  Speaker 7: the news and then we'll tell you our analysis of
• 0:48
  Speaker 7: the deuce. But most importantly, I want to hear how
• 0:51
  Speaker 7: it's impacting you where you are. And you can do
• 0:55
  Speaker 7: this through four three four eight eight two four two
• 0:59
  Speaker 7: one seven. You can text message, which is the most
• 1:02
  Speaker 7: popular format right now. Because I know how mornings are.
• 1:07
  Speaker 7: I just do Unlike a lot of folks who have
• 1:10
  Speaker 7: lived in isolation. I've been unemployed on occasion and I've
• 1:14
  Speaker 7: had to be mister mom, and those are important moments
• 1:16
  Speaker 7: for me. Not that I enjoyed being unemployed, but I
• 1:20
  Speaker 7: got to realize what your world is like a whole
• 1:23
  Speaker 7: lot better than other folks who have just never left
• 1:26
  Speaker 7: the radio studio first thing in the morning.
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: So I get it.
• 1:30
  Speaker 7: So text message four three four eight eight two for
• 1:34
  Speaker 7: two one seven Hal sends this in perhaps the General
• 1:41
  Speaker 7: Assembly in my home state of Virginia is working to
• 1:44
  Speaker 7: crash the system. Thanks for mentioning span Berger's affordable talk
• 1:49
  Speaker 7: while the Dems are pushing more taxes. You know how
• 1:52
  Speaker 7: this is controversial here in our flagship state because a
• 1:55
  Speaker 7: lot of people are emailing me saying.
• 1:57
  Speaker 5: Why didn't you ask dot dot?
• 2:02
  Speaker 7: And the media is taking a lot of hits over
• 2:04
  Speaker 7: this because we're the ones who never asked her about it.
• 2:08
  Speaker 7: I was never given the opportunity to ask Abigail Spanberger
• 2:13
  Speaker 7: anything about her future tax proposals.
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: I will bring up that.
• 2:19
  Speaker 7: A subtext, and it briefly came up in their short
• 2:22
  Speaker 7: debate with one another when some seers did bring up
• 2:26
  Speaker 7: the issue of higher taxes. But I don't think anyone
• 2:30
  Speaker 7: had any inkling of the kind of craziness that was coming. However,
• 2:38
  Speaker 7: it's important to learn this as we're going into the midterms,
• 2:41
  Speaker 7: wherever you're facing a congressional race, and some of you
• 2:44
  Speaker 7: are facing Senate races as well, the affordability banner was
• 2:50
  Speaker 7: road tested in two and twenty five in New Jersey,
• 2:56
  Speaker 7: in and in virgin Here that's going to be the
• 3:02
  Speaker 7: mantra going into the midterms. We will make your life
• 3:06
  Speaker 7: more affordable. What they're going to do is raise taxes
• 3:10
  Speaker 7: on people. And this goes back to the ideological subversion
• 3:14
  Speaker 7: of the Marxist of the socialist, is that if you
• 3:19
  Speaker 7: have enough money to pay taxes, that means.
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: You are an exploiter.
• 3:24
  Speaker 7: You have exploited somebody, and therefore you need to be
• 3:28
  Speaker 7: punished and brought that back down to size because of
• 3:32
  Speaker 7: your exploitation of the working class or the so and
• 3:38
  Speaker 7: so or Meanwhile, these are the folks who are supporting
• 3:40
  Speaker 7: the illegal migration to the United States into a class
• 3:44
  Speaker 7: of folks that not only doesn't know the language, but
• 3:46
  Speaker 7: doesn't know what their rights and responsibilities are. But you're
• 3:51
  Speaker 7: the exploiter, and you should be just glad that we've
• 3:55
  Speaker 7: left you something behind to rub together for warmth on
• 4:00
  Speaker 7: these cold winter nights. By the way, as we get
• 4:04
  Speaker 7: our first things out here this morning, pung Satani phil

• 4:33
  Speaker 7: arrived outside of the Immigration and custom Enforcement detention center
• 4:38
  Speaker 7: in the city, demanding that they leave. When the protesters
• 4:45
  Speaker 7: didn't leave, tear gas was deployed to.
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: Make that more.
• 4:52
  Speaker 7: Clear of a decision for the agitators. Unfortunately, there were
• 4:56
  Speaker 7: children that had been brought along by the agitators in
• 4:59
  Speaker 7: the crowd, and now the press coverage is that the
• 5:02

  Speaker 7: pushing back against doxing of their agents DHS, the statement goes,
• 5:14
  Speaker 7: will never confirm or deny attempts to dox our officers,
• 5:20
  Speaker 7: but doxing them puts their lives and their families in
• 5:23
  Speaker 7: serious danger. Ten thousand FAA employees have been furloughed as

  Speaker 7: on Groundhog Day. The partial government shutdown enters its first

  Speaker 7: Center for two years as a revitalization and rebuilding projects,

  Speaker 7: saying that a full shutdown would allow them to achieve

• 8:07
  Speaker 8: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
• 8:13
  Speaker 8: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
• 8:18
  Speaker 8: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
• 8:22
  Speaker 8: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
• 8:26
  Speaker 8: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
• 8:32
  Speaker 8: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 8:37
  Speaker 8: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
• 8:42
  Speaker 8: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
• 8:46

• 8:51

• 10:00
  Speaker 10: It's always a boy. Growing up on a farm in Tennessee,
• 10:03
  Speaker 10: I've been fascinated with animals. I'm not only in awe
• 10:05
  Speaker 10: of their beauty and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic.
• 10:08
  Speaker 10: Just look at the birds who gather supplies to build nests,
• 10:11
  Speaker 10: or Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,
• 10:14
  Speaker 10: or penguins who travel up to five hundred miles to
• 10:17

• 10:20
  Speaker 10: jump allows them to navigate the trees and the wild
• 10:23
  Speaker 10: in search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared
• 10:25
  Speaker 10: by our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are
• 10:29
  Speaker 10: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
• 10:32
  Speaker 10: they also perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep
• 10:35
  Speaker 10: us safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of
• 10:37
  Speaker 10: whom suffer from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them

  Speaker 12: And now a speech.
• 11:07
  Speaker 13: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
• 11:10
  Speaker 13: heart and brain. Who's with me?
• 11:13
  Speaker 11: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and my
• 11:15
  Speaker 11: brain is saying when it's time to go home.

• 12:32
  Speaker 15: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
• 12:35
  Speaker 15: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased

• 13:11
  Speaker 1: On your to do list. Putting the radio on is
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: the first thing today.
• 13:17
  Speaker 12: You're just call this ice.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: You're willing.
• 13:24
  Speaker 7: So when Bad Bunny gets up on stage and says
• 13:28
  Speaker 7: no ice, when the protesters gather in Portland and say
• 13:33
  Speaker 7: no ice, what are they actually saying. I know you're
• 13:37
  Speaker 7: looking at your radio and saying they're saying no ice.
• 13:43
  Speaker 7: No it's more than that. They man not realize it
• 13:47
  Speaker 7: because so many of them are just looking to belong.
• 13:51
  Speaker 7: They want to be in the group that is seen
• 13:53
  Speaker 7: as caring, and recruitment into these kind of riots like
• 13:58
  Speaker 7: took place in Portland on Saturday are generally trafficked under
• 14:04
  Speaker 7: the banner of inclusion. We want to be part of something,
• 14:09
  Speaker 7: We want to be part of a movement. And some
• 14:15
  Speaker 7: of it is because things are really relatively good in
• 14:19
  Speaker 7: the United States. So what is there really to protest?
• 14:22
  Speaker 7: What great injustice is there? And that's what head smacks
• 14:29
  Speaker 7: me all the time, you know how, I like to paraphrase.
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: The movie quote, I love the smell of face palm
• 14:43
  Speaker 5: in the morning, because.
• 14:48
  Speaker 7: What they're doing is actually suborning the maltreatment of people.
• 14:55
  Speaker 7: They protest as if they think that they're out there
• 14:59
  Speaker 7: doing some great Kung kindness. But what is bad Bunny
• 15:04
  Speaker 7: saying when he says no ice, he's saying no law.
• 15:12
  Speaker 7: You have no law enforcement, You have no law. This
• 15:15
  Speaker 7: goes back to the last time Minneapolis was the center
• 15:18
  Speaker 7: square of law enforcement, and rather than address what brought
• 15:27
  Speaker 7: George Floyd into his interaction with the police officers, it
• 15:31
  Speaker 7: was simply about his interaction with the police officers.
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: And that's the bait and switch in the.
• 15:39
  Speaker 7: Whole thing is look over here at the pretty girl
• 15:45
  Speaker 7: in the shiny dress, and don't notice the stage hand
• 15:48
  Speaker 7: walking the tiger off the stage over here. That's the
• 15:53
  Speaker 7: magician's act. It's not that he can do something. He
• 15:57
  Speaker 7: can make you not notice that he did something. And
• 16:01
  Speaker 7: that's what's happening with these protests. These riots are designed
• 16:06
  Speaker 7: to distract you from the anarchy that they're suborning. They
• 16:11
  Speaker 7: want a world where there are no laws, so that
• 16:17
  Speaker 7: the government can come in and say that's it.
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: You've had your fun. Go back.
• 16:25
  Speaker 7: Harken back to then Illinois State Senator Barack Obama telling
• 16:32
  Speaker 7: the folks on NPR right after his.
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: Stunning speech.
• 16:38
  Speaker 7: The two thousand and four DNC Convention, Oh my goodness,
• 16:41
  Speaker 7: he just brought the house down.
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: Who is this guy? Where is he from?
• 16:50
  Speaker 7: And so he was telling them in this interview, this
• 16:54
  Speaker 7: profile they were doing, saying, oh, well, let's meet this guy,
• 16:57
  Speaker 7: let's find out what he's all about. We never interviewed before.
• 17:00
  Speaker 7: And they said, well, sir, you're a constitutional professor, aren't you.
• 17:04
  Speaker 7: You're listed as an expert in the US Constitution.
• 17:08
  Speaker 14: What is it.
• 17:12
  Speaker 7: In the Constitution that you would see to change. This
• 17:17
  Speaker 7: is really some of the first times change that you
• 17:20
  Speaker 7: can believe in comes into Barack Obama's story, and he
• 17:32
  Speaker 7: starts out by saying, well, I don't believe that the
• 17:39
  Speaker 7: government that the Constitution establishes helps people enough. The government,
• 17:46
  Speaker 7: the constitution is too restrictive on the government, doesn't give
• 17:51
  Speaker 7: us enough leeway to help people. He would prefer to
• 17:54
  Speaker 7: see a government that was built on a document more
• 17:58
  Speaker 7: attuned to the government should be doing for the people.
• 18:03
  Speaker 7: And I understand that this is this is a young
• 18:06
  Speaker 7: man who was brought up by a single mom living
• 18:10
  Speaker 7: on a lot of government assistance, because you know, the
• 18:13
  Speaker 7: dreams of my deadbeat dad had abandoned the family years earlier,
• 18:25
  Speaker 7: and so he sees the government as somebody who should
• 18:28
  Speaker 7: be helping people like his mom. And I know there's
• 18:31
  Speaker 7: a lot of oh well, Valerie, Jared and all these
• 18:34
  Speaker 7: other you know, liberation theology and all of this, and
• 18:38
  Speaker 7: the reverend and the pulpit he was in.
• 18:42
  Speaker 5: I get it.
• 18:44
  Speaker 7: But these these are things ideas are some of the
• 18:48
  Speaker 7: most verulent things because you can never get rid of one.
• 18:53
  Speaker 7: So you grow up ten fifteen years watching your mom
• 18:56
  Speaker 7: struggle to make ends meet on government handouts that never
• 19:01
  Speaker 7: seems sufficient. Eventually, you're going to grow up into a
• 19:04
  Speaker 7: guy that thinks the government should do more for people.
• 19:09
  Speaker 7: And that's what these riots are trying to put us
• 19:11
  Speaker 7: into a place where there's sufficient anarchy that we will
• 19:15
  Speaker 7: vote to void the US Constitution, give it a spot
• 19:21
  Speaker 7: in the Smithsonian. Oh, we'll keep all the same trappings. Well,
• 19:25
  Speaker 7: even after the Roman Empire fell, the Roman Senate kept meeting,
• 19:30
  Speaker 7: so all the trappings of Rome kept going on, even
• 19:34
  Speaker 7: after that had long since been invaded and conquered. Muscle memory,
• 19:40
  Speaker 7: if you will. But we'll take the US Constitution and
• 19:45
  Speaker 7: those Bill of Rights quaint as they were and put
• 19:49
  Speaker 7: them in the Smithsonian Institution so people can come and see, saying,
• 19:53
  Speaker 7: wasn't that cute? The government was just supposed to protect
• 19:57
  Speaker 7: our right to free speech? Have you heard most people?
• 20:00
  Speaker 7: And that will be the narrative, you know, Oh, you can't.
• 20:03
  Speaker 7: You can't have free speech because people say bad things.
• 20:09
  Speaker 7: You can't have property ownership because greed, because not everyone
• 20:13
  Speaker 7: can afford it, because the government has played around in
• 20:19
  Speaker 7: the property ownership world and made it inaffordable. So So
• 20:23
  Speaker 7: this young kid from Illinois comes along, and people are
• 20:26
  Speaker 7: impressed by him, and they gravitate to the possibility got.
• 20:32
  Speaker 16: The first sort of mazetream African American who is articulate
• 20:39
  Speaker 16: and bright.
• 20:40
  Speaker 17: And clean, and my cycing guy.
• 20:44
  Speaker 7: I mean, it's that's a story book, the storybook, right Joe.
• 20:49
  Speaker 7: And they gave him the keys to the candy shop.
• 20:52
  Speaker 7: And we're still in this world where nobody wants to
• 20:57
  Speaker 7: answer the actual question. So bad One, when you say
• 21:00
  Speaker 7: no ice, you mean no property ownership. I imagine Bad
• 21:05
  Speaker 7: Bunny owns some very nice property somewhere, probably with a
• 21:09
  Speaker 7: recording studio in the basement somewhere in Hollywood.
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: Maybe.
• 21:15
  Speaker 7: How much of that money have you given to the poor.
• 21:18
  Speaker 7: How many of these non citizens have you sponsored to
• 21:22
  Speaker 7: get their citizenship? Bad Bunny, Oh, he'll just he'll get
• 21:27
  Speaker 7: a virtue signal at the Grammy Awards, and Lord only
• 21:31
  Speaker 7: knows he'll probably spend the entire Super Bowl halftime show
• 21:35
  Speaker 7: virtue signaling as well. They want no law enforcement so
• 21:45
  Speaker 7: that they can bring on the anarchy that will leave
• 21:49
  Speaker 7: us no choice but to vote for a more authoritarian rule.
• 21:54
  Speaker 7: And the premise was born in Russia, not in the
• 21:58
  Speaker 7: Soviet Union.
• 22:00
  Speaker 18: After it, Hey Brandt, and her name is Shary.
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: I love.
• 22:04
  Speaker 18: She's a friend of mine whom we were just praying
• 22:06
  Speaker 18: for because of a surgery.
• 22:08
  Speaker 5: She just went through.
• 22:09
  Speaker 17: Yes, and I am very happy about something you actually
• 22:11
  Speaker 17: talk about all the time, which is meta share.
• 22:14
  Speaker 12: That is right.
• 22:14
  Speaker 18: Yeah, So what was your experience like with meta share
• 22:17
  Speaker 18: and health care ability?
• 22:18
  Speaker 17: Honestly, Brandt seamless and what a blessing that is. When
• 22:21
  Speaker 17: you're already nervous about a health issue, which I was.
• 22:24
  Speaker 17: Members shared my expenses. There were zero problems. And let
• 22:27
  Speaker 17: me tell you, having people pray with you when you
• 22:30
  Speaker 17: call in with your need that is just refreshing.
• 22:34
  Speaker 12: Yes, that's what it is.
• 22:35
  Speaker 18: I keep telling people. People love meta share and they
• 22:38
  Speaker 18: love saving money. The typical family can save five hundred
• 22:41
  Speaker 18: dollars a month.
• 22:42
  Speaker 17: I am very thankful for meta share. It is so different,
• 22:46

• 23:06
  Speaker 20: Artificial intelligence is everywhere, and now it's helping veterinarians deliver
• 23:11
  Speaker 20: better care for pets. From AI assisted radiographs that speed
• 23:16
  Speaker 20: up diagnoses to tools that help spot diseases, AI supports
• 23:20
  Speaker 20: veterinary teams in exciting ways. We're using AI to develop
• 23:25
  Speaker 20: personalized cancer treatments, predict chronic conditions like feline kidney disease,
• 23:31
  Speaker 20: and even streamline record keeping so veterinarians can focus more
• 23:34
  Speaker 20: on patients. But, as with any new technology, always keep
• 23:40
  Speaker 20: a human in the loop to maintain the best pet healthcare.
• 23:44
  Speaker 20: AI is a powerful tool, but not a replacement for

  Speaker 8: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
• 24:07
  Speaker 8: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
• 24:12
  Speaker 8: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
• 24:18
  Speaker 8: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
• 24:22
  Speaker 8: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
• 24:26
  Speaker 8: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
• 24:31
  Speaker 8: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 24:36
  Speaker 8: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
• 24:42
  Speaker 8: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
• 24:45
  Speaker 8: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

• 28:59
  Speaker 7: The apologies to my brothers and sisters. As Graduo marks
• 29:03
  Speaker 7: one said, I never want to be a member of
• 29:05
  Speaker 7: a club that would have me as a member. Broadcasters
• 29:09
  Speaker 7: around the country are apparently a lot more concerned than
• 29:12
  Speaker 7: I thought they were about Brendan Carr, and I'll get
• 29:15
  Speaker 7: into that in a moment. Some emails though that came in.
• 29:18
  Speaker 7: Ray writes, in seems to me that anyone bringing a
• 29:23
  Speaker 7: child to a situation where they intend to provoke violence
• 29:27
  Speaker 7: or have good reason to expect that others would be violent,
• 29:30
  Speaker 7: is guilty of child abuse. Where are the Oregon Child
• 29:35
  Speaker 7: Protective Services?
• 29:38
  Speaker 5: See?
• 29:39
  Speaker 7: You know now you're asking these big questions. See the
• 29:42
  Speaker 7: Oregon Child Protective Services are busy going finding Christian homeschoolers
• 29:48
  Speaker 7: to target to take away their kids because they're indoctrinating
• 29:52
  Speaker 7: them cult like. And you know, they're just behind the
• 29:58
  Speaker 7: Department of Transportation in terms of grift.
• 30:02
  Speaker 5: So we talked about this.
• 30:05
  Speaker 7: Two weeks ago, Brendan Carr making statements about how you
• 30:10
  Speaker 7: should be lucky the FCC allows you to keep broadcasting
• 30:14
  Speaker 7: that kind of thing, and took umbrage with it, saying,
• 30:18
  Speaker 7: excuse me, the FCC's job. And I still think Brendan
• 30:22
  Speaker 7: Carr doesn't understand this. But it's okay because this is
• 30:26
  Speaker 7: what happens over time, is we grow accustom to the
• 30:32
  Speaker 7: authoritarian cause.
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: So the.
• 30:36
  Speaker 7: Licensing status of broadcaster, whether it's one of our fine
• 30:42
  Speaker 7: affiliates or a TV station or anything, is really just
• 30:45
  Speaker 7: a deed saying I have paid for this transmission location.
• 30:51
  Speaker 7: I have paid for the best metaphor I can draw
• 30:54
  Speaker 7: to it. I have paid for this storefront in which
• 30:59
  Speaker 7: I'm going to commerce. As long as it is legal commerce,
• 31:03
  Speaker 7: I shouldn't have any problems. You are the guaranteur of
• 31:07
  Speaker 7: my lease on this property, or my deed to this property.
• 31:13
  Speaker 7: I have purchased it, and therefore, and your role is
• 31:17
  Speaker 7: simply to make sure nobody moves into my building and
• 31:23
  Speaker 7: starts selling my stuff while I'm not there or while
• 31:28
  Speaker 7: I'm asleep at night, nobody steals my radio. So Brendan
• 31:33
  Speaker 7: Carr comes out last week and starts talking about going
• 31:37
  Speaker 7: after people's licenses because they didn't provide equal time to
• 31:42
  Speaker 7: President Trump, and they made late night talk show hosts
• 31:46
  Speaker 7: made jokes, and as a free market capitalist, faster than
• 31:52
  Speaker 7: you can say, Adam Smith, my point to Brendan Carr,
• 31:55
  Speaker 7: if he asked, was have you seen their ratings?
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: Now?
• 32:02
  Speaker 7: We've talked about this in the past, where the news
• 32:06
  Speaker 7: casts and the late night talk shows have been hemorrhaging
• 32:12
  Speaker 7: audience for decades, and so much faster since Donald Trump
• 32:20
  Speaker 7: came onto the scene and they told fifty percent of
• 32:24
  Speaker 7: the American population, we're not interested in you watching here.
• 32:29
  Speaker 7: We just had John Luisiamo, who I enjoy as a performer.
• 32:35
  Speaker 7: He basically does the same character in various milieus come
• 32:40
  Speaker 7: out and say, don't follow me. If you support Ice,
• 32:44
  Speaker 7: don't follow me. If you support Donald Trump, don't come
• 32:47
  Speaker 7: see my shows, don't go see my movies. Okay, that's
• 32:53
  Speaker 7: pretty easy for me to do. At least he's willing
• 33:01
  Speaker 7: to say he's sacrificing half of his potential audience on
• 33:05
  Speaker 7: this altar of virtue signaling. But when Brendan Carr says
• 33:11
  Speaker 7: the FCC is going to come after broadcasters because they're
• 33:15
  Speaker 7: not providing an equally balanced look at the news, I'm
• 33:21
  Speaker 7: reminded of the times when we were able to, if
• 33:24
  Speaker 7: you were in an activist's role, shut down your opponent's
• 33:30
  Speaker 7: ability to counteract your message simply by denying a press
• 33:36
  Speaker 7: request to comment. So if you want, if you're a
• 33:40
  Speaker 7: pro climate change activist and the newsroom called you saying, hey,
• 33:45
  Speaker 7: we're going to do a piece on Chris Horner's book
• 33:49
  Speaker 7: Red Hot Lies, but we need to have you make
• 33:51
  Speaker 7: a comment on it, as equal time requires.
• 33:55
  Speaker 5: All you have to do is say I'm sorry, I've
• 33:58
  Speaker 5: got to milk the cat.
• 34:00
  Speaker 7: I have a peda protest against the Groundhog Day ceremony
• 34:04
  Speaker 7: in punk Satani.
• 34:05
  Speaker 5: I just I don't have time for it.
• 34:08
  Speaker 7: And then the newsroom couldn't air the interview with Chris
• 34:13
  Speaker 7: Horner about his book Power Grab or Politically Incorrect Guide
• 34:17
  Speaker 7: to Global Warming. So these fairness doctrines were actually being
• 34:21
  Speaker 7: used to quell's speech. And I was very worried that
• 34:24
  Speaker 7: Brendan Carr using this imagined authority to just take people's
• 34:29
  Speaker 7: licenses away. So in our industry trade Talkers magazine, a
• 34:35
  Speaker 7: piece that was picked up by Politico as well. And
• 34:38
  Speaker 7: now talk radio isn't a target of FCC's equal time notice,
• 34:43
  Speaker 7: according to Brendan Carr. Well, a government official said it's
• 34:49
  Speaker 7: not happening. Who am I to say that it would?
• 34:55
  Speaker 7: So John Hendel wrote the piece. FC chair Brendan Carr
• 35:01
  Speaker 7: says he's not worried about enforcing political fairness from radio
• 35:06
  Speaker 7: stations the same way he is with late night and
• 35:08
  Speaker 7: daytime television, okay, Car, And it goes in the column,
• 35:16
  Speaker 7: goes into recanting what I just told you. If you're
• 35:21
  Speaker 7: fake news, you're not going to qualify as bona fide
• 35:24
  Speaker 7: news exemptions, Carr said during a press conference at the
• 35:30
  Speaker 7: FCC's monthly meeting. Carr said Thursday, many TV programs were
• 35:39
  Speaker 7: improperly claiming to be news programs exempt from the equal
• 35:44
  Speaker 7: time rule, a situation he said is at odds with
• 35:49
  Speaker 7: what he believed to be the intent of Congress.
• 35:52
  Speaker 5: He complained of.
• 35:53
  Speaker 7: Quote potential misreading of precedence in the broadcast TV side.
• 36:01
  Speaker 7: It's a pattern in the administration, says Commissioner Ana Gomez,
• 36:09
  Speaker 7: of constantly berating the broadcasters and networks for content in
• 36:14
  Speaker 7: their programs. She added that the FCC is a what
• 36:23
  Speaker 7: does she call it, a political arm of this administration.
• 36:27
  Speaker 7: And this is part and parcel of why while I
• 36:29
  Speaker 7: get what Brendan Carr might be thinking and saying and
• 36:33
  Speaker 7: doing regarding how Donald Trump was treated on late night
• 36:36
  Speaker 7: television and all that, four years from now someone else
• 36:40
  Speaker 7: is going to be in that office, and four years
• 36:43
  Speaker 7: from now, somebody else is going to be the FCC Commissioner,
• 36:48
  Speaker 7: and we need to put the FCC, just like all
• 36:52
  Speaker 7: these other regulatory overreaches that have miss I don't even
• 36:59
  Speaker 7: want to say miss I think they've straight up perverted
• 37:01
  Speaker 7: the Commerce Clause to give themselves an authority that Congress
• 37:06
  Speaker 7: never intended them to have to interfere with our businesses,
• 37:09
  Speaker 7: to create this licensedure culture that allowed for the closure
• 37:15
  Speaker 7: of all our businesses under the banner of public health
• 37:19
  Speaker 7: see COVID nineteen. By the way, Francis Collins, the second
• 37:25
  Speaker 7: most dastardly figure in the COVID nineteen shutdowns, is getting
• 37:30
  Speaker 7: an award from some organization, the National Institute of shutting
• 37:35
  Speaker 7: down people and locking them in the basement or somebody.
• 37:38
  Speaker 7: And it's notable because he, like this program, comes from Stanton, Virginia.
• 37:43
  Speaker 7: And for those I mean, at least Francis Collins properly
• 37:46
  Speaker 7: grew up here. Unlike Woodrow Wilson, another technocrat who took
• 37:52
  Speaker 7: our rights away under the licensure while he watched movies
• 37:56
  Speaker 7: about the Klan, he only really lived here for about
• 38:00
  Speaker 7: a year.
• 38:01
  Speaker 18: Life can change so abruptly.
• 38:04
  Speaker 7: Just ask Paul.
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: He's a hard.
• 38:06
  Speaker 18: Working entrepreneur, he's young, he's got a young family. Suddenly,
• 38:09
  Speaker 18: though he develops a rare medical condition where he lost
• 38:12
  Speaker 18: the use of both of his arms.
• 38:14
  Speaker 13: I could no longer drive a car, couldn't use a computer, type,
• 38:17
  Speaker 13: couldn't use a mouse. I could not hold my son,
• 38:19
  Speaker 13: who was about a month old.
• 38:20
  Speaker 18: Paul and his family were facing a mountain of medical bills,
• 38:23
  Speaker 18: but they're so thankful that they're members of meta Share.
• 38:27
  Speaker 13: I think if someone asked me, like, hey, does medicare
• 38:30
  Speaker 13: really work? I'm living proof that it works. My four
• 38:33
  Speaker 13: children are living proof that it works. My arms, which
• 38:36
  Speaker 13: have been healed, are living proof that Menashare works. Just

  Speaker 13: are going to be taken care of when we have

• 45:22
  Speaker 7: And by the way, the National Examiner used to have
• 45:27
  Speaker 7: this audio file of the interview from the public radio
• 45:32
  Speaker 7: station in which young Illinois Senator Obama expressed such grave
• 45:39
  Speaker 7: concerns for the fact that our constitution doesn't provide proactive
• 45:46
  Speaker 7: answers and rules by which the government should be fixing
• 45:50
  Speaker 7: your life for you, Ray writes in, to the best
• 45:56
  Speaker 7: of my recollection, Barack Obama was never a professor of
• 45:59
  Speaker 7: constitutional law. He never rows up higher in the academic
• 46:02
  Speaker 7: rankings than senior lecturer. Lecturers are the academic non coms,
• 46:07
  Speaker 7: and there is a big difference between a senior lecturer
• 46:11
  Speaker 7: and a professor, as there is between a sergeant and
• 46:14
  Speaker 7: a full colonel. I'm just telling you what the NPR
• 46:18
  Speaker 7: folks referred to him as this was their driveling, sniffling
• 46:25
  Speaker 7: introduction to this serious deep thinker, constitutional expert, that they
• 46:31
  Speaker 7: were going to weigh in on this, this rising star,
• 46:35
  Speaker 7: this storybook character that exactly he was storybook before he
• 46:42
  Speaker 7: was storybrook storybook. So you know, all righteous cop there.
• 46:49
  Speaker 7: But I'll go to the transcript which is available you
• 46:53
  Speaker 7: can get at. Obama stated the Constitution limits government action
• 47:00
  Speaker 7: against citizen, but fails to outlie affirmative required obligation for
• 47:04
  Speaker 7: the government to provide for its citizens. The remarks, part
• 47:10
  Speaker 7: of a longer discussion on civil rights and the war
• 47:13
  Speaker 7: in court, indicated a belief that the Constitution did not
• 47:16
  Speaker 7: provide an appropriate framework for economic or social redistribution. He said,
• 47:27
  Speaker 7: the document was and this became a common narrative stained
• 47:35
  Speaker 7: by the nation's original sin of slavery. And this is
• 47:41
  Speaker 7: the founding fathers, and I will not debate. I can
• 47:45
  Speaker 7: bring back in Thomas Jefferson's eloquent rebuke of slavery that
• 47:51
  Speaker 7: he wrote into the Declaration of Independence, and that we
• 47:55
  Speaker 7: had had multiple legislative attempts to end slavery as a
• 48:00
  Speaker 7: rule in the colonies, only to have England step in.
• 48:04
  Speaker 7: I noticed that somebody is demanding that King Charles issue
• 48:09
  Speaker 7: a statement accepting responsibility and this is careful.
• 48:15
  Speaker 5: These are lawyers who do this.
• 48:16
  Speaker 7: So they want King Charles to issue a statement apologizing
• 48:21
  Speaker 7: for slavery. That's immediately when England's treasury becomes confiscated, because
• 48:32
  Speaker 7: as soon as the lawyers have a document in which
• 48:34
  Speaker 7: you admit your role in something, aha, we've got you now,
• 48:41
  Speaker 7: just saying.
• 48:44
  Speaker 5: Jim DeMint rights.
• 48:47
  Speaker 7: At the same time for the Heritage Foundation, mister Obama
• 48:52
  Speaker 7: displayed an ambivalence even before he became president. In one
• 48:57
  Speaker 7: of his two autobiographies, The Audacity of Hope, he wrote
• 49:01
  Speaker 7: that he couldn't completely reject the quote school of thought
• 49:05
  Speaker 7: that sees the founding fathers only as hypocrites and the
• 49:09
  Speaker 7: Constitution only as a betrayal of the grand ideals set
• 49:13
  Speaker 7: forth by the Declaration of Independence. I understand how the
• 49:20
  Speaker 7: as the two documents go. The Declaration of Independence first
• 49:23
  Speaker 7: and foremost was illegal filing, with the Court of Great
• 49:27
  Speaker 7: Britain and their their parliament saying listen, the king has
• 49:32
  Speaker 7: boom boom, boom boom, rattle off the abuses usurpations. We
• 49:37
  Speaker 7: no longer recognize him simply illegal filing. It does serve philosophically,
• 49:45
  Speaker 7: as the DNA of our country. And this is why
• 49:52
  Speaker 7: Jefferson's eloquent treaties regarding slavery is so important. What you
• 50:01
  Speaker 7: want it, I don't have it in the studio. If
• 50:03
  Speaker 7: you can get it for me before the show is over,
• 50:05
  Speaker 7: I'll put it into the public record again. And if
• 50:08
  Speaker 7: you've never seen it and we don't have time, go
• 50:12
  Speaker 7: look up Jefferson's original draft of the Declaration of Independence.
• 50:18
  Speaker 7: And I remember the first time I read that on
• 50:20
  Speaker 7: the air, I received phone calls from people saying, Joe,
• 50:25
  Speaker 7: that's just a conspiracy theory. That's just another one of
• 50:28
  Speaker 7: you right wing basement dwellers hiding in the basement to
• 50:35
  Speaker 7: tar and feather Barack Obama.
• 50:38
  Speaker 5: And it wasn't. No, you don't have it all right,
• 50:46
  Speaker 5: So maybe for.
• 50:46
  Speaker 7: A while, but basically it's the longest of all the
• 50:50
  Speaker 7: abuses and usurpations.
• 50:52
  Speaker 5: And I pointed this out.
• 50:53
  Speaker 7: A dear friend of mine is much more into Broadway
• 50:56
  Speaker 7: shows than I am, and reminded me that there's even
• 51:00
  Speaker 7: this incredible sequence in the film The Musical seventeen seventy
• 51:08
  Speaker 7: six about this very amendment, about this a very abuse
• 51:14
  Speaker 7: and usurpation. I forget the fellow's name that played. He
• 51:19
  Speaker 7: was in Northern exposure as well. He seems molasses and
• 51:26
  Speaker 7: taxes and slaves, something along those lines. And they do
• 51:31
  Speaker 7: this whole sequence about how South Carolina was against this
• 51:36
  Speaker 7: one portion and was going to avoid the whole declaration
• 51:39
  Speaker 7: of independence and probably narc on all the other co
• 51:43
  Speaker 7: conspirators to the king if they didn't take this section out.
• 51:54
  Speaker 7: But Barack Obama is the isn't the person who invented
• 52:01
  Speaker 7: this idea that America bad, But he became the most
• 52:07
  Speaker 7: powerful voice in the America Bad movement. He became the
• 52:16
  Speaker 7: most important, the most important salesman of that mindset that
• 52:27
  Speaker 7: America banded.
• 52:28
  Speaker 14: We got the.
• 52:28
  Speaker 16: First sort of mastream American America who was articulate and
• 52:36
  Speaker 16: bright and clean.

• 52:42
  Speaker 5: Gotta throw clean in there. Joe.
• 52:45
  Speaker 7: That would be his vice president anyway, until tomorrow. Thanks
• 52:48
  Speaker 7: for joining us so long, and thanks for all the fish.
• 52:51
  Speaker 24: A few years ago, my youngest son had something minor
• 52:55
  Speaker 24: turned into something very major in a matter of hours.
• 52:57
  Speaker 7: It was mediicere that came through for us.
