- 0:35Speaker 2: is going to start with. By way of sound bite,
- 0:37Speaker 2: my name is Brian Thomas. Joe Strucker is the executive

- 0:48Speaker 2: Jack Aden in the Big Picture with Jack Alan in
- 0:50Speaker 2: seven o five. Wow, he's got an interesting topic. And
- 0:54Speaker 2: I'm really intrigued by this one because I've made quite
- 0:56Speaker 2: a few comments on air about might just being appalled
- 1:01Speaker 2: by people in prominent positions senators, representatives, presidents, and a
- 1:08Speaker 2: growing swath of quote unquote respectable media figures and other
- 1:12Speaker 2: talking heads dropping F bombs and what I perceive to
- 1:17Speaker 2: be inappropriate settings. I am guilty of doing that in
- 1:22Speaker 2: conversational English with friends people I know in the appropriate setting,
- 1:26Speaker 2: although maybe some people think using curse words like the
- 1:28Speaker 2: F bomb is inappropriate in all cases. And I acknow
- 1:30Speaker 2: is that position is topic today? Fing profanity that's going
- 1:39Speaker 2: to be a good one anyway. I'm just sign of
- 1:43Speaker 2: the de evolution of humanity when we have well again,
- 1:47Speaker 2: important prominent figures who I think are supposed to be
- 1:50Speaker 2: setting examples for the world dropping f bombs. And I
- 1:52Speaker 2: know it's just for clicks. All they are doing is
- 1:54Speaker 2: trying to get clicks. Generating clicks is all it's about
- 1:56Speaker 2: these days. And let us see here Donovanie Americans for Prospect.
- 2:00Speaker 2: He's the state director of AFP Action in Ohio. AFP
- 2:02Speaker 2: action dot com. Get involved. We'll talk about the one
- 2:05Speaker 2: small step effort, a continuing theme with Donald O'Neil, who's
- 2:08Speaker 2: also doing his best. Uh like Tom Salwastowski from we
- 2:11Speaker 2: had people conventioned yesterday. If didn't get a chance to
- 2:13Speaker 2: listen to him, got a fifty five krse dot iHeart
- 2:16Speaker 2: dot com. We need to get out to vote, We
- 2:18Speaker 2: need to get spread the message. Talk about the socialist
- 2:21Speaker 2: We got another socialist win in Florida. Republicans giddy with
- 2:25Speaker 2: excitement over that. When I'll get to that in a moment.
- 2:27Speaker 2: But donalvan neil at seven thirty. Todd Starns has got
- 2:30Speaker 2: a book, The Golden Age, How Trump Saved America that
- 2:35Speaker 2: should be fun. Todd starrs eight oh five here on
- 2:37Speaker 2: the fifty five Carse Morning Show and Judge Ennita Poultano
- 2:40Speaker 2: at eight thirty ice wants your email. Another Fourth Amendment
- 2:45Speaker 2: column by Judge Enna Paulton. It should be a fun conversation.
- 2:48Speaker 2: Usually is five one three, seven, four nine fifty five
- 2:51Speaker 2: hundred eight hundred eight two three talk go with pound
- 2:55Speaker 2: five fifty on at and T phones. I'd love to
- 2:57Speaker 2: hear from you. Really didn't know where I wanted to
- 2:59Speaker 2: start this morning. Start in Florida. A lot of elections yesterday,
- 3:02Speaker 2: primaries and it's primaries. There are a couple of wins
- 3:04Speaker 2: on Democratic Socialists of America candidates America candidates, and a
- 3:08Speaker 2: couple of Trump endorse candidates did not win, which was interesting.
- 3:12Speaker 2: But let us look at the Democratic primary for Senate
- 3:14Speaker 2: in Florida where everyone assumed the winner would be the
- 3:18Speaker 2: front runner. The long presumed front runner, I'm sure the
- 3:22Speaker 2: polls had him as the front runner, retired to US
- 3:25Speaker 2: Army Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vitdman. Alexander Vidman went to the race,
- 3:29Speaker 2: actually had sixteen and a half million in his campaign
- 3:31Speaker 2: war chest, lots of money. He was tied to the
- 3:37Speaker 2: impeachment of President Trump in twenty nineteen. Democrats got to
- 3:40Speaker 2: love him for that. He was he was one of
- 3:42Speaker 2: the ones right behind it, but he still lost to
- 3:46Speaker 2: the Democrats. Socialists candidate Representative Angie Nixon went down fifty
- 3:52Speaker 2: six to forty four. Some are calling those results astounding.
- 3:57Speaker 2: Nixon only had an only spent rather less than a
- 4:00Speaker 2: million dollars, and apparently her campaign was predicated primarily on
- 4:04Speaker 2: social media posts. Oh my god, there's a painful reality.
- 4:08Speaker 2: This is the direction we're going. It's like moving from
- 4:10Speaker 2: kinetic warfare with bombs and missiles and.
- 4:15Speaker 1: Tanks to well, drones. It's the new wave.
- 4:18Speaker 2: Social media is the way to go with money spending,
- 4:21Speaker 2: and apparently you don't have to spend that much money.
- 4:25Speaker 2: She had a message though, apparently that was resonating with voters.
- 4:28Speaker 2: Obviously they went they backed her. She supports Medicare for all.
- 4:32Speaker 2: How well has Obamacare worked out for you? And of
- 4:35Speaker 2: course that is one of the leading positions of the
- 4:38Speaker 2: Democratic Socialist of America campaign, along with a bunch of
- 4:41Speaker 2: other batcrap insane ideas. Nixon described as a spirited advocate
- 4:45Speaker 2: for higher taxes on the billionaires, so she's a class
- 4:50Speaker 2: warfare warrior. She wanted to close down for profit prisons,
- 4:55Speaker 2: just part of the prison system, the prison industrial complex.
- 5:00Speaker 2: So apparently not running on a campaign to get rid
- 5:02Speaker 2: of prisons completely, which is part of the DSA platform,
- 5:05Speaker 2: just closing down the for profit ones. Also wants to
- 5:08Speaker 2: raise the federal minimum wage two pick a number. What
- 5:11Speaker 2: do you think it is? Well, twenty five dollars per hour,
- 5:16Speaker 2: and I think that's the highest one any candidate's pushing for. Anyway,
- 5:18Speaker 2: that's her platform. No, Bernie Sanders and Representative of alexandri
- 5:24Speaker 2: O Kazio Court has did not back her. However, other
- 5:28Speaker 2: leading progressives like Democratic Representative Ilon Omar of Minnesota, Rashida
- 5:34Speaker 2: Talibo of Michigan, and Maxwell Frost to Florida. You heard
- 5:37Speaker 2: that group squad members and leftists, they did back her. Hm,
- 5:46Speaker 2: she actually led this. Nixon Canada, the winner of the primary, anyway,
- 5:49Speaker 2: had led a demonstration outside of Republican Governor Ron de
- 5:52Speaker 2: Santis protesting the redistricting plan signed into law that also
- 5:56Speaker 2: popular among Democrats. The protest anyway, now, according to Newsmax reporting, Republicans,
- 6:05Speaker 2: at least in the words that John Gizzey ever, News
- 6:07Speaker 2: could scarcely could scarcely contain their glee over her nomination
- 6:12Speaker 2: because she's going to be running up against Senator Ashley
- 6:15Speaker 2: Moody Cornelie Florida GOP consultant Ron Phillips. Democrats have their
- 6:21Speaker 2: very own socialist statewide candidate, congratulations Senator Moody. So Democratic
- 6:27Speaker 2: gubernatorial nominee former Representative David Jolly must be shaking his
- 6:31Speaker 2: head in disbelief that he has to share top of
- 6:33Speaker 2: the ticket with the socialist congratulations governor actually GOP nominee
- 6:39Speaker 2: Byron Donalds. Yes, Byron Donalds won the gubernatorial race in Florida,
- 6:45Speaker 2: all right, So moving pivoting away from Florida, DSA can
- 6:48Speaker 2: I think Actually the Republicans are excited about that. Probably
- 6:51Speaker 2: pretty solid ground if you note how how red Florida is.
- 6:56Speaker 2: It is a solid red state, and I cannot imagine
- 6:59Speaker 2: the batcrap in saying DSA policies winning the day in Florida.
- 7:05Speaker 2: We're all going to wait and find out, though. But
- 7:07Speaker 2: do we trust polling anymore? I know, I always joke.
- 7:09Speaker 2: I've been joking about polling for for a long time,
- 7:12Speaker 2: up until well when the word got out about media strategies.
- 7:18Speaker 2: Remember Francesca Hong, the Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate who was shown
- 7:22Speaker 2: winning by twenty points as he went into the election,
- 7:25Speaker 2: only to lose Well Media's strategies as the poll that
- 7:28Speaker 2: came out had her ahead twenty points. Guess what it
- 7:31Speaker 2: was all a lie, all those polls showing large Democratic
- 7:39Speaker 2: leads and high profile races. Well Media Strategies admitted that
- 7:44Speaker 2: that polling was a social experiment. There words social experiment,
- 7:49Speaker 2: and it previously released results that should not even be
- 7:52Speaker 2: considered genuine. Company announced on Monday that it had conducted
- 7:55Speaker 2: it concluded its polling project, withdrew all of its surveys
- 8:00Speaker 2: and said they should not be cited or treated as
- 8:03Speaker 2: genuine polling data. They say the experiment was designed to
- 8:08Speaker 2: examine how purported polling could spread through the political information
- 8:12Speaker 2: ecosystem without independent verification. Here's the point. It's like a meme,
- 8:18Speaker 2: and every meme that's sent to me that it's got
- 8:20Speaker 2: some sort of statistic in it, I never believe it.
- 8:23Speaker 2: And people will post these things all the time, and
- 8:26Speaker 2: if you go and you try to do some research
- 8:27Speaker 2: on it, you find it well, either it has been
- 8:29Speaker 2: specifically debunked or the real information, the stuff that is
- 8:33Speaker 2: well demonstrably reliable, at least it's from a reliable source
- 8:40Speaker 2: that shows that the little SoundBite of the meme is
- 8:42Speaker 2: just just outright lies. Well, this is what they did.
- 8:45Speaker 2: They put lies out into the world, and they basically
- 8:48Speaker 2: wanted to see who would repeat them. The mission came
- 8:53Speaker 2: after the firm release of survey showing Los Angeles Mayor
- 8:56Speaker 2: Karen Bass with a twelve point advantage of our City
- 8:58Speaker 2: council member Nithea Raymond heading end of the November runoff.
- 9:03Speaker 2: Bass initially tied of the result on social media before
- 9:05Speaker 2: the poll was exposed as bogus. Of course, our campaigns
- 9:09Speaker 2: calling for an investigation into possible efforts to influence elections,
- 9:12Speaker 2: So media strategies may be in some measure of hot water,
- 9:15Speaker 2: although I don't see how it's free speech and you're
- 9:18Speaker 2: allowed to put well lies out into the world. Hey, Joe,
- 9:22Speaker 2: make up a poll right now. They also a Median
- 9:26Speaker 2: Strategies had published a poll showing wiscontent is the Francesca
- 9:29Speaker 2: Honk poll. I just mentioned to the twenty point lead
- 9:32Speaker 2: she lost. Even reputable pollsters has written have even struggled
- 9:42Speaker 2: in recent elections, like in their measure of support for
- 9:45Speaker 2: Donald Trump, citing one dramatic example of that. Before the
- 9:49Speaker 2: twenty twenty four presidential elections in Iowa, the Des Moines
- 9:52Speaker 2: Register Mattac media compole conducted by veteran Polster and Selzer,
- 9:58Speaker 2: showed former Vice president Kamala Harris three points ahead of
- 10:01Speaker 2: Trump forty seven forty four. Trump won, I will buy
- 10:04Speaker 2: thirteen points. Oh, polsters underestimated his strength in an important
- 10:12Speaker 2: states in twenty sixteen again in twenty twenty and twenty
- 10:14Speaker 2: twenty four. Trump obviously was a maybe this is the
- 10:18Speaker 2: answer to the reason Trump's numbers weren't shown in the polls.
- 10:22Speaker 2: People wouldn't say two polsters who call them up or
- 10:25Speaker 2: otherwise reach out to them that they actually supported Trump.
- 10:29Speaker 2: Trump's like a third rail bunch of people. You know,
- 10:32Speaker 2: do you want to admit that you love Donald Trump
- 10:34Speaker 2: and go out into the world wearing your Maga hat
- 10:36Speaker 2: to be You know, I can say, spit on, cursed
- 10:40Speaker 2: at docks. You know how it goes ridiculed, criticized. Isn't
- 10:47Speaker 2: it easier in life for most people? Just keep their
- 10:49Speaker 2: head down, take the Maga hat off, don't say a
- 10:51Speaker 2: word about their support of Donald Trump. And just support
- 10:54Speaker 2: him in the poll and when you go and vote.
- 10:56Speaker 2: I think there was a lot of that going on,
- 10:58Speaker 2: and that may be the case with a lot of
- 11:00Speaker 2: things with matters political. For people, if you stay out
- 11:03Speaker 2: of the fray, you keep your opinions, you know who
- 11:07Speaker 2: you're going to vote for, you know what your attitudes are.
- 11:09Speaker 2: But when it comes to polling, you know, screw it.
- 11:12Speaker 2: They don't need to know. I'm not even gonna answer.
- 11:15Speaker 2: And that's another component of polling. Have you ever picked
- 11:19Speaker 2: up the phone or actually stayed on the phone when
- 11:20Speaker 2: someone says they're gonna they want to pull you if
- 11:23Speaker 2: you pick up the phone and you actually answer the
- 11:25Speaker 2: phone call, which now thankfully we have call our ID.
- 11:27Speaker 2: And if you're like me, if you see a number
- 11:29Speaker 2: you don't recognize, you don't even bother picking it up.
- 11:31Speaker 1: That's me.
- 11:32Speaker 2: So I have gotten multiple calls from pollsters that I
- 11:35Speaker 2: didn't bother picking up. There's a message on there that
- 11:37Speaker 2: indeed they're polling, want to do a poll, But even
- 11:41Speaker 2: the ones I get in the mail, throw them in
- 11:42Speaker 2: the garbage. I don't ever answer them. I have a
- 11:46Speaker 2: feeling a lot of people are like that, which results
- 11:49Speaker 2: in some really unreliable polling. Hmm oh, look, here's a
- 11:54Speaker 2: separate article over a Bridbard investigation in the US Senate
- 11:57Speaker 2: polling shows seventy three percent of surveys over state the
- 12:00Speaker 2: levels of support for Democrats some numbers. Crunch On investigation
- 12:04Speaker 2: looked at over three thousand polls over the last four
- 12:07Speaker 2: election cycles. Seventy three over state seventy three percent over
- 12:11Speaker 2: state Democrats.
- 12:13Speaker 1: Why might that be? I don't know.
- 12:16Speaker 2: But of course, if you're hearing pol and you know,
- 12:18Speaker 2: here's another question for you, and you can answer this
- 12:20Speaker 2: question for me if you want to call on and
- 12:21Speaker 2: talk about it.
- 12:22Speaker 1: Who does that help?
- 12:24Speaker 2: If you are living in a state like Wisconsin and
- 12:28Speaker 2: you read a poll that says this socialist Hong is
- 12:31Speaker 2: ahead by twenty points, does that make you more inclined
- 12:35Speaker 2: to vote if you're a Democrat? Is to make you
- 12:36Speaker 2: more inclined to go vote? Or do you stay at
- 12:39Speaker 2: home saying, well, the Democrats got a comfortable lead. It's
- 12:42Speaker 2: a primary. Are you a Democrat that is fearful that
- 12:44Speaker 2: the Democratic socialists will win? Look at that advantage. I
- 12:48Speaker 2: got to go in and vote. I had to counter
- 12:50Speaker 2: this effect. Or do you give up and say damn?
- 12:53Speaker 2: It this socialist is gonna win. She's so far ahead
- 12:56Speaker 2: that going in and voting is a waste of my
- 12:58Speaker 2: Democrat vote time. It's I'm sure there's research out there
- 13:04Speaker 2: that determines which who gets the advantage of the erroneous
- 13:08Speaker 2: polling showing one candidate far ahead of the other. But
- 13:11Speaker 2: it's just the thought experiment. I don't know. But then again,
- 13:15Speaker 2: I don't participate in polls either. Five eighteen fifty five
- 13:18Speaker 2: cars de talk station plenty to talk about coming up.
- 13:21Speaker 2: I'd enjoy hearing from you, so please feel free to

- 13:40Speaker 2: the current bond market. Lots of reporting on the bond
- 13:43Speaker 2: market issues going on right now. Of course, the Daniel
- 13:46Speaker 2: Davis Deep dive we're going with economic warfare against Iran.
- 13:51Speaker 2: Donald Trump said, all the minds have been swept out right.
- 13:56Speaker 2: I don't know fog of war is in this particular
- 14:00Speaker 2: case and didn't look really good based on Daniel Davis's
- 14:03Speaker 2: estimate and more and more information news sources across the
- 14:07Speaker 2: spectrum pointing out how Iran really is capable of weathering
- 14:12Speaker 2: a very very difficult economic storm. They have callous skin,
- 14:17Speaker 2: the Iranians. They have been living pretty much in desperate
- 14:21Speaker 2: conditions for a well, going all the way back to
- 14:25Speaker 2: the Iran Iraq War and even further the entire the
- 14:28Speaker 2: last forty seven years since they overthrew the shaw of Iran,
- 14:32Speaker 2: things have not been great economically. And of course it
- 14:34Speaker 2: is religious fundamentalism. So you've got a fundamentalist religious government
- 14:38Speaker 2: that they are weed to. I mean, you're going to
- 14:40Speaker 2: turn your back on your own faith. You know how
- 14:41Speaker 2: difficult a challenge that would be. Go ahead and think
- 14:43Speaker 2: about it. Someone comes up to you and tells you,
- 14:46Speaker 2: if you're a Christian, you renounce Jesus. I'm here to
- 14:50Speaker 2: tell you that you are wrong. Renounce them. Try doing
- 14:53Speaker 2: that anyway. Tom Zawis ASKI we the people convention. Also

- 15:00Speaker 2: cast page and Adam Kahler joined the program. The cincinnatiexchange
- 15:04Speaker 2: dot COM's Adam's website, and he's writing about yet another
- 15:06Speaker 2: large healthcare fraud case.
- 15:08Speaker 1: We have a high man.
- 15:09Speaker 2: Pleading guilty who was involvement with the US Department of
- 15:12Speaker 2: Justice says is the largest healthcare fraud case ever prosecuted.
- 15:17Speaker 2: Welcome to fraud thanks to government programs. Eld r tzarbabble.
- 15:24Speaker 2: That's the guy forty five years old from Pepperbike, Ohio,
- 15:27Speaker 2: laundering three point four million dollars in a list of
- 15:29Speaker 2: healthcare fraud proceeds through multiple regional banks court to the
- 15:33Speaker 2: Justice Department. The fraud proceeds were particularly susceptible to laundering
- 15:36Speaker 2: because they originated from legitimate sources Medicare and established private
- 15:41Speaker 2: insurance carriers, which made it appear that these charges were okay.
- 15:46Speaker 2: The fraud scheme based in Russia and other countries, multi
- 15:54Speaker 2: billion dollar scheme, they say. So far, forty five people
- 15:56Speaker 2: have been charged, and these cases apparently coordinated directly with
- 16:02Speaker 2: associates employed at banks. They exploited our financial system depositing
- 16:08Speaker 2: these insurance reimbursement checks from the fraud and to get
- 16:13Speaker 2: into the United States financial system, they deployed a range
- 16:15Speaker 2: of tactics to circumvent internal controls at the banks, like
- 16:19Speaker 2: hiring people inside. They got a mole in there so
- 16:21Speaker 2: they can circumvent these protections. They use false sale documentation,
- 16:26Speaker 2: corporate registration documents, et cetera to get these proceeds funneled through,
- 16:31Speaker 2: and they funnel proceeds from Medicare and other legitimate healthcare
- 16:35Speaker 2: insurers into the accounts as seemingly clean money. And then,
- 16:38Speaker 2: of course this ratcheted up to the tune of billions
- 16:41Speaker 2: of dollars. Between two years July twenty second and twenty fourth,
- 16:44Speaker 2: the organization submitted one point four two billion dollars in
- 16:50Speaker 2: frost and faudulent claims to Medicare and other health insurers.
- 16:55Speaker 2: Two years hopefully the memo has gotten out again. I
- 17:02Speaker 2: go back regularly the fact that this has got well.
- 17:04Speaker 2: Except unless you are relying on the corruption to further
- 17:10Speaker 2: your personal political ends, this seems to be happening. There
- 17:14Speaker 2: seems to be a trail a pattern emerging where fraudulently
- 17:17Speaker 2: stolen or dollars stolen via fraud or outright theft seem
- 17:22Speaker 2: to make their way all around circuitously and then land
- 17:24Speaker 2: back in the pockets of certain candidates. It's like these
- 17:28Speaker 2: non governmental organizations. You know, you hire one, and magically,
- 17:32Speaker 2: you know the people responsible for hiring them and giving
- 17:34Speaker 2: them taxpayer dollars to do something altruistic in the community
- 17:38Speaker 2: end up campaigning for the people that gave them that job.
- 17:41Speaker 2: So follow the money trail. So any politician who is
- 17:45Speaker 2: not outright ravenous over protecting your taxpayer dollars, I'd raise
- 17:49Speaker 2: a jaundiced eye of skepticism and view them as part
- 17:52Speaker 2: of the problem. Five twenty six. Right now, don't go away.
- 17:54Speaker 2: I got plenty of things coming up in the local
- 17:56Speaker 2: stories and I love hearing from you, so feel free
- 17:59Speaker 2: to call.
- 17:59Speaker 1: Be right back fifty five KRC.
- 18:05Speaker 2: A happy one, five two three talk. Oh that's puts
- 18:09Speaker 2: a smile on my face. Looking up several callers online.
- 18:12Speaker 2: I want to get to everybody, so let's start in
- 18:14Speaker 2: the order in which they received, meaning Larry's first. Larry,
- 18:16Speaker 2: thanks for calling this morning. Good to hear from you, sir.
- 18:19Speaker 5: Good morning, Brian.
- 18:21Speaker 6: You were just talking about that story of that biggest
- 18:24Speaker 6: Medicare fraud case last week. I was at my parents'
- 18:29Speaker 6: house visiting and they're both retired, mom and dad, and
- 18:34Speaker 6: my mother was telling me about this bill that she
- 18:36Speaker 6: had just received in the mail. It was for from
- 18:40Speaker 6: Medicare a statement where they paid fifty I think it
- 18:44Speaker 6: was fifty nine hundred dollars to a company to a
- 18:47Speaker 6: doctor's office in Texas.
- 18:50Speaker 5: Uh.
- 18:51Speaker 6: And it was over regards of it incontinence testing and supplies.
- 18:57Speaker 6: My father's seventy three never had any kind of tests
- 19:01Speaker 6: like that.
- 19:02Speaker 5: So she called.
- 19:03Speaker 6: Medicare, and Medicare said, yeah, they paid it, they paid
- 19:06Speaker 6: fifty nine hundred, but they don't owe no remaining ballants
- 19:10Speaker 6: of the other ten. But I told my mother, I said,
- 19:12Speaker 6: you need to call this place of text. You see
- 19:15Speaker 6: it legit.
- 19:16Speaker 7: And they were not so.
- 19:20Speaker 6: Attention that even our government had a watching every little
- 19:25Speaker 6: penny taxpayer money and all this fraud waste when it
- 19:30Speaker 6: comes to medical claims for Medicare. So all you seniors
- 19:35Speaker 6: out there that might be listening, or any any any
- 19:39Speaker 6: other listener that has parents that are retired, they don't
- 19:43Speaker 6: a lot of times understand this stuff, and so I
- 19:46Speaker 6: just wanted to make you aware.
- 19:49Speaker 1: You know, that happened a level that sound advice.
- 19:53Speaker 2: And you know the other thing about it is, even
- 19:55Speaker 2: if the senior understands what they're looking at well, if
- 19:58Speaker 2: there's no balanced, if the paperwork comes doesn't see and
- 20:03Speaker 2: you we paid ax and you owe an additional some
- 20:06Speaker 2: they're gonna look at it and say, well, screw it.
- 20:08Speaker 2: You know, I don't owe anything. The bill's been paid,
- 20:10Speaker 2: Throw it away in the toilet and the garbage. Right,
- 20:12Speaker 2: So don't be that person. Take more proactive approach like
- 20:15Speaker 2: Larry said, like Larry's family did. But also I think
- 20:18Speaker 2: the other thing, rather than just call that fake provider's
- 20:21Speaker 2: office or perhaps real provider, call the FBI and report it.
- 20:25Speaker 2: Justice Department may very well view that perhaps it could
- 20:28Speaker 2: be the tip of the iceberg kind of thing like
- 20:29Speaker 2: so many other you know, independent reporter has been finding
- 20:31Speaker 2: out so.
- 20:32Speaker 6: That you know, she did call Medicare and reported that
- 20:36Speaker 6: to Medicare, but they didn't seem like really super interested
- 20:40Speaker 6: if they said, they'll just take notes of all this
- 20:42Speaker 6: and passed on.
- 20:44Speaker 1: Sure to find out.
- 20:46Speaker 6: Now with Dave tech hatter fellow that you talked to
- 20:50Speaker 6: every week, come to find out my father's information was
- 20:53Speaker 6: packed through Mercy Hill. Oh no, that's where all this
- 20:58Speaker 6: came about. That's how they got my dad's information to
- 21:02Speaker 6: be able to do the state feeling well.
- 21:04Speaker 1: And you know, that's another thing.
- 21:05Speaker 2: Artificial intelligence seems to me the way it works, and
- 21:07Speaker 2: it's i mean, the magic of AI. You could probably
- 21:10Speaker 2: load into artificial intelligence a list of all those folks
- 21:14Speaker 2: who've had their information hacked, and that is available on
- 21:17Speaker 2: the dark web, right, because there are lots of lists circulating,
- 21:20Speaker 2: Like if you're a member of lifelocked, they will let
- 21:23Speaker 2: you know that your information has been found in the
- 21:26Speaker 2: dark web, So this is out there now. If you
- 21:28Speaker 2: had that, you could cross reference people who've had on
- 21:31Speaker 2: medicaid for our Medicare for example, or any other program,
- 21:34Speaker 2: who've had their information hacked on the Internet, such that
- 21:39Speaker 2: there's so much of the hacked information that they some
- 21:41Speaker 2: fraudster could legitimately try to put a fraudulent claim through
- 21:45Speaker 2: cross reference that against claims that are being paid for
- 21:47Speaker 2: that individual pursuing through the Medicare program. And that way
- 21:52Speaker 2: you could keep track of them, because obviously, someone whose
- 21:54Speaker 2: information is out there in the world who has been
- 21:57Speaker 2: hacked certainly presents a greater likelihood of fraud than someone
- 22:02Speaker 2: whose information remains anonymous. Just I think that's certainly something
- 22:06Speaker 2: that could be done. I'll take anything when it comes
- 22:08Speaker 2: to eliminating fraud, wasting abuse. Who's next Joe's tracker? Oh
- 22:13Speaker 2: it's break It is break time. We'll take a break
- 22:15Speaker 2: here in New Hampshire. Gary and Tom please hold want
- 22:18Speaker 2: to hear from you. It's you or the stack is stupid.
- 22:20Speaker 2: I like the conversations five thirty five right now. Iift
- 22:24Speaker 2: you have KCD talk station.
- 22:25Speaker 1: Fifty five KRC the talk station five thirty nine.
- 22:31Speaker 2: If you have KCD talk station, gonna go straight to
- 22:33Speaker 2: the phone. So if Gary and Tom held over, got
- 22:36Speaker 2: to start with Gary, Tom, hold on. I appreciate your message,
- 22:38Speaker 2: but Gary was first. Gary, welcome back to the show.
- 22:40Speaker 2: Happy Wednesday to you.
- 22:42Speaker 8: Happy Wednesday. Hey, they got my brother for fraud. Somebody
- 22:47Speaker 8: bought a car out in California fifty six thousand dollars.
- 22:51Speaker 8: Didn't find out until three months later when nobody paid
- 22:55Speaker 8: for the car. And now he's getting phone calls from
- 22:58Speaker 8: the bank. They want their money. So now there's lawyers
- 23:02Speaker 8: and everything. So it's going on.
- 23:05Speaker 2: It sure is, you know, And that's a springboard to
- 23:07Speaker 2: remind everybody freeze your your your credit's a report, you know,
- 23:12Speaker 2: because if you want to open a line of credit,
- 23:14Speaker 2: they get in touch with the credit agencies. If you
- 23:16Speaker 2: have a freeze on that, they can't open a line
- 23:19Speaker 2: of credit in your name. So I can only imagine
- 23:22Speaker 2: that went through that process. I but you know that's
- 23:25Speaker 2: that's that's right, old good old school Dave Hat or
- 23:27Speaker 2: Tech Friday information, you know, freeze your your credit score
- 23:32Speaker 2: or your credit and credit agency.
- 23:34Speaker 8: One one quick thing and I'll be off here. Daniel Davis.
- 23:39Speaker 8: One of our critical infrastructures that we have to do
- 23:44Speaker 8: is we have to make sure that manufacturing is up
- 23:47Speaker 8: to snuff. And there's an ammunition plant that was supposed
- 23:50Speaker 8: to produce thirty thousand rounds of one to fifty five
- 23:54Speaker 8: shells that the military bought two years ago, and it
- 23:59Speaker 8: was thirty thousand rounds per month. They have produced zero rounds.
- 24:05Speaker 8: It was supposed to be all automatic. We paid five
- 24:08Speaker 8: hundred million dollars. The army paid five hundred million dollars
- 24:11Speaker 8: for this. It hasn't produced nothing. They just shut it down.
- 24:16Speaker 8: And part of infrastructure and war is production. Oh yeah,
- 24:21Speaker 8: it's become critical elements. And this is part of a
- 24:24Speaker 8: crumbling infrastructure and failure. The leader, the leadership all the
- 24:29Speaker 8: way down. I'm talking to military. This is military leadership failure. Okay,
- 24:34Speaker 8: fair enough.
- 24:35Speaker 2: I can't I can't come up with anything to argue
- 24:37Speaker 2: with you about that one.
- 24:39Speaker 1: Yeah, there were.
- 24:39Speaker 2: It's a real wake up call in connection with this war,
- 24:41Speaker 2: with with well the multiple wars that are going on,
- 24:45Speaker 2: with everyone turning and looking to the United States for
- 24:47Speaker 2: assistance with weapons, and lots and lots of reporting out there.
- 24:54Speaker 2: You can choose not to believe it or not, but
- 24:55Speaker 2: we seem to be running law on valuable important weapons systems,
- 25:00Speaker 2: and the world's a big place and lots of challenges
- 25:02Speaker 2: out there that we face. Let's se what Tom's got
- 25:04Speaker 2: this morning. Tom, Welcome to the Morning Show. Thanks for
- 25:05Speaker 2: holding sirt.
- 25:07Speaker 5: Hey, hey, good morning. You're a couple of callers here
- 25:11Speaker 5: talking about stuff they have on their medical bills that
- 25:14Speaker 5: doesn't seem right. My wife's got something that doesn't involve Medicare,
- 25:19Speaker 5: but it does involve our church company. And we could do,
- 25:23Speaker 5: like you said, very easily since we don't know anything.
- 25:26Speaker 5: Our amount that is due from us as zero. But
- 25:29Speaker 5: they're they're sending us, you know, these explanation of benefits
- 25:33Speaker 5: and they show what was paid what right, And she
- 25:35Speaker 5: noticed she noticed a particular procedure that she knows for
- 25:39Speaker 5: a fact she didn't she didn't do and maybe it's
- 25:43Speaker 5: not that much. You can probably tell yourself, not my problem.
- 25:46Speaker 5: They're not charging me, uh yeah, but they're charging your
- 25:49Speaker 5: insurance company. And why do you think what do you
- 25:51Speaker 5: think is a bigger reason the rates of your insurance
- 25:53Speaker 5: company or.
- 25:54Speaker 8: What they are.
- 25:56Speaker 5: You know, maybe your little procedure may not make that
- 25:59Speaker 5: big of a difference in the long run.
- 26:02Speaker 8: Get reported.
- 26:03Speaker 5: Yeah, at them all up, and that's that, you know,
- 26:05Speaker 5: that's part of the plan. There is so many people
- 26:08Speaker 5: and there is so much money flowing around out there,
- 26:12Speaker 5: you know, greatest country in the world because we are
- 26:14Speaker 5: the wealthiest country and all that. Yeah, that's a lot
- 26:17Speaker 5: of money change in hand. There's a big pot of
- 26:20Speaker 5: money for people to dip their grubby little positans in.
- 26:23Speaker 1: Yep.
- 26:23Speaker 5: And that's exactly what they're doing. They can't they can't
- 26:26Speaker 5: stop themselves. Look at all this money. They're not going
- 26:28Speaker 5: to miss this. They're not going to miss that. In fact,
- 26:30Speaker 5: they don't. People don't care. People just don't bother with it.
- 26:33Speaker 5: My wife is calling every pair of person she can
- 26:35Speaker 5: think of and emailing everybody. You will take this off
- 26:39Speaker 5: of my uh you know, off my charge. I did
- 26:42Speaker 5: not undergo this procedure. I want to make sure it's fixed,
- 26:45Speaker 5: you know. And now a lot of people aren't no
- 26:47Speaker 5: want to bother, they don't want to take the trouble.
- 26:49Speaker 5: To deal with that, you have to. You got to
- 26:52Speaker 5: look at your bills, and I mean, if nothing else,
- 26:54Speaker 5: it's part of your medical history now that you have
- 26:57Speaker 5: this procedure. No, I didn't. Well there was a sayer
- 27:00Speaker 5: says you did. You didn't do anything about it two
- 27:02Speaker 5: or three years ago. Well, you know, so it's it's ridiculous.
- 27:07Speaker 5: Any polls you mentioned earlier, the polls, Yeah, I don't
- 27:10Speaker 5: believe poles. I don't trust poles. That's all they're out
- 27:14Speaker 5: there to do, really is to sway our opinion. Either
- 27:17Speaker 5: make us give up. That's usually what it is. Just
- 27:19Speaker 5: don't bother voting because this person's ahead by twenty points.
- 27:23Speaker 5: Don't believe it, don't buy it, don't let it stop
- 27:26Speaker 5: you from voting. Get out, get off your sorry duff,
- 27:30Speaker 5: and go vote and don't vote Democrats.
- 27:32Speaker 2: Well well stated Tom as always real quick here, I
- 27:37Speaker 2: got time for a stack. Here's this. This is full
- 27:41Speaker 2: on stack and stupid wheelhouse right here. Thank you, Josh

- 27:50Speaker 2: plea to a contraband smuggling charge, Monique meg Chiani, forty

- 29:28Speaker 2: forty six fifty five krsit talk station. Well that's what
- 29:30Speaker 2: the Stack of Stupid's also five fifty one fifty five
- 29:34Speaker 2: krsit talk station.
- 29:35Speaker 1: Happy Wednesday.
- 29:38Speaker 2: Back to the stack of stupid, and I'm looking forward
- 29:40Speaker 2: to seven to five The Big Picture with Jack Edan
- 29:42Speaker 2: in subject matter effing profanity close quote Jack, can't wait
- 29:48Speaker 2: to hear your comments on that, brother.
- 29:49Speaker 1: Anyway, with a stack of stube, we've got a register.
- 29:51Speaker 2: This is m I hate reading stuff like this because
- 29:54Speaker 2: it just it just creeps me out. So not only
- 29:57Speaker 2: a registered sex offender anyway. The guy arrested for a
- 30:00Speaker 2: allegedly recording children at a Boston waiting pool using sunglasses
- 30:05Speaker 2: with a camera installed on them. Yet, welcome to modern technology,
- 30:08Speaker 2: Dave Had. If you're out there, here we go. Multiple
- 30:11Speaker 2: witnesses reported this guy, this cree, this pervert, Mark Sullivan,
- 30:14Speaker 2: sixty years old, using his glasses and his phone in
- 30:19Speaker 2: recording children at the Boston Common Pool one Point. Police
- 30:22Speaker 2: alleged Sullivan use the glasses to record a family who
- 30:25Speaker 2: was attempting to change their children, who were wrapped in
- 30:27Speaker 2: a towel for privacy. Family sought to move away, Sullivan
- 30:33Speaker 2: followed them, scanning the children up and down with the
- 30:36Speaker 2: camera sunglasses. When witnesses confronted him, he attempted to break
- 30:41Speaker 2: the sunglasses with his hands. Fortunately, his glasses and phone
- 30:46Speaker 2: were seized by police. Sullivan arrested outside the rooming house
- 30:49Speaker 2: where he resides in Brockton, Boston suburb. He'd previously been
- 30:55Speaker 2: convicted in two thousand and one of multiple felony accounts
- 30:57Speaker 2: for purchase and possession of child porn and post or
- 31:00Speaker 2: exhibiting a child in a state of nudity or sexual conduct.
- 31:04Speaker 2: He is a Level three sex offender that suggests he has,
- 31:08Speaker 2: according to the judges, a high risk of reoffending and
- 31:11Speaker 2: who poses a high degree of danger to the public.
- 31:14Speaker 2: Clearly that was the case. Appropriately labeled that because obviously
- 31:18Speaker 2: scanning nude children in public places confirms is recidivism.
- 31:25Speaker 9: FERI is the biggest douche of the universe, in all
- 31:30Speaker 9: the galaxies.
- 31:31Speaker 1: There's no bigger.
- 31:32Speaker 10: Douche than you.
- 31:35Speaker 2: Yeah, you've reached the top, the pinnacle of douche.
- 31:38Speaker 11: Dum.
- 31:39Speaker 1: Good going doue. Your dreams have come true.
- 31:46Speaker 2: Welcome to America. Where we go to northern Massachusetts. We
- 31:49Speaker 2: have a town there and we have a viral outbreak online.
- 31:54Speaker 2: Lawrence Mayor, it's the city of Lawrence. Mayor Brian d'epina,
- 32:00Speaker 2: sixty one years old, arrested last Friday morning after an
- 32:03Speaker 2: investigation in WHO into his alleged misuse of more than
- 32:06Speaker 2: one point five million dollars of economic injury disaster LUNs.
- 32:10Speaker 2: It was a program administer by the US Small Business
- 32:13Speaker 2: Administration under the CARES Act to assist struggling businesses as
- 32:16Speaker 2: a consequence of the COVID nineteen pandemic. His lawyer, speaking
- 32:22Speaker 2: with reporters, had this to say about the mayor of
- 32:26Speaker 2: this Massachusetts town. Quote, he doesn't speak English.
- 32:30Speaker 1: No comment.
- 32:34Speaker 2: Of course, that went viral, that clip, lots of comments
- 32:37Speaker 2: out there. He doesn't speak English, no comments. As the
- 32:41Speaker 2: assistant of the mayor of an American city, and here's
- 32:46Speaker 2: one English fluency should be a basic prerequisite of holding
- 32:49Speaker 2: office that was common from some journalists. Yeah, I mean
- 32:52Speaker 2: for going around the United States of America cracking down
- 32:54Speaker 2: on semi tractor trailer drivers because they can't read the signs,
- 32:58Speaker 2: which I think is a good thing to do. Shouldn't
- 33:02Speaker 2: we have a basic language proficiency test for people who
- 33:05Speaker 2: are going to literally run cities. I imagine a lot
- 33:07Speaker 2: of reading involved in running a town in Massachusetts. Texas
- 33:13Speaker 2: Republican congressional candidate chiming in on this one, jace Yarborough quote,
- 33:17Speaker 2: this is what happens when we not only import the
- 33:20Speaker 2: third world, but we elect the third world. Why is
- 33:24Speaker 2: an unassimilated foreigner a mayor in America? Close quote Nice
- 33:27Speaker 2: rhetorical question there, jace Yarborough. If that wasn't bad enough. Apparently,
- 33:35Speaker 2: as a social media post showing the car that this
- 33:38Speaker 2: depenion guy left in crashing into another park car while
- 33:42Speaker 2: attempting to drive away, he was elected in November twenty
- 33:47Speaker 2: twenty one, run re election in November twenty twenty five.
- 33:54Speaker 1: Unbelievable.
- 33:55Speaker 2: Now, I obviously have you know a great amount of
- 33:58Speaker 2: skepticism that the statement he he doesn't speak English is
- 34:01Speaker 2: not accurate considering how long he's been around. However, that
- 34:05Speaker 2: was his lawyer speaking on his behalf. And of course
- 34:10Speaker 2: the background behind all of this is he's been arrested
- 34:16Speaker 2: and accused of fraud. Add that to the long and
- 34:20Speaker 2: ever growing list of elected officials bilking the American taxpayer
- 34:26Speaker 2: and using their job to gain advantage over US five
- 34:28Speaker 2: fifty six, fifty five krsite talk station six.
- 34:31Speaker 1: X six and fifty five kars DE talk station.
- 34:33Speaker 2: Brian Thomas wishing everyone a very happy Wednesday, and side note,
- 34:38Speaker 2: happy anniversary my friend Submariner Cribbage Mike Submariner Minke Cribbage.
- 34:44Speaker 2: Mike is celebrating his anniversary twenty first anniversary his beautiful

- 34:52Speaker 2: happy anniversary to you both. Uh five three seven, four

- 35:24Speaker 2: your emails. Definite intrusion into our privacy. More on privacy
- 35:28Speaker 2: in a moment, but let's go to the phones first. CJ,
- 35:30Speaker 2: thanks for calling this morning. Happy Wednesday to you.
- 35:33Speaker 12: Oh, thank you very much. You know, last night there
- 35:36Speaker 12: was a major earthquake with another DSA candidate, completely surprising
- 35:41Speaker 12: everybody in Florida and beating Vinment. But people who are
- 35:46Speaker 12: laughing and thinking these DSA candidates cannot win, there is
- 35:51Speaker 12: something brewing that is going to give them a lot
- 35:53Speaker 12: of fodder and it could become really really bad for
- 35:58Speaker 12: the economy as a whole. And it is so big
- 36:02Speaker 12: it could make Berdie made Off, Lehman Brothers and AIG
- 36:06Speaker 12: look like child's play. Because the Guggenheim Group maybe nothing
- 36:10Speaker 12: more than a big Ponzi scheme. As Australian and the
- 36:15Speaker 12: American dojs are looking into this thing.
- 36:19Speaker 8: And if the.
- 36:20Speaker 12: Owner of the Dodgers, if all these little life insurance
- 36:23Speaker 12: companies that he has been using money to move all
- 36:27Speaker 12: around for investors to make them look good. He has
- 36:30Speaker 12: seven billion dollars in loans that are due by December thirty. First,
- 36:34Speaker 12: he doesn't have the cash because they're all just floating
- 36:37Speaker 12: this money all around. It could lead to a tremendous
- 36:41Speaker 12: campaign issue for these DSA people. And that is how
- 36:45Speaker 12: socialism comes into a country, not because people are all
- 36:49Speaker 12: of a sudden super socialistic. It's that the corruption within
- 36:54Speaker 12: the market fixes itself and then it gives the DSA
- 36:59Speaker 12: people something to talk about because people are hurting, and
- 37:03Speaker 12: then people don't always make the whites decisions when they're hurting. Well,
- 37:07Speaker 12: does this this Mark Warner and Guggenheim Group issue is
- 37:11Speaker 12: going to be a monster issue.
- 37:12Speaker 11: And it's super complicated.
- 37:14Speaker 1: Isn't that one of those never let a good crisis
- 37:16Speaker 1: go to waste kind of moment? Cj Oh.
- 37:19Speaker 12: It is it And if you the more I read
- 37:22Speaker 12: about this thing, it could make two thousand and eight
- 37:25Speaker 12: look easy from an economic standpoint. The Guggenheim Group of
- 37:30Speaker 12: our insurance companies, there were three hundred and fifty billion
- 37:34Speaker 12: dollars and that's why they had to sell the Lakers
- 37:37Speaker 12: because they needed some money to pay off another cash
- 37:40Speaker 12: loan a year after they did it. They also own
- 37:43Speaker 12: the Chelsea Soccer Club in England, one of the richest
- 37:48Speaker 12: teams in all of sports there. They had to place
- 37:51Speaker 12: them on cel last week and they got one point
- 37:54Speaker 12: one billion dollars just in contracts to Los Angeles Dodgers
- 37:59Speaker 12: players in twenty which are probably all paid through these
- 38:02Speaker 12: annuities that they're selling themselves and just moving cash around.
- 38:06Speaker 12: It could be really, really disastrous.
- 38:10Speaker 8: And.
- 38:12Speaker 12: It is going to play into the socialist dream of
- 38:16Speaker 12: being able to retain power because people are gonna be hurt.
- 38:21Speaker 12: They you know, there's only one way you don't get
- 38:24Speaker 12: your life insurance money back, and that's if the life
- 38:26Speaker 12: insurance companies go broke, and that is what this could happen.
- 38:30Speaker 2: Wow, well, I'll have to do a little bit more
- 38:32Speaker 2: research on the background on that one. But yeah, it's
- 38:34Speaker 2: the old crisis thing. And you know, going back to
- 38:36Speaker 2: the article I read the other day Jonathan Turley, it's
- 38:40Speaker 2: every crisis that happens, you know, springs quite often from
- 38:44Speaker 2: something some governmental proposals, some government social program, et cetera,
- 38:49Speaker 2: or some you know disaster, you know, like Obamacare. What
- 38:52Speaker 2: are the Democrats Socialist America running around promising Medicare for all,
- 38:56Speaker 2: Medicare for all on the heels of all this Medicare fraud. Yeah,
- 38:59Speaker 2: what we need is another opportunity for more fraud. But
- 39:01Speaker 2: moving away from that Medicare for all, Why, well, Obamacare
- 39:03Speaker 2: didn't work out. Obamacare was supposed to save all of us.
- 39:07Speaker 2: You know, lower twenty five hundred dollars savings, keep your doctor,
- 39:10Speaker 2: keep your insurance. It's all going to be great. Everybody's
- 39:12Speaker 2: going to be It's rainbows, pubbly dogs and unicorns. No,
- 39:15Speaker 2: it didn't work out. That's a crisis. Obamacare is failing miserably.
- 39:19Speaker 2: It's become the insurer of last resort for everybody with
- 39:22Speaker 2: a pre existing condition. So all they're doing is paying
- 39:24Speaker 2: out claims. That's what forces premiums to go up. That's
- 39:27Speaker 2: causes the deductible to go up. It's twelve thousand dollars
- 39:30Speaker 2: next year. What do we need to do from that crisis?
- 39:33Speaker 2: We need to do that for everyone, Medicare for all,
- 39:36Speaker 2: and then the government will have to pick and choose
- 39:38Speaker 2: what type of treatments that you will be allowed to have.
- 39:41Speaker 2: Look at the other socialist. You know universal health care
- 39:44Speaker 2: programs that are out in the world. You know some
- 39:45Speaker 2: places they won't even authorize a PSA test prostate cancer.
- 39:50Speaker 2: Real problem for men out in the world. A statistically
- 39:52Speaker 2: large number of men get it. I think was the
- 39:54Speaker 2: UK health care system. They won't even order one, at
- 39:57Speaker 2: least in many cases, they won't give you the discussion
- 40:00Speaker 2: to actually get a PSA test. It's not even a
- 40:03Speaker 2: very expensive procedure. But you see allocation of medical resources.
- 40:07Speaker 2: Her government will be the one saying yes or no,
- 40:09Speaker 2: as opposed to well, your doctor and currently your insurance company,
- 40:12Speaker 2: which has to pay claims that are covered under the
- 40:15Speaker 2: terms of the policy. Paula, hold on because Bobby's next. Bobby,
- 40:19Speaker 2: welcome to the show.
- 40:19Speaker 3: Happy Wednesday, Well, happy humpday, my friend, face flying family,
- 40:24Speaker 3: and be careful where you drive in the city.
- 40:27Speaker 1: And Frosty, which is the way you need to stay Frosty.
- 40:31Speaker 11: That's right. Well, we had another shooting I guess today
- 40:35Speaker 11: and Clifton, eleven year old boy is happening.
- 40:38Speaker 2: Every day, my friend, How does an eleven year old
- 40:42Speaker 2: get shot?
- 40:43Speaker 1: That is just sad.
- 40:45Speaker 2: I mean, I understand accidental home discharge thing you know,
- 40:48Speaker 2: people leaving firearms carelessly laying around. You know, accidents are accidents,
- 40:53Speaker 2: But let me get is this like a drive by
- 40:54Speaker 2: thing or did that was the eleven year old the
- 40:56Speaker 2: target of the bullet?
- 41:00Speaker 11: I tell you, I'd like to know what percentage Cincinnati
- 41:03Speaker 11: Police Department solved their shootings. And I still see the
- 41:06Speaker 11: picture in the back of my mind that poor lady
- 41:09Speaker 11: that had three children going to work got shot down
- 41:12Speaker 11: nowhere ring here months ago and showed the person that
- 41:15Speaker 11: they thought was the possible sailing and you never hear
- 41:19Speaker 11: anything more about it. I mean, what is the rate
- 41:22Speaker 11: at solving these these shootings and murders? Is it just
- 41:26Speaker 11: carry on every day? And every week we got a handicamp.
- 41:29Speaker 11: I mean we're between six and ten people getting shot
- 41:32Speaker 11: every weekend.
- 41:33Speaker 2: Yeah, And you know your comment, your speculative comment there
- 41:36Speaker 2: about how many open cases are there, and you're right,
- 41:40Speaker 2: every single week, the number of attempted murders, shootings, murders,
- 41:45Speaker 2: whatever happens to be, the amount of crime every single
- 41:47Speaker 2: one of those unless they got the suspect right there
- 41:50Speaker 2: or right away, require investigation, interviews and all the stuff
- 41:54Speaker 2: that goes into a successful prosecution of a criminal. It's
- 41:57Speaker 2: a lot of work lot and it builds, and it builds.
- 42:01Speaker 2: Every open case you got, you got five more coming
- 42:04Speaker 2: your way the next day or the next week because
- 42:06Speaker 2: of all the shootings and the crime that's been committed.
- 42:08Speaker 2: I honestly, Bobby, do not have any idea of how
- 42:11Speaker 2: they stay on top of it. And God bless each everyone.
- 42:13Speaker 2: To you, it's just well, go ahead.
- 42:16Speaker 11: It's terrible.
- 42:17Speaker 3: Well it is, you know, when you have all this
- 42:19Speaker 3: going on and you always hear about where they want
- 42:22Speaker 3: to defund the police. They've been defunding the police for years.
- 42:25Speaker 3: When you have a thirty percent more people that are
- 42:28Speaker 3: needed on the course, where's the money going that they
- 42:30Speaker 3: allocated for the police department. Where's that thirty percent of
- 42:34Speaker 3: the money every year where they do send it out
- 42:35Speaker 3: and loan people money projects and things.
- 42:38Speaker 2: Where is it at non non governmental organization. There are
- 42:41Speaker 2: counselors out there coming the streets to provide non violent
- 42:45Speaker 2: intervention and negotiate and do things that are in a
- 42:49Speaker 2: soft touch approach to crime. That's the way of the future.
- 42:52Speaker 2: We don't need police with guns. We just need you know,
- 42:54Speaker 2: community activists out there reaching out to the people and
- 42:57Speaker 2: building bridges you know, use the catchphrases. It sounds really good.
- 43:02Speaker 2: Try to dive on into the details of how that's
- 43:04Speaker 2: going to work out. Usually doesn't work out the way
- 43:06Speaker 2: they promise. Bobby, it's a great question. I will see
- 43:09Speaker 2: if we can't find someone in law enforcement who can
- 43:11Speaker 2: give us an idea how many open cases there are,
- 43:12Speaker 2: because I have a feeling it is a huge, huge amount, Paul,
- 43:17Speaker 2: if you don't mind holding, it is the end of
- 43:18Speaker 2: the segment here at six fifteen. I would love to
- 43:20Speaker 2: hear from you, but I've got to take a quick
- 43:22Speaker 2: break here because i want to strongly encourage you as well.
- 43:25Speaker 1: The talk station at six twenty fifty five KRCD Talk station.
- 43:29Speaker 2: Happy Wednesday, next listener, lunch the turf Club and looking
- 43:35Speaker 2: forward to that turf club. They're going to open force
- 43:37Speaker 2: on a Wednesday. Without further ado, Apollo is kind enough
- 43:39Speaker 2: to hold over the break there, Paul, Thanks for holding,
- 43:41Speaker 2: and welcome to the show.
- 43:44Speaker 4: Hello.
- 43:44Speaker 13: I had to call because of that medicry issue. I
- 43:49Speaker 13: have been receiving fifteen to twenty phone calls per day
- 43:55Speaker 13: for the last two months because I responded to one
- 43:59Speaker 13: of the cute little ads on TV about getting more
- 44:04Speaker 13: benefits that you don't even know about. Okay, I've gotten
- 44:09Speaker 13: very adept at speaking with AI and I've blocked them
- 44:15Speaker 13: at every move, but they will not understand the word no,
- 44:23Speaker 13: So the phone calls continue.
- 44:27Speaker 2: So is a simple response with television. And that led
- 44:31Speaker 2: to this.
- 44:32Speaker 13: Yes, and I had a friend that I was taking
- 44:37Speaker 13: care of last year she had the same thing happen,
- 44:42Speaker 13: and lo and behold, she talked to an FBI agent
- 44:47Speaker 13: through the same telephone AI contacts.
- 44:54Speaker 14: Who told her.
- 44:56Speaker 13: Her checking account had been up and she needed to
- 45:03Speaker 13: go out and get debit cards to empty her bank account.
- 45:07Speaker 13: And love behold, the agent called back and took all
- 45:12Speaker 13: the numbers down before we knew what was going on.
- 45:17Speaker 13: And of course it wasn't an.
- 45:19Speaker 1: FBI agent, clearly not.
- 45:22Speaker 13: Yes, and she was eighty six.
- 45:25Speaker 2: I was waiting, as a matter of fact, Paul, That's
- 45:27Speaker 2: exactly what I was going to ask, because you know,
- 45:29Speaker 2: these are the kind of things I this kind of
- 45:31Speaker 2: thing I worry about with my mom. You know, technology
- 45:34Speaker 2: is moving past I mean, technology.
- 45:35Speaker 1: Has moved beyond me.
- 45:36Speaker 2: It's moved beyond beyond the senior citizens out there, and
- 45:39Speaker 2: quite you know, my mom's computer has been infected and
- 45:41Speaker 2: hacked before, and I just worry about seniors out there,
- 45:45Speaker 2: And you know, you hope and you think, and you
- 45:46Speaker 2: go into something with a with a presumption of trust
- 45:49Speaker 2: because you know, you came from an era where most
- 45:52Speaker 2: people were trustworthy and honest, and so you go in
- 45:55Speaker 2: with an open mind and a belief in honesty and
- 45:57Speaker 2: decency in the world. To find out that no, that
- 45:59Speaker 2: seems to have left the building the whole concept of
- 46:01Speaker 2: honesty and decency. So you have to live your life
- 46:03Speaker 2: with a completely jaded and cynical attitude. Yeah, I'm not sure. Well,
- 46:08Speaker 2: I wish I could solve your phone call problem. I
- 46:10Speaker 2: just don't answer them. That's how I deal with spam
- 46:12Speaker 2: emails and phone calls.
- 46:13Speaker 3: Now.
- 46:14Speaker 13: That is where I am now. But the thing is,
- 46:18Speaker 13: there is a three step process. It's initiated with AI.
- 46:23Speaker 13: Then you actually get a real person who does all
- 46:28Speaker 13: the conversational catch stuff to get you emotionally invested in
- 46:36Speaker 13: the stupid conversation. And then the amazing part is they
- 46:42Speaker 13: transfer you to a Medicare agent, which sounds legit.
- 46:47Speaker 1: Sounds legit.
- 46:49Speaker 2: That's the whole I mean, the springboard from all this
- 46:51Speaker 2: is that the initial phone number, the initial contact was
- 46:55Speaker 2: a fraudster?
- 46:56Speaker 1: Right?
- 46:58Speaker 13: It was AI?
- 46:59Speaker 1: Well you say automated, you say a I.
- 47:03Speaker 2: I mean, I guess I'm struggling with what form of
- 47:05Speaker 2: AI you're you're talking about. Did you receive a text
- 47:08Speaker 2: or an email or was it you know, a search
- 47:10Speaker 2: that you did using artificial intelligence which gave you the information?
- 47:13Speaker 1: What?
- 47:13Speaker 3: What?
- 47:14Speaker 1: What? What? What do you mean when you just say
- 47:15Speaker 1: it was.
- 47:15Speaker 13: A I the first phone call I made directly and
- 47:22Speaker 13: from there on.
- 47:23Speaker 2: Okay, okay, there's there's the information. How did you get
- 47:27Speaker 2: the number that you called initially that turned out to
- 47:30Speaker 2: be a fraudster?
- 47:31Speaker 1: What? Who gave you that?
- 47:34Speaker 13: This? That was the television commercial? Everybody has seen it,
- 47:40Speaker 13: But the puce of it is from there I got
- 47:46Speaker 13: into an AI system which would dial multiple numbers, multiple
- 47:54Speaker 13: different numbers. My phone would be read from incoming calls.
- 47:59Speaker 2: Jeez, well you got hijacked. I guess at some point
- 48:04Speaker 2: along the line you got you got shifted over, a
- 48:06Speaker 2: hijacked by a frauds or it sounds I mean, it's impossible,
- 48:09Speaker 2: you know, to determine definitively, but maybe the original number
- 48:12Speaker 2: you called then you got hijacked by a fraudster and
- 48:15Speaker 2: you know. The only parallel I can draw that is
- 48:17Speaker 2: that happened to me online. I needed a software upgrade
- 48:19Speaker 2: for a piece of software I had, and it was
- 48:21Speaker 2: I thought was a legitimate site to start with. Actually
- 48:24Speaker 2: it was. But somewhere along the line, a pop up
- 48:27Speaker 2: showed up, which I thought was affiliated with the original
- 48:30Speaker 2: legitimate site for the upgrade. That was a fraudster. So
- 48:34Speaker 2: my interaction with the original appropriate, you know, authorized company
- 48:38Speaker 2: was hijacked by a pop up fraudster AD So I
- 48:42Speaker 2: stopped the whole process as I finally realized I was
- 48:44Speaker 2: getting as being a victim of fraud. I just you know,
- 48:47Speaker 2: I was on the phone with these guys. I unplugged
- 48:49Speaker 2: my Internet. That's how I deal with it. He said,
- 48:52Speaker 2: you can, well, we're we're busy working on your computer
- 48:55Speaker 2: right now. I said, no, you're not. I said, I
- 48:57Speaker 2: turned off my Internet and then was silence, deafening silence
- 49:01Speaker 2: on the other end of the phone.
- 49:02Speaker 1: I said, have a good day. Hung up.
- 49:03Speaker 2: So yeah, at some point, hijack it happens all the time.
- 49:06Speaker 2: You've got to be so damn careful these days, and
- 49:11Speaker 2: having a basic understanding of all that. I think a
- 49:13Speaker 2: lot of people lack that kind of understanding leading to well,
- 49:17Speaker 2: that situation you mentioned with your relative there scary stuff.
- 49:20Speaker 2: That's why I say Tech Friday with Dave Hatter his
- 49:22Speaker 2: appointment listening. He does his best to keep us out
- 49:24Speaker 2: of trouble.
- 49:26Speaker 1: The talk station six thirty one at fifty five KR.
- 49:36Speaker 2: See the talk station. It's got a little more than
- 49:39Speaker 2: a half hour. Await the Big Picture with Jack added
- 49:41Speaker 2: and after the top of the hour News one hour
- 49:43Speaker 2: for Now Donovan, the Americans for prosperity without phone calls,
- 49:46Speaker 2: which I currently am without. Feel free to show us
- 49:49Speaker 2: to change that reality. Five one three seven nine fifty
- 49:51Speaker 2: five hundred eight hundred eight two three talk. I do
- 49:53Speaker 2: have local stories, and here's one Bobby was talking about
- 49:55Speaker 2: the eleven year old. Police are still investigating the eleven
- 49:59Speaker 2: year old that got shot last evening on Warsaw Avenue.
- 50:03Speaker 2: SWAT units reported in the area of the law enforcement
- 50:06Speaker 2: officers since Aint Police Sergeant Anthony Mitchell said during a
- 50:09Speaker 2: press conference that the victim was found with a gunshot wound.
- 50:15Speaker 2: Emergency crews responded to the thirty seven block of Warsaw Avenue.
- 50:18Speaker 2: CPR was reportedly being performed on the victim. No additional details.
- 50:21Speaker 2: I'm relying on CPO for that one. So you know, prayers.
- 50:27Speaker 2: Just eleven year old. Just hard to believe, isn't it.
- 50:30Speaker 2: Court documents show a man shot his sixty five year
- 50:34Speaker 2: old mom about four or five times with a semi
- 50:36Speaker 2: automatic handgun. This happened Mason on Monday night. Jarrett Buttray
- 50:44Speaker 2: booked in the Warren County jail about eleven thirty pm
- 50:47Speaker 2: on charges of flonius assault and causing harm to an animal.
- 50:51Speaker 2: Being held on a three hundred thousand dollars bond. That's
- 50:54Speaker 2: what you get in Warren County. He'd probably be free
- 50:55Speaker 2: on unrecognizance if it was Hamilton County. Mason police responded
- 50:59Speaker 2: to domestic violence situation on Windward Drive about seven thirty
- 51:02Speaker 2: pm Monday. He said they found a woman now identified
- 51:04Speaker 2: as his mom, shot as well as a man barricaded inside.
- 51:09Speaker 2: She was taken to UC Westchester Hospital while Warren County
- 51:13Speaker 2: Tactical Response Team the SWAT team arrived and began to
- 51:15Speaker 2: negotiate with a suspect. According to Police Chief Levi Wells,
- 51:19Speaker 2: he was taken into custody after hours of negotiation without
- 51:22Speaker 2: further incident. According to the Chief's comments, and of course
- 51:25Speaker 2: Mason police relate and remained on the scene for hours
- 51:27Speaker 2: doing an investigation. Chief said he couldn't confirm what led
- 51:31Speaker 2: to the shooting, also unable to provide details on the
- 51:34Speaker 2: woman's condition, so hopefully she will fully recover. You imagine
- 51:40Speaker 2: shooting your own mom. Story started out with this morning,
- 51:44Speaker 2: fraud is everywhere. Hey, we need to have more government
- 51:47Speaker 2: programs that we can build for fraud, just like el
- 51:50Speaker 2: Zarbebel did here in Ohio. He pled guilty to his
- 51:53Speaker 2: involvement with the US Department of Justice in what US
- 51:56Speaker 2: Department of Justice is calling the largest healthcare fraud ever.
- 51:59Speaker 1: Process acuted.
- 52:02Speaker 2: Forty five year old eldar z Arbravel. He's from Pepper Pike, Ohio,
- 52:05Speaker 2: apparently lounder three point four million dollars in illicit healthcare
- 52:08Speaker 2: fraud proceeds through multiple banks. Court to the Justice Department,
- 52:13Speaker 2: the fraud proceeds were partially susceptible to laundering because they
- 52:16Speaker 2: originated from what they describe are legitimate sources Medicare and
- 52:20Speaker 2: established private insurance carriers, which gave the funds an initial
- 52:24Speaker 2: appearance of legitimacy. The fraud scheme was based in Russia
- 52:28Speaker 2: as well as other countries. When I think about the
- 52:31Speaker 2: idea that we have these foreign powers that do not
- 52:33Speaker 2: like us and want to do harm to us, and
- 52:35Speaker 2: all the resources they have, and apparently all the massive
- 52:38Speaker 2: holes in our various government programs, and this is one
- 52:44Speaker 2: that they found. It's like drugs on the border. Ah,
- 52:47Speaker 2: we sees two tons of cocaine. Yeah, but what about
- 52:49Speaker 2: all the other drugs that got in the it didn't seize.
- 52:51Speaker 2: It makes one kind of go I wonder anyway. The
- 52:54Speaker 2: organization used false sale documentation and corporate registration documents, which
- 53:00Speaker 2: documentation falsely reflected that the nominee owners maintain beneficial ownership
- 53:05Speaker 2: and control of various fraudulent durable medical equipment companies, disguised
- 53:10Speaker 2: the true beneficial ownership and control of companies and the
- 53:12Speaker 2: financial accounts. Upon opening the financial accounts that will be
- 53:16Speaker 2: bank accounts, organization funneled fraud proceeds from Medicare and notle
- 53:19Speaker 2: legitimate healthcare insurance into the accounts as seemingly clean money.
- 53:24Speaker 2: Here's the fun figure, folks. Two calendar years between July
- 53:27Speaker 2: twenty second and July twenty twenty four, the organization submitted
- 53:34Speaker 2: one point four to two billion in false and fraudulent
- 53:38Speaker 2: claims to Medicare and other health insurers through this fraudulent
- 53:41Speaker 2: and durable medical equipment company. Just two years. He pleaded
- 53:47Speaker 2: guilty to only one count of money laundering, schedule to
- 53:49Speaker 2: be sentenced December sixteenth, facing a maximum penalty of twenty
- 53:53Speaker 2: years in prison. Twenty six thirty five fifty five Care

- 55:19Speaker 15: the coverage about the aircraft carry USS Abraham Lincoln at
- 55:23Speaker 15: the Pointy end of the sphere and full disclosure the
- 55:26Speaker 15: very next day I spend the board and aircraft carrier
- 55:29Speaker 15: will be my first. However, over the course of my
- 55:33Speaker 15: twenty nine year career, I have my share of deployments
- 55:35Speaker 15: under my belt, and deployments are totally different animal animals
- 55:39Speaker 15: than normal underway operations, and a deployment in a war
- 55:44Speaker 15: zone is an extremely unique situation. You know what few
- 55:49Speaker 15: creature conference we have aboard in a submarine, life get
- 55:53Speaker 15: taken away. On deployments. We have about the size of
- 55:55Speaker 15: two refrigerators that most restaurants would be a lot larger
- 56:00Speaker 15: than ours. We have a refrigerator or a freezer. We turn
- 56:02Speaker 15: that one refrigerator into a freezer. We have no fresh food,
- 56:07Speaker 15: We have no fresh milk. From the time we leave port,
- 56:09Speaker 15: it's all frozen. And then most of our vegetables are
- 56:12Speaker 15: can fruits and vegetables and juices. And once all the
- 56:15Speaker 15: stock rooms are full, which are very limited to say
- 56:18Speaker 15: the least, guess where they put them. They put them
- 56:20Speaker 15: on the deck a ten to twelve to fourteen inch
- 56:23Speaker 15: can that somebody already six foot four now as to
- 56:25Speaker 15: even more carefully maneuver their way throughout the submarine. And
- 56:29Speaker 15: when you have an end of your deployment date, that
- 56:31Speaker 15: means another submarine is coming to relieve you on station. Well,
- 56:35Speaker 15: if that some relieving submarine has mechanical problems or personnel
- 56:39Speaker 15: problems or whatever, you don't leave until the next one
- 56:42Speaker 15: shows up. So I can understand the difficulties that are
- 56:46Speaker 15: my shipmates aboard that carrier going through you know. However,
- 56:50Speaker 15: when they said one or a couple toilets might be
- 56:53Speaker 15: clogged and stuff like that on a thousand foot ship
- 56:56Speaker 15: with five thousand people, I think there's other ones so
- 56:58Speaker 15: and there's even questioned which toilets are actually even on
- 57:03Speaker 15: that ship. You know, the interview to commander and it's
- 57:06Speaker 15: a shame, but we've all been through it to where
- 57:08Speaker 15: he missed the birth of his child. But guess what
- 57:10Speaker 15: he was able to do. He was able to face
- 57:13Speaker 15: time in the delivery room. Now that's awful hard to
- 57:16Speaker 15: do on a submarine at six hundred feet. So I
- 57:18Speaker 15: empathize with my shipmates. I'm sure they're going through much
- 57:21Speaker 15: more difficulties than normal operations because they can't fly in
- 57:25Speaker 15: supplies because they're in a war zone. But when CNN
- 57:27Speaker 15: beat home the point that they have not been in
- 57:29Speaker 15: port for I think it's now two hundred and some days. Well,
- 57:33Speaker 15: when you've got a thousand foot keystone piece of your arsenal,
- 57:37Speaker 15: you don't want it tied up to a pier or
- 57:39Speaker 15: anchored off some port so the guys can go have
- 57:42Speaker 15: a few beers when there's drones all over the area.
- 57:45Speaker 15: And I can't help but think and I'm sure you'll agree.
- 57:47Speaker 15: If there was somebody else sitting in the Oval office,
- 57:49Speaker 15: this would not be the story that it is.
- 57:52Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with you completely on that. And you know,
- 57:55Speaker 2: I mean, I guess the sailors are told ahead of
- 57:59Speaker 2: time that you know, you could be deployed for god
- 58:02Speaker 2: knows how long. There is no guarantee that you're going
- 58:04Speaker 2: to have some sort of historically limited deployment. I mean,
- 58:07Speaker 2: you're this is the reality of signing up to serve
- 58:11Speaker 2: in the America's military. It's the ultimate crabsheet. You have
- 58:14Speaker 2: no idea what's in front of you. But insofar as
- 58:16Speaker 2: the sailors training to serve on the Lincoln, they knew
- 58:20Speaker 2: ahead of time that this was a possibility, right absolutely.
- 58:24Speaker 15: And there's been people that they actually come to the
- 58:27Speaker 15: end of their enlistment, well there's provisions for that. You
- 58:30Speaker 15: get basically operational holded. They can't get you know, a
- 58:33Speaker 15: personnel plane to get you back to the States. You know,
- 58:36Speaker 15: you stay there. And I'm sure during the course of
- 58:38Speaker 15: this there has been many a chief, senior chief or
- 58:41Speaker 15: master chief that has had a very difficult discussion with
- 58:44Speaker 15: his troops concerning operational security. You know, the fact that
- 58:48Speaker 15: a toilet is clogged, or the fact that we're out
- 58:50Speaker 15: of Hamburger's. Okay, no big deal. Yes it is a
- 58:53Speaker 15: big deal because more than one battle throughout history has
- 58:56Speaker 15: been lost if your adversary knows the capability of your
- 59:00Speaker 15: hardware or the morale of the troops.
- 59:04Speaker 2: Going back to the war of attrition that we're currently
- 59:06Speaker 2: involved with with the Iranians, right, Mike, absolutely.
- 59:10Speaker 15: And once again, if anything that unfortunately our Meeta can
- 59:13Speaker 15: do to stir the pot to turn the people back here,
- 59:18Speaker 15: the voting public against the war, who does that help
- 59:21Speaker 15: that helps the Iranians?
- 59:23Speaker 1: Well?
- 59:23Speaker 2: And can I ask you very quick question because I
- 59:25Speaker 2: know we're bumping up against time, Joe, so I know
- 59:27Speaker 2: the hairy eyeball's coming. But I got to ask Mike
- 59:29Speaker 2: in terms of the stress. You're on an aircraft carrier,
- 59:34Speaker 2: as you like to refer to any sort of ship.
- 59:36Speaker 2: They're targets for you in the submarine, but the target
- 59:39Speaker 2: you are there. The Iranians have drones literally everywhere. You
- 59:42Speaker 2: have minds beneath you potentially just going going to sleep
- 59:46Speaker 2: at night seeing to me, that might be a challenge
- 59:48Speaker 2: for a sailor, like is this the night the bomb's
- 59:50Speaker 2: going to hit? Is this the night that my ship
- 59:51Speaker 2: is going to be attacked? I mean, I don't know
- 59:54Speaker 2: how they manage that kind of stress. And welcome to
- 59:57Speaker 2: post traumatic stress realities when you get out of the military.
- 1:00:00Speaker 2: But did you ever do you ever have a concern
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: about that when you're in your submarine mic because that
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: would really bother me. Maybe that's why I couldn't serve.
- 1:00:06Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 1:00:08Speaker 15: Absolutely. And even though that that carrier, you know, on
- 1:00:11Speaker 15: TV you may see just that one shot of the
- 1:00:13Speaker 15: carrier carrier, but the carrier's never out there by itself.
- 1:00:16Speaker 15: I can guarantee there's at least two submarines there. It
- 1:00:19Speaker 15: has a blanket of friggas and frigates, destroyers and screws,
- 1:00:22Speaker 15: and cruisers as supply ships. But even what you hear
- 1:00:25Speaker 15: about if it's round the clock air operations, what I've
- 1:00:28Speaker 15: I've served with other people that have served on carriers,
- 1:00:31Speaker 15: If it's round the clock flight operations, you're not getting
- 1:00:34Speaker 15: a whole lot of sleep because of that constant takeoffs
- 1:00:36Speaker 15: and landings, you know. So once again, if you're already
- 1:00:39Speaker 15: come on watch for your next six hour rotation, you're
- 1:00:42Speaker 15: already fatigued. You hear about all these strikes and drones.
- 1:00:46Speaker 15: Absolutely that wears on you.
- 1:00:48Speaker 8: Yeez, And I get it.
- 1:00:49Speaker 15: Two hundred some days is a long time, you know,
- 1:00:51Speaker 15: and hopefully you know the George Washington is getting over
- 1:00:54Speaker 15: there and she can come home. And they did some
- 1:00:57Speaker 15: good downtime.
- 1:00:58Speaker 8: I have empathy.
- 1:00:59Speaker 15: But the way the met is handling this is incorrect.
- 1:01:03Speaker 2: Well, and that comes as no shock to really anybody
- 1:01:06Speaker 2: considering how unbelievably biased American media is. Mike, God bless you,
- 1:01:09Speaker 2: Thank you for your service to our country. In that submarine,
- 1:01:12Speaker 2: Mike was underwater six years his entire career military, six
- 1:01:17Speaker 2: full years underwater. I can't imagine six forty seven right now.
- 1:01:22Speaker 2: God bless the American service people. Two three talk It's
- 1:01:26Speaker 2: six forty seven right now. It's time for you to mentioned.
- 1:01:28Speaker 1: See the talk station.
- 1:01:31Speaker 2: Fifty five K see talk station Jack Avan with a
- 1:01:33Speaker 2: big picture coming up at the top of the our
- 1:01:35Speaker 2: news waiting in the wings.
- 1:01:36Speaker 14: He is.
- 1:01:36Speaker 2: In the meantime, he got a couple of callers online.
- 1:01:37Speaker 2: Let's start with Mike who called first. Mike, thanks for
- 1:01:39Speaker 2: calling today, Happy Wednesday.
- 1:01:42Speaker 16: Right now talking about the people about the US and Lincoln.
- 1:01:48Speaker 16: They're the military or the media shouldn't be putting us
- 1:01:52Speaker 16: out there in the first place. I mean, you'll tell
- 1:01:55Speaker 16: our enemies like, oh, they're our sailors are a bunch
- 1:01:58Speaker 16: of there they're fight.
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: Do you assume the media is patriotic?
- 1:02:05Speaker 2: I mean, if the media was patriotic, they wouldn't report
- 1:02:08Speaker 2: it because it wouldn't be in their best interest to
- 1:02:10Speaker 2: what I undermined the United States of America but.
- 1:02:16Speaker 16: Was out for over three hundred days when.
- 1:02:20Speaker 2: Yep, just depends on I guess whose ox is being
- 1:02:23Speaker 2: gorged along those lines. Yeah, I don't expect the American
- 1:02:25Speaker 2: mainstream media to be in any way, shape or form
- 1:02:27Speaker 2: patriotic or in any way shape or form supportive of
- 1:02:30Speaker 2: the Trump administration. If there's a target out there that
- 1:02:33Speaker 2: they can advance that it's going to harm Donald Trump
- 1:02:35Speaker 2: or the Republicans generally speaking, they're going to advance it. Jeff,
- 1:02:39Speaker 2: thanks for calling this morning in a very happy Wednesday
- 1:02:41Speaker 2: to you, sir.
- 1:02:44Speaker 5: Hey, good morning, bang Bo?
- 1:02:47Speaker 8: Was that good morning? Oh?
- 1:02:49Speaker 2: Good morning, Jeff? What's on your mind today?
- 1:02:52Speaker 7: Happy? Trying to figure out which restaurants the safest to
- 1:02:57Speaker 7: take my wife to for lunch and sure Bill even
- 1:03:02Speaker 7: dal Clifton.
- 1:03:07Speaker 2: You're talking about a cosmic crap shoot there, Jef. But
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: I would suggest, since I will defend Cincinnati generally speaking,
- 1:03:15Speaker 2: in spite of the problems we have with some crime
- 1:03:17Speaker 2: in some neighborhoods more often than others. Well, First Amendment rights,
- 1:03:23Speaker 2: I think more about the Second Amendment rights. Just don't
- 1:03:26Speaker 2: drink alcohol while you're at the lunch. But I think
- 1:03:29Speaker 2: it's safe to say fairlyas generally speaking that during the day,
- 1:03:33Speaker 2: during during daylight hours, I don't think you're necessarily going
- 1:03:37Speaker 2: to run a risk going out to lunch with your wife.
- 1:03:40Speaker 2: And I certainly support supporting local restaurants, which is the
- 1:03:43Speaker 2: point of listener lunch among others. Jeff, good luck, keep
- 1:03:46Speaker 2: your head down. I don't want to read about you
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: in the local stories tomorrow right.
- 1:03:52Speaker 1: Which neighborhood's the best?
- 1:03:54Speaker 8: You know?
- 1:03:54Speaker 2: And further to the point about post traumatic stress, because
- 1:03:56Speaker 2: I think September's Mental health Awareness month. You know, you
- 1:04:00Speaker 2: got the whole idea of you know, being in a
- 1:04:02Speaker 2: ship in the Strait of hormoz Or in that general area,
- 1:04:05Speaker 2: and the stress and the reality of drones bombing you
- 1:04:08Speaker 2: and minds blowing you up every single day working those
- 1:04:12Speaker 2: hard hours and all that all the time, that threat
- 1:04:15Speaker 2: never goes away, and the stress that that brings about.
- 1:04:17Speaker 2: You know, I've mentioned many times over the years the
- 1:04:20Speaker 2: most stressful job in the world, and it's another form
- 1:04:24Speaker 2: of military stress. You know, those guys that are around
- 1:04:26Speaker 2: kicking indoors in Fallujah fighting terrorists. You think about the
- 1:04:29Speaker 2: use of a firearm for your own personal safety, eminent
- 1:04:32Speaker 2: apprehension of grievous bodily harm or death. Someone is going
- 1:04:36Speaker 2: to kill you. That's what's going through your mind justifying
- 1:04:39Speaker 2: your use of defensive defensive use of a firearm. Now
- 1:04:42Speaker 2: put yourself in a position where that's happening to you
- 1:04:44Speaker 2: multiple times.
- 1:04:45Speaker 1: Every single day.
- 1:04:48Speaker 2: You kick a Dorian and you are expecting a guy
- 1:04:52Speaker 2: with an AK forty seven at minimum to start unloading
- 1:04:55Speaker 2: on you. A bomber may blow up I e. These
- 1:04:57Speaker 2: all over the place. You are never ever at far
- 1:05:01Speaker 2: away from the opportunity to get murdered, blown up, killed,
- 1:05:05Speaker 2: and some grievous bodily harm come to you. You wake
- 1:05:09Speaker 2: up to it, you go to sleep with it, and
- 1:05:10Speaker 2: I guess you have to sleep through. That's painful reality
- 1:05:13Speaker 2: all the time. God bless the men and women who
- 1:05:16Speaker 2: serve in America's military, the toughest job I think that
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: could possibly exist. Six fifty six right now, I fifty
- 1:05:22Speaker 2: five Karsite talk station. Jack added in waiting in the wings.
- 1:05:25Speaker 2: It's today the subject matter for the big radio just
- 1:05:45Speaker 2: sh I have seven zero six here if if you
- 1:05:47Speaker 2: five Karsite talk station Wednesday, and thank god we are
- 1:05:50Speaker 2: back to normal for all those listeners that reached out
- 1:05:52Speaker 2: to me and says, where in the heck is Jack?
- 1:05:53Speaker 2: Avid and Ben? We miss him? Welcome back. It's time
- 1:05:56Speaker 2: for the big picture, the return of Jack add and Jack.
- 1:05:58Speaker 2: I share their the sense of loss not having in
- 1:06:01Speaker 2: the program last couple of weeks.
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: It's good to have you back on man.
- 1:06:05Speaker 4: Thanks so much for having me back. Pal even with
- 1:06:07Speaker 4: means this week you finally lose your FCC licensees.
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: We're going to talk about.
- 1:06:16Speaker 4: Cover up the kid's ears. We're gonna talk about effing profanity.
- 1:06:21Speaker 4: Over the years, we've already discussed movies, music, art, even fashion,
- 1:06:27Speaker 4: all to show that the things we most despise about
- 1:06:31Speaker 4: Marxist politics bubble up from Marxist pop culture. Now. I
- 1:06:36Speaker 4: know these may be the least popular segments we do, Brian,
- 1:06:39Speaker 4: because it's not just Marxists. Most conservatives today also cherish
- 1:06:44Speaker 4: the pop culture they grew up with, because often it's
- 1:06:48Speaker 4: all they know. Old fogies and every age claim in
- 1:06:52Speaker 4: my day everything was better, Get off my lawn. Yet
- 1:06:57Speaker 4: without a shared cultural tradition to build, a culture tends
- 1:07:01Speaker 4: to degenerate. And as Andrew Breitbart always said, politics is
- 1:07:07Speaker 4: downstream of culture. We may fixate on winning the next election.
- 1:07:11Speaker 4: Once in a while. We may even try doing that
- 1:07:14Speaker 4: by advocating our founder's belief in America, the American idea
- 1:07:20Speaker 4: of God given individual rights, including free markets protected by
- 1:07:25Speaker 4: limited decentralized government. But do we explain that big idea
- 1:07:31Speaker 4: Brian as persuasively as our founders did.
- 1:07:34Speaker 11: No.
- 1:07:35Speaker 4: So this week let's talk about the way we talk
- 1:07:39Speaker 4: and if some people object, if you, well, that's my point.
- 1:07:44Speaker 4: A Cole Porter song notes good authors to who once
- 1:07:48Speaker 4: knew better words, now only use four letter words writing prose.
- 1:07:53Speaker 4: Anything Goes. That was ninety years ago, my friend. Not
- 1:07:58Speaker 4: long after Anything Goes debuted on Broadway. The most famous
- 1:08:01Speaker 4: line from Gone with the Wind almost had to be
- 1:08:04Speaker 4: cut because Hollywood's own sensors banned the word damn. Luckily,
- 1:08:11Speaker 4: they made exceptions for lines from recognized literary works, So
- 1:08:15Speaker 4: after some wrangling, Clark Cable did not have to say, frankly,
- 1:08:20Speaker 4: my dear, I don't give a darn. But fast forward
- 1:08:23Speaker 4: to a TV series. I love that we've discussed Brian
- 1:08:26Speaker 4: because it's about the only place you can hear a
- 1:08:28Speaker 4: defense of fossil fuels. Landmen a realistic about our need
- 1:08:33Speaker 4: for oil and natural gas. Yet Landmen also achieves present
- 1:08:39Speaker 4: day realism by making every other word of dialogue NF BOMBP.
- 1:08:45Speaker 4: When did we replace better words with four letter words?
- 1:08:48Speaker 4: And what does that tell us about popular culture and politics? Actually,
- 1:08:53Speaker 4: four letter words have been around an awfully long time,
- 1:08:56Speaker 4: from Roman comedy to Shakespeare. Plays that appealed to popular
- 1:09:01Speaker 4: taste featured sex, violence and cussing, until as audiences became
- 1:09:07Speaker 4: more refined, even priggish. A nineteenth century brother and sister
- 1:09:11Speaker 4: by the name of Bowdler came out with a sanitized
- 1:09:15Speaker 4: family Shakespeare. It didn't last that long ever. Since then, though,
- 1:09:19Speaker 4: the term bowdlerized means to clean up a vulgar text. However,
- 1:09:24Speaker 4: Victorian ideas about decency backfired. In search of realism and
- 1:09:29Speaker 4: social justice. Charles Dickens rightly portrayed thieves and prostitutes. The
- 1:09:34Speaker 4: revolt against gentility soon spread to all the arts at
- 1:09:39Speaker 4: the turn of the twentieth century. For example, Picasso's most
- 1:09:43Speaker 4: famous early painting also portrayed prostitutes, using the new Cubist
- 1:09:48Speaker 4: technique he and George Brock invented to show that you
- 1:09:52Speaker 4: had to look at reality from different angles to arrive
- 1:09:55Speaker 4: at the truth. Fair enough, it's a good point, But
- 1:09:59Speaker 4: just a few years later modern artists ditched the tradition,
- 1:10:03Speaker 4: going back to Michelangelo and all the way through Picasso,
- 1:10:06Speaker 4: that celebrated humanity, and they instead opted for absurdity for nonsense.
- 1:10:13Speaker 4: We've talked previously about the painter named Malevich. He put
- 1:10:17Speaker 4: a white square on a white canvas and called it
- 1:10:20Speaker 4: white on white. We've talked about Marcel Duchamp hanging a
- 1:10:24Speaker 4: urino in an art gallery and calling it fountain. Where
- 1:10:28Speaker 4: do you go from there? Toilet? Bowls would take music?
- 1:10:32Speaker 4: Mozart and Schubert led directly to what used to be
- 1:10:35Speaker 4: called the Great American songbook Cole Porter, Gershwin, Duke Allington.
- 1:10:41Speaker 4: There was plenty of room Brian in the songbook for
- 1:10:44Speaker 4: early rock, the product of Field Hollers, Blues and teenage rebellion.
- 1:10:49Speaker 4: But folks, am I alone in thinking A lot of
- 1:10:53Speaker 4: today's rock at rapp has devolved into a mind numbing
- 1:10:57Speaker 4: rhythm and shouting that's views obscenities. The risk with any
- 1:11:03Speaker 4: art form that reduces ourselves, that aims to throw out
- 1:11:08Speaker 4: every rule, is that soon it's not universal, it's just
- 1:11:12Speaker 4: reduced to the lowest common denominator. Now in politics, one
- 1:11:18Speaker 4: low point has to be Democrats recently actually coaching their
- 1:11:23Speaker 4: candidates to drop more F bombs than President Trump has
- 1:11:26Speaker 4: dropped on the Eyazola's when you can't think of anything
- 1:11:30Speaker 4: else to say, when you can't think, just scream F you,
- 1:11:35Speaker 4: or if your tongue tied, stick out a middle finger.
- 1:11:39Speaker 4: Better words help us think more clearly. Profanity reduces us
- 1:11:44Speaker 4: to something subhuman and un American. The best examples of
- 1:11:48Speaker 4: profound eloquence I can think of are America's founding documents
- 1:11:53Speaker 4: and our greatest speeches read aloud with your kids of grandkids,
- 1:11:57Speaker 4: Jefferson's Declaration of Independence, then Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, and John F.
- 1:12:03Speaker 4: Kennedy's inaugural address. Everybody remembers his most famous line, ask
- 1:12:08Speaker 4: not what your country can do for you? Ask what
- 1:12:11Speaker 4: you can do for your country. President Kennedy was an
- 1:12:15Speaker 4: old time Democrat. Today that's pure maga, along with JFK's
- 1:12:21Speaker 4: across the board tax cuts and peace through strength, defense spending,
- 1:12:25Speaker 4: and remember as well Kennedy's other line now the trumpet
- 1:12:29Speaker 4: summons us again, not as a call to bear arms,
- 1:12:32Speaker 4: though arms we need. Not as a call to battle,
- 1:12:36Speaker 4: though embattled we are, but a call to bear the
- 1:12:39Speaker 4: burden of a long twilight struggle against tyranny, poverty, disease,
- 1:12:46Speaker 4: and war itself. End quote. What didn't you hear, friends,
- 1:12:51Speaker 4: not one single F bomb in some I say clean
- 1:12:56Speaker 4: up our speech and will help clean up our country.
- 1:13:00Speaker 4: What are you saying? Please keep it clean?
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: Brother?
- 1:13:03Speaker 2: I agree with you all having day long there, Jack added,
- 1:13:06Speaker 2: And it's not seriously.
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: I you know, as listening to.
- 1:13:09Speaker 2: You and just sort of thinking about where we are
- 1:13:11Speaker 2: and sort of maybe this this, this infusion of Marxist ieteology,
- 1:13:14Speaker 2: which in I never thought I would see in my
- 1:13:16Speaker 2: lifetime being embraced by so many people. It's it seems
- 1:13:19Speaker 2: to me, in thinking about art and the clothing, that
- 1:13:23Speaker 2: you would talk about fashion issues over the cover of
- 1:13:26Speaker 2: several conscious conversations. Whatever is going on that is perceived
- 1:13:30Speaker 2: to be the norm, the status quo, what is generally accepted,
- 1:13:34Speaker 2: what is the shared cultural condition at any given moment
- 1:13:39Speaker 2: in history, people somehow or other feel the need to
- 1:13:43Speaker 2: rebel against it for whatever reason.
- 1:13:46Speaker 8: You know.
- 1:13:46Speaker 2: It's it's you'll see that in the art community all
- 1:13:49Speaker 2: the time, and it's like, there's no accepted just we're done.
- 1:13:52Speaker 2: We're gonna stick with this as a form. It's like, no,
- 1:13:55Speaker 2: there's got to be something different out there, and I'm
- 1:13:58Speaker 2: going to go after it, regardless of where it. Okay,
- 1:14:00Speaker 2: that's how you end up with an upside down crucifix
- 1:14:02Speaker 2: in a jar of urine and someone calling it art.
- 1:14:05Speaker 2: It offends, it's shocking, Oh my god, you know, and
- 1:14:08Speaker 2: people react that way, and then there's this media snowball
- 1:14:12Speaker 2: effect that goes on. Did you see what that person did?
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: Oh my god?
- 1:14:16Speaker 2: And then there's the outrage that ensues from some people,
- 1:14:19Speaker 2: and there's others that go out and defend it, and
- 1:14:21Speaker 2: people click on that and people write about it. It's,
- 1:14:23Speaker 2: you know, the building of celebrity or being noticed merely
- 1:14:27Speaker 2: because you have so far rebelled against whatever is the
- 1:14:30Speaker 2: cultural norm, It's going to get you noticed and that
- 1:14:34Speaker 2: seems to me, And that's what I've arrived at with
- 1:14:35Speaker 2: regard the use of the F bomb so much more frequently,
- 1:14:38Speaker 2: now that the F bomb is becoming a kind of
- 1:14:40Speaker 2: a regularly used word in all forms of conversation, it's
- 1:14:43Speaker 2: like the Brits are about ten years or more ahead
- 1:14:45Speaker 2: of us on that one, because you hear nothing but
- 1:14:47Speaker 2: that all the time over there. At least that was
- 1:14:49Speaker 2: my experience. But that seems to be it rebel just
- 1:14:53Speaker 2: for the sake of rebellion, rebel just because you want
- 1:14:56Speaker 2: to be that person, you want to get the attention
- 1:14:58Speaker 2: for being the fly and the ointment. I think there's
- 1:15:00Speaker 2: something to be said about that.
- 1:15:02Speaker 4: Yeah, this culture of outrage and victimhood, when people are
- 1:15:08Speaker 4: not victims, they are the luckiest people in the world.
- 1:15:10Speaker 4: It brings us down and it makes us easier to
- 1:15:14Speaker 4: be led. You have mentioned the democrats ludicrous coordinated attempts
- 1:15:19Speaker 4: to seem hip by cursing, though in fairness, for many
- 1:15:22Speaker 4: of them, profanity is not oppose. You remember when Barack
- 1:15:26Speaker 4: Obama signed Obamacare, Vice President Joe Biden, not yet senile,
- 1:15:31Speaker 4: whispered into the President's ear and right into a microphone.
- 1:15:34Speaker 4: This is a big thefin deal. But to be completely fair,
- 1:15:39Speaker 4: President Trump's natural way of speaking in public bristles with profanity,
- 1:15:45Speaker 4: as when you call some South American and African nations
- 1:15:49Speaker 4: excrement whole countries. I cleaned that up obscene insults, paving
- 1:15:54Speaker 4: the way for Trump's joking threats to annex hostile places
- 1:15:58Speaker 4: from Canada to Greenland, and illustraight of horror movies. Mister
- 1:16:02Speaker 4: Trump used to say, if he wanted, he could be
- 1:16:05Speaker 4: as presidential as honest Abe Lincoln, who did not curse. Meantime,
- 1:16:10Speaker 4: he and all of us might try emulating another president,
- 1:16:14Speaker 4: Teddy Roosevelt. Speak softly and carry a big stick.
- 1:16:21Speaker 1: I like that one.
- 1:16:22Speaker 2: And I did a quick search knowing in anticipation of
- 1:16:25Speaker 2: your topic, because I didn't know your subject matter was
- 1:16:27Speaker 2: effing profanity. Apparently, research shows that nearly ninety percent of
- 1:16:32Speaker 2: recorded US presidential profanity since nineteen nineteen happened in the
- 1:16:37Speaker 2: last decade. It's a downward, de evolutionary spiral war on
- 1:16:42Speaker 2: across all those subject matters, Jack Adidan.
- 1:16:45Speaker 4: It is, and we can reverse it. But as with
- 1:16:47Speaker 4: everything you and I talk about, it has to start
- 1:16:50Speaker 4: at home, and it has to start with us.
- 1:16:54Speaker 2: Jack, what would have been the outcome with you growing up?
- 1:16:56Speaker 2: And if you had cursed in front of your mom
- 1:16:58Speaker 2: along these lines.
- 1:17:02Speaker 4: My mom is listening right now. She's one of your
- 1:17:05Speaker 4: most loyal listeners, and I guarantee you she is not
- 1:17:08Speaker 4: yelling at a profanity. She's yelling now. I didn't raise
- 1:17:11Speaker 4: my son that.
- 1:17:12Speaker 2: Way, that's right, And I could still hear my dad's
- 1:17:14Speaker 2: voice about that kind of thing. You know, man, you
- 1:17:16Speaker 2: better not use that kind of any kind of language
- 1:17:18Speaker 2: in front of your mom. It was always being respectful,
- 1:17:21Speaker 2: and I grew up in a war with yes sir,
- 1:17:23Speaker 2: no sir, yes, ma'am. No, man, when's the last time
- 1:17:25Speaker 2: you heard that from anybody? In fact, every time I
- 1:17:27Speaker 2: hear a young person say it, and it's not very often,
- 1:17:30Speaker 2: I just I do a double take, like, oh my god.
- 1:17:34Speaker 4: You know, we talk about mom and that conjures up
- 1:17:37Speaker 4: in our minds an image of apple pie and apple
- 1:17:40Speaker 4: cheeked woman. How many generations have gone by since the
- 1:17:44Speaker 4: time we began using profanity as water coming out of
- 1:17:50Speaker 4: a fountain two minutes? Just you know, if your mom
- 1:17:54Speaker 4: spoke that way when she was young, and her mom
- 1:17:56Speaker 4: spoke that way when she was young, chances are you're
- 1:17:59Speaker 4: going to speak that way.
- 1:18:00Speaker 2: Oh that's true, and you see that leads me to
- 1:18:02Speaker 2: the point. We're just going to make exactly that point.
- 1:18:04Speaker 2: I heard a story. So it was a teacher who
- 1:18:07Speaker 2: I can't remember which school system, and I believe my
- 1:18:09Speaker 2: wife relaid this to me just the other day. Anybody
- 1:18:10Speaker 2: had a conversation with her. A child, a very young child,
- 1:18:14Speaker 2: element young elementary school age child cursed the teacher out,
- 1:18:19Speaker 2: and the teacher recoiled like I couldn't believe that this
- 1:18:22Speaker 2: young person was dropping some many curse words. And when
- 1:18:25Speaker 2: the administration was asked about what to do about it,
- 1:18:28Speaker 2: the reaction was pretty much boiled down to will just
- 1:18:30Speaker 2: let it go? And I think that's to your point.
- 1:18:33Speaker 2: You can't punish the child because the child grew up
- 1:18:35Speaker 2: in a home where those words are used regularly in
- 1:18:38Speaker 2: all forms of conversation. How is the child to know
- 1:18:40Speaker 2: what's appropriate and inappropriate if they haven't been raised to
- 1:18:43Speaker 2: know what a curse word actually is, that there is
- 1:18:46Speaker 2: such a such a thing as an outlier word that
- 1:18:48Speaker 2: you're not supposed to use, or.
- 1:18:50Speaker 4: Even if the parents don't speak that way, the child
- 1:18:53Speaker 4: becomes exposed to popular culture Rainsley and I. As you know,
- 1:18:56Speaker 4: tutor fourth graders, they're angels. I mean they're the same
- 1:18:59Speaker 4: kind of kids you would have seen one hundred years ago,
- 1:19:02Speaker 4: but then they step out into this world of pop culture.
- 1:19:06Speaker 2: Well, I would expect any parents who have the want
- 1:19:09Speaker 2: to serve their children's best interest and actually hire a
- 1:19:12Speaker 2: tutor or get them in front of a tutor probably
- 1:19:14Speaker 2: came from a pretty sound home anyway, where parents care
- 1:19:17Speaker 2: about and are concerned about the future of their children's education.
- 1:19:20Speaker 4: Now this is a local public school, Well, they're doing
- 1:19:24Speaker 4: the best they can. You know, nobody castigates the schools
- 1:19:26Speaker 4: more than I do when it comes to things like
- 1:19:28Speaker 4: using Howard's in history books and all the rest. They
- 1:19:32Speaker 4: do what they can. But you know, how do you
- 1:19:34Speaker 4: escape the world?
- 1:19:36Speaker 2: Good point, Jack, Avidan always making great points here in
- 1:19:39Speaker 2: this particular segment, which you call the Big Picture with
- 1:19:41Speaker 2: Jack Adan and Jack. I look forward to next Wednesday
- 1:19:43Speaker 2: and doing it again. I hope you and your better
- 1:19:44Speaker 2: half stay healthy and much love to both of you. Well,
- 1:19:48Speaker 2: have a great week, my friend Nage, how Trump saved America?
- 1:19:51Speaker 2: Judge and Polatana one hour from now on an Ice
- 1:19:53Speaker 2: wanting to read your email In the meantime, Donald and
- 1:19:55Speaker 2: Neil returns from Americans for prosperity. Go to AFP action
- 1:19:59Speaker 2: dot com. You get involved. We need everybody involved. Welcome back, Donod.
- 1:20:02Speaker 2: It's always a pleasure to have you on the program.
- 1:20:05Speaker 8: Brian.
- 1:20:05Speaker 5: It's a good morning.
- 1:20:06Speaker 14: The kids are off to school. Ah, drink the coffee
- 1:20:09Speaker 14: and teas for a little while.
- 1:20:10Speaker 2: Once again. There you go, exhale and enjoy the calm
- 1:20:12Speaker 2: and quiet. School will be out of session in a
- 1:20:15Speaker 2: moment's notice. And how quick time's flying these days. And
- 1:20:18Speaker 2: time is flying so quickly it'll be November before you
- 1:20:20Speaker 2: know it. And we've got a real problem on our hands.
- 1:20:24Speaker 2: I know, I just mentioned Todd Starn's book The Golden
- 1:20:27Speaker 2: Age how Trump saved America. But I mean, are things
- 1:20:30Speaker 2: so bad, donovan'eil, that we are really truly in this country?
- 1:20:33Speaker 2: Go to embrace the DSA agenda. We saw the Democrat
- 1:20:36Speaker 2: primary in Florida. A representative Angie Nixon, who is a
- 1:20:39Speaker 2: Democrat Socialist of America member best the opponent alex Vinman.
- 1:20:45Speaker 2: Vinman had massive cash advent I mean massive cash adventage
- 1:20:49Speaker 2: sixteen million to her less than a million spent. She
- 1:20:52Speaker 2: focused on social media and got the nod. Donovan O'Neil,
- 1:20:56Speaker 2: Let me just run down the insanity. Are things so
- 1:20:59Speaker 2: bad in America that we are going to embrace the
- 1:21:02Speaker 2: following Medicare for all?
- 1:21:04Speaker 1: Uh?
- 1:21:05Speaker 2: I mean, I'm going to read directly from the DSA agenda.
- 1:21:07Speaker 2: The military's police departments, disempowered police unions, redirect funding the
- 1:21:10Speaker 2: public services as steps toward fully abolishing the police and
- 1:21:14Speaker 2: prison system. These are their words, not mine. Defund the
- 1:21:16Speaker 2: Department of War and all foreign wars, and close overseas
- 1:21:19Speaker 2: military bases. Legalized migration, grant amnesty for all illegal immigrants,
- 1:21:24Speaker 2: regardless of status. Provide a path to citizenship for all
- 1:21:27Speaker 2: permanent residents and visa cabs in quotas. Replace the President
- 1:21:31Speaker 2: and Supreme Court with an executive and judiciary chosen by
- 1:21:34Speaker 2: and subordinate to Congress, and abolish the Senate. Seriously, we're
- 1:21:38Speaker 2: going to throw the constitution out. This is the direction
- 1:21:41Speaker 2: we're going, Donovan O'Neil. I think we need to vote.
- 1:21:45Speaker 11: We do need to vote.
- 1:21:46Speaker 14: And you know, those are extreme positions, but they are
- 1:21:49Speaker 14: quickly becoming mainstreams. Yeah, positions, you know, and these are
- 1:21:54Speaker 14: just fringe candidates winning, you know, Village council.
- 1:21:58Speaker 11: Or solicitor races.
- 1:21:59Speaker 14: These are real folks all the ballot for real, you know,
- 1:22:04Speaker 14: positions that have federal implications across the nation, and by
- 1:22:07Speaker 14: the way, are embraced by people already in Congress, folks
- 1:22:10Speaker 14: like Bernie Sanders, AOC and many others.
- 1:22:15Speaker 8: This is real.
- 1:22:16Speaker 14: But you know it's not too surprising to me, right
- 1:22:19Speaker 14: because the fact of the matter is, politicians for decades
- 1:22:23Speaker 14: have been centuries, have been promising free things. And when
- 1:22:27Speaker 14: folks are hurting, when there are real challenges in our communities,
- 1:22:32Speaker 14: the allure of you know, someone to come in and
- 1:22:36Speaker 14: solve all these problems. If you just, Brian, just yield
- 1:22:39Speaker 14: a little bit of your freedom, a little bit of
- 1:22:40Speaker 14: your liberty, these problems might go away. That's the scary thing,
- 1:22:45Speaker 14: right is these promises are being made, but the costs,
- 1:22:48Speaker 14: the impact that these promises that these politicians are making
- 1:22:54Speaker 14: isn't being fully fleshed out and explained. But we've got
- 1:22:57Speaker 14: proof points out there right North Korea, China, Russia, the
- 1:23:02Speaker 14: South American socialist economies. We've seen what that does to people.
- 1:23:07Speaker 14: Our challenge, Brian, is getting out there and pushing back
- 1:23:10Speaker 14: with the truth.
- 1:23:11Speaker 2: Well, and the truth includes simply the cost of these programs,
- 1:23:16Speaker 2: whether they're logical and reasonable or even gonna solve the
- 1:23:19Speaker 2: problems that they claim are going to be solved. Hey,
- 1:23:22Speaker 2: have you ever heard that before? We're gonna end poverty
- 1:23:24Speaker 2: in our lifetime? Said what was it, Lyndon Johnson? Yeah,
- 1:23:28Speaker 2: the Great Society programs, Donovan question. I know it's rhetorical.
- 1:23:32Speaker 2: Have we ended poverty in this country?
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: Right?
- 1:23:36Speaker 2: Every single time it's like, don't let a good crisis
- 1:23:39Speaker 2: go to waste. I know it's an off stated thing,
- 1:23:40Speaker 2: but it's the truth. There has never been a time
- 1:23:43Speaker 2: in the history of humanity where there hasn't been some
- 1:23:46Speaker 2: challenge that humanity face, and of course politicians are there
- 1:23:50Speaker 2: to exploit it, telling you your life is miserable because
- 1:23:53Speaker 2: of filling the blank. It's that guy, it's that group,
- 1:23:56Speaker 2: it's government policy, it's evil capitalist or whatever. We have
- 1:23:59Speaker 2: a to fix the problem, and those problems I don't
- 1:24:03Speaker 2: think at any time have ever gone away.
- 1:24:06Speaker 14: Never, No, no, And in fact, the reason we're in
- 1:24:09Speaker 14: the problems we're in today right can be directly traced back.
- 1:24:12Speaker 14: There's a through line to these policies going back to
- 1:24:16Speaker 14: London Johnson, going back to r when government grew and
- 1:24:21Speaker 14: expanded in monumental ways.
- 1:24:23Speaker 8: Right.
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: The reason our energy.
- 1:24:24Speaker 14: Prices are the way they are is in many parts
- 1:24:28Speaker 14: global conflicts in war, Ukraine and Iran. But at the
- 1:24:31Speaker 14: same time, we cut our own wrists here by abolishing
- 1:24:35Speaker 14: domestic energy production through green energy New Deal policies. Right,
- 1:24:38Speaker 14: we're going to shut down We've shut down coal plants,
- 1:24:41Speaker 14: oil plants, or oil power plants. We won't build nuclear
- 1:24:44Speaker 14: in this country.
- 1:24:45Speaker 11: Right.
- 1:24:46Speaker 14: We've harmed ourselves in that regard. You look at the
- 1:24:48Speaker 14: price of groceries, well, billions and trillions in new federal
- 1:24:52Speaker 14: spending under the last administration made the price that everything
- 1:24:56Speaker 14: go up to the point it's not coming back down, right,
- 1:25:00Speaker 14: But it's because of the inflationary policies of the prior
- 1:25:02Speaker 14: administration that we are where we are today on those
- 1:25:06Speaker 14: these policies.
- 1:25:08Speaker 1: Right.
- 1:25:08Speaker 14: The reason we're in a crisis on spending with social security,
- 1:25:11Speaker 14: right is because in medicated medicare all these other entitement programs.
- 1:25:15Speaker 14: Because we try to allow government to solve problems for
- 1:25:18Speaker 14: all people in all places without getting real about the
- 1:25:21Speaker 14: cost and impact and who we actually want to serve
- 1:25:25Speaker 14: and support. That the reason we're in the situation we're
- 1:25:29Speaker 14: in today is because we've allowed this slow creep to
- 1:25:32Speaker 14: socialism to permeate through our federal and state governments to
- 1:25:37Speaker 14: the point where broken as a nation if we don't
- 1:25:40Speaker 14: get back on the right track, and that right track
- 1:25:43Speaker 14: is the foundational principles this nation was started upon.
- 1:25:46Speaker 2: Yeah, and both parties are responsible for the forty trillion
- 1:25:49Speaker 2: dollars that we printed beyond what we took in, spending
- 1:25:52Speaker 2: beyond our means. Our government is notorious for that, and
- 1:25:55Speaker 2: of course we got to pay the freight on that.
- 1:25:57Speaker 2: But you know it's already bad that forty trillion dollars
- 1:26:00Speaker 2: as a result in north of a trillion dollars in
- 1:26:02Speaker 2: debt service annually, taking away valuable dollars from filling the
- 1:26:06Speaker 2: blank whatever program you think government should be funding. That's crazy.
- 1:26:10Speaker 2: But did we keep throwing more and more money at problems,
- 1:26:12Speaker 2: never solving any of them, and digging ourselves further in
- 1:26:15Speaker 2: a hole? Going back to the Cato Institute numbers, the
- 1:26:17Speaker 2: DSA platform would cost between seventy and two hundred trillion
- 1:26:21Speaker 2: dollars over ten years.
- 1:26:22Speaker 1: Donovan.
- 1:26:23Speaker 2: We can't print our way into that kind of prosperity,
- 1:26:25Speaker 2: can we?
- 1:26:28Speaker 14: Well, you know, I remember when they said if we
- 1:26:29Speaker 14: hit thirty trillion dollars, the nation's going to implode. We're
- 1:26:32Speaker 14: pushing forty trillion and somehow still not broken. I'm not
- 1:26:35Speaker 14: saying we're in a good place or we should do that,
- 1:26:37Speaker 14: but it's the craziness of where we are right we're
- 1:26:40Speaker 14: actually talking. We have real politicians running for real offices
- 1:26:44Speaker 14: that have a legitimate shot. If folks don't get engaged
- 1:26:47Speaker 14: and off the sidelines at being on the levers of
- 1:26:49Speaker 14: power in Washington, who will do just that and push
- 1:26:53Speaker 14: this country to the brink if we're not quite honestly
- 1:26:56Speaker 14: already there. We need more of that common sense, and
- 1:26:58Speaker 14: we need folks who are going to rain this government
- 1:27:00Speaker 14: in because it's it's quite frankly, it's hurting the American people.
- 1:27:04Speaker 14: It's why the American worker is in such such strife
- 1:27:07Speaker 14: right now.
- 1:27:07Speaker 2: Well, of course AFP Action is trying to get feed
- 1:27:09Speaker 2: people in my listening audience and elsewhere off the counts
- 1:27:11Speaker 2: to do the door knocking and have these types of conversations.
- 1:27:14Speaker 2: And my question is, is what we're talking about now
- 1:27:17Speaker 2: the type of you know, front porch knocking the door
- 1:27:19Speaker 2: kind of conversation you have out when you're knocking doors
- 1:27:22Speaker 2: in the world for AFP action.
- 1:27:24Speaker 14: I'll tell you what over the last few weeks that
- 1:27:26Speaker 14: has that certainly has picked up steam all interested after
- 1:27:30Speaker 14: Florida's results.
- 1:27:30Speaker 11: If we don't see more of.
- 1:27:31Speaker 14: It, but from Abdula Sae to Francesca hung in Wisconsin
- 1:27:35Speaker 14: to what my mom's doing every day to New York
- 1:27:39Speaker 14: that is getting into the electorate, that swing voter electorate
- 1:27:43Speaker 14: mind and they are talking with us about that. I
- 1:27:45Speaker 14: think we need to make sure to drive that message
- 1:27:47Speaker 14: home very clearly, because I think one it's a winning
- 1:27:50Speaker 14: political message, and because it's the winning political message right,
- 1:27:54Speaker 14: we have the opportunity to hold back against these extreme,
- 1:27:57Speaker 14: crazy ideologies that the DSA has brought me stream now.
- 1:28:00Speaker 2: So what it sounds like to me in your door
- 1:28:02Speaker 2: knocking efforts that people are just now really waking up
- 1:28:06Speaker 2: and starting to pay closer attention to this phenomenon going on.
- 1:28:09Speaker 2: I kind of been talking about because over the summertime,
- 1:28:11Speaker 2: you know, it's baseball season, it's vacation season, the kids
- 1:28:14Speaker 2: are home. People don't have time for politics generally speaking,
- 1:28:16Speaker 2: but even less so over the summer months. Kids are
- 1:28:18Speaker 2: back to school.
- 1:28:19Speaker 1: As you noted.
- 1:28:20Speaker 2: This is when people start paying closer attention, is it not?
- 1:28:24Speaker 8: It is?
- 1:28:25Speaker 5: And I'll tell you what.
- 1:28:25Speaker 14: That's the power of the door conversation, because you know
- 1:28:28Speaker 14: it's not the first thing at the door, right. I
- 1:28:29Speaker 14: don't knock a door and someone say, hey, these socialists
- 1:28:32Speaker 14: are out of control. Right, You've got to work it
- 1:28:34Speaker 14: out of a person. Right, You talk about, hey, what
- 1:28:36Speaker 14: do you care about? What issues are important to you?
- 1:28:38Speaker 14: And they'll laugh because they can tell I'm politically involved.
- 1:28:40Speaker 14: Our canvassers are politically involved to say, is this socialist
- 1:28:43Speaker 14: stuff I'm hearing.
- 1:28:44Speaker 8: About in New York?
- 1:28:44Speaker 14: Is this abdoulaw site really as socialists as they say is?
- 1:28:48Speaker 14: And you can have that conversation. So yeah, let me
- 1:28:50Speaker 14: show you the DSA website. Let me show you the
- 1:28:53Speaker 14: policies that these people espouse and support and say they're
- 1:28:56Speaker 14: committed to doing if they get elected. The threat is
- 1:28:59Speaker 14: real and we've got to get involved. And it moves people, Brian,
- 1:29:02Speaker 14: it truly does.
- 1:29:03Speaker 2: I am you regularly point that out and I am
- 1:29:06Speaker 2: hoping that message, your clear, very honest message, that it works,
- 1:29:10Speaker 2: that it is not a difficult, challenging thing to talk
- 1:29:12Speaker 2: to people. That's the kind of thing that will, I
- 1:29:14Speaker 2: think hope helpefully help get people up and start working
- 1:29:17Speaker 2: on the project, because we do need all the voices
- 1:29:20Speaker 2: out there we can get. We need all the conversations
- 1:29:22Speaker 2: with the regular voter out there that we can get
- 1:29:24Speaker 2: in order to stop this this insanity. The barbarians are
- 1:29:27Speaker 2: at the gate. In fact, I think they've breached it
- 1:29:29Speaker 2: in certain areas. Afpaction dot com, right, Donovan, that's.
- 1:29:34Speaker 5: The place to go.
- 1:29:35Speaker 14: Sign up, take action our team member. We'll reach out
- 1:29:37Speaker 14: to you and we'll get you plugged in. We've got
- 1:29:38Speaker 14: less than ninety days to go, Brian. It's kind of
- 1:29:40Speaker 14: get in a fight.
- 1:29:41Speaker 2: It'll be here before you know at afpaction dot Com.
- 1:29:44Speaker 2: God bless you, sir and everybody at the AFP Action. We'll
- 1:29:46Speaker 2: talk again next week. Have a wonderful week between now
- 1:29:48Speaker 2: and then, my friend, seven thirty nine here at fifty
- 1:29:52Speaker 2: five KRCIT talk station five to one three seven forty
- 1:29:54Speaker 2: the station.
- 1:29:57Speaker 1: Seven forty nine, fifty five KRCITE talk station.
- 1:29:59Speaker 2: Off top of the other news looking forward to Todd
- 1:30:02Speaker 2: Starnes joining the program, and you probably read his stuff
- 1:30:04Speaker 2: if you check out news macs, The Todd starn Show
- 1:30:07Speaker 2: award winning journalist is. But anyway, this book, The Golden
- 1:30:10Speaker 2: Age How Trump Saved America details how Trump led the
- 1:30:14Speaker 2: charge to restore our schools and our families, our sovereigntory,
- 1:30:16Speaker 2: our military. Apparently it's an uplifting nob or a book.
- 1:30:21Speaker 2: Get the details from Todd af top of the R News.
- 1:30:23Speaker 2: In the meantime, I's something I wanted to mention the
- 1:30:25Speaker 2: six o'clock. If you're wondering why didn't pursue my comments
- 1:30:28Speaker 2: in the lead end of the six o'clock Aurbat technology.
- 1:30:31Speaker 2: This is a tech Friday Day of Hatter story. And
- 1:30:33Speaker 2: people are worried about flock cameras, and I understand that privacy, invasion,
- 1:30:37Speaker 2: privacy concerns. You know the ring doorbell systems we all
- 1:30:41Speaker 2: voluntarily buy into that. We know about the surveillance on
- 1:30:43Speaker 2: our cell phones. Surveillance state's growing by leaps and bounds.
- 1:30:47Speaker 2: Here is a frightening, frightening thing. At least I perceive
- 1:30:50Speaker 2: it to be a Comcast I believe was yesterday unveiled
- 1:30:55Speaker 2: something called Exfinity shield A, described as a home security
- 1:31:00Speaker 2: platform built on let's say your Wi Fi network at home.
- 1:31:04Speaker 1: You got your Wi Fi, Those little.
- 1:31:05Speaker 2: Waves are floating all over the place, so it can
- 1:31:07Speaker 2: work your anet of things devices in your computers, et cetera.
- 1:31:10Speaker 2: Wi Fi Motion, which is the feature on this Exfinity
- 1:31:13Speaker 2: Shield turns your Wi Fi system into a motion detector.
- 1:31:21Speaker 2: And while this is an opt in currently opt in
- 1:31:23Speaker 2: features and they say it does not track phones or
- 1:31:26Speaker 2: reach through Wi Fi extenders, it can reach to your phone.
- 1:31:31Speaker 2: They just have that feature, you know, not available. So
- 1:31:33Speaker 2: the technology exists to connect literally everything that's on your
- 1:31:36Speaker 2: Wi Fi. But it turns it into a motion detector.
- 1:31:38Speaker 2: And as it's been described, it can figure out who's
- 1:31:42Speaker 2: in the house, specifically where they are. It can ide
- 1:31:45Speaker 2: and there's an extra feature for fifteen bucks a month,
- 1:31:47Speaker 2: Exfinity Shield Select adds AI powered cameras that literally identify people, pets, packages,
- 1:31:55Speaker 2: and vehicles. And this is within your own home. They
- 1:31:59Speaker 2: can attack what's inside your house through your Wi Fi system.
- 1:32:02Speaker 2: Now Davis talked about this before, but you know it
- 1:32:05Speaker 2: was something like the CIA was able to do. Now
- 1:32:07Speaker 2: it's available in your own home. Would you ask for this?
- 1:32:10Speaker 2: There's an opt in opt out feature. And even if
- 1:32:16Speaker 2: there is an opt out feature, how comfortable are you
- 1:32:19Speaker 2: that someone isn't hacking into or otherwise exploiting it for
- 1:32:22Speaker 2: the purposes of figuring out where in your home you
- 1:32:24Speaker 2: are and who's in there. According to the fine print HMM,
- 1:32:30Speaker 2: Comcast may disclose information gender by your WiFi motion to
- 1:32:33Speaker 2: third parties without further notice in connection with law enforcement investigations.
- 1:32:40Speaker 2: Using nothing but the traffic from an ordinary Wi Fi network.
- 1:32:43Speaker 2: The system identified people with ninety nine point five percent
- 1:32:47Speaker 2: accuracy in a study of one hundred and ninety seven participants,
- 1:32:50Speaker 2: regardless of viewing angle or how the person walked George
- 1:32:56Speaker 2: orwell big brother in your house pivoting over, you know,
- 1:33:02Speaker 2: springing from that whole flock camera concerns, people have elevated
- 1:33:06Speaker 2: concerns they are. There was an article I saw about
- 1:33:09Speaker 2: Amazon expanding its drone delivery. It's coming to five hundred
- 1:33:14Speaker 2: cities and they can deliver packages up to five pounds,
- 1:33:18Speaker 2: and it's already been reported one hundreds of thousand of
- 1:33:20Speaker 2: these packages have been delivered by Amazon, and Walmart's coming
- 1:33:23Speaker 2: out with the same kind of thing. One of the
- 1:33:26Speaker 2: things that was identified. Now, you people who hate AI
- 1:33:28Speaker 2: data centers because of the noise, can you imagine the noise?
- 1:33:33Speaker 2: I don't know if they even make a quiet drone.
- 1:33:35Speaker 2: All the ones I hear sound like, Remember I'm revealing
- 1:33:38Speaker 2: my age. Remember the old Cox airplanes as little gas
- 1:33:41Speaker 2: powered airplanes. You wind the battery up, and you wind
- 1:33:43Speaker 2: the motor up, and it just winds loud. That's what
- 1:33:47Speaker 2: my experience with hearing drones fly by. It's just a nasty,
- 1:33:50Speaker 2: noisy concern. But Okay, Amazon's doing it today, Walmart's doing
- 1:33:53Speaker 2: it maybe five minutes from now. Literally anybody on the
- 1:33:56Speaker 2: planet can buy a drone. How many of these things
- 1:33:59Speaker 2: are going to be flying around in our neighborhoods? But
- 1:34:01Speaker 2: moving over to the common of that flock, Uh, don't
- 1:34:04Speaker 2: you think, just maybe, just maybe that these drones will
- 1:34:09Speaker 2: also be equipped with cameras. Don't you think that is
- 1:34:13Speaker 2: a prerequisite to them flying around your neighborhood that somebody
- 1:34:16Speaker 2: on the other end can make sure it's going where
- 1:34:18Speaker 2: it needs to be and isn't flying into a tree
- 1:34:20Speaker 2: or something else. Of course, I gotta imagine, you know,
- 1:34:25Speaker 2: you got your delivery guys taking a photograph of the
- 1:34:28Speaker 2: package to confirm to you and to have a record
- 1:34:31Speaker 2: of the delivery that the package was in fact left
- 1:34:34Speaker 2: on your front door. So you can't go to Amazon
- 1:34:36Speaker 2: and say nobody delivered it. Oh no, wait, we did.
- 1:34:38Speaker 2: Here it is, there's a picture of it. Someone stole it. Obviously,
- 1:34:41Speaker 2: the delivery cameras on a drone are going to record
- 1:34:43Speaker 2: something like that, I would imagine with almost absolute certainty.
- 1:34:47Speaker 2: So you're going to live in a world where there
- 1:34:49Speaker 2: are literally thousands of these damned things flying around all
- 1:34:52Speaker 2: over the place. This is something I think we need
- 1:34:55Speaker 2: to get ahead of some way or another. I'm not
- 1:34:56Speaker 2: against the free market or capitalism, but I think the
- 1:34:59Speaker 2: down is overwhelming in this particular thing.
- 1:35:03Speaker 1: So just an observation.
- 1:35:05Speaker 2: It's just a frightening reality of the technology and where
- 1:35:07Speaker 2: it's leading us. All right, Now here's a fun one.
- 1:35:10Speaker 2: You're gonna harness technology and save you money. I saw
- 1:35:13Speaker 2: this meme on the on Facebook. I thought it was
- 1:35:16Speaker 2: just hilarious. Can't afford a private investigator, just order food delivery.
- 1:35:22Speaker 2: So here's the alleged exchange. I could have been generated artificially,
- 1:35:25Speaker 2: it could be real. I don't care, but it makes
- 1:35:26Speaker 2: a great point. The back and forth text exchange between
- 1:35:30Speaker 2: a person ordering delivery of food an Uber eats kind
- 1:35:37Speaker 2: of thing, and the delivery person. The person who's picking
- 1:35:40Speaker 2: up the food and going to deliver it. So here's
- 1:35:41Speaker 2: the initial outreach. Hi, I just placed the deck taco
- 1:35:45Speaker 2: order and I don't want this actually delivered. There's a
- 1:35:48Speaker 2: ten dollars tip built in, and keep the cazo.
- 1:35:52Speaker 1: Keep the tip.
- 1:35:54Speaker 2: My husband is supposed to be home alone while I'm
- 1:35:56Speaker 2: visiting family. I just need to know what cars are
- 1:35:59Speaker 2: in the driveway. Yes, I know I sound crazy. For
- 1:36:01Speaker 2: the love of God, please don't actually deliver this. The
- 1:36:05Speaker 2: delivery drivers is just to clarify. You don't want me
- 1:36:07Speaker 2: to deliver the food. You just want me to drive
- 1:36:09Speaker 2: by the house and the address you gave me and
- 1:36:10Speaker 2: let you know what cars are in the driveway.
- 1:36:12Speaker 1: Response.
- 1:36:13Speaker 2: Yes, keep the food, and I added a ten dollars
- 1:36:16Speaker 2: tip in a place you order.
- 1:36:17Speaker 1: Response.
- 1:36:18Speaker 2: All right, then I'm in line getting the kazo, but
- 1:36:21Speaker 2: I'll let you know once I go by. So, for
- 1:36:24Speaker 2: presumably something along the order of about fifteen dollars, you
- 1:36:26Speaker 2: don't have to pay a private investigator to do a
- 1:36:28Speaker 2: fly by in your home. I thought that was a
- 1:36:30Speaker 2: rather brilliant use of the Uber Eats system. But also
- 1:36:33Speaker 2: I think it's a reflection of how solid that marriage is.
- 1:36:36Speaker 2: That she's so worried that she has to have someone
- 1:36:38Speaker 2: do a fly by Mary Smart Folks. Seven fifty six
- 1:36:42Speaker 2: coming up, we're going to talk to Todd Starns about
- 1:36:45Speaker 2: The Golden Age, How Trump Saved America. Plus, of course
- 1:36:47Speaker 2: it's Wednesday, Judge Eda Paulatane on ice, wanting to read
- 1:36:50Speaker 2: your email. Stick around America, gentlemen, the people. It's eight
- 1:36:59Speaker 2: oh five here at fifty five kr CD Talk station.
- 1:37:01Speaker 2: Brian Thomas happy to welcome to the fifty five Carsee
- 1:37:04Speaker 2: Morning Show. I hope you check him out on the
- 1:37:06Speaker 2: listen to the Todds Todd starn Show. He is an
- 1:37:09Speaker 2: award winning journalist host of the news Max Todd starn Show.
- 1:37:11Speaker 2: He also is his national daily radio show. He is
- 1:37:14Speaker 2: an award winner to regional Edward R. Murraw Awards, he
- 1:37:17Speaker 2: got the Associated Press Mark Twain Award, written multiple best
- 1:37:21Speaker 2: selling books, and he has also been honored by the
- 1:37:23Speaker 2: National Religious Broadcasters, which might come into play when we
- 1:37:26Speaker 2: discuss his book The Golden Age, How Trump Saved America.
- 1:37:30Speaker 2: Todd Starns, Welcome to the fifty five Karsseme Morning Show.
- 1:37:33Speaker 2: It's a pleasure to have you on.
- 1:37:34Speaker 8: Well, it is an honor to be with you.
- 1:37:36Speaker 2: Thank you this morning, my play Hey listen man, I
- 1:37:38Speaker 2: want to thank everybody ever Newsmax. I there are a
- 1:37:41Speaker 2: whole being a radio host and talking about matters political
- 1:37:44Speaker 2: Todd four hours a day, five days a week. There's
- 1:37:46Speaker 2: a lot of sites I rely on to get news,
- 1:37:48Speaker 2: and I applaud Newsmax for its site. I think it's
- 1:37:51Speaker 2: an excellent site and I use it regularly. So newsmax
- 1:37:55Speaker 2: dot com for folks, I think it's I recommend you
- 1:37:57Speaker 2: book mark that one and also recommend to get a
- 1:37:59Speaker 2: copy of Golden Mats. How Trump Saved America? Saved America
- 1:38:03Speaker 2: Todd Starns. I'll put you on the understand here. Is
- 1:38:07Speaker 2: that title perhaps sound a little bit premature. I'm worried
- 1:38:11Speaker 2: as hell about the DSA and the broader and wider
- 1:38:15Speaker 2: acceptance and approval of socialism generally speaking, by even some
- 1:38:20Speaker 2: folks that you wouldn't think would go down that road.
- 1:38:22Speaker 2: Are things so bad that we are actually going to
- 1:38:25Speaker 2: go down that road? It's happened so far in multiple
- 1:38:27Speaker 2: different primaries. I'm really worried. Also, you got mom Dommy
- 1:38:30Speaker 2: running New York City of all places.
- 1:38:33Speaker 10: Well you do, and just because you say something doesn't
- 1:38:37Speaker 10: mean it can become lost again. I do think that
- 1:38:41Speaker 10: President Trump saved America. You know, when you you know
- 1:38:45Speaker 10: the country suffers from I think short term memory loss.
- 1:38:49Speaker 10: We forgot just how bad things were during the Biden administration,
- 1:38:54Speaker 10: those dark years in the country, and what President Trump
- 1:38:59Speaker 10: has done since he was re elected is really quite remarkable.
- 1:39:03Speaker 10: And that's one of the reasons I wrote the book
- 1:39:05Speaker 10: is that many of my follow conservatives were beginning to
- 1:39:08Speaker 10: buy into the far left narrative that this presidency has
- 1:39:12Speaker 10: been something of a failure or a disappointment, when in fact,
- 1:39:17Speaker 10: most of the campaign promises have already been delivered on
- 1:39:21Speaker 10: and just using that as a metric has been quite remarkable.
- 1:39:26Speaker 10: And I lay it all out in the Golden Age.
- 1:39:29Speaker 10: But as you said, I mean, there are great concerns
- 1:39:32Speaker 10: on the horizon, and I would suggest that he is
- 1:39:35Speaker 10: the lombo communist combo platter is going to be very
- 1:39:41Speaker 10: toxic for this country. We certainly saw that happen last
- 1:39:44Speaker 10: night again with another Democrat DSA candidate winning in Florida
- 1:39:49Speaker 10: at least denomination. So yeah, there is a big there's
- 1:39:52Speaker 10: a there's a big threat on the horizon. But Donald
- 1:39:56Speaker 10: Trump stopped US from falling over the communist cliff and
- 1:40:00Speaker 10: twenty three four election, Well, one of the greatest accomplishments,
- 1:40:03Speaker 10: I think in the most profound one the immediate closure
- 1:40:08Speaker 10: of the border.
- 1:40:08Speaker 2: It's as if a switch was flipped. Lights were on,
- 1:40:12Speaker 2: lights went off. By Trump being sworn into office, the
- 1:40:15Speaker 2: border was almost immediately shut down, which you know, proves
- 1:40:18Speaker 2: the Biden lie. First off, we were lied to, Oh
- 1:40:20Speaker 2: there's nobody streaming of the border, the borders are shut down,
- 1:40:22Speaker 2: the borders are secure.
- 1:40:23Speaker 1: Well they weren't.
- 1:40:24Speaker 11: We know it.
- 1:40:25Speaker 2: Millions and millions of people illegally entered this country, I
- 1:40:28Speaker 2: would say, facilitated by the Biden administration's refusal to uphold
- 1:40:31Speaker 2: the laws that were on the books. We didn't need
- 1:40:34Speaker 2: new laws, We just needed someone who had the stones
- 1:40:36Speaker 2: that stand there and close the border. Welcome Donald Trump
- 1:40:39Speaker 2: and of course getting rid of it.
- 1:40:41Speaker 1: Go ahead.
- 1:40:42Speaker 10: I think that's a great way to look at it.
- 1:40:45Speaker 10: And look, this was a very dangerous thing that Biden did,
- 1:40:49Speaker 10: which was literally to destabilize the country. Now that byen
- 1:40:53Speaker 10: do that, his auto pen or the far leftists and administration,
- 1:40:57Speaker 10: all of the above, possibly, but that really doesn't matter.
- 1:41:00Speaker 10: Right now, we have got to, you know, and again
- 1:41:03Speaker 10: I think that the President's done a remarkable job of
- 1:41:06Speaker 10: shutting down the border, but now we've got to follow
- 1:41:09Speaker 10: through on the mass deportations. My philosophy is, if you're
- 1:41:13Speaker 10: here illegally, you have to go back to where.
- 1:41:15Speaker 8: You came from.
- 1:41:17Speaker 10: You cannot stay here. We have got If we want
- 1:41:20Speaker 10: to focus on immigrants, we need to be focusing on
- 1:41:23Speaker 10: the people who have tried to come here the legal way.
- 1:41:25Speaker 2: Right and not the illegal way. Well, and that the
- 1:41:28Speaker 2: temporary protected status is another one. The word that the
- 1:41:31Speaker 2: whole concept temporary. It's right there. It's built into the definition.
- 1:41:34Speaker 2: Who qualify it? Temporary is not permanent. But the minute
- 1:41:37Speaker 2: you pull the plug and you go follow through with
- 1:41:39Speaker 2: what they were told when they were allowed to enter
- 1:41:41Speaker 2: our country, it's temporary.
- 1:41:44Speaker 1: Then people go crazy.
- 1:41:45Speaker 2: Democrats love status quo, even if it's bad for America.
- 1:41:49Speaker 10: It's a great point you bring up. And you know,
- 1:41:53Speaker 10: as I was writing The Golden Age, you know, you
- 1:41:57Speaker 10: see these things happening around the nation, and you just
- 1:42:01Speaker 10: have to thank God every single day that Donald Trump
- 1:42:04Speaker 10: got elected. Otherwise I think we would have already lost
- 1:42:08Speaker 10: the country. So we have a lot of work to do.
- 1:42:11Speaker 10: And that really was the point of the Golden Ages. Yes,
- 1:42:15Speaker 10: what celebrate the great accomplishments, but also with an eye
- 1:42:18Speaker 10: looking towards the future. How do we pick up the
- 1:42:23Speaker 10: mantle of the American First movement after Trump leaves office?
- 1:42:27Speaker 2: Well, it is not just an ode to Donald Trump.
- 1:42:29Speaker 2: Your book, The Golden Age, How Trump Saved America? I
- 1:42:31Speaker 2: understand you also dive into the details, like, here's what
- 1:42:34Speaker 2: something I want to know, Todd Starns. What in the
- 1:42:37Speaker 2: hell's was Center Republicans trying to sabotaize the Save Act?
- 1:42:41Speaker 2: It's wildly popular, Todd. This is one of those if
- 1:42:43Speaker 2: I maybe I'm wrong, but I do believe it's one
- 1:42:45Speaker 2: of those eighty twenty issues where eighty percent of the
- 1:42:47Speaker 2: Americans realize and appreciate that asking for a photo ID
- 1:42:50Speaker 2: is no great ask and is good for the protecting
- 1:42:53Speaker 2: the election.
- 1:42:55Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:42:56Speaker 10: Absolutely, And again this goes back to the fact that
- 1:43:00Speaker 10: Donald Trump is really not a Republican.
- 1:43:03Speaker 14: He sort of hijacked the party to accomplish what needed
- 1:43:07Speaker 14: to be done the Republicans and to do nothing Congress
- 1:43:12Speaker 14: are really the reason why Trump was created at the
- 1:43:15Speaker 14: first place. Is voters so frustrated because they would elect
- 1:43:21Speaker 14: these Republicans, and the Republicans would always turn their banks
- 1:43:26Speaker 14: on these voters, and that's really what led to the
- 1:43:29Speaker 14: age of Trump. So the Republicans want their party back.
- 1:43:33Speaker 14: They see that Donald Trump is about to become a
- 1:43:35Speaker 14: lane duck president, and so especially in the Senate, they
- 1:43:40Speaker 14: know they can outlast Donald Trump. Which is why John
- 1:43:43Speaker 14: Thune and the establishment Republicans have really slammed on the
- 1:43:47Speaker 14: breaks when it comes to things right, for example, the
- 1:43:49Speaker 14: Save America Act, or the fact that this is the
- 1:43:52Speaker 14: first president in modern political history who has not been
- 1:43:55Speaker 14: allowed to make a recess appointment because members of his
- 1:43:59Speaker 14: own party are blocking his efforts to do that.
- 1:44:04Speaker 2: Well, we have met the enemy, and they seem to
- 1:44:06Speaker 2: be us, at least in certain to a certain degree.
- 1:44:08Speaker 2: Todd Starns, See, you know, I have never heard it
- 1:44:10Speaker 2: put that way, and I think that's a brilliant analysis.
- 1:44:13Speaker 2: That Trump was an active frustration. We want something nobody's delivering.
- 1:44:18Speaker 2: He's a different path. Let's give this new guy a shot,
- 1:44:21Speaker 2: and he actually delivered I think on at least two
- 1:44:23Speaker 2: prongs of the Tea Party effort, which was a comparable effort.
- 1:44:27Speaker 2: Early on we went through that sort of wrestling with
- 1:44:30Speaker 2: what the Republicans mean. But remember the Tea Party fiscal responsibility,
- 1:44:33Speaker 2: limited government, and free markets. Now, I think Donald Trump
- 1:44:36Speaker 2: is delivered to the extent he can get away with it,
- 1:44:38Speaker 2: the limited government part, getting rid of reckless, wasteful spending,
- 1:44:42Speaker 2: farting out fraud, waste and abuse in that kind of thing,
- 1:44:45Speaker 2: and fostering free markets. But there's that old fiscal responsibility
- 1:44:49Speaker 2: thing to your point that he's not a Republican. Republicans
- 1:44:51Speaker 2: traditionally campaigned on a pledged fiscal responsibility. Todd Starnes, I'm
- 1:44:55Speaker 2: staring at a printing press printing out trillions of additional
- 1:44:58Speaker 2: dollars every year and a forty trillion, ever growing federal
- 1:45:01Speaker 2: debt that we have to pay debt service on. Are
- 1:45:03Speaker 2: we ever going to get fiscal responsibility? Todd Starnes.
- 1:45:07Speaker 10: Yeah, the answer to that question is though we are not.
- 1:45:14Speaker 11: I know, I know, I do.
- 1:45:19Speaker 10: It's really bad. Uh yeah, so, you know, and again
- 1:45:24Speaker 10: I think that's the big problem. It's like, for example,
- 1:45:28Speaker 10: I live in Tennessee, which is a super majority red state,
- 1:45:32Speaker 10: and I was having this conversation with someone a few
- 1:45:35Speaker 10: a few weeks ago. You know, we believe in limited government.
- 1:45:39Speaker 10: So why is it our majority Republican legislature keeps creating
- 1:45:44Speaker 10: all of these new laws. You know, I think once
- 1:45:46Speaker 10: you get elected, you just can't seem to help yourself.
- 1:45:49Speaker 10: You want to create more laws, and you want to
- 1:45:51Speaker 10: spend other people's money. And you know, that's a problem
- 1:45:55Speaker 10: that the Republicans they're going to have to get a
- 1:45:57Speaker 10: handle on. I don't know that they've learned lesson, but
- 1:46:01Speaker 10: they're going to have to.
- 1:46:03Speaker 2: I was having a discussion Todd Starns's author of the
- 1:46:05Speaker 2: book we're talking about today, the Golden Age, How Trump
- 1:46:07Speaker 2: Saved America. And parenthetically, Todd and my listeners, you can
- 1:46:09Speaker 2: get a copy of this book at fifty five K
- 1:46:12Speaker 2: see dot iHeart dot com right there on the podcast
- 1:46:14Speaker 2: and blog pages. Just put that up a link so
- 1:46:16Speaker 2: we can easily buy it, and I know they will.
- 1:46:18Speaker 1: Todd Starns.
- 1:46:19Speaker 2: But talking with a Jewish friend of mine the other
- 1:46:20Speaker 2: day about a whole bunch of different political topics, dear
- 1:46:23Speaker 2: friend of mine, and he's on the left side of
- 1:46:24Speaker 2: the political ledger, and I was asking him about what
- 1:46:27Speaker 2: is with your side of the political ledgers embracing anti Semitism.
- 1:46:32Speaker 2: You've got some wildly anti Semitic candidates, going back to
- 1:46:36Speaker 2: lsied and mom Dommy getting elected. When did the Democrat
- 1:46:40Speaker 2: Party become the anti Semitic party? But in your book
- 1:46:43Speaker 2: you comment on the rise of anti Semitism within the
- 1:46:46Speaker 2: Republican Party. That is not as widely reported. Todd Starns,
- 1:46:49Speaker 2: what's the where is this coming from?
- 1:46:52Speaker 11: Right?
- 1:46:52Speaker 10: Brand, You're right, it's a dangerous thing. And again, I
- 1:46:57Speaker 10: you know when one of the dangers this, you know,
- 1:47:01Speaker 10: populist movement within the Republican Party is You're going to
- 1:47:06Speaker 10: have a lot of different viewpoints, and that is one
- 1:47:08Speaker 10: of them. This rise of anti Semitism, especially among younger
- 1:47:14Speaker 10: Republican voters, very disturbing thing. I think a lot of
- 1:47:18Speaker 10: this has to simply do with the lack of education.
- 1:47:22Speaker 10: I write in the book that the lynchpin to all
- 1:47:25Speaker 10: of this. If we really do want to save America,
- 1:47:28Speaker 10: we have to abolish the Department of Education. Yeah, and
- 1:47:31Speaker 10: we're local control, you know, of the schools back to
- 1:47:35Speaker 10: the communities, because that's ultimately the engine. These taxpayer frontic classrooms,
- 1:47:41Speaker 10: this is the engine driving this radical change in our country,
- 1:47:45Speaker 10: not just from you know, anti semitism, the radical sex
- 1:47:49Speaker 10: and gender ideology, critical race theory, you name it. It's
- 1:47:54Speaker 10: coming from our nation's education system.
- 1:47:56Speaker 2: With that question, but the genesis of anti Semitism has
- 1:48:00Speaker 2: always been puzzling to me, Todd Starns. And I know
- 1:48:03Speaker 2: you're a devoutly Christian man, and you even write about
- 1:48:05Speaker 2: the power and the strength of our country predicated on
- 1:48:08Speaker 2: our belief in the Almighty God. Sadly, more and more
- 1:48:12Speaker 2: people these days and over decades of a damning and
- 1:48:15Speaker 2: demonization of Christianity, generally speaking in the media, in comedy.
- 1:48:20Speaker 2: I think a lot of young people don't even have
- 1:48:21Speaker 2: any sense of religion. That is a parental obligation. Speaking
- 1:48:24Speaker 2: of education, but we're moving away from that. But insofar
- 1:48:27Speaker 2: as anti Semitism is current, I've never understood it. But
- 1:48:30Speaker 2: why is that a How is it in any way,
- 1:48:32Speaker 2: shape or form a political thing? We don't live in
- 1:48:34Speaker 2: a theocracy, Todd. How is demonizing Jewish people, how does
- 1:48:39Speaker 2: that advance any political agenda? Or how is that in
- 1:48:42Speaker 2: any way shape or form good for well, really anyone.
- 1:48:48Speaker 10: It's a great question, and I would contend that, and
- 1:48:51Speaker 10: you're right, we're not a theocracy. However, we are a
- 1:48:55Speaker 10: nation that was founded on Christian teachings right, and our
- 1:49:00Speaker 10: second President, John Adams, you know, said that our constitutions
- 1:49:03Speaker 10: holley inadequate for anyone other than a moral and religious people.
- 1:49:08Speaker 10: So I contend when you do take God out of
- 1:49:10Speaker 10: the equation, you get chaos in the culture, which I
- 1:49:14Speaker 10: think we've got a lot of right now. And that's
- 1:49:17Speaker 10: one of the reasons why I really issue a call
- 1:49:20Speaker 10: to restore the values of our founding fathers when it
- 1:49:24Speaker 10: comes to you know, being a nation that that believes
- 1:49:30Speaker 10: that God has really predestined for us to be the
- 1:49:34Speaker 10: nation we are. You know, it's not a deep dive
- 1:49:38Speaker 10: into religion, but it certainly plays a role I think
- 1:49:42Speaker 10: in the day to day affairs of mankind.
- 1:49:46Speaker 2: Well, I have always been of the mind that that
- 1:49:49Speaker 2: you know, it's like Marxists don't believe in God. The
- 1:49:51Speaker 2: state is the most powerful thing, and that is from
- 1:49:54Speaker 2: where all rights and anything comes from. But if you
- 1:49:57Speaker 2: have a sense of there being a higher power or
- 1:50:00Speaker 2: something above the state, I think it's a comforting thing.
- 1:50:04Speaker 2: And I also think that also suggests that, you know,
- 1:50:06Speaker 2: we need to be more responsible for ourselves. You know,
- 1:50:09Speaker 2: God's there and hopefully you'll provide us a path. But
- 1:50:12Speaker 2: in the final analysis, you know, it's us and our
- 1:50:14Speaker 2: belief in a higher power and our belief in ourselves
- 1:50:16Speaker 2: to accomplish something or not, and not turning over the
- 1:50:18Speaker 2: keys of decision making to some person who doesn't even
- 1:50:21Speaker 2: know us in our representative democracy.
- 1:50:26Speaker 10: Yeah, I think that's a fair a fair assessment. And
- 1:50:29Speaker 10: we cover those topics and in the Golden Age, one
- 1:50:33Speaker 10: of my favorite chapters. I don't know, but you heard
- 1:50:35Speaker 10: the news. We did a book signing in Memphis, which
- 1:50:39Speaker 10: is my hometown, at the Barges of Noble, and Senator
- 1:50:43Speaker 10: Marshall Blackbird was there, in Congressman Devidasso.
- 1:50:45Speaker 8: We had a good crowd.
- 1:50:47Speaker 10: All of a sudden we hear this screaming and it
- 1:50:53Speaker 10: turns out that a a ginormous thundering herd morbidly obese,
- 1:50:59Speaker 10: white woke women was storming the Barnes and Noble and
- 1:51:04Speaker 10: they were screaming and cursing and tried to shut down
- 1:51:07Speaker 10: our book signing. It was the craziest thing I'd ever seen.
- 1:51:11Speaker 10: And the irony is there's a chapter in the book
- 1:51:15Speaker 10: where I address these, uh, these far left, woke white
- 1:51:18Speaker 10: women who have been leading these protests around the country,
- 1:51:22Speaker 10: and ironically it was happening right in front of my
- 1:51:25Speaker 10: very eyes.
- 1:51:26Speaker 8: The chapter is.
- 1:51:27Speaker 10: Called the Gals of Girth and it's.
- 1:51:33Speaker 8: Brian.
- 1:51:34Speaker 10: It's a parody chapter where I become a life coach
- 1:51:38Speaker 10: trying to help these these large women find husbands so
- 1:51:42Speaker 10: they can find satisfaction of meaning in life.
- 1:51:46Speaker 2: You just sold a whole bunch of extra copies, Todd,
- 1:51:48Speaker 2: stars boy. I could talk to you for hours, and
- 1:51:51Speaker 2: will of course be listening to the Todd Starns starring
- 1:51:53Speaker 2: show on newsback and getting a copy of the book.
- 1:51:55Speaker 2: We're talking about today, the Golden Age, Trump Saved America.
- 1:51:59Speaker 2: Brilliant Starnes. I thank you for authoring the book and
- 1:52:02Speaker 2: spending time with my listeners and I in meet today.
- 1:52:04Speaker 2: Uh fifty five kr s dot iHeart dot com. Where
- 1:52:07Speaker 2: you get it, Todd, keep up the great work. Brother
- 1:52:09Speaker 2: having a.
- 1:52:10Speaker 9: Bit of turmoil as his Yankees are in second place. Well,
- 1:52:15Speaker 9: maybe they need to get some advice as he's applied
- 1:52:18Speaker 9: for the job of the Ames song to on field Success. Oh,
- 1:52:22Speaker 9: I hope everything works out. The judge's next Chuck Ingram
- 1:52:27Speaker 9: fifty five KRC the talk station.
- 1:52:31Speaker 2: Liaison for on field Success. They've got one of those
- 1:52:34Speaker 2: of the new York Yankees. The man that Chuck was
- 1:52:36Speaker 2: referring to is, of course, every Wednesday here in the
- 1:52:38Speaker 2: fifty five Casse Morning Show absent vacation, Judge Annapolitano, welcome
- 1:52:42Speaker 2: back to your honor. It's always a pleasure having you
- 1:52:44Speaker 2: on my program.
- 1:52:45Speaker 1: Thank you, Brian, and thank you Chuck.
- 1:52:47Speaker 17: I'm not sure what you're talking about that he does
- 1:52:49Speaker 17: much appreciate it.
- 1:52:51Speaker 2: Nobody knows what they hell he's talking about. It's okay,
- 1:52:55Speaker 2: you know, it's a bit of levity and an opportunity
- 1:52:58Speaker 2: for at least a couple of minutes to ofoid the
- 1:53:00Speaker 2: topic of your conversation another concern. And I know you
- 1:53:03Speaker 2: are the one champion of the constitution. We can always
- 1:53:05Speaker 2: count on Ice wants our emails. Okay, here's the situation.
- 1:53:09Speaker 1: We talk about this.
- 1:53:10Speaker 2: You're on or every Friday year in the fifty five
- 1:53:11Speaker 2: KC Morty Show got a wonderful segment called Tech Friday
- 1:53:14Speaker 2: with Dave Hatter, and he always talks about these Internet
- 1:53:17Speaker 2: of Things devices and all these apps. What are the
- 1:53:19Speaker 2: apps there for? Why are they free? They soak up data.
- 1:53:22Speaker 2: That data is then sold to third parties and they
- 1:53:25Speaker 2: generate income off of it. But the data collection is
- 1:53:28Speaker 2: done regardless of where you turn. We've got cell phone
- 1:53:31Speaker 2: providers they hoover up data as well, so the collection
- 1:53:34Speaker 2: is done by private companies, not the government. They're allowed
- 1:53:37Speaker 2: to collect the data, and we enter into the agreement
- 1:53:40Speaker 2: by agreeing to use the app or take use their service,
- 1:53:43Speaker 2: which we pay for. So there's a central location for
- 1:53:46Speaker 2: all the data. It's a third party. It's a private company.
- 1:53:49Speaker 1: Hmm.
- 1:53:49Speaker 2: The government's not allowed to collect all this data because
- 1:53:52Speaker 2: of the Fourth Amendment. So where do they turn. They
- 1:53:54Speaker 2: turn to the companies that are sitting on it. They
- 1:53:56Speaker 2: send a subpoena over there. And companies who are and
- 1:53:58Speaker 2: I think this is the problem. Companies who are regulated
- 1:54:02Speaker 2: by the government and taxed by the government feel an
- 1:54:06Speaker 2: obvious concern in the need to capitulate and turn the
- 1:54:10Speaker 2: information over, even if they're not obligated legally to do it.
- 1:54:13Speaker 1: This is a concern. And you mentioned it's going on
- 1:54:15Speaker 1: with ICE and the emails.
- 1:54:17Speaker 4: You're exactly right, Brian, You're exactly right.
- 1:54:21Speaker 17: The digital aspects of this can get very complex, as
- 1:54:25Speaker 17: can the constitutional aspects, but the human aspects are what
- 1:54:29Speaker 17: I'm concerned about. Can the government start an investigation based
- 1:54:36Speaker 17: on speech.
- 1:54:37Speaker 4: The answer to that is no, it cannot.
- 1:54:40Speaker 17: It can only start an investigation based on crime, and
- 1:54:45Speaker 17: ICE does not investigate crimes. The FBI is the investigative
- 1:54:50Speaker 17: authority of the federal government for crimes, so ICE wants
- 1:54:54Speaker 17: to become another FBI. It doesn't have prosecutors, so it
- 1:54:59Speaker 17: can go to federal judges and get search warrants. It
- 1:55:04Speaker 17: doesn't have prosecutors, so it can't summon grand juries to
- 1:55:08Speaker 17: commence criminal investigations, so it issues these bland, nebulous things
- 1:55:14Speaker 17: called administrative subpoenas. And some of the internet and telecom
- 1:55:20Speaker 17: service providers, because they're afraid of ICE, or afraid of
- 1:55:24Speaker 17: ICE's boss, the federal government, or they want business from
- 1:55:29Speaker 17: ICE or business from ICE's boss the Federal Government, comply
- 1:55:34Speaker 17: with these administrative subpoenas. They are legally meaningless in this context.
- 1:55:40Speaker 17: So if the Federal Reserve wants to know why a
- 1:55:45Speaker 17: deposit at Chase Manhattan Bank for ten million dollars this
- 1:55:49Speaker 17: is a hypothetical made on a Monday, wasn't credited to
- 1:55:53Speaker 17: the account until Wednesday, that's a legitimate inquiry, and the
- 1:55:56Speaker 17: Federal Reserve can send an administrative subpoena Chase asking for
- 1:56:01Speaker 17: the records of that deposit, and it's being credited. That
- 1:56:05Speaker 17: happens every day. It happens many times a day. Why
- 1:56:07Speaker 17: because Chase is regulated by the Federal Reserve. But if
- 1:56:11Speaker 17: the Department of Homeland Security wants to know who Brian
- 1:56:16Speaker 17: Thomas and Andrew Neapolitano were talking to or what they
- 1:56:20Speaker 17: were talking about when they were privately blasting Ice for
- 1:56:25Speaker 17: being thugs in the streets, can ICE start an investigation
- 1:56:30Speaker 17: of that? Absolutely not. Can ICE acquire data about that
- 1:56:36Speaker 17: conversation from an administrative subpoena? Absolutely not, because the administrative
- 1:56:42Speaker 17: subpoena is legally meaningless. If there were a real criminal investigation,
- 1:56:47Speaker 17: they'd have a real search warrant and they could get
- 1:56:49Speaker 17: whatever they want. But there is no criminal investigation. No
- 1:56:53Speaker 17: judge would grant a search warrant based on speech. That's
- 1:57:00Speaker 17: my point of the article that Americans.
- 1:57:03Speaker 4: Need to be aware of this.
- 1:57:04Speaker 17: What business is it of immigration and customs enforcement? What
- 1:57:10Speaker 17: you and I say to each other in our texts.
- 1:57:13Speaker 2: Well, I'm shocked that they're even concerned about that when
- 1:57:15Speaker 2: we live in a country with free speech. You know,
- 1:57:17Speaker 2: we've talked about free speech many times, many many times over.
- 1:57:20Speaker 2: But that is just you and I engaging in a
- 1:57:24Speaker 2: subjective conclusion about what ICE is or is not. These
- 1:57:27Speaker 2: kind of conversations happen, I mean, all across this land
- 1:57:30Speaker 2: each and every day, thousands and thousands of them. To
- 1:57:34Speaker 2: what end would they even care about that, Judge Enta Paolaitano.
- 1:57:40Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 1:57:42Speaker 17: I think from their perspective, they might be worried. I'll
- 1:57:46Speaker 17: use you and me as an example. Say I lived
- 1:57:49Speaker 17: in Cincinnati and say ICE was about to descend on
- 1:57:52Speaker 17: a certain neighborhood. I think they want to know in
- 1:57:56Speaker 17: advance what the resistance is planning, how many people people
- 1:58:00Speaker 17: are going to be there, Is it likely to get violent?
- 1:58:03Speaker 17: Are they people who will be demonstrating lawful carriers of weapons?
- 1:58:08Speaker 4: That is probably what they're looking for.
- 1:58:13Speaker 17: Unfortunately, the First Amendment and the Fourth Amendment insulate us
- 1:58:18Speaker 17: from their rapacious thirst for what we're saying to each other.
- 1:58:25Speaker 2: Well, we have the freedom of assembly also guaranteed in
- 1:58:28Speaker 2: the Constitution. So whether or not anybody listening is object
- 1:58:34Speaker 2: to people protesting ICE or interfering with ICE, maybe the
- 1:58:37Speaker 2: embrace ICE and want them to do their job. It
- 1:58:39Speaker 2: doesn't matter if you are going to be somewhere, and
- 1:58:42Speaker 2: there is public information generally out in the world, and
- 1:58:45Speaker 2: that's where people figure out where ICE is going to be,
- 1:58:48Speaker 2: and they choose to assemble at that location, they're allowed
- 1:58:53Speaker 2: to do it. And I guess ICE, from my perspective,
- 1:58:55Speaker 2: I should just anticipate ahead of time that, well, we
- 1:58:58Speaker 2: have a Second Amendment right in this country, so we
- 1:59:00Speaker 2: can expect in any group of people in a public space,
- 1:59:02Speaker 2: they are going to be firearms. And of course, since
- 1:59:04Speaker 2: there's so many protesters out there hating what we are doing,
- 1:59:07Speaker 2: that we should expect there are going to be protests
- 1:59:09Speaker 2: there and just plan accordingly based.
- 1:59:10Speaker 1: On that agreed.
- 1:59:12Speaker 17: Agreed, But you know, the government has an insatiable appetite
- 1:59:17Speaker 17: to know what we're doing, what we're saying, what we're thinking,
- 1:59:22Speaker 17: and it just doesn't care about the Constitution. I wish
- 1:59:26Speaker 17: the courts would strike down these administrative subpoenas, and I
- 1:59:30Speaker 17: wish the courts would keep ICE in check. Hey, Alex
- 1:59:33Speaker 17: pretty the nurse shot six times in the back by
- 1:59:38Speaker 17: two ICE agents and murdered on the streets.
- 1:59:42Speaker 4: How many people who have been prosecuted for that?
- 1:59:46Speaker 17: Short answer is too Actually, fellow demonstrators, not the ICE killers.
- 1:59:53Speaker 1: That is true.
- 1:59:53Speaker 2: But you know, Ashley Babbitt got gunned down, and there
- 1:59:56Speaker 2: was no eminent action, eminent apprehension of grieve his bodily
- 1:59:59Speaker 2: harm or death that officer who killed her exposed or
- 2:00:03Speaker 2: was exposed to. But nonetheless, I don't think there was
- 2:00:05Speaker 2: any prosecutions for her murder either.
- 2:00:07Speaker 1: In that January sixth there was none.
- 2:00:08Speaker 4: There was none.
- 2:00:09Speaker 17: He may have even gotten a promotion of some sort.
- 2:00:13Speaker 17: There was no prosecution for the murder of Ashley Bebbott.
- 2:00:17Speaker 4: I do believe.
- 2:00:18Speaker 17: Well, here's what the government did. It settled the case.
- 2:00:21Speaker 17: I don't know what the payment was. It was a
- 2:00:23Speaker 17: large payout or wrongful death case. But yet no criminal
- 2:00:29Speaker 17: no criminal prosecution. Ice is dangerous, and they're becoming more
- 2:00:33Speaker 17: and more dangerous every day. How many American citizens do
- 2:00:37Speaker 17: they stop? Well, if they stopped you or me, I mean,
- 2:00:39Speaker 17: I'm carrying my passport with you with me, I don't
- 2:00:42Speaker 17: know if you do.
- 2:00:43Speaker 4: I have a driver's.
- 2:00:44Speaker 17: License, but that just says that the state of New
- 2:00:46Speaker 17: Jersey authorizes me to drive. It doesn't say I'm an
- 2:00:49Speaker 17: American citizen. Justice Kavanaugh is now being mocked in the
- 2:00:55Speaker 17: Legal and Judicial Committee by a new thing called the
- 2:00:58Speaker 17: Kavanaugh stop because he said in one of his concurrences, Oh,
- 2:01:03Speaker 17: what's the big deal. If they stop you, it's only
- 2:01:06Speaker 17: a two or three minute conversation before they realize you're
- 2:01:09Speaker 17: an American citizen. Hey, Justice Cavanaugh, this isn't the old
- 2:01:14Speaker 17: East Germany. They can't stop us on a whim. This
- 2:01:18Speaker 17: is a free country.
- 2:01:20Speaker 2: Justice Cavanaugh, give me up papers very quickly. Since you
- 2:01:24Speaker 2: and I talked about flock cameras and you're in, you're
- 2:01:27Speaker 2: on the mind, and so many people are that they're
- 2:01:28Speaker 2: an intrusion to our privacy, I had just I want
- 2:01:31Speaker 2: to get your quick reaction on this because I read
- 2:01:33Speaker 2: this article earlier, and I saw it earlier. Amazon expanding
- 2:01:36Speaker 2: its drone delivery, So we're gonna we are on the
- 2:01:38Speaker 2: moment in time where we're gonna have drones literally everywhere.
- 2:01:40Speaker 2: They're gonna spand delivery of five pound packages across five
- 2:01:43Speaker 2: hundred US cities. Walmart's doing the same thing. So you
- 2:01:46Speaker 2: can see a future where drones are flying around. Judge
- 2:01:49Speaker 2: edit of Paul Towano, I submit that every damn one
- 2:01:51Speaker 2: of those is going to have a camera on it.
- 2:01:53Speaker 2: How else can they know that the package was successfully
- 2:01:55Speaker 2: delivered right. That is another component of data. You think
- 2:01:59Speaker 2: flock cameras are bad, there's one hundred and twenty thousand
- 2:02:01Speaker 2: of them around this country. You're gonna have thousands of
- 2:02:05Speaker 2: drones flying around with camera, photographic evidence and data. That's
- 2:02:08Speaker 2: another data point that, of course could be subpoena by
- 2:02:11Speaker 2: the government.
- 2:02:12Speaker 8: Right.
- 2:02:13Speaker 4: What remains of the right to be left alone?
- 2:02:16Speaker 11: Brian?
