• 1:12
  Speaker 1: on AT and T phone. My name is Brian Thomas,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: host of this morning show fifty five Casey Morning Show.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Glad to be in this position, and I am looking
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: forward as I always am. Congressman Warren Davidson seven oh five,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: our first guest this morning. We'll talk about the primary
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: and the apparently the real work must start now is
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: we head on headlong into November, and while we need
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: to show up at the polls in November, I'm going
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: to be hammering on that from now until the election
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: in November. And I got a couple of words from
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: my Jewish fans in the audience are still wed to
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: the Democratic Party. Question why why? I've really, quite honestly,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: and I've said it out loud before and I'll say
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: it out loud again right now. Basically, why is it
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: that the Jewish community, generally speaking, it's like saying the
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: black community it's one percent for Democrats. We all know
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: that is not the case. But a large, large, overwhelmingly
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: sizable percentage of Black community votes for Democrats. I mean,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: that's what allowed Joe Biden to utter the words, if
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: you uh don't vote Democrat, you're not black. The audacity
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: of that. So I would never say, if you don't
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: vote Democrat You're not Jewish. How stupid would that sound?
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: But percentage wise, it's been widely demonstrated, and it's off,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: you know, polls out there and everything. Jewish people typically
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: vote for Democrats, and I've never understood that. And I
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: have lots of Jewish friends. I've also pointed that out
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: a lot of times. I'm proud of that. I love them.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Matter of fact, one of my best friends is Jewish.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: We disagree politically all the time. I've never been able
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: to figure out why he votes for the Democrats. But
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: I say this, you know, with a specific target in mind,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: and the absurdity of Graham Platner in Maine, the guy
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: with the Nazi tattoo and the guy who has uttered
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: some really foul things, things that fly in the face
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: of well the Democrats purport to support and believe in
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: all along, and yet they're openly they're embracing this guy
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: and he There are options bear, you know, James Freeman
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: wrote about this the other day. You know, there is
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: another candidate running for this pubb this position who's not
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: a crazy, demonstrably insane. I guess you can say former
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: supporter of Nazi ideology, given has got this Nazi tattoo
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: in his chest. Graham Platner, and I just I just
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: struggled this morning to kind of come to grips with
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: this painful reality. What are the Democrats all about? They
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: killed they They've spent how long, how many years, a
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: decade or more saying Donald Trump is a Nazi without
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: any demonstrable proof that is the case. They had to
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: twist the words of that Charlottesville riot, you know, they
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: are great people on both sides or whatever, when he
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: was only referring to the general population. He showed up
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: to see what was going at the protest, and in fact,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: there were good people on both sides. It was the
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: crazy people that were responsible for showing up and beating
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: up each other or fighting against each other. That well,
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: we can criticize, like the actual racist that might have
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: been there. Yeah, okay, there's a New York op ed
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: piece New York Times, the bashing of left wing journalism,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: right headline, New York Times. If Democrats have appropriate fear
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: of Trump, they will elect Platner In the way I
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: read that, if you listen to a Democrats, if they
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: have appropriate fear of the Nazi that is Trump, they
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: will elect the well overtly Nazi. That is Platiner. That's why,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: because he's our Nazi. You know, Trump is their Nazi.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: And in the op ed, guess is this is Frank Brunei,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: the op ed contributor to The New York Times, Graham
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Platner isn't my ideal center candidate, not even close. I'm
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: deeply troubled by the thinness of his political experience. So
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: the guy has no experience the primacy of raw anger
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: in his appeal to voters. Okay, so I guess he
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: has maybe a delivery mechanism that maybe mirrors Trump and
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: the bluntness of his message and the message itself, the
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: underlying message comes across as pretty contrary to what the
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: Democrats believe in. For example, as the op ed opinion
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: writer writes, the primacy's raw anger his appeal to voters,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: and by the oddities and ugliness from a Nazi tattoo
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: to a fondness for gay and gayest as put downs,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: like as in him saying, oh that's gay, not refer
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: to the sexuality as a gay person, but the derogatory
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: nature we have traditionally, and I know it's offensive to
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: the gay community to say oh, that's gay, and not
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: mean it in terms of sexuality, but mean it in
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: terms of a putdown. That is Platiner, and that is
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: what he has done, I guess. And also he interjects,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: and in his not so distant past he has been
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: doing this and saying things like this. He only recently
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: had the toten koff Nazi tattoo covered up. Why because
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: it was politically a liability. Otherwise he wouldn't have covered
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: it up. So every time he's got his shirt off
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: at the beach, he is proudly displaying, well, I suppose
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: his support for the Nazis, because there's no other way
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: you can you can interpret that totankf tat tattoo. This
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: Brunei op ed opinion writer links to a political story
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: describing Platner's release of a video quote off, bringing a
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: lengthy explanation and expressing regret for his Reddit comments that
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: endorse political violence, minimized rape in the military, and disparaged police.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: You can't unring that bell Man. And yet the op
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: ed opinion writer concludes, in spite of all of that criticism,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: all that acknowledged upfront baggage, awful as it may be,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: of Graham Platner, his record demonstrably showing him to be well,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: I guess a Nazi and somebody is not very sensitive
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: to the reality of the modern world. I don't know,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: he says, quote, but if I lived in Maine, i'd
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: vote for him in November, hmm, he said. Around his
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: country in key sentate house races, they'll be presented with
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: some Democratic nominees who are more progressive, more moderate than
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: they are, and who have discreet positions that unsettle them,
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: individual wards that defend them, biographies that aren't to their liking.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: It is ever thus and Platner's emergence last week as
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: the presumptive Democratic Senate nominee in Maine is a reminder
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: of that, okay, which is, we all have warts, we
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: all have our faults, But on balance, the sexist, racist,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: I guess, anti gay Platiner is better than the manufactured
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: criticism of Donald Trump, or, in the case of Maine
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: as a state, anyone who might support Donald Trump. So
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: you see, because if you support Donald Trump's policies, you
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: know buy inference, you therefore support Nazis, which means you
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: know that you know they extrapolate the whole Nazi things
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: again made up criticism of Trump. So if you're a
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Trump supporter, then you are I guess a Nazi supporter
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: by inference. But that is because you've extrained, You've sort
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: of created this myth that Donald Trump is in some way,
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: shape or form a Nazi. There's no evidence, a proof
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: of that. When you got a guy who literally has
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: a tone cough tattoo on his just which well can
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: I don't think you can draw any other conclusion that
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: that shows support for Why would you put a tattoo
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: on yourself unless you are at a desperate need for
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: expression of irony? You know, yeah, I got a Nazi tattoo. Well,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: because it's ironic. Of course, no one supports Nazis, right,
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: you know, it's like wearing the Phil Collins T shirt
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: when you're a young hipster. Who in the hell would
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: wear that? It was from a movie. I can't remember
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: which movie that was, but it was great. It's irony. Man, No,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: I don't like Phil Collins. I'm wearing a Phil Collins
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: T shirt. No, you can't do that with a Nazi tattoo.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: And it's funny because you know there is another person
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: the race who's still there running as a Democrat, someone
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: who gives them an option in Maine over the Nazi,
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: anti gay person whatever. David Costello still in there. And
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: it's funny because Freeman in the Wall Street Jura points out,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: I said, wait a second, Brunie, you don't have to
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: sort of swallow the reality that this is a terrible
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: guy and that you know, yes, he has a lot
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: of wards and you're willing to overlook him because well,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: it's better than a Republican in Maine. What about the
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Democrat David Costello who's still in the race. Costello the
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: party's nominee for the state's other US Senate seat back
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four. The Democrats nominated Costello. Apparently he
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: was viable a couple of years ago, and now you're
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: going with Platner. Born and raised in Maine, Costello was
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: all available evidence suggests that he bears no Nazi insignia.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Props to James Freeman for that line. And apparently this
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Costela guy a much better candidate on paper as well,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: at least for the Democrats who are concerned. All of
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: the background he has, and it's all noted on his
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: campaign website. He's got all the liberal check marks going
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: for him. So what's with Platner? Is this perhaps a
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: revelation that the Democrat Party and all of their support
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: for the Muslim community, the anti Israel protest going on
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: in New York City. Zorhan mom Dami, mayor there no
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: friend of the Jewish community, Zorhan mom Dami. He won't
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: even come out and criticize this massive riot they had
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: in front of his synagogue the other day where a
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: lot of anti Semitism was sort of revealed for all
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: to absorb and look at right there in front of
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: your very eyes, all the anti Israel people standing there,
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: all the anti Semitites, semi screaming and yelling about well,
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: Jews moving to Israel. Huh. And I go back to
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: my initial question outset of the program this morning, why
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: are Jewish people backing the Democrats who are sort of
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: if you if you collect all of the headlines and
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: all of the news articles and everything that's been going
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: on over the last several years, showing themselves and revealing
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: themselves to be really, really, really really anti Israel, which
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: I think is distinct from anti Semitism. You cannot agree
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: the Jewish about the Jewish states existence. That is not
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: a commentary on the Jewish people. It's just a comment
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: on the existence of the state, always controversial. The existence
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: of Israel, fine, but this is beyond just the existence
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: of Israel. This is the embracing of Palestinian terrorists, in
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: many cases, the celebration of October seventh, the slaughtering of
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: Jewish elderly people, women and children, innocence. I find it
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: impossible to grasp this is the direction they have gone,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: the Democrats. This is the embracing of what I can
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: only conclude is an undercurrent of anti Semitism. Put that
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: down in the Democratic Party platform. I think that's what
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: you gotta be to run as a Democrat these days.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Five eighteen fifty five k r CD talk station. Maybe
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: you feel differently. If I have any members of the
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Jewish Committee and the listening audience that want to chime
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: in on why they're still Democrats amid all this, please
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: feel free to offer your suggestions. I don't get it.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: We'll be right back after these brief words. Five point
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: two on a Friday, even a happy one to you.
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: Day.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: Listener to lunch yesterday, speaking of my Jewish friends, Doctor J.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: Rissover is going to be handling some of the responsibilities
• 13:40

• 13:43
  Speaker 1: the well, the inventor of and the man behind empower You.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: He also is there. Dan Reganeld was awesome seeing yesterday.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: I know Jay will take care and handle matters for
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: empower You. America dot Org quite well in your absence.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: Will miss having you around town since you're moving out
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: out of the area. But what a blessing empower You
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: has been for the wealth of community at large. So
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: good morning to both of you and everybody else you
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: should have been listening lunch yesterday. Fantastic time. Here you go,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: pivoting over to California, where the care Council on American
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: Islamic Relations is issuing a warning for those out there
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: who are anti Semites keep your mouth shut. What Yeah,
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: there's a video circling on social media showing the California
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Muslim advocacy leader who urging supporters to be in our words,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: strategic about how they express themselves publicly. Zara Bill oh
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: b I l l oo tur last name. I don't know,
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: I probably pronouncing it incorrectly, but whatever, executive director of
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: the California Chapter of the Council on American Islamic Relations,
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: telling supporters, well, you need to watch your p's and
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: q's when you're discussing controversial topics and sentiments in public,
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: ie on social media, cautioning against posting searching views publicly
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: and providing an illustration. She says in this video, Now
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: imagine your LinkedIn profile says I hate all Zionists, not
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: strategic right. You may say that sitting around the Kawa
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: House on a Friday night, but you're not gonna say
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: it on your LinkedIn warning, don't be honest. Certainly you
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: engage in anti semit or you you embrace anti Semitism.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: You hate Jewish people in your real world. But you
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: know what, that's not a politically good a good thing
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: to say out loud. So keep your real opinions to yourself. Now,
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: platnir and Main has a difficult time doing that, given
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: that his body has been well permanently. I know it's
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: been altered and he had it covered up, but the
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: Nazi tattoo is quite revealing. But any event, just keep
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: your keep the keep the real parts. Don't say the
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: quiet part out loud. In other words, this is me.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: It's I suppose it's good advice. If you don't want
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: the world to know you're anti Semitic, it's good advice.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: If you want the care organization supported. You don't want
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: anti semite saying out loud they're anti Semitic. But you
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: certainly want these voices supporting your organization, now, don't you,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: even though your organization may in and of itself be
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: fundamentally anti Semitic. What observer notice The message here isn't done,
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: isn't don't hate people and don't be bigots. The message
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: is we must hide our hatred and bigotry more strategically. Yes,
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: that's exactly what The message is not exactly subtle, is it?
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Five twenty five? Right now? If you five care see
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: de talk station of local stories or phone calls coming up.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: I appreciate the calls if you want to make one
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: either way, I'll be right back fifty five karc. Imagine
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: an olympic Yeah, phone calls take priority over local news.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: But on the heels of my rant opened up the
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: morning show. In terms of anti Semitism being embraced by
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: the Democrats, I imagine this guy's a Democrat Springboro man
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: arrested on Tuesday, Jackson Ryan Mettler. He's only nineteen now
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: facing charge of menacing and ethnic intimidation. Yelled f the Jews.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: That's not an actual quote, you know, to a person
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: over at Amberley Village near the Jewish High School, also
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: yelling free Palestine. Told the individual if I were you,
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: I'd get my ass back inside. Okay, anybody want to
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: guess what his political affiliation is. It isn't reported by
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: Fox nineteen, but you know, I think I can go
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: out on a limb here and just guess Democrat Tom.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Welcome to the Morning Show. Happy Friday Eve, Good morning.
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: And when I call the Snumber and I hear Joe
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: Strucker on the other end answer the phone, it is
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: always a comforting feeling glat he's back to la he's
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: doing better.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: So very yeah.
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you uh, you're just you're just touching on another
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: obvious area of why we we need to make sure
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: we don't vote for Democrats.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: To speculate, and I know it's speculation because I still
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: swirling speculation. Why are so many Jewish people Democrats?
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that one's I well, I'll try to use a
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: big word that one has me be funneled as well.
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: I don't. I don't know, I I really don't. I yeah,
• 18:45
  Speaker 4: for a group of people who has who has historically
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: suffered through a lot of hatred throughout the years. You mean,
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: we can go through history all the way back, and
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: and uh, yeah, why why would you so forward a
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: party who is clearly against you, just like as a platform,
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: as a as a planque in their platform were against Israel,
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: what I mean? And you're okay with that? And and oh,
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: by the way, they also support your direct absolute enemies
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: and you're you're in favor of that? Now, I am?
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: I am completely confused.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, now I will acknowledge. I think I have to
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: interject on that idea about the existence of Israel. I
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: am certain because there are groups out there that are
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Jewish people who do not think the concept of the
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Israeli state is okay. The creation of it in the
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: post World War two reality world, and the idea that
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: it was taken from someone informed from whole cloth, but
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: that overlooks the historical reality that the Jewish people are
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: from the same region as maybe the Palestinians and everything.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: It's been an epic back and forth struggle. It's like,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: are we going to give the United States of America
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: back to the Native Americans because we all settled the
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: United States of America. I don't think that's gonna happen.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, Mexicans gonna claim Texas as their territory,
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: which they have done from time to time. You can't
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: unwring the reality and the evolution of mankind generally speaking,
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: but the hatred of Jewish people and things Jewish, the
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: anti Semitism is kind of baked into the cake, which
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: is different than the existence of Israel. So go ahead
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: back with your thoughts, tom I just wanted to make
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: sure that I was at least keenly aware and people
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: knew that. I understand that some Jews do not appreciate
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: the existence of Israel. So it's beyond that. This is
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: hatred of the Jewish people apparently, which is out and
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: out anti Semitism. You could even call it racism. Go ahead,
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: Tom Well.
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: I personally believe that this all goes back to people's
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: rebellion against God and how he is Israel people are
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: referred to as God's chosen people and all that. If
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: you are so anti anything God, you don't want to
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: hear about God. You don't want to hear anybody talk
• 21:06
  Speaker 4: to you about God. You don't want the idea of
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: there being a God to give you anything like rules
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: or principles to follow. Know, I'm going to do whatever
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: I feel like doing it. Don't you dare try to
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: tell me what to do. I think that's where all
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: this stems. This all comes out of I don't want
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: to have anything to do with God. I hate the
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: idea of God. I mean, think of all the things
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: that the Democrat Party is in favor of, and you
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: could just start with abortion. We're going to promote the
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: murder of innocent babies. I mean, just just that one
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: issue right there tells me the only thing that the
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: Democrat Party really wants you to be able to have
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: a choice to do is to kill babies. Everything else,
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: there's no choice. You have to do it this way,
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: you have to think this way. This is the makeup
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: of a major political party, and the people that continue
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: to vote for them are stupid. Period. They're stupid. I'm
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: gonna I told you, I'm gonna keep hammering that word.
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: They're stupid. If you vote for a Democrat, you're stupid.
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: If you don't want people to think you're stupid, don't
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: vote Democrat.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: Have a great day, Brian, do the same, Tom. I
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: just wish Tom would stop pulling his punches when it
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: comes to things like that. Feel free to chime in,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: maybe you feel differently five one, three, seven, four nine
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: fifty five hundred. But maybe he's got a point there. Marxism, Marxism, God,
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: God is above the state. Marxists hate the concept of
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: God and religion, generally speaking, the opiate of the masses.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: So is religion. You know, It's like Jesus Christ, his
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: dad was something that was above and uh, the Roman Empire, right,
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: you don't. You don't answer to the government, You answer
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: to God. That's sort of a liberating concept, isn't it.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: Marxist hate God. The state, of course, is where all
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: of your liberties and freedoms come from. It's all a
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: gift from the state. Five forty if any five KRC
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: detoxation before I get to the phones, real quick, here, gribbage, Mike,
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: thanks for showing up yesterday, listener, lunch. I won. I
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: beat him by a point. I think it was one point. Anyway.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: He just sent me a text he was happy that
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: I won. He gave me congratulations, but we also pointed
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: out we got the Submarine memorial showing up at Voa Park,
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: and he suggested that Congressman Warren Davidson has to be
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: really proud of this beautiful memorial they have. You got
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: to get out the Voa and check that one out,
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: and we'll have Mike back on to talk about the
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: grand opening of that one. It happens. Good morning, my friend,
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: Submarine or Mike. Let's go to the phone. See what
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: Jay's got this morning. Jay, Happy Friday E. Thanks for calling.
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: This am I on the air.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: You are That's why I said Happy Friday Eve. Thanks
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: for calling.
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: But you said Jay. Yeah, I thought you said.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: Jay, but I did argue Jay.
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: That's what still I'm still trying to wake up here.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: What's your name? Is is it Jay? Because that's what's
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: on the call stream board. Okay, yeah, yes, sir, Yeah,
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: I thought right. Good to hear from you anyway.
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: Good to hear, good to talk to you. Happy Friday Eve.
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: I've been a listener for twenty years and I agree
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: with you ninety nine point nine percent of the time.
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: But you've got to disagree about Thomas Massey. And I
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: was listening to Steve yesterday from Independence, and he sounds
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: like a really good guy, and you know, I was
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: kind of disappointed that he said he and his wife
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: have decided to vote for Massey, because I know he
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: was on the fence, and you know, I just you know,
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: if anybody who wants to vote for Massy, I mean,
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: go ahead, but I mean if you're you're voting for
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: somebody who's going to pose Donald Trump, and if that's
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: what you want, I mean, go ahead and vote for him.
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: But I've been a Republican all my life and I've
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: always voted for Massy. But he's just gone too far.
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: He's I don't know what happened to.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: The guy, but well, in what way has he gone
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: too far?
• 25:12
  Speaker 5: Now?
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: If you're listening to political ads, it makes it sound
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: like Thomas Massey is one hundred percent anti Magnam.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: No, I'm with you.
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: I can't wait till election days, all these political ads over.
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: I don't believe any of it. Good for you, Correct
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: me if I'm wrong, Correct me if I'm wrong. Wasn't
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: he the only Republican that voted against a big, beautiful bill?
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: I do believe, But you know the context for that.
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: Usually with everything is contexture. With Massy, is it within
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: the confines of the Constitution. He is one hundred percent
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: backing of the Constitution and his very conservative view of
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: the Constitution. He also is the only I think, the
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: only remaining and this is no insulting Congressman Warren Davidson,
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: who also I think is a deficit hawk. Listen, if
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: you're going to blow the budget up, and the one
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: big beautiful bill I think does have a Congressional Budget
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: Office score of increasing the federal deficit, then he's going
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: to be against it. We have a massive spending problem
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: on our hands. Our interest payment on the credit card
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: bill is a trillion dollars a year and within ten
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: years it's set to double. We are borrowing money to
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: pay the interest payment. That's that's the antithesis of everything. Massy.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: He's the old I love having him there because he
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: forces the rest of the Republicans to have to reckon
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: with the reality that they're all a bunch of crazy
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: spend money like a drunken sale of getting ready to
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: go to his final grave. People. We got to end this.
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: I agree with you, well, I agree with that, but
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: I meant. But it's a shape the country's in right now.
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: I mean, I see you can't. You can't just you
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: can't get what you want.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: I understand that. But Jay, it has been thus it
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: has ever been fill in the bank. The state the
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: country's in right now justifies fill in the bank, something
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: that's antithesis to the Constitution. Oh my god, we've got
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: a problem here with with an evil foreign country. It
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: is the situation right now which will allows us to
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: ignore the declaration of war and the fact that all
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: that exists in the power. Let's just give it to
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: the president whatever any topic, the circumstances now justify, which
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: leads us to the point we are now, which is
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: forty trillion dollars in the whole and growing with no
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: end in sight, because well, the circumstances now allow for
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: it or justify it. I'm sorry, I can't abide by
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: that anymore. At least Congress from Massy's the one person
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: saying we're going basically, we're spending ourselves into an absolute
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: destruction of our country. That's what we're facing. Runaway inflation,
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: the dollar won't be worth anything. All of that. It's
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: the only the real existential threat that we have done
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: to ourselves that somebody, some party, I would argue, should
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: be in a position to counter. We've got to curb
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: our spending. No one does that, accept Massy. Yeah, well
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: that's why I'm in favor of that.
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, he's against Iran. I mean, if you know,
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: I mean, is the okay with you?
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: No, he's not against there. He is not a fan
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: of Iran. Going back to the Constitution and even the
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: War Powers Resolution, you're supposed to have some congressional involvement
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: when it comes to waging war. That's what the law says.
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: You can't argue around that. But no one has paid
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: attention to the law since since after World War Two.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: It's that that's right, right, So okay, Master's at least
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: say it. Wait a second, The president doesn't have this authority.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: It's ours, it's the peoples. It's your mind, Jay, as
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: the will is expressed by our elected officials, not the president.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: If Barack Obama was president right now, or Kamala Harris,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: god forbid, and she started waging war without your Jay
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: involvement via your representative, wouldn't you have maybe a different
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: viewpoint of it. Not whether the war is justified in
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: some way because the Iranians are a bunch of crazy,
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: crazy Muslim fundamentalists that want to kill the Jews and
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: blow up Israel and even the United States. Yes, that's
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: all demonstrably true. But wouldn't you want to say, wait
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: a sec Kamala Harris, you do not have the right
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: to start dropping bombs unless we approve it. That's all
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: Congressman Massey is advocating for. That's it. It's the broader point,
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: the fact that the law says something that we are
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: allowing the president to ignore any president. So that's I'll
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: defend him all day long.
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: This well, I know, I know you're gonna I know
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: you're gonna send him, and I mean we'll just you know,
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: we'll have to, you know, like I said, and I
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: could do and I agree, but this is one time
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: we're going to have to disagree.
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: Yay. I like the for sentage. Man, I don't expect
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: anyone to agree.
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: And you know, I think Trump was and I think
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: Trump I kind of thought he was, you know, a
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: fool when he said, you know, uh, Nancy was a
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: grand standard. But I think he's onto something because I think,
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: you know, something happened to Thomas Massey. I mean even
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: having Gordon thinks.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: So, I mean, well and you think so, and.
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: What he has to do, whatever he has to do,
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: whatever he has to do to get attention. I mean
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: he you know, he stands on the front steps of
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: the Capitol with his buddy Rocanna.
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: And he's oh, Jay, wait a second, they're politicians, you
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: know what I'm if you call it grand standing, at
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: least they're giving him a vehicle. The media actually will
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: report on it. Why because he's the one, he's the outlier,
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: and his message comes out and if you hear what
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: he has to say, he'll articulate it far better than
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: I just did on his behalf. Why he's the one
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: being the quote unquote grandstander. He's making a point to
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: the American public. Wait a second, I said no, because
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: we're going to kill ourselves spending all this. I'm glad
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: he gets the microphone. As a matter of fact, it
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: surprises me that they even give him any media time
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: at all because of that message. But somebody's at least
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: providing the message, and it's him, So you call it
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: grand standing, I call it providing a vital service to
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: the American public, an actual debate interjection of something that
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: we all need to be painfully aware of is that
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: we're spending ourselves into oblivion. Jay, I thank you so
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: much for calling, and I know I understand where you're
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: coming from, but I'm sorry. I worry about the future
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: of this country. You know, long after I'm gone. I
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: don't think we're going to make it another two hundred
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: and fifty years on the trajectory we are on. And
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: I think that's what Massy's ultimate position is. Anybody else
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: feel free to call in chime in. Jay, Thanks again,
• 31:22

  Speaker 1: He said, listen, there's no way I'm going to vote

• 32:17
  Speaker 1: so no vote from Joe Stracker. Linda, thanks for calling
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: this morning, and Happy Friday, Eve.
• 32:22
  Speaker 6: Oh same to you. This goes back to your program.
• 32:26
  Speaker 6: Yesterday I was listening to somebody who was supporting Massey
• 32:31
  Speaker 6: and he brought up the Tea Party. And I was
• 32:35
  Speaker 6: going to vote for gol Ray because I thought, Okay,
• 32:39
  Speaker 6: you've been in there fourteen years. That's long enough. We
• 32:42
  Speaker 6: need to have term limitations. And then I started thinking
• 32:48
  Speaker 6: about why did I get involved with the Tea Party.
• 32:51
  Speaker 6: I went to Washington. I was down at Fountain Square
• 32:55
  Speaker 6: when it all began, and I carried forth for five
• 32:59
  Speaker 6: or six years here in Kentucky. Why did I do that?
• 33:03
  Speaker 6: And it was because government was too out of control.
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 33:08
  Speaker 6: They were taking excuse me, it's morning.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: It's okay, I get it.
• 33:13
  Speaker 6: They were taking over our healthcare now, which we should
• 33:17
  Speaker 6: not let them do. And Massey I voted for because
• 33:23
  Speaker 6: he believed in the Constitution and because he believed in
• 33:27
  Speaker 6: stopping the spending. And I really got a little perturbed
• 33:32
  Speaker 6: with myself. I thought, how easily I was swayed to
• 33:36
  Speaker 6: do something else. And I am voting for Massey because
• 33:41
  Speaker 6: he has the country at art.
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 33:46
  Speaker 6: Lead doesn't have his back pocket. He's not worried about
• 33:50
  Speaker 6: what President Trump is going to say about him. He
• 33:54
  Speaker 6: is standing on a principle that we all should be
• 33:56
  Speaker 6: standing on. And I just I can't believe that I
• 34:03
  Speaker 6: was so enamored with the fact that we haven't got
• 34:07
  Speaker 6: to have termal limitations that I was willing to let
• 34:14
  Speaker 6: go of the one person that I think I should
• 34:18
  Speaker 6: be voting for.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Linda, you have just boiled it all down.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: What a wonderful, wonderful call. I can't thank you enough.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: And you started your explanation off. I started thinking, and
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: you did an excellent analysis in your thought process. I
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: don't necessarily embrace the concept of term limits because you
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: know what, there are some great people that you want
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: to remain in the post because they do exactly what
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: you said Congress Massey is doing, representing his constituents, not
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: acting out of political expedience, not acting out of something
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: that Donald Trump screamed in his ear that he demands
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: Thomas Massey do. That's one of his commercials, says, I
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: don't answer to the President. I don't answer to the
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: Speaker of the House. I answer to my constituents. We
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: need more politicians like that, and we don't need to
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: vote them out office just because they've been around along
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: or because they happen to vote contrary to one president's
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: personal vested interest. Someone who puts the Constitution and our
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: bottom line ahead of whatever happens to be the expedient
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: issue that's presented in front of him. Today five point
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: fifty seven got a couple more calls online if you
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: guys want to hold on for a second. Tom new
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: Hampshire Garrett, I want to take your calls, but I
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: got to take a break the talk station. I heard
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: Radio six five and fifty five KRCD Talk Station Friday.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: Even a happy one. Why it's happy if for no
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: other reason than Joe Strecker is back where he belongs.
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: And thank you to every one of the listening audience
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: who expressed concerns and offered prayers for Joe Strekker's health.
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: He is okay, got a clean bill of health from
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: the doctors yesterday, which is great. Still pray for Joe Strecker,
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: of course, losing his father and dealing with the aftermath
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: of that. No one can understate the sorrow and the
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: emotional reality and baggage that goes along with that. So
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: thank you Joe Strecker for being where you are and
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: for producing the fifty five care See morning show. Brother,
• 36:14

  Speaker 1: hold Jeff hold on. Welcome back New Hampshire, Gary.
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: Good morning. How are you doing, brother?
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: Doing fine? Joey also.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: Well, so long as we say a prayer for Joe,
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: we're also saying a prayer for you.
• 37:03
  Speaker 5: You're going to have a tough.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: It's it's chemo day, brother, it's today and tomorrow. Yay,
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: let's get all rout up for chemotherapy and then I'll
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: be out on Monday and Tuesday. So thank you give
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: me that opportunity to remind folks that Dan Carroll will
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: be covering for me on Monday Tuesday.
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, And I was listening earlier, Tom was dead on
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: it's a rebellion of towards God. But it's also and
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: you're curious, I've actually been to Israel. Yeah, and a
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: sixty percent of everybody is secular over in Israel, and
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: then they have a strong minority that are either they're
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: Orthodox all the way down to reform. So they've got
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: ends of the spectrum, just like you do in Christianity. Sure,
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: and like I'm I'm an evangelical, you know of you know,
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: old school Baptist. But we have snake candling fathums they know,
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: you know, we agree with you know, and I forget
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: who study. But there was a famous radio talk podcaster
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: twenty years ago who said, most Jews look at it
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: this way. It's their liberalism trumps their Judaism. And that's
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: why that that's why that they mostly I mean, you
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: go to the Israel, it's really liberal in a lot
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: of sense, you know. That's why they don't have the
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: First Amendment. They don't. Although they're they're they're better than
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: anybody else in the Middle East, but they don't have
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: guns to their civilian populace as a whole. They they
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: they're a little bit better now, but it's still really
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: hard for even Jews to get their own people to
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: get armed up, you know, on a civilian means go ahead.
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: Liberalism in the sense of they support sort of wealth
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: redistribution kind of thing. Yeah, okay, but I struggle with
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: that because they are such a very close knit type community.
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: Who they go. They've been their backwards to help their
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: own and I don't find any offense with that. They
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: embrace the idea of helping other you know, younger Jewish
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: people succeed in business, they'll support their interests, they'll work
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: toward them. It's the Jewish community helping the Jewish community.
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: That is, not the Jewish community offloading all of their
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: resource to a government and then the government is left
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: to hand out and support any given human being or
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: the community. No, they are focused on helping themselves, and
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: I think that is an appropriate things. There's nothing wrong
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: with that, but it seems to be the antithesis of
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: sort of the wealthy distribution, big government handling all the
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: problems of the world kind of thing. They don't live
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: their lives that way. They focus on what is in
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: their best interest.
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: Well, they're split on that, a lot of them are,
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: you know, they you know, they're in the kabbutt still
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: and they believe in sell It's kind of like a
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: cellular you know, will do okay. Inside our community. They
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: want nothing to do with the government. And then there's
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: others who want big wealth distribution and they kind of
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: find their own happy medium in that.
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: Okay, well, I guess the takeaway you Hampshire Gary on
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: this one is like every community that can be put
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: under any particular label, they vary in their opinions, right
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: like if you say your Republic, if you say you're
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: a Christian, well which one like you? To your early part, Well,
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: I'm a snake handler Christian. Well no I'm not. I'm
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: a Catholic Christian. Okay, fine, I'll acknowledge that. But if
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: you pull the Jewish community, you will find the majority
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: in all cases, over and over and over again are Democrats,
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: which I think kind of flies in the face of
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: the you know, maybe the Orthodox community taking them with
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: the mindset that I a moment ago had about them
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: helping theirselves, which is again flies in the face of
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: this liberal mentality.
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, just like we have over here Jews
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: for Palestine or Queers for Pellas, they have Jews for Pelstine.
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: We do we do.
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: There are Jews for Jesus too, my Jewish I asked
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: about that one time, what about Jews for Jesus. He said,
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: you mean Christians.
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: Well, they actually do have Jews for Jesus. That's uh, well,
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: they call him Meta. There's a name.
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I wouldn't know. I just know there's an organization
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: out there, at least it used to be called Jews
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: for Jesus. So okay. There that we live in a
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: confusing world. Gary again, moving back from the the the
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: you know, the parsing out of individual types of individuals
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: under any given umbrella. You know, there's a big range
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: in there. I just am still puzzling, puzzling over this
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: embracing of what seems to me an anti Semitic. Well,
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: maybe it's a platform for the Democratic Party. That's what's
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: I that's what I see emerging here, a platform position.
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: Yet maybe you don't put it down as being anti
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: Israel or anti Jewish or simply pro Palestine, which many
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: Democrats will say out loud that they are. But that's
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: what's emerging. I look at New York with Mom Damia,
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: look at the riots and the and the and the
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: lack and these, I mean, the silence is deafening from
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: the left on these anti are the these protests that
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: show up outside of synagogues for example, or the from
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: the River to the Sea. The eradication of Israel. I mean,
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: isn't that something that we should condemn conceptually because it
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: means the literal eradication of humanity in the in the
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: process silence deafening, which means suggest support for that ideology.
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: And it seems to becoming exclusively or at least not
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: really primarily from the Democrats and the left.
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they are stiff necked people. According to the Bible,
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: like I think Tom really had it is, this is
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: mostly a rebellion against God.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: It perhaps is may be right, And I saw an
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: article in New Hampshire to that point. All of the
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: Christian churches, like in Canada there's there like one hundred
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: and fifty of them have been burned to the ground.
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: What really, Hm, that's not just black churches in the South.
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: If you look back at history, you got to go
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: back a little bit farther for that one. But it's
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: currently going on all over the globe, this hatred toward Christianity,
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: no question about it. Gary, thank you so much for
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: the call. Let's pivot over to Jeff. Jeff, thanks for
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: holding onto during the discussion there and welcome to the
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: Morning show. Appreciate you calling in.
• 43:28
  Speaker 7: Hey, good morning Brian, Happy Friday, Age and to you
• 43:31
  Speaker 7: and prayers for your chemo.
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: Thanks man, I appreciate it.
• 43:36
  Speaker 7: Yes, Sir, as I told Joe, I was wondering if
• 43:42
  Speaker 7: the gal with the sword at the city council meeting.
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: Bailed out the gal with the sword of the city
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: council meeting. Am I missing something?
• 43:55
  Speaker 7: She tried to sneak a sword into the Cincinnati City
• 43:58
  Speaker 7: Council meeting. They tackled her to the ground, they arrested
• 44:04
  Speaker 7: and oh oh oh.
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: Joe just just pointed out reminded me that story isn't
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: my Stack as Stupid. But I didn't read it. I
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: haven't right, I have it in front.
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mentioned it to Joe. I said, I wonder
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: if that's going to make your Stack of Stupid list today?
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: It is, you know what, I will take your call
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: as an opportunity to dive on into that since I
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: didn't do any Stack of Stupid stories this morning, Jeff,
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: because of course, phone calls take preference. I'm staring at
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: it right now. You're talking about Alexandria Dalton aka Big Owls.
• 44:38
  Speaker 7: As bill ing Bello always said, can't fix stupid.
• 44:42
  Speaker 5: Here's your sign.
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: Thank you Jeff Franks for bringing that one to my attention.
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: I appreciate it very much. You have a wonderful day,
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: my friends.
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: Sorry for mistening listener lunch yesterday's lake.
• 44:54

• 44:56
  Speaker 1: Anderson Pub and Girl in June and a lot. We're
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: jumping all over the place between now and the end
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: of the year, and I think for those folks looking
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: forward to the final listener lunch before the election in November,
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: I've suggested the Debbie who lines these up, we need
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: to go back to Jim and Jacks, which is ultimately
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: the greatest spot to go before the election. But I'll
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: give you the full rundown. We get all the places
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: lined up, but right now it's Anderson Pub and Grill
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: the first Wednesday in June. Thanks for the call. Brothers sick.
• 45:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 45:22
  Speaker 7: I think the last time I was I was there
• 45:25
  Speaker 7: it was over at Ron's for his roost on Race Rit.
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: I love that spot. That's become my mom and my
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: favorite spot for lunches. Good morning.
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: I grew up on I grew up on the West Side,
• 45:36
  Speaker 3: West side best side.
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: Yes, thank you for and that's also where the biggest
• 45:39

• 46:20
  Speaker 1: Owl story, Jamie, thanks for calling this morning, Happy Friday Eve.
• 46:24
  Speaker 8: Thanks Brian, good morning. I love the conversation around Thomas
• 46:28
  Speaker 8: Massey and I was just thinking, you know, it's not
• 46:31
  Speaker 8: about finding one or two favorite politicians. It's really about
• 46:34
  Speaker 8: the people understanding the bigger picture and the founding Fathers
• 46:39
  Speaker 8: meant for us to be paying attention to that and
• 46:42
  Speaker 8: speaking out, running for local government, and being responsible for
• 46:46
  Speaker 8: the freedom that we get. I just wanted to throw
• 46:49
  Speaker 8: out a book. Doctrine of the Lesser Magistrate changed mine
• 46:53
  Speaker 8: and my husband's life around COVID. It's a short, easy read,
• 46:58
  Speaker 8: and it talks about, well, you know, how the local
• 47:02
  Speaker 8: governments can stand in the constitution and protect the people
• 47:06
  Speaker 8: from higher level mandates such is what the governor Dwine did.
• 47:12
  Speaker 8: And in reality, local governments can protect the people from
• 47:16
  Speaker 8: the bigger entities who are crossing the line. And the
• 47:19
  Speaker 8: people need to understand that and get involved in you know,
• 47:22
  Speaker 8: wherever they live, central committee, townships, county commissioners, there's a
• 47:27
  Speaker 8: lot of powerful positions where they can protect the people
• 47:32
  Speaker 8: from all of this pyranny. Basically, I agree with you.
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: You know, local is where it all happens. Local, local, local.
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: But Joe Strecker just interjected, you gotta remember you got
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: to throw any actin in there. So yes, Dwine and
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: acting working in concert to shut down basically our entire lives.
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: Keep that in mind when you go to the polls
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: in November, right, Jamie. Yeah, absolutely, thanks for the call.
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: I appreciate hearing from you. Back over to a story
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: that made of the status. It could also be a
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: local story and thanks a prior caller for bringing this
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: to my attention. Yes, yesterday's council meeting was interrupted because
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: Big Awl brought a sword that was hidden insign a
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: cane into the city council meeting into City Hall. Mayor
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: Aftab Purval did confirm this Fox nineteen reporting snuck it
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: into council chambers. Alexandria Dalton I guess refers to herself
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: as Big Owl. At least that's the way Fox nineteen reporting.
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: Apparently she's known to since a city council she has
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: been there right a few times during public comment periods,
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: and advocates a lot for apparently Piot Park. Anyway, Yesterday,
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: she told city council that her recent issues with several
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: Cincinni police officers alleging sexual and physical assault and police misconduct.
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: Quote from big Al, I am scared of what the
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: police will do to me in this city. They are
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: the biggest gang m Someone wrote, isn't this an unrealistic fear?
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: Next to that quote, Oh, that would have been me.
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: She also said one of the officers at city Hall
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: took her cane, but didn't say why. I think we
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: can all figure that one out anyway. They took her
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: out in handcuffs, She said while she was being arrested,
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: I guess, can someone tell me why I'm being arrested?
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: Can someone please tell me? Please? Don't let them take me.
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: I didn't do anything wrong. What are my charges? What
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: are my charges? I have a right to know what
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: my charges are. Stop. While she was being arrested, again,
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: this is what they do to citizens who speak out.
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: I guess it's what they do to citizens to bring
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: a weapon into city council meetings. Some would argue that, well,
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: why can't you have a weapon in city council meetings?
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: We have a second amended right to keeping bare arms. Yeah,
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: I know, but there are areas where those that does
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: not apply. Argue amongst yourself on whether you want to
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: defend this woman or not. But as of right now,
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: you can't bring a weapon into city council chambers, which
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: is why she got arrested. Courted the police she was
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: able to and I'm reading mislead security. She claimed the
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: cane was for disability purposes. So she's facing four charges
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: now resisting arrest, inducing panic care, and concealed weapons, interrupting
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: a lawful meeting. And they say the investigation is ongoing.
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: There you have it. That's why it's in the stack.
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: Is stupid local stories coming up or your phone calls
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: whatever be the talk station six thirty actually fifty five
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: KERCD talk station got local stories here, take phone calls
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: if you want to make them. Five one three seven
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: fifty eight hundred eight two three talk Joe Strekker filmed
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: me on an additional details about big Al, the sword
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: wielding woman who interrupted Cincinni City council meeting the other
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: day and was arrested as a consequence of bring a
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: sword in. Apparently she's got an Instagram page, and prior
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: to the meeting, when she got arrested for hiding bringing
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: the hidden sword in a cane into the meeting, she
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: bragged on Instagram that she was gonna do it. Joe
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: said she's got a video on there wielding the sword.
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: She actually unsheathed it and said she was taking it
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: to city council meeting. Joe also said she is a
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: self professed communist. She self labeled Joe right. I mean
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: she pas that on her site, Yeah yeah, which Joe
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: astutely observed suggests that she probably voted for the entire
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: makeup of Cincinnati City Council. Strange world we live in.
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: Police strategies. Yesterday, Interim Police Chief Adam Henny rolled out
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: Cincinni Police Department Summer Safety strategy, which has four pillars Visibility, Technology, investigations,
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: and collaboration, which accorded reporting from WCPO, that's identical to
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: last year's are nearly identical to last year's summer safety plan.
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: How that work out? Well? Well, I guess we're going
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: to find out this year in the second round of it,
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: Heny said summer activities, police strategies expanding summer expanding this
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: summer in hopes of curbing crime hops being the operative
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: word there. I believe to ensure that we provide the
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: best services we can throughout the summer. Anyway, CPD expanding
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: its bicycle unit to sixteen officers. They say the bikes
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: will focus on over the Ryan in the Central Business District.
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: Isn't that where all the focus is? Some neighborhoods get
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: overlooked by this current council, don't they? And prior councils.
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: I suppose what else is going on? More walking patrols,
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: Henny said, Compared to last year, the number of walking
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: patrols has increased, at least in April more than four
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: hundred and forty percent. But they know he didn't provide
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: an actual figure. He said, this is this unit is
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: obviously very mobile. We're able to utilize them in different ways,
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: different neghborods throughout the city. We're able to deploy them
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: very quickly. This is not if it sounds like I'm
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: being critical of this, this is not. I'm certain Interim
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: Chief Henny's ideas. Maybe he's got different ones if he
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: was let go and was allowed to assign police officers
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: and police crime the way he would like to do.
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: I am certain this is a director from Iris Rolli,
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: which means probably was a director and not I meant
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: City Manager Shara Long, a director from City Manager Shara Long,
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: which meant it's a director from IRUs Rowley. Anyway, technology,
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: they got drones, of course all over the place now,
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: and of course the curfew, which is funny if you
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: go to Signal ninety nine, which I regularly suggest people
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: follow her on Facebook. City of Cincinnati Youth Curfew ordnance,
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: big Cincinnati Police Department patch logo on top of it
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: with four bullet points, And I gotta imagine this came
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: from the City of Cincinnati or the police Department. So
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: let's read through it together, Shaomi. It is a violation
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: of curfew for unaccompanied miners that will be children under
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: the age of eighteen to be in a public place
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: between the hours of eleven PM and five am. It
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: is a violation bullet point number two. Public place refers
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: to anywhere which the public or a substantial group of
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: the public has access. That's a pretty large swath of
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: downtown Cincinnati, is it not. Any miner found violating this
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: curfew operative word may be found guilty of committing a
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: curfew violation. May a lot of folks focusing on that
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: may word, which suggests perhaps that they may not be
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: enforcing it very strictly in terms of issuing citations. More
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: on that in the moment. Oh and I've glossed over.
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: I think this flyer this was just that was distributed
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: and signal ninety nine has posted up came from the
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: Minneapolis Leering Center because substantial is misspelled. Substantial is the
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: word that's in the in the release anyway, moving over
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: that comedy, so may if a miner is found violating
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: the curfew, they may but probably won't, be found guilty
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: of committing a curfew violation. And finally, any parent, guardian,
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: or other adult having the care, custody or supervision of
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: a miner who violates this curfew here's that word again,
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: may be found guilty of a minor at misdemeanor. Now,
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: I did hear Henny in the PLAS conference yesterday suggests that,
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: you know, it is not our I goal to issue citations.
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: We do not want to issue citations. And it was
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: funny because he said, you know, we don't want to
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: issue a ticket to a miner who maybe got stuck
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: in an event, is just trying to get home. Our
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: goal is to get them home safely. Well, that sounds
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: laudable and admirable. But if the youths that you're just
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: simply trying to escort home and not issue a citation,
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: are out running amuck and doing violent street takeovers and
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: scaring the living crap out of humanity doing what they're doing,
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: then I think you should probably have them issue of citation.
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: Maybe that would curb that kind of thing from happening.
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: Isn't law enforcement supposed to be a deterrence to crime.
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: Aren't the people who get citations supposed to be the
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: poster child and the cautionary tale for the others who
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: might engage in similar behavior. Yes, I know the answer
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: to these questions are all yes. That's why they're rhetorical.
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: Where's that philosophy coming from downtown Cincinnati, he asked. Dick
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: is on the phone. That would be Dick from Tennessee.
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: I will take your call there if you don't mind
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: hold for a moment. It's hard to see the talk
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: station six forty here. I fIF you about KRCITY talk station.
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: After the top of the our new is Congressman Warren
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: that Davidson would get the latest on the situation with Ron.
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: The primary is over, he says, the real work needs
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: to start now. We've got to get eybody up and
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: voting in November, without question, without question, voter turnout is
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: going to be critical to the November election. Sorry, I'm
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: going to be repetitive on that point from now until November. Dick.
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: Welcome to the program. Thanks for holding with the break, Dick.
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: It's good to hear from you from Tennessee.
• 56:18
  Speaker 9: Huh yeah, I'm glad he's back. Glad he's healthy.
• 56:24
  Speaker 5: But you need to be a good patient and we
• 56:28
  Speaker 5: wish you the best.
• 56:29
  Speaker 9: Thank you very Having said that, I want to say
• 56:32
  Speaker 9: that I worked as a poll worker in Hamilton County
• 56:35
  Speaker 9: for ten fifteen years.
• 56:36
  Speaker 10: I don't even remember how long, but it was during.
• 56:39
  Speaker 9: The transition as we went from the paper signature books
• 56:42
  Speaker 9: to now what they have the E pold books, which
• 56:45
  Speaker 9: is kind of useful. It's kind of fast. Checking process
• 56:48
  Speaker 9: is much easier. But one of the issues that I
• 56:51
  Speaker 9: always had was after you did your registration, they would
• 56:54
  Speaker 9: pick up the ballot and they would put the bar
• 56:57
  Speaker 9: code and scan it. It would be part of your registration,
• 57:00
  Speaker 9: so that very act right there tied whatever ballot you
• 57:04
  Speaker 9: marked and was subsequently scanned to the fact that you
• 57:08
  Speaker 9: had registered at that time. So the concept of a
• 57:13
  Speaker 9: secret ballot was always in my mind a little bit suspect.
• 57:17
  Speaker 9: So having now moved down to Tennessee, we just now
• 57:22
  Speaker 9: use e poll books. But unlike the ones in Ohio,
• 57:25
  Speaker 9: there is no AT and TU wireless network here. The
• 57:29
  Speaker 9: poll book stands alone. It was loaded preloaded with the
• 57:33
  Speaker 9: precinct participants and the people that are registered, and it's
• 57:37
  Speaker 9: up to date. And I know that because I had
• 57:40
  Speaker 9: to vote early because I was working, and so I
• 57:43
  Speaker 9: checked and when I checked, it said I had voted early,
• 57:48
  Speaker 9: So that was only five days ago, so it's up
• 57:51
  Speaker 9: to date. The last thing is, as I registered and
• 57:56
  Speaker 9: I went back to place my vote, there is no connection,
• 58:01
  Speaker 9: no input, no piece of paper that is inputed into
• 58:05
  Speaker 9: the voting device. It draws a connection between my voter
• 58:12
  Speaker 9: ID and how I voted.
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: It doesn't go out into the ether. Is basically what
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: you're saying, Dick, right.
• 58:20
  Speaker 9: There is no connection to my registration event and how
• 58:24
  Speaker 9: I voted.
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: So if I can put it in tech Friday Day
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: of Hatter terms, it's not an Internet of Things device,
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: then hell no, there you can see I like that. Well, no,
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: I bring that out because you have to have a
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: whole lot of faith. If it is connected to the internet,
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: what's being communicated back and forth. No one should know
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: who we voted for, how we voted for. But it
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: raises suspicions that someone is keeping tabs on that because
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: well you're scanning comment. It goes out into the world somehow,
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: some way, it's connected to some broader network out there,
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: so you really don't quite know. So that it requires
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: a level of faith. It's like a leap of faith,
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: and quite a few of us don't have that and
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: can't relate. So disconnect it, I guess, is your advice, Dick,
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: because that's what they do in Tennessee.
• 59:12
  Speaker 9: Yeah, they're completely disconnected, as were the old paper ballots.
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: Yes, they were to use. Yeah, in the days before
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: the Internet, there was no need to cook things up
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: to the Internet, and yet we were able to make
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: it as a country now two hundred and fifty years
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: this year without that, Dick. It's amazing.
• 59:26
  Speaker 9: And so France still uses paper ballots and they can
• 59:29
  Speaker 9: turn around their election results that evening as well. So
• 59:34
  Speaker 9: there's a boatload of people, including the Election Assistance Commission
• 59:37
  Speaker 9: at the federal government level. It all has their hands
• 59:41
  Speaker 9: in making us slaves to this stuff. And what it
• 59:44
  Speaker 9: requires is public participation and knowledge in this process.
• 59:50
  Speaker 3: That's what's important.
• 59:51
  Speaker 9: And it also boils down to the other conversation about
• 59:55
  Speaker 9: Thomas Massey. I listen to those advertisements on your radio
• 59:59
  Speaker 9: station all day long.
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 4: I've met Thomas.
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 5: I know Thomas.
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 9: Bottom line is he is a good man, knows the Constitution,
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 9: and the fact that he had to get into that
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 9: deal with ro Connor on the Epstein files and the
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 9: law just illustrates once again there are parts of the
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 9: executive branch that ignore what Congress does and says. Thomas
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 9: Massey understands that a lot of people don't.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: Correct good points, Dick, And for those want to get
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: a little bit more enlightenment on the conversation about Congress
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 1: and Massey, check out the five o'clock hour. We had
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: a lot of calls on that some people like Gallering
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: for whatever reason. Joe pointed out, well, Gallery won't even
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: debate anyone. He won't come on the morning show and
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: talk about it. More fundamentally, the one person that always
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: and regularly stands up and does support out loud the
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: Constitution and the need for fiscal responsibilities. Sometimes he's the
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: only one. Congressman Massy, we need that voice out there.
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: I think the reason he's so hated by so many
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: folks they're elected is because he's calling them out for
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: what they are. You know, wait a second, it's like
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: hold on, no, no, no, we are already forty trillion
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: dollars in debt, we're on a trajectory for fifty or
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: sixty or seventy. No, your bill, whatever is in it,
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: raises the debt higher and higher, So I can't abide.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: You've got to if you want me to vote for
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 1: that cut spending elsewhere to pay for it. It's a
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: great point. He's the only one advocating for that. That's
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: why we're riding the train wreck to hell right now
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: with our national debt. No one of any political subscribe
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: has the will, the backbone, with the exception of commerce
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: from Massing and maybe Senator Ran Paul to speak to
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: this issue regularly. It's uncomfortable for a president who wants
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: to ramp up the debt in very large ways. You know,
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: I can be critical of Trump along those lines. You
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: know he is not a fiscal hawk at all. Look
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 1: at his first term and how much money we spent.
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: Look at this current term and the trajectory we're on
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: right now. No one except Massing and maybe Senator Paul
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: care about it. It's the one thing that will certainly
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: kill our country like it has so much more. Keep
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: running that printing press. Dick from Tennessee, thank you for
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: the call this morning, six forty six I fifty five
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: kersee talk station cover since he do a show with
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: a genre six fifty one IF fifty five kr cite
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: talk station right eight eve Congressman Morton Davison at the
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: top of the Aaron is I think he's a deficit hawk.
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: Congressrom Davidson probably listen to right now. I don't mean
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 1: to overlook you, at least in so far as my
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: praise of Congress from Massey for being a deficit hawk.
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 1: And I just wish we had more of them standing
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: up and out loud, refusing to vote for things that
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 1: ramp up our deficit. It's it's tough, so you've got
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: to be that guy. Got to be that person. Pay
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 1: to go over to California where they're all vying to
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: be the next governor in California. This is crazy. One
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: of them made a mistake and said the quiet part
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 1: out loud. It's not even the quiet part. I think
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 1: anybody who pays attention to the population California knows they're
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: hemorrhaging citizen. They leave and go elsewhere where the climate
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: is better across the board for many reason. So we
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: have Katie Porter candidate. Well, these California referring to the
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 1: sanctuary state policy, which California is. The sanctuary state policy
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: is designed to make sure that our state resources the
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: tax payer dollars, the public servants that we have are
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 1: focusing on doing their jobs, which is not cooperating with
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: the federal immigration authorities. And here it comes. These are
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: Californians referring to the immigrant population. They contribute to our
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 1: economy broad brush. There not all of them do. Of course,
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: they pay taxes. Well, yeah, and there's that too, not
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: all of them do. But then you can say the
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: same thing about American citizens that are here and maybe
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: born here and live their whole lives here generation after generation,
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: not paying taxes, wb generational welfare problem we have in
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 1: this country. Anyway, moving back to her quote, and they're
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: one of the only ways that our state has been
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: growing in recent years. Uh, it's the House of Representatives issue.
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: More people you have, the more likely daers you're going
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: to have more representatives in Congress. And if your state
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: has lost a net total of twenty thousand people, if
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 1: you don't count the illegal immigrant population, Okay, that's what
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 1: they say. Between July twenty twenty one and July twenty
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: twenty three Californians overall population only grew by twenty thousand
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 1: people period of story. And now I bet if you
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 1: factor in the following county years, it'd be even fewer
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: people total, because more and more left. All of the
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 1: billionaires and millionaires are contemplating leaving if they haven't left already.
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: But that's a financial issue they have. Back to her
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: comment population growth driven by illegal immigrants, and then pivot
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 1: over to providing health care coverage for illegal immigrants. That
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 1: was a topic they talked about as well, and they
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 1: all basically raise their hands, even though California's healthcare system
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 1: is well hemorrhaging and has blown up the state budgets.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: Katie Porter, Democrat and former congresswoman same woman, asked the
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: point blank about the concerns relating to providing illegal immigrants
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: with free health care coverage. All of these illegal immigrants, who,
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: in a broad breast statement she says, are all paying
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 1: taxes and are all working, hard working Californians. Porter, we
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 1: can't afford to have people who are sick, who are
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: making the rest of us sick, She said they should,
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: before her Republican opponent pointed something out riverside County Sheriff
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 1: Chad Bianco was running as a Republican. They shouldn't be here,
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: he said. She paused and apparently like looked a bit bewildered,
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: and said, when anyone doesn't have care, the rest of
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: us are at risk. When people don't get vaccinations. Now
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: pause in the middle of her comment on that, isn't
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 1: that a COVID nineteen argument. I suppose if you are
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 1: a person who doesn't get a vaccination, you are at risk.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 1: You have a choice to do that if you want,
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: should be the obligation of someone else to get the vaccination,
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 1: so you don't get whatever it is you're being vaccinated for. No,
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: that option exists for everyone. So whatever she's suggesting, if
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: you don't give them all free health care, they won't
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: get vaccinated, which will make us all sick. That's again
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 1: the COVID argument, she continued. When they don't go to
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 1: the doctor, they wind up in the emergency room. Pause
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 1: from Roman and analyze that. Perhaps, but they'll go to
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 1: the emergency room if they're in an emergent situation, just
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 1: like anyone else, even those with healthcare. They cause longer
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: lines for the rest of us. Those emergency room visits
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: by the illegal immigrant population who don't enjoy the benefits
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 1: of health insurance. Well, ask Joe Strecker about long lines
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: of the emergency room, and she said, they make our
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 1: health care system. They push it to the brink. Again.
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 1: I will go to the point is a lot of
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: people in this country will go to the emergency room
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 1: for general healthcare. The immigrant population, the illegal immigrant population,
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: one of the group that does that. But boy, going
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 1: back to Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco's point, the broader
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: point is, well, those problems can be avoided if we
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 1: don't allow them into our country. Because they have entered
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: without authorization, we cannot account for them. We cannot plan
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 1: ahead of time to deal with an unchecked, unre regulated
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 1: flow of humanity over our southern border. That is the
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: real problem here. We were overwhelmed with twenty million additional
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: human beings. Say what you want about your humanitarian issues,
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: but you know what, how can you account for that?
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 1: How can you plan ahead of it? Almost with a
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: light switch, you've thrown that level of population into the
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: general population, and we already can't afford to pay for
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 1: the social welfare programs we got here, Going back to
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 1: my problem with the national debt. Jeez Louise insanity six
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 1: fifty six Right now, if you have Krcdtalk station, Congressman
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: Warren Davidson after the top of the UR News, stick around,
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 1: please the iHeartRadio app. It's where we put seven oh
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 1: six fifty five krs detalk station. Bryan Thomas, wishing her
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 1: on a very happy Friday Eve and welcoming as I
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: always do, with a big smile on my face and
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 1: with great thanks. Congressman Warren Davidson. It's great to have
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: you back on the morning show, sir, welcome.
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 11: Back, definitely, my honor.
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 5: Always great to talk with you.
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 2: Brian.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: Let us pivot over to the primary. I'm sad to
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: point out that hardly anybody shows up to vote in
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: that and that's I mean, obviously the primaries are not
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 1: as big of a draw as a general election. But
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 1: I think as we look toward November, Wo's emerged for me,
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: and I think this sort of goes with that, saying
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: we have to have massive voter turnout on the Republican
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: side of the Ledger. You know, if you look at
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: the Democrats, a lot of them don't vote and a
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 1: lot of Republicans don't vote, What do you get a
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 1: fifty percent turnout and a big in a big election.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: You're maybe that means fifty percent of the registered voters
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: don't show up, So it becomes a voting numbers game
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 1: question for you, Congressman Davidson. If these high gas prices
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 1: and the inflationary reality that this war has caused people
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 1: are going to blame Donald Trump for that? Is that
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 1: going to cause people to vote against their best interests
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 1: folks who are traditionally Republican. Are they going to turn
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 1: their backs on everything that they believe in and vote
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 1: for the other party merely because they're angry about five
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 1: dollars gas? Or might they not show up? Because I
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 1: suppose both sides of the political ledger are struggling with
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: that idea. How do you see this plan out in November,
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: Congressman Davidson.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 11: Well, the scary thing is that people might just withdraw
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 11: and not show up. So you think, like, you know,
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 11: the people that don't vote in general. You know a
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 11: lot of times the political scientists people say, well, that's
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 11: because things are good and people are relatively happy. Well
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 11: that might be the case for some folks, but I
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 11: think what you're seeing from a lot of people is
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 11: they just don't trust the system is going to fix
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 11: it at all, or they don't like what's on the menu.
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 11: They're like, no, why would I eat? There's nothing on
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 11: the menu I want. And they're frustrated with both parties
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 11: because the results haven't been produced that frankly, even when
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 11: you go out and elect the majority that you say, oh,
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 11: these guys are going to go do the things that
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 11: we said we believed in the campaign, rhetoric was so good.
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 11: You're like, but the doing part. Why are these elected
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 11: people that we elected to do things sometimes not just
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 11: not getting those things done, but occasionally doing things that
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 11: are completely contrary to what was promised in the election.
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 11: So I think people are pretty disgusted by that on
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 11: some fronts, and at some level, I think even though
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 11: it's the primary instead of the general, there's some warning
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 11: signs out there. I mean, there were like twenty two
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 11: thousand more people Democrats voted in this primary than Republicans,
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 11: and you know, Republicans outnumber Democrats right now, so that's
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 11: not a great sign for Republican morale.
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: I agree with you completely on that. It isn't And
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: of course I mean Republicans Democrats suffer equally under five
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: dollars plus a gallon gasoline pivoting over to Iran. Is
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 1: that situation going to be resolved in time for the election?
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, assuming that this is that's a get people
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: up off their butt to go vote issue, high prices.
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: I worry about that because it's certainly going to generate
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 1: Democrat enthusiasm in November.
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 11: Yeah, there's no question that's one of the challenges. A
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 11: lot of people are demoralized as Republicans because they didn't
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 11: want this, and broadly the country doesn't really like it. It's
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 11: not a popular war. And then the results are there's
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 11: no free wars, right, I mean, there's a trade off there,
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 11: and you can look to it and say, well, it's
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 11: great that Iran doesn't have a nuclear weapon. I guess
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 11: I'm happy about that. But you know, I got an
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 11: F one fifty. It costs like one hundred and thirty
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 11: bucks to fill that sucker up Man's that's that hits
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 11: the bank account for people, and that's a that's a
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 11: legit drag on the economy. You see, you know, six
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 11: dollars diesel before long, that's going to show up on
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 11: shelves and stores. You know, right now it's squeezing lots
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 11: of things. They're still high demand, and you're seeing some
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 11: of the stock market hold strong because the demand is
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 11: staying high and people look at it as something that
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 11: isn't going to necessarily be enduring. But but you know,
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 11: I'm afraid that it may be enduring enough to ripple
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 11: even if it was resolved, you know by this weekend,
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 11: that there could be some implications even between now and
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 11: the election.
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 1: Indeed, you know, and then the longer term forecast. The
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: thing that I'm worried about is the fertilizer being held
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 1: up because you know, it's crop season. You need the
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 1: fertilizer out there to keep cropper eye up. And we're
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 1: going to feel an inflationary effect of that if we
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 1: don't get that straight open back up and that fertilizer
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 1: out into the world.
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean, so there are a lot of concerns.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 11: I mean, this goes back to a lot of things though,
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 11: you know, people, I'm a free trade guy. I would
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 11: love that we don't have tariffs, but I do think
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 11: the right leverage was applied to set things in shape
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 11: for a negotiation with China. Because China is really, you know,
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 11: the interpound gorilla in the room, and people want to
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 11: pretend like everything's fine. We're just trading with them. We're
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 11: trading with them under framework that Bill Clinton spent the
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 11: nineties putting together that treated China as a developing economy,
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 11: and in the nineties essentially they were. But today there's
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 11: the second largest economy in the world. They've got phenomenal
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 11: capabilities with their technology, the resources, they growing and strong
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 11: middle class, and they're abusing the rules of the trade
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 11: game to steal intellectual property with their government, like a
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 11: whole of government. Their intelligence agencies are targeting and stealing
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 11: intellectual property from you know, companies like Cleveland Cliffs, like
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 11: how are they making this greatest steel? They'll block it
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 11: and shape market access to even get into their country.
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 11: Then they'll subsidize and dump and steal market share around
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 11: the world. And they've done that very strategically. We'll steal
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 11: for one. But if you look on pharmaceuticals, we can't
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 11: even make our own drugs at scale without China. You
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 11: look at fertilizer is a dependency that we have from
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 11: a lot of places. But if you want feed for animals,
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 11: the vitamins that are enriched, the rare earth minerals and
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 11: critical minerals. It's not just the mining rights. We've got
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 11: a lot of things that we mind. The processing of
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 11: it is done in China, so we are very dependent
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 11: upon China's supply chain right now. That's with no shocks.
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 11: Chips are getting a lot of attention over the past
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 11: few years, and the question is what are we going
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 11: to do about it? And there may be some temporary
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 11: suffering to produce a better outcome, but that doesn't mean
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 11: that everyone's going to take that into account when they
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 11: go vote.
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 1: Well, and it's going to take a long time to
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 1: unravel that. To the extent we try to unravel that
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 1: relationship with China, I just find it odd and what
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 1: to start contrast to how we treated the Soviet Union
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 1: back during the Cold War and how we treated China.
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 1: We developed this relationship with China, and you look at
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 1: China and you pointed out to the second largest economy
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 1: in the world. We built that. How is it that
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 1: American taxpayer dollars and the billions and billions of dollars,
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: if not ultimately trillions of dollars we spent in China
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 1: building China's infrastructure and offshoring our manufacturing to the communists
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 1: in China. I mean, how do we ever view that
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 1: as being in our best interest?
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 12: Congressman Davidson, Well, look, this was the debate, and both
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 12: the Republicans and Democrats and the nineteen ninety two elections
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 12: said oh yeah, we're going to make this work.
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 11: And Ross Perot was the third party candidate who said,
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 11: there's going to be a giant sucking sound of your
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 11: jobs leaving the country, and people, you know, discounted Ross Perot,
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 11: you know, sad. He's kind of a nutty guys in
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 11: a centric billionaire or whatever, and maybe that was a
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 11: debatable thing in the nineties. You know, I was in
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 11: the Army House, focused on army stuff, but I paid
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 11: attention to the debate and we look back at the pass.
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 11: He's been right, right, he's been vindicated. And it took
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 11: really into President Trump in twenty sixteen to have a
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 11: presidential level candidate say we're going the wrong way. We
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 11: have to change course. And now people are broadly he's
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 11: supporting the direction, but they don't want to take the
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 11: steps necessary to fix it. They're like, oh, yeah, we
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 11: are two dependent on China, So what are you gonna
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 11: do with it? Well, I'm just going to drop this
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 11: order right now because I can get it tomorrow and
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 11: it's going to come whereas it Well, it was shipped
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 11: to a warehouse. It's sitting here close to me, and
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 11: they'll deliver it. The convenience is great, and people don't
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 11: want to deal with the changes in the trade regimes.
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 11: I mean, I even talked with talked with law enforcement
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 11: who are buying drones to use, and drone technology is
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 11: shaping lots of things in the world and they use it.
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 11: Or let's just say you're missing a missing person. They
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 11: want to go up and find that person. Drones can
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 11: do it. They can do it more safely than a
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 11: police chase, for example. But you're getting these things for
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 11: a third of the cost from China, and they're like, well,
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 11: there's no American that's equivalent. I'm like, well, the Chinese
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 11: are subsidizing this, and they're just amazed that American law
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 11: enforcement is putting their tech all throughout the country, I think,
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 11: And at the end of the day, that's what we're
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 11: up against. It's hard to go against the subsidized price.
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 11: And you're like, well, how in the long run does
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 11: this work out for China. And when you look at
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 11: the results, it seems to be working out pretty well.
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 2: Damn well, they're growing pretty strong.
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and it is an interesting Trump's first term, he
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 1: was warning about this and wanting to write the ship
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 1: of our relationship with China for all the reasons you're
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 1: talking about that and all the reasons we woke up
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 1: to because of COVID nineteen, right, I mean, COVID nineteen
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 1: showed up many years after Trump was elected, and lo
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 1: and behold, what he was saying is true. We don't
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 1: make our own stuff. We find ourselves in a world
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 1: of hurt. Right now, I think I got more people
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 1: on the break the relationship or whittle it down relationship
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: with China bandwagon Congressman Davidson.
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 11: Yeah, definitely. And you know he's headed to China here
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 11: later this month. I think this is going to be
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 11: a really high stakes situation. I do think China's in
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 11: a position to give leverage with Iran. They need the oil,
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 11: they want trade to resume. That's why I think that
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 11: the navy blockade is smart and strategic and a better
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 11: use of resources than getting into a ground war in
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 11: Iran more likely to succeed, and China can be useful
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 11: in that because they want the oil, they want the trade,
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 11: and frankly, their economy depends on the trade at this point.
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 11: So I think it's a really high stakes negotiation for
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 11: President Trump in May. It is, and it shapes the
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 11: real superpowers of today, you know, landscape going forward, the
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 11: United States and China.
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 1: Well, I suppose one has to balance. China wants the
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 1: straight of Horror moves open for its own economy. Basically,
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 1: they need the resources that are coming from from the
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 1: Strait of Hormos. Do they need that more than they
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 1: need the Iranian thorn in America's side that they have
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 1: been enjoying and supporting for so long? What's more important
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 1: to the Chinese government?
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 11: Congressman Davidson, Well, there's no question having the United States
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 11: blogged down in the Middle East has been good for China.
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean we've you.
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 11: Know, squandered our wealth. We've made Central Command the focus
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 11: all of our effort is heavily focused in the Middle East.
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 11: That China is definitely the big beneficiary of the Ukraine War.
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 11: You know, great, Well, we can't keep you bogged down.
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 11: And then the least, stay focused over here in Ukraine,
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 11: keep depleting your treasury doing all this stuff. And you know,
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 11: at some level, China's worst nightmare is getting you know,
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 11: Donald Trump elected president and somebody like peg Seth leaving
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 11: the Department of War because now the military is focused
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 11: on you know, fighting and winning wars and extreme confidence
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 11: rather than you know, pronouns and you know, purple hair
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 11: pronoun people and all this nonsense that was going on
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 11: under the Bidend Ministry. Isn't that, you know, the direction
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 11: is the right way for our country. But yeah, to
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 11: your point, China would be happy to see us continue
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 11: bogged down because we're not paying attention to the Pacific.
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 1: No, we're not. And as you pointed out a moment ago,
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 1: we're going through all of our munitions at a very
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 1: very rapid pace. Those are costly and they take a
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 1: long time to replenish. Pause. We'll bring Congressman Davidson back,
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 1: maybe talk a moment about reconciliation, which is on the
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 1: plate right now, what that might bring about seventeen right now,
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 1: if you have KCD talk station fastened pro I'm sorry, yeah,
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 1: seven twenty two. If you have KRCD talk station Ryan
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 1: Thomas with Congressman Warren Davidson pivoting over to reconciliation process.
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 1: I guess my understanding is the House and Senate both
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 1: officially pass budget resolution that initiated the reconciliation process, which
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 1: means that we don't need sixty votes in the Senate
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 1: to get something done. Enter res reconciliation, which right now,
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 1: the current bill is seventy two billion dollars and it's
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 1: primarily to fund ice and and homeland security. So I've
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 1: already seen rumblings that people want a third reconciliation build.
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 1: Does this one not take on enough? Congressman Davidson, are
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 1: you behind this reconciliation process? Where are we on this one? Congressman?
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 11: Yeah, This is known as a skinny budget and reconciliations
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 11: like think of the Senate as say, running a blockade
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 11: on the straight at Hormes, and this the reconciliation is
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 11: a complicated process. To break the Senate's blockade. You see
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 11: the magic word reconciliation, they go, oh, we don't have
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 11: to have sixty votes. We can actually go to the floor.
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 11: And but and then a simple majority passes the Senate.
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 11: There's some strings attached. You can't really do policy. You
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 11: can just do spending or more or less spending, more
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 11: or less revenue, tax policy, and spending policy. So this
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 11: is this is a different because most of the money
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 11: has strings attached. A lot of times, you can't really
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 11: put very many strings attached to this. This is why
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 11: it's sort of gas allotting to say, well, we can
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 11: attach Save America Act to that. Well, it would be
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 11: stripped out because it's purely a policy thing.
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 5: You could put some.
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 11: Spending on election integrity or something and try to get
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 11: a small string attachment. You're not going to get a
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 11: major policy through with this magic word reconciliation. The reason
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 11: it's inadequate is it accepts the Democrats' terms. You know,
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 11: they said, we can fund homeland security, but we're not
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 11: going to vote to fund ice and border patrol, so
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 11: we're not going to allow you to have the federal government.
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 11: This is basically the Democrats sanctuary city policy is really
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 11: open rebellion to the United States authority. They're basically saying
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 11: each city and state around the country is going to
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 11: decide the lawful presence or process of removal for foreign
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 11: nationals in the United States. I was like, no, that's
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 11: clearly a federal role. The federal government decides, you know,
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 11: this path, and Democrats have locked that in by literally
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 11: defunding ice in border patrol. Unfortunately, Senate Republicans accepted that
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 11: term and they strung out this shutdown all year. So
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 11: recently we voted to fund homeland security. We only funded
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 11: homeland security without funding ice in Bortatrol. So this seventy
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 11: two billion dollars skinny budget. Started to think of seventy
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 11: two billion as skinny, but in a one point seven
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 11: trillion dollars spending level, that seventy two is a small
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 11: small number. So you get one thousand, seven hundred billion
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 11: that we spend it in a normal year through the
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 11: regular appropriations process. So this just funds three years worth
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 11: of ice in border patrol. It gets us into twenty
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 11: twenty nine, so we don't have to keep dealing with
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 11: this and funds ICE in Bortrol. But it accepts the
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 11: terms of their debate. And that's why the Republicans are
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 11: talking about doing a third reconciliation path, because we want
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 11: to disarm the Democrats up front as we go into appropriations.
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 11: Remember the government's only supposed to be funded until September thirtieth,
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 11: that's the start of the fiscal year. So we know
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 11: Democrats want all of concessions in order to vote for that,
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 11: and we don't want another shutdown right before the election.
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 11: So the way that you have leverage on that, I
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 11: mean to me, the maximum way is you just appropriate
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 11: the top line number, all one point seven trillion to
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 11: the executive branch and no strings attached, no departments, nothing,
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 11: just put it all to President Trump and the team there.
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 11: And Democrats would lose their minds, right because, like what,
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 11: you're going to let them go do whatever?
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 5: Yep.
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 11: And now I don't think we get the votes in
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 11: the House to do that, but you would get Democrats
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 11: ready to negotiate, because that would give complete control and
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 11: leverage to the president in terms of deciding which department
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 11: gets what, how they spend it. Everything would be sent
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 11: over as a single line item in appropriations. So they
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 11: would lose their mind and of course don't want that,
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 11: and broadly Republicans don't either. We do want a negotiation,
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 11: and Democrats said, oh, it is a negotiation. Now you're
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 11: literally shut down our border patrol and our immigration enforcement
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 11: in exchange for all kinds of other concessions, and so
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 11: they say, oh, but you're not negotiating, which means you're
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 11: not surrendering to our demands. And so the only way
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 11: you change that is you set the terms of the
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 11: fight instead of the Democrats setting the terms.
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 5: Of the fight.
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 11: And that's why we want reconsilation.
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 1: Three understood now, question mark, because me being the fiscal
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 1: hawk that I am, deficit hawk I am. Can you
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 1: defund partners of the government in a reconciliation bill that's
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 1: dollars and cents? Why don't throwse some sections in there?
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: Just pull the plug on a lot of this money.
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 11: Yeah, that's exactly what we should be doing. I mean,
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 11: those just highlighted a lot of these things, right, and
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 11: you know we can we can spend less money on
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 11: certain things. We can you know, have offsets to pay
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 11: for spending on say three years.
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 5: Worth of ice.
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 11: We could cut any number of things. I mean I've
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 11: proposed I think I proposed like one point two trillion
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 11: dollars worth of cuts last last year when we were
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 11: doing the big beautiful bill that was reconciliation one point
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 11: zero for this Congress. Not the first time it's been done.
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 11: I mean, Democrats did it twice under Joe Biden. That
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 11: was their Build Back Better initiative and their Inflation Reduction
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 11: Act or Green.
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 5: New Deal as they called it.
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 11: But they did reconciliation as well. We were doing one.
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 11: We want to catch up to them and do at
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 11: least two.
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 1: Well, I guess I'll like can say, is what popcorns out,
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 1: Congressman Davidson, and I like your idea, Well, my idea,
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: your idea stick some defunding in that reconciliation bill, although
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 1: I don't see that happening. It's already locked in stone
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 1: that it's seventy two billion. There's no more room for
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 1: leverage and negotiation at this point.
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 11: I I sort of am concluding, yeah, once we passed
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 11: the budget that mocks in this two point zero, but
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 11: there's so much appetite to do more. Yeah, that that's
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 11: why they had to start promising, well, we're going to
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 11: do another one, and honestly, that's it would be surprising
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 11: if we get it done before the election, honest league.
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 11: The hope is that we at least get it teed
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 11: up so that we can you know, finish the job
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 11: in the lame duck period between the election and January third.
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 11: So they'll be like the wrap up phase of this Congress,
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 11: and then you'll set the next Congress will be the
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 11: one hundred nineteenth. We're in one hundred and nineteenth Congress now,
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 11: will be in one hundred and twentieth January third, twenty
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 11: twenty seven. That's when the new maps take effect and
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 11: all that. But in this one here, even though the
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 11: number is seventy two billion, we could cut spending in
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 11: certain other areas in order to do it. The hard
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 11: thing is that we just appropriated money for a lot
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 11: of other things. So we're fighting against colleagues to say, well,
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 11: you can't cut that, Well.
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 1: You can't cut that idea.
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 11: Yeah, that's going to be the challenge over the next
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 11: few weeks.
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 1: Indeed, and you know, I saw this article from the
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 1: Hill about the Republican infighting over the possibility of a
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 1: third Reconciliation Bill, which sounds like a pretty good idea,
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 1: especially among opposition, especially among members of the Senate Appropriations Panel,
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 1: who believe it's our job, in the words of one lawmaker,
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 1: to pass funding for Pentagon and to regular order. So
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 1: even Republicans have an opposition this because it sounds like
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 1: they're trying to protect their own turf, which means they're
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 1: trying to protect vested interest groups and things like that,
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 1: so they can pack their their well advanced, their particular
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 1: personal goals in a big broad bill, which means we'll
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 1: have to make concessions to the Democrats and a regular order.
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 1: That's a problem, Congressman Davidson, Yeah.
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 5: That is.
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 11: Unfortunately, when people say you want more by partisanship, you'll
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 11: be careful what you ask for because the most bipartisan
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 11: thing in Congress is appropriation.
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 11: The appropriators have been the roadblock. I mean, we didn't
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 11: get thirty nine trillion in debt because it's a one
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 11: party problem both parties, and they dominate the appropriations committees
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 11: in the House and Senate, and that has been the
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 11: barrier to getting this magic path through the blockade across
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 11: the finish line. Reconciliation undermines the power.
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 5: Of the appropriators.
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 1: See, we are our own worst enemies sometimes. Congressman Davidson,
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 1: thank you so much for your time here on the
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 1: fifty five KC Morning. Shaw'll look forward to having you
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 1: on again real soon and keep fighting to fight, my friend, Please.
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 1: Station seven forty fifty KRC DE talk station that'd be
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 1: Friday Eve. It's interesting Congress Moore and Davids, I'm talking
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 1: about that third Reconciliation bill, and the Republicans won't even
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 1: embrace the concept. This is really a workaround of the filibuster.
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 1: But you can only do dollars in reconciliation, as he
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 1: pointed out, you can't do policy changes, which is why
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 1: the Save Act isn't attacked. Would the Rules Committee, the
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 1: person that lords over what is and what is lawfully
• 1:28:30
  Speaker 1: allowed in a budget reconciliation, would just strike it out
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 1: of the bill. It's a valid point. But you have
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 1: the option of the nuclear option, which is getting rid
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 1: of the Senate rules, which requires sixty votes to prove something.
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 1: So's swirling around that. But this idea of going with
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 1: the third bucket budget reconciliation really kind of focuses our
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 1: attention on the Republicans who are against it. This turf battle.
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 1: These are all children fighting over their control over the
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 1: And if you want to keep the control over the
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 1: flow of dollars, and so your people in your state
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 1: or your fun favorite outside entity gets what you are
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 1: advocating on their behalf for well, you got to make
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 1: concessions to the Democrats do the same thing. That's regular order.
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 1: That's the sausage making we talk about. It's kind of
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 1: an eye opening article on the Hill. The decision to
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 1: advance and nearly focused budget reconciliation build a fund immigration
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 1: enforcement operations in later this month has sparked a battle
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 1: among Senate Republicans over whether to pass the third Reconciliation
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 1: Bill before the election. Some Senators Republican want to advance
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 1: this third re budget Reconciliation bill. Ted Cruise, for example,
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 1: is one of them. Okay. Senior GOP colleagues on the
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 1: Senate Appropriations Committee, though, aren't liking it. Well, that's their turf.
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 1: They're worried it may further diminish their power and the
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 1: regular appropriations process. GOP senators growing increasingly pessimistic about achieving
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 1: it many partisan legislative accomplishments after they enact this most
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 1: recent one funding ice and border patrol. Republicans say the
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 1: growing opposition within their conference about this third Budget Reconciliation bill,
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 1: especially those on the Senate Appropriation Panel, who claim it's
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 1: our job, said one mone maker. One lawmaker out loud
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 1: to pass the funding for the Pentagon in a regular order.
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 1: According to one GOP senator, who spoke on a condition
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 1: of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of attacking his colleagues. Quote,
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 1: there are some who are saying, look, we know the
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 1: House is gonna flip, and so this is basically our
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 1: last opportunity to really do anything. So we've got to
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 1: go for the gold ring. We've got to put everything
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 1: that we want into a reconciliation, built the third one,
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 1: because we're not gonna be able to legislate. We're not
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 1: going to be legislating anymore. But the lawmaker pointed out
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 1: there's a group of GOP colleagues pushing back on that
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 1: very argument, saying Republicans need to rely on budget regular
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 1: budget reconciliation to get the funding and other legislative priorities
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 1: around democratic filibusters. I refuse to accept that, the senator said,
• 1:31:07
  Speaker 1: pushing back on the claim that Republicans need to pass
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 1: this third reconciliation, build a fund military priorities. Second senator
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 1: confirmed there is strong opposition to that third option within
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 1: the Senate Republican conference, especially among appropriators who fear it
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 1: would undermine efforts to work on a bipartisan basis to
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 1: pass regular appropriations bill. The GOP Center, arguing that repeatedly
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 1: arguing relying on budget reconciliation to circumvent the filibuster has
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 1: undermined the Senate's tradition of working on a bipartisan basis
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 1: to get things done. Sausage making, that's the tradition. We're
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 1: supposed to sit down and make concessions to the Democrats
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 1: so we can get them to make concessions to us,
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 1: so we can pat the backs of our favorite friends,
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 1: and we'll overlook the fact that you know, they got
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 1: what they want. This is sausage making. I don't know,
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 1: it's quite revealing. You would think, you know, in the
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 1: interest of America, that they could all sit down and
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 1: accomplish something together and give up on their personal bright
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 1: and shiny objects the payback they got for getting the
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 1: votes and getting the campaign contributions. Isn't that what It
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 1: all comes down to, the power and control of any
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 1: individual senator to give their any given sex segment of constituents,
• 1:32:28
  Speaker 1: I might point out, not to us collectively, but give
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 1: his favorite handouts from our labor in the form of
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 1: taxpayer dollars to their best friends out in the world.
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 1: That's the sausage making and that's the regular order that
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 1: they insist on going through rather than taking the easy
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 1: path and getting something actually accomplished before the election, when yeah,
• 1:32:46
  Speaker 1: the Republicans may no longer be in power and may
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 1: not even have the option of doing reconciliation in the
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 1: first place. Seven four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred

  Speaker 1: never know. Seven fifty fifty about gar CD talk station,
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 1: Happy Friday Eve coming up after top of the hour,
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 1: looking forward to this. The trades are the way to go.
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 1: I don't pay for a two hundred gajillion thousand dollars
• 1:33:25
  Speaker 1: for a college education unless you're getting a real degree.
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 1: Even that's going to come with a heapload of baggage.
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 1: But you know, to get an engineering degree, for example,
• 1:33:33
  Speaker 1: I guess you got to go to a university and
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 1: spend four years that or y you take courses like oh,
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 1: music appreciation to get your humanities under your belt, even
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 1: though there's no real point at all in having to
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 1: take classes like that. That well, if you want to
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 1: avoid the headache and hassle of a very expensive college
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 1: degree and you want a really good living and a career,
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 1: career is a good word. Trades are the way to
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 1: go these days, and more and more people embracing the concept,
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 1: and someone who definitely embraces that concept. For the top
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 1: of the air news, Mike Tripple's going to join the program.
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 1: He's with the Southern Ohio Tech Institute. There are tech
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 1: schools out there you can earn while you learn. You
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 1: can be an apprentice to a journeyman and become a journeyman.
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 1: You can be a union member if you want, and
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 1: you'll have a job that artificial intelligence if you're worried
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 1: about that can't replace, like HVAC. And that's what he
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 1: wants to talk about after the top of the news.
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 1: The Southern Technical Institute HVAC program just one option for
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 1: folks out there that are kind of worried about AI
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 1: or want a career that will satisfy them without the
• 1:34:32
  Speaker 1: baggage and the debt that a four year college degree
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 1: will bring about. I started off this morning on a rant,
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 1: and I just want to go back to it a
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 1: little bit. I'm just so I'm incensed by all this,
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 1: and I don't know that anyone's getting away with anything,
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 1: at least in the sense like when a loon leftists
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 1: runs around and screams about Trump being a Nazi, I
• 1:34:53
  Speaker 1: know that they're crazy. There is nothing in Donald Trump's
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 1: record or history that suggests he's a Nazi, although they
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 1: regularly refer to him as the embodiment of Hitler, which
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 1: you know might lead some people to want to assassinate him,
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 1: because lord knows, we don't want any more Hitlers around.
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 1: But what evidence do you have that suggests that he
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 1: is in lockstep with Hitler? Huh? I mean the Democrats
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 1: seem to be the ones that are anti Semites out
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 1: in the world. I went on a round about that
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 1: in the five o'clock hour as well. But this Graham Platner,
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 1: guy senate candidate and the leader. Right now, there's only
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 1: one challenger left to this guy in Maine Senate candidate
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 1: in Maine. The challenger is David Costello, and apparently a
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 1: pretty decent guy. He was the States the Party's nominee
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 1: for Senate back in twenty twenty four. They say he's
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 1: got all the liberal check marks. He's born and raised
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 1: in Maine. He doesn't have a Nazi tattoo on his
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 1: chest either. That's right. The toten cof the Grand Plantner
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 1: had proudly displayed on his chest until we found out
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 1: about it when he started running for Senate the Senate,
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 1: and I guess he got it, you know, painted over
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 1: or tattooed over, so it doesn't look like a toten
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 1: coff anymore. Anyway, it's synonymous with Nazis. You don't get
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 1: that tattoo unless, well, you're a sympathetic person to the
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 1: Nazi cause. So you could more properly call this Graham
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 1: Platner guy a Nazi than you could Donald Trump. Why, well,
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 1: there's evidence he's sympathetic to the Nazis right there on
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 1: his chest, now covered up. And some of the comments
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 1: he's made are pretty crazy when especially when they come
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 1: from a self professed Democrat calling people gay and using
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 1: the word gayest as putdowns. Yeah he did that, and
• 1:36:29
  Speaker 1: yet that's where people are leaning. There's no outrage from
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 1: the Democrats about this, and probably not enough outrage from
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 1: the Republicans. Although you may hear it before November. It
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 1: was an op ed guy in the New York Times,
• 1:36:44
  Speaker 1: of all place, is one of the more left leaning
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 1: papers out in the world. Graham Platiner isn't my ideal
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 1: Senate candidate, not even close. I'm deeply troubled by the
• 1:36:51
  Speaker 1: thinness of his political experience, oh lacking experience. He is too,
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 1: by the primacy of raw anger in his appeal to voters,
• 1:36:58
  Speaker 1: and the oddities and ugliness from the Nazi tattoo to
• 1:37:02
  Speaker 1: a fondness for gay and gayest as put downs. It
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 1: is not too distant past. It's a lot to overlook. Well,
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 1: you would think that would be the setup for No,
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 1: We've got to vote for and push for the alternative
• 1:37:13
  Speaker 1: we have in Maine as Democrats. David Costello, the guy
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 1: just mentioned. But what does he conclude? But if I
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 1: lived in Maine, I'd vote for him in November. Huh
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 1: how about that? So where's the outrage from the left
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 1: And there wouldn't be any wood there. But this is
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 1: the kind of world we're living in now. That evil
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 1: Orange man is a Nazi gets traction and you can't
• 1:37:45
  Speaker 1: escape the accusations. It's almost baked into the cake. Anytime
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 1: a Democrat talking heads on any form of media, it's
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah, Donald Trump, Nazi, evil Orange man,
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 1: pedophile and rapist. And here they got one of their
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 1: own camp and he's leading. You might have a Nazi
• 1:38:06
  Speaker 1: sympathizer in the Senate, and that might work well for
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 1: the Democrats, who, again on my rant this morning, the
• 1:38:12
  Speaker 1: five o'clock I was, seem to be rather anti Semitic
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 1: in their pronouncements about Israel and their protests against Israel
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 1: and their well support of October seventh, for example. Eh, well,
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 1: you know you can have them, Democrats, you want to
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 1: be the party of anti Semitism. I was a plea
• 1:38:29
  Speaker 1: for all my Jewish friends out there with a scratching
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 1: my head question this morning, sort of wondering why it
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 1: is that on a percentage basis, the Jewish people are
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 1: predominantly Democrats. And if you had to sort of step
• 1:38:42
  Speaker 1: back and boil things down, which party seems to be
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 1: representing or at least somewhat sympathetic to the anti Semitic
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 1: cause these days? Yep? I think you can only have
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 1: one answer for that. Democrats seven fifty five fifty five
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 1: KCD talk station. Let's move away from Polo station. I
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 1: heart radio ATO five Here fifty five KERCD talk station.
• 1:39:05
  Speaker 1: It's Friday E meeting coming up and a half hour
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 1: we get to hear from Jay ratlif or Ihart ed
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 1: aviation experts. Enjoyable conversation with that every week. Least, that's
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 1: my perception. I love talking to him. But in the meantime,
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna love talk having this conversation because I am
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 1: concerned about AI, and I know there's a concern from
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 1: people out there that artificial intelligence might eliminate their job.
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 1: That's a legitimate concern. Some people are already losing their jobs.
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 1: Mike Troubles on the phone. He's with the Southern Ohio
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 1: Technical Institute. Mike, good to have you on the show
• 1:39:31
  Speaker 1: this morning. Welcome sir. And will artificial intelligence remove HVAC
• 1:39:37
  Speaker 1: text from the job from their jobs?
• 1:39:39
  Speaker 10: Mike, No, I don't think that's gonna happen in the
• 1:39:44
  Speaker 10: very your future are ever at all. You know, we're
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 10: always gonna need that cold can of Coca cola, and
• 1:39:50
  Speaker 10: we're always gonna need to be kept warm when it's
• 1:39:53
  Speaker 10: zero outside. We're gonna be need to be kept cool
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 10: when it's ninety outside.
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 1: Amen. For sure, the trades are a great option. I mean,
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 1: what do you want to do spend two hundred thousand
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 1: dollars four years, get a woke degree that no one
• 1:40:05
  Speaker 1: wants to hire you for that might be eliminated by AI,
• 1:40:08
  Speaker 1: or do you want to go to work? I guess
• 1:40:10
  Speaker 1: in as short as ten weeks, Mike, I mean in
• 1:40:12
  Speaker 1: a career, in ten weeks. Have I got the time
• 1:40:14
  Speaker 1: frame rate to learn how to be an HVAC tech?
• 1:40:17
  Speaker 10: Absolutely? I mean it's ten weeks. It's ten weeks. We
• 1:40:21
  Speaker 10: give you the basic essentials that you need to get
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 10: started in the trades, and you get all your certifications
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 10: you need to be able to work in the HVAC industry.
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 10: So that's a very very important thing. We basically we
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 10: can take you from a classroom to pay check in
• 1:40:37
  Speaker 10: ten weeks.
• 1:40:39
  Speaker 1: That's truly amazing, not four years, ten weeks, and not
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 1: with a couple hundred thousand dollars even one hundred thousand
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 1: dollars in debt for a four year degree. If you
• 1:40:47
  Speaker 1: had to pay out a pocket and I know they're
• 1:40:48
  Speaker 1: financing options. I mean we can dive onto this a
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 1: little bit, but tuition is very reasonable for a ten
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 1: week program, sixty five hundred bucks. Have I got that right?
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 5: Yes, it is sixty five hundred dollars. That is correct.
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 10: And by the way, Bryan, the certifications that you get
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 10: in that ten week program are more aggressive and you
• 1:41:09
  Speaker 10: get actually five certifications in the ten weeks, where a
• 1:41:12
  Speaker 10: lot of the other six hundred hour programs only give
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 10: you two certifications.
• 1:41:19
  Speaker 1: Wow. So you're more qualified to get one of the
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 1: open jobs that are out in the world than someone
• 1:41:25
  Speaker 1: who took the longer program. And question Mike, and I
• 1:41:28
  Speaker 1: think I know the answer this one because I'm at
• 1:41:30
  Speaker 1: your website, which my listeners can find at s O
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 1: t I h HVAC. Sohow technical uit s O t
• 1:41:36
  Speaker 1: I soddh HVAC dot com. Are there job opportunities out
• 1:41:41
  Speaker 1: there for folks in the hva C business there?
• 1:41:43
  Speaker 5: Mike, Oh, are you kidding me? It's growing so fast
• 1:41:49
  Speaker 5: it's just unbelievable.
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 10: You know, we're gonna need We're going to be facing
• 1:41:54
  Speaker 10: a shortage of around one hundred thousand technicians coming up
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 10: here in the next five to six years, Okay, and
• 1:42:01
  Speaker 10: you know we just don't have those technicians to uh, Uh,
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 10: to fill the spaces. Uh, we're having what we call
• 1:42:09
  Speaker 10: in the industry a h the silver tsunami. That means
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 10: all the silver haired guys like myself and you're the
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 10: other guys that are in their fifties and going in
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 10: their sixties, they're retiring, okay, and there's nobody do to
• 1:42:22
  Speaker 10: take their place.
• 1:42:22
  Speaker 5: We need these young people. We need this young.
• 1:42:25
  Speaker 10: Blood h in there and and pitching in and and
• 1:42:28
  Speaker 10: taking over.
• 1:42:29
  Speaker 3: Well.
• 1:42:29
  Speaker 1: Given the demand for HVAC career opportunities out in the world,
• 1:42:34
  Speaker 1: the fact that there is a great opportunity to get
• 1:42:36
  Speaker 1: employment and there aren't enough bodies there to to take
• 1:42:40
  Speaker 1: those jobs, there might sounds to me like the opportunity
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 1: for an increase in pay might exist. The laws of
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 1: economics suggest supply and demand. If there's a limited supply,
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 1: then then the money might even get better than it
• 1:42:50
  Speaker 1: already is.
• 1:42:52
  Speaker 5: Absolutely it's uh, you know, I'm glad you brought that up. Mind.
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 10: You know, the the money in the trades had really
• 1:42:59
  Speaker 10: gone up and in the past few years, and the
• 1:43:02
  Speaker 10: opportunities okay that you can do in the trades have
• 1:43:07
  Speaker 10: gone up simply because the HVAC industry, the technology that's
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 10: going into the equipment is course is a lot more advanced.
• 1:43:15
  Speaker 10: So the skill level of these young technicians coming into
• 1:43:18
  Speaker 10: the field, they have to become more advanced, and we
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 10: have to training to do that. Therefore, it's like a
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 10: you know, a regular family doctor or a heart surgeon. Okay,
• 1:43:31
  Speaker 10: we have to specialize them and get them prepared for
• 1:43:33
  Speaker 10: this new equipment that's coming in in this new technology.
• 1:43:36
  Speaker 1: Well, it is indeed new equiping, new technology. I've had
• 1:43:38
  Speaker 1: a geothermal system now for all maybe ten years, and
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 1: it's just basically a computer. I opened that thing up
• 1:43:45
  Speaker 1: and it's just all electronics in there. So you'll train
• 1:43:48
  Speaker 1: folks how to work on that kind of thing, and
• 1:43:49
  Speaker 1: that's that's the way everything's going, right.
• 1:43:52
  Speaker 10: Yeah, Yeah, Well that and you know we got all
• 1:43:54
  Speaker 10: the new stuff that's that's coming in. All the new
• 1:43:58
  Speaker 10: technology is is really becoming a lot more advanced. For example,
• 1:44:02
  Speaker 10: you know the new heat bumps that are out on
• 1:44:04
  Speaker 10: the market. A few of those things they're capable of
• 1:44:06
  Speaker 10: extracting heat down in minus ten. Now, so that you
• 1:44:10
  Speaker 10: didn't have that technology ten fifteen years ago.
• 1:44:13
  Speaker 1: Well, what kind of money are we talking about? Big
• 1:44:15
  Speaker 1: elephant in the room, is okay, sounds good? Jobs there,
• 1:44:18
  Speaker 1: it's a quick course. I can get on my feet
• 1:44:21
  Speaker 1: and earning money in a very short period of time.
• 1:44:23
  Speaker 1: What kind of money were talking about, Mike.
• 1:44:26
  Speaker 5: We're usually talking entry level.
• 1:44:28
  Speaker 13: Why they're being trained around the twenty dollars an hour
• 1:44:33
  Speaker 13: level while they're being trained, or eight hundred dollars a week,
• 1:44:36
  Speaker 13: or if you want to look at it on an
• 1:44:38
  Speaker 13: annual basis, about forty thousand a year while you're being trained.
• 1:44:42
  Speaker 10: That's a base salary, not including your overtime. So I
• 1:44:45
  Speaker 10: would say by the time you would lead, you actually
• 1:44:48
  Speaker 10: get settled into your job, trained and doing what you
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 10: need to be and they can actually the company that
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 10: you're working for can actually start doing their charge out
• 1:44:57
  Speaker 10: timed against you. You should be up to the seventy
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 10: five eighty thousand dollars a year, I mean somewhere in
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 10: the next three to five years, Mike.
• 1:45:07
  Speaker 1: Joe Strecker is filling out the application now, he said,
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 1: but that's eighty grand, you know, for ten weeks of education,
• 1:45:17
  Speaker 1: and no doubt. I'm sorry, there's no downside risk on
• 1:45:21
  Speaker 1: this one. What's it like being in the HVAC trade
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 1: on a day to day basis, I mean, what are
• 1:45:26
  Speaker 1: you kind of doing day to day.
• 1:45:28
  Speaker 10: Well, you know, I'm glad you brought that up, and
• 1:45:30
  Speaker 10: I want to bring another thing of just bring it
• 1:45:32
  Speaker 10: to your attention real quick, Bryd. You know, we're actually
• 1:45:35
  Speaker 10: celebrating what we call a National Skilled Trades Day, which
• 1:45:39
  Speaker 10: was yesterday. The skilled trades have been basically swept under
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 10: the rug and we haven't been It hasn't been pitched
• 1:45:48
  Speaker 10: by the.
• 1:45:49
  Speaker 5: High school counselors or any name. But let me tell you.
• 1:45:52
  Speaker 10: You know, the skilled trades, okay, basically keep everything all
• 1:45:57
  Speaker 10: the every aspect of the building facets, every aspect of
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 10: the building industry. Uh, everything from maintenance to new construction. Uh,
• 1:46:08
  Speaker 10: we keep everything hitting on a from keeping hitting on
• 1:46:11
  Speaker 10: all eight I should say, yeah, we keep your food cold,
• 1:46:14
  Speaker 10: we keep your environment clean and uh and your air
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 10: clean to breathe.
• 1:46:19
  Speaker 5: I mean, it's it just goes on and on and on.
• 1:46:21
  Speaker 10: So we're finally getting recognized, okay that you know, Hey, listen,
• 1:46:25
  Speaker 10: this is a very viable trade. And now the all
• 1:46:28
  Speaker 10: that not just the HVAC trade, all of them, the plumbers,
• 1:46:31
  Speaker 10: the electricians, Listen, we've been swept under the rug for
• 1:46:34
  Speaker 10: a long time and it's about time, you know, that
• 1:46:37
  Speaker 10: everybody understands that. You know, we are an essential part
• 1:46:42
  Speaker 10: of this society too. Okay, we need to be recognized
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 10: and uh and I think that's that's all making a
• 1:46:48
  Speaker 10: full circle now, Brian.
• 1:46:49
  Speaker 1: Amen. You know absolutely there's no argument against that at all.
• 1:46:54
  Speaker 1: And we rely on so many people doing this type
• 1:46:56
  Speaker 1: of work, and I think so many people take it
• 1:46:58
  Speaker 1: for granted. You know, I'm again, I refrigerators broken. I
• 1:47:01
  Speaker 1: don't know what to do and just call somebody. Okay,
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 1: you're calling somebody who's keeping the world running. And that's
• 1:47:06
  Speaker 1: the trades and the jobs that aren't going to be eliminated.
• 1:47:09
  Speaker 5: Now.
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 1: Is this commercial as well as residential that you train
• 1:47:12
  Speaker 1: people for, Mike.
• 1:47:14
  Speaker 10: Actually, what we do is we do we really hit
• 1:47:19
  Speaker 10: on a couple of key things. The refrigeration cycle, temperature
• 1:47:23
  Speaker 10: pressure relationships. We hit heavy on that so they understand
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 10: what they're doing, and then we also hit heavy on electrical.
• 1:47:31
  Speaker 5: Those two key things is what our school.
• 1:47:34
  Speaker 10: Really zero ends on, zero ends on because that is
• 1:47:38
  Speaker 10: what they need, the boots on the ground that they
• 1:47:40
  Speaker 10: need to really make their career grow, whether they decide
• 1:47:44
  Speaker 10: to go with install part of it or whether they
• 1:47:47
  Speaker 10: decide to go with the servicing end of it. We
• 1:47:50
  Speaker 10: given the boots on the ground train they need to
• 1:47:52
  Speaker 10: get started, and of course the certifications they.
• 1:47:55
  Speaker 1: Need, so you have the core information you need. And
• 1:47:59
  Speaker 1: then presumably if if a person graduates from from the
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 1: Southern Ohio I'm sorry, I stumbled here, Southern Technical Institute,
• 1:48:07
  Speaker 1: they would go to let's say a commercial manufacturer, a
• 1:48:11
  Speaker 1: commercial HVAC and that's where they would learn the specific
• 1:48:14
  Speaker 1: skills for that particular company, like a journeyman apprentice kind
• 1:48:17
  Speaker 1: of relationship. They get the extra skills, the icing on
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 1: the cake when they're on the ground, working and earning.
• 1:48:24
  Speaker 10: Yes, because here's the thing. Every company is different, okay,
• 1:48:27
  Speaker 10: every company has a different job approach. So they they
• 1:48:31
  Speaker 10: would like to they like to get these guys okay,
• 1:48:34
  Speaker 10: out of our school that are all licensed, they all
• 1:48:37
  Speaker 10: have their certifications in the and they like to break
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 10: them in and train them, okay, to be applicable to
• 1:48:43
  Speaker 10: their company and their job approach.
• 1:48:46
  Speaker 1: Well, I was thinking the reason, I guess kind of
• 1:48:48
  Speaker 1: the reason I asked that I was involved in a
• 1:48:49
  Speaker 1: litigation involving a very very large food manufacturer was a
• 1:48:55
  Speaker 1: Kannager facility out in Nebraska, and it had an anhydrous
• 1:49:00
  Speaker 1: refrigeration system that blew up. So obviously they need help
• 1:49:03
  Speaker 1: fixing that thing. But that's a that is a horse
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 1: of a different color. Those anhider's simmonia systems.
• 1:49:09
  Speaker 5: Yes, let me tell you something. I can go way back.
• 1:49:12
  Speaker 10: Of course, I've been doing this since nineteen seventy one
• 1:49:14
  Speaker 10: seventy two.
• 1:49:16
  Speaker 5: But I went to work.
• 1:49:17
  Speaker 10: I did work for a company in the local piper resunion, L. J. Quinn,
• 1:49:21
  Speaker 10: back in the late seventies, and we worked on a
• 1:49:24
  Speaker 10: few of those ammonium systems. And I'm here to tell
• 1:49:26
  Speaker 10: you when those spring of the league, okay, it clears
• 1:49:31
  Speaker 10: it out of We could always tell how serious it
• 1:49:33
  Speaker 10: was by the For an example, one of the old.
• 1:49:36
  Speaker 5: Companies here was Hutting Bowner Meets and we got over there.
• 1:49:39
  Speaker 10: They had that old frack commonia system in there, and
• 1:49:41
  Speaker 10: when by the time we got there, all.
• 1:49:43
  Speaker 5: The all the help was out in the parking lot. Yeah, okay,
• 1:49:46
  Speaker 5: it clears you out quick.
• 1:49:48
  Speaker 1: Yes it does. And we'll also ruin all the product
• 1:49:51
  Speaker 1: in the refrigerator facilities, notably like a one point five
• 1:49:54
  Speaker 1: million pounds of mint.
• 1:49:57
  Speaker 5: Throw it out absolutely, But you know, as bad as
• 1:50:00
  Speaker 5: it stinks.
• 1:50:01
  Speaker 10: Brian you know, it's not the the aquamony and stuff
• 1:50:05
  Speaker 10: that's not It doesn't hurt the actually it dissolves into
• 1:50:08
  Speaker 10: the atmosphere. But yeah, it's bad. It's a bad one,
• 1:50:12
  Speaker 10: that's for sure.
• 1:50:13
  Speaker 1: That's why they need experts that know the HVAC world
• 1:50:16
  Speaker 1: and the experience and have it. You start at the
• 1:50:18
  Speaker 1: Southern Ohio Technical Institute sod dosh eight dot hvac dot com.

• 1:52:01
  Speaker 1: very happy Friday Eve, looking forward to the next segment
• 1:52:03
  Speaker 1: because we get iHeartMedia aviation expert Jay Rattliff. And speaking
• 1:52:06
  Speaker 1: of the trading, I'm so proud of my future son
• 1:52:08
  Speaker 1: in law. He's in the trades. He's doing great. I'm
• 1:52:11
  Speaker 1: happy my daughter is marrying Eric. He's up on roofs
• 1:52:14
  Speaker 1: doing roof inspections and doing quotes for Fast and Pro
• 1:52:16
  Speaker 1: and he makes a very nice living doing that. And
• 1:52:21
  Speaker 1: he's an outdoorsman too, so that job fits in perfectly. Now.
• 1:52:25
  Speaker 1: My daughter took a different trade pass She got the
• 1:52:26
  Speaker 1: four year degree and then a master's. She got a
• 1:52:29
  Speaker 1: horticulture degree and I have stayed in a master's in
• 1:52:32
  Speaker 1: plant genetics. But she's using those degrees in the trade.
• 1:52:35
  Speaker 1: She works for commercial greenhouse. Good morning to my friends
• 1:52:38
  Speaker 1: at Burns and my daughter who works in these massive,
• 1:52:41
  Speaker 1: massive greenhouses. You know, she's responsible for nutrients and the
• 1:52:44
  Speaker 1: air quality and knows all there is that what the
• 1:52:46
  Speaker 1: chemicals and diseases. But she's outdoors all the time. She's
• 1:52:51
  Speaker 1: in this great environment. She just absolutely loves it. And
• 1:52:57
  Speaker 1: I can imagine, you know, working at a big commercial
• 1:52:59
  Speaker 1: greenhouse like that, it's got to be a lot better
• 1:53:01
  Speaker 1: than working in an office building and sitting in a cube.
• 1:53:04
  Speaker 1: Just the thought, just throwing it out there. And tomorrow's
• 1:53:07
  Speaker 1: Tech Friday with Dave Hatter, I had this really funny
• 1:53:09
  Speaker 1: article since I just an opportunity to mention to remind
• 1:53:11
  Speaker 1: everyone six point thirty every Friday Tech Friday with Dave Hatter.
• 1:53:14
  Speaker 1: He eat his warnings. This is really funny. The United
• 1:53:18
  Speaker 1: Kingdom has something called the Online Safety Act. It's a
• 1:53:20
  Speaker 1: safeguard to keep children away from dangerous content on the internet.
• 1:53:24
  Speaker 1: So what do you need to do? You need to
• 1:53:25
  Speaker 1: prove your age. So what are they doing? Well, they've
• 1:53:29
  Speaker 1: done a workaround. The children in the United Kingdom are
• 1:53:32
  Speaker 1: as smart as children everywhere. Hmm. I got an impediment
• 1:53:35
  Speaker 1: to get an online here. I want to serve porn.
• 1:53:36
  Speaker 10: What do I do?
• 1:53:37
  Speaker 1: Simply enter a fake birthday, borrow someone else's log in,
• 1:53:42
  Speaker 1: or comically, this is the funny pot use fake mustaches
• 1:53:49
  Speaker 1: or draw fake mustaches in order to fool the facial
• 1:53:54
  Speaker 1: age estimation technology which is built into this Online Safety Act.
• 1:53:59
  Speaker 1: That's right, go to the novelty shop, get yourself a
• 1:54:02
  Speaker 1: fake mustache, sit in front of the computer, and it
• 1:54:04
  Speaker 1: will think you're an adult. They said, Actually one parent
• 1:54:08
  Speaker 1: actually admitted to catching her son using an eyebrow pencil
• 1:54:12
  Speaker 1: to draw a fake mustache on his lip and watch
• 1:54:16
  Speaker 1: the system promptly verify him. Hmm. Some suggest this is
• 1:54:22
  Speaker 1: all a ruse. It never was intended to be able
• 1:54:24
  Speaker 1: to properly verify a child's age, and the revelations of
• 1:54:28
  Speaker 1: the ability of people to circumvent the age verification we'll
• 1:54:32
  Speaker 1: draw us ever closer too. Are you ready? You know
• 1:54:35
  Speaker 1: it's coming mandatory digital ID for see the talk station
• 1:54:43
  Speaker 1: Hey thirty on a Thursday. It is that time. I
• 1:54:46
  Speaker 1: always look forward to this. Talking with Jay Rath is
• 1:54:48
  Speaker 1: always an enjoyable experience, regardless of what you're talking about
• 1:54:51
  Speaker 1: with them, but on this show, it is almost always
• 1:54:54
  Speaker 1: focused on aviation because he is iHeartMedia's aviation expert. Welcome back,
• 1:55:00
  Speaker 1: my friend, Jay. It's always great having you on the show.
• 1:55:03
  Speaker 3: Were your morning and it was good to hear Joe's
• 1:55:04
  Speaker 3: voice this morning.
• 1:55:06
  Speaker 1: I know, and I reminded my listen. I want to
• 1:55:08
  Speaker 1: thank everyone for the prayers they sent out to Joe.
• 1:55:10
  Speaker 1: He got a clean bill of health after a little
• 1:55:12
  Speaker 1: medical emergency scarey yesterday and it frightened the crap out
• 1:55:14
  Speaker 1: of me. Jay Ratlift because you know about Shoe Man,
• 1:55:17
  Speaker 1: it just does not work without Joe. In spite of
• 1:55:19
  Speaker 1: the fact that Danny did a really good job, I
• 1:55:21
  Speaker 1: don't want to discount the Danny's affterrom. Now, Joe's the
• 1:55:24
  Speaker 1: machine that makes things work around here. So that's the
• 1:55:26
  Speaker 1: challenge Show Prayers work up. Latest on the United Airline
• 1:55:30
  Speaker 1: flight to hit a truck. This was the in Newark, right.
• 1:55:34
  Speaker 5: It was.
• 1:55:34
  Speaker 3: It was on final approach coming in from Italy and
• 1:55:38
  Speaker 3: as it came down, it hit a light pole and
• 1:55:42
  Speaker 3: then impacted apparently a bakery truck that was just mining
• 1:55:45
  Speaker 3: its own business, tooling down the expressway there in New Jersey. Now,
• 1:55:50
  Speaker 3: the video that was inside the cab of the truck,
• 1:55:54
  Speaker 3: the video that they had was horrific. Thankfully, we knew
• 1:55:59
  Speaker 3: the driver survived because you actually hear the airplane coming in,
• 1:56:04
  Speaker 3: and you hear louder, louder, louder, and then you see
• 1:56:08
  Speaker 3: the tire out his left window and then the camera
• 1:56:13
  Speaker 3: goes static. So immediately we had everybody from Sean Duffy
• 1:56:18
  Speaker 3: to others talking about pot pilot air and other types
• 1:56:21
  Speaker 3: of things, and I was just like time out here.
• 1:56:24
  Speaker 4: No no, no, no, no, no.
• 1:56:24
  Speaker 3: We got the National Transportation Safety Board that's coming in
• 1:56:27
  Speaker 3: to do their usual outstanding all star effort, and it
• 1:56:32
  Speaker 3: could be pilot air. We don't know that. There could
• 1:56:34
  Speaker 3: have been some computer issues on the flight deck that
• 1:56:38
  Speaker 3: was providing faulty, faulty data to the crew. There could
• 1:56:41
  Speaker 3: have been a mechanical issue at play.
• 1:56:43
  Speaker 1: Now, it could have been a software upgrade. They didn't
• 1:56:46
  Speaker 1: bother telling the pilots about that. I'm bumped.
• 1:56:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, let's hope not right. So, but you know, and
• 1:56:52
  Speaker 3: you know this, the light pole hit a jeep and
• 1:56:55
  Speaker 3: then the plane apparently hit the truck, and I have
• 1:56:59
  Speaker 3: a lot of people that are, oh, you know, he's
• 1:57:01
  Speaker 3: set for life. And I'm thinking I've been around people
• 1:57:05
  Speaker 3: that have been one of the few or only survivors
• 1:57:08
  Speaker 3: of a plane crash, and when you talk with them
• 1:57:11
  Speaker 3: and you see what they go through, I'm sorry, no
• 1:57:15
  Speaker 3: amount of money in the world with some of this
• 1:57:18
  Speaker 3: serious PTSD that people have to suffer through for the
• 1:57:21
  Speaker 3: rest of their life is worth it. And sometimes I
• 1:57:24
  Speaker 3: grow really tired of people that are looking for a
• 1:57:27
  Speaker 3: quick payday at any expense. And this poor guy you
• 1:57:30
  Speaker 3: talk about praying for him, I mean, he may be okay,
• 1:57:33
  Speaker 3: you know, physically eventually, but mentally, I mean, you just
• 1:57:37
  Speaker 3: hear that engine coming down on top of you, because
• 1:57:40
  Speaker 3: that's what you were hearing. That video is just again,
• 1:57:44
  Speaker 3: just absolutely horrific. But I am very confident that the
• 1:57:47
  Speaker 3: NTSB will find out exactly what took place. They'll give
• 1:57:51
  Speaker 3: us a preliminary report thirty days after and the final
• 1:57:53
  Speaker 3: report eight to ten, maybe twelve months from now, and
• 1:57:56
  Speaker 3: they'll outline exactly what happened. We'll learn and we'll commercial
• 1:58:00
  Speaker 3: aviation safer as we're also result thankfully, everybody on the
• 1:58:03
  Speaker 3: plane safe, the poor guy on the truck safe, and
• 1:58:06
  Speaker 3: everybody else on the undert I mean, can you imagine being.
• 1:58:08
  Speaker 1: The car behind the truck, Oh lord, I seeing it happened,
• 1:58:12
  Speaker 1: I mean, anywhere in the area Jay. And of course
• 1:58:15
  Speaker 1: compensation won't cover his PTS, but it will at least
• 1:58:18
  Speaker 1: reimburse them for the shorts that he ruined.
• 1:58:21
  Speaker 3: Well, well, and you've been around people that have had
• 1:58:23
  Speaker 3: to go through these things where you know they've had
• 1:58:27
  Speaker 3: to sue for damages in this regard, and it's it's
• 1:58:31
  Speaker 3: not a big party that everybody else thinks it is.
• 1:58:33
  Speaker 3: So again, I just I'm just praying he's gonna be okay,
• 1:58:37
  Speaker 3: because that looked like a young guy. But you know,
• 1:58:40
  Speaker 3: with any luck, he's scared to fly, so that's why
• 1:58:42
  Speaker 3: he just drives right. Yeah, So.
• 1:58:46
  Speaker 1: That I'll come back with, well, yeah, that's the other
• 1:58:49
  Speaker 1: element of damages. Not only you have post traumatic stress
• 1:58:51
  Speaker 1: if money can't pay you for but you probably will
• 1:58:54
  Speaker 1: never get on an airplane again because look what can happen.
• 1:58:57
  Speaker 1: You scare the hell out of me every week on
• 1:58:58
  Speaker 1: this program, Jay Ratliffe, and I've never been a real
• 1:59:00
  Speaker 1: big fan of flying. Anyway, we'll bring Jay back. We'll
• 1:59:03
  Speaker 1: talk about some actually some really nice gestures in the
• 1:59:06
  Speaker 1: airline community about Spirit Airlines employees losing their job and sorry,
• 1:59:11
  Speaker 1: distance means service sucks to beu if you're on a
• 1:59:13
  Speaker 1: short flight apparently on Delta. More with Jay Radliffe coming
• 1:59:16
  Speaker 1: up fifty five karc Hey get me talls station. Have
• 1:59:21
  Speaker 1: you ever been in a cockpit before?
• 1:59:23
  Speaker 12: Hey?
• 1:59:23
  Speaker 1: Thirty agent about fair Cee Talk Station, Jay Radliff, Haancys
• 1:59:26
  Speaker 1: I heard media aviation expert. We are enjoying the pleasure
• 1:59:28
  Speaker 1: of Jay every Thursday, beginning at a thirty through the
• 1:59:31
  Speaker 1: end of the show, which I dearly love. Pivoting over
• 1:59:34
  Speaker 1: here Before we get to Spirit Airlines, I I saw
• 1:59:38
  Speaker 1: your note here. British Airways is paying pilots one hundred
• 1:59:42
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars a year to not fly. How can we
• 1:59:46
  Speaker 1: get at jus Jrekcker wants to apply for that job.
• 1:59:49
  Speaker 3: Well, you have to be qualified to not fly. And
• 1:59:51
  Speaker 3: let me explain why they have flights coming into Chicago's
• 1:59:56
  Speaker 3: O'Hare airport. Where you're coming in from let's say London.
• 1:59:59
  Speaker 3: He throw your You're landing at Chicago, you go to
• 2:00:01
  Speaker 3: the international arrival terminal, your gate, you're dropping passengers off.
• 2:00:07
  Speaker 3: The passengers have to get off the bags and prey
• 2:00:09
  Speaker 3: to have to get off. You've got the aircraft inspection
• 2:00:12
  Speaker 3: that takes place, and then once customs is finished with you,
• 2:00:15
  Speaker 3: that crew then taxis the airplane back over to the
• 2:00:18
  Speaker 3: other side of the field where it's needed for the
• 2:00:21
  Speaker 3: next flight. Now, the delay and the time you arrived
• 2:00:25
  Speaker 3: in the time everything gets off the plane and the
• 2:00:26
  Speaker 3: inspections are done, to the time that you're able to
• 2:00:29
  Speaker 3: slowly taxi that aircraft all the way over to the
• 2:00:32
  Speaker 3: outside of the airpor where it needs to go is considerable.
• 2:00:35
  Speaker 3: Sometimes it can be several hours in duration. A lot
• 2:00:38
  Speaker 3: of these pilots are timing out because they're on continuous
• 2:00:41
  Speaker 3: duty once they land and the clock is running. So
• 2:00:44
  Speaker 3: British Airway says, wouldn't it be better if we positioned
• 2:00:47
  Speaker 3: pilots at O'Hare simply to taxi that aircraft once it's
• 2:00:52
  Speaker 3: finished from the international arrival point over to where we
• 2:00:56
  Speaker 3: need it for the next time. They did the math
• 2:00:58
  Speaker 3: and said, this is going to be good for customers,
• 2:01:01
  Speaker 3: it's going to be good for the pilots. One hundred
• 2:01:03
  Speaker 3: thousand dollars sounds like a lot. Well one year in Chicago,
• 2:01:06
  Speaker 3: you live there, you know what.
• 2:01:07
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's not as it is. It
• 2:01:10
  Speaker 1: sounds like.
• 2:01:11
  Speaker 3: Pilots who actually leave the ground get a lot more
• 2:01:14
  Speaker 3: money than that. But you know, for somebody that wants
• 2:01:16
  Speaker 3: to be home every day that you know, you know,
• 2:01:20
  Speaker 3: just you know what, you know, it's there, so it's
• 2:01:24
  Speaker 3: but what a fun headline is though to see that,
• 2:01:27
  Speaker 3: or you know, maybe they could use that as kind
• 2:01:30
  Speaker 3: of the Siberia joke. You know, you mess up on
• 2:01:32
  Speaker 3: the line and we're going to put you on the
• 2:01:34
  Speaker 3: ground taxing airplanes at Chicago instead of making two hundred
• 2:01:37
  Speaker 3: and eighty thousand year. You'll be making a hundred thousand
• 2:01:39
  Speaker 3: a year. But yeah, most pilots want to fly, but
• 2:01:43
  Speaker 3: for those that want to stay on the ground and taxi,
• 2:01:45
  Speaker 3: yeah they can do it.
• 2:01:45
  Speaker 1: Well, it's couldn't there be sort of a sub license
• 2:01:48
  Speaker 1: for that. You're not taking off, you're not landing, So
• 2:01:51
  Speaker 1: maybe we just have like a truck driver's certifications, which
• 2:01:53
  Speaker 1: allows you to move in aircraft while it's still on
• 2:01:56
  Speaker 1: the ground.
• 2:01:57
  Speaker 13: You can't have.
• 2:01:57
  Speaker 3: In fact, there's several maintenance people that are qualified to
• 2:02:00
  Speaker 3: taxian aircraft, so you could go that route. But again
• 2:02:04
  Speaker 3: you're still talking about somebody that gets paid a great
• 2:02:07
  Speaker 3: deal of money to work on planes, get them back
• 2:02:11
  Speaker 3: in service and things of this nature, versus here you're
• 2:02:14
  Speaker 3: paying somebody to patiently taxi at a very very slow
• 2:02:17
  Speaker 3: speed that aircraft over to the other side of the airport.
• 2:02:20
  Speaker 3: So they feel like the pilots are the best way
• 2:02:23
  Speaker 3: to go about that, And yeah, it's it's gonna be
• 2:02:26
  Speaker 3: interesting to see if this experiment works for him, because Brian,
• 2:02:29
  Speaker 3: if it does, they're going to end up using this
• 2:02:33
  Speaker 3: same sort of a system at some of their other
• 2:02:36
  Speaker 3: international airports around the world. So it's gonna be interesting
• 2:02:39
  Speaker 3: to see and I've rarely seen anyone do that. I
• 2:02:42
  Speaker 3: was going to ask, with your permission, to pivot from
• 2:02:45
  Speaker 3: this story to another one that.
• 2:02:46
  Speaker 1: We had, the one eighteen thousand flights have been canceled.
• 2:02:50
  Speaker 5: Ah.
• 2:02:51
  Speaker 3: No, I was going to actually go to a hero
• 2:02:53
  Speaker 3: on a flight. There was a Jet two flight. This
• 2:02:55
  Speaker 3: is a flight from Turkey to England that was delayed
• 2:02:57
  Speaker 3: for more than an hour was airborne. One of the
• 2:03:00
  Speaker 3: passengers decided to drink some alcohol she brought on board
• 2:03:04
  Speaker 3: the flight, definitely against the rules. She was confronted. She
• 2:03:07
  Speaker 3: starts making just a ruck as she starts screaming, the
• 2:03:11
  Speaker 3: crews preparing for an emergency landing so they can offload
• 2:03:15
  Speaker 3: this problem. And that's when a fellow passenger came to
• 2:03:18
  Speaker 3: the rescue, actually came over started talking to the woman
• 2:03:21
  Speaker 3: in a very calm voice, Brian. She actually calmed down
• 2:03:24
  Speaker 3: and the flight was able to continue without an unscheduled stop.
• 2:03:28
  Speaker 3: Now needless to save this passenger was the plane's hero.
• 2:03:31
  Speaker 3: But he was also eight years old, so wow, what
• 2:03:36
  Speaker 3: a great story. His name is Phoenix, which I think
• 2:03:38
  Speaker 3: is a cool aviation name, and he and his father,
• 2:03:41
  Speaker 3: once they finally got home, they started being showered with
• 2:03:44
  Speaker 3: gifts from the airline, passengers and people around the world
• 2:03:47
  Speaker 3: that have heard the story. No idea says how they
• 2:03:50
  Speaker 3: got our address. But my son is continuing to get
• 2:03:53
  Speaker 3: gifts from all over the world. But an eight year
• 2:03:57
  Speaker 3: old came.
• 2:03:58
  Speaker 2: To the rescue.
• 2:03:59
  Speaker 1: That is amazing. Maybe we need more eight year olds
• 2:04:01
  Speaker 1: out of the world to de escalate these crazy people
• 2:04:04
  Speaker 1: we deal with day in and day.
• 2:04:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, don't be a Karen, be a Phoenix. I think
• 2:04:07
  Speaker 3: that's a very good thought of the day.
• 2:04:10
  Speaker 1: Need a T shirt for that with that audience. And
• 2:04:12
  Speaker 1: just speaking of Chicago, I saw United Airlines is cutting
• 2:04:15
  Speaker 1: a lot of flights. Is eighteen thousand? Is this from Chicago?
• 2:04:19
  Speaker 3: Hair only only eighteeny two hundred to be exact, And Brian,
• 2:04:24
  Speaker 3: when you see they're cutting that from their schedule in June, July,
• 2:04:26
  Speaker 3: and August, that's when you're adding flights, That's when you're
• 2:04:31
  Speaker 3: adding service. That's when nobody goes on vacation because the
• 2:04:34
  Speaker 3: demand is high, the profit is high, the fares are high.
• 2:04:37
  Speaker 3: You want as many of those silver revenue tubes rolling
• 2:04:40
  Speaker 3: as you can get, and for them to come in
• 2:04:42
  Speaker 3: and say we're going to have to because of the
• 2:04:44
  Speaker 3: cost of fuel that's increased, and the challenge is associated
• 2:04:48
  Speaker 3: with that, We've got to cut eighteen thousand, two hundred flights.
• 2:04:52
  Speaker 3: We're seeing airlines around the world do this, and the
• 2:04:55
  Speaker 3: last thing they want to do is do this in
• 2:04:56
  Speaker 3: the summer. But you have some markets that you operate
• 2:05:00
  Speaker 3: that the profit is minimal, but it's still a profit.
• 2:05:04
  Speaker 3: But when you are starting to pay fifty sixty seventy
• 2:05:06
  Speaker 3: percent more in fuel, that minor profit now becomes a loss.
• 2:05:10
  Speaker 3: And some airlines are saying, I'm not going to run
• 2:05:12
  Speaker 3: this route. I'm going to take that airplane to another
• 2:05:14
  Speaker 3: route where our profit are yield for passengers higher and
• 2:05:17
  Speaker 3: do that. So they've been moving things all over the place,
• 2:05:20
  Speaker 3: trying to adjust on the fly as they can. And yeah,
• 2:05:25
  Speaker 3: it's not impacting the United Chicago, but Delta's canceling flights.
• 2:05:28
  Speaker 3: We're seeing Americans do the same Southwest. Even the low
• 2:05:32
  Speaker 3: cost carriers are doing what they can to adjust as
• 2:05:35
  Speaker 3: they need to because again, they don't have many of
• 2:05:39
  Speaker 3: these in the United States don't have hedge contracts where
• 2:05:41
  Speaker 3: you've locked in the price of fuel for an extended
• 2:05:44
  Speaker 3: period of time. Now, this practice of hedging is used
• 2:05:48
  Speaker 3: to be something here that airlines did all the time
• 2:05:51
  Speaker 3: until we rolled into the pandemic and then it just
• 2:05:53
  Speaker 3: burned too many carriers and they never did it again.
• 2:05:56
  Speaker 3: Hedging is fuel Hedging is popular still in Europe. A
• 2:06:00
  Speaker 3: lot of the low cost carriers there do it, and
• 2:06:02
  Speaker 3: they are really benefiting right now from the idea of
• 2:06:06
  Speaker 3: being locked in for some time at a predetermined price
• 2:06:09
  Speaker 3: of fuel that was no negotiated before all this happened.
• 2:06:12
  Speaker 3: And yeah, they're able to weather this storm much much
• 2:06:16
  Speaker 3: easier and making money along the way.
• 2:06:18
  Speaker 1: Boy cutting eighteen thousand flights on just as several months
• 2:06:21
  Speaker 1: one airline that certainly speaks volumes about the volume of
• 2:06:25
  Speaker 1: flights in and out of Chicago, though, doesn't it.
• 2:06:27
  Speaker 3: May Oh yeah, well, well American in United had I
• 2:06:30
  Speaker 3: think eighty percent of the flights between them. But you know,
• 2:06:34
  Speaker 3: you're talking about eighteen thousand flights, You're talking three million seats.
• 2:06:39
  Speaker 3: So when you're talking about revenue from three million seats,
• 2:06:45
  Speaker 3: it adds up. And it's going to impact the United's
• 2:06:47
  Speaker 3: bottom line for sure. It's going to impact every airline's
• 2:06:50
  Speaker 3: bottom line obviously. And I tell you this is not
• 2:06:52
  Speaker 3: a summer thing. We're seeing this even if things started resuming,
• 2:06:56
  Speaker 3: it's you know, it's going to take a while to
• 2:06:58
  Speaker 3: get that flow going where the fuel can start to
• 2:07:00
  Speaker 3: drop and cost for aviation needs, and this could be
• 2:07:04
  Speaker 3: a you know, summer, fall, even winter thing. So it's
• 2:07:06
  Speaker 3: going to be interesting to see where it goes.
• 2:07:08
  Speaker 5: Well.
• 2:07:08
  Speaker 1: Real briefly, since we're at a time of the segment,
• 2:07:10
  Speaker 1: you being the trader guy that you are at daytrade
• 2:07:12
  Speaker 1: fund dot com, I know you don't trade in long
• 2:07:15
  Speaker 1: term stocks, but has this already impacted the airline stock
• 2:07:19
  Speaker 1: prices this.
• 2:07:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we've seen some overreactions in some things, and obviously
• 2:07:25
  Speaker 3: certain people becoming a little bit more concerned. Most people
• 2:07:27
  Speaker 3: are looking at it as a temporary problem. So if
• 2:07:29
  Speaker 3: you're buying shares of whatever airline you're keep, you're continuing
• 2:07:33
  Speaker 3: to do that. You're just doing it at lower prices
• 2:07:35
  Speaker 3: in some regards. But look, the bottom line is they're
• 2:07:39
  Speaker 3: not most most people in the world, including Wall Street,
• 2:07:41
  Speaker 3: because yesterday, you know, we hit fifty thousand on the dial.
• 2:07:45
  Speaker 3: It was It's not looked at something that's going to
• 2:07:47
  Speaker 3: be a forever type problem. And lets things escalate and
• 2:07:51
  Speaker 3: as things continue hopefully to calm down in that part
• 2:07:54
  Speaker 3: of the world, hopefully the fuel prices will start to
• 2:07:57
  Speaker 3: drop a bit as well. I feel for the truck drivers,
• 2:08:00
  Speaker 3: those independent owners and operators that I mean, good lord,
• 2:08:03
  Speaker 3: fifty bucks a gallon? What yeah?
• 2:08:05
  Speaker 1: And rising and rising more with the Art mediavs. Next
• 2:08:08
  Speaker 1: where Jay ratleffs some interesting story spirit as well as
• 2:08:11
  Speaker 1: wait a second, American and merging with United? Can that happen?
• 2:08:15
  Speaker 1: Don't go away? The right back fifty five nine fifty
• 2:08:18
  Speaker 1: five Kers the talk station, Right Times with Jay Ratleffel
• 2:08:21
  Speaker 1: Art media Aviation expert AM I reading this correctly, American
• 2:08:25
  Speaker 1: and United might merge?
• 2:08:28
  Speaker 3: Well, it was floated out weeks ago by United CEO
• 2:08:31
  Speaker 3: Jeff Scott Kirby, and Kirby said that yeah, he wouldn't
• 2:08:36
  Speaker 3: it be interesting if United, you and American got together
• 2:08:39
  Speaker 3: and merge, And of course that set off kind of
• 2:08:41
  Speaker 3: a media firestorm that went everywhere. American quickly came out
• 2:08:44
  Speaker 3: and said look, we're not interested, no, thank you, and
• 2:08:48
  Speaker 3: the it was pretty well a done deal where it
• 2:08:50
  Speaker 3: was kind of like, Okay, that's parked, but we've got
• 2:08:53
  Speaker 3: the pilots for American airlines that are coming in saying
• 2:08:56
  Speaker 3: wait a minute, time out. Not a bad idea that
• 2:08:58
  Speaker 3: this could actually works. So I've been speculating for the
• 2:09:02
  Speaker 3: last couple of weeks that it's easy for American Airlines
• 2:09:06
  Speaker 3: to say no, thank you, But American Airlines is not
• 2:09:09
  Speaker 3: making but maybe twenty five percent of the profit that
• 2:09:12
  Speaker 3: United is.
• 2:09:12
  Speaker 1: That answers the question. I literally just looked at the
• 2:09:14
  Speaker 1: stock price United is trading at one hundred and American
• 2:09:18
  Speaker 1: Airlines is a thirteen dollars stock.
• 2:09:20
  Speaker 3: You've got it, and it's there for a reason in
• 2:09:22
  Speaker 3: both cases. So you've got shareholders that are like, hey,
• 2:09:26
  Speaker 3: I like the United price of stock a lot better
• 2:09:29
  Speaker 3: than here. They're doing a lot of things right. They
• 2:09:32
  Speaker 3: reported quarters of profit a billion with a B dollars
• 2:09:37
  Speaker 3: and more, and American, you know, a couple hundred million
• 2:09:41
  Speaker 3: if they can make that happen. So the pilots are
• 2:09:43
  Speaker 3: saying it may not be a bad idea, and then
• 2:09:45
  Speaker 3: you've got shareholders. I guarantee you there's some internal pressure
• 2:09:50
  Speaker 3: now that that's been floated out there is hey, this
• 2:09:53
  Speaker 3: might not be a bad idea. So the more that
• 2:09:55
  Speaker 3: people say there's nothing to see here, dead story, I'm like, yeah, right,
• 2:10:00
  Speaker 3: it may come to pass. Now if American and merger
• 2:10:06
  Speaker 3: American in United went skipping down the road in a
• 2:10:08
  Speaker 3: merger attempt. What would the Trump administration do? Now, keep
• 2:10:14
  Speaker 3: in mind, this is the same administration that has been
• 2:10:18
  Speaker 3: blasting the Biden administration for not allowing Jet Blue and
• 2:10:22
  Speaker 3: Spirit to merge. I'm glad that merger didn't go through,
• 2:10:27
  Speaker 3: by the way, because it wasn't good for consumers. But
• 2:10:29
  Speaker 3: the bottom line is, I think of American in United
• 2:10:33
  Speaker 3: went forward with this, the Trump administration would allow it.
• 2:10:36
  Speaker 3: I don't think it would be a good idea because
• 2:10:39
  Speaker 3: it would give them collectively eighty some percent of the
• 2:10:43
  Speaker 3: you know, the Chicago o'harea presence would own it, and
• 2:10:47
  Speaker 3: you would see so few levels of competition, a lot
• 2:10:51
  Speaker 3: of different markets for your seats, higher fares. It would
• 2:10:54
  Speaker 3: not be good for consumers. But that's not saying it
• 2:10:56
  Speaker 3: wouldn't be allowed.
• 2:10:57
  Speaker 1: Fair enough on that one. And since you mentioned you're
• 2:11:00
  Speaker 1: it some love being shown by the airline folks out
• 2:11:03
  Speaker 1: there for the employees lost their jobs at Spirit Airlines.
• 2:11:07
  Speaker 3: We're seeing so many stories, so many pictures. There's a
• 2:11:09
  Speaker 3: picture on a frontier flight of some Spirit people that
• 2:11:12
  Speaker 3: were flying home. I don't know if they were crew
• 2:11:15
  Speaker 3: members or employees. And you see the frontier flight attendants
• 2:11:19
  Speaker 3: standing around and praying over them, and it was just
• 2:11:22
  Speaker 3: such a I mean, and you've got Jet Blue that's
• 2:11:25
  Speaker 3: coming out saying, look, if for all the Spirit passengers
• 2:11:28
  Speaker 3: that are stranded, we're gonna give you a ninety some
• 2:11:29
  Speaker 3: dollars fare to get home. So just prove to us,
• 2:11:33
  Speaker 3: show us that your copy of the your itinerary on
• 2:11:35
  Speaker 3: Spirit will give you these discount of tickets to get
• 2:11:37
  Speaker 3: you home. You've got other airlines that are setting up
• 2:11:41
  Speaker 3: preferential employment screening if somebody wants to apply for a job.
• 2:11:46
  Speaker 3: So you've got all of this stuff that's happening in
• 2:11:48
  Speaker 3: an industry where it's coming together. And Brian, I tell you,
• 2:11:52
  Speaker 3: it really warms my heart to see because you know, yes,
• 2:11:55
  Speaker 3: we have thousands of stranded passengers, absolutely, and airlines are
• 2:11:59
  Speaker 3: doing what they can do assist those people, in essence
• 2:12:01
  Speaker 3: airlift them out of where they're at to get them home.
• 2:12:04
  Speaker 3: But you also have seventeen thousand current employees, many of
• 2:12:07
  Speaker 3: which who already agreed to take a pay cut to
• 2:12:10
  Speaker 3: try to help their airlines stick around. And you know
• 2:12:13
  Speaker 3: they did everything they could, but you know, the clock
• 2:12:16
  Speaker 3: simply ran out. They were just a victim of a
• 2:12:19
  Speaker 3: lot of unffortunate circumstances. I think you remember you and
• 2:12:22
  Speaker 3: I talking that they had twenty percent of their fleet
• 2:12:25
  Speaker 3: Spirit did before the pandemic that was parked. They couldn't
• 2:12:28
  Speaker 3: use it because they had Pratt and Whitney engines that
• 2:12:30
  Speaker 3: had problems, and Pratt and Whitney couldn't figure it out,
• 2:12:33
  Speaker 3: so they could not use twenty percent of their fleet.
• 2:12:37
  Speaker 3: Pandemic hits. Obviously all the wheels come off of everything. There,
• 2:12:40
  Speaker 3: we come out of it, the demand for travels a
• 2:12:42
  Speaker 3: little bit sluggish. Everybody gets up and rolling full steams
• 2:12:46
  Speaker 3: to an extent, and then we have this fuel situation hit.
• 2:12:49
  Speaker 3: So it's been one bad thing after another, which is
• 2:12:52
  Speaker 3: why Spirit had to file bankruptcy twice in seventeen months.
• 2:12:55
  Speaker 3: But you know, as the community, people are coming together
• 2:12:57
  Speaker 3: and I'm really glad to see it.
• 2:12:58
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, you look at that whole COVID thing
• 2:13:00
  Speaker 1: with a twenty twenty perspective, You think, Wow, how much
• 2:13:02
  Speaker 1: industry and business was destroyed as a consequence of our
• 2:13:05
  Speaker 1: overreaction and Covidly wouldn't we be able to do it
• 2:13:08
  Speaker 1: over again? How much different it would be? You really,
• 2:13:12
  Speaker 1: you think so Oh my god.
• 2:13:14
  Speaker 3: I mean, I want to say, I would love to think, Brian,
• 2:13:17
  Speaker 3: if anything, that trip taught me that this group would
• 2:13:21
  Speaker 3: do the exact same thing. I mean, people would just
• 2:13:23
  Speaker 3: shut down and look for somebody to take care of them.
• 2:13:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:13:26
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 2:13:26
  Speaker 1: That's the frightening reality of the world these days. Oh
• 2:13:29
  Speaker 1: my god, the government's going away? What anyhow, Jay ratl
• 2:13:32
  Speaker 1: If you always end on hub delays. What's going on
• 2:13:34
  Speaker 1: with air travel out there right now?
• 2:13:35
  Speaker 3: Head morning issues Charlotte and Atlanta bad news, good news
• 2:13:38
