- 1:19Speaker 9: you for hanging on what's on your mind, sir, Good morning, Joe.
- 1:23Speaker 10: You mean you're not the Iatola of rock and roller.
- 1:26Speaker 9: No, no, I've never I've never claimed that kind of theocracy.
- 1:29Speaker 9: There's too much work involved in that anyway.
- 1:32Speaker 10: Anyway, But now I wanted to call because I love radio.
- 1:37Speaker 10: It's it's good for people that are single, and it's
- 1:40Speaker 10: good for people that need background. And I'm not saying
- 1:43Speaker 10: this in a nuggad way. I'm saying this in a
- 1:45Speaker 10: positive way. And I say noise, I mean noise that
- 1:49Speaker 10: fills No.
- 1:50Speaker 9: No, I mean this in a good way.
- 1:51Speaker 10: You know, you need sound, you need you need volume,
- 1:54Speaker 10: you need you need you know, all those synchronicity. And
- 1:58Speaker 10: the thing about radio is, yeah, I know there's a
- 2:00Speaker 10: fifteen second delay, but you can. And I'm not sure
- 2:04Speaker 10: if I agree with all the podcast stuff and with
- 2:07Speaker 10: you know, like live video with and then and then
- 2:10Speaker 10: and then you know, the sound, because it takes away
- 2:13Speaker 10: some of the mystique of radios.
- 2:15Speaker 9: Well, I think I think there's a there's a live connection.
- 2:18Speaker 9: I remember when I used to work I was first
- 2:21Speaker 9: getting into radio. I used to work all night cleaning
- 2:24Speaker 9: a burger king because I knew how to. But it
- 2:27Speaker 9: was also something I didn't need to devote a lot
- 2:29Speaker 9: of my brain power too, because I was working on
- 2:31Speaker 9: creating a radio career, so it was a it was
- 2:34Speaker 9: a win win for me. But you know, you're in
- 2:37Speaker 9: a shopping center in the middle of the night where
- 2:40Speaker 9: the only person around is the moderately creepy security guard
- 2:44Speaker 9: that stops by to see if you have any leftover
- 2:46Speaker 9: apple pies, and you just need to know, you need
- 2:51Speaker 9: to know that there's another living human being on the planet,
- 2:55Speaker 9: even if they're not in your town, that there's just
- 2:57Speaker 9: another human being alive at the moment, and and maybe
- 3:01Speaker 9: they'll talk to you, maybe they'll play a song for
- 3:03Speaker 9: you or whatever. But the more important thing about the
- 3:06Speaker 9: radio news stuff is that you know you're you're gonna
- 3:10Speaker 9: miss out on things. The more genericized, the more centralized
- 3:14Speaker 9: this stuff becomes, because it'll all turn into just uh,
- 3:18Speaker 9: President Trump said this, Governor you know said that, you know,
- 3:22Speaker 9: and it'll only be the biggest national stories, the most generic,
- 3:27Speaker 9: the ones that will work in Sandpoint, Iowa, and Riverhead,
- 3:30Speaker 9: New York and every point in between, rather than hey,
- 3:35Speaker 9: you know, this is what's happening in the race for
- 3:37Speaker 9: governor of your state, or who's raising taxes to give
- 3:41Speaker 9: more slush fund money to your school board, and all
- 3:44Speaker 9: of that stuff that happens in between. Because these these folks,
- 3:47Speaker 9: by the time they get to Washington, they've learned it
- 3:49Speaker 9: pretty well in their state governments there and and we've
- 3:54Speaker 9: got to have that connection otherwise radio will actually will
- 3:59Speaker 9: actually lose its audience. Hang on a second, Joal, because
- 4:02Speaker 9: we've got to tell everyone what's been going on. Otherwise,
- 4:05Speaker 9: how can we discuss it. CBS News announced that they're
- 4:09Speaker 9: shuddering a radio division that used to carry this sanctified
- 4:13Speaker 9: Edward R. Murrow and for more than one hundred years.
- 4:16Speaker 9: They said that they just can't make money broadcasting to
- 4:19Speaker 9: ninety three percent of the population anymore. We don't know
- 4:22Speaker 9: how that is, but that's corporation for you. Ninety thousand
- 4:26Speaker 9: bottles of children's ibut prof and oral suspension made by

- 4:39Speaker 9: US President Donald Trump said he's considering winding down military

- 4:51Speaker 9: the region. Oil prices rode the roller coaster yesterday, reaching

- 5:24Speaker 9: Senior spokesman for their Armed forces war on Friday that
- 5:28Speaker 9: they are going to target US and Israeli travel points
- 5:32Speaker 9: as spring break comes about. Apparently they know about spring
- 5:35Speaker 9: break in Tehran. They are targeting easter and passover vacation spots,
- 5:41Speaker 9: said General a Bolvaz shirk Hockey. I'm guessing at the pronunciation.
- 5:47Speaker 9: He's apparently just been pushed out in front of a
- 5:50Speaker 9: camera to speak, and he has a giant target on
- 5:53Speaker 9: his back now. And those are some of our first

- 13:43Speaker 1: You you are new are amidst being in the wealthiest city,
- 13:49Speaker 1: in the wealthiest country in the history of the world.
- 13:52Speaker 1: We already see an exodus of working in middle class
- 13:54Speaker 1: New Yorkers. So I don't have a hesitation in asking
- 13:57Speaker 1: those who make the most amount of money in the
- 13:59Speaker 1: city or the most profits in the city, to pay
- 14:01Speaker 1: a little bit more.
- 14:02Speaker 9: Hey, zefad mad money. I know you got elected mayor
- 14:06Speaker 9: in like a six way race, and you got twenty
- 14:08Speaker 9: percent and everyone else to fate up the other eighty
- 14:11Speaker 9: but there's a reason there's an exodus of middle class
- 14:15Speaker 9: people from New York because the people with money. Who oh,
- 14:20Speaker 9: what's the word? Oh, there's a there's a word. Oh oh,
- 14:25Speaker 9: where's my where's my Adam Smith? To English Dictionary? My
- 14:30Speaker 9: Adam Smith the English issue. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. These
- 14:33Speaker 9: are the people we work for. If you tax them
- 14:37Speaker 9: too much, they fire us because they have to pay
- 14:40Speaker 9: their taxes with the money they would have paid us. Nimrod.
- 14:45Speaker 9: Nimrod the thirteenth is what he is. It's just me,
- 14:49Speaker 9: you know. Mad money is making David Dinkins look like
- 14:53Speaker 9: the great mayor of New York, or at least by
- 14:56Speaker 9: comparison there. Joel was hanging on the line with us,
- 14:59Speaker 9: but before we headed to break and had to get
- 15:02Speaker 9: you the news into your earbone. Uh so, Joel, you
- 15:05Speaker 9: had a second point. You were talking about how great
- 15:08Speaker 9: radio is, and that's awesome, But what from the news
- 15:11Speaker 9: of the day has you woke up this morning? And
- 15:13Speaker 9: I mean woke.
- 15:17Speaker 10: I'll get to my point, but I have to add
- 15:18Speaker 10: your comment. Joe, but you're not getting all the benefits
- 15:21Speaker 10: because you didn't come in here illegally.
- 15:23Speaker 2: Well, that's right.
- 15:24Speaker 9: I mean the permanent underclass. They need them. Somebody has
- 15:29Speaker 9: to pay these doctors to force the newslet right. I mean,
- 15:33Speaker 9: you don't want to do it, middle but this is
- 15:36Speaker 9: the same old thing. I mean, they say, I'm not
- 15:38Speaker 9: going to give ze Fod mad Money, the Mayor of
- 15:40Speaker 9: New York, any any gravitas for having invented something new.
- 15:44Speaker 9: This has been the left wing paradigm forever. You know,
- 15:48Speaker 9: go back. Ein Rand wrote beautiful prose about the takers
- 15:52Speaker 9: and the makers and what could eventually happen, and he's
- 15:56Speaker 9: living it right now. John Galt, you know, movers has
- 15:59Speaker 9: been moving the makers out the New York Stock Exchange.
- 16:04Speaker 9: And I remember when I was a kid, Joel, the
- 16:06Speaker 9: big panic during the bankruptcy of the nineteen seventies was
- 16:11Speaker 9: that the New York Stock Exchange could move to a
- 16:15Speaker 9: campus in Westchester. Now Westchester sounds far away, it's not.
- 16:20Speaker 9: It's about a fifteen minute drive from downtown Manhattan in
- 16:24Speaker 9: no traffic. It's kind of in between Manhattan and our
- 16:27Speaker 9: dear friends on WGH and Greenwich, Connecticut. Now there's rumblings
- 16:33Speaker 9: and grumblings that the New York Stock Exchange could become
- 16:36Speaker 9: the US Stock Exchange and moved to the east coast
- 16:40Speaker 9: of Florida near marri Lago. You imagine the US Stock
- 16:45Speaker 9: Exchange leaving New York City and what would be left
- 16:49Speaker 9: for zefod mad Money to govern.
- 16:53Speaker 10: Well, you're having people with collective thought that are moving
- 16:59Speaker 10: to Florida and Texas because they don't want to They
- 17:03Speaker 10: don't want to put up, they don't want to put
- 17:04Speaker 10: up with.
- 17:04Speaker 9: The slave owner.
- 17:06Speaker 16: You know.
- 17:07Speaker 9: Well, but that what we act like. Our employer is
- 17:09Speaker 9: our slave owners. So you listen to zefaon mad Money
- 17:12Speaker 9: lamb based the wealthy people of New York. Of the
- 17:15Speaker 9: few that remain, these are the people that we work for.
- 17:18Speaker 9: Remember what happened when Bill Clinton went after the No,
- 17:23Speaker 9: it wasn't Bill Clinton, was it. Barack Obama went after
- 17:27Speaker 9: luxury ships, and Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi and the
- 17:31Speaker 9: House and Senate and invested in a tax scheme to
- 17:35Speaker 9: go after luxury yacht owners and taxes, and that was
- 17:39Speaker 9: their big thing. Oh, we're going after the luxury yacht owners. Yeah,
- 17:43Speaker 9: but what happened was an entire city in North Carolina
- 17:46Speaker 9: went bankrupt because you know what they did there, made
- 17:50Speaker 9: luxury yachts. And so two two separate luxury yacht manufacturing companies,
- 17:57Speaker 9: all employing blue collar people to manufacturer of these yachts
- 18:01Speaker 9: went away because people weren't buying them anymore because oh,
- 18:06Speaker 9: it's gonna pay higher taxes on it. It all sounds
- 18:09Speaker 9: like fun and games. It's all the Marxist nonsense that
- 18:14Speaker 9: they throw out there. Because when you're poor, when you're
- 18:17Speaker 9: having trouble making ends meet, and you've got an electric
- 18:20Speaker 9: bill that's four times what it was, and you want
- 18:23Speaker 9: to blame somebody, but you also don't know what you're
- 18:26Speaker 9: going to do. Incomes Marxists like ze Fod mad Money,
- 18:30Speaker 9: who's at least honest about being a socialist, and says,
- 18:35Speaker 9: I'll go get it from the rich guys. And you're like, yeah,
- 18:37Speaker 9: go get it from the rich guys. You don't know
- 18:39Speaker 9: any rich guys, or if you do, you hate them
- 18:41Speaker 9: because they're your boss. They're the CEO of the hospital
- 18:45Speaker 9: chain you work for, or they're the owner of the
- 18:48Speaker 9: radio group that you work for, or whoever, so it's
- 18:51Speaker 9: easy to dislike them. They just told you you couldn't
- 18:53Speaker 9: take vacation when you wanted to, or that you weren't
- 18:56Speaker 9: getting a five percent raised this year. So you're mad
- 18:59Speaker 9: at them and you're like, yeah, they I want you
- 19:02Speaker 9: to go after them. It's it's like that silly Bad
- 19:04Speaker 9: Bosses movie. Uh there. You know, there's this this class
- 19:09Speaker 9: warfare is being engendered in so many dumb places. I
- 19:14Speaker 9: just feel like I'm a forest you know, I'm a
- 19:16Speaker 9: firefighter trying to fight a forest fire because there's a
- 19:19Speaker 9: new place everywhere. Anyway, I'm sorry, I'm monologuing again.
- 19:23Speaker 2: You're trying to jump in.
- 19:24Speaker 10: Yeah, I don't want to cut you, but I just
- 19:26Speaker 10: wanted to say this that we have people and we
- 19:29Speaker 10: know this as you know, you don't have to be
- 19:32Speaker 10: a Republican or Democrat, but people with some kind of sanity,
- 19:36Speaker 10: even like John Fetterman. But you have to realize that
- 19:40Speaker 10: a lot of these people have never worked a dirty
- 19:43Speaker 10: job in their life. And I mean a dirty job
- 19:45Speaker 10: where you're you are at cleaning toilets, you are working,
- 19:48Speaker 10: you know, in a restaurant, you are cleaning uh stables,
- 19:52Speaker 10: You are working, you know, and not dirty in the
- 19:55Speaker 10: sense that physical dirty and and and they are get
- 19:59Speaker 10: callouses on your hands waking up every day, you know,
- 20:02Speaker 10: putting doing plumbing or doing elect electrical work, or doing
- 20:05Speaker 10: air condistry work. I mean, they've never done it, and
- 20:08Speaker 10: I've done I've done a lot of dirty jobs. And
- 20:11Speaker 10: I say that in a good way because if you don't,
- 20:14Speaker 10: if you don't get sweat beads on your head, you
- 20:16Speaker 10: really you can't build any character.
- 20:18Speaker 9: But there's also a conceit about serving another person too.
- 20:23Speaker 9: So if you're a plumber, you have clients, if you're
- 20:27Speaker 9: you know, a radio show host, you have clients. You
- 20:30Speaker 9: have customers. And one of the reasons CBS is failing
- 20:33Speaker 9: they have too many customers, and they they view the
- 20:35Speaker 9: ones that have bought shares in the company as the
- 20:38Speaker 9: most important customer, not the listener of the radio news
- 20:42Speaker 9: or the advertisers of the radio news. Me on the
- 20:45Speaker 9: other hand, I think you're the most important customer. I
- 20:48Speaker 9: think first free coffee bar is the most important, or
- 20:51Speaker 9: or JCS Gold. These are my important customers. But the
- 20:55Speaker 9: first one is you. Because if I don't serve you,
- 20:58Speaker 9: I can't serve them. When you're in the these corporate situations,
- 21:01Speaker 9: you're not thinking about it. And the politicians, the politicians,
- 21:04Speaker 9: as you said, who have never worked in the real world,
- 21:07Speaker 9: they don't get that anyway. Joel, good stuff glad we
- 21:10Speaker 9: hung on to you, my friend. You have a good weekend,

- 23:10Speaker 19: Today's modern vehicle, whether it's a car, suv, or light truck,
- 23:14Speaker 19: is designed with a specific fuel in mind. Read your
- 23:16Speaker 19: owner's manual. What octane rating does the vehicle manufacturer call for?
- 23:20Speaker 19: That's what you should use, But there are exceptions to
- 23:23Speaker 19: the rule. Many high end or luxury vehicles call for
- 23:26Speaker 19: premium or higher octane fuel, and the reason for this
- 23:29Speaker 19: is not just due to the octane rating.
- 23:31Speaker 9: There are better fuel.
- 23:32Speaker 19: System cleaners in premium fuels. Gasoline companies know too. The
- 23:35Speaker 19: vehicles that run on premium won't perform as well with
- 23:38Speaker 19: carbon deposits, so they pack more cleaning power into their
- 23:41Speaker 19: premium fuels than their regular blend. If you rotate your
- 23:44Speaker 19: fuel choices around say every third tank full, you may
- 23:47Speaker 19: find better performance and miles per gallon because you are

- 24:12Speaker 12: doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized
- 24:18Speaker 12: curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program.
- 24:23Speaker 12: It makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation
- 24:27Speaker 12: is a key component to our overall health. The Mayo
- 24:31Speaker 12: Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has
- 24:36Speaker 12: antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent cancer
- 24:42Speaker 12: or at least slow the spread of cancer, and in
- 24:45Speaker 12: many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy
- 24:51Speaker 12: cells even from radiation. Totalwellness dot com, where we help

- 28:14Speaker 2: We didn't make talk radio, we made it better. First
- 28:17Speaker 2: thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network said.
- 28:21Speaker 20: It was wrong and they was right.
- 28:23Speaker 2: Bomb bom bom bomb Iran.
- 28:26Speaker 8: Bomb bom bom bom bomb. I ran.
- 28:31Speaker 9: You know, It's interesting the when I watch protesters and
- 28:35Speaker 9: they protest and they say I'm for you know I said,
- 28:42Speaker 9: and they say, oh, Iran is the victim of this
- 28:46Speaker 9: assault by the West, and where where's it? And these
- 28:50Speaker 9: are the people who are hanging dissidents in the streets,
- 28:57Speaker 9: public hangings, not just the private kind where you know,
- 29:01Speaker 9: we take you away and we put you in a
- 29:03Speaker 9: J sixth cell forever because we pinged your cell phone.
- 29:11Speaker 9: And all the folks who are out there getting the
- 29:16Speaker 9: Hamas on you know, going it's the same ad agency
- 29:20Speaker 9: that rebranded Hamas as a marginalized community. This crowd that
- 29:26Speaker 9: has forgotten that all of the terrorist acts that have
- 29:30Speaker 9: taken place have been paid for by this regime, and
- 29:37Speaker 9: they hold our you know, the very lifeblood of our
- 29:41Speaker 9: existence hostage. And then you've got the Green Peace people
- 29:46Speaker 9: who are supporting Iran because Iran's doing what they couldn't do,
- 29:50Speaker 9: which has closed the Strait of Hormuz. The Green Agenda
- 29:56Speaker 9: people are celebrating the closure of the Strait of Hormuz,
- 29:59Speaker 9: which it hasn't been done militarily, by the way, quick note,
- 30:03Speaker 9: as we reported to you yesterday, this is being done
- 30:06Speaker 9: by the insurance industry because for fairly reasonable concern, they're
- 30:12Speaker 9: not insuring any of the tankers or many of the
- 30:15Speaker 9: tankers that are going or scheduled to go through the
- 30:18Speaker 9: strait afoord moves. That's like somebody coming into an insurance
- 30:23Speaker 9: agent saying, hey, I've got a Lamborghini Diablo candy Apple
- 30:31Speaker 9: red and I live in Brooklyn. Can I get car insurance?
- 30:35Speaker 9: Can I get theft? And no, what do you mean? No,
- 30:41Speaker 9: we're not ensuring your red Lamborghini that you're going to
- 30:44Speaker 9: park in Bedford Stuyvesant. Okay, we act like, you know,
- 30:50Speaker 9: this is a strange idea, but this is just you know,
- 30:54Speaker 9: people saying, I don't think your ship has a great
- 30:56Speaker 9: hit or if you want to pay us enough. And
- 30:58Speaker 9: this is where the increases because the ships that are
- 31:02Speaker 9: getting through the Strait of Horne Moves are paying confiscatory
- 31:05Speaker 9: rates for insurance because there's a higher than average chance
- 31:12Speaker 9: that the ship is going to go boom and the
- 31:15Speaker 9: insurance company is going to have to pay off on it.
- 31:20Speaker 9: So there's so much more going on there than the
- 31:24Speaker 9: but the Green Agenda, and they're supportive Iran now because
- 31:27Speaker 9: the Strait of horn Moves is closed. It's just it's laughable.
- 31:32Speaker 9: What you're really doing are supporting the very people that
- 31:35Speaker 9: you were decrying back in the healthcare debate. Remember when
- 31:38Speaker 9: you shot a healthcare CEO in the streets. But at
- 31:43Speaker 9: this point in time, when we're looking at Virginia Democrats
- 31:46Speaker 9: and Florida Democrats taking opposite sides of constitutionality issues, How
- 31:53Speaker 9: do you even count on anything? So that brings us
- 31:57Speaker 9: to the remaining represent tentive people that you might want
- 32:01Speaker 9: to count on, like, oh, I don't know, Senate Republican
- 32:04Speaker 9: Majority Majority Leader John Thume.
- 32:07Speaker 23: We are kicking off an extended debate on the Save
- 32:10Speaker 23: America Act, a package of common sense measures united around
- 32:15Speaker 23: two themes, protecting our elections and protecting our youth.
- 32:21Speaker 9: And everyone's asking me, why is John Thune against the
- 32:24Speaker 9: Save Act? He is not against the Save Act, He's
- 32:27Speaker 9: against all the procedural wranglings they're trying to get around
- 32:31Speaker 9: to get it to a vote. And what John Thune forgets.
- 32:36Speaker 9: So John Thune is very much living. He's a creature
- 32:39Speaker 9: of right now, and he's not being asked the right
- 32:45Speaker 9: questions regarding Philibuster. Or maybe he is telling you all
- 32:51Speaker 9: he needs to tell you about Philibuster. Philibuster was a
- 32:55Speaker 9: concoction of the eighteen hundreds used by Dixie Kraft, that's
- 33:03Speaker 9: to oppose a lot of legislation that would have granted
- 33:07Speaker 9: more and more opportunities and crimped more and more Jim
- 33:13Speaker 9: Crow laws from the US Senate. And it was born
- 33:22Speaker 9: of debate, and that you would debate, you would hold
- 33:28Speaker 9: the floor up, and you would have a debate about something.
- 33:31Speaker 9: But you had to at some point, somebody had to
- 33:33Speaker 9: call the tune and say, we have to get to
- 33:35Speaker 9: a debate. So somewhere along the lines prior to the
- 33:37Speaker 9: Civil Wars, somebody said, well, you know, there's a hundred
- 33:40Speaker 9: of us. Actually not even at that point, there wasn't
- 33:43Speaker 9: one hundred of them. There was probably like sixty of them.
- 33:50Speaker 9: And they said, well, we need to get to a
- 33:52Speaker 9: higher bar than just half of us to end a debate.
- 33:55Speaker 9: We don't want to we don't want to end debate
- 33:58Speaker 9: for you know, just because half plus one said so.
- 34:03Speaker 9: They want to do everything else with half plus one.
- 34:07Speaker 9: But ending debate on a bill and bringing it to
- 34:11Speaker 9: the floor in the Senate became, oh, no, we need
- 34:14Speaker 9: to raise the bar on that. So the filibuster was
- 34:19Speaker 9: created and cloture was created. But these are all creations
- 34:26Speaker 9: of the Senate, not of the Constitution. The Senate decided
- 34:31Speaker 9: to do philibuster, the Senate decided how to end filibuster.
- 34:37Speaker 9: So when John Thune talks about not wanting to break
- 34:42Speaker 9: with tradition, he says, there's peril in passing the Save Act.
- 34:49Speaker 9: So I've had several listeners saying, what is the peril?
- 34:51Speaker 9: What are we not seeing in the Save Act that
- 34:54Speaker 9: would require American citizenship to be proven before getting on
- 34:59Speaker 9: the voter rolls? Peril are we seeing? And these are
- 35:02Speaker 9: smart people who have lived through republicans enthusiasm for the
- 35:08Speaker 9: ERIC software. You remember ERIC. I forget what the acronym
- 35:14Speaker 9: stands for, but ERIC is an acronym for software that
- 35:19Speaker 9: was foisted upon conservative states to help those conservative states
- 35:25Speaker 9: go through the voter rolls. And I say conservative states
- 35:28Speaker 9: because the liberal once didn't want to go through their
- 35:30Speaker 9: voter roles even though they had been federally mandated too.
- 35:38Speaker 9: And the ERIC software turned out to be actually a
- 35:41Speaker 9: left wing plant, left wing red herring that actually allowed
- 35:49Speaker 9: the left to use the data collected in ERIC to
- 35:53Speaker 9: find eligible but unregistered voters and go out and during
- 35:58Speaker 9: COVID vote harvest from them. This is one of the
- 36:04Speaker 9: things the Zuckerbucks paid for back in twenty twenty, which
- 36:08Speaker 9: was this ability to go out and vote harvest ballot
- 36:11Speaker 9: harvest from the eligible but unregistered voters. And the Conservatives,
- 36:21Speaker 9: when they realized it, went, oh crap, we were fooled,
- 36:26Speaker 9: so the Save Act. As John Thune continues to push
- 36:29Speaker 9: back against the Save Act, there are people who are saying,
- 36:32Speaker 9: what are we missing? You're not missing anything in the legislation.
- 36:37Speaker 9: Thune's whole opposition is the Senate rules, long standing filibuster rules.
- 36:44Speaker 9: He doesn't want to make the talking filibuster because the
- 36:47Speaker 9: talking filibuster, and this is interesting and I don't think
- 36:50Speaker 9: people are giving this enough credit to John Thune. In
- 36:54Speaker 9: the talking filibuster. One of the things you're allowed to
- 36:58Speaker 9: do in the talking philibuster are amend the bill on
- 37:02Speaker 9: the fly. So as you're filibustering, you're amending the bill.
- 37:12Speaker 9: I think that's an important thing for people to remember
- 37:15Speaker 9: that if we brought, if we've pushed them back to
- 37:17Speaker 9: the talking filibuster, they could, as they talk, amend the
- 37:24Speaker 9: bill and put things in there you don't want, or
- 37:26Speaker 9: weaken things you want strengthened in there. So, just as
- 37:30Speaker 9: a fair broker, John Thune supports the Save Act, he
- 37:34Speaker 9: doesn't support the way the Senate operates, And to be fair,
- 37:38Speaker 9: the Senate shouldn't be operating on the Save America Act
- 37:42Speaker 9: and the way it is. Because his first argument, the
- 37:46Speaker 9: long standing Senate rules really need to be dragged out
- 37:50Speaker 9: into the town square and examined, because it's a way
- 37:54Speaker 9: for the Senate to avoid doing anything anymore.
- 38:01Speaker 5: Can you believe with all the recent violent protests, looting,
- 38:05Speaker 5: and destruction, some areas are considering either defunding or.
- 38:09Speaker 9: Abolishing the police.
- 38:11Speaker 5: At a time when America's neighborhoods need the protection of
- 38:14Speaker 5: police the most, some elected officials would rather create more

- 44:24Speaker 9: So, the word philibuster comes from the word to pirate.
- 44:33Speaker 9: I think it's Dutch, the root of the word. It
- 44:37Speaker 9: means to pirate and so prepared to be boarded. Maybe
- 44:45Speaker 9: joined me on the black pearl. So the filibuster as
- 44:51Speaker 9: in context as we're talking about the Save Act a
- 44:53Speaker 9: little bit here and taking up to a small degree
- 44:56Speaker 9: for John Thune. Though John Thune, you so is protecting
- 45:01Speaker 9: things that I don't know. Necessarily, if everybody knew why
- 45:06Speaker 9: they existed, we'd be running around to protect them. Now, Yes,
- 45:09Speaker 9: does the filibuster as its existence give voice to the minority. Yes,
- 45:18Speaker 9: it gives the minority party, the party that's not in
- 45:21Speaker 9: the majority, an opportunity to hold up legislation it opposes.
- 45:33Speaker 9: The first delay tactic came in seventeen eighty nine by
- 45:39Speaker 9: a Senator named William McLay who noted that senators talked
- 45:48Speaker 9: away time to prevent passage of legislation. So they developed
- 45:53Speaker 9: something called the previous question motion. And if you made
- 46:02Speaker 9: a motion and got seconded for a previous question motion,
- 46:06Speaker 9: then just a simple majority of the senators could end
- 46:10Speaker 9: the filibuster and you'd go on to something else and
- 46:13Speaker 9: you'd be able to vote on the legislation. Then in
- 46:19Speaker 9: the Civil War era, but mostly in the post Civil
- 46:24Speaker 9: War era, as banking laws were trying to be written
- 46:29Speaker 9: to keep the newly freed black population from being able
- 46:33Speaker 9: to use white banks. Yeah, I mean, we all talk
- 46:40Speaker 9: about the water fountains, but there was a lot more
- 46:42Speaker 9: going on in that The filibuster became more popular amongst
- 46:48Speaker 9: the newly introduced or newly repatriated Dixie senators, the senators
- 46:54Speaker 9: from the former Confederate states who were given a wide
- 46:59Speaker 9: berth by Northern and senators who wanted to be seen
- 47:01Speaker 9: as conciliatory and living by Lincoln's rules of welcoming them
- 47:07Speaker 9: all back in. So as they pushed the envelope on
- 47:11Speaker 9: the filibuster, they weren't pushed back on because often the
- 47:20Speaker 9: illusion was, well, you know what happened the last time
- 47:23Speaker 9: you didn't listen to us. Then by the Civil Rights era,
- 47:28Speaker 9: still the filibuster is used to stop reforms and laws
- 47:33Speaker 9: that would have superseded Jim Crow laws in local states.
- 47:40Speaker 9: The cloture rule itself goes back to that wonderful period
- 47:44Speaker 9: in American history, the nineteen tens, specifically the same year
- 47:49Speaker 9: that the Federal Reserve system was created, and the first
- 47:55Speaker 9: of many legislations to restrict the size and scope of
- 47:59Speaker 9: your representation were put into place in nineteen seventeen, but
- 48:14Speaker 9: it allowed that's when you first see the codification of
- 48:20Speaker 9: the super majority first come into play in nineteen seventy
- 48:26Speaker 9: nineteen seventeen, so many good things, like I said, the
- 48:30Speaker 9: Federal Reserve Senate being elected by the public, all of
- 48:35Speaker 9: that stuff coming from that technocratic boom of the early
- 48:39Speaker 9: nineteen teens. So before you just sit there and say
- 48:45Speaker 9: this is constantial, the people who framed James Madison did
- 48:49Speaker 9: not write in the filibuster. This was interpretations almost from
- 48:54Speaker 9: the drop of the hat on how the Senate was
- 48:57Speaker 9: going to operate. And some of it, like I said,
- 48:59Speaker 9: comes from the right place of trying to make sure
- 49:02Speaker 9: the minority voice gets heard. But remember, up until nineteen seventeen,
- 49:16Speaker 9: the senator's job was to protect the state's taxpayers because
- 49:21Speaker 9: they were appointed by the state to go and get
- 49:27Speaker 9: the money. As it were, they were the American Treasury's
- 49:30Speaker 9: bag man. So the House would pass a budget, send
- 49:36Speaker 9: it to the Senate. The Senate would go back to
- 49:38Speaker 9: their bosses, which was the state government, and say, here's
- 49:42Speaker 9: what we need you to collect in taxes so that
- 49:44Speaker 9: we can give it to the US Treasury as our
- 49:49Speaker 9: membership fee. But then once we switch into a popularly
- 49:56Speaker 9: elected Senate, we don't change a lot of the substant
- 50:02Speaker 9: of rules. We say we changed the most sub substant
- 50:06Speaker 9: rule of the US Senate, which was now senators were
- 50:09Speaker 9: elected by the public rather than chosen by the state government.
- 50:15Speaker 9: But we didn't change any of the other rules governing
- 50:17Speaker 9: their body. We left the filibuster in there. We allowed
- 50:24Speaker 9: them to keep six year terms so that you could
- 50:28Speaker 9: be a super legislator. While you hung up legislation, you
- 50:31Speaker 9: didn't have to worry about answering to your constituents because
- 50:34Speaker 9: the next time you came up for reelection it was
- 50:37Speaker 9: going to be half a decade had passed, and so
- 50:40Speaker 9: many other things would have distracted them from it. So
- 50:45Speaker 9: while John Thune isn't wrong, and in the talking Filibuster,
- 50:51Speaker 9: I think it's important to say would give Chuck Schumer
- 50:55Speaker 9: at al opportunities to amend the Save America Act in
- 51:00Speaker 9: ways I don't think you or I would want. He's
- 51:06Speaker 9: defending a process that has metastasized like a like a
- 51:11Speaker 9: goiter on the body politic and then became full on
- 51:17Speaker 9: cancerous after the Senate was turned into a bunch of
- 51:21Speaker 9: super legislators. And what is the most disheartening in all
- 51:31Speaker 9: of this is you have an entire body of people,
- 51:34Speaker 9: and to be fair, part of it is also and
- 51:37Speaker 9: it goes back to them being popularly elected. These are
- 51:41Speaker 9: senators who don't break from their party. John Fetterman is
- 51:45Speaker 9: such a weird doc because he breaks from his party.
- 51:49Speaker 9: Republicans do it all the time. You Lisa Murkowski, you
- 51:53Speaker 9: got Ryan Paul, You've got various directions of Republicans abandoning
- 51:57Speaker 9: ship all over the place. But Democrats never do that
- 52:04Speaker 9: because they're Marxists. This is the pullet bureau mentality. So
- 52:12Speaker 9: there's another corruption that's caused the filibuster.
- 52:15Speaker 15: To be.
- 52:18Speaker 9: A weapon that was unintended in its formation. So there's
- 52:24Speaker 9: plenty of reason, good reason to look at the filibuster
- 52:27Speaker 9: and say why are we allowing this thing to hijack
- 52:31Speaker 9: the country? And John Thune a huge supporter, don't confuse
- 52:41Speaker 9: him for being an opponent of the Save Act, like
- 52:44Speaker 9: Lisa Murkowski is an opponent of the Save Act and
- 52:48Speaker 9: the change of the format.
- 52:51Speaker 25: You know, it's true, difficult times have a way of
- 52:53Speaker 25: focusing us. We have to think about what matters most
- 52:57Speaker 25: when it comes to our spending our healthcare. This is
- 52:59Speaker 25: why so many people are joining meta share right now.
- 53:03Speaker 25: Metashare is a trusted way to save up to fifty
- 53:06Speaker 25: percent on your monthly healthcare costs. More than four hundred
- 53:09Speaker 25: thousand people have already made the switch. It's pretty obvious
- 53:12Speaker 25: why too, Especially now during this challenging season with health
- 53:16Speaker 25: care costs and out of pocket expenses going up. Metas
- 53:19Speaker 25: Share can save you a lot of money. The typical
- 53:22Speaker 25: family saves five hundred dollars a month. Meda Share works too.
- 53:26Speaker 25: It's been around for thirty years. Members have shared more
- 53:28Speaker 25: than five billion dollars of each other's bills. There are
- 53:31Speaker 25: different options to choose from to fit your budget. I'll
- 53:34Speaker 25: give you the number here in a second, and if
- 53:35Speaker 25: you call, you can get a price within two minutes.
- 53:38Speaker 25: Maybe now is the perfect time to make the switch
- 53:41Speaker 25: and start saving. Here you go call eight five five
- 53:44Speaker 25: Share forty. That's eight five five shre forty. Eight five
- 53:49Speaker 25: five Share forty
