Speaker 1: Fifty on fifty five KRC, the talk station five O
0:14
Speaker 1: five A fifty five KRC, the talk station. Friday Eves,
0:22
Speaker 1: end of my work week.
0:24
Speaker 2: Some say.
0:34
Speaker 1: Vacation, and that's the way the news goes. That is
0:39
Speaker 1: the way the news goes. Brian Thomas right here, and
0:41
Speaker 1: I am glad to be last day of the week,
0:43
Speaker 1: taking tomorrow off because we've got those wedding preparations going up.
0:46
Speaker 1: So my daughter's getting married on Saturday. So Gary Jeff Walker,
0:48
Speaker 1: thank you for covering for me tomorrow and the fifty
0:51
Speaker 1: five Carson Morning. So I'm still still do tech Friday
0:54
Speaker 1: with Dave Hatter. That's important in appointment listening and what
0:58
Speaker 1: is coming up appointment listening coming up at seven five
1:00
Speaker 1: the return of Signal ninety nine. Facebook is very fine,
1:04
Speaker 1: Signal ninety nine and sort of the figurehead of the
1:07
Speaker 1: collective of individuals behind the scenes with all the real information.
1:11
Speaker 1: She'll be joining the program to talk about the violence
1:14
Speaker 1: downtown Cincinnati. We will sort of discuss maybe juvenile court.
1:19
Speaker 1: Just Judge bloom says Judge Blooms Karma on the Rundown.
1:25
Speaker 1: I was shocked to learn from FOP President Kenkober the
1:28
Speaker 1: other day podcast at fifty five KC dot com. The
1:31
Speaker 1: juvenile courts are not accepting even the juveniles that police
1:37
Speaker 1: pick up with outstanding warrants. I'm still struggling to comprehend
1:40
Speaker 1: how that is and how that can possibly be. That's
1:43
Speaker 1: the job of the juvenile court system. You got someone
1:45
Speaker 1: with an outstanding warrant, the police are supposed to pick
1:47
Speaker 1: them up, and yet you can't take them anywhere. Of course,
1:52
Speaker 1: the curfew centers aren't being used either. I'm sure Signal
1:54
Speaker 1: ninety nine has a common or two about that. Plus
1:57
Speaker 1: the village of Atavia. You heard the top of the
1:58
Speaker 1: air news some issues one on there. So that is
2:02
Speaker 1: what we'll do. In the seven o'clock hour, Congressman Warren
2:04
Speaker 1: Davidson returns. He'll be on at eight ZHO five.
2:07
Speaker 3: Is the war over?
2:09
Speaker 1: Is that your question? Joe? On again, off again. We
2:13
Speaker 1: have the twenty fourth century Road to Housing Act, which
2:18
Speaker 1: passed overwhelmingly. I mean it is you'd say what you
2:20
Speaker 1: want about the bill and whether or not it's worthy. Oh,
2:22
Speaker 1: it also bans crypt a US cryptocurrency for five years.
2:26
Speaker 1: I think it's five years anyway, a pause on that,
2:28
Speaker 1: so there will be no central bank cryptocurrency that's part
2:31
Speaker 1: of the Housing Act bill, but Trump's not going to
2:34
Speaker 1: sign it. I mean, it was the most bipartisan effort
2:39
Speaker 1: I think in my recent memory, well except for release
2:43
Speaker 1: of the Epstein files, right, that was all but like
2:45
Speaker 1: two votes for that one. But yeah, it's hundreds of Overwhelmingly,
2:50
Speaker 1: I think only like forty people voted against this Housing Act,
2:53
Speaker 1: and Donald Trump says, I'm not going to sign it
2:55
Speaker 1: until you get the Save Act. The problem is the Senate,
2:59
Speaker 1: where there are apparently not enough votes in the Senate
3:01
Speaker 1: to pass it. That seems to me to be the struggle.
3:03
Speaker 1: I don't know if Donald Trump has got some other
3:07
Speaker 1: information which suggests maybe that he can convince some holdout
3:10
Speaker 1: senators to give him the sixty votes he ultimately needs
3:12
Speaker 1: for that, but I don't know where they're going to
3:14
Speaker 1: come from. Maybe he just wants it advanced just to
3:17
Speaker 1: put the votes on record. That's possible, but pretty angry yesterday,
3:21
Speaker 1: Donald Trump wasn't a variety of topics. So we'll hear
3:24
Speaker 1: what Congress Moarren Davidson has to say about that. Plus
3:27
Speaker 1: Donald Trump here coms asking for it amid all the
3:29
Speaker 1: swirling concerns. You know, the anger and resentment even from
3:32
Speaker 1: some Republicans about him not signing that and following through
3:36
Speaker 1: with it. Donald Trump's asking for eighty seven billion dollars.
3:42
Speaker 1: It's a combined package of asks, which mostly relate to
3:45
Speaker 1: the cost of the war with Iran the vast majority
3:49
Speaker 1: of the ask. There's there's also some money in there
3:51
Speaker 1: for farmers and a billion plus dollars for Ebola. You know,
3:55
Speaker 1: going back to the common I made the other day
3:56
Speaker 1: about the success and absolute amazing wealth of America. We're
4:01
Speaker 1: in a position, well sort of kind of theoretically anyway,
4:04
Speaker 1: because I keep looking at the national debt and realize
4:06
Speaker 1: that we are so underwater it may end up ruining
4:08
Speaker 1: our country, maybe our currency. But the United States nonetheless
4:12
Speaker 1: is in a position to at least offer a billion
4:14
Speaker 1: plus dollars in aid for a problem going on in Africa.
4:17
Speaker 1: Huh what would the world do without us money? Great question,
4:22
Speaker 1: So Congressman Davidson on those topics, maybe some more. Plus
4:25
Speaker 1: it is Friday Evil and the program on a positive note,
4:28
Speaker 1: at least it always is for me. I heard media
4:29
Speaker 1: aviation expert Jay Rattlow five three seven four nine fifty
4:33
Speaker 1: five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to three talk
4:35
Speaker 1: Go with Pound five fifty on AT and T phones.
4:37
Speaker 1: Got something you want to talk about? Feel free? Also
4:39
Speaker 1: head over to fifty five care sea dot com got
4:41
Speaker 1: the podcast page where you can see what I judge
4:43
Speaker 1: in and Apolitano had to say yesterday. Really great historic
4:46
Speaker 1: walkthrough how our elected officials almost from day one ink
4:51
Speaker 1: not even dry on the Constitution and the Bill of
4:53
Speaker 1: Rights started eroding it and anyway all the way through today.
4:57
Speaker 1: A lot of you know, the erosion tends to come
4:59
Speaker 1: from VVK Ramaswami a late edition of the program yesterday.
5:04
Speaker 1: I really enjoyed talking with that. I'm always inspired by him.
5:07
Speaker 1: He's so positive about Ohio, in the future of Ohio.
5:10
Speaker 1: He doesn't need the job. He's well off. He can
5:12
Speaker 1: go any place he wants and just sort of fade
5:14
Speaker 1: on into the ether and enjoy life. He's running for
5:18
Speaker 1: governor of Ohi because he owes it to the state
5:20
Speaker 1: of Ohio. It's been so good to him, so successful,
5:25
Speaker 1: that he wants to help Ohio be successful as well.
5:28
Speaker 1: And again inspiring. I actually suggested Reagan esque in his
5:31
Speaker 1: inspiring words, and never hear him on a down note.
5:34
Speaker 1: Ken Cobra FLP president and the violence in the city
5:37
Speaker 1: of Cincinnati, and some significant revelations about the juvenile court
5:41
Speaker 1: system and the police struggle with police's overall struggle with
5:45
Speaker 1: dealing with juveniles and a system that does not want
5:48
Speaker 1: to punish juveniles for their criminal behavior. Fifty five k
5:52
Speaker 1: RC dot com. Real tragedy going on in Venezuela. It's
5:55
Speaker 1: got me a little bit concerned for here in the
5:56
Speaker 1: United States. There were double earthquakes of rock Venezuela. Happened
6:00
Speaker 1: yesterday evening. The first quake seven point one magnitude west
6:06
Speaker 1: of Caracas, about one hundred miles west of Cracas eight
6:08
Speaker 1: miles depth what they say is not that deep. A
6:10
Speaker 1: minute later, and that's the weird thing about this, because
6:13
Speaker 1: these double earthquakes rarely ever happen. It's been hundreds of
6:16
Speaker 1: years or something. Anyway, a seven point five magnitude quake
6:19
Speaker 1: which was at a depth of six miles. Dual quake
6:23
Speaker 1: followed almost immediately across the world. There was a trembler
6:30
Speaker 1: temblar in Japan six point nine magnitude. And that's the
6:33
Speaker 1: part that sort of linked it to an article I
6:35
Speaker 1: read last couple of days ago. The San Andreas Fault
6:39
Speaker 1: is under the highest level stress it is has been
6:42
Speaker 1: in a thousand years. So you got twin quakes there
6:47
Speaker 1: in Venezuela, you got one, you know, halfway around the
6:49
Speaker 1: globe in Japan, and the San Andreas fault is ready
6:52
Speaker 1: to pop. It's some details on that in a second. Anyway,
6:55
Speaker 1: they damage widespread in Venezuela. They issued a US Geological
7:01
Speaker 1: Survey said red alert for shaking related facility fatalities, economic losses,
7:07
Speaker 1: high casualties, and extensive damage are probable, and the disaster
7:10
Speaker 1: is likely widespread. US Geological services past Red alerts have
7:15
Speaker 1: been have required a national or international response. Estimated economic
7:20
Speaker 1: loss to that as well two to twenty percent of
7:25
Speaker 1: their gross domestic product. That while a large swath there,
7:30
Speaker 1: that's you know, very little too. Can you imagine twenty
7:33
Speaker 1: percent of GDP loss? And then pivot over to the
7:36
Speaker 1: San Andreas fault. If that crack, You've got multiple major
7:39
Speaker 1: cities that could be impacted by that. I cannot imagine
7:44
Speaker 1: the ripple effect. And question, do you do you think
7:47
Speaker 1: FEMA is there to provide enough rescue and emergency services
7:51
Speaker 1: for the people of California should that happen, right, if
7:55
Speaker 1: you do believe that that's possible, then I got a bridge.
7:58
Speaker 1: I want to say you. After shocks of the capital,
8:00
Speaker 1: cell phone coverage dropped out in Venezuela, significant damage to
8:04
Speaker 1: the Capitol's airport, the roof collapsed. There was all kinds
8:07
Speaker 1: of video on that, people just just dashing left and right,
8:11
Speaker 1: most people running out into the street. They're talking about
8:15
Speaker 1: even more aftershocks. Okay, so they say the closest historical
8:18
Speaker 1: comparison to these twin earthquakes again like within a minute
8:21
Speaker 1: of each other. You got to go back to March
8:22
Speaker 1: of eighteen twelve, the Caracous earthquake sequins described as twin
8:31
Speaker 1: destructive shocks within thirty minutes, leading to an estimated death
8:36
Speaker 1: pull of fifteen to twenty thousand dollars. That's according to
8:39
Speaker 1: the United States Geological Survey summary of what they believed happened.
8:43
Speaker 1: They said maybe as many as a thirty thousand lives.
8:46
Speaker 1: But remember this was eighteen twelve, eighteen twelve, when the
8:49
Speaker 1: population was not that significant. But also the data that
8:51
Speaker 1: they were able to keep and the numbers that they
8:53
Speaker 1: were able to keep and documenting the actual deaths as a
8:55
Speaker 1: consequence of the earthquake. So that's why you've got that
8:58
Speaker 1: unusually large swath. Let's face it, fifteen to thirty thousand
9:02
Speaker 1: lives back then. Wonder what the population is in terms
9:06
Speaker 1: of quadrupling or doubling or whatever geometric or exponential increase
9:10
Speaker 1: there's been since that period of time. That's a lot
9:12
Speaker 1: of years that have gone by. That's why the US
9:14
Speaker 1: Geological Survey is saying there may be up to in
9:17
Speaker 1: this earthquake from Venezuela yesterday evening one hundred thousand deaths.
9:27
Speaker 1: That's what the USGS has initially estimated. But again the
9:31
Speaker 1: swath is a rather large one, between ten thousand and
9:35
Speaker 1: one hundred thousand. But when I think of the population
9:39
Speaker 1: areas in the California area of the San Andres and
9:42
Speaker 1: is it San Jaquinto faults anyway, there's these twin faults
9:46
Speaker 1: that run into each other, and the tension has been
9:49
Speaker 1: building up. So the folks who monitor these things, after
9:54
Speaker 1: analyzing one thousand years of data, the researchers found that
9:57
Speaker 1: the stress along multiple portions of these two faults is
10:00
Speaker 1: that the highest it's been in a millennium. Of course,
10:04
Speaker 1: the earthquakes happen when the tectonic plates just finally release
10:08
Speaker 1: all this stress. Last devastating quake eighteen fifty seven in
10:13
Speaker 1: Los Angeles magnitude seven point nine. I remember the ones
10:17
Speaker 1: in yesterday in Venezuela were seven point one to seven
10:19
Speaker 1: point five, so the larger magnitude of quake, but seven
10:24
Speaker 1: point nine tremor ruptured a two hundred and twenty five
10:28
Speaker 1: miles stretch in the southern part of the San Andreas fault,
10:31
Speaker 1: and since then, the researchers point out that the fault
10:34
Speaker 1: line has remained largely dormant, with stress continuing to build
10:37
Speaker 1: elsewhere along the fight All fault, as well as along
10:39
Speaker 1: the neighboring San Jaiquito fault. This is causing a problem
10:45
Speaker 1: researchers right now with stress is historically high levels are
10:49
Speaker 1: across the region of more than one hundred and sixty
10:51
Speaker 1: years elapse since the last major rupture, the system is
10:54
Speaker 1: in a critically loaded state. Okay, that's from one of
10:59
Speaker 1: the leads Toddies and researchers relating to this news release.
11:05
Speaker 1: The resulting quake would affect densely populated areas including Los Angeles,
11:10
Speaker 1: San Bernardino, Riverside, and Coachella Valley. Researchers predict the tremor
11:14
Speaker 1: could be between seven point four and seven point eight
11:19
Speaker 1: in magnitude, causing significant damage to critical infrastructure major highways, railways,
11:24
Speaker 1: energy corridors, and several cities simultaneously. That is frightening stuff
11:31
Speaker 1: and just an out loud question. Are we prepared to
11:33
Speaker 1: deal with the ripple effects? You think inflation jumped as
11:36
Speaker 1: a consequence of the strait of horror moves being cut down?
11:39
Speaker 1: Can you imagine the economic impact in the United States,
11:42
Speaker 1: broadly speaking, if all three of those cities suffer significant damage,
11:46
Speaker 1: and of course the cost for repair and replacement, infrastructure damage,
11:50
Speaker 1: loss of lives, economic damage, that would be a problem,
11:58
Speaker 1: a large problem. I'm not quite sure how you and
12:01
Speaker 1: I are prepared to dealing with something like that, but
12:03
Speaker 1: I suppose it's something you got to contemplate. And if
12:06
Speaker 1: you think, like the ever growing list of democratic socialists
12:12
Speaker 1: of America demands the things that they want to pay
12:15
Speaker 1: for and not charge anything for, you think that these
12:19
Speaker 1: government programs are going to have enough money and be
12:21
Speaker 1: funded well enough to provide you all of that and
12:24
Speaker 1: then cover major economic damage as a consequence of it.
12:29
Speaker 1: If it isn't the Sanasrea's fault. It gives way. What
12:32
Speaker 1: about earth other earthquakes or major storms, you know, all
12:35
Speaker 1: kinds of you know, wildfires. You could come up with
12:38
Speaker 1: the multitude of reasons. Then FEMA does not have enough
12:42
Speaker 1: resources or money in a program to cover it all.
12:46
Speaker 1: You're kind of left on your own. Are you prepared
12:50
Speaker 1: to meet the challenges alone? We're thinking about anyway? Five
12:54
Speaker 1: eighteen fifty five KRC the talk station, be right back
12:56
Speaker 1: after these brief words. This is fifty five KRC and
13:00
Speaker 1: I Heeart Radio Station two. Happy Friday, Eve five on three,
13:04
Speaker 1: seven four nine fifty five eight hundred eight two three
13:07
Speaker 1: talk times by fifty on your AT and T pots.
13:09
Speaker 1: You're right, Corey, sounds like people in California need to
13:12
Speaker 1: learn to swim, channeling my opening theme song. Well stated, yep,
13:17
Speaker 1: that's a good idea for anybody, not just people in
13:19
Speaker 1: the state of California, although I think they are probably
13:21
Speaker 1: in greater need of a swimming lesson out there. Anyhow,
13:25
Speaker 1: look up the lyrics if you don't know what I'm
13:26
Speaker 1: talking about. Governor to wy veto to bill yesterday, Okay,
13:29
Speaker 1: House Bill seven four to seventy two, which is one
13:31
Speaker 1: of vetoed would have required the voters to provide a
13:35
Speaker 1: copy of their photo ID, either by mail, in person,
13:38
Speaker 1: or through an application board. This is for folks who
13:40
Speaker 1: vote by mail. Now, current law, which remains in place,
13:46
Speaker 1: says the voters can provide a driver's license or social
13:48
Speaker 1: Security number instead of a photo ID. Obviously, you know
13:52
Speaker 1: there's a little bit of a work around there. So
13:53
Speaker 1: House Bill four seventy two requires a photo ID, along
13:56
Speaker 1: with the opportunity to mail it or send it electronically
13:59
Speaker 1: or do it in per It did carve out exceptions
14:02
Speaker 1: for military overseas voters, folks with disabilities, mobility limitations, medical
14:07
Speaker 1: conditions that are severe. Also allows voters to opt out
14:09
Speaker 1: if they could claim any other material obstacle. So a
14:12
Speaker 1: lot of exceptions to the mandatory photo ID requirement, but
14:16
Speaker 1: a photo ID requirement. Nonetheless, it was an extra layer
14:19
Speaker 1: of what the Republicans proceed to be perception. Governor Wine
14:22
Speaker 1: says no, he vetoed it. House Bill for seventy two
14:27
Speaker 1: would not discourage fraud, would not add any real security,
14:31
Speaker 1: and would create an additional and significant burden for Ohioans
14:34
Speaker 1: who vote by mail. This bill is not needed because
14:37
Speaker 1: Ohio does an excellent job running elections close quote Governor
14:40
Speaker 1: to Wine. Now, he even made that comment back in
14:44
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three when he signed in the voter ID
14:48
Speaker 1: law that we passed back then, considering then the election
14:51
Speaker 1: integrity issue to be settled. So he's holding to that position.
14:56
Speaker 1: So no photo ID for mail in ballots now, at
14:59
Speaker 1: least now that they can get three fists of the folks
15:03
Speaker 1: in the House and send it together. Of course they
15:04
Speaker 1: can override Governor de Wine's vehicle a veto vehicle treasurers
15:09
Speaker 1: Treasurer Robert Sprague running for a secretary of state. Photo ID,
15:14
Speaker 1: he said, as a common sense, commonplace requirement in everyday
15:17
Speaker 1: life and most trustworthy means of ensuring that a person
15:20
Speaker 1: is who they say they are. The legislation would have
15:23
Speaker 1: served as significant deterrent to mail in voter fraud at
15:26
Speaker 1: met Ohio elections more secure, which is the point. I
15:29
Speaker 1: think you can make a good argument that they would
15:31
Speaker 1: be more secure. The photo ID one more layer of security,
15:38
Speaker 1: I suppose. And I'm thinking about how you mail in
15:41
Speaker 1: a photo ID to use xerox copy of it? Could
15:46
Speaker 1: that be altered? Joe, do you think anybody could use
15:49
Speaker 1: artificial intelligence? To alter a photo copied version of their
15:52
Speaker 1: driver's license, just asking for a friend. There's always workarounds,
15:56
Speaker 1: aren't there anyhow? Oh, great new safety measures for blue
16:03
Speaker 1: ash after last year's well mob violence, local stories coming up.
16:08
Speaker 1: Got plenty of those. Phone calls are always welcome, though.
16:11
Speaker 1: Five one three seven four nine fifty five hundred, eight
16:13
Speaker 1: hundred and eight two three talk be right back after
16:14
Speaker 1: these brief words.
16:15
Speaker 3: Fifty five krcy.
16:18
Speaker 1: Good weather on Saturday, please seems like a small ask.
16:23
Speaker 1: Five one three seven fifty five hundred, eight hundred and
16:25
Speaker 1: eight two three talk over the phones we go, Tom,
16:28
Speaker 1: Thanks for calling this morning. Happy Friday Eve.
16:31
Speaker 2: Yeah, as long as your little area where your your
16:34
Speaker 2: event's gonna happen for Saturday, as long as that's dry, that's.
16:36
Speaker 1: What matters, right, it is, you know. And it's funny
16:38
Speaker 1: because I watched both versions of Father of the Bride,
16:41
Speaker 1: the most recent one was Steve Martin and then the
16:43
Speaker 1: one with Oh Gosh from the nineteen fifties anyway, and
16:49
Speaker 1: the relationship between the dad and the daughter in the
16:52
Speaker 1: in those movies different than the relationship I have with
16:54
Speaker 1: my daughter. But it got me thinking about I wonder
16:56
Speaker 1: how she's feeling. Is she have any concerns? You know,
16:58
Speaker 1: there's alt the other daughter in the movie was worried
17:00
Speaker 1: and broke up with her fiance for a little bit,
17:02
Speaker 1: and blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. And it's
17:04
Speaker 1: all about the size and the expense of the wedding,
17:06
Speaker 1: you know, father dealing with the reality of that. But
17:09
Speaker 1: I called my daughter yesterday. I said, honey, we haven't talked.
17:11
Speaker 1: I'm just kind of wondering, as we're fast approaching Saturday,
17:14
Speaker 1: are you doing okay? You feeling right? She's yeah, I'm fine.
17:16
Speaker 1: Why it's like, okay, you know, no melancholy, no worries,
17:20
Speaker 1: no concerns. I said, well, I know it's it's supposed
17:23
Speaker 1: to rain, and I'm kind of I'm thinking you're probably
17:25
Speaker 1: worried about that. She's all, whatever, if it rains, it rains.
17:28
Speaker 1: And I said, are you going to let your friends
17:30
Speaker 1: know the invitees know that it may rain, therefore they
17:32
Speaker 1: might want to bring different shoes or something. She goes,
17:34
Speaker 1: Come on, if they're not smart enough to take a
17:35
Speaker 1: look at the weather forecast, that's their problem. So you know,
17:39
Speaker 1: she's she's a chip off the old block.
17:42
Speaker 2: Who's the sensible, reasonable one in that kind?
17:45
Speaker 1: I know, I know. It warmed my heart. It warmed
17:49
Speaker 1: my heart.
17:50
Speaker 2: No, it's good, it's good. It's it's great when you
17:52
Speaker 2: your kids do stuff, and especially like the daughters, they
17:56
Speaker 2: do something and there's like I have an event that
17:59
Speaker 2: happened with my order when she was eighteen and was
18:01
Speaker 2: like I still remember and it like brought a tear
18:04
Speaker 2: to my eye seeing how grown up she was. So yeah,
18:06
Speaker 2: she just got she just got remarried yesterday, and that
18:11
Speaker 2: she's out in California. So all this talk about earthquakes,
18:14
Speaker 2: I would say a few months ago or whatever, I
18:17
Speaker 2: would be like, yeah, let the whole, let the whole
18:19
Speaker 2: less I drop off, But now maybe not so much.
18:22
Speaker 1: Yeah, no more out there, no more see you down
18:25
Speaker 1: in Arizona Bay for Tom. You know, he's got a
18:27
Speaker 1: vested interest in the population of California.
18:31
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's yeah. I'm not really hoping for that to
18:33
Speaker 2: happen anymore. And and and obviously that would be that
18:38
Speaker 2: would be a tragic no matter what. Who was that.
18:40
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, now that it's somebody that I know
18:43
Speaker 2: and care about, like, uh yeah, maybe not. I didn't
18:47
Speaker 2: want to comment on your uh, your your mention of
18:50
Speaker 2: the juvenile courts and and uh I. I also think this
18:55
Speaker 2: plays right into the hand of of the people who
18:57
Speaker 2: are trying to tear this country down because if you
19:00
Speaker 2: don't get the kids under control. And yes, anybody out
19:06
Speaker 2: there that heard that, yes, children need to be controlled,
19:10
Speaker 2: adults need to be.
19:11
Speaker 1: Controlled sometimes, you know, but yes, that's why we have
19:14
Speaker 1: a criminal justice system as well as the civil justice
19:17
Speaker 1: civil justice system as well.
19:19
Speaker 2: If you do not teachee children to control themselves and
19:23
Speaker 2: let them know that there is things in place to
19:26
Speaker 2: control them, if they get out of line, they will
19:29
Speaker 2: just go crazy. And we've seen it, we've all we've
19:32
Speaker 2: all seen it in a lesser degree, like you see
19:36
Speaker 2: you see children acting up in a in a restaurant
19:39
Speaker 2: and going crazy. Yesterday, I'm on the other side of
19:42
Speaker 2: a restaurant and I can hear this kid all. I
19:45
Speaker 2: can see him at all far other end of the restaurant,
19:48
Speaker 2: and he is just playing some kind of tune whatever
19:51
Speaker 2: using his hands and banging on the the bench behind
19:55
Speaker 2: where his family is sitting, and he's just going at it,
19:58
Speaker 2: and his mom just turns around looking at them, like,
20:01
Speaker 2: don't you know that there's other people in this restaurant
20:03
Speaker 2: that would really like some some peace and quiet and
20:06
Speaker 2: not listening to your I can just imagine the people
20:08
Speaker 2: that were right next to them like that, and that's
20:11
Speaker 2: what would Oh yeah, you wouldn't have done You wouldn't
20:15
Speaker 2: have done no better, right right, So that's and then
20:22
Speaker 2: that's we talk We talk about this all the time,
20:25
Speaker 2: but it's something that has to be going on all
20:27
Speaker 2: the time. If there's not a one off thing where
20:30
Speaker 2: you teach your kids, so you have to stay on this.
20:32
Speaker 2: This is an hourly, daily thing. You gotta teach kids. Hey,
20:35
Speaker 2: you need to control yourself. There's a certain way you're
20:38
Speaker 2: supposed to behave. You know, there's there's a there's cut
20:40
Speaker 2: and loose sometimes, but you gotta you gotta find the
20:43
Speaker 2: right spot for that. You gotta let kids. You gotta
20:45
Speaker 2: let kids get some energy out. But you can't you
20:47
Speaker 2: can't let them learn to live, go hog wild, do
20:50
Speaker 2: whatever whenever. Now, there's gotta be you gotta have some
20:53
Speaker 2: self control. And that doesn't that doesn't come naturally. It
20:55
Speaker 2: has to be taught. And unfortunately, we need a juvenile
20:59
Speaker 2: court system. And if they're not doing that job, their
21:01
Speaker 2: job will squid. So and of course I think all
21:04
Speaker 2: this is going on because the Laptist is pushed this,
21:07
Speaker 2: and they want this, and they welcome this, and so
21:10
Speaker 2: therefore don't vote Democrat.
21:12
Speaker 3: Appreciate it.
21:13
Speaker 1: Thanks Tom. I know we get to that point at
21:15
Speaker 1: some juncture in the conversation over to the local story
21:18
Speaker 1: speaking of the juveniles and panic and problems with crime.
21:23
Speaker 1: Blue Ash has some new rules for the Blue Ash
21:26
Speaker 1: annual Mad Tree, Red, White and Blue Ash because well,
21:30
Speaker 1: with twenty to fifty thousand people expected to attend last
21:33
Speaker 1: year's incident with roughly four hundred juveniles causing a panic,
21:37
Speaker 1: throwing off blown up fireworks and getting into fifths fights,
21:41
Speaker 1: of course they need new rule changes.
21:42
Speaker 4: Hmmm.
21:43
Speaker 1: Sorry. Margaret O'Gorman, who's the general manager of programs for
21:46
Speaker 1: the events for the Blue Ash, said the incidents led
21:49
Speaker 1: to the changes this year. She said, it was hard,
21:51
Speaker 1: but we got to do something. Biggest rule change ahead
21:54
Speaker 1: of the event this year, no one under the age
21:56
Speaker 1: of eighteen will be admitted without a parent or guardian
21:58
Speaker 1: who is older than twenty one. There will be a
22:03
Speaker 1: fence perimeter four designated entry and exit points. All four
22:07
Speaker 1: will be camera surveiled and have security personnel there. O'
22:13
Speaker 1: gorman said that anyone bringing bags have to have clear
22:15
Speaker 1: bags that do not exceed sixteen inches by sixteen inches
22:19
Speaker 1: by eight inches, So don't bring that nine inch wide
22:23
Speaker 1: bag or rather a seventeen inch bag. Also, small clutches
22:27
Speaker 1: that are no longer than four and a half inches
22:29
Speaker 1: by six and a half inches will be permitted. I
22:31
Speaker 1: don't know how they arrive at the sizes on these anyway,
22:34
Speaker 1: No matter what, any and all bags will be subject
22:37
Speaker 1: to search upon entry or at any time while you're
22:39
Speaker 1: in the event, so they can come up in and
22:41
Speaker 1: ask to see what's inside the bag. Event entrances open
22:43
Speaker 1: at three pm. Attendees are not allowed to enter early.
22:47
Speaker 1: There is no chair drop off before the entrance is open,
22:50
Speaker 1: no umbrellas, and businesses within the festival perimeter may be
22:53
Speaker 1: accessed only through the entrance on a summon parkway one
22:56
Speaker 1: of the designated four entrance ways. Typical rule for the
23:00
Speaker 1: event no ten steaks, tarbs, canopies, coolers outside, alcohol, dogs
23:04
Speaker 1: or pets still apply to the event this year. So
23:07
Speaker 1: trying to bring some safety to an event and come on,
23:09
Speaker 1: man a wonderful community event like that celebrating the two
23:13
Speaker 1: hundred and fiftieth anniversary this year, just generally the Independence Day.
23:17
Speaker 1: It's a shame that reckless run them up juveniles can
23:21
Speaker 1: ruin a good time for everybody. But wow, that's a
23:24
Speaker 1: growing phenomenon. So Corey's on the line. Learned to swim,
23:27
Speaker 1: said Corey a moment ago. We'll hear what he has
23:29
Speaker 1: to say after I mentioned Colin Electric Andrew Culin for
23:34
Speaker 1: one fifty five KSD talk station in a happy Friday
23:37
Speaker 1: E five three seven eight two three talk I f
23:41
Speaker 1: fifty on eight and T phone is going to go
23:42
Speaker 1: over to the phones right now. Corey knows the lyrics
23:45
Speaker 1: one great, big festering neon distraction. I have a suggestion
23:49
Speaker 1: to keep you all occupied, learn to swim. Corey. Welcome
23:52
Speaker 1: to the Morning Show.
23:54
Speaker 5: Thank you, Brian. Absolutely, that's such a great song.
23:57
Speaker 2: It is.
23:58
Speaker 1: Ly I know a multitude of f bombs in the song,
24:04
Speaker 1: but they seem to be quite appropriate if you lead
24:06
Speaker 1: read the lyrics along with the song. And I love
24:09
Speaker 1: that song. Anima by the way by tool. If you're
24:12
Speaker 1: a e N I am a go ahead look it
24:14
Speaker 1: up anyhow, go ahead, Corey.
24:18
Speaker 5: Reason my call just in general, just rhinos don't know.
24:21
Speaker 5: Tom Alway says, don't vote a Democrat. I say, more importantly,
24:23
Speaker 5: don't vote rhinos. And Mike Dewayant is probably one of
24:26
Speaker 5: the biggest rhinos I think there possibly could be. And uh,
24:29
Speaker 5: like he vetoed that bill yesterday, then a couple of
24:32
Speaker 5: days prior he signed some red flag low stuff, a
24:35
Speaker 5: little more infrenchment on our rights. And uh, just it
24:39
Speaker 5: seems like the rhinos constantly are trying to ins the rights.
24:43
Speaker 5: And even sometimes I might have good intentions, like you
24:45
Speaker 5: just saw blue ash. They have no right to search
24:48
Speaker 5: your bag. That is an unreasonable search, a seizure of
24:51
Speaker 5: your persons of property. Even though you know going to
24:55
Speaker 5: a gate, the government still can't search you without a warrant.
24:58
Speaker 5: And notice I didn't notice you did not mentioned firearms
25:01
Speaker 5: those prohibitive items because they know one hundred percent to
25:03
Speaker 5: lose that fight, but they lose a fight on the
25:05
Speaker 5: search as well. But uh anyway, Uh, I see an
25:09
Speaker 5: article out of Fort Saint Lucy, Florida, probably about two
25:12
Speaker 5: months ago now where the local HOA sent everybody in
25:16
Speaker 5: that HOA banning firearms, said they can no longer carry
25:20
Speaker 5: them in public before openly and as that's another example
25:25
Speaker 5: of an infringement. And I'm sure probably Port Saint Lucy
25:28
Speaker 5: probably has a Republican you know, people in the council
25:31
Speaker 5: where are at local HIA. But these always it seems
25:35
Speaker 5: like these rhinos pass these laws to always turn around
25:38
Speaker 5: and fights Republicans in the bud later on, because as
25:41
Speaker 5: soon as the Democrats are control, they run wild with
25:44
Speaker 5: that stuff.
25:44
Speaker 3: Yeah.
25:44
Speaker 1: I can't comment on the political makeup of the homeowners
25:47
Speaker 1: Association Port Saint Louci, but yeah, good luck trying to
25:50
Speaker 1: keep that in place. We do have a second amendment,
25:52
Speaker 1: shall not be infringe You know, you're appreciated, Gary, appreciate
25:57
Speaker 1: it very much. And let's see what Boby's got this
26:00
Speaker 1: morning speaking of firearms. Bobby, welcome back to the Morning Show.
26:03
Speaker 4: Good morning, my brother faith flagged family in today's Handicapped Thursday.
26:09
Speaker 1: Oh that's right, it is. So what's the over nunder
26:11
Speaker 1: for the weekends a gunplay activity?
26:14
Speaker 4: Bobby, Well, brother, since it's the second week in the summer,
26:18
Speaker 4: we're putting it six and a half or at least
26:20
Speaker 4: one street takeover.
26:22
Speaker 1: Six and a half on the shootings and one street takeover.
26:26
Speaker 1: Get over to Polymarket to place your bets.
26:29
Speaker 4: Now, the six and a half is shootings, beatings, stabbings.
26:34
Speaker 1: You know, violent downs like they had.
26:36
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, and Cincinnati's four of them. And Richard K.
26:42
Speaker 4: Jones made a nice statement the other day he said,
26:44
Speaker 4: compared to Cincinnati and Chicago, you got five and a
26:48
Speaker 4: half more times to be beaten, stabbed or shout in
26:52
Speaker 4: Cincinnati as you do Chicago.
26:54
Speaker 1: Given the population. That probably is an accurate statistic, which
26:57
Speaker 1: is frightening. Bobby, appreciate the head up on that. Seventy
27:00
Speaker 1: two hours is what Bobby kind of cautions you about
27:02
Speaker 1: going back to that. What are you going to do
27:04
Speaker 1: if the San Andreas fault cracks up? Learn to swim.
27:07
Speaker 1: Maybe a little too late by the time that cracks
27:09
Speaker 1: good man. Bobby appreciate hearing from you real quick. Here,
27:12
Speaker 1: I have a Friday esque stack as stupid. Since I'm
27:15
Speaker 1: not going to be here tomorrow, Gary, Jeff Walker, thank
27:17
Speaker 1: you for covering for me. We go to Palm Beach, Florida,
27:19
Speaker 1: which is typically where a Friday stack of stupid comes,
27:22
Speaker 1: and you know there's a naked guy involved. Yes, deputies
27:24
Speaker 1: say there was a man naked inside a vehicle to
27:26
Speaker 1: local park Palm Beach, County Sheriff's Office specifically identified Evan Colter,
27:31
Speaker 1: who was arrested June eleventh at Okahey Park, where support
27:36
Speaker 1: said a woman called nine to one one notice the
27:37
Speaker 1: man park next to her car to baseball fields acting strangely.
27:42
Speaker 1: The old deputy as a man was completely naked inside
27:45
Speaker 1: the car and appeared to be performing indecent acts that's plural.
27:51
Speaker 1: Scull felt scared and uncomfortable, gave the cops the description
27:54
Speaker 1: of the vehicle before the guy drove away. The police
27:57
Speaker 1: did identify them the vehicle in a park, made contact
28:01
Speaker 1: with the driver again, Evan Colter his name, and here's
28:05
Speaker 1: something you can contemplate and investigator send A man denied
28:07
Speaker 1: the allegations, but officers reported finding evidence inside the vehicle
28:12
Speaker 1: that matched the witness's account.
28:14
Speaker 3: Would get deliberate penalties, so we could get into the
28:17
Speaker 3: penalty box all by himself.
28:19
Speaker 1: Kind of what I'm thinking. Deputies determined there was probable
28:22
Speaker 1: cost to arrest him on a charge of vulgar indecent
28:25
Speaker 1: public nudity, issued a notice to a peer of court
28:27
Speaker 1: at a later date. Five forty five fifty five kr

34:50
Speaker 1: fire departments, police departments, and basically city government. Generally speaking,
34:54
Speaker 1: it's like a collective of whistleblowers and she brings the
34:56
Speaker 1: goods with her, has all the information backing up what
34:59
Speaker 1: she asserts online and has proven herself to be right
35:01
Speaker 1: time after time after time. That's why we enjoy her,
35:05
Speaker 1: and that's why she's become such a popular place to
35:07
Speaker 1: get information, accurate information you might not find in your
35:10
Speaker 1: local media reporting, although at least in the case of
35:13
Speaker 1: Fox nineteen, they at least followed up after she was
35:16
Speaker 1: accused of lying in connection with the last Friday's juvenile
35:21
Speaker 1: outbreak running amuck from Small Park all the way up
35:23
Speaker 1: to Fountain Square. Yeah, she was right on that too.
35:26
Speaker 1: Eighth five Congressman Warren Davidson. Is the war over a
35:30
Speaker 1: question mark that's a good question. Twenty first Century Road
35:33
Speaker 1: to Housing Act, that one. Donald Trump came out yesterday
35:36
Speaker 1: and said, I'm not going to sign it. This Housing
35:40
Speaker 1: Act passed three fifty eight to thirty two. Now, whether
35:44
Speaker 1: or not you think it's going to do any good
35:46
Speaker 1: for lowering housing, They suggest it will address affordability challenges
35:50
Speaker 1: that a lot of people are facing, expand supply of
35:53
Speaker 1: homes lower costs, giving individual buyers a leg up by
35:56
Speaker 1: stopping large institutional investors from purchasing single family homes. Again,
36:00
Speaker 1: overwhelming bipartisan support Donald Trump came out said no way.
36:03
Speaker 1: They had a signing ceremony, he was ready to go
36:05
Speaker 1: in and sign it and said, nope, save Act. I'm
36:08
Speaker 1: not going to sign this. You passed the Save America
36:11
Speaker 1: Act first, it's a national emergency, asserted desperately need Save
36:16
Speaker 1: America Act. I consider to be a national emergency. Thank
36:19
Speaker 1: you for your attention to this matter, he wrote on
36:21
Speaker 1: true social media. Of course it's got a lot of
36:23
Speaker 1: Republicans a little angry with him, and of course the
36:25
Speaker 1: Democrats are pulling their hair out over that. I'm sure
36:27
Speaker 1: Congress and Davidson will have a word or two on
36:29
Speaker 1: his decision along those lines. And I still am struggling
36:33
Speaker 1: with how if you don't have the votes in the Senate,
36:36
Speaker 1: is it a symbolic you advanced the bill and have
36:38
Speaker 1: the senator's vote on it only to get it shut down. Well,
36:41
Speaker 1: the correllary to that is Donald Trump is also pushing
36:43
Speaker 1: to end the filibuster. And I trust me you could
36:49
Speaker 1: get what you want done, Donald, but you're leaving the
36:51
Speaker 1: next administration which may not be in Republican hands, with
36:55
Speaker 1: the option of the Democrats passing whatever the hell they want,
36:58
Speaker 1: and with his social shift in the Democrat Party, as
37:02
Speaker 1: demonstrated by the elections in New York the other day.
37:05
Speaker 1: And I'll grant you as a low vot voter turnout
37:07
Speaker 1: and all, but that's the direction that the Democrat Party
37:09
Speaker 1: is going. And I fret for the future of America
37:12
Speaker 1: if they get what they want. So yet, and I
37:15
Speaker 1: know I can hear the voices out there going, but
37:17
Speaker 1: the Democrats are going to eradicate the filibuster when they
37:19
Speaker 1: take over, and that may very well be Donald Trump
37:21
Speaker 1: also asking for eighty seven billion dollars to cover the
37:25
Speaker 1: Iran war costs money for farmers, Yeah, a billion plus
37:30
Speaker 1: dollars for farmer Aid, and then more than a billion
37:32
Speaker 1: dollars to fight Ebola in Africa. Plus it is Thursday.
37:36
Speaker 1: I heard media aviation expert Jay Rattle. If after Congressman
37:39
Speaker 1: Davidson addresses those topics and maybe some others five on three, seven, four,
37:42
Speaker 1: nine fifty five, eight hundred eighty two to three talk
37:45
Speaker 1: pound five fifty on AT and T phone. So what
37:47
Speaker 1: do you got going on? Well, the Wall Street Journal
37:52
Speaker 1: are calling the Roster Journal, calling the New York vote
37:54
Speaker 1: a route for the far left over the left, Yes,
37:57
Speaker 1: because it represents a sizeable shift towards socialism for the
38:01
Speaker 1: Democrat Party. Now bear in mind, it was a low
38:03
Speaker 1: voter turnout, and this speaks volumes to the city of Cincinnati.
38:07
Speaker 1: When you only have twenty five percent of registered voters
38:09
Speaker 1: showing up and the far left is energized, engaged and
38:14
Speaker 1: does a great job with outreach and getting voters to
38:18
Speaker 1: the polls, you're fighting a big uphill challenge. So one
38:21
Speaker 1: could argue that the socialist shift doesn't really represent the
38:24
Speaker 1: will of most of New Yorkers, but you have to
38:27
Speaker 1: kind of guess at that. You got one. Claire Valdez,
38:34
Speaker 1: one of the far left candidates that won. She was
38:38
Speaker 1: in Let's see, what was the district she was in.
38:42
Speaker 1: It was only seven percent of the vote determined that
38:48
Speaker 1: she would be the victor in that particular race she had.
38:50
Speaker 1: You have like five hundred thousand voters in a particular
38:52
Speaker 1: district and only seven percent show up. That's because they're organized.
38:57
Speaker 1: But what are they organized around? This is the thing
38:59
Speaker 1: that blew my mind this morning. So yeah, going back
39:01
Speaker 1: to Clairevades. In her victory speech, she vowed to fight
39:03
Speaker 1: to abolish US immigration and customs enforcement, standing firmly with
39:08
Speaker 1: a transgender community wants to end the Israeli military occupation
39:12
Speaker 1: West Bank of Gaza. And that's a real red flag
39:14
Speaker 1: for supporters of Israel because the Democrat Party enjoys, up
39:19
Speaker 1: until recently, enjoys wide support from the Democrats, but the
39:22
Speaker 1: Democrats more and more becoming the party of well anti Semitism.
39:26
Speaker 1: Can I paint a broad brush on that one anyway?
39:29
Speaker 1: The National dssay this is the platform describes capitalism as
39:34
Speaker 1: the cause of violence, unemployment, and climate crisis that poses
39:39
Speaker 1: an existential threat to life on Earth. These are quotes
39:42
Speaker 1: from the Democrat DSA's website and their party platform. They
39:47
Speaker 1: called the Democrat Party center right and controlled by an
39:52
Speaker 1: elite donor class, and they accused the party leaders here
39:56
Speaker 1: you go, my friends of Israel, of supporting Israel's genocide
39:59
Speaker 1: and Gaza. Let's dive on into a few more details.
40:05
Speaker 1: DSA's wish list, described by The Washington Times as long
40:10
Speaker 1: and sweeping. Here we go, medicare for all, with no
40:15
Speaker 1: healthcare premiums, copays, deductibles, including reproductive and gender affirming care.
40:20
Speaker 1: Free stuff coming your way. Hey, you didn't realize that
40:23
Speaker 1: all this stuff had come for free. You don't have
40:25
Speaker 1: to pay a dime for it. Let's see what else
40:28
Speaker 1: do they want? Tuition free public higher education, eliminating out
40:32
Speaker 1: of pocket costs for room and board and canceling all
40:35
Speaker 1: student loan debt free, calls for universal rent control, guarantee,
40:40
Speaker 1: legal representation for tenants, major public investment in social housing free.
40:45
Speaker 1: DSAY wants universal childcare and pre K expansive paid family leave,
40:50
Speaker 1: thirty two hour work week with no loss in pay
40:53
Speaker 1: or benefits, Stronger union protections including easier organizing rules, and
40:58
Speaker 1: more funding for the National Labor Relations Board. Oh, we're
41:01
Speaker 1: not done on the subject of taxes, of course, higher
41:05
Speaker 1: tax rates on wealthier earners, nonprofit corporations, large inheritances, and
41:10
Speaker 1: private colleges and universities, as well as a wealth tax
41:13
Speaker 1: on the quote unquote ultra rich. I'll leave it to
41:16
Speaker 1: you to determine what the DSA considers to be ultra rich.
41:19
Speaker 1: Probably you are in the category, even though you don't
41:22
Speaker 1: feel like you are ultra rich. We are to climate
41:25
Speaker 1: and energy. They of course backed the Green New Deal,
41:28
Speaker 1: with massive public investment in transition away from fossil fuels,
41:33
Speaker 1: guarantees for guarantees for displaced workers, and public ownership of
41:39
Speaker 1: major transportation, energy infrastructure, and natural ownership or natural resources.
41:44
Speaker 1: There you go taking over control of the means of production.
41:46
Speaker 1: That's what socialists and communists do. Over to criminal justice,
41:50
Speaker 1: which is crept into our neighborhood here in the Greater
41:52
Speaker 1: Cincinnati area, ending mandatory minimums and cash bail, demilitarizing police departments,
41:58
Speaker 1: and treating drug addiction as a public health issue. Foreign policy,
42:02
Speaker 1: they want an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza, full
42:05
Speaker 1: cut off of US military and economic aid to Israel,
42:08
Speaker 1: recognition of the International Criminal Court and International Court of Justice,
42:13
Speaker 1: and an independent Palestinian state. Also, they want a slash
42:19
Speaker 1: the United States military budget, clothes overseas bases, bring troops home,
42:23
Speaker 1: and en economic sanctions on countries that quote act independently
42:27
Speaker 1: of the United States. Those countries specifically including Cuba, Venezuela,
42:31
Speaker 1: and Iran. On immigration not done yet, abolish ice, demilitarize
42:40
Speaker 1: the border and all deportations. Grant immediate amnesty to all immigrants,
42:45
Speaker 1: regardless of status. I suppose that would mean including all
42:49
Speaker 1: criminal illegal immigrants who are here, give them, give them
42:54
Speaker 1: amnesty and set them free bus guaranteeing access to jobs,
42:59
Speaker 1: labor rights and social services. Is that all now on democracy?
43:04
Speaker 1: The group wants to extend voting rights to non citizens
43:06
Speaker 1: and people with criminal convictions, grant statehood to Washington, d C.
43:10
Speaker 1: Replace the two party system with proportional representation, Expand the
43:15
Speaker 1: House and the Senate filibusters. See it's right there, limit
43:19
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court power of judicial review, and replace the
43:21
Speaker 1: electoral college with the national popular vote. Oh okay, well,
43:24
Speaker 1: there's your list of demands and it's all free. I
43:28
Speaker 1: will have to observe. This obviously undermines many of the
43:32
Speaker 1: provisions of the Constitution of the United States of America.
43:35
Speaker 1: Same question I asked Jude Jenna Politano. If you're partying,
43:39
Speaker 1: if you're a Democratic Socialist in America and you're running
43:41
Speaker 1: on the party platform, you can't swear an oath of
43:44
Speaker 1: allegiance to the United States Constitution because you're campaigning to
43:48
Speaker 1: undermine it. You're promising it. I don't know how this
43:55
Speaker 1: works in real life, and apparently the voters in New
43:59
Speaker 1: York if you that showed up, don't understand basic principles
44:03
Speaker 1: of economics. Someone has to pay for it with their
44:10
Speaker 1: rapacious taxation and their unlimited list of demands coming from
44:14
Speaker 1: government for free stuff and things. The math just doesn't
44:19
Speaker 1: work out. Seems me that more Republicans in Hell, even
44:23
Speaker 1: members of the saner group of Democrats, if they still exist,
44:27
Speaker 1: need to be screaming this as loud as they possibly can.
44:30
Speaker 1: These people are unhinged. From an economic standpoint, six sixteen
44:35
Speaker 1: fifty five KR see the talk station. Bud Herbert motors
44:38
Speaker 1: the folks to call talk station six one finty five
44:43
Speaker 1: cars the talk station. All right, thinking about the unlimited
44:47
Speaker 1: list of demands from government, who's going to pay for
44:49
Speaker 1: it? Along the Democratic Socialist America platform standpoint, here's a thought
44:54
Speaker 1: question for you. If taking one hundred percent of the
44:59
Speaker 1: proceeds of your lif labor is slavery, at what percentage
45:04
Speaker 1: is it not slavery? Listen? I thought it was an
45:07
Speaker 1: interesting comment that made in response to another and a
45:11
Speaker 1: discussion about the socialism. What they want exact from you
45:13
Speaker 1: in order to pay for the stuff they claim to
45:15
Speaker 1: want to give out in the world for free, And
45:17
Speaker 1: it is always your labor that we're talking about here.
45:21
Speaker 1: It's an income tax. People work and they go to
45:23
Speaker 1: work and they earn an hourly wage or whatever they
45:25
Speaker 1: get in return for their labor, and it's taken, sometimes
45:28
Speaker 1: seemingly at an arbitrary level from government. So it is slavery.
45:32
Speaker 1: You have no choice. You are under threat of jail
45:35
Speaker 1: time if you don't pay your taxes. So that's a
45:37
Speaker 1: good question, at what point is it not slavery? Pivoting
45:41
Speaker 1: over an editorial board of Wall Street Journal kind of
45:42
Speaker 1: putting an exclamation point of the comments ahead in the
45:44
Speaker 1: last segment, it's tempting to dismiss Tuesday's primary suite by
45:47
Speaker 1: the Democratic Socialists of America as an artifact of weird
45:51
Speaker 1: New York City. It is that, but also more victories
45:55
Speaker 1: by Marizon Mom Dammy's slate of leftists will change the
45:59
Speaker 1: Democratic Party and perhaps the politics of the country they observe.
46:03
Speaker 1: The three Socialist candidates are congress endorsed by mom DOMI
46:06
Speaker 1: defeated quote unquote establishment Democrats, including two current House incumbents
46:11
Speaker 1: add the races for the New York Legislature, and seven
46:14
Speaker 1: of eight candidates affiliated with the DSA one Tuesday, this
46:18
Speaker 1: was a route for the far left over the left.
46:21
Speaker 1: I thought that was an interesting observation. It's true. Voter
46:25
Speaker 1: turnout was low, as it often is in primaries Cincinnati
46:29
Speaker 1: in the open seat race for New York seventh Congressional districts.
46:32
Speaker 1: Here's where we go with this great example. Leftist Claire
46:35
Speaker 1: Valdez one with a mere three hundred or thirty seven,
46:38
Speaker 1: five hundred and thirty one votes. That's seven point six
46:42
Speaker 1: of that district's five hundred thousand registered voters. Seven point six.
46:49
Speaker 1: Pat your back. You pat yourself on the back of
46:51
Speaker 1: Cincinnati resident. You came in at least twenty five in
46:54
Speaker 1: most areas. Anyway, Her opponent, Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Renoso,
47:00
Speaker 1: support of the district's retiring congressman as well as the
47:03
Speaker 1: Democrat Party itself, which the Journal observe shows the DSA
47:08
Speaker 1: is highly organized and can get out the vote of
47:10
Speaker 1: young progressives who replaced the white centers voters that have
47:14
Speaker 1: fled New York YEP. The rich ones got the hell
47:17
Speaker 1: out and are now living comfortably in Florida, I imagine.
47:24
Speaker 1: Aber Kawas, who won the primary seat for state Senate seat,
47:28
Speaker 1: said she found it reprehensible to apologize for nine to
47:31
Speaker 1: eleven when America hasn't apologized for the system of capitalism
47:35
Speaker 1: and racism and white supremacy. Journal guesses that she won't
47:40
Speaker 1: be going to the twenty fifth anniversary ceremony at Ground Zero. Yeah,
47:43
Speaker 1: that's how far left this whole slate is. Going back
47:46
Speaker 1: to darri Alisa Chevalier, who beat Representative adriano Esplot, leader
47:52
Speaker 1: of an anti Israel protest at Columbia University after the
47:55
Speaker 1: Hamas massacre in twenty twenty three. She was pro Hamas
48:00
Speaker 1: call for abolishing police prisons border see Akin to the
48:02
Speaker 1: DSA's total platform, she is full on. She's the one
48:06
Speaker 1: that referred to Joe Biden as a rapist and war criminal,
48:09
Speaker 1: said the United States has occupied Native American land and
48:11
Speaker 1: called the country a f wording disgrace. Also wants to
48:15
Speaker 1: seize private property again, issues that align perfectly with the
48:18
Speaker 1: DSA's national platform. Journal inquires how could she and the
48:22
Speaker 1: rest of them on Damie slate win? One reason is
48:26
Speaker 1: that Democrats have run America's biggest cities for decades, yet
48:28
Speaker 1: haven't solved the problems of the unsafe streets, lack of
48:31
Speaker 1: affordable apartments, and failing public transit. Representative Dan Goldman's main
48:36
Speaker 1: campaign campaign theme was to impeach Donald Trump, but he lost.
48:41
Speaker 1: They observe as the policies of the left fail. Republicans
48:45
Speaker 1: aren't competitive in New York City. The voters then turned
48:49
Speaker 1: farther left. Another reason for the rise in socialism is
48:53
Speaker 1: the mainstream liberals put so put up so little resistance
48:57
Speaker 1: like other Democrats. Mister Espolot shares the socialists left goals,
49:01
Speaker 1: but wants to get there more gradually, called a feeble
49:04
Speaker 1: answer when young, when angry voters won immediate progress. The
49:08
Speaker 1: defeated Democrats in New York refused to make principled arguments
49:12
Speaker 1: against socialism, like my monetary arguments from a moment ago.
49:16
Speaker 1: It's impossible. That's a straightforward, honest a listen, you can't
49:21
Speaker 1: do it. Has mom dami delivered on free buses. Oh no,
49:24
Speaker 1: that's right. They don't have enough money in the budget,
49:26
Speaker 1: you idiots. After Tuesday, they may offer even less resistance.
49:32
Speaker 1: These centrist Democrats, they will face more socialist challenges across
49:37
Speaker 1: the country, and history says they will try to survive
49:39
Speaker 1: by accommodating the leftist ideas medicare for all, higher income taxes,
49:43
Speaker 1: wealth abolishing ice. The journals suggest these are the going
49:48
Speaker 1: forward Democrat platform agenda items even among centrist Democrats, or
49:52
Speaker 1: I should say formerly dsay a growing force, already captured
49:57
Speaker 1: the mayor's office in Washington, d C. New York and
50:00
Speaker 1: probably coming up Los Angeles. One certain loser from all
50:04
Speaker 1: this will be support for Israel. Mom Damie Slate, also
50:07
Speaker 1: called the Hamas Slate for good reason. It'll be hard
50:11
Speaker 1: for any Democratic candidate for president to be even as
50:14
Speaker 1: supportive of Israel as mister Biden was, except the left
50:17
Speaker 1: try to make cutting off arm sales to Israel a
50:20
Speaker 1: party litmus test. The Journal suggests Republicans might gloat about
50:26
Speaker 1: the far left Democratic term, but it's a mistake. Maybe
50:30
Speaker 1: it'll help them keep somehow seats, but it bodes ill
50:32
Speaker 1: for democracy when the party of the center left swings
50:35
Speaker 1: even harder left. Many Trump Republicans are also dabbling with
50:39
Speaker 1: socialist ideas, socialist vision of class conflict and everything for everybody.
50:45
Speaker 1: Economics has ruined many countries. Sooner or later socialism crashes
50:49
Speaker 1: into reality, but it can do plenty of damage before
50:52
Speaker 1: it does. Thank you, Journal, no kidding. You have an
50:56
Speaker 1: amazing economy economic argument to resist whatever the hell is
51:00
Speaker 1: it that they want out of government, and that is
51:02
Speaker 1: we're broke, we can't pay for it, And soon enough
51:07
Speaker 1: the rich and wealthy here in America to the extent
51:09
Speaker 1: you come knocking on their door where they are currently
51:11
Speaker 1: hiding having left the high tax, heavily regulated states in
51:15
Speaker 1: New York and California. You come knocking on their door
51:18
Speaker 1: in places like Florida and Texas where they enjoy economic
51:21
Speaker 1: liberty and some regulatory freedom, and you take that away
51:24
Speaker 1: from them, They'll find some place ells to go in
51:27
Speaker 1: the world. Six twenty eight fifty five KR. See the
51:31
Speaker 1: talk station Fasten pro roofing my favorite roofers. They're great
51:34
Speaker 1: at what they pick. You above, carcit you talk station
51:37
Speaker 1: pitting over dog lover. I am so I hate to
51:40
Speaker 1: have to read this, but I think it's important to
51:41
Speaker 1: get the information now. If you can adopt an animal,
51:44
Speaker 1: please do so. Consider it anyway, since any animal care
51:47
Speaker 1: having to offer some promotions to help animals find homes.
51:51
Speaker 1: There are currently eight hundred and sixty animals in the
51:55
Speaker 1: care of Cincinnty Animal Care. They got eighty nine brought
51:58
Speaker 1: into their facility last week weekend. Shelter space was already
52:01
Speaker 1: maxed out, and they say peak lost pet season is
52:05
Speaker 1: coming up. I wasn't even aware there was such a thing,
52:07
Speaker 1: but the outcomes manager, a woman named Sidney Harlow, speaking
52:11
Speaker 1: with local news Fox nineteen on that fireworks, summer storms
52:15
Speaker 1: and peak that means peak stray seasons around the corner,
52:18
Speaker 1: and I guess I can see dogs running away in storms.
52:21
Speaker 1: We know we had a dog that reacted terribly with thunderstorms. Anyway,
52:25
Speaker 1: challenge is going to grow. She said, they need adopters, fosters,
52:29
Speaker 1: advocates to help make room before July arrives. So it
52:33
Speaker 1: helped free up space and shelter and well and reconnect you.
52:37
Speaker 1: If you've lost your dog, that's one of the dogs
52:38
Speaker 1: that ran away, that's what the shelter's for. Your dog
52:41
Speaker 1: may be there. They want to get you involved with that,
52:43
Speaker 1: so they're offering an adoption promotion and a free microchip initiative.
52:47
Speaker 1: Between June twenty six and twenty eighth. The shelter is
52:50
Speaker 1: waiting adoption fees for dogs and cats six months in
52:54
Speaker 1: older only a five dollars service flee a fee and
52:56
Speaker 1: an applicable dog license is going to be applied. Offer val
53:00
Speaker 1: did both shelter locations, Coleraine Avenue and Dana Avenue, Pet
53:03
Speaker 1: Smart Adoption Centers and foster homes as well as according
53:07
Speaker 1: to since an Animal Care so consider adoption. We've adopted
53:11
Speaker 1: dogs before, and you know, for some reason, you feel
53:15
Speaker 1: a lot better about adopting a poor, perhaps abused animal
53:19
Speaker 1: than you would if you go to a puppy mill,
53:21
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Since Saint Police arrested a
53:23
Speaker 1: sixty two year old man. This is four days after
53:25
Speaker 1: a Millvale shooting that left three people dead. Now facing
53:29
Speaker 1: three counts of murder in the June twentieth shooting, James
53:32
Speaker 1: Lewis was arrested at Cornered to Cincinnati Police news release,
53:36
Speaker 1: Officers who were dispatched at the twenty two hundred block
53:38
Speaker 1: of Millvale Court, a residential area, about quarter to eleven
53:41
Speaker 1: pm June twentieth. That's where they found thirty eight year
53:44
Speaker 1: old Kenneth Burton, fifty three year old Teresa Dudley, and
53:47
Speaker 1: forty one year old Brianna Burton with gunshot wounds. Fire
53:51
Speaker 1: personnel arrived as well determined that all three had died
53:54
Speaker 1: on the scene. Not immediately clear when Lewis was his
53:57
Speaker 1: first scheduled to appear in court. Currently an inmate at
53:59
Speaker 1: the Hamilton County Detention Center. It's six thirty five right now.
54:03
Speaker 1: At fifty five KRCD talk station. I love to hear
54:05
Speaker 1: from if you got something, see the talk station fifty
54:10
Speaker 1: five KRCD talk station aty Friday eighty. Yeah, I regularly
54:15
Speaker 1: commented the wheels of justice obviously spends slowly, and you know,
54:18
Speaker 1: it takes a little while to bear some fruit, most
54:19
Speaker 1: notably in the more complex cases. You've got to gather
54:22
Speaker 1: information and evidence. You've got to put enough information together
54:25
Speaker 1: to actually prosecute so you can commit and well you
54:28
Speaker 1: can find defendants guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. It takes
54:32
Speaker 1: time and effort, and yeah, it was. It was an
54:35
Speaker 1: important thing that Donald Trump signed an executive order in
54:39
Speaker 1: March creating the Task Force to Eliminate Fraud. Of course,
54:43
Speaker 1: Vice President j. D. Vance at the head of it.
54:45
Speaker 1: And I know my friend Jay, who calls in regularly,
54:47
Speaker 1: is like, what the hell's going on? Where's JD Vans?
54:49
Speaker 1: Where's Jdvan's one. That's when I go back to my point.
54:51
Speaker 1: You know, this doesn't happen overnight. These are very complex cases,
54:55
Speaker 1: but it bore fruit. The other day, June twenty third,
54:57
Speaker 1: Justice Department announced it had charge four one hundred and
55:00
Speaker 1: fifty defendants for various healthcare fraud schemes totally more than
55:05
Speaker 1: six and a half a billion would be dollars hmm.
55:13
Speaker 1: Charge defendants were guilty of, or actually alleged to be
55:15
Speaker 1: guilty of, a variety of schemes. Officials called a record
55:18
Speaker 1: setting action against fraud. FBI Director Cash betels that the
55:21
Speaker 1: charges arose from a new era of investigating fraud, and
55:25
Speaker 1: we get to the point where it works great when
55:27
Speaker 1: everyone is cooperating together. The level of cooperation that went
55:31
Speaker 1: into this one is pretty amazing considering the division we
55:34
Speaker 1: have in this country generally speaking, most notably between the
55:36
Speaker 1: Blue and the Red states. Anyway, they cited one example,
55:39
Speaker 1: eighty nine million dollar healthcare fraud scheme. Guy was accused
55:43
Speaker 1: of billing insurers from medically unnecessary cardiovascular tests involving college athletes,
55:48
Speaker 1: rubber stamping the result as normal after without even reviewing them.
55:52
Speaker 1: This happens all the time. Federal Trade Commission Chair Andrew
55:57
Speaker 1: Ferguson noted that five and this is a great one
56:01
Speaker 1: one of the cases they have in this roundup of
56:03
Speaker 1: the four hundred and fifty A case in Nevada nurse
56:06
Speaker 1: practitioner allegedly built medicaid for nearly one billion dollars in
56:11
Speaker 1: skin substitute alligraphts. That's the procedure anyway, nurse practitioner apparently
56:18
Speaker 1: performing these allographs on elderly vulnerable people in hospices nursing homes,
56:23
Speaker 1: submitting the claims. Now here's where the figures show up.
56:27
Speaker 1: So Andrew Ferguson pointed out that Medicare was only five
56:30
Speaker 1: years ago paying out less than one billion dollars for
56:34
Speaker 1: skin substitutes via this alligraph procedure. Fast forward to twenty
56:38
Speaker 1: twenty five, payments had increased to almost fifteen billion, programs
56:46
Speaker 1: which Andrew Ferguson said were riddled with fraud. Going back
56:49
Speaker 1: to the nurse practitioner herself responsible for one billion dollars
56:53
Speaker 1: in these false claims. It's amazing. Officials spoke of the
56:59
Speaker 1: new methods of attacking fraud. Unprecedented cooperation was cited as
57:03
Speaker 1: one of the reasons for this success. Men that Oz,
57:07
Speaker 1: administrator of the US Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
57:10
Speaker 1: As we now use these techniques that were historically never
57:12
Speaker 1: thought of. Instead of just flagging problems, we build cases,
57:15
Speaker 1: and by the time our law enforcement partners are ready
57:17
Speaker 1: to move we aim to hand them a file that
57:19
Speaker 1: is already complete, already ready. How do they go about
57:22
Speaker 1: doing that? Forty five states and attorneys general involved in
57:27
Speaker 1: the charges yesterday stepped up and cooperated. Todd blanchacting US
57:33
Speaker 1: Attorney General, said, for the first time in modern history,
57:35
Speaker 1: everyone is working together. Now we need to is get
57:38
Speaker 1: the other five states on board. I'll sit here and speculate,
57:40
Speaker 1: and as you might as well, I wonder which five
57:42
Speaker 1: states aren't cooperating six point five billion dollars from just
57:48
Speaker 1: four hundred and fifty people. And of course this remains
57:51
Speaker 1: a tip of the iceberg squirt. I have Look who's
57:54
Speaker 1: on the phone, Jay, Welcome to the Morning Show. Happy Friday,
57:56
Speaker 1: eve to you thought I might hear from at least
57:58
Speaker 1: I was hoping, so.
58:00
Speaker 6: Man, I'll tell you that this is not the topic
58:02
Speaker 6: I was going to talk about. But you're like dangling
58:04
Speaker 6: a bait out in front.
58:05
Speaker 1: Of me, sometimes reflection of my desperation to get some
58:12
Speaker 1: calls flowing in here. Jay, I don't know.
58:14
Speaker 6: Yeah, Hey, any time you start talking medicaid fraud, it's
58:18
Speaker 6: like my version of cocaine. I go running for a phone.
58:20
Speaker 6: I can't help it.
58:21
Speaker 3: I Hey, hey, well that's good news.
58:24
Speaker 6: I'm glad that everybody's finally waking up. I don't I
58:28
Speaker 6: would like somebody to do an investigation of what the
58:30
Speaker 6: hell took so long? Like whenever I called Dave Yost
58:34
Speaker 6: fraud hotline and administration kept telling me that, yeah, this
58:39
Speaker 6: doesn't get we didn't. We didn't take it to him
58:42
Speaker 6: because it doesn't. It's not really fraud. We've heard Keith
58:45
Speaker 6: Faber on your program talk about it's not really fraud.
58:48
Speaker 6: What a difference a few years makes when it's a
58:50
Speaker 6: campaign year and everybody wants to get a new job.
58:53
Speaker 6: And then whenever Washington, DC says we're gonna get serious
58:56
Speaker 6: about this, all the Rhino states, including ours, just on
59:00
Speaker 6: a fallen line, and all of a sudden, Faber and
59:03
Speaker 6: Prague and Dave Yost and everybody who was keeping their
59:07
Speaker 6: mouths shut and head down because fraud equals good money
59:10
Speaker 6: in Ohio. You know that's good GDP for a governor
59:13
Speaker 6: who needs it badly created a whole industry. Now they're
59:16
Speaker 6: all fraud hawks. But hey, the reason I was calling,
59:19
Speaker 6: and I'll keep it brief. I read an article on
59:21
Speaker 6: Newsmax about Trump met with the CEOs of all the
59:25
Speaker 6: major defense contractors and said you're not doing enough to
59:27
Speaker 6: ramp up production. At the end, the final paragraph talks
59:32
Speaker 6: about the CEOs told the press, well, we can't ramp up.
59:36
Speaker 6: The only way we can ramp up and invest in
59:38
Speaker 6: our businesses is if we get funding from Congress. Now,
59:41
Speaker 6: think about how ass backwards that is. Do you think
59:44
Speaker 6: Procter and Gamble whatever, say, we can't take profits and
59:48
Speaker 6: put it into R and D and expand capacity until
59:51
Speaker 6: customers start buying it. And this is the problem with
59:55
Speaker 6: this is this is why Russia on a shoestring budget
59:58
Speaker 6: is out producing US on five one hundred and fifty
1:00:00
Speaker 6: millimeters artillery rounds like two to one, on like one
1:00:05
Speaker 6: to one hundredth of the budget because the Congress is
1:00:08
Speaker 6: set up this DFAR. If you want to be a
1:00:10
Speaker 6: defense contractor, all their regulations and waste and fat and
1:00:14
Speaker 6: the abuse that goes along with it allows these guys
1:00:17
Speaker 6: to sit on her ass. And it's a form of
1:00:20
Speaker 6: communism or socialism where they don't lift a finger until
1:00:24
Speaker 6: they get funding versus real world capitalism that if you
1:00:27
Speaker 6: have demand and you want to capture a biggest share
1:00:30
Speaker 6: of the market, that you take some profits and you
1:00:33
Speaker 6: start building out capacity, and with the idea that there
1:00:37
Speaker 6: is a forecast that you're going to get more of it,
1:00:40
Speaker 6: that you have to take the risk. Not in defense contracting,
1:00:44
Speaker 6: they will sit on her hands until the money shows
1:00:46
Speaker 6: up and then they will start to expand capacity.
1:00:49
Speaker 1: Understand, but I'm not defending the military industrial complex here, Jason,
1:00:53
Speaker 1: don't take my words the wrong way. But I will
1:00:55
Speaker 1: observe that if P and G is developing a new
1:00:57
Speaker 1: product or experiences in in increase in demand, that's not
1:01:02
Speaker 1: usually sort of a temporary increase in demand. It's given
1:01:04
Speaker 1: the products they make, you know, consumer products regularly used
1:01:07
Speaker 1: and consumed, probably on an even basis, maybe ramping up
1:01:11
Speaker 1: over time with population increases or whatever. But they they
1:01:15
Speaker 1: can manage the increase in production because they see a
1:01:19
Speaker 1: perpetual demand for the product. Military manufacturing, you know, we
1:01:24
Speaker 1: go through thousands and thousands of rockets and bombs and
1:01:27
Speaker 1: defending temporary conflicts. That demand and that need to replenish
1:01:32
Speaker 1: supplies is just a finite length. Once you replenished supplies,
1:01:36
Speaker 1: the demand for those rockets and hardware got drops back
1:01:39
Speaker 1: down again. And because we've well, we've filled the reserve tanks.
1:01:42
Speaker 1: In other words, so they can make an army. Well,
1:01:44
Speaker 1: then what do we do. We got all this extra capacity,
1:01:46
Speaker 1: you're not buying any more rockets and missiles so that
1:01:49
Speaker 1: I can hear, that is the response. But I don't
1:01:51
Speaker 1: disagree with your point. You think they able to manage
1:01:55
Speaker 1: supply and demand issues given how many years they have
1:01:57
Speaker 1: been well servicing the US milit Harry, I appreciate that. Jay,
1:02:01
Speaker 1: Thanks for here, Thanks for calling in six forty eight
1:02:03
Speaker 1: right now fifty five krc DE talk station. You two
1:02:05
Speaker 1: can chime in if you choose to give me a call.
1:02:07
Speaker 1: First talk station six fifty three, fifty five krc DE
1:02:12
Speaker 1: talk station. Well, something else that finally coming to pass
1:02:18
Speaker 1: Antifa getting some justice served on him FAFO, somebody wrote
1:02:23
Speaker 1: at the top of the article, with Texas attack on
1:02:28
Speaker 1: the Federal Immigration Facility year ago has resulted in some prosecutions,
1:02:32
Speaker 1: some guilty, some convictions as well as some guilty please
1:02:35
Speaker 1: and a lot of prison time. US Department of Justice
1:02:40
Speaker 1: brought the hammer down on officially designated terrorists from Antifa.
1:02:46
Speaker 1: Now one guy that was convicted and sentenced, the alleged
1:02:49
Speaker 1: leader of the North Texas cell, guy named Benjamin Hannele's Song,
1:02:53
Speaker 1: described as a former Marine reservist Federal Jordan. Federal judge
1:02:58
Speaker 1: handed him a one hundred year prison sentence for the
1:03:01
Speaker 1: attempted murder of an Alvarado police officer at the suburban
1:03:05
Speaker 1: Worth Prairie Land Detention Center. This happened July fourth, last year,
1:03:10
Speaker 1: celebrating the independence of the United States of America. Sure
1:03:14
Speaker 1: the way it should be celebrated. Five of the seven
1:03:16
Speaker 1: other ANTIFA members receive sentences of fifty years each, one
1:03:22
Speaker 1: remaining member getting seventy years and another got thirty years
1:03:26
Speaker 1: for their respective parts in this quote unquote protest, which
1:03:29
Speaker 1: did feature explosives, vandalism, and rioting. Todd Blanche, acting Attorney General, said,
1:03:35
Speaker 1: the sentences handed down today make clear that ANTIFA terrorists
1:03:38
Speaker 1: who attack law enforcement and federal facilities will face swift
1:03:41
Speaker 1: and uncompromising justice. Their violent extremism is no place in
1:03:45
Speaker 1: our country, and the Department of Justice will continue to
1:03:47
Speaker 1: aggressively investigate, disrupt, and prosecute those who threatened law enforcement
1:03:51
Speaker 1: officers or undermine the rule of law. So all you
1:03:54
Speaker 1: anti ice folks taking into the streets, jump in front
1:03:57
Speaker 1: of cars and accosting police officers. Hey, maybe you're number
1:04:00
Speaker 1: will be up as well. This song leader Guy acquired
1:04:05
Speaker 1: firearms that he distributed to co defendants, recruited members at
1:04:08
Speaker 1: gun ranges and combat sessions he conducted. Testimony and other
1:04:12
Speaker 1: evidence at trial established that the defendants were members of
1:04:14
Speaker 1: the of a North Texas antifoss cell, part of a
1:04:17
Speaker 1: larger Milton enterprise made up a network of individuals and
1:04:20
Speaker 1: small groups well describing an ideology that explicitly calls for
1:04:24
Speaker 1: the overthrow of the United States government. Yeah, you're all
1:04:27
Speaker 1: getting together and you are committing acts in furtherance of
1:04:30
Speaker 1: the overthrow of the United States government. You are going
1:04:32
Speaker 1: to be prosecuted, and I'm glad this message has come
1:04:34
Speaker 1: out serious jail time. You're not in Hamilton County. You're
1:04:38
Speaker 1: in a federal court, and this is the Trump administration,
1:04:42
Speaker 1: and I'm hoping we will see more of these. A
1:04:44
Speaker 1: warning to the others out there who think it's appropriate
1:04:47
Speaker 1: to break the law and hurt police officers or ice
1:04:51
Speaker 1: officers because they're doing their job enforcing laws that are
1:04:54
Speaker 1: on the books. Huh, amazing that six fifty five covered
1:05:01
Speaker 1: up with six fifty six coming up on an hour
1:05:03
Speaker 1: with signal ninety nine should be on the phone after
1:05:05
Speaker 1: the top of the our news we got lots of
1:05:06
Speaker 1: topics score with her, and then fast forward to eight
1:05:08
Speaker 1: o five with Congressman Warren Davidson'll be right back. We
1:05:11
Speaker 1: put the app in happening over seven oh five, coming
1:05:30
Speaker 1: up on seven oh six five cases. It's a spicy
1:05:34
Speaker 1: meme page for cops, firefighters, medics and dispatchers, but also
1:05:38
Speaker 1: a page where we throw light on the shady pineapple
1:05:40
Speaker 1: going on in the area. Welcome back to the fifty
1:05:42
Speaker 1: five krs Morning Shore. That site is on Facebook signal
1:05:45
Speaker 1: ninety nine. A lot of people following you signal ninety nine,
1:05:49
Speaker 1: thirty four thousand. I wish I had numbers like that.
1:05:51
Speaker 1: It's good to have you back on the program. I
1:05:53
Speaker 1: just want to thank you on behalf of all the
1:05:55
Speaker 1: all the residents in the greater Cincinnati area for the
1:05:57
Speaker 1: hard work that you and your team do while come back.
1:06:02
Speaker 3: Good morning, Brian, How are you.
1:06:03
Speaker 1: I'm doing pretty good. My daughter's getting married on Saturday,
1:06:06
Speaker 1: putting a smile on my face. Taking tomorrow off Gary
1:06:08
Speaker 1: Jeff Walker is going to cover for me, so I
1:06:10
Speaker 1: can well do my part in doing whatever else is
1:06:12
Speaker 1: needed to get the wedding off the ground. In the rain.
1:06:15
Speaker 1: But I'm very happy about the wedding, so overall great
1:06:17
Speaker 1: mood in spite of the fact that it's going to
1:06:18
Speaker 1: be raining tomorrow or Saturday. So whatever, my daughter isn't worry.
1:06:23
Speaker 3: That's all about it.
1:06:24
Speaker 6: Thank you stop that rain for you.
1:06:26
Speaker 1: Get the whole group, all thirty four thousand of your
1:06:29
Speaker 1: followers over on Facebook to pray for decent weather at
1:06:32
Speaker 1: least for the wedding ceremony. Anyway, Signal ninety nine. It's
1:06:35
Speaker 1: been at the top of our news and we've got
1:06:37
Speaker 1: a lot to talk about a lot of the stories
1:06:38
Speaker 1: that you broke, and one of the stories you broke
1:06:40
Speaker 1: that I wasn't even aware of. Maybe that's me just
1:06:43
Speaker 1: not paying close enough attention to what's going on Batavia.
1:06:45
Speaker 1: But we find out that the residents of the village
1:06:48
Speaker 1: of Betavior are going to be able to vote on
1:06:49
Speaker 1: whether to dissolve the village, and you made a rather
1:06:52
Speaker 1: startling announcement on Facebook or on Facebook the other day
1:06:55
Speaker 1: mentioning that the I guess that was it. The trustees
1:06:59
Speaker 1: of the village. This ordinance brought up on an emergency
1:07:02
Speaker 1: basis to pay all non elected employees of the village
1:07:06
Speaker 1: a full year's salary. That kind of raised your eyebrow
1:07:10
Speaker 1: for a variety of reasons. First off, can do you
1:07:12
Speaker 1: know why? I'm just kind of curious. What's the basis
1:07:16
Speaker 1: for the disillusion or dissolving the city of Batavia. Should
1:07:19
Speaker 1: the residents vote for it, what's the impetus behind that?
1:07:23
Speaker 3: Well, taking care of your employees is never a bad
1:07:29
Speaker 3: thay doing it in secret?
1:07:32
Speaker 1: Well no, yeah, but before we get to that, and
1:07:35
Speaker 1: that's the you know, the red flag issue. Why are
1:07:38
Speaker 1: they considering dissolving the village notwiderstanding, whatever happens the employees.
1:07:42
Speaker 3: Oh okay, Well, so the backstory on that is, oh,
1:07:48
Speaker 3: it's it's massive. So they had ten guys in there,
1:07:52
Speaker 3: was doing these huge developments, making tax abatements, making decisions.
1:07:56
Speaker 3: It can affect the airport, it can affect this, it
1:07:58
Speaker 3: can affect the school. The village did. Residents didn't want it,
1:08:04
Speaker 3: and they repeatedly went to counsel and so we don't
1:08:07
Speaker 3: want this. You know, growth is one thing, but this
1:08:11
Speaker 3: is ridiculous and it's going to impact all of this,
1:08:14
Speaker 3: and we don't want it. And they pretty much told
1:08:17
Speaker 3: the citizens, we don't really care what you want, and
1:08:19
Speaker 3: they and they did. They voted how they wanted, and
1:08:24
Speaker 3: they kept back in it and kept back in it,
1:08:26
Speaker 3: and they finally got to the point where they were
1:08:29
Speaker 3: going to have to let ken Geist go, so he retired.
1:08:32
Speaker 3: But he wasn't the only one involved. You know, it
1:08:37
Speaker 3: comes down to this. When you're elected, you're a voice
1:08:40
Speaker 3: for your constituent. It doesn't matter how you feel about something.
1:08:46
Speaker 3: You represent the people that voted for you.
1:08:48
Speaker 1: Sounds like a parallel can be drawn between the City
1:08:50
Speaker 1: of Cincinnati what they did to the Hyde Park voters
1:08:52
Speaker 1: in terms of that development project, ignoring the will of
1:08:55
Speaker 1: the constituents and moving in their own direction, only to
1:08:57
Speaker 1: be shot down by that ballot initiative. So we have
1:08:59
Speaker 1: a peril on that one, correct, So.
1:09:03
Speaker 3: They said, you know what, okay, you know, mess around,
1:09:07
Speaker 3: find out and they started collecting signatures to get it
1:09:12
Speaker 3: on the ballot to dissolve the village.
1:09:14
Speaker 1: Fair enough, all right, that's the back to population density development,
1:09:19
Speaker 1: all okay, I get it all. Leading us to your
1:09:22
Speaker 1: evelation on Signal ninety nine Facebook page that the village
1:09:26
Speaker 1: emergency motion, this petition of this proposition to pay the
1:09:31
Speaker 1: non elected employees of the village a full year's salary.
1:09:34
Speaker 1: Now let's pivot over to that, because it came out
1:09:37
Speaker 1: of nowhere apparently.
1:09:40
Speaker 3: Well, we knew about it weeks ago, which is why
1:09:43
Speaker 3: we put the public records request in. So when I
1:09:47
Speaker 3: got say email back a couple of days ago from
1:09:50
Speaker 3: the village administrator, it said, Carolyn, attached to the document
1:09:56
Speaker 3: of the ordinance that was passed at the council meeting
1:09:58
Speaker 3: last night, there were no prior records that match your requests, chick.
1:10:06
Speaker 3: So I've put a record's request and then magically, out
1:10:10
Speaker 3: of nowhere, this emergency resolution appears to pass the severance package.
1:10:16
Speaker 3: So you know, that's shady, Brian, that's shady. And it's
1:10:22
Speaker 3: not the first time the Tavians done it. You know,
1:10:24
Speaker 3: they know that if they talk on the phone, or
1:10:26
Speaker 3: they talk in person, or they have secret, quiet little
1:10:29
Speaker 3: meetings and conversations, and they don't text or email, you know,
1:10:34
Speaker 3: or send out documentation. But I don't believe for a
1:10:38
Speaker 3: second that there aren't prior records. But I but I
1:10:41
Speaker 3: can't prove it either. So well, okay, here we are.
1:10:46
Speaker 1: Yeah, how could there not be prior records or some
1:10:49
Speaker 1: sort of discussion about this? How does one bring an
1:10:51
Speaker 1: emergency motion that has the level of detail that this
1:10:55
Speaker 1: Ordinance fifteen seventy three Dash twenty six has their head
1:10:58
Speaker 1: will have been drafts of it at minimum. I mean,
1:11:01
Speaker 1: you know, lawyers go through multiple drafts, they have counsel
1:11:04
Speaker 1: look at these. There have to be communications between the
1:11:06
Speaker 1: you know, the the lawyers and the board members. I suppose,
1:11:10
Speaker 1: you know, communications between the various members about whether or
1:11:13
Speaker 1: not they wag whose idea was it to advance this
1:11:15
Speaker 1: in the first place. There's got to be something. This
1:11:18
Speaker 1: reminds me a gang gang of five, gang of five stuff,
1:11:20
Speaker 1: drawing another parallel to the City of Cincinnati.
1:11:23
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, it's pretty shady, which is you know, which
1:11:26
Speaker 3: is why we blew it up. So I have never
1:11:30
Speaker 3: signaled ninety nine. We have never waited until this last
1:11:35
Speaker 3: week about whether the village should dissolve or not. We've
1:11:37
Speaker 3: always put the information out there and let the citizen
1:11:41
Speaker 3: because I don't live in Batavia, none of us do.
1:11:44
Speaker 3: None of us live in Batavia, So you know, we
1:11:48
Speaker 3: figure that's up to them to decide. They're the citizens
1:11:51
Speaker 3: that live there. And Shavia is a quaint, cute little village. However,
1:11:57
Speaker 3: it's severely mismanaged and has for years, you know, for years,
1:12:03
Speaker 3: so people are tired of it. So this is the
1:12:06
Speaker 3: first time we said, you know, maybe it's not such
1:12:09
Speaker 3: a bad idea that they dissolve this. This is how
1:12:11
Speaker 3: they're going to play with no transparency and quiet little
1:12:16
Speaker 3: emergency meetings to pass this and no input from the public.
1:12:21
Speaker 3: I mean, the taxpayers are going to pay for this, right, well,
1:12:26
Speaker 3: the taxpayers should have had to say absolutely.
1:12:30
Speaker 1: And I mean, I think this is and I know
1:12:33
Speaker 1: and I think it's a great thing. Quite often going
1:12:35
Speaker 1: back to the City of Cincinnati when I'm talking about that,
1:12:37
Speaker 1: and I think of the listening audience obviously is beyond
1:12:40
Speaker 1: the limits of the City of Cincinnati. But it's an
1:12:42
Speaker 1: issue of good governance. It's an issue that you know,
1:12:45
Speaker 1: it's reflective of the broader problem with government generally speaking,
1:12:49
Speaker 1: not representing the will of the people that sent them
1:12:52
Speaker 1: to office. So I think it's an important illustration. Again,
1:12:54
Speaker 1: we've got a couple of parallels to be drawn between
1:12:56
Speaker 1: what happened in downtown Cincinnai, what's going on Batavia. Maybe
1:12:59
Speaker 1: it's happening in other listeners own areas, townships, or villages
1:13:03
Speaker 1: or whatever governing body they have, and that they live in.
1:13:07
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, you know when I lost my job last year,
1:13:10
Speaker 3: when they restructured and eliminated my position, I got a
1:13:13
Speaker 3: two week severance pass package. Right, I know, you know
1:13:17
Speaker 3: it's pretty typical to get you know, a three month
1:13:20
Speaker 3: or a month or you know, a year is very
1:13:24
Speaker 3: very generous.
1:13:25
Speaker 2: I know that.
1:13:26
Speaker 3: I believe Amelia did that when they dissolved. But it
1:13:33
Speaker 3: doesn't have to be done quietly behind closed doors and
1:13:36
Speaker 3: sneak it through, right, but let the public way in.
1:13:39
Speaker 1: Let the public way and right one of them can
1:13:41
Speaker 1: raise their hand and say, wait a second, how can
1:13:43
Speaker 1: the severance package is so large? Like you if you
1:13:46
Speaker 1: remember I lived in the village, you can say, I listen,
1:13:48
Speaker 1: I got canned the other year last year, and I
1:13:50
Speaker 1: only got two weeks. How do you how do you? You know,
1:13:53
Speaker 1: how do you convince me that the taxpayer dollars are
1:13:56
Speaker 1: worth it to spend on a full year of severns.
1:13:58
Speaker 1: Maybe they could answer the question, maybe you would have
1:14:01
Speaker 1: satisfied the village residents like okay, yeah that's fair or not.
1:14:05
Speaker 1: But if you don't have a discussion about it in public,
1:14:07
Speaker 1: then you're never going to have the questions answered and to.
1:14:10
Speaker 3: Be honest with you. I mean, I've been a trustee before.
1:14:14
Speaker 3: You can listen to what they have to say, and
1:14:16
Speaker 3: then you can vote accordingly anyway, but at least you
1:14:20
Speaker 3: let them have a say. You know, maybe they change
1:14:23
Speaker 3: your opinion, maybe they don't, but holy cow, it's so transparent. Though.
1:14:29
Speaker 1: Well, they may have inadvertently served the dissolution of the
1:14:33
Speaker 1: Village of a Tavia voters because this is just another
1:14:36
Speaker 1: illustration of them doing something under cloak of darkness that
1:14:40
Speaker 1: make fly in the face of the voters. So they'll
1:14:42
Speaker 1: have their say in November. I've guess Signal ninety nine
1:14:44
Speaker 1: we got more to talk about it, including oh, you
1:14:46
Speaker 1: were right and those on social media were wrong? Plus
1:14:49
Speaker 1: violence generally speaking, what in the hell's going on in
1:14:51
Speaker 1: Judge Bloom's courtroom or in the juvenile court system generally speaking?
1:14:55
Speaker 1: Plenty coming up with Signal ninety nine Deep talk Station
1:15:00
Speaker 1: six twenty Here I fift you have Kercit Talk Station
1:15:02
Speaker 1: A very happy Friday Eve to you. Signal ninety nine.
1:15:05
Speaker 1: Find her on Facebook, follow her like so many thousands
1:15:08
Speaker 1: of other people have, because she does not make up
1:15:10
Speaker 1: stories or they. Signal ninety nine is are collective. I
1:15:12
Speaker 1: should always try to point that out. You know, the
1:15:15
Speaker 1: figurehead is on the phone right now, we just call
1:15:17
Speaker 1: her Signal ninety nine. But just basically, we'll call them
1:15:20
Speaker 1: whistleblowers behind the scenes in government, generally speaking, police fire
1:15:24
Speaker 1: as well as you know, city council, also people filing
1:15:28
Speaker 1: an information from Batavia as well. But we do not
1:15:31
Speaker 1: make up stories on Signal ninety nine. That would severely
1:15:34
Speaker 1: damage our credibility with our peeps. You had to say
1:15:36
Speaker 1: that the other day because you were accused of lying
1:15:38
Speaker 1: and being a racist. This was in connection with what
1:15:41
Speaker 1: you brought to the plate, which was records which verified
1:15:44
Speaker 1: that on Friday night, between Smail Park and Fountain Square,
1:15:47
Speaker 1: what was between two and three hundred individuals at least.
1:15:50
Speaker 1: Follow up reporting verified the number of juveniles that were
1:15:52
Speaker 1: running them up. Ken Kober talked about this on the
1:15:54
Speaker 1: show the other day. But you were right, and this
1:15:58
Speaker 1: is the kind of thing that was not real ported
1:16:00
Speaker 1: in local news, which was where the allegations came from
1:16:03
Speaker 1: that you were lying. Oh, if this actually happened, it
1:16:06
Speaker 1: would be in local news reporting. No it wasn't. Fox
1:16:09
Speaker 1: nineteen ultimately followed up and confirmed what you had to
1:16:12
Speaker 1: say on the website a couple of days earlier, Signal
1:16:15
Speaker 1: ninety nine. You reaction to that, and also your reaction
1:16:17
Speaker 1: to being accused of racism because you pointed out that
1:16:20
Speaker 1: these juveniles were running them up. At no time did
1:16:23
Speaker 1: you even say anything about the color of their skin.
1:16:25
Speaker 1: And I don't even think anybody knows to this day
1:16:26
Speaker 1: what color the kids were.
1:16:29
Speaker 3: You know, Brian, I rarely speak to the race of anybody,
1:16:35
Speaker 3: and you know, I get hammered for that a lot,
1:16:38
Speaker 3: and they go, why don't you just say the race?
1:16:41
Speaker 3: And I say it, and I always say the same thing. Okay,
1:16:45
Speaker 3: you're making a point that most of the violent crime
1:16:48
Speaker 3: committed in Cincinnati are by members of the black community. However,
1:16:54
Speaker 3: the victims of the violent crime are majority of the
1:16:58
Speaker 3: black community. So I don't see the point in constantly
1:17:02
Speaker 3: bringing up race or bringing up race at all. It
1:17:05
Speaker 3: doesn't matter. So if you can't figure out on Juneteenth
1:17:12
Speaker 3: the race of you know, two to three hundred juveniles
1:17:16
Speaker 3: attacking people running around playing whack a mole with the cops,
1:17:21
Speaker 3: I don't know what to tell you. You probably need
1:17:23
Speaker 3: to do some some brain teasers or something and figure
1:17:26
Speaker 3: it out. Maybe take a critical thinking class, I don't know,
1:17:30
Speaker 3: call me crazy, but but no, I no, I am
1:17:34
Speaker 3: not racist. And for those that keep saying that I am,
1:17:39
Speaker 3: I don't really care what they think. People that know
1:17:42
Speaker 3: me know better, so you know, but being called a
1:17:46
Speaker 3: liar and accused of making stuff up, oh no, kitties
1:17:50
Speaker 3: got claws and I'll come back every single.
1:17:53
Speaker 1: Day is because the only time you come out and
1:17:56
Speaker 1: point this kind of thing out is when you've got
1:17:58
Speaker 1: proof evidence back up what you're claiming. In this particular case,
1:18:02
Speaker 1: you had the CAD screen shots with the computer electronic
1:18:04
Speaker 1: records of all the calls that came in reporting the
1:18:07
Speaker 1: well the criminal activity that these juveniles were engaged in,
1:18:10
Speaker 1: and it was a long series of CAD in CAD
1:18:13
Speaker 1: screenshots on this. How did you get those to of
1:18:16
Speaker 1: course document and support what you were talking about in
1:18:19
Speaker 1: your reporting on what happened?
1:18:22
Speaker 3: Well, the night that happ Friday night, my phone caught
1:18:25
Speaker 3: on fire, okay, and I was getting ready to go
1:18:28
Speaker 3: to bed, and I was like, okay, I need to
1:18:30
Speaker 3: get this out. So you know, I did the post
1:18:34
Speaker 3: and I logged. I immediately logged off and got ready
1:18:39
Speaker 3: to go to bed, and I continued to get officers
1:18:43
Speaker 3: reaching out, officers, officers, officers, this is crazy. You should
1:18:47
Speaker 3: see it. And they're describing what's going on. And then
1:18:52
Speaker 3: then I did go to bed, and when I woke up,
1:18:56
Speaker 3: I had the CAD screenshots and that's only one cat.
1:19:02
Speaker 3: By the way, that's only one CAT report. So every
1:19:07
Speaker 3: officer that worked at we're talking about thirty one total
1:19:10
Speaker 3: CPD units as well as two drone units, they all
1:19:14
Speaker 3: have cats. So when I woke up the next morning,
1:19:19
Speaker 3: I had those screenshots and I was like, okay, but
1:19:23
Speaker 3: I didn't have time to address it right away. So
1:19:26
Speaker 3: I thought, Okay, I'm going to write a little article
1:19:29
Speaker 3: and include these CAD screenshots. But I did want to.
1:19:33
Speaker 3: I redacted the name of a victim out that got
1:19:36
Speaker 3: attacked by a mob of thirty juveniles. And I'm calling
1:19:41
Speaker 3: it a mob because that's what they were. This was
1:19:42
Speaker 3: a wilding takeover. This was a wilding takeover. And they
1:19:48
Speaker 3: ran from Robling Bridge to Smell Park, to the tunnel
1:19:51
Speaker 3: under Fountain Square, to Government Square to Walnut. I mean
1:19:55
Speaker 3: every time the police showed up, they would disperse and
1:20:00
Speaker 3: then they would regroup, so they were communicating. This was orchestrated.
1:20:05
Speaker 3: This wasn't just kids. Running around having a good time.
1:20:10
Speaker 3: This was orchestrated. It was it was organized. So every
1:20:15
Speaker 3: time the police would show up, they'd scatter, they'd go,
1:20:17
Speaker 3: they regrouped somewhere else. So you know, the CPD works tirelessly,
1:20:25
Speaker 3: including swat all a CBS, two district three units, three
1:20:32
Speaker 3: district two units, two drone units. They all worked together
1:20:36
Speaker 3: to try to keep most of the citizens as many
1:20:39
Speaker 3: as they could face from these mobs. So so yeah,
1:20:45
Speaker 3: I did write the article and I did post the
1:20:47
Speaker 3: screenshots of one cad. Excuse me, there are more cads
1:20:54
Speaker 3: if you know, if you want to get them, they
1:20:57
Speaker 3: can put in records requests for them. I know we're
1:21:01
Speaker 3: waiting on the drone footage because I had a bunch
1:21:03
Speaker 3: of officers tell me, you've got to get the drone footage.
1:21:05
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it's going to be off the hook. The
1:21:09
Speaker 3: only problem is they have to redact so much in
1:21:14
Speaker 3: drone footage. You know, if it flies over somebody's private residence,
1:21:19
Speaker 3: they have to redact that out. If you know, if
1:21:22
Speaker 3: it flies over you know, certain areas, they have to
1:21:25
Speaker 3: REDI so they they have things they have to do
1:21:29
Speaker 3: and that takes time. So I'll give the city credit
1:21:31
Speaker 3: for that. You know they're not stalling it, it's just
1:21:35
Speaker 3: it takes time to do all those redactions that have
1:21:38
Speaker 3: a very large, large file.
1:21:40
Speaker 1: Well, given the what the police have alerted you to
1:21:43
Speaker 1: in terms of what's going to be revealed in that,
1:21:45
Speaker 1: I'm very anxious to see it myself and I'm willing
1:21:47
Speaker 1: to wait for it for them to do the needed
1:21:49
Speaker 1: job for redaction so we can get a clear picture
1:21:52
Speaker 1: of what actually happened. And thanks to you, we know
1:21:54
Speaker 1: it actually happened. Signal ninety nine. Don't go away, because
1:21:57
Speaker 1: this allows us to pivot over to how effective are
1:21:59
Speaker 1: the juvenile curfew centers, especially when you're dealing with a
1:22:03
Speaker 1: pack of juveniles. Deep talk station six fifty five care
1:22:07
Speaker 1: see the talk station by the Times was signal ninety
1:22:09
Speaker 1: nine on Facebook at Signal ninety nine, follower get the
1:22:12
Speaker 1: inside scoop early and it's always accurate. Sticking with the
1:22:17
Speaker 1: juveniles running them up this past Friday in Juneteenth, two
1:22:19
Speaker 1: hundred and three hundred of them, you pointed out how
1:22:21
Speaker 1: they would disperse, regroup, disperse, regroup. Drones were following around.
1:22:25
Speaker 1: About thirty police officers had to deal with this and
1:22:28
Speaker 1: no one was taken to a juvenile curfew center in
1:22:31
Speaker 1: spite of the fact that there were juveniles and this
1:22:32
Speaker 1: was outside of curfew, they were eligible to be picked up.
1:22:36
Speaker 1: But as we find out, Ken Kober was on the
1:22:37
Speaker 1: show yesterday saying, listen, we can't take him to the
1:22:40
Speaker 1: curfew centers because we cannot sacrifice the police officers. That's
1:22:44
Speaker 1: one less police officer on the scene when we are
1:22:46
Speaker 1: already wildly outnumbered by the juveniles we're trying to round up.
1:22:51
Speaker 1: So what's the point of the almost four hundred thousand
1:22:53
Speaker 1: dollars spent for curfew centers? But more fundamentally signal ninety
1:22:56
Speaker 1: nine and another thing he pointed out, we can't take him
1:22:59
Speaker 1: to the juvenile courts run by Kerrie Bloom five call. Correctly,
1:23:04
Speaker 1: they won't take them, even juveniles with outstanding warrants. What's
1:23:07
Speaker 1: the point of having a juvenile court system if the
1:23:10
Speaker 1: whole system isn't designed to actually deal with the problem
1:23:12
Speaker 1: that the police are facing.
1:23:15
Speaker 3: Well, let me just preface with this. Do you remember
1:23:20
Speaker 3: last year when the city said, oh, we're going to
1:23:23
Speaker 3: give over five million dollars to the public safety funds,
1:23:27
Speaker 3: So CPD can you know, get control of the city.
1:23:31
Speaker 3: Do you recall that. Yes, okay, So the first two
1:23:35
Speaker 3: weeks of January, what do you think the Vice Mayor
1:23:38
Speaker 3: did with a bunch of that money?
1:23:40
Speaker 1: Oh, I can only imagine that part of it went
1:23:43
Speaker 1: the Irish roll.
1:23:43
Speaker 3: It moved it. He immediately moved it into curfew centers. Immediately,
1:23:48
Speaker 3: hundreds of thousands of dollars he took out of that
1:23:50
Speaker 3: fund and moved it to the curfew centers, which were
1:23:55
Speaker 3: unused last year. I think two juveniles for curfew center
1:23:58
Speaker 3: last year.
1:23:59
Speaker 4: Four.
1:23:59
Speaker 1: I believe it was widely reported. Yeah, that's a huge difference.
1:24:05
Speaker 3: But but here's the point. If an officer has to
1:24:08
Speaker 3: take a juvenile to the to the curfew center, that
1:24:13
Speaker 3: takes them off of the beat. It takes them out
1:24:16
Speaker 3: of calls, it takes them off the street, if they're
1:24:19
Speaker 3: if they're battling mobs downtown and they're stuck there as
1:24:23
Speaker 3: a babysitter waiting, uh to see what's going to happen now.
1:24:28
Speaker 3: All last summer, Judge Terry Bloom of the Juvenile Court
1:24:34
Speaker 3: hot little classes all over libraries all over the city.
1:24:38
Speaker 3: If you're a juvenile or parents of a juvenile and
1:24:41
Speaker 3: you get taken to a curfew center. This is what
1:24:44
Speaker 3: you need to say, I'm not staying here, I don't
1:24:47
Speaker 3: want to stay here, and they can't make you, okay,
1:24:51
Speaker 3: Or you could simply say I'm exercising my first amendment right.
1:24:55
Speaker 3: The mayor put that little caveat in his uh curfew
1:24:59
Speaker 3: program line last year. So if you know, if they
1:25:02
Speaker 3: say they're exercising their first amendment right, or they get
1:25:06
Speaker 3: to the curfew center and they say, yeah, I'm not
1:25:09
Speaker 3: staying here, nobody can make them stay there. Right now,
1:25:14
Speaker 3: it's soil.
1:25:18
Speaker 1: Yeah, even in the absence of the logistical challenges like
1:25:21
Speaker 1: insufficient police officers on the scene of ongoing criminal activity
1:25:24
Speaker 1: or basically potentially criminal activity, there's no point knowing center
1:25:27
Speaker 1: for an officer to take them there. For the reason
1:25:29
Speaker 1: you just point it out. You take them there, they
1:25:30
Speaker 1: say I want to leave, and they get to leave.
1:25:32
Speaker 1: So pointless gesture to drive them over to a curfew center.
1:25:37
Speaker 3: So pointless gesture to spend one hundreds of thousands of
1:25:40
Speaker 3: dollars on curfew centers that you know for a fact
1:25:44
Speaker 3: that the department's not going to use. They can't they
1:25:50
Speaker 3: can't afford to be off the street, not answering calls
1:25:54
Speaker 3: tied up, which even those who aren't going to stay
1:25:56
Speaker 3: there anyway because they know they don't have to thanks.
1:25:59
Speaker 1: To Carry Bloom well, and thanks to Carry Bloom apparently
1:26:02
Speaker 1: taking them to the juvenile court system itself won't do
1:26:05
Speaker 1: anything either. Let's stop, We'll bring her back to talk
1:26:07
Speaker 1: more about the problems with the juvenile courts. And of
1:26:10
Speaker 1: course Carrie Bloom is up for real the talk station.
1:26:14
Speaker 1: It's seven fifty five KRCD talk station Brian Thomas with
1:26:17
Speaker 1: signal ninety nine, full hour talking about the issues going
1:26:20
Speaker 1: on keeping with the juvenile courts, and they judge Carrie Bloom,
1:26:23
Speaker 1: the administrative judge there. She is going to be up
1:26:26
Speaker 1: for reelection and fall, so we have an option to
1:26:30
Speaker 1: change the direction of the juvenile court system. And I
1:26:32
Speaker 1: just was thinking more and more about the I guess
1:26:35
Speaker 1: lectures or information how to work the curfew centers for
1:26:40
Speaker 1: juveniles that she was going around and explaining to you
1:26:44
Speaker 1: said parents as well as juveniles or anyone who was
1:26:47
Speaker 1: interested in information about this, but basically what you need
1:26:50
Speaker 1: to say to get out of the curfew center. Now
1:26:54
Speaker 1: she's speaking to parents during these meetings. I mean, I
1:26:58
Speaker 1: just I puzzle.
1:26:58
Speaker 3: Over that le absolutely. So, okay, so I have kind
1:27:04
Speaker 3: of a lot of information to download for you really quickly.
1:27:07
Speaker 3: So you know, the mayor put out his amended curfew
1:27:14
Speaker 3: rules last year and one of those was you couldn't
1:27:18
Speaker 3: CPD couldn't hassle um if they were exercising this ort amendment. Right,
1:27:22
Speaker 3: So Carrie Bloom spent last summer educating parents and juvenile
1:27:27
Speaker 3: that if they had contact with with the city or
1:27:31
Speaker 3: police officers within the county that had curfew, what to
1:27:34
Speaker 3: say to get to get out of a curfew violation.
1:27:39
Speaker 3: I just I want to say that. Okay. Just recently April,
1:27:46
Speaker 3: a young man was arrested, a juvenile for aggravated robbery.
1:27:51
Speaker 3: Now he had a handgun. I'm being told that the
1:27:58
Speaker 3: rule in Judge Bloom's core is if they didn't fire
1:28:01
Speaker 3: the handgun, they don't go to twenty twenty.
1:28:03
Speaker 6: What.
1:28:05
Speaker 3: Yes, so you could beat people with a handgun, okay,
1:28:09
Speaker 3: but if you but as long as you don't pull
1:28:11
Speaker 3: the trigger and fire it, you're not going to twenty twenty.
1:28:16
Speaker 3: So this this young man was placed on EMU. Within
1:28:20
Speaker 3: twenty four hours he cut it off. Okay.
1:28:24
Speaker 1: Electronic monitoring, okay, electronic monitoring I'm going to clarify that
1:28:27
Speaker 1: for myself and the listening audience here.
1:28:29
Speaker 3: He just recently murdered somebody. Oh, okay, this is what
1:28:33
Speaker 3: we're being told now. This is the rules of her court.
1:28:38
Speaker 3: She continually runs the court where we had a CPD officer.
1:28:44
Speaker 3: Just this year, say, I arrested a twelve year old
1:28:48
Speaker 3: for grand theft auto. He was out of twenty twenty
1:28:53
Speaker 3: before I even finished my paperwork. They just had his
1:28:56
Speaker 3: parents pick him up, and he said, I just rested him.
1:29:00
Speaker 3: Three days later, the same twelve year old stealing a
1:29:03
Speaker 3: car and he's already back out. He was there for
1:29:08
Speaker 3: less than an hour. So this is how she runs
1:29:11
Speaker 3: her court. Let's just let them all. You know, we
1:29:15
Speaker 3: can't give them records, we can't put them into the
1:29:18
Speaker 3: justice system. You know, it's got to be Kumbai, a peace,
1:29:22
Speaker 3: love and granola. We can pick it all with, you know,
1:29:25
Speaker 3: therapy and EMU and counseling and medication or whatever. It
1:29:29
Speaker 3: doesn't work. And she just found out herself this weekend
1:29:35
Speaker 3: that it doesn't work because her car was stolen. In
1:29:39
Speaker 3: her car were her debit and credit cards. Okay, they
1:29:43
Speaker 3: racked up a bunch of money. They stole her car.
1:29:47
Speaker 3: They took it to Dayton. And here's the funniest thing
1:29:50
Speaker 3: of all. EPD knew where it was, pinging right west
1:29:55
Speaker 3: of Dayton, and they did nothing initially, So uh it
1:30:03
Speaker 3: was it was tongue in cheat, a little bit of karma.
1:30:07
Speaker 3: You know, you keep letting all these kids out that
1:30:12
Speaker 3: keep stilling everybody else's cards. But when you get your
1:30:15
Speaker 3: car stool and you want it, you want your car
1:30:17
Speaker 3: recovered right now?
1:30:18
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe not.
1:30:18
Speaker 3: I don't think so.
1:30:19
Speaker 1: Prosecutorial discretion. It's like a cop to sidy, he's not
1:30:22
Speaker 1: going to give you a speeding ticket, going to give
1:30:24
Speaker 1: you a warning. Well, you know what, we don't have
1:30:26
Speaker 1: time to go up to date and to pick up
1:30:27
Speaker 1: Judge Bloom's car. We got too much going on here
1:30:29
Speaker 1: with a runaway juvenile violence in downtown, so sucks to
1:30:32
Speaker 1: be used.
1:30:33
Speaker 3: How about we're not even going to call Dayton? Okay,
1:30:36
Speaker 3: I mean this was the biggest morale boost for CPD
1:30:40
Speaker 3: I think in a long time. Was and you know,
1:30:43
Speaker 3: nobody celebrates people getting hurt or anything like that, but
1:30:46
Speaker 3: this is a property crime, and according to Carrie Bloom,
1:30:50
Speaker 3: it's just property. Get over it. So you know, right,
1:30:53
Speaker 3: back at you, Judge Bloom, and you guys can thank
1:30:57
Speaker 3: her in November by the for Susan Luken, who wants
1:31:02
Speaker 3: to restore law and order to the juvenile court system
1:31:06
Speaker 3: and wants to restore justice to the victims. So you know,
1:31:12
Speaker 3: it's just crazy. You can't even miss up. And I
1:31:15
Speaker 3: want to circle back to the whole everybody said I
1:31:19
Speaker 3: was lying things.
1:31:21
Speaker 1: Hold on one second, media, let you you can conclude
1:31:24
Speaker 1: with that, maybe another cup an issue or two. But
1:31:26
Speaker 1: we'll break right here because we're out of time in
1:31:28
Speaker 1: the segment. But we'll come back to the accusations of
1:31:31
Speaker 1: lying with signal ninety nine and seven to forty six
1:31:33
Speaker 1: right now fifty five KR Citty Talk Station. Well, I
1:31:34
Speaker 1: mentioned you had the talk station seven fifty to fifty
1:31:38
Speaker 1: five KR City Talk station. Happy Friday, Congressman Warren Davidson
1:31:42
Speaker 1: at the top of the ur News got quite a
1:31:43
Speaker 1: few things to go over with Congressman Davidson. Of course,
1:31:45
Speaker 1: I heart media aviation expert Jay Rattle of at eight thirty.
1:31:48
Speaker 1: I hope you can stick around for that, and I
1:31:50
Speaker 1: appreciate you sticking around for the last segment with signal
1:31:52
Speaker 1: ninety nine. The collective that is on Facebook signal ninety
1:31:55
Speaker 1: nine with the inside scoop and going back to defending
1:31:57
Speaker 1: your your reputation against accusations of lying, which clearly you
1:32:01
Speaker 1: did not. He had a common or two on that
1:32:03
Speaker 1: signal ninety nine.
1:32:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just want to say that somebody, somebody high
1:32:10
Speaker 3: up in the city made the decision to have the
1:32:15
Speaker 3: statement put out that it was the crowds listened to police,
1:32:21
Speaker 3: you know, they they listened to orders. It was it
1:32:25
Speaker 3: was not unruly. That statement was completely false. And I
1:32:30
Speaker 3: want to go on the record and say the captain
1:32:31
Speaker 3: that made that statement, I'm sure was ordered to make
1:32:35
Speaker 3: that statement. Okay, So I don't hold him to the
1:32:42
Speaker 3: fire for that, but I will say this, they can't
1:32:47
Speaker 3: have thought this was going to stay buried. There's no
1:32:49
Speaker 3: way that, you know, when the media went down there,
1:32:53
Speaker 3: of course the crowds had moved, so they didn't. They
1:32:58
Speaker 3: went down, they looked at one location where they had
1:33:00
Speaker 3: heard on the scanner they were the crowds were no
1:33:03
Speaker 3: longer there, So to them, it just didn't happen. So
1:33:07
Speaker 3: for the media to infer that we made it up,
1:33:12
Speaker 3: that that that was kind of that was kind of
1:33:16
Speaker 3: cringey because they know better, They know us better than that, right,
1:33:21
Speaker 3: So these other people that accused us of lying, I could.
1:33:27
Speaker 3: I don't live They don't live in my head. I
1:33:30
Speaker 3: live in their heads. So I don't care about that.
1:33:33
Speaker 3: But who made the decision to lie to the press,
1:33:40
Speaker 3: Who made the decision for the night sheef to say yeah, no,
1:33:43
Speaker 3: everything was fine, everything was orderly, blah blah blah blah blah.
1:33:47
Speaker 3: Who made that decision, Because that's not transparency, that's lying.
1:33:54
Speaker 3: They lied. I didn't lie, We didn't lie. They lied.
1:34:00
Speaker 3: So you know, I and I believe that they did
1:34:04
Speaker 3: that to try to discredit Signal ninety nine. They want
1:34:07
Speaker 3: to shut us down. We're a pain in their pineapple.
1:34:10
Speaker 3: So you know, if they could, if they could bag
1:34:14
Speaker 3: on us for that and get people to start questioning us,
1:34:18
Speaker 3: our ethics, our integrity, we're just making stuff up. It
1:34:22
Speaker 3: discredits the page. Maybe the page will go away. I'm
1:34:25
Speaker 3: here to tell you, Brian, we're not going anywhere. We're
1:34:30
Speaker 3: not going anywhere. So and the more they doubled down
1:34:34
Speaker 3: on this, the more we're going to make them look stupid.
1:34:37
Speaker 3: And that's what they look like right now. Because did
1:34:40
Speaker 3: ten Cobra lie? No, No, did the cat reports lie. No,
1:34:45
Speaker 3: did we lie?
1:34:46
Speaker 2: Know?
1:34:47
Speaker 3: So, you know, I think the city owes the citizens
1:34:52
Speaker 3: and apology. I think they should make another statement that says,
1:34:55
Speaker 3: you know, these things did happen, but it's you know,
1:35:01
Speaker 3: I mean, if I ran the city, that's what I
1:35:02
Speaker 3: would be doing. But you know, I'll hold my breath. Ale.
1:35:05
Speaker 2: Wait.
1:35:06
Speaker 3: So I just wanted to say that who was behind that,
1:35:10
Speaker 3: who's trying to discredit us? Who's you know, who's doing
1:35:15
Speaker 3: this because it's wrong and will make you look dumb
1:35:19
Speaker 3: every time.
1:35:20
Speaker 1: Well, I would argue they make themselves look dumb based
1:35:22
Speaker 1: upon this behavior. You're just merely pointing out what's going on,
1:35:26
Speaker 1: and people can draw their own conclusions. But there's something
1:35:31
Speaker 1: definitely nefarious going on, and you are the one that's
1:35:33
Speaker 1: bucking the messaging coming from city Hall, which is an
1:35:36
Speaker 1: inaccurate message regarding violence and crime in downtown Cincinnati, most
1:35:39
Speaker 1: notably among the juvenile members, the members of the juvenile community.
1:35:43
Speaker 1: And I personally thank you, and I'm sure my listening
1:35:45
Speaker 1: audience is truly appreciative of the work that you do
1:35:48
Speaker 1: in calling that the people for what's actually going on.
1:35:51
Speaker 1: Thank you. Signal ninety nine fro the bottom of my heart,
1:35:53
Speaker 1: and I look forward to having you back on and
1:35:54
Speaker 1: I will continue to follow you as I recommend to
1:35:56
Speaker 1: my listeners. Do Facebook's the place, signal ninety nine the page.
1:36:01
Speaker 1: You'll enjoy it, Brian.
1:36:02
Speaker 3: Yes, wait, I just wanted to tell you something. Thank
1:36:07
Speaker 3: you for defending me all week. Oh thank you. I
1:36:11
Speaker 3: appreciate it. I know we've been friends for a very
1:36:14
Speaker 3: long time, but if I wanted to tell.
1:36:16
Speaker 1: You that, listen, if you lied, I'd call you out
1:36:19
Speaker 1: on it, and I would give you an opportunity to
1:36:20
Speaker 1: defend yourself. But look there the cats screen. The screens
1:36:24
Speaker 1: are right there. The swat team was called in. Ken
1:36:26
Speaker 1: Cober pointed out thirty officers had to be on the scene.
1:36:28
Speaker 1: They brought out two drune patrols. Clearly, there's a lot
1:36:32
Speaker 1: going on and the city is denying it and telling
1:36:34
Speaker 1: captains to go out and tell you there's nothing to
1:36:36
Speaker 1: see here. Then well you've shown them for the uh, well,
1:36:39
Speaker 1: the liars that they may possibly be. We'll wait for
1:36:42
Speaker 1: the verdict on who issued the order signal ninety nine,
1:36:44
Speaker 1: and something tells me you'll probably have that information before
1:36:47
Speaker 1: any of the local news outlets. God bless you keep
1:36:50
Speaker 1: up the great work. We'll talk again real soon. Have
1:36:52
Speaker 1: a great weekend you too, seven fifty six Congressman Warren
1:36:58
Speaker 1: Davidson after the top of the hour, News is the War?
1:37:00
Speaker 1: Why did Donald Trump walk away from the TORNT Radio
1:37:03
Speaker 1: powered by fifty five KRC dot Com eight oh five
1:37:09
Speaker 1: at fifty five kr CD talk station Friday, Even a
1:37:12
Speaker 1: happy one to you and always extra special day when
1:37:15
Speaker 1: Congressman Warren Davidson joins a fifty five kr SEE morning show,
1:37:17
Speaker 1: and a great day to do it, considering the well,
1:37:20
Speaker 1: a little bit of I I'm going to call it a
1:37:21
Speaker 1: hissy fit. Donald Trump's going to be a bit angry
1:37:23
Speaker 1: yesterday for a variety of reasons. Welcome back to the program,
1:37:25
Speaker 1: Congressman Davidson. It's a distinct pleasure to have you on
1:37:27
Speaker 1: the show.
1:37:29
Speaker 7: Always an honor to join you. Thanks Brian.
1:37:31
Speaker 1: Well, let us start, if you don't mind the Donald
1:37:34
Speaker 1: Trump's refusal to sign this twenty first century Road to
1:37:38
Speaker 1: Housing Act, which overwhelmingly passed thirty three hundred and fifty
1:37:41
Speaker 1: eight to thirty two. He was supposed to have a
1:37:43
Speaker 1: signing ceremony and he canceled it sort of at the
1:37:46
Speaker 1: last minute and said this is canceled until such time
1:37:49
Speaker 1: as In other words, I'm not going to sign this
1:37:51
Speaker 1: until such time as we pass the desperately needed Save
1:37:54
Speaker 1: America Act, which is the It includes the provision for
1:37:57
Speaker 1: voter ID and citizenship verification. We all know about the same,
1:38:00
Speaker 1: at least my listening audience does. I think most of
1:38:02
Speaker 1: my listening audience thinks it's probably a good idea, but
1:38:04
Speaker 1: a bit of a hurdle here to overcome. They don't
1:38:06
Speaker 1: have enough votes in the Senate to pass it. So
1:38:09
Speaker 1: I does Donald Trump think it's important to advance this
1:38:13
Speaker 1: just for a symbolic vote that's going to fail, as
1:38:15
Speaker 1: he expecting the Senate to get rid of the filibuster.
1:38:18
Speaker 1: I guess I'm kind of wondering what your perception is
1:38:21
Speaker 1: and whether or not this is a good idea, because
1:38:23
Speaker 1: some Republicans are a little upset with him saying that
1:38:25
Speaker 1: he handed the Democrats a win by not just going
1:38:29
Speaker 1: ahead and signing this bipartisan piece of legislation. Your reaction, Congressman.
1:38:32
Speaker 7: Davidson, Well, I'd like to think that the reasoning was
1:38:36
Speaker 7: he read my op ed explaining why even though I'm
1:38:38
Speaker 7: a former chairman of Housing and Insurance and there are
1:38:41
Speaker 7: some good wins in it, and it's timely to talk
1:38:43
Speaker 7: about housing affordability. This was a bad bill and I
1:38:46
Speaker 7: couldn't vote for it. I voted no as one of
1:38:48
Speaker 7: the thirty two people that voted no, and that was disappointing.
1:38:52
Speaker 7: But I don't think it's because he read my op ed.
1:38:54
Speaker 7: But he did rightly call it out.
1:38:55
Speaker 2: You know, the.
1:38:56
Speaker 7: Pocahontas Housing Act, and it has been Elizabeth Warren's top priority,
1:39:00
Speaker 7: or at least some of the provisions in it. Now
1:39:03
Speaker 7: we get some really important lens to me, it came
1:39:05
Speaker 7: at a great cost. And he's like, look, that's not
1:39:08
Speaker 7: what people are talking about. You guys are over here
1:39:10
Speaker 7: pushing Elizabeth Warren's priorities. Where are you going to push
1:39:13
Speaker 7: my priorities and the priorities of the country, which is
1:39:16
Speaker 7: protecting election integrity. The Same America Act is overwhelmingly popular.
1:39:21
Speaker 7: I mean, people in Ohio across the political spectrum have
1:39:24
Speaker 7: found a way to get id and registered to vote.
1:39:27
Speaker 7: Not a big issue in our state. There are fourteen
1:39:29
Speaker 7: states that don't have it, and I think the other
1:39:32
Speaker 7: one that's a big deal. And we've had a federal
1:39:34
Speaker 7: judge basically say you can't check a federal database to
1:39:38
Speaker 7: determine whether someone's a citizen or not. Like they're basically like, oh,
1:39:41
Speaker 7: you've got to have a trial to determine whether somebody's
1:39:43
Speaker 7: a citizen or not. First you have to have a
1:39:45
Speaker 7: trial to remove them. Now to even know whether they're
1:39:48
Speaker 7: a citizen or not, apparently you have to have a
1:39:50
Speaker 7: separate trial. I don't know how you suminum or whatever,
1:39:52
Speaker 7: but these judges are insane and so but this is
1:39:57
Speaker 7: what it does. It compares in a federal database to
1:39:59
Speaker 7: people that registered to vote to the people that are
1:40:02
Speaker 7: citizens of the country. And the reason that's important is, Look,
1:40:05
Speaker 7: do you have motor voter laws all over the country
1:40:08
Speaker 7: and you're not supposed to register to vote if you're
1:40:11
Speaker 7: not a citizen. But there's no real check for it.
1:40:14
Speaker 7: In Ohio. Our Secretary of State's office does it. And
1:40:18
Speaker 7: what they're trying to do is podify those things into
1:40:20
Speaker 7: our constitution. So it's not just a practice because we
1:40:22
Speaker 7: have a good secretary of State, but it is the
1:40:25
Speaker 7: constitution in Ohio, and I think that's a rational thing
1:40:28
Speaker 7: to do for the state of Ohio. We're not even
1:40:30
Speaker 7: trying to amend the constitution. We are at least trying
1:40:32
Speaker 7: to get it a law so that states like California
1:40:35
Speaker 7: and Illinois, New York, New Jersey, et cetera are doing
1:40:39
Speaker 7: these honest election practices and we can't even get a vote.
1:40:43
Speaker 7: And that's that's the president's frustration, I think is we've
1:40:47
Speaker 7: got a fifty three seat, a fifty three to forty
1:40:50
Speaker 7: seven majority in the Senate, and yeah, you've got rules,
1:40:54
Speaker 7: but at some point the leader of the Senate's job
1:40:57
Speaker 7: is to lead find a way to get me a vote.
1:41:00
Speaker 7: He wants to guarantee it passes. I'm just at a
1:41:02
Speaker 7: point where I just want to know everybody is put
1:41:04
Speaker 7: it on the floor and vote.
1:41:05
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's important. You know, it's always crazy when
1:41:09
Speaker 1: you got the Mitch McConnell's of the world coming out
1:41:11
Speaker 1: against something like this for reasons completely unknown, but at
1:41:14
Speaker 1: least the Democratic opposition makes no sense whatsoever. They're arguing
1:41:19
Speaker 1: that this is somehow going to disenfranchise American citizens from voting.
1:41:23
Speaker 1: This is the whole Jim Crow two kind of argument
1:41:26
Speaker 1: they're making Congress when David's in opposition to something that
1:41:28
Speaker 1: the American people want.
1:41:30
Speaker 7: Chuck Schumer says that it'll cause twenty five million people
1:41:34
Speaker 7: to be unable to vote. I go, well, that's exactly
1:41:38
Speaker 7: what we're going after. But I thought twenty five millions
1:41:40
Speaker 7: a little high. I didn't think that many non citizens
1:41:43
Speaker 7: were registered to vote, right, we figured some twenty five million.
1:41:46
Speaker 7: I mean, everybody else is going to be able to
1:41:48
Speaker 7: find a way to get your register. And the other
1:41:50
Speaker 7: thing is, no one is going to be unregistered to
1:41:53
Speaker 7: vote unless you're not a citizen. So oh well, but
1:41:56
Speaker 7: you're you know, you got married. Well, if you're registered
1:41:59
Speaker 7: to today, you're not going to be unregistered because the
1:42:03
Speaker 7: Stay of America Act pass. But when you do go
1:42:07
Speaker 7: to register, just like it's always been in Ohio, you
1:42:11
Speaker 7: show ID, and you know, if you've changed your name
1:42:15
Speaker 7: or something like that, the idea you hand over has
1:42:18
Speaker 7: got to match the name you go by. It's in law.
1:42:22
Speaker 7: Like you know, people can call you know Bud or
1:42:25
Speaker 7: Gus or you know, Jim, Bob or whatever. But if
1:42:28
Speaker 7: your real name is William, then then you can't. You know,
1:42:32
Speaker 7: You've got to have an idea, that idea that matches it.
1:42:34
Speaker 7: In the same for maiden name versus married names, some
1:42:37
Speaker 7: people change it, some people hyphenate it, whatever, but like
1:42:41
Speaker 7: show who you are, and that's the way it is
1:42:43
Speaker 7: for everything else it is. So this is this is
1:42:46
Speaker 7: not an insane burden to be able to do. It
1:42:50
Speaker 7: is already the practice in Ohio and nearly.
1:42:53
Speaker 1: Every other state well, and it's also consistent with enforcing
1:42:56
Speaker 1: federal law. Now, there are local jurisdictions, as I understand it,
1:42:59
Speaker 1: that allow non citizens to vote in local matters, and
1:43:02
Speaker 1: they do that. Fine. I suppose this doesn't interfere with that.
1:43:05
Speaker 1: This would only preclude those individuals who aren't US citizens
1:43:08
Speaker 1: from voting on federal elections, so that doesn't change the
1:43:12
Speaker 1: dynamic there either. So, and I know Mitch McConnell's one
1:43:14
Speaker 1: of his arguments is, well, states are responsible for the elections,
1:43:17
Speaker 1: and that may be true, but the federal law, the
1:43:20
Speaker 1: Constitution says that citizens vote in federal elections. So this
1:43:24
Speaker 1: is a mechanism to enforce the federal component of the law.
1:43:28
Speaker 7: Right, And look, that is already the law. But part
1:43:30
Speaker 7: of the problem is there's not really a detection exactly right,
1:43:34
Speaker 7: there's no real way to check it. And that's what
1:43:37
Speaker 7: this bill is about. And look, we're not really believing
1:43:41
Speaker 7: that overall in the state of California, for example, that
1:43:45
Speaker 7: somehow in a presidential election soon anyway, it's going to
1:43:50
Speaker 7: become a republican state. You know, back when Reagan was
1:43:52
Speaker 7: president it was a republican state. Right, So over time,
1:43:55
Speaker 7: who knows where things go in any given state, But
1:43:58
Speaker 7: in congressional districts California, they've got like a two or
1:44:01
Speaker 7: three week period where they're counting elections. Everyone rational says something,
1:44:07
Speaker 7: there's some shenanigans going on when you see this kind
1:44:09
Speaker 7: of thing, and you see the Republican up by four
1:44:13
Speaker 7: thousand votes, and what do you know, three weeks later,
1:44:16
Speaker 7: the Democrat has found four thousand, two hundred votes. Democrat
1:44:21
Speaker 7: wins by two hundred votes. I mean, this kind of
1:44:22
Speaker 7: stuff happens over and over again in California and in
1:44:26
Speaker 7: other states, and we need to have honest elections. And
1:44:31
Speaker 7: the irony is Democrats are always the ones that run
1:44:33
Speaker 7: around say, you know, it's to save our democracy, our democracy. Well,
1:44:36
Speaker 7: it's a republic if you can keep it, but yes,
1:44:39
Speaker 7: we do vote. And it seems like if you're truly
1:44:42
Speaker 7: a Democrat in your party name, you would want an
1:44:45
Speaker 7: honest election. How this breaks on party lines, I don't know,
1:44:49
Speaker 7: but it clearly indicates maybe you have other motives.
1:44:53
Speaker 1: Maybe well, and there have been for all the people
1:44:55
Speaker 1: who say, well, all this doesn't happen, or in the
1:44:57
Speaker 1: case of even some judges, we had a judge Denise
1:44:59
Speaker 1: cast for just basically predicate her her the the the
1:45:04
Speaker 1: eradication of the Executi Order which required proof of citizenship
1:45:07
Speaker 1: to vote in the elections. She goes, well, it doesn't
1:45:09
Speaker 1: happen very often, or there's no documented proof of widespread
1:45:12
Speaker 1: voter fraud. But there have been document a case of
1:45:14
Speaker 1: voter fraud and illegal illegal uh non citizens voting in
1:45:18
Speaker 1: federal elections. That in and of itself, given the the
1:45:21
Speaker 1: the cloak of darkness that all these elections seem to
1:45:24
Speaker 1: be shrouded under, like in California, if it can happen,
1:45:29
Speaker 1: and it has happened, then it may very well be
1:45:31
Speaker 1: happening right now in larger numbers. But you got to
1:45:33
Speaker 1: investigate it to find it out. They don't even want
1:45:35
Speaker 1: to look into it.
1:45:36
Speaker 8: Congressman Davidson, No, that's right, and that they don't want
1:45:40
Speaker 8: the detection method because you know, for the obvious reasons,
1:45:44
Speaker 8: they want to keep saying, well, it just doesn't happen.
1:45:46
Speaker 7: Well, you don't have a way to detect it. It's
1:45:48
Speaker 7: like you know, putting a putting a cop out there
1:45:51
Speaker 7: to check people for speeding, and they don't have radar
1:45:53
Speaker 7: or anything else to check it. As like, I don't know,
1:45:56
Speaker 7: the car looked like it was going fast. Well can
1:45:58
Speaker 7: you substantiate that? Well not really. It looks kind of
1:46:03
Speaker 7: like maybe they were going faster than the other cars.
1:46:05
Speaker 7: Well how much faster? It seemed a lot faster. You
1:46:08
Speaker 7: know that you haven't built the detection system I and
1:46:11
Speaker 7: that's what we're trying to do. I mean, they didn't
1:46:13
Speaker 7: accidentally undo this in a lot of states, and they
1:46:16
Speaker 7: didn't accidentally avoid doing And then that's my concern. Even
1:46:19
Speaker 7: after you've passed something like voter ID in California, you
1:46:22
Speaker 7: could hold up a Kleenex and they'd probably just wave
1:46:25
Speaker 7: your height on in. But the federal review of the
1:46:29
Speaker 7: voter registration files to say they've got honest at least registrations, Yeah,
1:46:35
Speaker 7: that would be a start. And you know, the president's
1:46:38
Speaker 7: trying to use the postal service to rein in some
1:46:41
Speaker 7: level of accountability on mail end ballots as well, And
1:46:43
Speaker 7: I mean that's a rational thing to do.
1:46:46
Speaker 1: We'll bring Congressman David's back more issues to talk about
1:46:48
Speaker 1: clearly with Congressman Warren Davidson. Don't away be right back
1:46:52
Speaker 1: fifty five KARC dot com our iHeartRadio music side the
1:46:56
Speaker 1: talk station eight eighteen If any have krcit talks right
1:47:00
Speaker 1: homes with Congressman Warren Davidson. Pivoting away from Trump's demand
1:47:05
Speaker 1: to get the Save Act pass and certainly understand the
1:47:07
Speaker 1: reasons behind wanting to get it passed. Question remains whether
1:47:10
Speaker 1: they can get through the Senate, but pivoting over to
1:47:12
Speaker 1: the situation between the Iran and the United States. We
1:47:15
Speaker 1: have this memorandum of understanding, Congressman Davidson, is the way
1:47:17
Speaker 1: things are shaking out. It doesn't seem to me that
1:47:21
Speaker 1: the real issues are being addressed on and off on again.
1:47:25
Speaker 1: Sort of closure of the strait of horror moves though,
1:47:27
Speaker 1: But the dealing with the nuclear materials that Iran still has.
1:47:31
Speaker 1: No one's denying that's still there. How we acts as it,
1:47:34
Speaker 1: who gets access to it. There was discussions about allowing
1:47:37
Speaker 1: inspectors to come in, followed by the Iranian saying no, no,
1:47:40
Speaker 1: we never agreed to that. But it's looking more and
1:47:43
Speaker 1: more like Iran has kind of the upper hand in
1:47:45
Speaker 1: all this, given that they have been able to shut
1:47:48
Speaker 1: down and open up on a whim the Strait of
1:47:51
Speaker 1: Horror Moves, considering their sizeable battery of drones and small
1:47:55
Speaker 1: little mosquito boats and mine. So in spite of the
1:47:58
Speaker 1: having the biggest military and the entire planet trying to
1:48:01
Speaker 1: keep the place open, we were unable to open it up.
1:48:04
Speaker 1: So where are we with these negotiations from your perspective,
1:48:07
Speaker 1: Congressman Davidson.
1:48:09
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, I think you know how open is
1:48:11
Speaker 7: the Straight of Horror Moves. I don't think the Navy's
1:48:14
Speaker 7: worried about going through there. They've escorted, you know, millions
1:48:17
Speaker 7: of barrels of oil through the Straight of Horn Moves
1:48:19
Speaker 7: and tons of ships. What happens is the media will say, oh, well,
1:48:25
Speaker 7: you know this, this speedboat with a gun on it
1:48:27
Speaker 7: represents ran still has a navy. Well, okay, if you
1:48:31
Speaker 7: want to call that a navy. But nevertheless, for a
1:48:35
Speaker 7: commercial ship, well that still poses a threat. And the
1:48:39
Speaker 7: insurers are saying, hey, you know, we don't really want
1:48:42
Speaker 7: the risks. So a lot of people aren't taking the
1:48:45
Speaker 7: risk until there's certainty that there will be no problem
1:48:49
Speaker 7: going through there. It's unfortunately kind of like going through
1:48:53
Speaker 7: some parts of big cities.
1:48:54
Speaker 3: At times.
1:48:55
Speaker 2: You might say it's.
1:48:56
Speaker 7: Safe, but a lot of people are like, well, I
1:48:58
Speaker 7: don't know if I need to go there, you know, right,
1:49:01
Speaker 7: and you know, maybe maybe a little more dangerous than
1:49:04
Speaker 7: that in some parts of the Strait, But we're trying
1:49:08
Speaker 7: to get you know, all the details worked out. I
1:49:11
Speaker 7: think our vice president has been exceptional here from the
1:49:14
Speaker 7: get go. Frankly, I mean, sounding a word of caution
1:49:18
Speaker 7: in advance of the war, but supporting the president. He's
1:49:21
Speaker 7: the vice president, so of course you can do that.
1:49:23
Speaker 7: But I think he's been effective in saying, hey, I'm
1:49:26
Speaker 7: going to go on behalf of the president and the
1:49:28
Speaker 7: people of the United States and say we want to
1:49:30
Speaker 7: find a peaceful way to resolve it. And no, we
1:49:32
Speaker 7: don't trust Iran, but we are going to measure the results.
1:49:36
Speaker 7: And the results are you know, troubling. It's not like
1:49:39
Speaker 7: something and this is a thing. This wasn't a treaty
1:49:42
Speaker 7: that was announced. This was an MoU so that you
1:49:44
Speaker 7: could work out, you know, a more enduring language. But
1:49:48
Speaker 7: it's at least to say, hey, over these next sixty days,
1:49:51
Speaker 7: let's be more intentional about meeting. Let's stop doing certain things,
1:49:55
Speaker 7: and that hasn't consistently stopped. I think one of the
1:49:58
Speaker 7: big flaws is, you know, Israel and Hesbelah aren't truly
1:50:04
Speaker 7: parties to the agreement and framework, and you know, to
1:50:08
Speaker 7: some extent Hesbela is somewhat independent of Iran. They're totally
1:50:15
Speaker 7: dependent upon Iran for funding. Their ideology and religion are
1:50:18
Speaker 7: the same, but you know they have different people. Even
1:50:21
Speaker 7: within the toppled regime in Iran, there are hardliners that
1:50:26
Speaker 7: have control of military units, that have launch buttons and
1:50:30
Speaker 7: they're sending missiles and things like that. So to say
1:50:33
Speaker 7: that Iran has complete control of even their own military
1:50:36
Speaker 7: right now isn't certain. And it's clear that the United
1:50:40
Speaker 7: States doesn't control Israel. We have a lot of influence
1:50:43
Speaker 7: with Israel, but you know, you can tell President Trump
1:50:47
Speaker 7: is a bit frustrated with Benjamin Natanya, who in particular.
1:50:51
Speaker 1: No question about that. And to me, that was the
1:50:53
Speaker 1: biggest red flag in the whole memory of understanding is
1:50:55
Speaker 1: that they included issues involving Lebanon. And my immediate reaction
1:50:59
Speaker 1: to that when I read the first time was, well,
1:51:00
Speaker 1: wait a second, Lebanon is not a signatory to this,
1:51:02
Speaker 1: and neither is Israel. So how in the hell are
1:51:04
Speaker 1: they going to be even drug into this, And how
1:51:06
Speaker 1: are issues involving Lebanon relative to what we are doing
1:51:08
Speaker 1: with Visa VI the Iranians and trying to get the
1:51:11
Speaker 1: straight open up. I mean that to me was a
1:51:12
Speaker 1: recipe for disaster from the from the outset.
1:51:16
Speaker 2: Yeah.
1:51:17
Speaker 7: I mean, look, you know, even pre Islam, I mean,
1:51:19
Speaker 7: the recorded history of the Middle East broadly has been war.
1:51:24
Speaker 7: I mean there have been periods of quote peace, but
1:51:27
Speaker 7: it's only because one empire or another conquered everyone and
1:51:31
Speaker 7: imposed their will on it, whether it was you know,
1:51:33
Speaker 7: the Roman Empire or the Ottoman Empire, or Muhammad and
1:51:37
Speaker 7: his day or you know.
1:51:38
Speaker 2: Zer Sees back in Yea.
1:51:40
Speaker 7: You know, all through history, you look at all these
1:51:42
Speaker 7: kinds of things through the region, it's a history of war.
1:51:46
Speaker 7: So you know, the odds are not in favor of peace.
1:51:49
Speaker 7: But I think it's something I think the world wants,
1:51:52
Speaker 7: and I think what we are seeing is is that
1:51:55
Speaker 7: people in the you know, the population of Iran is
1:51:58
Speaker 7: much younger than a lot of other kinds. They're being
1:52:01
Speaker 7: fruitful and multiplying, unlike a lot of other Western countries,
1:52:05
Speaker 7: and so you have a large young generation in all
1:52:08
Speaker 7: that country is known as poverty because they're not engaged
1:52:10
Speaker 7: with the rest of the world. And so that's part
1:52:14
Speaker 7: of why the domestic unrest was there. That's why they
1:52:16
Speaker 7: were uprisings before February twenty eighth when the US did
1:52:21
Speaker 7: decapitation strike there that led to the regime killing thirty
1:52:26
Speaker 7: to forty thousand of their own citizens. They were rising
1:52:30
Speaker 7: up in part because their economies and shambles. There's no opportunity,
1:52:34
Speaker 7: and that's why President Trump is out there offering if
1:52:37
Speaker 7: you want to engage with the rest of the world,
1:52:38
Speaker 7: do you want a different future than your more recent past,
1:52:43
Speaker 7: then show us that you're going to change your behavior,
1:52:45
Speaker 7: and we're willing to embrace you and welcome you into
1:52:49
Speaker 7: this part of the world.
1:52:51
Speaker 1: Maybe this is our fundamental fair to understand the Iranian
1:52:54
Speaker 1: fundamentalists who run the country, they don't want to engage
1:52:56
Speaker 1: with the rest of the world. I think they view
1:52:58
Speaker 1: the rest of the world, Western civilization and generally speaking,
1:53:01
Speaker 1: as a threat to their fundamentalist ideology. It's like Sodom
1:53:05
Speaker 1: and Gomora out here in the rest of the world.
1:53:06
Speaker 1: Why would I want to become a part of that
1:53:08
Speaker 1: that culture that undermines religion. Generally speaking, ask Christians in
1:53:12
Speaker 1: America how they feel about Hollywood and social media and
1:53:15
Speaker 1: everybody else criticizing Christianity. I can see the Imam saying,
1:53:19
Speaker 1: no way, screw the rest of the world. We don't
1:53:21
Speaker 1: want to target right.
1:53:21
Speaker 7: And that's the divide within within Iran. And you know,
1:53:26
Speaker 7: the hardline fundamentalists versus a lot of the rest of
1:53:29
Speaker 7: the population. And you know, the fundamentalists are the guys
1:53:32
Speaker 7: with the guns right now, and they're willing to use
1:53:35
Speaker 7: them on their own population. It's not like they're going
1:53:38
Speaker 7: to go to the polls. They're not going to protest
1:53:40
Speaker 7: too aggressively and stay alive over there. Nevertheless, many of
1:53:44
Speaker 7: them have been protesting, so they really want a different
1:53:48
Speaker 7: future in a lot of ways. But yeah, no matter
1:53:50
Speaker 7: how much suffering you impose on the hardliners that have
1:53:54
Speaker 7: stayed in control of the country so far, to them,
1:53:57
Speaker 7: it's just a fulfillment of prophecy and they're awaiting the
1:54:00
Speaker 7: twelfth Am.
1:54:00
Speaker 1: Mom.
1:54:01
Speaker 7: The more you attack them, the more it validates their
1:54:04
Speaker 7: theory that they're going to be attacked. And it's almost
1:54:08
Speaker 7: like they have to do things to agitate others to
1:54:10
Speaker 7: fulfill this prophecy that they've got, and they're waiting, waiting
1:54:14
Speaker 7: for the twelfth a mom and in some ways this
1:54:16
Speaker 7: coincides with, you know, the next building of the Temple
1:54:20
Speaker 7: and the Antichrist and Israel views the Messiah because they
1:54:26
Speaker 7: don't recognize Jesus as the Messiah. So they're all come together,
1:54:29
Speaker 7: and they've got prophetic futures where there's this big final
1:54:34
Speaker 7: battle and they come together. So all this kind of
1:54:37
Speaker 7: fuels let's just keep killing each other mindset for some
1:54:40
Speaker 7: of the radicals, And I think a lot of people
1:54:43
Speaker 7: are wise to say, you know, maybe we should just
1:54:46
Speaker 7: get out of the way and let them do it.
1:54:48
Speaker 7: We don't have to get in all the wars we're
1:54:50
Speaker 7: invited to. We certainly don't need to seek out extra ones.
1:54:54
Speaker 7: And you know, nevertheless, look when Israel's attacked, I mean
1:54:57
Speaker 7: America feels a deep sympathy to Israel. Of our heritage
1:55:00
Speaker 7: is you know, any Christian is going to feel some
1:55:04
Speaker 7: connectedness to the Holy Land.
1:55:07
Speaker 1: Well you might own to remind that to the leftist
1:55:09
Speaker 1: in New York whore most recently elected because they ran
1:55:11
Speaker 1: on a full anti Israel platform Congressman Davidson. Wonderful conversation
1:55:17
Speaker 1: with you, as always. I appreciate your willingness to come

1:55:34
Speaker 1: iHeartMedia aviation expert Jay Ratliffe joining the show. Always a

1:56:01
Speaker 1: prayers for good weather for my daughter's wedding on Saturday.
1:56:05
Speaker 1: I've given up, But Jay, our weather forecasts occasionally wrong.
1:56:10
Speaker 2: You know.
1:56:10
Speaker 9: I well, no, obviously not Brian, because we're told with
1:56:14
Speaker 9: absolute certainty, in twenty three years we're going to be,
1:56:17
Speaker 9: you know, without a planet.
1:56:19
Speaker 1: So that's right.
1:56:20
Speaker 9: If they can get that right, certainly they can get
1:56:23
Speaker 9: this weekend.
1:56:23
Speaker 1: No question about it. Prayers keep coming in. I'll take
1:56:26
Speaker 1: them if you want to offer them anyway, absolutely pivoting
1:56:28
Speaker 1: over to the subject matter, This was great, Jay. When
1:56:32
Speaker 1: I saw this, of course, I immediately thought of you.
1:56:34
Speaker 1: The Southwest Airline captain that is obviously forced into retirement
1:56:37
Speaker 1: because they must retire at age sixty five for reasons unknown.
1:56:40
Speaker 1: We'll get to that in a moment. But he had
1:56:42
Speaker 1: a really extra special day on his last flight.
1:56:45
Speaker 9: Yeah, they brought us his daughter on board, and the
1:56:48
Speaker 9: daughter addresses the passenger saying, hey, it's my dad's last flight,
1:56:52
Speaker 9: and she went on to talk about their space for relationship,
1:56:55
Speaker 9: how her dad taught him to or taught her how
1:56:59
Speaker 9: to ride a bike, a walk, yes, how to fly
1:57:01
Speaker 9: a plane, and then she went on to announce she
1:57:04
Speaker 9: was going to be the first officer on that flight
1:57:06
Speaker 9: because she also works for Southwest Airlines, and they arranged
1:57:09
Speaker 9: it so that dad and daughter could fly together on
1:57:12
Speaker 9: his last segment. And I tell it's an incredibly emotional
1:57:15
Speaker 9: time because you will have air traffic controllers who are
1:57:18
Speaker 9: aware of it pass along their best wishes to the
1:57:22
Speaker 9: pilot that's retiring. Many times the fire crews will come
1:57:25
Speaker 9: out with two trucks and they'll do the water cannon
1:57:28
Speaker 9: to loot as they leave, both on departure and arrival.
1:57:32
Speaker 9: But to have your daughter next next to you on
1:57:34
Speaker 9: that flights as part of the crew, you know, I've
1:57:37
Speaker 9: seen it where it's you know, it's a mom and daughter,
1:57:40
Speaker 9: mom and son in the cockpit, or maybe the dad's
1:57:44
Speaker 9: flying and the one of the flight attendance is one
1:57:46
Speaker 9: of the children. But I mean to have them both
1:57:48
Speaker 9: up front like that. You know, that's one If you
1:57:51
Speaker 9: encounter a little bit of a weather.
1:57:52
Speaker 1: Delay, you don't care, you don't care.
1:57:55
Speaker 9: Milk it for just a few more minutes, because yeah,
1:57:59
Speaker 9: it's special, and it's gone viral for all the great reasons.
1:58:03
Speaker 1: Right, it was a great put a smell on your
1:58:06
Speaker 1: face story. And that lets us pivot over to the
1:58:08
Speaker 1: other topic we have on your list, you're among others.
1:58:10
Speaker 1: Why the hell does a guy got to retire at
1:58:11
Speaker 1: sixty five? I mean absence some cognitive decline of the
1:58:14
Speaker 1: guy's Obviously he has like what six thousand hours behind
1:58:18
Speaker 1: the stick?
1:58:19
Speaker 4: Well, I think it's.
1:58:19
Speaker 9: Eighteen thousand when you put everything in as far as
1:58:22
Speaker 9: all this flying time. This guy flew for the military
1:58:25
Speaker 9: twenty years, that's right. The Southwest flew for another twenty years,
1:58:28
Speaker 9: so I mean, yeah, he was doing it right. But
1:58:31
Speaker 9: sixty five is the age that was determined. I think
1:58:34
Speaker 9: it's back in two thousand and eight or nine, we
1:58:37
Speaker 9: solved an increase in the manuatory retirement age from sixty
1:58:42
Speaker 9: to sixty five, and right now sixty five is considered
1:58:46
Speaker 9: the time when it's time forced to put the pilots out.
1:58:49
Speaker 9: The past year now, a lot of these sixty five
1:58:51
Speaker 9: year olds are very very sharp men and women. Believe me,
1:58:54
Speaker 9: I'd love to keep him in the cockpit for another
1:58:56
Speaker 9: year or two. But for some inexplicable reason, there's been
1:58:59
Speaker 9: a I don't know if it's the airlines don't want
1:59:01
Speaker 9: to pay these individuals more money for two years. They
1:59:04
Speaker 9: want to bring in cheaper talent, whatever it might happen
1:59:07
Speaker 9: to be.
1:59:07
Speaker 4: But even the union.
1:59:10
Speaker 9: That represents the Airline Pilot Association is against the increase,
1:59:14
Speaker 9: and I've never gotten that, and I've had some people say, well, Jay,
1:59:18
Speaker 9: you need to understand that other countries at sixty five.
1:59:22
Speaker 9: So if we did increase it to sixty seven, then
1:59:24
Speaker 9: our international flights could be at risk if we had
1:59:27
Speaker 9: a sixty six year old captain going into a country.
1:59:32
Speaker 9: But the problem is the rest of the world tends
1:59:34
Speaker 9: to follow our lead. So if we raised it to
1:59:37
Speaker 9: sixty seven, there's a pretty good chance around the world
1:59:40
Speaker 9: that we would see the same sort of situation. So yeah,
1:59:44
Speaker 9: I will certainly accept the fact that there could be
1:59:48
Speaker 9: some scheduling complications in that. But look, a lot of
1:59:51
Speaker 9: these men and women have taken pay cuts over the
1:59:53
Speaker 9: years the decades, and it would be nice for them
1:59:57
Speaker 9: to have an extra year or two to try to
1:59:58
Speaker 9: regain some of the if they lost. Plus, I like
2:00:02
Speaker 9: it during a time when we are saying that we
2:00:04
Speaker 9: are short on pilots, here's an instant fix that will
2:00:08
Speaker 9: allow us to keep a quality number of pilots for
2:00:10
Speaker 9: an additional year or two. Let's do it. But again,
2:00:16
Speaker 9: I mean, Senator Lindsey Graham has been working on this
2:00:18
Speaker 9: for three or four years. You go back to coming
2:00:20
Speaker 9: out of COVID, you and I were talking about raising
2:00:22
Speaker 9: the retirement age of pilots from sixty five to a
2:00:26
Speaker 9: higher number to help offset the need for this huge
2:00:31
Speaker 9: gap that we had as far as you know pilots.
2:00:34
Speaker 9: Some of these regional carriers were offering one hundred thousand
2:00:36
Speaker 9: dollars sign on bonus for captains to come over. So,
2:00:40
Speaker 9: I mean, it was crazy with what was going on.
2:00:44
Speaker 9: And yeah, but again, sixty five is it and it
2:00:47
Speaker 9: continues to be the case, and maybe eventually we'll see it.
2:00:51
Speaker 9: There's bipartisan effort to raise it. I just don't know
2:00:53
Speaker 9: what's holding it back.
2:00:54
Speaker 1: Well, if to the exens the rest of the world
2:00:56
Speaker 1: holding it back. If we do it, let's let the
2:00:58
Speaker 1: sixty six sixty seven year old pilots fly domestically and
2:01:01
Speaker 1: let the one sixty five and underfly internationally until the
2:01:04
Speaker 1: whole world changes its tune and wakes up to a
2:01:06
Speaker 1: sense of reality.
2:01:08
Speaker 9: But when you get that seniority, you want the international
2:01:11
Speaker 9: longer flights because then you work fewer days a week
2:01:13
Speaker 9: a month in your homework and that's why a lot
2:01:15
Speaker 9: of people will take those international trips.
2:01:17
Speaker 1: All right, Well it's that or maybe no longer be employed.
2:01:20
Speaker 1: We'll let them wrestle it out, Jay Ratliff, don't go away.
2:01:23
Speaker 1: Things may be improving over United Airlines plus another near
2:01:26
Speaker 1: MYSS we can talk about and viral images relating to
2:01:30
Speaker 1: aircraft issues. Don't go away more with Jay Rayeliff after these.
2:01:32
Speaker 3: Words fifty five KRC years of early morning hears the
2:01:37
Speaker 3: talk station. Have you ever been in the cockpit before?
2:01:40
Speaker 1: Jay Radliff has the's iHeartMedia aviation expert. He's a pilot.
2:01:45
Speaker 1: Talk all aviation issues with Jay on Thursdays, beginning at
2:01:47
Speaker 1: a thirty continuing on real quick here. In terms of
2:01:50
Speaker 1: the mandatory retirement agent for captains at sixty five, my
2:01:52
Speaker 1: buddy retired Navy probably served as country pat Swaby said
2:01:58
Speaker 1: his cousin was an air traffic controller and they had
2:01:59
Speaker 1: a maanatory retirement age of fifty five. Is that accurate?
2:02:02
Speaker 4: Jay?
2:02:03
Speaker 9: It was, and I don't know if it's still fifty five,
2:02:06
Speaker 9: but it was an age less than the pilots. It's
2:02:09
Speaker 9: very stressful, and especially these days with everything that's going on,
2:02:12
Speaker 9: with the fact that we have so much of an
2:02:17
Speaker 9: understaffed facility across the country with air traffic control centers that, Yeah,
2:02:22
Speaker 9: it is even more so because there's force over time
2:02:26
Speaker 9: for a lot of these individuals. And that's one only
2:02:28
Speaker 9: time we you and I talk about a near miss.
2:02:30
Speaker 9: One of the things that's looked at is the controller
2:02:33
Speaker 9: on duty. How long have they been on duty? Are
2:02:35
Speaker 9: they on overtime? Are they in the right position? I mean,
2:02:38
Speaker 9: you all kinds questions because of that issue.
2:02:41
Speaker 1: I get it. And also the potential shortage of five
2:02:44
Speaker 1: and a quarter flopping drives Jay to keep the system running.
2:02:46
Speaker 1: That's an ilse frightening proposition.
2:02:48
Speaker 9: All right, Well, yeah, let's get away from those for sure.
2:02:51
Speaker 1: I imagine it is an unbelievably stressful job. I mean,
2:02:54
Speaker 1: all these folks lives are in your hands, and pivot
2:02:56
Speaker 1: over to Boston where we have two planes almost flying
2:02:58
Speaker 1: into each other up in here.
2:03:00
Speaker 9: Yeah, and the audio is pretty clear on this. You
2:03:02
Speaker 9: have air traffic control in Boston that's giving an American
2:03:05
Speaker 9: Airlines jet permission to take off, and you also have
2:03:09
Speaker 9: at the same time the tower giving a permission for
2:03:13
Speaker 9: delta flight to come in land. Now, as you can see,
2:03:16
Speaker 9: the overlay of the aircraft as they're moving or preparing
2:03:21
Speaker 9: to they're about to occupy the same spot at the
2:03:23
Speaker 9: same time at the Logan Airport in Boston. So what
2:03:27
Speaker 9: happens is the American flight starts to roll for takeoff
2:03:30
Speaker 9: as they were cleared to do. Delta's coming into land
2:03:33
Speaker 9: and the crew notices as they're checking because they always,
2:03:36
Speaker 9: you know, they're gonna double check everything, they see that
2:03:38
Speaker 9: aircraft taken off, and the Delta crew on their own says,
2:03:42
Speaker 9: we are not landing, and they bought the approach and
2:03:45
Speaker 9: they peel off. They let air traffic control know what's
2:03:47
Speaker 9: going on, at which point then the air traffic controller says, hey, American, what.
2:03:51
Speaker 4: Are you doing.
2:03:52
Speaker 9: They're like, we're doing what you told us to do.
2:03:54
Speaker 9: We were cleared to take off. So nobody got hurt,
2:03:58
Speaker 9: thankfully for a very very alert Delta crew that you
2:04:02
Speaker 9: did what they were trained to do. And the FAA
2:04:05
Speaker 9: and the National Transportation Safety Border investigate to find out
2:04:08
Speaker 9: what happened, because again, was this somebody that was in
2:04:12
Speaker 9: typical protocol unless they've changed radically. The procedure in the
2:04:16
Speaker 9: tower is when somebody's involved in this, they're removed off
2:04:20
Speaker 9: the job right then for you know, drug and alcohol
2:04:23
Speaker 9: testing and an evaluation and just to make sure everything
2:04:27
Speaker 9: there is good. But yeah, we'll find out what happened
2:04:30
Speaker 9: and hopefully make aviation safeer as a result.
2:04:32
Speaker 1: Real quick, here, in a few moments we have here,
2:04:35
Speaker 1: can you briefly address the United Airlines reservation center upgrade.
2:04:39
Speaker 4: Yeah.
2:04:40
Speaker 9: One of the biggest frustrations United was hearing from their
2:04:43
Speaker 9: consumers was when I call you your reservation center, I've
2:04:46
Speaker 9: got to go through all of this annoying artificial intelligence.
2:04:50
Speaker 9: I'm an automated computer. I can help you, and you
2:04:53
Speaker 9: go through ten or fifteen questions and then you finally
2:04:56
Speaker 9: get transferred to an agent. Well, the problem is the
2:04:59
Speaker 9: agent had no idea deal what you were chatting with
2:05:01
Speaker 9: back and forth with that stupid computer, so they have
2:05:03
Speaker 9: to ask all those same questions again. It was very,
2:05:06
Speaker 9: very fresh. So what United has done is they said, like,
2:05:08
Speaker 9: we've heard those concerns, and here's what we're.
2:05:10
Speaker 4: Going to do.
2:05:11
Speaker 9: All of that data that you communicate back and forth
2:05:14
Speaker 9: with that automated system, when you're transferred to an agent,
2:05:17
Speaker 9: all of that's going to come with you, so that
2:05:19
Speaker 9: the agent that takes the call has got an idea
2:05:21
Speaker 9: of what you've already discussed where things are at, and
2:05:24
Speaker 9: we can resolve the situation faster.
2:05:26
Speaker 4: I love it.
2:05:27
Speaker 9: That's I'm really really glad. I wish, like every other
2:05:30
Speaker 9: company on the planet would adopt that fact. I wish
2:05:33
Speaker 9: they would just flush that stupid automated system because I
2:05:36
Speaker 9: get it they trying to save money. But Brian, what
2:05:38
Speaker 9: an aggra evating thing to go through.
2:05:40
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the epitome of not thinking about customer service. First,
2:05:44
Speaker 1: wo simple fix. We're going to talk about viral stuff,
2:05:47
Speaker 1: dogs on planes and crazy passenger gate conversations more with
2:05:52
Speaker 1: Jay rather after these words fifty five KRC MET talk
2:05:56
Speaker 1: station eight forty nine. If you have cares, see the
2:06:00
Speaker 1: detalk station one more with Jay Ratliffe. I heard media
2:06:02
Speaker 1: the aviation expert finishing out on what I hope is
2:06:05
Speaker 1: a lighter area topic. Here image of a dog on
2:06:08
Speaker 1: a plane has gone viral. What's this one?
2:06:11
Speaker 4: Jay?
2:06:11
Speaker 9: Oh, it's a fun story. Let me quickly though, if
2:06:13
Speaker 9: I may wish Rachel's Ziggler. She's one of the honor
2:06:17
Speaker 9: flight people that we work with. It's her birthday today.
2:06:21
Speaker 9: I wanted to say happy birthday to Rachel she's got
2:06:24
Speaker 9: two daughters that raised tens of thousands of dollars for
2:06:27
Speaker 9: honor flights.
2:06:28
Speaker 1: Oh weight birthday ever, but God bless the dog.
2:06:31
Speaker 9: Yes, absolutely especial people. Back to the dog story. There's
2:06:36
Speaker 9: this picture that's gone viral of a dog that was
2:06:39
Speaker 9: on a plane that was actually sitting a small dog on.
2:06:43
Speaker 4: A tree table.
2:06:44
Speaker 9: Now, we are allowed, at a cost to take a
2:06:48
Speaker 9: pet on board an aircraft with us. The airlines allow
2:06:50
Speaker 9: us to do that, they charge us for it. The
2:06:52
Speaker 9: pet has to be in a small carry on container
2:06:55
Speaker 9: that's underneath the seat in front of us. And the
2:06:57
Speaker 9: deal is Brian the dog or cat or whatever it is,
2:07:00
Speaker 9: stays in that carrier. You don't get them out. Okay,
2:07:04
Speaker 9: Apparently this woman thought, man, I'm gonna get the dog out,
2:07:06
Speaker 9: and only that I'm gonna put his butt right here
2:07:08
Speaker 9: on the tray table. And the picture that went viral.
2:07:11
Speaker 9: It's kind of like, well, wait a minute, Jaya. They
2:07:13
Speaker 9: clean these tray tables off after every flight. No, you're
2:07:18
Speaker 9: lucky if you get it at the end of the
2:07:20
Speaker 9: day with the aircraft. And that's why so many times
2:07:23
Speaker 9: you'll see Look, if you fly with Sherry and I,
2:07:26
Speaker 9: you'll see us many times grab an alcoholic wipe. Yeah,
2:07:29
Speaker 9: wipe down the tray, table, the entertainment screen, the arm rests,
2:07:32
Speaker 9: head rest, Not because germ freak, but it's simply because
2:07:36
Speaker 9: I can't trust that to be done the same way
2:07:39
Speaker 9: I'm not going to drink the alcohol or the tea
2:07:42
Speaker 9: or the coffee because of the water systems. We've talked
2:07:45
Speaker 9: about how those water pipes aren't clean and the horrific
2:07:49
Speaker 9: pictures and images on Google. You can look it up
2:07:52
Speaker 9: and yeah, it's it's the yeah. But so, yeah, that's.
2:07:58
Speaker 1: The rest of a dog, I mean a dog. It's like, Okay,
2:08:01
Speaker 1: what are you gonna give him? A dog? Maybe the
2:08:03
Speaker 1: dog walking in something. But you know, I think more
2:08:04
Speaker 1: broadly of things like MRSA. You know, I mean on
2:08:08
Speaker 1: human beings touching trays and the trays not being washed out.
2:08:11
Speaker 1: Why do you think they give you wipes at the
2:08:13
Speaker 1: Kroger to wipe off your the handrail on your on
2:08:15
Speaker 1: your cart before you go on in and get groceries. Yuck.
2:08:19
Speaker 9: That's why a lot of times flight intends will stop
2:08:21
Speaker 9: kids running to the laboratory in their bare feet. You no, no, sweety,
2:08:24
Speaker 9: go back and get your shoes on. Is because we don't.
2:08:28
Speaker 9: I mean, it's it's a crime scene. If you went
2:08:30
Speaker 9: in there with one of those black lights, it's just no, no, no,
2:08:32
Speaker 9: no no, even though they're supposed to be you know,
2:08:34
Speaker 9: screened and or you know, sanitizing and scrubbed down and cleaned.
2:08:38
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not.
2:08:41
Speaker 4: It's not.
2:08:42
Speaker 1: And another great reason why you really don't want to
2:08:45
Speaker 1: join the mile high club in the airline bathroom. No no, no,
2:08:49
Speaker 1: cross no.
2:08:49
Speaker 9: Not unless you never want to fly that airline again.
2:08:51
Speaker 1: Well there's that. Yeah, you may get kicked off for life.
2:08:54
Speaker 1: But then again there's the germs and the hire disgusting
2:08:56
Speaker 1: nature of bathrooms on airplanes. All right, let's go to
2:08:59
Speaker 1: Canada where you have another viral video.
2:09:02
Speaker 6: Yeah.
2:09:02
Speaker 9: I had a passenger. She was in the gate area.
2:09:05
Speaker 9: She had been off of a canceled flight. She was
2:09:07
Speaker 9: on another flight. She's supposed to fly business class. The
2:09:10
Speaker 9: flight she was diverted to because of her first light
2:09:13
Speaker 9: canceling didn't have it. She's in the gate area, strikes
2:09:16
Speaker 9: up a conversation with another man who's traveling on the
2:09:18
Speaker 9: same flight. They chat for about fifteen minutes or so,
2:09:21
Speaker 9: and as the woman's getting on board the flight, the
2:09:23
Speaker 9: man says, excuse me, I want you to take my seat.
2:09:26
Speaker 9: He was the vice president of Air Canada. Flying in
2:09:28
Speaker 9: business class. He said, let's trade seats. You take mine,
2:09:31
Speaker 9: I'll take youres. He goes back and sits in her
2:09:34
Speaker 9: uncomfortable seat so she can enjoy her trip in another one.
2:09:38
Speaker 9: It was just such a nice, nice thing, but it
2:09:41
Speaker 9: reminded me of people like Ed Bashian, who's the head
2:09:43
Speaker 9: of Delpha. He flies business the comfort plus seats or coach.
2:09:48
Speaker 9: He won't sit up front. He wants to give those
2:09:51
Speaker 9: to the passengers that want to pay for them, that
2:09:53
Speaker 9: have earned them through the frequent flyer program. So that's
2:09:57
Speaker 9: good to see. But it was just really nice that
2:09:59
Speaker 9: somebody like that. Wasn't a super long flight, but it
2:10:02
Speaker 9: was a story that went viral because the lady said
2:10:04
Speaker 9: she was totally caught off guard by the fact that
2:10:07
Speaker 9: this man would just quickly say, hey, take my seat,
2:10:09
Speaker 9: because you know, we apologize for what you went through
2:10:13
Speaker 9: and this won't make up for it, but you know,
2:10:14
Speaker 9: maybe it'll help.
2:10:15
Speaker 1: That's great. So this gives him a real life feel
