaker 1: Christopher Smith. If it comes from an independent as a concept,
- 2:37:08Speaker 1: will you be quick to reject it or might you
- 2:37:10Speaker 1: pause and say, wait a minute, what's this independent labeled
- 2:37:14Speaker 1: guy saying about this given issue. Maybe you pay more
- 2:37:17Speaker 1: attention because from it comes from an independent, you haven't
- 2:37:20Speaker 1: been indoctrinated into believing the other side is always one
- 2:37:23Speaker 1: hundercent wrong. Look at the world we're living in right now, Jeff,
- 2:37:26Speaker 1: because the entire Democrat Party is in total anti Donald
- 2:37:30Speaker 1: Trump mode. Anything he does, even if it's peace in
- 2:37:33Speaker 1: the Middle East, is rejected out a hand by Democrats
- 2:37:36Speaker 1: because they hate evil Orange man.
- 2:37:39Speaker 9: That was crazy, Yeah, I mean that was crazy, and
- 2:37:42Speaker 9: it's just and I tell people all the time, I said,
- 2:37:45Speaker 9: you know, I am not, you know, only a Republican
- 2:37:50Speaker 9: or a conservative, you know, I feel that a lot
- 2:37:53Speaker 9: of things, I'm much more libertarian. There you go, ye,
- 2:37:58Speaker 9: and maybe this will get true to him. You know,
- 2:38:04Speaker 9: I don't know if anyone that has ever been known
- 2:38:07Speaker 9: to be perfect. Yet for some reason, I pity if
- 2:38:11Speaker 9: your initial is the same as initial that I follow,
- 2:38:15Speaker 9: you're either perfect or every single thing that comes out
- 2:38:18Speaker 9: of your mouth is wrong. And I'm pretty sure I've
- 2:38:21Speaker 9: never met.
- 2:38:21Speaker 6: A perfect person.
- 2:38:22Speaker 9: I mean, if any Democrat or Republican can tell me
- 2:38:25Speaker 9: which one of them is perfect, I'd really like to
- 2:38:28Speaker 9: meet him, because I've met a perfect person before. But
- 2:38:31Speaker 9: if they both work together and get over this stuff,
- 2:38:35Speaker 9: I mean, it's pretty sad when a person like Fetterman,
- 2:38:38Speaker 9: who has had a lot of health issues, and God
- 2:38:42Speaker 9: bless him, at least he's talking common sense. I mean,
- 2:38:45Speaker 9: he's not talking like a Republican, he's just common sense.
- 2:38:49Speaker 5: I know.
- 2:38:50Speaker 1: When f has to be a bellweather for sanity within
- 2:38:54Speaker 1: the Democratic Party, you know you've reached a real milestone. Jeff.
- 2:38:58Speaker 1: That was the guy we were all collectively called bat
- 2:39:00Speaker 1: crap insane until he proved that he isn't bat crap insane.
- 2:39:04Speaker 1: Who'd ever thought we'd see that day. It's a great point.
- 2:39:08Speaker 1: Take care, Jeff. I appreciate your call. I really do.
- 2:39:11Speaker 1: And as far as not knowing anything I made just
- 2:39:13Speaker 1: coming about politicians all the time, we just kind of assume,
- 2:39:15Speaker 1: whoa Joe. They're a representative, they're a senator, they must
- 2:39:18Speaker 1: know about all the things that are legislating over. Yeah,
- 2:39:20Speaker 1: and and Guam's gonna capsize. Yes you've heard me use
- 2:39:24Speaker 1: that one before, but it's true. Somebody thought Gwam's going
- 2:39:26Speaker 1: to capsize. Step back from it and realize you are
- 2:39:32Speaker 1: an amazing expert at something but not everything. John Gardner's
- 2:39:38Speaker 1: out there somewhere, John Gardner, God bless you. He was
- 2:39:40Speaker 1: kind of waxing poetic at homecoming up. Thomas's smartest man ready.
- 2:39:44Speaker 1: I can't believe how smart he is. He seems a dude.
- 2:39:47Speaker 1: I'm not smart. You're the commercial real estate genius. I
- 2:39:50Speaker 1: said on a Jack squad about commercial real estate. You
- 2:39:53Speaker 1: are the one that's smart depending upon the subject matter.
- 2:39:58Speaker 1: I said. You think I'm smart because I pay attention
- 2:40:00Speaker 1: to politics just means that you're not the ones sitting
- 2:40:02Speaker 1: in front of a weed dwelling stack of articles relating
- 2:40:05Speaker 1: to politics all day long, every single day, for eight
- 2:40:08Speaker 1: to ten hours a day. Maybe I should have chosen
- 2:40:11Speaker 1: commercial real estate. I don't know, but remember when you're
- 2:40:17Speaker 1: talking about and people of the mindset we need to
- 2:40:18Speaker 1: put our decision making in the hands of someone else.
- 2:40:22Speaker 1: That is a dangerous, perilous path to go down. They
- 2:40:26Speaker 1: don't know your life, You don't live your life, You
- 2:40:29Speaker 1: don't walk a mile in your shoes, and they sure
- 2:40:31Speaker 1: us all the further away from your house that they're
- 2:40:35Speaker 1: passing laws and regulations and rules and edicts and mandates.
- 2:40:39Speaker 1: The further the way they are from their house, the
- 2:40:40Speaker 1: less they know about your lived experience, and less likely
- 2:40:43Speaker 1: is they're going to do something that's beneficial for you.
- 2:40:46Speaker 1: That's why I reject and that notion out of hand.
- 2:40:49Speaker 1: This is why I believe in the criminal justice system.
- 2:40:51Speaker 1: If it was painful to commit crimes, you wouldn't commit crimes.
- 2:40:55Speaker 1: It's what's kept me out of jail my entire life.
- 2:40:58Speaker 1: I don't want to lose my freedom in liberty that
- 2:41:00Speaker 1: scares the living hell out of me. The punishment. I
- 2:41:11Speaker 1: want to enter into a conversation again about what's a
- 2:41:13Speaker 1: fascist anyway? Yeah, I don't believe Donald Trump is telling
- 2:41:18Speaker 1: me how I need to lift my life. Seems to
- 2:41:20Speaker 1: me Donald Trump is doing everything and he can in
- 2:41:22Speaker 1: his power to get us away from that. Cutting regulations,
- 2:41:27Speaker 1: cutting red take, cutting the size and scope of government.
- 2:41:30Speaker 1: What does that do? Oh my god, I'm not gonna
- 2:41:32Speaker 1: get No, maybe you're not gonna get fill in the blank.
- 2:41:35Speaker 1: You'll be a hell of a lot better for it.
- 2:41:37Speaker 1: The American taxpayer won't be throwing bood good money after
- 2:41:40Speaker 1: bad for another failed program filled with fraud, waste, and
- 2:41:43Speaker 1: abuse in the name of something that started out to
- 2:41:45Speaker 1: be altruistic. Fiveifty five afty five k CD Talk Station.
