0:10
Speaker 1: know the first thing today, Jewort.
0:13

0:18

Speaker 2: All the jasure needs.
0:28
Speaker 6: No one that Joe's smiled.
0:30
Speaker 5: He only aggs.
0:34
Speaker 2: Let me be Joe, thank you for letting me be
0:38
Speaker 2: here this morning. I am grateful. You are one of
0:43
Speaker 2: the many great blessings that I give thanks for. And
0:46
Speaker 2: I know that sounds creepy in a lot of ways.
0:49
Speaker 2: Unfortunately in the post woke world, you can't say anything
0:53
Speaker 2: nice about anyone of that triggering someone. Luckily we don't care.
1:00
Speaker 2: And on this Thanksgiving morning, we're supposed to be here
1:05
Speaker 2: talking about the way your house smells like rosemary right now,
1:11
Speaker 2: or things that you know, maybe even non traditional stuff,
1:14
Speaker 2: maybe your family makes lasagna for things, or whatever it is.
1:18
Speaker 2: However it is that you grab people that mean a
1:20
Speaker 2: lot to you and say thanks. And this act of
1:25
Speaker 2: terror jumps in front of our train, and you know,
1:31
Speaker 2: we'll break down. All the news of the day. There
1:33
Speaker 2: is plenty of news today. I think they knew, Hey,
1:37
Speaker 2: it's Thanksgiving. What if we do a lot of stuff
1:40
Speaker 2: and like dismiss the election fraud case, no one will
1:45
Speaker 2: talk about it. All the talk radio shows have fill
1:49
Speaker 2: ins and best ofs. I mean, the fill ins are
1:51
Speaker 2: fine because they'll cover the news of the day, and
1:55
Speaker 2: I may be one of them. I think there's half
1:58
Speaker 2: a dozen or so staateations that pick us up when
2:02
Speaker 2: the regular folks are off in the morning, and that's fine.
2:05
Speaker 2: You know, hey, Ears is Ears. We have a god
2:09
Speaker 2: given right to speak. We don't have a god given
2:12
Speaker 2: right to be listened to. So we have to be
2:13
Speaker 2: talking about the things that people need to know as
2:17
Speaker 2: they head into this Thanksgiving And some of the details
2:21
Speaker 2: out of this shooting of some National Guards troops from
2:25
Speaker 2: West Virginia outside of the Capitol in Washington, DC are
2:29
Speaker 2: earth shaking, and it's do we have the clip of
2:35
Speaker 2: the guy from ms NOW that's the rebranded MSNBC. By
2:40
Speaker 2: the way, if you missed the if you missed the meeting,
2:43
Speaker 2: So this guy uh less inclined to give this guy's
2:48
Speaker 2: name out than I am the guy who did the shooting,
2:50
Speaker 2: even but this guy ms NOW was live breaking and
2:56
Speaker 2: it's not easy. And somebody says, get on the set
2:59
Speaker 2: and start talking. We have this and you don't know
3:02
Speaker 2: ninety percent of what you feel like you should know
3:04
Speaker 2: before the before the program begins. So there's there's some
3:10
Speaker 2: of that. I might give the guy a hall pass.
3:14
Speaker 2: But this, this reporter went the ilhan Omar, some people
3:21
Speaker 2: did some things. Listen to it.
3:23
Speaker 7: You don't know people walking around with uniforms in an
3:29
Speaker 7: American city. There are some Americans that might object to that,
3:32
Speaker 7: and so apparently this shooting has happened.
3:36
Speaker 2: Apparently this shooting has happened. There are people people who
3:40
Speaker 2: don't like people with uniforms walking around their city. Some
3:48
Speaker 2: things were done by some people somewhere, and some of
3:54
Speaker 2: the details and culpabilities in this are stunning and they're
3:58
Speaker 2: not rumor speculations. So let's get our first things fired
4:02
Speaker 2: up here on this Thanksgiving morning. No, this is live,
4:07
Speaker 2: this is not memorys. The two West Virginia National guardsmen
4:13
Speaker 2: are in critical condition but in hospital. The governor Morrissey
4:19
Speaker 2: had tweeted yesterday that they had been killed in the shooting,
4:23
Speaker 2: but they are in critical condition. Twenty nine year old
4:26
Speaker 2: Ramu La La kanwal I hope, I'm mispronouncing that sufficiently.
4:31
Speaker 2: He's the Afghan national accused of shooting the two National guardsmen.
4:36
Speaker 2: Was an ally of the United States, actually in the
4:39
Speaker 2: United States because of the operation Allies welcome try to
4:43
Speaker 2: make good on the horrific abandonment of Afghan army base
4:50
Speaker 2: and the country. He had been working with various US
4:55
Speaker 2: government agencies in Afghanistan, including the Central Intelligence Agency. That
5:01
Speaker 2: comes from the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, John Ratcliffe,
5:08
Speaker 2: who told Fox News in the wake of the disastrous
5:11
Speaker 2: Biden withdrawal from Afghanistan, the administration justified bringing this alleged
5:16
Speaker 2: shooter to the United States due to his prior work
5:19
Speaker 2: with the US government, including the CIA in Kandahire frightening
5:27
Speaker 2: side story that's adjunct to it, The US Department of
5:31
Speaker 2: Homeland Security has arrested a high school assistant principal from
5:35
Speaker 2: Virginia for plotting to shoot ICE agents and even beginning
5:40
Speaker 2: a flight to Las Vegas to pick up explosive rounds
5:44
Speaker 2: for the assaults they were going to conduct against ICE
5:47
Speaker 2: agents in the Norfolk area, Georgia judge on Wednesday morning
5:52
Speaker 2: dismissed the election interference case against President Donald Trump in
5:57
Speaker 2: a one page order issued just before everyone went home
6:01
Speaker 2: for Thanksgiving, Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee dismissed the racketeering
6:05
Speaker 2: case first brought by Fulton County District Attorney Fannie Willis. Meanwhile,
6:11
Speaker 2: federal Appeals court upheld a one million dollar penalty against
6:15
Speaker 2: President Trump and his lawyer Elena Habbah for filing a
6:20
Speaker 2: frivolous lawsuit against Hillary Clinton, James Commey, and others. The
6:24
Speaker 2: Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals found that the twenty twenty
6:27
Speaker 2: two suit violated federal court rules with tenuous links between
6:33
Speaker 2: a myriad of defendants. West Virginia judge ruled Wednesday parents
6:38
Speaker 2: can use religious beliefs to opt out of school vaccine requirements.
6:43
Speaker 2: And Apple's smartphone might be the number one smartphone in
6:47
Speaker 2: America for the first time since two thousand and eleven.
6:51
Speaker 2: And those are some of our first things here on
6:54
Speaker 2: the talk media Network. Thank you for joining us in
6:57
Speaker 2: Happy Thanksgiving.
7:01
Speaker 8: You know it's true, difficult times have a way of
7:03
Speaker 8: focusing us. We have to think about what matters most
7:07
Speaker 8: when it comes to our spending our healthcare. This is
7:09
Speaker 8: why so many people are joining meta share right now.
7:13
Speaker 8: Metas Share is a trusted way to save up to
7:15
Speaker 8: fifty percent on your monthly healthcare costs. More than four
7:19
Speaker 8: hundred thousand people have already made the switch. It's pretty
7:22
Speaker 8: obvious why, especially now during this challenging season with health
7:26
Speaker 8: care costs and out of pocket.
7:27
Speaker 2: Expenses going up.
7:29
Speaker 8: Metas Share can save you a lot of money. The
7:31
Speaker 8: typical family saves five hundred dollars a month. Medashare works too.
7:35
Speaker 8: It's been around for thirty years. Members have shared more
7:38
Speaker 8: than five billion dollars of each other's bills. There are
7:41
Speaker 8: different options to choose from to fit your budget. I'll
7:44
Speaker 8: give you the number here in a second, and if
7:45
Speaker 8: you call, you can get a price within two minutes.
7:48
Speaker 8: Maybe now is the perfect time to make the switch
7:51
Speaker 8: and start saving. Here you go call eight five five
7:54
Speaker 8: share forty. That's eight five five shre forty. Eight five
7:59
Speaker 8: five share.
8:04
Speaker 9: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
8:07
Speaker 9: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
8:13
Speaker 9: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
8:18
Speaker 9: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
8:22
Speaker 9: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
8:26
Speaker 9: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
8:31
Speaker 9: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
8:36
Speaker 9: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
8:42
Speaker 9: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
8:46
Speaker 9: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
8:51
Speaker 9: healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com where

10:04
Speaker 11: I'm not only in alle of their beauty and kindness,
10:06

Speaker 11: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
10:21

10:25
Speaker 11: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
10:29
Speaker 11: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
10:32
Speaker 11: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
10:35
Speaker 11: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
10:38
Speaker 11: from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
10:41
Speaker 11: a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a
10:44

11:13

11:23

13:13
Speaker 3: From Joe Thomas, It's first thing today.
13:16
Speaker 2: Oyster taste Turkey. It started as a hunger.
13:21
Speaker 16: I was young and eric and I was young.
13:23
Speaker 7: Blended by my hunger, I ignored safety.
13:27
Speaker 3: I want a cheap fried turkey.
13:30
Speaker 2: I want to oyster and taste your turkey. You know,
13:32
Speaker 2: we're supposed to be here on this Thanksgiving morning, you know,
13:37
Speaker 2: doing our very best to be the alternative to Arlow
13:41
Speaker 2: Guthries Alice's restaurant Thanksgiving Day massacre, and it's unfortunately the
13:50
Speaker 2: news of the world. And this day proves my point
13:54
Speaker 2: when the folks of the network said, you're going to
13:56
Speaker 2: be live today and the only code is all I
13:59
Speaker 2: put into my decision to be live today, which we
14:02
Speaker 2: often are and have been on our flagship station for
14:06
Speaker 2: decades really and well my flagship station that I own,
14:10
Speaker 2: and then the one that I can't mention anymore or less,
14:13
Speaker 2: they drag me back in the court. I feel so
14:16
Speaker 2: akin to David Letterman after that. I was like, you
14:19
Speaker 2: can't mention anything that happened between two thousand and seven
14:23
Speaker 2: and twenty twenty three. You can't even mention twenty two
14:27
Speaker 2: thousand and eight. You were just missing. It's goofy there.
14:34
Speaker 2: But we and the only provision I put out, I said,
14:42
Speaker 2: were the staff Abraham back at the head network at
14:49
Speaker 2: the business end of what I refer to as the
14:51
Speaker 2: mump for Tee firefly suck it from the sky down
14:54
Speaker 2: Lake antenna. I said, please, if you're going to drag
14:58
Speaker 2: somebody into be It work headquarters just because I'm going
15:03
Speaker 2: to be live. Let's figure out something else. I don't
15:06
Speaker 2: want to be that guy that makes somebody miss their
15:09
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving because I'm too busy doing other stuff to put
15:15
Speaker 2: together a recording of best of stuff. But my true belief,
15:19
Speaker 2: aside from the fact that it is actually more work
15:22
Speaker 2: to put together some recording of best of things, because
15:26
Speaker 2: you know, we post everything online and everything from yesterday's
15:31
Speaker 2: show is up there. Go to Joe Thomas in the
15:33
Speaker 2: Morning dot com. You'll see a handy link of all
15:37
Speaker 2: the places where we distribute the podcast. So if you
15:40
Speaker 2: subscribe and they're all different ones, you know people I
15:43
Speaker 2: don't like ihired, I get it. They fired me too. Apple.
15:51
Speaker 2: I see that the iPhone seventeen is going to move
15:55
Speaker 2: Apple into the pre eminent spot in the smartphone market
15:58
Speaker 2: for the first time since twenty eleven. That really struck
16:02
Speaker 2: me as an odd story because easily sixty to seventy percent,
16:07
Speaker 2: depending on the week of our podcast downloads from wherever
16:12
Speaker 2: they are on Apple smartphones. And I see the statistics.
16:18
Speaker 2: Trust me, I don't see who you are. I don't
16:20
Speaker 2: have NSA C clearance. To see who you are. But
16:23
Speaker 2: my metadata says that most of my podcast downloads happen
16:28
Speaker 2: on Apple platforms and on smartphones. I do the math
16:32
Speaker 2: and I figure that out, so you can go to
16:35
Speaker 2: Apple Podcasts and get it as well. But I don't
16:38
Speaker 2: spend a lot of time going through it. So when
16:40
Speaker 2: somebody says, hey, let's do a best of show, I'm like,
16:43
Speaker 2: do we have a staff of like ten or twenty
16:45
Speaker 2: people to go search the archives? I know I could
16:49
Speaker 2: probably set AI to do it, but who knows what
16:53
Speaker 2: I'd get then. But the news out of DC and
16:58
Speaker 2: this shooting that went on where the guy just runs
17:01
Speaker 2: up and shoots to National Guards troops and then it
17:04
Speaker 2: turns out that the guy worked for US as an
17:08
Speaker 2: intel operative for the CIA in Afghanistan during the Biden administration.
17:16
Speaker 2: You know how bad would I feel having a recorded
17:20
Speaker 2: program and not here to kind of break all this
17:23
Speaker 2: down for you. You're getting up, you're defrosting something. And
17:26
Speaker 2: by the way, Alton Brown one of my favorite of
17:30
Speaker 2: the people who do food on video. Food to Video
17:34
Speaker 2: Alton Brown is really my go to and my families
17:37
Speaker 2: as well, although there's that kid that does the nineteen
17:41
Speaker 2: thirties he finds recipes from the nineteen tens and recreates
17:47
Speaker 2: them and stuff. He's fun to watch. I forget his name,
17:50
Speaker 2: but Alton Brown has a whole thing about getting your
17:54
Speaker 2: turkey into brine. I don't know if this morning you
17:57
Speaker 2: have enough time to but I guess if you get
17:59
Speaker 2: war warm brine water or maybe room temperature and you
18:03
Speaker 2: get your turkey in it, it will suck the freezer
18:06
Speaker 2: out of it without damaging it. So you know, good
18:09
Speaker 2: luck on that. And please, as God as my witness,
18:12
Speaker 2: don't put a frozen turkey into a deep fryer. I mean,
18:18
Speaker 2: you know, faster than you can say William Shatner in
18:20
Speaker 2: State Farm, which is, by the way, where that song
18:23
Speaker 2: comes from. That pumper music we use every year around
18:27
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving is one of the worst, most dangerous things, and
18:31
Speaker 2: more fire departments respond to more fires on Thanksgiving because
18:35
Speaker 2: somebody put a frozen turkey into a deep fryer, or
18:39
Speaker 2: they overfilled the deep fryer and it spills over onto
18:44
Speaker 2: the propane burner and it's oil, and it's a propane burner,
18:47
Speaker 2: and it's not the kind of fire that goes out.
18:56
Speaker 2: You can't just spray water on it and get it
18:58
Speaker 2: to go out. You need to have special fires suppression
19:00
Speaker 2: gear for an oil fire like that, so those two
19:05
Speaker 2: things don't overfill your deep fryer. Put it in your
19:10
Speaker 2: driveway away from your house so you don't have to
19:15
Speaker 2: call your local volunteer fire department to come and enjoy
19:19
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving afternoon with you. That puts a damper on the
19:22
Speaker 2: get together. But this issue with the Afghan who is
19:30
Speaker 2: in custody, so I'm sure, just like we do with Butler,
19:34
Speaker 2: Pennsylvania will know. I'm amazed. And this is one of
19:41
Speaker 2: the things you don't like to be a conspiracy theorist.
19:44
Speaker 2: You'd like to be a conspiracy analyst. And the fact
19:49
Speaker 2: that the guy was a CIA asset in Afghan in
19:57
Speaker 2: Kandahar and worked for the administration's CIA, and we know
20:04
Speaker 2: that almost immediately. Yet how a teenager can get under
20:11
Speaker 2: the roof of a building where a president of the
20:14
Speaker 2: United States is speaking and take a shot, you know,
20:18
Speaker 2: it's almost as hard to believe that some actor can
20:22
Speaker 2: walk out from you know, the stage presentation he's supposed
20:26
Speaker 2: to be part of, and walk up all the way
20:29
Speaker 2: to the balcony and just open a door and shoot
20:31
Speaker 2: a president in the head. But it's going to be
20:38
Speaker 2: important for you and me today to make sure that
20:42
Speaker 2: we take pause and give blessings and say a prayer
20:45
Speaker 2: for the families of the two National Guard troops that
20:49
Speaker 2: are you know, clinging to life right now in the

Speaker 2: see all the well he was triggered because this is
21:34
Speaker 2: what his home looked like and he didn't want his
21:37
Speaker 2: new country to become like his old country. It'll be
21:40
Speaker 2: all the you I can hear Mark Kelly on X
21:44
Speaker 2: right now. Or Lee Slotkin. Let's ask Elise Slotkin, she
21:49
Speaker 2: was in the CIA. Or Abigail Spanberger, let's ask them
21:52
Speaker 2: what this guy was doing for us in Kandahar. That's
21:56
Speaker 2: that's made him so angry at the National Guard this morning.

24:07

24:12
Speaker 9: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
24:18

24:22

24:26

24:31
Speaker 9: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
24:36
Speaker 9: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
24:42

28:27
Speaker 2: I know, I it's they're already warning apparently, you know.
28:31
Speaker 2: The scammers are out there, uh and just trying to
28:34
Speaker 2: get their theft on. They're just they're just poor Russian
28:40
Speaker 2: bought scammers out there telling you that they've got something,
28:45
Speaker 2: some toy, some Sega Genesis console.
28:48
Speaker 19: For Oh it's amazing, it's only twenty dollars cheaper than Timuh.

Speaker 2: I mean in the Turkey, and you're like, let me
29:08
Speaker 2: see if I can get the little Christmas shopping done early,
29:11
Speaker 2: and everybody, we're all pushing the envelopes on this. It
29:15
Speaker 2: got nutty there about ten years ago when you'd get
29:21
Speaker 2: you know, Walmart would be open today just to give
29:25
Speaker 2: people while they were waiting for everyone to arrive, a
29:28
Speaker 2: chance to come and look for toys and gifts for
29:31
Speaker 2: Christmas and whatever. Holy moly, nice, that's you know, perspective here.
29:40
Speaker 2: And you know, I've always been of the mind, although
29:45
Speaker 2: I'm not always of the practice that rushing to judgment
29:49
Speaker 2: is never a really good way to do things. But
29:52
Speaker 2: apparently reading a report, scammers are online like crazy right now,
29:57
Speaker 2: getting your personal information, getting you to send them gift
30:01
Speaker 2: cards to pay for things. I'm sad. I feel bad
30:06
Speaker 2: because obviously, if it's happened frequently enough for somebody to say, hey,
30:11
Speaker 2: if somebody is selling something online, then they want you
30:14
Speaker 2: to buy a prepaid gift card and mail it to them,
30:18
Speaker 2: probably not legit, and I guess, you know, we have
30:23
Speaker 2: to get a grasp on it. With running my own business,
30:27
Speaker 2: I have, you know, a Venmo account and things like that. No,
30:31
Speaker 2: and I know the jokes about you have a Venmo account.
30:34
Speaker 2: What kind of things are you selling, Joe, because apparently
30:37
Speaker 2: there's a criminal element that likes to use Venmo. Who
30:41
Speaker 2: knew PayPal? And you know, I still every time I
30:45
Speaker 2: use PayPal, I'm thinking of Elon Musk and what that's
30:51
Speaker 2: where his money comes from. No, and I don't mean,
30:55
Speaker 2: I don't mean Elon Musk gets money through PayPal. He
30:58
Speaker 2: invented PayPal? What I thought he invented Tesla? Well, all right,
31:04
Speaker 2: after the fact, he invented Tesla and the Tesla car
31:09
Speaker 2: and the Tesla phone and the Yeah, it's almost becoming
31:13
Speaker 2: like Spaceballs. It's Tesla, the lunch pail, It's Tesla, the

31:30
Speaker 2: being live today. Kareem. He said to Alton Brown, who
31:34
Speaker 2: we were just mentioning talking about his tips on Brian.
31:37
Speaker 2: Apparently salt water is good for thawing your bird out.
31:41
Speaker 2: I don't know if this is too too much last
31:43
Speaker 2: minute for that, I don't know, but he texted me
31:46
Speaker 2: Alton Brown is a pro second amendment. Okay, I just
31:51
Speaker 2: think he's funnier than anything. He's he's the best TV
31:56
Speaker 2: food hosts since Graham Care Stop Galloping and and I've
32:04
Speaker 2: actually had a chance to meet Graham. I did a
32:06
Speaker 2: whole radio show with Graham Care and his wife Trina.
32:11
Speaker 2: They had he had Trina had had some massive heart issues,
32:16
Speaker 2: and he, you know, was if you if you go
32:19
Speaker 2: back in the archives, if you're old enough to remember
32:21
Speaker 2: the heyday of television food shows before the television Food
32:25
Speaker 2: Network existed, there was Julia Child obviously, and Graham Care,
32:31
Speaker 2: the galloping gurmet, and everything he made was covered in
32:35
Speaker 2: cream sauce. It was a he was specifically, you know,
32:38
Speaker 2: a keyed in on French style because everything had a
32:41
Speaker 2: cream sauce. Every some sort of cream sauce, and you know,
32:47
Speaker 2: it was a it was a fun show to watch
32:49
Speaker 2: you grab a glass of wine and pull somebody out
32:51
Speaker 2: of the audience to eat the food with him that
32:54
Speaker 2: they had made. It was kind of it was. It
32:55
Speaker 2: was good television. It was well done. And Alton Brown,
32:59
Speaker 2: who his degree isn't in anything culinary. His degree is
33:04
Speaker 2: in television production, I believe from Georgia Tech. I know
33:09
Speaker 2: he's an Atlanta guy now, but that's good to know
33:12
Speaker 2: he's pro Second Amendment. I feel better liking him. I
33:15
Speaker 2: wouldn't have changed if you told me that he was,
33:17
Speaker 2: you know, a Joe Biden supporter. I'd still say he
33:19
Speaker 2: does a decent show about cooking. I can't be that
33:23
Speaker 2: guy who just you know, I still watch Mel Gibson movies.
33:28
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, don't judge me. I'll put The Patriot on
33:32
Speaker 2: and my wife will see me watching it, and so
33:34
Speaker 2: I can't watch him anymore. I understand that. I understand
33:38
Speaker 2: what you're saying about, you know, the whole the Jews
33:41
Speaker 2: did it all, and I get it. But I can
33:43
Speaker 2: separate the actors. I rue the modern world. I wistfully
33:49
Speaker 2: wish back to the days when we didn't know a
33:51
Speaker 2: damn thing about the actors who were performing our stories
33:55
Speaker 2: for us. You know, what a day to be. Humphrey
33:59
Speaker 2: Bogart is still wondering, how is it you know, we
34:02
Speaker 2: don't know more about guys like Humphrey Bogart and and
34:06
Speaker 2: Lauren Bacall and all this. It was a pretty good security,
34:10
Speaker 2: probably better security than the US government had at the time.
34:14
Speaker 2: What was the there's a the Cohen Brothers did a
34:17
Speaker 2: movie kind of about how the actors' reputations were covered.
34:22
Speaker 2: Channing Tatum was in it. Yeah, Clooney, it was a
34:25
Speaker 2: Hail Caesar. Hail Caesar is a funny movie. And again
34:29
Speaker 2: I don't agree with George Clooney, you know, past a heartbeat.
34:33
Speaker 2: I wouldn't mind meeting him and asking him why he's
34:36
Speaker 2: you know, falling and hit his head and you know,
34:38
Speaker 2: so crazy. But it's probably the guilt of being wealthy
34:41
Speaker 2: and not knowing why. Most people who are wealthy in
34:45
Speaker 2: the media have this a massive guilt trip about being
34:49
Speaker 2: wealthy and they don't know why because actors, Yeah, it's
34:53
Speaker 2: a sure George Clooney's good looking. So it's Julia Roberts.
34:57
Speaker 2: I've always had a thing for Julia Roberts. And maybe
34:59
Speaker 2: this is, you know, too much information. But as we
35:02
Speaker 2: start to peel apart this case on this live Thanksgiving
35:06
Speaker 2: morning of this Afghan who shot to National Guards troops
35:14
Speaker 2: outside of the Capitol in d C after working for
35:18
Speaker 2: the CIA, and this is going to be a key
35:21
Speaker 2: because if John Ratcliffe is on TV already telling us,
35:26
Speaker 2: well he worked for the Biden SA something's coming with this.
35:30
Speaker 2: Something is coming with this there and or they're getting
35:35
Speaker 2: out ahead of the left and the Mark Kellys of
35:38
Speaker 2: the world, who are going to try to say, well,
35:42
Speaker 2: this is because Trump has turned Washington, d C. Into Candahar.
35:46
Speaker 2: And the guy was triggered and he had a psychotic
35:50
Speaker 2: break because Washington, DC was starting to somehow look like
35:55
Speaker 2: Candahar and he couldn't you know, he snapped. He had
35:57
Speaker 2: to do something to try to fix that. It's like this,
36:01
Speaker 2: a ms NOW reporters said, you.
36:04
Speaker 7: Don't know people walking around with uniforms in an American city.
36:10
Speaker 7: There are some Americans that might object to that. And
36:13
Speaker 7: so apparently this shooting has happened.
36:16
Speaker 2: Yeah, apparently this shooting has happened. Let me get to
36:19
Speaker 2: you at four three, four eight eight two four two
36:22
Speaker 2: one seven. Happy Thanksgiving. You're on the air with Joe Thomas.

41:02
Speaker 12: Of course, neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly,
41:07
Speaker 12: type two diabetes, heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a
41:10
Speaker 12: million people a year. Even sadder, most of these deaths
41:14
Speaker 12: are preventable with a few lifestyle changes, including regular activity,
41:18
Speaker 12: healthier eating, and not smoking. Talk to your doctor about
41:23
Speaker 12: your risk for type two diabetes and heart disease, and
41:26
Speaker 12: if your doctor recommends lifestyle changes or medication, listen. The
41:30
Speaker 12: reason so many die is because not enough are willing
41:34
Speaker 12: to change. You can stop it, starting right now. It's

Speaker 21: Intelligence, smallbod not tomb stage.
44:34
Speaker 15: Chairs, weird tell me.
44:43
Speaker 2: Alicia Witt TV star pop music icon. They call it
44:50
Speaker 2: alternative pop. And she's got a new record out. It's
44:55
Speaker 2: called I Think I'm Spending Christmas with You, which sounds
44:59
Speaker 2: like Christmas and the foster care industry. But we're going
45:02
Speaker 2: to talk to her about it. She's going to visit
45:04
Speaker 2: with us out. I think you first saw her in
45:07
Speaker 2: Dune if you made it through all the way through
45:09
Speaker 2: Dune there and since then just tons of stuff. But
45:14
Speaker 2: Joel was hanging on the phone with us left us
45:16
Speaker 2: with one of those pleasant thoughts of how little that
45:19
Speaker 2: gets shipped into this country actually gets searched or anything. Joel,
45:23
Speaker 2: You know, so I don't know where you were going
45:25
Speaker 2: with that, but certainly you were jumping off on the
45:27
Speaker 2: story of this Afghan who was a CIA asset in
45:33
Speaker 2: Kandahar that is now arrested in charged with shooting these
45:38
Speaker 2: two National Guards troops. So finish where you were going
45:41
Speaker 2: with it. You said he had a couple of points
45:43
Speaker 2: to make right.
45:44
Speaker 16: My collective thoughts on this and this will all go together.
45:48
Speaker 16: So we don't have TSA for bus bus rides, we
45:52
Speaker 16: don't have TSA for training, and don't they don't really
45:57
Speaker 16: know who's on these extended v us and a lot
46:02
Speaker 16: of times where people are living. I'm not saying everybody should,
46:06
Speaker 16: you know, have the magnify, But if you're in here
46:09
Speaker 16: and you're you're trying to gain citizenship, you may have
46:12
Speaker 16: a legal visa, but how many visas.
46:14
Speaker 2: Are expired too.
46:15
Speaker 16: But as you said, this was an operative that they
46:18
Speaker 16: used in Afghanistan. I think and worked with worked with
46:24
Speaker 16: the US government. But my point is is that I
46:29
Speaker 16: think that as far as security, there's a lot of
46:33
Speaker 16: holes in the security in the United States and and
46:39
Speaker 16: a lot of these countries that and I'm saying with mail,
46:43
Speaker 16: with cargo, with bus, with travel, and there's also a
46:49
Speaker 16: lot of security measures that they contract people in a
46:52
Speaker 16: bad way, you know, like when you're in your car
46:55
Speaker 16: and there's and there's all these things that license plate
46:58
Speaker 16: readers and and all that. But where it seems like
47:03
Speaker 16: the most basic thing that we need as far as
47:06
Speaker 16: people who are foreign, foreign nationals or foreign born coming in.
47:11
Speaker 16: We know it's a country of immigrants, but we need
47:15
Speaker 16: to know that they're vetted and is a vetting process
47:18
Speaker 16: even proper? I mean, look at California with truckers.
47:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's it's amazing.
47:24
Speaker 16: But I'm just saying, you know, you can say, well
47:26
Speaker 16: they got vetted through our state or but and now,
47:30
Speaker 16: now look what what's the license the secure license that.
47:34
Speaker 2: I've had that for years? Real idea.
47:36
Speaker 16: Now, now if you don't even have that, you can
47:38
Speaker 16: pay an extra eighteen dollars to get on a plane.
47:41
Speaker 2: Does that prove your you're safe? Yeah, that's just so
47:44
Speaker 2: it's such a lie, it's such a bait. And switch there,
47:49
Speaker 2: and it's all it's a dog and pony show to
47:52
Speaker 2: make you think things are going on, and then when
47:54
Speaker 2: it isn't, they're like, oh, we never said that, and
47:56
Speaker 2: they all try to play forked tongue word games. But
48:01
Speaker 2: you know the thing about you know, security, and this
48:05
Speaker 2: goes back to you know, d C being one of
48:08
Speaker 2: the great gun free zones. I mean, these soldiers were
48:11
Speaker 2: disarmed because Muriel Bowser wouldn't let them. You know, these
48:15
Speaker 2: are National Guards troops, these folks supposedly not how to
48:18
Speaker 2: use firearms better than anyone else, yet they were left
48:22
Speaker 2: unprotected like so many other people in Washington, d C.
48:26
Speaker 2: To the criminal element with firearms. And and the year
48:31
Speaker 2: after year, we dumbed down our society's inclination to defend
48:36
Speaker 2: itself through you know, all the different authoritarian nonsense and
48:41
Speaker 2: psychobabble of we will you know, protect you and all
48:46
Speaker 2: this stuff that is just patently a lie. And and
48:50
Speaker 2: so we wind up in a city that's just sheep
48:53
Speaker 2: waiting for the wolf to come in and start slaughtering them.
48:57
Speaker 2: And we see it time and time again in these cities.
49:00
Speaker 2: Nobody gets up and does anything, and it's just like
49:02
Speaker 2: the shooting in France the Bataclan, the nightclub, famous nightclub
49:08
Speaker 2: of all the big eas have played there. And there
49:10
Speaker 2: was a show going on and the guys go break
49:13
Speaker 2: in and start shooting because they had illegal guns, because
49:16
Speaker 2: it was France. And people got up and started hitting
49:20
Speaker 2: them with chairs and chasing them down even though they
49:23
Speaker 2: had guns. And that's bravery. And that's what we used
49:27
Speaker 2: to be about in this country is see something. Do something.
49:30
Speaker 2: If you see somebody walking up to somebody with a gun,
49:33
Speaker 2: stop them, you know, do something, you know, draw attention
49:38
Speaker 2: to it. Call the guys say hey, careful, the guy's
49:40
Speaker 2: coming after you with a gun. But we've grown so
49:43
Speaker 2: disinterested in that, or we're afraid for our own safety
49:46
Speaker 2: or whatever, that we shrug about this stuff when it
49:51
Speaker 2: happens right in front of us.
49:53
Speaker 16: The Florida legislature, Joe is trying to pass a no
49:57
Speaker 16: smoking band, but they're gonna people to people who smoke cigars.
50:02
Speaker 16: It's okay, but you can't smoke cigarettes, you can't smoke
50:06
Speaker 16: your medical marijuana, you can't even vape. But they're gonna
50:09
Speaker 16: so so you know, we talked about the Democrats, but
50:13
Speaker 16: the Republicans do stupid things too, because we have a
50:17
Speaker 16: we have a House, a and a senate, state Senate,
50:19
Speaker 16: and a governor that's all Republican. I think there's like
50:23
Speaker 16: minimal amount a percentage of Democrats. And look at Virginia. Right,
50:28
Speaker 16: I'm saying, do I have to do things that I know?
50:32
Speaker 16: But but I'm just saying, you know, it depends who
50:35
Speaker 16: who the law and what what the procedures, who it's
50:38
Speaker 16: going to benefit. But we have to think of all Americans, not.
50:41
Speaker 2: Just yeah no. And that's the thing, and that's what
50:44
Speaker 2: they want us divided, uh so that they don't realize
50:48
Speaker 2: that you know, most of us get the common sense
50:51
Speaker 2: of it all. Just just like the story you mentioned Virginia. Well,
50:53
Speaker 2: look at this story that I'm sure was not in
50:56
Speaker 2: the pipeline before, but I saw it. Yesterday afternoon they
51:01
Speaker 2: arrested an assistant principal from a Norfolk area school, I
51:06
Speaker 2: think it was a high school. Let me checked the
51:08
Speaker 2: story here, you know, for plotting to shoot ice agents.
51:13
Speaker 2: And you know this is an assistant principal m Is
51:16
Speaker 2: High School Kempsville High School in the Norfolk area. This
51:19
Speaker 2: assistant principal and his brother were traveling to Las Vegas
51:24
Speaker 2: to get explosive cop killer rounds to kill ice officers.
51:30
Speaker 2: And this is somebody you give your kids to and
51:33
Speaker 2: it's supposed to be, you know, protecting them and raising them.
51:36
Speaker 2: And then you want us to believe you when you say, oh, well,
51:40
Speaker 2: our teachers are not indoctrinating or anything. This guy was
51:43
Speaker 2: going to kill ice agents.
51:46
Speaker 16: Yeah, what a stupid place to be talking in the
51:48
Speaker 16: diner in Virginia, because not only do you have Secret Service,
51:52
Speaker 16: you have FBI, and you have all other kinds of
51:55
Speaker 16: national security there. And they played right into their hands.
51:59
Speaker 2: Well yeah, in norfol which is one of the biggest
52:01
Speaker 2: military towns in America, it's like, gee, we didn't know
52:04
Speaker 2: there was an NSA agent sitting next to us, and
52:07
Speaker 2: you know, come on, people, But I mean, so intelligence
52:11
Speaker 2: apparently isn't a prerequisite to get a job as an
52:13
Speaker 2: assistant principal in the Norfolk area. But Joel, good stuff,
52:17
Speaker 2: my friend, hang in there, have a good thanksgiving. Understand
52:21
Speaker 2: that you're a blessing to people as well. And I'm
52:25
Speaker 2: sure there are people who don't know your name but
52:27
Speaker 2: are alive today because of your ministrations as a nurse
52:32
Speaker 2: for them. So you know, count on some of those
52:34
Speaker 2: things and things will turn around. Thank you. Every day

52:54
