- 0:08Speaker 1: Five O five thirty five d r C the talk
- 0:13Speaker 1: station Hapy Tuesday sues. Some say will vacation and that's
- 0:30Speaker 1: the way the news goes. It is the way the
- 0:34Speaker 1: news goes, and the news can be sumwhere at least
- 0:36Speaker 1: in so far as are the negotiations with Iran Limbo.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Will Jade Vance be going to negotiate with Iranians today
- 0:43Speaker 1: or won't he? No one seems to really know, and
- 0:45Speaker 1: the Iranians obviously sending a tremendous amount of mixed messages.
- 0:48Speaker 1: They're on, they're off, They're on, they're off, they're on,
- 0:50Speaker 1: they're off, obviously reflecting an internal issue within Iran. Who
- 0:53Speaker 1: is running a country? Big swirling question marks around that.
- 0:56Speaker 1: Brian Thomas right here, glad to be hope you're having
- 0:58Speaker 1: a wonderful morning so far, give it some time. If not,
- 1:01Speaker 1: you can hang around here listen to the fifty five
- 1:02Speaker 1: Cacy Mornitibre which I would appreciate it. Thank you'll enjoy
- 1:04Speaker 1: it because coming up at seven thirty the return of
- 1:06Speaker 1: Wee with the People Convention dot Org. Tom's Awastowski. Today
- 1:09Speaker 1: we're talking about with Tom us Department of Agriculture sitting down,
- 1:13Speaker 1: shutting down rather stores because of Snap fraud. Well, there's
- 1:19Speaker 1: a response, theft. We had a call the other day
- 1:22Speaker 1: that when I refer to fraud, wasted abuse, and when
- 1:24Speaker 1: the media generally refers to fraud, waste and abuse, and
- 1:26Speaker 1: so far as government spending is concerned and people ripping
- 1:28Speaker 1: off the government, we should call it theft. It is theft, period,
- 1:31Speaker 1: end of story. You're committing Snap fraud, you are stealing.
- 1:34Speaker 1: You're a thieving. You are a well a leech on society,
- 1:38Speaker 1: stealing American tax payer dollars and rendering those programs well,
- 1:43Speaker 1: I wouldn't use the word pointless, but you know, if
- 1:46Speaker 1: they're there to temporarily provide some benefits, you're supposed to
- 1:50Speaker 1: be on them temporarily, not supposed to rip people off.
- 1:53Speaker 1: Tom's Awastowski on the United States Apartment of Agriculture. Well,
- 1:56Speaker 1: doing something about it anyway, We'll get the details from
- 1:58Speaker 1: Tom at seven thirty latest on property tax issue here
- 2:01Speaker 1: in Ohioland why are Ohioans against data centers? Well, let
- 2:05Speaker 1: me count the ways. Being against them for a variety
- 2:10Speaker 1: of reasons is legitimate. I'm against them for a variety
- 2:12Speaker 1: of reasons. But can you really stop this from happening.
- 2:15Speaker 1: Do you want to stop it from happening? I saw
- 2:18Speaker 1: an article about I'm all giddy with excitement over the
- 2:21Speaker 1: idea that we can actually build nuclear power plants, whether
- 2:24Speaker 1: they're small, modular reactors or a giant new plant. South
- 2:28Speaker 1: Carolina is getting ready to put have a new reactor
- 2:30Speaker 1: built in one of the first large scale conventional reactor
- 2:33Speaker 1: builds in the United States in more than ten years.
- 2:35Speaker 1: A company called Nuclear Co tnc South Carolina apparently is
- 2:40Speaker 1: half of the entire states run a nuclear power so
- 2:43Speaker 1: they got their act together, accorded to Bloomberg, this plan
- 2:47Speaker 1: for this new AP one thousand reactor, one of three
- 2:50Speaker 1: potential sites in South Carolina, huge six gigawatts, which is
- 2:57Speaker 1: a whole lot of power. As the article walks through,
- 3:00Speaker 1: you know we've moved forward. We are on a speeding
- 3:04Speaker 1: locomotive toward more nuclear here in the United States of America.
- 3:07Speaker 1: And yet for all of that, China, China's got I
- 3:12Speaker 1: think it was thirty nine nuclear power plants now building
- 3:16Speaker 1: a total of multiple a couple of dozen at least
- 3:19Speaker 1: currently already being built. How many here are being built
- 3:22Speaker 1: in the United States? Zero zero under construction at least
- 3:30Speaker 1: reported by zero, heade reblying on data that they have.
- 3:33Speaker 1: India's GOT six being built, Russia's GOT five being built,
- 3:35Speaker 1: and there are currently no nuclear reactors under construction in
- 3:38Speaker 1: the United States. Everybody else realizes, I guess artificial intelligence
- 3:42Speaker 1: at least the general demand for power isn't going away anywhere,
- 3:46Speaker 1: and of course it's going to ramp up with AI.
- 3:47Speaker 1: You need the power. So whether or not you want
- 3:51Speaker 1: artificial intelligence, the power demands are going to be out there.
- 3:53Speaker 1: Whether whether these AI facilities are built in Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio,
- 3:58Speaker 1: South Carolina, somebody's going to get them. In spite of
- 4:04Speaker 1: the drawbacks that go along with AI. Yeah, job losses
- 4:07Speaker 1: and people not thinking for themselves anymore, all the myriad
- 4:10Speaker 1: reasons why we should be suspicious and worry about AI.
- 4:14Speaker 1: It's not going anywhere, so you can be against data centers.
- 4:23Speaker 1: Is it a good idea to say no, outright, we
- 4:24Speaker 1: are not going to have any of them, period, out
- 4:26Speaker 1: of story, A blanket, one size fits all rule for
- 4:28Speaker 1: all communities, regardless of whether you want one or not.
- 4:31Speaker 1: I think that's a bad idea. We'll hear what Tom
- 4:32Speaker 1: has to say about it. Inside Scoop. It is Tuesday,
- 4:35Speaker 1: every Tuesday. The inside scoop of bright Bart News today
- 4:37Speaker 1: went Andhall, author of Code Red, The Left, the Right,
- 4:41Speaker 1: China and the race to control Oh look Ai, and
- 4:47Speaker 1: if you want to control Ai, going back to my point,
- 4:50Speaker 1: you need massive quantities of electricity. Daniel Davis deep dive.
- 4:55Speaker 1: Of course, the latest on Iran, and that's where we
- 4:57Speaker 1: go right now, because the talks are in limbo. Of course,
- 5:00Speaker 1: the United States in Iran yesterday warning each other they're
- 5:04Speaker 1: ready for war. Clock TikTok, TikTok. And it was kind
- 5:06Speaker 1: of some can't even decide on when the clock runs
- 5:10Speaker 1: out on this most recent red line based on the
- 5:14Speaker 1: start time, the truce theoretically expires overnight tonight Tehran time,
- 5:22Speaker 1: although in his comments beaking with Bloomberg News, Donald Trump
- 5:25Speaker 1: said the end of the at the end was a
- 5:27Speaker 1: day later. That will be Wednesday evening Washington time. So
- 5:31Speaker 1: slight moving target on when the bombs are going to
- 5:33Speaker 1: start dropping, which is the way Donald Trump phraised it.
- 5:36Speaker 1: White House said that JD. Vans was ready to fly
- 5:38Speaker 1: back to pakistan capital Islamabad. Maybe this morning was supposed
- 5:41Speaker 1: to happen, maybe yesterday afternoon late didn't happen, second round
- 5:46Speaker 1: of talks to end the war Tehran. However, their cleric
- 5:50Speaker 1: run government declined to confirm that they would even participate,
- 5:53Speaker 1: accusing the United States of violating the truce because of
- 5:55Speaker 1: the blockade of the Irani imports. The caesar of a ship. Now,
- 5:59Speaker 1: what happened over the week can according to Iran's parliament speaker
- 6:05Speaker 1: Mohammed Bagger Gallibaf, who anyway, he headed the negotiations a
- 6:13Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago and pack Pakistan. This guy, by
- 6:16Speaker 1: imposing a blockade and violating a ceasefire, Trump wants to
- 6:19Speaker 1: turn this negotiation table into a surrender table or justify
- 6:23Speaker 1: renewed hostilities as he sees fits were fit. We do
- 6:28Speaker 1: not accept negotiations under the shadow of threats. And in
- 6:32Speaker 1: the last two weeks we have been preparing to show
- 6:34Speaker 1: new cards on the battlefield. That's a line that's getting
- 6:38Speaker 1: off repeated in the news this morning, Iran threatens to
- 6:41Speaker 1: show new cards on the battlefield. I don't even know
- 6:44Speaker 1: what that means. I gotta be honest with the first thing.
- 6:47Speaker 1: I thought it was the Iraq war with the playing cards,
- 6:50Speaker 1: remember those Joe with all the Irani folks or the
- 6:55Speaker 1: Iraqi folks who are in the crosshairs of the United
- 6:57Speaker 1: States and our military action. There you hand up playing cards.
- 7:01Speaker 1: There's bag Dad Bob, he's the Jack of Diamonds or whatever.
- 7:04Speaker 1: I thought that's kind of what they're referring to. No,
- 7:05Speaker 1: that's clearly not it show new Cards. I guess they
- 7:08Speaker 1: have some strategy they haven't released yet. Maybe that's what
- 7:11Speaker 1: Daniel Davis will enlighten us on when it comes to
- 7:13Speaker 1: eight to thirty.
- 7:14Speaker 2: Hope.
- 7:14Speaker 1: So Trump's accusing Tehran of violating the truce by harassing
- 7:18Speaker 1: vessels in the Strait of Horror moves you go, well, yeah,
- 7:20Speaker 1: both sides have been doing both what they're claiming is
- 7:22Speaker 1: being done. So you have the Iran Revolutionary Guard on
- 7:25Speaker 1: one side, the real hardliners who don't want to negotiate
- 7:27Speaker 1: with Trump and maybe the ones responsible or behind this
- 7:30Speaker 1: whole new Cards on the Field thing. And then you've
- 7:32Speaker 1: got the more diplomatic folks in government trying to maybe
- 7:36Speaker 1: come up with a resolution with the United States. Who's
- 7:38Speaker 1: in charge of the show. It's hard to tell, but
- 7:40Speaker 1: if I had to bet money, I'd say the Iran
- 7:42Speaker 1: Revolutionary Guards are probably in control. They're the ones with
- 7:46Speaker 1: the guns, right In a series of what are described
- 7:52Speaker 1: as angry posts on social media, Trump insisted of the
- 7:54Speaker 1: blockade was absolutely destroying Iran, saying not until there is
- 8:00Speaker 1: a deal all caps, in which the United States is
- 8:04Speaker 1: pressing for Iranian concessions on its contested nuclear programs. Trump
- 8:09Speaker 1: said the Iran was supposed to be there at the
- 8:12Speaker 1: talks in Pakistan. He said, we agreed to be there
- 8:17Speaker 1: then warning if the ceasefire expired, that's where the bombs
- 8:20Speaker 1: come in. Then lots of bombs start going off close quote,
- 8:25Speaker 1: Then lots of bombs start going off, and he said
- 8:29Speaker 1: it was highly unlikely he'd extend the truce. That's the
- 8:31Speaker 1: moving of the red line. At some point, your red
- 8:38Speaker 1: line's gotta show up. And throughout this entire process seems
- 8:42Speaker 1: to get right there, doesn't it only to be well,
- 8:45Speaker 1: we've entered into another piece agreement. So I'm not sure
- 8:47Speaker 1: who's playing uncle in these negotiations. But maybe tomorrow night, midnight,
- 8:52Speaker 1: maybe afternoon, whenever this alleged deadline ends, the bombs start dropping,
- 8:57Speaker 1: the new cards on the battlefield are revealed, we'll enter
- 9:01Speaker 1: into another set of peace negotiations and call some temporary truths.
- 9:05Speaker 1: We'll see oil oil prices did jump yesterday, described as
- 9:09Speaker 1: sharp increase over their guests. The resumption in hostility fear
- 9:15Speaker 1: now another major issue they say in these negotiations, to
- 9:17Speaker 1: the extent they're still going on. Of course, Tehran stockpile
- 9:20Speaker 1: of enriched uranium. Trump said Friday, it had to hand
- 9:24Speaker 1: it over. And yet when you say ask the Erotians
- 9:26Speaker 1: about it, their Foreign ministry said that stockpile thought to
- 9:30Speaker 1: be buried, was in the words of the Foreign Ministry,
- 9:34Speaker 1: not going to be transferred anywhere, and that handing over
- 9:40Speaker 1: the ranium was never raised as an option in talks
- 9:43Speaker 1: with the US negotiators. Now I find that a little
- 9:45Speaker 1: bit hard to believe. So we have the fog of war,
- 9:48Speaker 1: the fog of negotiations, and no clear picture as to
- 9:51Speaker 1: what the hell's going to happen, TikTok TikTok, TikTok, and
- 9:57Speaker 1: the sad reality. And I got a William mcgirrn op
- 9:59Speaker 1: ed on this, the sad reality is, and it's a
- 10:01Speaker 1: really it's just I hate when politics entered into this,
- 10:06Speaker 1: how many people want our efforts there, and ignoring whether
- 10:11Speaker 1: the war was launched lawfully or not, there's that still
- 10:14Speaker 1: pesky constitutional thing floating around out there. I'm not sure
- 10:17Speaker 1: if even if the warpower's resolution clock is running total
- 10:21Speaker 1: swirling mystery around that as well. But as mcgarrin points out,
- 10:28Speaker 1: the establishments out there, Republican establishment, Democrat establishment, mainstream media establishment,
- 10:33Speaker 1: Hollywood establishment, they all want Donald Trump to fail. They
- 10:36Speaker 1: want him to fail more than they want America to succeed.
- 10:42Speaker 1: And that is so sad. It's how bad Trump Arrangements
- 10:48Speaker 1: Systems syndrome has infected our national psychology that it is
- 10:54Speaker 1: with undeniably in the global interests. For Ron to be
- 11:00Speaker 1: i'd say, wiped off the face of the Earth's at
- 11:01Speaker 1: least the current administration running at the Iranian Revolutionary Guard,
- 11:04Speaker 1: the people responsible for terrorist support, the people responsible for
- 11:08Speaker 1: stirring the pot of division and anger and blowing people up,
- 11:10Speaker 1: which they have been doing since well the last forty
- 11:12Speaker 1: seven years. The world would benefit from but the Middle
- 11:16Speaker 1: East countries would all be happy about it. Maybe the
- 11:18Speaker 1: whole region can enter to the Abraham Accords and trade
- 11:21Speaker 1: and play together nicely, And wouldn't that be a glorious
- 11:23Speaker 1: grand thing. That's what a Trump victory would look like.
- 11:27Speaker 1: But oh my god, we'd have to give Donald Trump
- 11:29Speaker 1: a win. Hell no, I'd rather the world be a chaotic,
- 11:33Speaker 1: war infested, terrorist sponsored well the place it's always been
- 11:38Speaker 1: for the last forty seven years. That's crazy Trump arrangement
- 11:42Speaker 1: syndrome right there, five to seventeen, right now, feel free
- 11:44Speaker 1: to call Me'd love to hear from you. Five one
- 11:46Speaker 1: three seven four nine fifty five hundred eight hundred eight
- 11:48Speaker 1: two to three talk pound FI fifty on at and
- 11:50Speaker 1: T funds will be right back. Have you heard the news?
- 11:54Speaker 1: Just shy of five twenty one five one three seven
- 11:58Speaker 1: fifty five hundred eight hundred eight free talk five I
- 12:00Speaker 1: fifty on eighteen He phoned, I see Jeff's on the line.
- 12:02Speaker 1: Hold on one second, Jeff, because I just wanted to
- 12:05Speaker 1: continue this mcgirn point. And he cites a great illustration
- 12:08Speaker 1: of this Trump arrangement syndrome. So it's a good column.
- 12:10Speaker 1: You can read it today. The headline on Iran winning
- 12:13Speaker 1: is the only thing sub subtitled Trump's critics can't cheer
- 12:17Speaker 1: for American victory because it brings him credit sad pathetic
- 12:21Speaker 1: reality of Trump arrangement syndrome, and he cites Thomas Friedman said,
- 12:24Speaker 1: look at poor Thomas Friedman he's about his establishment as
- 12:26Speaker 1: a gets writing a foreign affairs column for the New
- 12:29Speaker 1: York Times with three Pulitzer Prizes to his credit. And
- 12:32Speaker 1: he hates Donald Trump. But Guaran says, but gif Friedman
- 12:35Speaker 1: is due one thing that sets him apart. He is
- 12:37Speaker 1: willing to speak openly about his bias in the untenable
- 12:39Speaker 1: position that puts him in here's your illustration. During a
- 12:43Speaker 1: recent appearance on CNN, he told the host that he
- 12:45Speaker 1: was torn because he really wants to see Iran defeated.
- 12:49Speaker 1: Quote nothing would improve the region more than the replacement
- 12:53Speaker 1: of this regime with the regime in Iran that was
- 12:55Speaker 1: focused on enabling its people to realize their full potential
- 12:58Speaker 1: and integrating peacefully with other countries to stop occupying Lovean
- 13:02Speaker 1: and Syria, Iraq and Yemen. He went on, The problem
- 13:08Speaker 1: is I really don't want to see beb net and
- 13:11Speaker 1: Yahoo or Donald Trump politically strengthened by this war, because
- 13:15Speaker 1: they are two awful human beings close quote Wow, victory
- 13:23Speaker 1: a win column for Trump and all the peace and
- 13:25Speaker 1: all the glood and glory that would bring that particular region,
- 13:27Speaker 1: which he's summarized in that one sentence regarding the full
- 13:30Speaker 1: potential of letting people have their own self direction. But
- 13:34Speaker 1: then there's a Trump win, which I'm guessing he would
- 13:39Speaker 1: prefer Iran staying in power and Trump being defeated in
- 13:44Speaker 1: this war after a great loss of life and significant
- 13:47Speaker 1: loss of military hardware. That's sick and twisted, all right,
- 13:52Speaker 1: without further new Jeff, thank you so much for calling
- 13:54Speaker 1: this morning in a very happy Tuesday till you're welcome.
- 13:58Speaker 3: Hey, good morning here, good morning. Do you think what's
- 14:01Speaker 3: going on in the Middle East? In Israel straight form
- 14:04Speaker 3: mused and everyone hijacking cargo ships and treating uranium powder?
- 14:13Speaker 3: Just try interpreting the new Ohio voter ID law.
- 14:21Speaker 1: You mean there's something else going on in the world, Jeff, uh,
- 14:29Speaker 1: Just what's your point?
- 14:31Speaker 2: Jeff?
- 14:31Speaker 1: What do you what are you struggling over? Because I'm
- 14:33Speaker 1: trying to make some sense out of.
- 14:35Speaker 3: This, not sure what what ID to prove.
- 14:42Speaker 4: That I'm a legal citizen to vote?
- 14:47Speaker 1: Will your real ID works?
- 14:50Speaker 4: Any any student issued idea? You could claim you're you're
- 14:59Speaker 4: seventeen years your old student.
- 15:02Speaker 1: Well, maybe the whole thing gets solved if we just
- 15:04Speaker 1: pass the Save Act and move on with it, because
- 15:06Speaker 1: of course you need to be a US citizen to
- 15:08Speaker 1: vote in a federal election. That's a law that's been
- 15:09Speaker 1: on the books forever. I think, long, long time.
- 15:13Speaker 4: Well, it's all cluster, it's all cluster.
- 15:16Speaker 1: It may be it may be, Jeff, I wish you
- 15:19Speaker 1: all the best in the world, But yeah, real life.
- 15:20Speaker 1: Do you solves anybody's problem out there? If you're really
- 15:22Speaker 1: seriously struggling with an ID, you need to vote. And yes,
- 15:25Speaker 1: the Save Act, which is still swirling around in the background.
- 15:27Speaker 1: I wonder where people are going to end up on
- 15:28Speaker 1: that one. It's hard to know. It's kind of like
- 15:31Speaker 1: the fog of war with Iranni. Will there be a negotiation?
- 15:34Speaker 1: Won't there? Will there be at least a vote on
- 15:36Speaker 1: the Save Act or not? Most Americans want that. That's
- 15:39Speaker 1: the other thing, you know, representative government. So many politicians
- 15:43Speaker 1: struggle with the concept of representative government. Are supposed to
- 15:45Speaker 1: represent us. We struggle with that here in the city
- 15:47Speaker 1: of Cincinnati, don't we. Yeah, politicians doing what they want
- 15:52Speaker 1: to do, not what their constituents want to. Do. Bring
- 15:55Speaker 1: us the Save Act, Pass it, and let's move on
- 15:57Speaker 1: with our lives. Five twenty five about krsee toalkxation, local stories,

- 17:57Speaker 5: rather do correct something like that.
- 18:01Speaker 1: Really, you know, I don't want to suggest for a
- 18:03Speaker 1: moment that I don't enjoy my job or I don't
- 18:05Speaker 1: like talking to folks or anything. You know, it is
- 18:07Speaker 1: taxing to have to deal with politics and all that
- 18:09Speaker 1: saga is going on in the world every single day.
- 18:10Speaker 1: But the one place I'd rather be back.
- 18:13Speaker 5: In bed, right, that feeling of iron you get when
- 18:18Speaker 5: that alarm clock gives off. Do I just push the
- 18:22Speaker 5: button or do I just slam it against the wall?
- 18:26Speaker 1: I have two alarms. One goes off at two thirty
- 18:28Speaker 1: and one goes off at two forty, and you know
- 18:31Speaker 1: it's it's that struggle for me as well. Just do
- 18:33Speaker 1: I wait for the next alarm and get ten more
- 18:35Speaker 1: minutes sleep, which is always a bad idea, even though
- 18:37Speaker 1: I do it a lot, because it's that extra ten minutes.
- 18:40Speaker 1: I'll go back to sleep, and then when the second
- 18:42Speaker 1: alarm goes off, I feel crappy, like, oh that was
- 18:45Speaker 1: that was dumb? You were done at two thirty. Just
- 18:47Speaker 1: get out of bed.
- 18:49Speaker 5: Yep, yep, right on. It's it's those first world struggles
- 18:53Speaker 5: that we deal with, right right right. You know a
- 18:58Speaker 5: lot of things you're talking about boils down to who's
- 19:01Speaker 5: controlling the money. You know, like AI, you know, don't
- 19:05Speaker 5: don't like this, don't like that. But it's it's coming
- 19:08Speaker 5: whether you like it or not. Well, why is it?
- 19:10Speaker 5: Why is it coming, whether you like it or not?
- 19:11Speaker 5: Because the people that control the money, they want it.
- 19:15Speaker 5: Somebody wants it enough. People who have control over things
- 19:19Speaker 5: want this to happen. Yeah, and that also goes for
- 19:23Speaker 5: lots of other things that are happening that we really
- 19:26Speaker 5: don't want. Well, the people that control the money want it.
- 19:29Speaker 5: It somehow profits them they think it does, or if
- 19:32Speaker 5: they think it will.
- 19:33Speaker 1: Look at it from a purely capital standpoint, you know,
- 19:35Speaker 1: you're out there and you're thinking and contemplating your nabel,
- 19:38Speaker 1: and you like, eureka, I have a brilliant idea. What
- 19:41Speaker 1: motivates someone to sit down and contelate their nabel for
- 19:43Speaker 1: the purpose of a brilliant idea to make money? And
- 19:46Speaker 1: if there's something out there that can ultimately make people
- 19:48Speaker 1: money or give them some vehicle to gain power influence
- 19:51Speaker 1: even more so, they're going to pursue it. And then
- 19:53Speaker 1: it's a human interest to want to go down that road.
- 19:56Speaker 1: Artificial intelligence is demanded. There are a lot of people, yes,
- 19:59Speaker 1: with money behind the whole thing, but as a concept,
- 20:03Speaker 1: it will be something worthy of putting capital toward in
- 20:06Speaker 1: order to achieve the ultimate objective of AI. So it
- 20:09Speaker 1: is something that's going to happen, whether there's something nefarious
- 20:12Speaker 1: behind the motivation or not. Some people think just the
- 20:14Speaker 1: pure motive of profit is nefarious. We call those people communists.
- 20:18Speaker 5: So right, all right, that's true. There has to be
- 20:25Speaker 5: some some kind of common good behind what you're doing,
- 20:31Speaker 5: at least there should be. Well, and if you make
- 20:33Speaker 5: a profit off of it's fantastic, you know. But there's
- 20:36Speaker 5: a lot of people out there that come up with
- 20:37Speaker 5: great ideas that help a lot of people, that make
- 20:40Speaker 5: a lot of money. Good for them and good for
- 20:42Speaker 5: everybody around them. Yeah, fantastic. I got no problem with that.
- 20:47Speaker 5: I'd like to be I'd like to have had one
- 20:49Speaker 5: of those ideas or something where I don't have to
- 20:52Speaker 5: get up at four point thirty in the morning and
- 20:53Speaker 5: be at work at six or whatever. You know, that
- 20:56Speaker 5: would be great, but that's not the way it worked out.
- 20:59Speaker 5: So I just do the best I can. Because when
- 21:01Speaker 5: we're talking about.
- 21:02Speaker 1: Your job is immune from artificial intelligence because you actually
- 21:05Speaker 1: have to show up and perform a physical task.
- 21:09Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 21:10Speaker 5: I've been trying to talk my boss into being able
- 21:12Speaker 5: to do this from common It just doesn't work out.
- 21:15Speaker 5: So building a building and building, you can't do it
- 21:18Speaker 5: from the house.
- 21:19Speaker 1: You can't do it from their bed man. You gotta
- 21:21Speaker 1: be there.
- 21:22Speaker 5: Well, yeah, right, you gotta you gotta be there. So yeah,
- 21:26Speaker 5: So when we're talking about electing people voting and all that,
- 21:29Speaker 5: which which we are in the middle of primary season,
- 21:31Speaker 5: and let's not forget that that's a very important thing
- 21:34Speaker 5: going on. We're talking about people who who have the
- 21:37Speaker 5: common good in mind while they're while they're doing stuff,
- 21:40Speaker 5: while they're voting, and while they're coming up with ideas,
- 21:43Speaker 5: while they're negotiating debating, that they actually have the common
- 21:46Speaker 5: good in mind. And you're just not going to find
- 21:49Speaker 5: those people in the Democrat Party. It's just there's too
- 21:52Speaker 5: much of a power struggle that they're under. The trying
- 21:55Speaker 5: to make sure they maintain control, and they're willing, they're
- 21:58Speaker 5: willing to give up things and and let things happen
- 22:01Speaker 5: that are detrimental to society in order for them to continue.
- 22:04Speaker 5: We's control of that. That's basic. The thing that you've
- 22:07Speaker 5: got to be able to notice about the Democrat party,
- 22:10Speaker 5: So don't vote Democrat. Have a great game.
- 22:12Speaker 1: Rak there you go and look up at the SM
- 22:13Speaker 1: five explanation of what a sociopath is. You got malignant
- 22:18Speaker 1: narcissism and you have sociopaths. So sometimes psychopaths, but I
- 22:21Speaker 1: think most politicians fall into the socio path category. Read
- 22:25Speaker 1: about it and with the locals. So I gotta go
- 22:29Speaker 1: to Loveland because this I'm sorry. It was a terrible
- 22:31Speaker 1: situation and unfolded in downtown Loveland over the weekend. But
- 22:35Speaker 1: when the bar was identified, I'm like, yeah, multiple peaceful
- 22:39Speaker 1: people facing charges after a fight at Cindy's Friendly Tavern
- 22:42Speaker 1: happened over the weekends parking lot early Saturday morning. Bartender
- 22:45Speaker 1: said people facing charges that have caused disturbances at the
- 22:48Speaker 1: bar multiple times in the past and now have been
- 22:51Speaker 1: asked never to show back up again. Bottles broken, several
- 22:54Speaker 1: people injured during the fight, a female punched in the face,
- 22:57Speaker 1: multiple nine to one one calls. HMM employer said the
- 23:01Speaker 1: police responds almost immediate props to the police from several
- 23:05Speaker 1: different agencies included They said the individuals involved will be
- 23:07Speaker 1: trespassed if they return to the property after the police
- 23:10Speaker 1: investigated two arrests, one tyj one where ty ju A N.

- 24:12Speaker 1: to detalk station stack oh stupid five one three, seven,

- 24:19Speaker 1: rather talk, that's great. With me, But let's talk about
- 24:22Speaker 1: some schadenfreude. I hate bullfighting, so I have to admit
- 24:28Speaker 1: to a s my slight smile on my face when
- 24:31Speaker 1: I read what happened to this guy. Because I hate bullfighting.
- 24:34Speaker 1: I think it is absolute, one hundred percent animal cruelty.
- 24:36Speaker 1: There's nothing macho about torturing another animal, even though I
- 24:41Speaker 1: have a great size advantage over you, and you do
- 24:42Speaker 1: run the risk of serious injury when you're a matador.
- 24:45Speaker 1: Welcome to Jose Antonio Morante. Camacho, described as a top
- 24:51Speaker 1: Spanish bullfighter. King of the Bullfighters is his moniker his
- 24:57Speaker 1: ring name Morante de la puebl Competing with the fourth
- 25:02Speaker 1: bull of the afternoon, a bull named Clandestino in the
- 25:06Speaker 1: bull ring in Seville yesterday. Bronte competing during the tenth
- 25:11Speaker 1: event of the popular April Fair, trying to control the
- 25:15Speaker 1: bull when it charged at his chest, knocking him down.
- 25:18Speaker 1: As he tried to evade the bull, one of the
- 25:21Speaker 1: bullsharms caught him in the buttock region. He was seen
- 25:26Speaker 1: in some distress clutching the area of the injury before
- 25:29Speaker 1: fellow bullfighters carried him out of the ring. Rushed to
- 25:32Speaker 1: the hospital and a medical report revealed the extent of
- 25:34Speaker 1: his injuries following a two hour surgery. According to the report,
- 25:38Speaker 1: let's quote it. It is a bullhorn wound on the
- 25:41Speaker 1: posterior anal margin with a trajectory of about ten centimeters,
- 25:45Speaker 1: partially damaging the anal sphincter muscles in a perforation of
- 25:48Speaker 1: the posterior wall of the rectum of one point five centimeters.
- 25:53Speaker 1: The intervention consisted of washing the wound, repairing the rector
- 25:55Speaker 1: wall and the sphincter apparatus, leaving a suction drain in
- 25:58Speaker 1: the post anal and rectoral space. What yeah, let's call
- 26:06Speaker 1: that instant karma. I love the conclusion. The incident soured
- 26:12Speaker 1: the rest of the event, with people now worried for
- 26:15Speaker 1: the health of Morante. His health is being monitored. Over
- 26:19Speaker 1: to shaden Freud in number two, we always say what
- 26:21Speaker 1: happens to people who molest children or otherwise bring them
- 26:24Speaker 1: out harm to children once they are prosecuted and sentenced
- 26:26Speaker 1: to prison, What happens to them? Joe all the time?
- 26:30Speaker 1: It's widely documented prisoner who was jailed for seriously injuring
- 26:37Speaker 1: a baby, specifically attacking and injuring a four month old
- 26:42Speaker 1: baby Cassim Afsaal inmate it a British prison, attacked by
- 26:49Speaker 1: four of his fellow prisoners in February twenty twenty four.
- 26:53Speaker 1: The Crown Court heard the attack was so severe one
- 26:56Speaker 1: of the victims testicles had quote died close quote and
- 27:00Speaker 1: may have to be surgically removed. Yes, he was in
- 27:03Speaker 1: prison for attacking a four month old baity. Four prisoners
- 27:06Speaker 1: they were named specifically Zabu Abdu mohammede whatever got a
- 27:10Speaker 1: bunch of them. They admitted to causing him grievous bodily
- 27:13Speaker 1: heart injury. He says without intent. Prosecutor told the court
- 27:18Speaker 1: defendants entered a victim's cell before kicking and punching him,
- 27:21Speaker 1: saying he had no escape. Was all filmed on a
- 27:23Speaker 1: mobile mobile phone too, by one of the people beating
- 27:26Speaker 1: him up. What the attack was filmed on mobile phone
- 27:32Speaker 1: by Abu Manniheim. The court heard Abu Manihim had fifty
- 27:36Speaker 1: three convictions for eighty five offenses including battery, attempted robbery,
- 27:39Speaker 1: possession of a weapon, robbery after an assaulting an emergency worker.
- 27:42Speaker 1: They went on to describe the other folks convictions. It's
- 27:47Speaker 1: clear the four of you went into a cell that
- 27:49Speaker 1: this was planned and there was a plan to film
- 27:51Speaker 1: it and share it on WhatsApp, said the judge. Judge
- 27:57Speaker 1: said the victim had been made ware of the attack.
- 27:59Speaker 1: He didn't know when, but somebody had given him an
- 28:02Speaker 1: improvised weapon to try to defend himself. However, he was
- 28:05Speaker 1: attacked with kicks, stormps blows for just under minute with
- 28:09Speaker 1: an improvised weapon. Judge Pett. Yeah, Judge pets that he
- 28:13Speaker 1: didn't see the filming is any less culpable than the attacking.
- 28:17Speaker 1: Calling the injuries severe, judge said the most serious came
- 28:20Speaker 1: from a stamp to his right testicle, which has effectively
- 28:24Speaker 1: died and is likely to need surgical removal. Do what
- 28:28Speaker 1: the heens? He sentenced the foordable further two and a
- 28:31Speaker 1: half years in prison consecutive to their current sentences, which
- 28:34Speaker 1: result in delays in their earliest release dates. Of course

- 29:13Speaker 1: get the latest on Iran. I don't even know if
- 29:15Speaker 1: Daniel Davis knows what the hell's going on with Ron. Well,
- 29:17Speaker 1: we get him at a thirty every Tuesday for an
- 29:20Speaker 1: analysis of things involving war. Here we go back to
- 29:24Speaker 1: the stack of stupid. Ah. Congratulations. Police officer in Washington, DC,
- 29:29Speaker 1: previously celebrated as the first openly gay union chair. As
- 29:38Speaker 1: if that matters. He was previously celebrated as the first
- 29:42Speaker 1: openly gay police union chair. He's now been accused of
- 29:45Speaker 1: grooming someone that he thought was a teenage boy for sex.
- 29:49Speaker 1: Forty seven year old YEP Lieutenant Matthew mal charged with
- 29:53Speaker 1: soliciting child porn and two counts of sexual solicitation of
- 29:56Speaker 1: a minor. New York Post reporting on this one. Hmmm,
- 30:00Speaker 1: get a load of this for parents out there. The
- 30:04Speaker 1: officer had been communicating with a person that he thought
- 30:07Speaker 1: was a fifteen year old named Nate on Reddit. I'm
- 30:11Speaker 1: sure a lot of my listeners know about the site Reddit.
- 30:15Speaker 1: He was in the sites r hashtag a gay young
- 30:21Speaker 1: old dating subpage. That's a red flag anyway. This pervert
- 30:29Speaker 1: was the leader of the DC Police Union from twenty
- 30:31Speaker 1: sixteen to twenty eighteen, accused of sending sexually explicit messages
- 30:34Speaker 1: and naked photos to the actual police detective who was
- 30:37Speaker 1: claiming to be a fifteen year old boy. And we
- 30:41Speaker 1: just showed the suspect wearing a jail outfit. He shared
- 30:44Speaker 1: details about his identity with the quote unquote team, who
- 30:47Speaker 1: was actually Hartford County Sheriff's off at Detective Christopher Sargent
- 30:51Speaker 1: corner the post article. In one particularly skin crawling exchange,
- 30:55Speaker 1: Maul wrote that he wished quote it was two eleven,
- 30:58Speaker 1: twenty seven, so oh bad clothes quote, a sick reference
- 31:03Speaker 1: to the date that he thought the boy's sixteenth birthday
- 31:06Speaker 1: was showing up, which meant he would reach the age
- 31:08Speaker 1: of consent in Maryland. Get to learn a fun fact
- 31:12Speaker 1: about the state of American Maryland Age of consent sixteen.
- 31:15Speaker 1: Conversations grew more sexually charged as the weeks progressed, Maul
- 31:18Speaker 1: allegedly sent several explicit images of his body and eventually
- 31:22Speaker 1: asked the detective posing as the child to send a
- 31:24Speaker 1: picture of his penis and naked self. They reportedly arranged
- 31:29Speaker 1: meet in Abingdon, Maryland. Maul was arrested when he showed
- 31:33Speaker 1: up with the address that he thought was the teenager's home.
- 31:38Speaker 1: Idiots doing idiot things because they're idiots. Yeah. It always
- 31:44Speaker 1: just delights me to knowlan to think that there's some
- 31:46Speaker 1: twisted individual out there currently engaged in a conversation with
- 31:49Speaker 1: someone they think as a twelve year old, and it's
- 31:51Speaker 1: actually a police detective, and that person is going to
- 31:53Speaker 1: get busted. See here. A dispute of the that's right,
- 31:59Speaker 1: Joe dispute over the preparation of schnitzel turned violent in
- 32:04Speaker 1: the Aryan town of Geezer Hearing, which required police intervention.
- 32:09Speaker 1: Sixty one year old man verbally and physically assaulted his
- 32:11Speaker 1: neighbor over what he said was a loud pounding of
- 32:14Speaker 1: the meat involving in making schnitzel. That's why you pulled
- 32:19Speaker 1: the article out, isn't it, Joe? Plus it involves German things.
- 32:24Speaker 1: Older man went to the neighbor's apartment on Saturday, insulting
- 32:27Speaker 1: him slapping him in the face. Not clear if the
- 32:29Speaker 1: alleged loud pounding occurred during Germany's legally mandated quiet hours,
- 32:35Speaker 1: generally between ten pm and six am. Yes, they have
- 32:37Speaker 1: those in Germany. Let's see what Pat's got real quick, Pat,
- 32:40Speaker 1: Happy Tuesday, Welcome to the show.
- 32:43Speaker 2: Thanks to you, Brian.
- 32:46Speaker 6: I'm eighty four. I like my little Tran sister radios
- 32:50Speaker 6: from the back of the fifties and sixties. But I
- 32:53Speaker 6: went up to Wally's yesterday.
- 32:56Speaker 2: I was took him for another.
- 32:57Speaker 6: Little transistor because I use them until they go out. Okay,
- 33:02Speaker 6: But anyway, you cannot buy an AM FM radio. Everything
- 33:09Speaker 6: is FM, even the clock radios. Yeah, and I mean,
- 33:13Speaker 6: thank god I saved the kids radios. I mean, I've
- 33:18Speaker 6: got a one that's a mustard jar that my daughter had,
- 33:23Speaker 6: but it is just an AM yep. So I keep
- 33:27Speaker 6: my FM radio and I keep that one. But it's
- 33:32Speaker 6: just that you got to save if.
- 33:34Speaker 2: As long as it's working, well.
- 33:36Speaker 6: If you've got a AM and FM, you can you know,
- 33:40Speaker 6: I don't listen that much.
- 33:42Speaker 1: Let me just let me just cut to the chase
- 33:43Speaker 1: here in about two seconds while you were talking. I
- 33:45Speaker 1: searched AM radio on Amazon. There are a gazillion AM
- 33:49Speaker 1: radio still out there in the world being manufactured, which
- 33:51Speaker 1: are easy to acquire, even ones that have a crank
- 33:54Speaker 1: on them. So if you run out of batteries, you
- 33:55Speaker 1: can actually charge it from the radio unit itself in
- 33:57Speaker 1: case of emergency. I appreciate you go in to old
- 34:00Speaker 1: school and there's still a lot of people that listen
- 34:01Speaker 1: to terrestrial radio. I understand that the wave is to
- 34:04Speaker 1: move to the iHeartMedia app So if you've got a
- 34:06Speaker 1: smart device, even at eighty four a lot of people
- 34:08Speaker 1: have them, you can stream the audio through that. But
- 34:11Speaker 1: if you really want something reliable in times apparel in trouble,
- 34:14Speaker 1: they are readily available out there in the world. In fact,
- 34:17Speaker 1: I remember legislation being proposed because automobile manufacturers weren't putting
- 34:21Speaker 1: AM radios in cars, and I don't know whatever happened
- 34:24Speaker 1: to that, but you know, I mean about mandates and
- 34:27Speaker 1: edicts to what manufacturers have to do. Not a huge fan,
- 34:30Speaker 1: even though it might have saved more AM radios out there.
- 34:32Speaker 1: Five fifty sent the talk station, so I say, XI
- 34:36Speaker 1: fifty five kr CD talk station my name is Brian Thomas,
- 34:41Speaker 1: hosted fifty five KSS Morning Show. Couldn't do this job
- 34:43Speaker 1: without Joe Trecker, Executive ucer Er Internet Research Grewer. Are
- 34:46Speaker 1: and great guy and I'm so happy you have him
- 34:48Speaker 1: back where he belongs. Happy to hear from you too.
- 34:51Speaker 1: If you want to call love, I love the calls
- 34:53Speaker 1: and enjoy engaging in the conversation five one, three, seven, four, nine,
- 34:56Speaker 1: fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eight two three talk
- 34:58Speaker 1: or pound five fifty on eight and t phones. Important
- 35:00Speaker 1: thing to do is fifty five Casa dot com get
- 35:02Speaker 1: your I Heart media app. If you're like Pat and
- 35:04Speaker 1: you are concerned about getting AM content, you can always
- 35:07Speaker 1: get it fifty five cars dot com. It is streamed.
- 35:09Speaker 1: But and going back to Pat's part about the disappearance
- 35:12Speaker 1: of the AM radios, Yes, several people sending me links
- 35:14Speaker 1: from Yes Amazon, which I search myself. They are out there.
- 35:17Speaker 1: There are tons of available options if you still want
- 35:19Speaker 1: to go terrestrial. So the AM radio has not gone
- 35:23Speaker 1: the way of the DODO quite yet. Coming up seven thirty,
- 35:26Speaker 1: Toms Awastowski We the People Convention dot orgers where you
- 35:28Speaker 1: find them get his podcast weekly USDA shutting down stores
- 35:31Speaker 1: because of snap fraud. Love it my caller yesterday, we'll
- 35:36Speaker 1: call it snap theft. Latest on the property tax issue
- 35:40Speaker 1: here in the state of Ohio, which kind of MutS
- 35:43Speaker 1: direct me over to the local story about since a
- 35:45Speaker 1: public school the spending they recently approved and they got
- 35:48Speaker 1: some cuts to make. It's pretty frightening stuff. So a
- 35:51Speaker 1: property tax issue, and then why are Ohioans against data centers?
- 35:55Speaker 1: A lot of reasons for that, but the question is
- 35:57Speaker 1: can you stop it from moving forward? And if it
- 35:59Speaker 1: is moving forward, which clearly is these data centers are
- 36:01Speaker 1: moving forward, do you want to be part of it?
- 36:03Speaker 1: Or do you want to let others take advantage of
- 36:06Speaker 1: whatever is to be gained from them. That's kind of
- 36:09Speaker 1: what I wrestle with because overall, I wish AI was
- 36:12Speaker 1: not even a thing, and I know, oh my god,
- 36:13Speaker 1: societal benefits and how much greater things are going to
- 36:15Speaker 1: be yet. Okay, there's all kinds of pluses, but there's
- 36:17Speaker 1: a hell of a lot of negatives too. Let's just
- 36:20Speaker 1: rewind time and never go down that road. Joe, do
- 36:23Speaker 1: you remember the Trapper Keeper episode from South Park? Do
- 36:26Speaker 1: you kind of feel like we're there right now? Yeah,
- 36:28Speaker 1: I know. When AI starts absorbing you physically, then you're
- 36:33Speaker 1: going to see the full realization of comedy come to life.
- 36:36Speaker 1: So then data centers stay in the picture because inside
- 36:39Speaker 1: scoop it bright a part news which we do every
- 36:41Speaker 1: Tuesday at eight to five. Today, Winton Hall, author of Code,
- 36:45Speaker 1: read the Left, the Right, China and the Race to
- 36:47Speaker 1: control AI, followed by the Daniel Davis Deep Dive with
- 36:50Speaker 1: the latest on Iran and all I can draw from
- 36:53Speaker 1: the latest on Iran conclusions this morning is nobody seems
- 36:55Speaker 1: to know whether there's going to be a continuation of
- 36:57Speaker 1: the peace negotiations or not. The Iranian suggest not going forward.
- 37:01Speaker 1: There's all these talks about jd Vance getting on a
- 37:03Speaker 1: plane this morning to go to Islamabab, but nothing solidified yet.
- 37:08Speaker 1: But according to Donald Trump, the bombs start dropping tomorrow evening.
- 37:12Speaker 1: That's the deadline. The Iridians said it was tonight around
- 37:15Speaker 1: midnight or something Tehran time, but Donald Trump came out
- 37:17Speaker 1: and said, no, no, no, no, it's Wednesday, Eastern time. Prayers
- 37:22Speaker 1: I think are in order, real quick. Public school spent
- 37:25Speaker 1: it because I'm confused by this. If you have a
- 37:27Speaker 1: better grasp of the SINCI public schools problems going on,
- 37:30Speaker 1: give me a shout, but I was reading the reporting
- 37:32Speaker 1: from Shan de Lacy from WCPO Delancey. Rather, it's apology
- 37:35Speaker 1: Sean WCPO reporting on the first meeting of the since
- 37:40Speaker 1: AI public Schools at least since that alleged ice assignment,
- 37:45Speaker 1: that kind of swirling around. Weird thing going on with
- 37:48Speaker 1: a local law enforcement agency going into public schools. But
- 37:50Speaker 1: regarding the balancing of budget, in a presentation, Sean writes,
- 37:56Speaker 1: administration officials explained the difference between what the disc would
- 38:00Speaker 1: like to spend to achieve its goal, remember Cincinnati Public
- 38:05Speaker 1: Schools versus what the district's target expending to meet expected
- 38:10Speaker 1: revenue was, it says, And all I can do is
- 38:14Speaker 1: read what is reported in front of me. The district
- 38:16Speaker 1: would like to spend. Are you ready six hundred and
- 38:21Speaker 1: eighty eight million, eight hundred thousand dollars, Yeah, you're getting
- 38:29Speaker 1: close to a billion. And then what the district's target
- 38:34Speaker 1: expending to meet expected revenues was, which is ten percent
- 38:37Speaker 1: of that sixty million, nine hundred thousand dollars. Where did
- 38:40Speaker 1: this six hundred and eighty eight million figure come from? Anyway?
- 38:44Speaker 1: What they did approve was spending three hundred and twenty
- 38:47Speaker 1: nine million, seven hundred and forty eight bucks and change
- 38:50Speaker 1: to fund staff positions for fiscal year twenty twenty seven.
- 38:53Speaker 1: That's the annual cost for just staff, and that apparently
- 38:59Speaker 1: is the requirements to meet state and federal compliance requirements
- 39:02Speaker 1: for those under the district's collective bargaining agreements, so that's
- 39:05Speaker 1: a must spend amount. They didn't approve what was described
- 39:10Speaker 1: as seventy million, six hundred thousand change managed by the
- 39:15Speaker 1: Central Office. Tens of millions is going to be considered
- 39:18Speaker 1: and either approved or cut before the funding deadline in June,
- 39:23Speaker 1: So apparently they got some problems on their hands. Board
- 39:25Speaker 1: President Brandon Craig talking about the looming cuts and that
- 39:29Speaker 1: they could be painful. Some people will be hurt by
- 39:31Speaker 1: the decisions we make, and that will be a hard
- 39:33Speaker 1: and tough and rough situation to deal with, but it's
- 39:35Speaker 1: just something that we need to acknowledge. Right, it's a
- 39:37Speaker 1: finite supply of money, and apparently almost a billion dollars
- 39:41Speaker 1: in in once we all have once not all of
- 39:45Speaker 1: our ones could be addressed by government clearly, then the
- 39:50Speaker 1: passage of a new tax levy that is on the
- 39:53Speaker 1: table for the board to discuss that would go on
- 39:54Speaker 1: November's ballot since a Federation of Teacher's president Julie Seller's
- 39:58Speaker 1: saying put that issue for the voters. It's the board's
- 40:01Speaker 1: responsibility that the district has the financial means in order
- 40:04Speaker 1: to operate. But way board member Ben Lindy warning that
- 40:09Speaker 1: the district administration and board members, you're gonna have to
- 40:12Speaker 1: do some splaining. You better come up with a good
- 40:15Speaker 1: reason to pass the levy when everyone is paying higher prices,
- 40:18Speaker 1: he said, if we're asking voters for more money, it
- 40:21Speaker 1: has to be for a very clear reason, and we
- 40:24Speaker 1: have to have an argument for why that will lead
- 40:27Speaker 1: to the two results that are different. Well, and I
- 40:31Speaker 1: read the results that are different. I think about test scores.
- 40:34Speaker 1: Will additional money thrown at the Cincinni Public schools result
- 40:37Speaker 1: in a higher test score? Will it result in better education?
- 40:40Speaker 1: I should probably more clearly stated. I know some people
- 40:43Speaker 1: have problems with the testing that's done, standardized testing, but
- 40:47Speaker 1: what we see in this country, and I lament this
- 40:49Speaker 1: every single day, this seemingly intentional dumbing down of our
- 40:53Speaker 1: young people. When schools get more and more and more
- 40:55Speaker 1: per student tens of thousands of dollars per student. And
- 40:59Speaker 1: they come up and they get more than forty percent
- 41:02Speaker 1: of children to read at grade level or perform mathematics
- 41:06Speaker 1: at grade level. And I just randomly pulled the forty
- 41:08Speaker 1: percent out. It's never above fifty anyway. That to me
- 41:11Speaker 1: is a sign of failure. And does anyone think that
- 41:14Speaker 1: throwing more money at it will solve the problem? This
- 41:17Speaker 1: transcends money. This isn't for want of a building, or
- 41:20Speaker 1: for want of a desk, or for want of supplies.
- 41:26Speaker 1: Something's wrong with our children out in the world. Maybe
- 41:31Speaker 1: it is the education system itself. I think that's why
- 41:33Speaker 1: more and more people are embracing the idea that they
- 41:35Speaker 1: have a choice and they're going to start sending their
- 41:36Speaker 1: children someplace else, reducing the amount of money that the
- 41:40Speaker 1: sends in a public schools might need. If they're serving
- 41:42Speaker 1: fewer children, why would they want and ask for more money.
- 41:46Speaker 1: Maybe there's a reason out there that hasn't been clearly articulated.
- 41:49Speaker 1: But going back to the board meeting, and you better
- 41:50Speaker 1: come up with a good reason if you're going to
- 41:52Speaker 1: go out and ask the populace to spend more money
- 41:54Speaker 1: on the public schools. What do they want this money for?
- 42:00Speaker 1: Six hundred and eighty eight million dollars? And I don't
- 42:04Speaker 1: know what that figure is that spread out over multiple
- 42:06Speaker 1: years or decades or something, But anyhow, I don't know
- 42:08Speaker 1: where the demand comes from. But they're going to be
- 42:12Speaker 1: asking for will you vote for a school Levey? Will
- 42:15Speaker 1: you vote to increase the amount of money that comes
- 42:17Speaker 1: out of your check to support the Cincinni public schools.
- 42:20Speaker 1: It's a legitimate question. Five three seven four nine to
- 42:23Speaker 1: fifty five hundred, eight hundred eighty two to three talk
- 42:25Speaker 1: pound five fifty hundred at and T phone. Todd Zenzer
- 42:27Speaker 1: is out there somewhere, so the citizen watchdog, and I'm
- 42:29Speaker 1: looking forward to hearing his reporting on the sincy on
- 42:32Speaker 1: track signs that are going up since he on track
- 42:36Speaker 1: lines the uh, well, our our lords and masters and
- 42:38Speaker 1: city government want you to know where the railroad money
- 42:41Speaker 1: is going. People have been asking the questions a lot.
- 42:43Speaker 1: Where in the hell's that railroad money? One point six
- 42:46Speaker 1: billion dollars sale? That money parked in an interest bearing account,
- 42:49Speaker 1: invested supposed to get a great return on investment. Notably,
- 42:53Speaker 1: I think they said they've already generated where was that figure?
- 42:58Speaker 1: Fifty six million dollars in the first year was generated,
- 43:00Speaker 1: and it's earmarked, of course for existing infrastructure. Swirling questions
- 43:04Speaker 1: about what constitutes existing infrastructure, they say the railroad fund's
- 43:07Speaker 1: going to earn an additional fifty eight million dollars next year.
- 43:11Speaker 1: But as of January, only five percent has been spent
- 43:14Speaker 1: of that eighty five million dollar railway money from the
- 43:17Speaker 1: prior two years. It's just sitting there, although according to
- 43:23Speaker 1: Scott Wartman from The enquire the pace is now picked up.
- 43:27Speaker 1: Since April tenth, the city has spent fourteen percent of
- 43:29Speaker 1: the railroad dollars or eleven point eight million dollars. And
- 43:32Speaker 1: that's where the signs come in. Look closely. City on
- 43:35Speaker 1: Track signs put out into the world at a cost
- 43:38Speaker 1: to two hundred and fifty dollars each, so you know
- 43:41Speaker 1: where the money's going among the fifty signs and the
- 43:44Speaker 1: current projects. From the fifty signs for the current projects,
- 43:48Speaker 1: that means fifty projects, I guess have gotten some funding.
- 43:50Speaker 1: You got a ten point nine million dollar allocation for
- 43:53Speaker 1: Warsaw Avenue safety project in East Price, a pricell seven
- 43:58Speaker 1: point eight million to repave and curbs in bond Hill
- 44:01Speaker 1: roseland wentin Hills and spring Grove Village and oh Lo
- 44:04Speaker 1: and behold, this was going to be the target of
- 44:06Speaker 1: my most recent ire since they paved Sunset. I came
- 44:09Speaker 1: up Montana the other day and it's a mess. It
- 44:14Speaker 1: was worse than Sunset. It was. If you drive on
- 44:16Speaker 1: Montana you know exactly what I'm talking about. Anyway, look
- 44:18Speaker 1: for the sign, the city on track sign. Six point
- 44:23Speaker 1: nine million dollars allocated for the rehab of Montana Avenue.
- 44:26Speaker 1: So you got that going for you, which is nice.
- 44:29Speaker 1: Others are still wondering about the slow trickle of the
- 44:31Speaker 1: pace six sixteen right now. If if you buy KR see
- 44:35Speaker 1: the talk station, feel free to give me a call.
- 44:37Speaker 1: But the call you definitely want to make us to
- 44:39Speaker 1: cover since he call or send six twenty one Happy
- 44:43Speaker 1: Tuesday five and three seven eight hundred eight two three
- 44:47Speaker 1: talk im by fifty on eight and T phones. Chris
- 44:49Speaker 1: Smitheman sent out a huge message yesterday during the Smith Ament.
- 44:52Speaker 1: Yes it is possible for black people to be racist too,
- 44:54Speaker 1: and he went into great detail about that. Just if
- 44:56Speaker 1: he didn't get a chance to listen to Christopher Man,
- 44:58Speaker 1: He's he can get on a tear when he's on
- 45:02Speaker 1: a roll, and he typically is. And you know, if
- 45:04Speaker 1: you lose Alan Dershowitz, if you're Democrats and you lose
- 45:06Speaker 1: Alan Derschwitz, doesn't mean anything. Doesn't mean anything that he
- 45:09Speaker 1: is now after what since nineteen fifty nine, he is
- 45:11Speaker 1: converting to Republicans. He wrote a good op ed open
- 45:14Speaker 1: letter to the Democrat Party out there, the centrist to
- 45:17Speaker 1: the extent any of them still exist, verse Alan Dershowitch Jewish,
- 45:21Speaker 1: and I think that's one of the reasons for his
- 45:22Speaker 1: op ed piece. But he has just witnessed the crazy, insane,
- 45:27Speaker 1: insane shift to the left and the Democrat Party. It's
- 45:29Speaker 1: been taken over by a bunch of people who are
- 45:32Speaker 1: well openly hospital not even Dutch, just the capitalism, but
- 45:34Speaker 1: actually anti Semitic. And this has always puzzled me. You know,
- 45:39Speaker 1: I formerly I guess I am registered as a lifelong Republican,
- 45:43Speaker 1: but you know me and my libertarian leanings, but I've
- 45:47Speaker 1: never understood the democrats just blind devotion or the Jewish
- 45:53Speaker 1: people's blind devotion to Democrats. And I have a lot
- 45:56Speaker 1: of Jewish friends, most all of them notable exception doctor
- 45:59Speaker 1: j Love you man. They're all Democrats, and I've had
- 46:03Speaker 1: conversations with them about it. I never really have gotten
- 46:05Speaker 1: a clear explanation because it never made sense to me,
- 46:07Speaker 1: because it's always seemed to me the Republicans are the
- 46:09Speaker 1: one that I had support for at least Israel, and
- 46:11Speaker 1: trust me, I realized that being Jewish does not translate
- 46:13Speaker 1: automatically to being in favor of the Israel state. You
- 46:17Speaker 1: struggle with that issue, That's not my issue to struggle with.
- 46:20Speaker 1: But anyway, Dershwitz right, So I'm a lifelong Democrat. I
- 46:22Speaker 1: started campaigning for the party's local candidates as a teenager
- 46:25Speaker 1: in Brooklyn, New York. Registered Democrat for sixty seven years,
- 46:28Speaker 1: made speeches for JFK as a college student, and he said,
- 46:31Speaker 1: I can count on one hand the number of Republicans
- 46:33Speaker 1: I've ever supported for any office. I still disagree strongly
- 46:39Speaker 1: with the GOP on abortion, separation of church and state, immigration,
- 46:41Speaker 1: healthcare taxes, among other things. That's a lot of issues too,
- 46:44Speaker 1: Yet I've decided to bite the bullet and register as
- 46:48Speaker 1: a Republican, Alan Dershwitz, the Democratic Party has become the
- 46:51Speaker 1: most anti Israel party in US history. Last week, all
- 46:55Speaker 1: but seven Democrats to vote for an arms embargo against
- 46:58Speaker 1: the Jewish state and a vowed enemy of Israel, Abdu
- 47:01Speaker 1: l Sayad is gaining ground in the Democrat campaign for
- 47:06Speaker 1: US senator in Michigan. I got some comments from that
- 47:11Speaker 1: nutcase here in a moment too. There's no denying the
- 47:14Speaker 1: hard left anti Israel wing. The Democratic Party has moved
- 47:16Speaker 1: from the fringe to the mainstream. Until recently, there was
- 47:20Speaker 1: an age gap, with younger voters more strongly opposing Israel,
- 47:23Speaker 1: but recent polls suggests that trend now includes Democrats of
- 47:25Speaker 1: all ages. Republicans have their own anti cinematic fringe, but
- 47:29Speaker 1: for now it remains a fringe. Trust me it is.
- 47:32Speaker 1: I believe that the Democratic Party's hostility to Israel represents
- 47:35Speaker 1: a deeper and more dangerous shift away from the center
- 47:38Speaker 1: and toward a radical approach that is bad for America
- 47:41Speaker 1: and the free world. So I intend to work hard
- 47:44Speaker 1: to prevent the Democrats from gaining control of the House
- 47:46Speaker 1: and senate. Those who share my concerns about the increasing
- 47:50Speaker 1: influence of radicalism in the Democratic Party to vote campaign
- 47:54Speaker 1: and contribute for continued Republican control of Congress. I Alan
- 47:59Speaker 1: Derschwitz will contribute money to the Republican candidates, campaign for them,
- 48:02Speaker 1: make speeches at Republican events, urge pro israel Americans to
- 48:05Speaker 1: change party affiliation or at least vote against Democrats until
- 48:10Speaker 1: something change changes. I will vote Republican for representative, senator,
- 48:14Speaker 1: and president. I wish I could designate myself as a
- 48:18Speaker 1: foreign policy Republican, but there's no such option, So I've
- 48:22Speaker 1: got to go whole hog. By registering as a Republican
- 48:25Speaker 1: rather than an independent, maybe I can have some influence
- 48:28Speaker 1: on moving some Republican policies toward the center. I have
- 48:32Speaker 1: given up on trying to change the Democratic Party. My
- 48:36Speaker 1: main goal is to send a message that majority traditional
- 48:38Speaker 1: Democratic voters can't accept what it is becoming a replica
- 48:42Speaker 1: of left wing European parties that are hurting their countries.
- 48:47Speaker 1: Amen Americans generally tend toward political moderation, but both parties
- 48:51Speaker 1: have become more extreme, in part due to low turnout
- 48:54Speaker 1: primaries that attract passionate ideologues. Primary votes are so damn important.
- 49:00Speaker 1: It's one of the reasons why I wanted to chime
- 49:01Speaker 1: in on what Dershwitz was writing about. Who just ignore it?
- 49:04Speaker 1: I mean, it's bad enough you don't show up on
- 49:05Speaker 1: election day, but primary days when you're really looking for
- 49:07Speaker 1: the best possible candidate to run in November, and you
- 49:09Speaker 1: don't bother, you passed up your opportunity. Sorry. Younger voters,
- 49:16Speaker 1: he concludes, who tend to be more extreme or playing
- 49:18Speaker 1: a more active role in politics, they may moderate as
- 49:22Speaker 1: they get older, but the trend among Democrats is unmistakable,
- 49:24Speaker 1: a hard left turn that is most evident in changing
- 49:28Speaker 1: attitudes towards Israel. If the Democrats play a heavy electoral price,
- 49:32Speaker 1: perhaps they'll wise up and move back to the center,
- 49:35Speaker 1: where I Alan Dershwitz and others could rejoin it. I
- 49:38Speaker 1: don't know if that's realistically possible, but it's worth a try. Yeah,
- 49:43Speaker 1: Alan Derschwitz has left the building, and I guarantee you
- 49:46Speaker 1: there's a lot of Democrats that have to feel the
- 49:48Speaker 1: same way. And who in the hell is this? Doctor?
- 49:52Speaker 1: Abu l sayed, Guy, wait till you hear what he
- 49:54Speaker 1: had to say about Jdvans and Jdvans's white wife. Horrific,
- 49:59Speaker 1: reminding me of some of the comments from Christopher Smithman
- 50:02Speaker 1: yesterday on the smith Event six twenty six. Right now,
- 50:03Speaker 1: we'll get to that after Local Stories fifty five krs
- 50:06Speaker 1: the talk station six one fifty five KRCD talk station
- 50:11Speaker 1: Happy Tuesday at local stories here if you'd like to
- 50:15Speaker 1: call up, prefer that five one three seven four nine

- 50:20Speaker 1: for the July fourth event, and I was reading this.
- 50:24Speaker 1: The officials there are concerned because of what happened last
- 50:26Speaker 1: year and the chaos hundreds of unaccompanied juveniles, which is
- 50:30Speaker 1: a growing phenomenon. And this is what's got me looming
- 50:33Speaker 1: in the back of my head. River Fest, you know,
- 50:36Speaker 1: the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of our country. And
- 50:39Speaker 1: I talked to the folks who are planning this falls Riverfest,
- 50:42Speaker 1: and they are planning on a huge event, and I
- 50:45Speaker 1: just worried about the chaos in downtown Cincinnati for that event.
- 50:47Speaker 1: What officials are going to do to try to stop
- 50:49Speaker 1: it from happening before it happens anyone over in Blue Ash.
- 50:53Speaker 1: After reviewing what happened last year, they said no one
- 50:55Speaker 1: under eighteen is going to be allowed at the fourth
- 50:57Speaker 1: of July celebration unless they have a parent or guardian
- 50:59Speaker 1: with court to the city of Blue Ash. This crackdown
- 51:04Speaker 1: unaccompanied miners. Looking back at the twenty twenty five Summit
- 51:09Speaker 1: Park event. Police in Blue Ash said hundreds of unacompanied
- 51:13Speaker 1: juveniles intentionally caused panics, setting off fireworks. For example, one
- 51:17Speaker 1: fireworks burned one police officer. Four juveniles and two eighteen
- 51:20Speaker 1: year olds were arrested facing charges of disorderly conduct, according
- 51:23Speaker 1: to the Blue Ash Police. Blue Ash Police being with
- 51:26Speaker 1: Fox nineteen said well thirteen year old was arrested in
- 51:30Speaker 1: connection with the assaultant officer last year, but that charge
- 51:33Speaker 1: was later dismissed. Swirling question marks on why. Rachel Murray,
- 51:37Speaker 1: the spokesperson, explained yesterday officials of putting an emphasis on
- 51:40Speaker 1: safety after last year's problem. Fence perimeter with four designated

- 53:04Speaker 1: happened yesterday. He probably got stuck in the traffic. If
- 53:07Speaker 1: you take I seventy one seventy five in northern Kentucky,
- 53:09Speaker 1: pedestrian was hit. Dispatchers at all southbound lanes of that
- 53:14Speaker 1: were closed multiple hours. If you yeah, I was on
- 53:16Speaker 1: the traffic every report yesterday morning. Ear longer assistant Police
- 53:21Speaker 1: Chief Mark Clark was asked if police had determined why
- 53:23Speaker 1: the person who was killed was walking on the highway
- 53:26Speaker 1: at that hour. Apparently not, he said, not fully at
- 53:30Speaker 1: this time, which is why the details are so limited.
- 53:32Speaker 1: There's just so many unanswered questions right now that we're
- 53:34Speaker 1: trying to dig through it. Highway shut down. They state
- 53:37Speaker 1: had to be. They had to shut down the highway
- 53:39Speaker 1: because of safety of the drivers and tool of course,
- 53:41Speaker 1: allow law enforcement to collect evidence. Let us see here, Okay,
- 53:49Speaker 1: more details. I guess we'll find out about it and
- 53:52Speaker 1: finally get a Batavia. One person killed in a crash there.
- 53:54Speaker 1: It happened yesterday about four thirty five in the afternoon
- 53:57Speaker 1: intersection of old State Route thirty two and Zagarade. An

- 54:02Speaker 1: Ford Focus attempted a left turn on di Zagger, hit

- 54:13Speaker 1: Passenger of the Ford Focus, named Loriana Holder, taking a
- 54:16Speaker 1: UC Medical Center by air care with serious injuries, sadly

- 54:34Speaker 1: get that out right. Six thirty five. That's the end
- 54:37Speaker 1: of the segment for the local Story's got more to
- 54:39Speaker 1: talk about coming up, including Yeah, it's six forty one,
- 54:44Speaker 1: it's about ker City Talk Station. I'm very happy at
- 54:46Speaker 1: Tuesday to you. Thank you, Crabbyage Mike for a passing
- 54:52Speaker 1: on the New York Post cover Curse of the Vambino.
- 54:56Speaker 1: Mets have lost ten games in a row since mister
- 54:59Speaker 1: met Zorahon Momdami, Okay, yeah, blame it on that, Mike.
- 55:04Speaker 1: Thanks for calling this morning. Welcome to the fifty five
- 55:06Speaker 1: KRC Morning Show. Appreciate you calling.
- 55:08Speaker 7: Hey, Brian, I just think it's pretty sad, but going
- 55:11Speaker 7: on with the bluish fireworks this year is what the
- 55:15Speaker 7: world's come to. But I remember taking my kids when
- 55:17Speaker 7: they were little they're both almost thirty to the where
- 55:21Speaker 7: it used to be before it was the summer park,
- 55:23Speaker 7: and we used to take two or three coolers a
- 55:25Speaker 7: wagon full of food and everything like that, and then
- 55:28Speaker 7: there wasn't no issues back then. But no, just the
- 55:31Speaker 7: way the world is now, people don't people need to
- 55:36Speaker 7: watch their kids a little better raise them right.
- 55:38Speaker 1: There's an interesting thought, Mike, how many of society's problems,
- 55:41Speaker 1: including the low testing scores in public schools, might be
- 55:44Speaker 1: solved if parents really cared about their children a lot.
- 55:48Speaker 2: Great?
- 55:49Speaker 1: Whatever happened to that?
- 55:50Speaker 2: You know?
- 55:51Speaker 1: And you say that amid a world that seems to
- 55:55Speaker 1: be moving more and more toward it happens all over
- 55:57Speaker 1: the place. I mean even in downtown sin say they
- 55:59Speaker 1: wanted a fun, free k education. Don't you want to
- 56:04Speaker 1: raise your own children, even for a few years, the
- 56:08Speaker 1: formative years, This is like the critical time you should
- 56:11Speaker 1: be spending time with your kids. You want to hand
- 56:13Speaker 1: him off to somebody who's part of a teachers union.
- 56:16Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I got two words for somebody who would
- 56:19Speaker 1: embrace that. As my dad would say, it ain't happy birthday.
- 56:22Speaker 1: Get a grip. I'm sorry. It just breaks my heart,
- 56:28Speaker 1: it really does. Anyway, back over this abdu Lsiad guy.
- 56:31Speaker 1: You probably don't know him, but I hope you don't.
- 56:33Speaker 1: And I hope this guy goes the way of the Dodo.
- 56:35Speaker 1: He's running as a Democrat for US Senate Sea to Michigan,
- 56:42Speaker 1: and he's taken it on the chin online because people
- 56:44Speaker 1: are taking note of what this crazy person has to say.
- 56:46Speaker 1: This is a person who's running for the United States Senate,
- 56:50Speaker 1: and he's not the only one with derange and twisted
- 56:52Speaker 1: things to say about his opponents, notably in this particular case,
- 56:55Speaker 1: Vice President JD. Vans on a podcast appearance, what you
- 57:04Speaker 1: think is going on through Usha's head when he talks
- 57:07Speaker 1: Usha Vance? Jad Vance's wife. They got a family together.
- 57:12Speaker 1: What do you think is going on through Usha's head
- 57:13Speaker 1: when he talks? She's like, damn, I have to sleep
- 57:17Speaker 1: with him. He said this on the Allen Analysis Show.
- 57:22Speaker 1: Whatever that is, he went on, I guess she's pregnant
- 57:26Speaker 1: or so something is happening. You know what, that's a
- 57:29Speaker 1: reverence who of course, can you imagine? He said, he's
- 57:31Speaker 1: got brown kids. At some point he's gonna have a
- 57:34Speaker 1: really awkward conversation with his kids, like, you made your
- 57:37Speaker 1: career hating people who are different. That's his conclusion about
- 57:40Speaker 1: jad Vance's career hating people who are different. He went
- 57:47Speaker 1: on to say the Vance's political philosophy is in his word,
- 57:49Speaker 1: incoherent because the racial make up his family and that
- 57:53Speaker 1: the Vice president's soul is corrupted by power. See, this
- 57:56Speaker 1: is the kind of thing that really, really, really, if
- 57:58Speaker 1: I may be so frank, pisses off a lot of Democrats.
- 58:01Speaker 1: Oh my god, there are actually conservatives out in the
- 58:03Speaker 1: world who might have the audacity to marry a woman
- 58:05Speaker 1: of color, or maybe a conservative woman of color. Existing
- 58:10Speaker 1: in and of itself, it's a foreign concept to them
- 58:13Speaker 1: because they believe that you people of color. Oh, the
- 58:16Speaker 1: Democrats allegiance just by virtue of the color of their skin.
- 58:19Speaker 1: It isn't that in and of itself inherently racist and
- 58:22Speaker 1: fundamentally stupid. Again, going back to the comments at Christopher
- 58:26Speaker 1: Smithman yesterday, along the same lines he went on Sayid said,
- 58:31Speaker 1: I love my brown kids, and I think my brown
- 58:33Speaker 1: kids are just as American as everyone else. JD. Vans
- 58:36Speaker 1: has brown kids who he thinks are less American than
- 58:39Speaker 1: everyone else. He also urged his wife Usha Vance to
- 58:46Speaker 1: well get out of the marriage, in other words, of divorce.
- 58:48Speaker 1: Jadvans now to counter this, Tutor Dixon, former Michigan GEWP
- 58:56Speaker 1: gubernatorial candidate, was asked about this response, when you're running
- 59:00Speaker 1: on racial division, and I think that's an important thing
- 59:03Speaker 1: right out front. Yes, clearly running on racial division and
- 59:07Speaker 1: where none exists, creating it out of whole cloth. When
- 59:12Speaker 1: you're running on racial division, you have to keep stroking race,
- 59:15Speaker 1: stoking rather racism, especially if you're a racist. Amen. Imagine
- 59:20Speaker 1: smugly trying to break up a family because you don't
- 59:23Speaker 1: believe a white man can love his children. Pretty pathetic.
- 59:26Speaker 1: And I think Michigan voters will agree. And one can
- 59:28Speaker 1: only hope. One of many comments against this twisted doctor
- 59:33Speaker 1: abdu El said, don't think it can happen, folks. Orhan
- 59:39Speaker 1: Mandami is the mayor of New York City six forty
- 59:43Speaker 1: six right now fifty five KR see the talk station
- 59:45Speaker 1: Petersbria Calowilliams seventy it's six fifty couple up at six
- 59:51Speaker 1: fifty one to fifty five kr. S DE talk station
- 59:53Speaker 1: Tom Zawastowski. Either people can mention dot or he'll join
- 59:56Speaker 1: us at seven thirty. Great topics you've talked about with
- 59:58Speaker 1: Tom Bright part news, the author of Red Code, the Left,
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: the Right, China and the race to control artificial intelligence.
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: I another topic that Tom's going to be dealing with AI. Hey,
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: he's going to join us at ayoh five. And then
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: Daniel Davis deep dive with the craziness going on with
- 1:00:12Speaker 1: the Are the negotiations on or are they off? No
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: one seems to really know this morning with the proposed
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: negotiations for settlement of the war with Iran in the
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: United States and Israel, keep your popcorn out on that one,
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: Daniel Davis. I'm sure I'll have a lot to comment
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: on that, and you know, relative to nothing, but this
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: could have been in the stack. Is stupid and just
- 1:00:29Speaker 1: we know a few minutes to finish out in this hour.
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: I just am perplexed by this, But it serves to
- 1:00:34Speaker 1: illustrate a broader point because a lot of people in
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: my listening audience, including me, six hundred million dollars given
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: to the Cleveland Browns, multi billion dollar family to build
- 1:00:43Speaker 1: at sports stadium. I hate that it sucks, most notably
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: when you try to get into the stadium. It's really
- 1:00:48Speaker 1: expensive to go there, so it becomes a venue for
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: only the really, really wealthy to enjoy a football game.
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: But moving over to FIFA the World Cup taking place,
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: I guess in the Meadowlands and it's a great You
- 1:01:04Speaker 1: can read the whole lot bit or the whole article
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: by Jason Gay or the over the over at the
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: Wallacley Journal. He was talking about the crazy, crazy reality
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: of stuff in the world. Pays twenty five bucks for
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: a cocktail, eighty dollars to park, and all the expense
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: that there's gone on the word, he said, Now a
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: sweaty one hundred and fifty dollars World Cup train ride
- 1:01:24Speaker 1: from Manhattan to the Meadowlands Swamp. That's the price New
- 1:01:28Speaker 1: Jersey Transit has put on the claustrophobic round trip to
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: its shores this summer for the upcoming Global Soccer extravaganza.
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: The mundane commute passing under the hubs and comes with
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: a complimentary whiff of stale beer and body odor normally
- 1:01:42Speaker 1: thirteen dollars. He writes if you're going to a Springsteen's,
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: maybe the Giants or see the Jets lose. However, for
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: World Cup Soccer one hundred and thirty seven dollars more.
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: He gives some illustrations and some proposals about maybe some
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: other areas where they can make money, like how about
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: charging any bargain hunting pedestrian fifty dollars to walk to
- 1:02:03Speaker 1: the game, which he says parenthetically. I shouldn't say that
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: out loud. They'll probably do it. He said, Hey, our
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: transl overlords didn't come up with rotten idea on the road.
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: They're merely following the lead of the World Cup organizer FIFA,
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: which is turning the upcoming three nation showcase into an
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: epic all American ransack. You know, it's triggered a whole
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: lot of bad publicity. FIFA barely rolls on.
- 1:02:26Speaker 4: He right.
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: Soccer boss Gianni Infantino defends the pricing strategy as a
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: market reflective and critical source of funds for FIFA, saying,
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: all the revenues we generate, we invest them in the
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: organization of the game in two hundred and eleven countries
- 1:02:39Speaker 1: all over the world. So there you go, that's why
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: you're paying one hundred and fifty bucks. Fast forward. In
- 1:02:43Speaker 1: his op ed piece, don't expect a Wall Street Journal
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: sports columnists to condemn capitalism. And here's the point. But
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: the World Cup thrives because soccer is the people's game
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: played around the world with low barriers to entry. Many
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: of the greatest stars come from humble backgrounds. These cups
- 1:02:59Speaker 1: are massive opportunities to grow the sport, to cultivate new
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: and young fans. Instead, this North American one becoming a
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: plorercat's picnic, which FIFA asking are you ready six thousand
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: fifty dollars for entry to what they're calling the pitch
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: side lounge at the opener against Paraguay, and he says,
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: if you're feeling more flush, there's a fancy pants thirty
- 1:03:26Speaker 1: nine thousand, one hundred dollars visa slash Costco two match
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: package which comes with seats to the July final. Hey, Joe,
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: you're the biggest soccer fan I know, thirty nine thousand
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: dollars for two tickets for the final. Ah, you'll watching
- 1:03:44Speaker 1: at home? Yeah, he says, I haven't even gone to
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: the initial cost face by fans traveling to the contests
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: in US, Canada and Mexico from other countries. The four
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: figure flights, expensive hotels, gain day transportation costs, Boston offering
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: a soul sucking choice between an eighty dollars train or
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: a ninety five dollars bus ride, which he does point
- 1:04:07Speaker 1: out that's a steal compared to the trip to New Jersey.
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: None of this especially shocking, He concludes, FIFA simply borrowing
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: from the best at this The US sports ticket market
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: has long been arrogant and absurd. Leagues and teams are compliant,
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: often in paid cahoots with secondary sellers. Franchises that demand
- 1:04:26Speaker 1: public money for stadiums think nothing of turning around and
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: soaking the same public for mediocre seeds, hot dogs, and beer.
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: A warning, an expensive sporting event is usually a lame one.
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: Pricing out hardcore fans creates a quieter room, whether it's
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: the Super Bowl the Final four tennis title. European soccer
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: has lived this reality too, its most passionate supporters crowded
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: out by duller well healed buyers, says Infantino has compared
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: the World Cup to hosting one one hundred and four
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: Super Bowls in one month. There will be some super Bowls,
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: to be sure, there will also be some games that
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: will drag on, like that Jets preseason exhibit. So the
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: former CEO of Liverpool FC in soccer life has been right,
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: waging a rowdy social media battle against the World Cup
- 1:05:07Speaker 1: price explosion. He says, if the average fan can't afford
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: to be in the stadium. Then I think the question
- 1:05:15Speaker 1: is who is the World Cup four? I fear people
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: mayready you know the answer. It's for people stuck on
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty dollars train ride. Six fifty six
- 1:05:27Speaker 1: fifty five kr CD talk station got a half hour port.
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: Thomas Alastowski joins a program at seven thirty. I'll be
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: right back after the news at the top of the hour.
- 1:05:35Speaker 1: Here the top story seven oh six fifty five per
- 1:05:55Speaker 1: CD talk station. Happy Tuesday to you by Tim's looking
- 1:05:58Speaker 1: for the bottom of the hour, I've got Tom Zawastowski
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: from We the People Convention dot org to talk about
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: USDA shutting down stores because of snap fraud. Oh look,
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: Jay's on the phone with a comment about fraud. We're
- 1:06:08Speaker 1: gonna call it theft from now on based on a
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: call we got yesterday. Hold on, Jay, I get your
- 1:06:11Speaker 1: called just a second. We'll talk about that, the latest
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: on the property tax issue here in the state. Plus
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: why are Ohioans against data centers? I mean, I know
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: there's a lot of reasons kind of been throwing that
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: around us since the morning show started this morning. Plus
- 1:06:25Speaker 1: we got to follow up on that one at the
- 1:06:26Speaker 1: eight oh five with the Inside Scoop segment we do
- 1:06:29Speaker 1: every Tuesday. Winton Hall, author of Code, read the Left,
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: the Right, China and the Race to control Ai, and
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: then Daniel Davis Deep dive see if he can sort
- 1:06:37Speaker 1: out what the hell's going in with these negotiations. Will
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: there be a negotiation with the Iranians or not? Question
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: marks still swirling around on whether Jdvans is actually gonna
- 1:06:47Speaker 1: get on a plane this morning. So before we move
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: on to other topics, I did mention Jay's on the phone.
- 1:06:51Speaker 1: You can call two five one, three, seven, four nine
- 1:06:53Speaker 1: fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to three
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: talk pound five fifty on AT and T phones. Hey, Jay,
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: I thought you might call since I mentioned six hundred million.
- 1:07:00Speaker 1: I was going to Browns again. Welcome back.
- 1:07:04Speaker 8: Hey, thanks Brian. Hey, yeah, I couldn't help myself. You know,
- 1:07:07Speaker 8: the last thing you said on that faith article was
- 1:07:10Speaker 8: who are they building these stadiums for? It all the
- 1:07:13Speaker 8: only people that can attend, the ultra wealthy and for
- 1:07:17Speaker 8: the Cleveland Browns that Make no mistake, this stadium was
- 1:07:20Speaker 8: built because people like Matt Hoffman Rhinos up in Columbus
- 1:07:26Speaker 8: got a big fat check from the Cleveland Browns for
- 1:07:29Speaker 8: campaign donations. There was lots of checks going from the
- 1:07:32Speaker 8: Browns to Republican Rhinos. And what I don't understand is
- 1:07:36Speaker 8: where's the FBI, Because how is this different than First
- 1:07:40Speaker 8: Energy where Larry Householder's former Speaker of the House Rhino
- 1:07:44Speaker 8: took a bailout from First Energy and is doing prison
- 1:07:47Speaker 8: time for it. And there's Matt house Matt Hoffman got
- 1:07:52Speaker 8: campaign money from the Cleveland Browns and then took money
- 1:07:55Speaker 8: that did not belong to the state. And I don't
- 1:07:58Speaker 8: care if they voted on it or not. I would
- 1:07:59Speaker 8: love for this. I would love an FBI investigation to
- 1:08:03Speaker 8: get involved and go in front of a judge and say,
- 1:08:06Speaker 8: these unclaimed funds, does the state of Ohio have a
- 1:08:09Speaker 8: claim on Ohio citizens' money that's been unclaimed?
- 1:08:14Speaker 1: Well, there is going to be. I think there's a
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: lawsuit that's already been fought about that, because, like, for example,
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: Joe Strecker actually search the unclaims fund database. What was
- 1:08:21Speaker 1: the check you ended up getting back from them? Joe
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: seven bucks roughly, So it's out there. If you didn't
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: collect your lottery winnings, or if you closed a bank
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: account or and left money, and there's a whole bunch
- 1:08:31Speaker 1: of different sources from it, but it really does belong
- 1:08:34Speaker 1: to a person. That person might not even know the
- 1:08:36Speaker 1: funds are out there and exist, but they are and
- 1:08:39Speaker 1: you can get them back if you fill out a
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: form or something. So there's litigation on that. But insofar
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: as the pay to play kind of thing, if you
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: look back, remember the city of Cincinnati, and you know
- 1:08:48Speaker 1: PG Sittinfeld's problems, the argument was that there was a
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: direct quid pro quo if you if we give you
- 1:08:57Speaker 1: campaign money, then you will vote for or move forward
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: to this particular pet project we want. And that's of
- 1:09:02Speaker 1: course the whole kind of thing that Householder and the
- 1:09:04Speaker 1: crew got caught up with First Energy. We're going to
- 1:09:06Speaker 1: give you a fat bank and we're gonna end up
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: in return getting a one billion dollar or so bailout.
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: So you've got to be able to connect those dots.
- 1:09:15Speaker 1: Donating money to a politician, you know, it's that that
- 1:09:18Speaker 1: Supreme Court case, it's considered speech. You're allowed to donate money.
- 1:09:22Speaker 1: Of course, the expectation is you're going to get something
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: in return. It's implied, but there's no direct agreement made,
- 1:09:30Speaker 1: a specific agreement which would put you over into the
- 1:09:33Speaker 1: criminal realm and end up landing you in PG Sittinfeld territory.
- 1:09:37Speaker 1: Of course, you saw what ultimately happened to that. They
- 1:09:39Speaker 1: kind of ultimately dismissed the whole thing and it's over
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: and done with.
- 1:09:43Speaker 2: So is there a.
- 1:09:47Speaker 8: I would like at least there to be an investigation
- 1:09:49Speaker 8: to get to those facts. As far as I know,
- 1:09:51Speaker 8: there's not been one.
- 1:09:52Speaker 1: You will know, though, Jay, this is what we've learned
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: many times. I mean over the past ten years alone.
- 1:09:57Speaker 1: They're not going to tell you about investigation. They're never
- 1:10:01Speaker 1: gonna top comment about an investigation. One has been launched,
- 1:10:04Speaker 1: they're looking into it. We don't know. There could be hell,
- 1:10:07Speaker 1: it's ripe and fruital terror and fruitful territory to look
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: for it. But if their investigation doesn't turn anything up,
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: you're never gonna know that they investigated and found nothing.
- 1:10:15Speaker 1: I don't think they ever come out and say, well
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: we looked into this and there was no there there.
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: It just goes by the wayside.
- 1:10:20Speaker 9: So yeah, Well, the thing we can do is.
- 1:10:24Speaker 8: Vote in the primary, get rid of these rhinos. Don't
- 1:10:27Speaker 8: vote Rhino, don't vote Democrat. Your primary vote has four
- 1:10:31Speaker 8: hundred times the power, more exp the power than your
- 1:10:34Speaker 8: regular vote. If only twenty five percent of the people
- 1:10:36Speaker 8: show up, So show up and throw these bombs out.
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: You do the same, Jay, Yeah, going back to these
- 1:10:44Speaker 1: crazies that are at these far left people that you know.
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: I'm old enough to remember if you even suggested that
- 1:10:50Speaker 1: you were a socialist in this world, you were outcast,
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: and I know leftists will argue, well, that's part of
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: the problem. And we had the McCarthy arrow on that. Yeah,
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: if you remember the Communist Party, the you know, went
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: after you, they doxed you, you lost your job. You
- 1:11:05Speaker 1: live in a different world now. But the primary is
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: where you separate the wheat from the chaff. And not
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: showing up in the vote in the primaries, well, may
- 1:11:11Speaker 1: mean you lose an opportunity to get rid of one
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: of the people that you know you should get rid
- 1:11:14Speaker 1: of all but name recognition.
- 1:11:18Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: And it is a really biased article, of course, you
- 1:11:22Speaker 1: would expect that from Time dot com. Just Strekker put
- 1:11:24Speaker 1: this one out of my stack this morning when no
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: one was looking. Ohio became a swinging state again. This
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: related to the race between John Houston and Shared Brown.
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: And you talk about money influence coming in the Times
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: suggests that this is maybe the tide is turning against Republicans.
- 1:11:46Speaker 1: They were just spy. The seventy nine million dollars the
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: Senate GOP superpack is set aside this month for Ohio.
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: And obviously they illustrate the fact Donald Trump took the
- 1:11:58Speaker 1: took Ohio all three three times he ran Democrats last
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: won a statewide election in twenty eighteen. But the idea
- 1:12:05Speaker 1: that the Republican Party is so concerned about that the
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: seventy nine million dollars is going to go into this
- 1:12:09Speaker 1: race and has the tide really turned that much? Republicans,
- 1:12:17Speaker 1: they think, are panicking. Claire's sign came earlier this month
- 1:12:20Speaker 1: when the Senate leadership fund the outside political operation with
- 1:12:23Speaker 1: close ties the Senate Majority leader John Thune released its
- 1:12:25Speaker 1: spending plan of a massive three hundred and forty two
- 1:12:28Speaker 1: million dollars They pound on spending to keep Fune in
- 1:12:31Speaker 1: that role in twenty twenty seven. The biggest amount seventy
- 1:12:34Speaker 1: nine million dollars, the one I mentioned before going to Ohio,
- 1:12:38Speaker 1: suggesting and the Democrats are saying this. Senate Democrats super
- 1:12:43Speaker 1: Pac spokesperson Lauren French. This announcement is a signed Republicans
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: are nervous, plain and simple. Their battleground map has increased substantially,
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: and we're seeing the telltale signs of weakness with bad candidates,
- 1:12:54Speaker 1: uninspiring messaging, and approving approval ratings in the pits. Well,
- 1:12:58Speaker 1: that may be true, ma'am, if if you look at
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: just the approval ratings for the Republicans, but if you
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: look at the approval ratings for the Democrats, in most
- 1:13:08Speaker 1: cases they're a lot lower than the Republicans, which I
- 1:13:11Speaker 1: think speaks volume. Going back to Alan Dershowitz abandoning the
- 1:13:14Speaker 1: Democrat Party he's been a member of since nineteen fifty seven,
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: registering now as a Republican because he believes the Democrat
- 1:13:20Speaker 1: Party has gotten just batcrap and sane left appealing to
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: the Centrists of the world. He thinks he can lead
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: by example by quitting the Democrat Party in protest. Trust me,
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: he wrote, as he wrote earlier, and I read the
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: op ed piece. I thought it was important because he's
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: an influential guy. But there's I just I can't believe
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: I live in a world where Zoron Mamdami really represents
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: what my Democrat friends really stand for the majority of
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: them anyway. You know, when you look down to the
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: individual issues, poll after poll after poll on the biggest
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: issues in this country, they end up all being eighty
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: twenty issues, with their Democrats on the twenty side of
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: the of the ledge. You know, I guess are we
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: being lied to? You know, looking at this time magazine article,
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: is Ohio really turning purple? Does Shared Brown really stand
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: a chance? Is John Houston that bad of a candidate
- 1:14:15Speaker 1: that people would be inclined to vote for Shared Brown
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: over John Houston? But the money is huge, and I
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: think the seventy nine million dollars allocate about the sending
- 1:14:27Speaker 1: to you a p superpack may suggest a foil to
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: the probably double amount that the various globalist left winging
- 1:14:38Speaker 1: political action committees are going to be putting behind Shared
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: Brown in this race. And that may be the reason,
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: more so than the state of Ohio going blue. That
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: may be just a way to stave off whatever influence
- 1:14:50Speaker 1: these leftist organizations might have over people who are uninformed
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: enough that they would vote for Shared Brown, and given
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: his record as a far leftist kind of nutcase. Going
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: back to the uninformed voters. That's where money really matters.

- 1:15:53Speaker 1: That's good.
- 1:15:54Speaker 10: It's actually up to eleven now, so yeah, yeah, eleven
- 1:15:57Speaker 10: right over all over Sports Center too, So yeah, happy birthday, Laaren.
- 1:16:01Speaker 10: And ironically that I call my forty one year old
- 1:16:05Speaker 10: daughter Pumpkin. That was my favorite nickname for her too.
- 1:16:08Speaker 10: So where is the time go?
- 1:16:10Speaker 1: I don't know, like we're getting old man.
- 1:16:15Speaker 10: But you know, anytime the party's in power, you expect
- 1:16:19Speaker 10: the party not in power to be the opposition, but
- 1:16:23Speaker 10: almost a regulated opposition. And over the past weekend, and
- 1:16:27Speaker 10: you mentioned it earlier in the show about you know,
- 1:16:30Speaker 10: saying that there's some of these Democrats are getting out
- 1:16:32Speaker 10: there clearly not supporting the war, but even taking it
- 1:16:36Speaker 10: to the next step in this past weekend over in
- 1:16:39Speaker 10: Spain no less, Yeah, that's Spain. I won't even let
- 1:16:41Speaker 10: us use their airspace. Yeah, we had not exactly the
- 1:16:46Speaker 10: first string, but you had Governor Tim Walls and TDS
- 1:16:50Speaker 10: poster child Chris Senator Chris Murphy from Connecticut one over
- 1:16:54Speaker 10: there overseas, you know, talking down the war, talking down Trump.
- 1:16:58Speaker 2: I mean, do they have no shame?
- 1:17:03Speaker 1: I suppose when I know when it comes to Donald Trump,
- 1:17:05Speaker 1: the answer is no, they have none. They have been
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: living this Donald Trump reality since he first stepped onto
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: the stage and won the primary, and they have just
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: been beating and beating and beating him down every single day.
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: He's become the embodiment, He's become the person in their minds,
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: in the minds of so many people that represents who
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: and everything that Republicans are and I always kind of
- 1:17:26Speaker 1: speculate what they're going to do when he's gone. This
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: is all they've hung their hat on, just hatred towards
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: Donald Trump since he emerged. And you know, they're not
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: going after policies, They're going after Trump again. The craziness
- 1:17:40Speaker 1: that they are wishing the United States or hoping the
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: United States fails in connection with dealing with the Iranians.
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: Because Trump then fails himself, it will be a loss
- 1:17:50Speaker 1: in the Trump column. And that's okay, and that negates
- 1:17:53Speaker 1: any negativity that the United States is going to reap
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: as a consequence of leaving the Iranians in power.
- 1:17:57Speaker 10: That's in nineteen seventy nine. I was twenty three years
- 1:18:02Speaker 10: old on my first submarine in Pearl Harbor and I
- 1:18:06Speaker 10: remember the breaking news it was, and then Nightline was
- 1:18:09Speaker 10: on every night when those hostages were taken. And it's
- 1:18:12Speaker 10: been the same drum beat for forty seven years. You know,
- 1:18:16Speaker 10: you don't wait until there's mushroom clouds in London or
- 1:18:19Speaker 10: New York City and say, oh, I guess we should
- 1:18:21Speaker 10: have done something. You know, it's plain and simple. What
- 1:18:24Speaker 10: the main purpose of this operation is. But yeah, once again,
- 1:18:28Speaker 10: just because Trump's involved, that we go overseas and people
- 1:18:33Speaker 10: are on ships, Marines, Army, Air Force lining the air
- 1:18:37Speaker 10: and this is what are representatives and senators are doing,
- 1:18:40Speaker 10: not even on American soil.
- 1:18:43Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And that's what William McGurn wrote about that
- 1:18:49Speaker 1: op ed piece. I talked about it. I mean, the
- 1:18:54Speaker 1: guy conceded that nothing would improve the region more than
- 1:18:56Speaker 1: the replacement of this regime, the running jam with a
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: regime in Iran that was focused on enabling its people
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: to realize their full potential and integrating peacefully with other countries,
- 1:19:03Speaker 1: to stop occupying Lebanon, Seria, Iraqi name and everybody would
- 1:19:06Speaker 1: love that. That'll be great for the entire world. Then
- 1:19:09Speaker 1: he says, the problem is I were the guy that
- 1:19:11Speaker 1: was common in this. This Nobel Prize or Pulitzer Prize
- 1:19:14Speaker 1: winning columnist Thomas Friedman, The problem is, I really don't
- 1:19:18Speaker 1: want to see beating Natanya who or Donald Trump politically
- 1:19:21Speaker 1: strengthened by this war, because they are two awful human beings.
- 1:19:24Speaker 1: That's it. We don't want the world to be a
- 1:19:26Speaker 1: better place because it will be a win for Trump,
- 1:19:29Speaker 1: So screw the world. That's how bad it is, Mike,
- 1:19:34Speaker 1: I don't know what else to say about this.
- 1:19:37Speaker 10: I'll get down on your knees and pray every night
- 1:19:39Speaker 10: and that, you know, maybe these negotiations can come to something,
- 1:19:43Speaker 10: because you know, thirty of the people in Roan want this.
- 1:19:49Speaker 10: And even when I saw something earlier this morning when
- 1:19:51Speaker 10: you list you know, women's rights, that the Democrats will
- 1:19:55Speaker 10: march you know, on any given Saturday for and that
- 1:19:59Speaker 10: there is one female and Iran. It has hit any
- 1:20:02Speaker 10: one of those, but we just turned to blind eye
- 1:20:03Speaker 10: to that.
- 1:20:04Speaker 1: Oh and don't overlook the LGBTQ situation. I'm sure the
- 1:20:07Speaker 1: Runians embrace the whole lgbt Q I A plus plus
- 1:20:10Speaker 1: plus whatever movement. Now they'll throw them off a building,
- 1:20:14Speaker 1: execute them. We had them something like those long lines.
- 1:20:16Speaker 1: You never hear anything about the Democrats on that either,
- 1:20:18Speaker 1: d not a peep, not a peep, sir, right, And
- 1:20:21Speaker 1: they're outslaughtering their own people on top of it. Yeah,
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: but ice bad, right, Mike, take care of my friend.

- 1:21:10Speaker 1: Welcome back to the fifty five Carris In Morning Show
- 1:21:12Speaker 1: from We the People Convention dot org, the website where
- 1:21:16Speaker 1: you find Tom Zawastowski and his podcast weekly among other
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: writing and reporting. Tom Zawastowski, Welcome back to the morning show.
- 1:21:22Speaker 1: My friend's always great having you on the show.
- 1:21:24Speaker 2: Good morning, Brian, Yet you caused me to spit out
- 1:21:27Speaker 2: my coffee this morning when you were talking about the
- 1:21:29Speaker 2: failed Cincinnati schools wanting the tash belayer is a fund
- 1:21:33Speaker 2: of six hundred million dollar budget. Good god man, what's
- 1:21:37Speaker 2: in the water down there in Cincinnati?
- 1:21:39Speaker 1: I have I was questioning the reporting on that because
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: I read that, and I'm like, well, so you know,
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: I'm not faulting Sean Delancy from WCPO for writing what
- 1:21:50Speaker 1: he wrote. I'm assuming that he got the numbers from
- 1:21:52Speaker 1: the meeting. He was out of the Cincinnati Board of
- 1:21:54Speaker 1: Education trying to sort out their budget issues. But here's
- 1:21:57Speaker 1: what he said for people who weren't listening, because it's
- 1:21:59Speaker 1: a mind blowing. In a presentation, administration officials explained the
- 1:22:03Speaker 1: difference between what the district would like to spend to
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: achieve its goal six hundred eighty eight million, eight hundred
- 1:22:11Speaker 1: thousand and what the district's targeted spending to meet expected
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: revenue was, which is ten percent of that sixty million,
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: nine hundred thousand. I just whatever its goal was, that's
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: a pretty blank and expensive goal. It's coming into seven
- 1:22:26Speaker 1: hundred million dollars. Tom Anyhow, I'm sure there's going to
- 1:22:29Speaker 1: be tough.
- 1:22:30Speaker 2: And then and then you were talking about, you know,
- 1:22:32Speaker 2: the seventy nine million dollars the Republicans is going to
- 1:22:35Speaker 2: put into the Senate campaign. Yeah, And I was just
- 1:22:38Speaker 2: opening an email from Axios this morning, and I did
- 1:22:42Speaker 2: not know this number. This emails was talking about funding
- 1:22:45Speaker 2: for this year's primaries. It's it's more. It's crazier than
- 1:22:50Speaker 2: we could even imagine. They had a quote in here
- 1:22:53Speaker 2: that said, in twenty twenty four, Ohio had the most
- 1:22:56Speaker 2: expensive Senate race, with about four hundred and fifty million
- 1:23:01Speaker 2: dollars in spending according to Open Secrets, in just the
- 1:23:05Speaker 2: Senate race. It's crazy. And here's the problem. It's propaganda.
- 1:23:12Speaker 2: Why do they have to spend that much money because
- 1:23:14Speaker 2: they got to make you think Sharon Brown is something
- 1:23:17Speaker 2: completely opposite.
- 1:23:18Speaker 1: Of what Sharon Brown is, which leads me to the
- 1:23:20Speaker 1: voters are blind to.
- 1:23:22Speaker 2: It because they're just four hundred and fifty million dollars
- 1:23:25Speaker 2: of ad spending. Oh my goodness, graziness.
- 1:23:28Speaker 1: Voters are blind to it, says Tom Zawastowski. Whose fault
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: is that?
- 1:23:31Speaker 2: Tom?
- 1:23:32Speaker 1: This is what This is the point I try to
- 1:23:34Speaker 1: make all the time. You know, people listen in the
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: morning show. I presume, or at least on some level,
- 1:23:37Speaker 1: Weed dwells you like to find out what's going on locally, globally,
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: internationally political and otherwise you pay attention to things. When
- 1:23:43Speaker 1: I mentioned John Houston, you know who he is. But
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: what about people who don't? What about people who are
- 1:23:49Speaker 1: busy binge watching their favorite show on Netflix every single
- 1:23:52Speaker 1: day and then they have, you know, their their their
- 1:23:54Speaker 1: family obligations and their job obligations, leaving them literally no
- 1:23:57Speaker 1: time to pursue something that they have no interest insuing,
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: which is paying paying attention to politics. Enter big giant
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: spending and ad campaigns that are literally propaganda designed it
- 1:24:09Speaker 1: just driven to try to convince you of something you
- 1:24:11Speaker 1: shouldn't believe, but only effective among low information voters. I mean, Tom,
- 1:24:17Speaker 1: do you ever see a political ad? You look at
- 1:24:19Speaker 1: it and you listen to who in the hell would
- 1:24:22Speaker 1: believe that that's the polar opposite of the truth. And
- 1:24:25Speaker 1: you know why I can react that way because here
- 1:24:28Speaker 1: I've got all of the information supporting why I know
- 1:24:30Speaker 1: that is an outright campaign lie. Most people don't come
- 1:24:34Speaker 1: armed with that information, Tom, meaning one hundred million dollars
- 1:24:37Speaker 1: two hundred million dollars worth seventy nine million dollars for
- 1:24:40Speaker 1: one Senate campaign that actually works to some degree and
- 1:24:42Speaker 1: that's frightening in and of itself.
- 1:24:45Speaker 2: Well, I would remind your listeners that Ohio, you to
- 1:24:49Speaker 2: its credit, used to have a law that made it
- 1:24:52Speaker 2: illegal to lie in campaign ads, and the Supreme Court
- 1:24:57Speaker 2: overruled it and said lying in political ads is free speech. Yeah. Yeah,
- 1:25:04Speaker 2: it's insane. It's insane, and the big money is just
- 1:25:09Speaker 2: out of control. And that's seventy nine million dollars. You're
- 1:25:12Speaker 2: absolutely right, that probably is half of what the them
- 1:25:15Speaker 2: are going to spend on Shary Brown.
- 1:25:17Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 1:25:17Speaker 2: So we got to get out and we got to
- 1:25:20Speaker 2: talk to each other, and we've got to you know,
- 1:25:22Speaker 2: we got to listen to this show, right because every
- 1:25:25Speaker 2: day you have these candidates on, you want to know
- 1:25:27Speaker 2: who they are. Yeah, listen to how Brian Thomas talks
- 1:25:30Speaker 2: to them and get them to say who they are.
- 1:25:32Speaker 2: That's how you know how to vote. But boy, you know,
- 1:25:34Speaker 2: they just shove these ads out there and it has
- 1:25:36Speaker 2: a double sided effect. It's really frustrating to me because
- 1:25:39Speaker 2: the first thing is it makes you want to turn
- 1:25:41Speaker 2: off the TV because you've seen it seven hundred times. Yeah, right,
- 1:25:45Speaker 2: So then the only ones who get influence are the
- 1:25:47Speaker 2: ones who can.
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: Sit through that craft Yeah, how bad do you want
- 1:25:51Speaker 1: to watch Wheel of Fortune?
- 1:25:53Speaker 2: Oh?
- 1:25:54Speaker 1: That's right, took away. Tom sallistasky, we're talking about the
- 1:25:58Speaker 1: USDA shutting down scores because of Snappy Leaf Talk station
- 1:26:04Speaker 1: seven thirty nine if you have KCD talk station, we
- 1:26:06Speaker 1: the People Convention dot Org. That's Tom za Awastowski's website
- 1:26:10Speaker 1: does a weekly podcast. A lot of great information there,
- 1:26:12Speaker 1: including Tom, what's with the USDA shutting down stores because
- 1:26:15Speaker 1: of food snap or snap? That the Supplemental Nutrition Assistant
- 1:26:20Speaker 1: Program program they cracking down on that.
- 1:26:22Speaker 2: Finally, well, see, I put this article out because I
- 1:26:28Speaker 2: am not going to start I'm not going to be
- 1:26:30Speaker 2: doing articles anymore about well we've we've discovered fraud. We
- 1:26:34Speaker 2: found fraud, but they never recover any money. They never
- 1:26:38Speaker 2: do anything, they never stop anything. This article I wanted
- 1:26:42Speaker 2: to show people that the Trump administration is actually taking action.
- 1:26:46Speaker 2: So what they did is really good. The Department of
- 1:26:49Speaker 2: Agriculture has this qualified fifteen hundred and sixty two retailers
- 1:26:54Speaker 2: are associated with snap fraud and this stable. I love this.
- 1:26:58Speaker 2: The seven hund and sixty elleite point of sale devices
- 1:27:02Speaker 2: you know in their stores, which has resulted in the
- 1:27:04Speaker 2: prevention of nearly eight hundred and thirty five million dollars
- 1:27:08Speaker 2: in fraudulent snap transitions actions.
- 1:27:10Speaker 1: That's October. The seed TOM five million is since October
- 1:27:15Speaker 1: of last year. Wow.
- 1:27:17Speaker 2: Yes, but we want to see action to me. I
- 1:27:20Speaker 2: think this fraud issue, Brian is going to be one
- 1:27:23Speaker 2: of the major voter issues in the twenty twenty four
- 1:27:27Speaker 2: six election in November. People are going to go crazy.
- 1:27:31Speaker 2: And so I had a story last week where they
- 1:27:33Speaker 2: talked about Trump administration has three announced three wins where
- 1:27:37Speaker 2: they recovered five hundred million dollars okay, in their war
- 1:27:42Speaker 2: on fraud in Florida and in Nevada and California. That's
- 1:27:46Speaker 2: what we want to see. Here's the question, what is
- 1:27:50Speaker 2: Congress doing when you say we identified nine billion dollars
- 1:27:54Speaker 2: in fraud in Minnesota. The next day Congress should have
- 1:27:59Speaker 2: obsession where they vote to cut whatever program that was
- 1:28:03Speaker 2: by nine million dollars, right, because you obviously don't need
- 1:28:06Speaker 2: that nine million dollars if it was being stolen.
- 1:28:09Speaker 1: That's right.
- 1:28:10Speaker 2: They haven't done a damn thing that.
- 1:28:12Speaker 1: Actually, that's a that's an really excellent point. You made,
- 1:28:14Speaker 1: very simple, but very it's a perfect point. Nine billion
- 1:28:18Speaker 1: dollars went into the ether. It didn't serve a single person,
- 1:28:21Speaker 1: not that anybody was really being served in a leering center. Tom,
- 1:28:24Speaker 1: we all understand that there were no children in these
- 1:28:26Speaker 1: in these various facilities, So nothing is getting accomplished. Nine
- 1:28:29Speaker 1: billion dollars just disappears, period, one single city. I don't
- 1:28:35Speaker 1: understand how the entire world of American politics isn't a
- 1:28:40Speaker 1: fire of this, because is I love to point out,
- 1:28:42Speaker 1: this isn't Democrat money, it isn't Republican money. It's the
- 1:28:45Speaker 1: American taxpayer's money. And while some you know, politicians in Minneapolis,
- 1:28:49Speaker 1: for example, might want the flow of money to continue,
- 1:28:52Speaker 1: they are stabbing each and every one of their own
- 1:28:54Speaker 1: constituents who isn't benefiting from this theft right in the back.
- 1:28:58Speaker 1: You go to work, and your work, take your paycheck,
- 1:29:00Speaker 1: we're taking your salary, and we're going to continue to
- 1:29:02Speaker 1: fund this outrageous theft of the very money that you
- 1:29:06Speaker 1: worked for. Man, I don't think. I don't know how
- 1:29:07Speaker 1: anybody can support that or it doesn't get outraged over
- 1:29:10Speaker 1: that concept.
- 1:29:11Speaker 2: They're going to be outraged because it's twofold. First of all,
- 1:29:14Speaker 2: we didn't recover any of that nine million dollars and
- 1:29:17Speaker 2: now we're not getting it. You got to do both.
- 1:29:21Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it's like the tax code. You know,
- 1:29:25Speaker 1: they'll pass the tax provision tom and then someone will discover,
- 1:29:27Speaker 1: oh my god, there's a loophole. Now, the loophole may
- 1:29:30Speaker 1: have been put in their intentionally, you know, you know,
- 1:29:33Speaker 1: or someone discovered that there in fact was a workaround
- 1:29:37Speaker 1: over what the IRS was trying to accomplish with whatever
- 1:29:39Speaker 1: provision you found the loophole in. This is a giant
- 1:29:44Speaker 1: blanket loophole, the ability to set up these fake industries,
- 1:29:48Speaker 1: these fake businesses, these LLC's, easily apply for approval to
- 1:29:52Speaker 1: become some leering center provider and continue to rip off
- 1:29:55Speaker 1: the American taxpayer, stealing money from them for years and years,
- 1:30:00Speaker 1: all the while it had been reported to the Minneapolis
- 1:30:03Speaker 1: or the Minnesota officials. Everybody from the governor down and
- 1:30:06Speaker 1: everybody in a capacity to stop the fraud the theft
- 1:30:09Speaker 1: was aware of it, and why didn't they do anything
- 1:30:11Speaker 1: about it. The retort has been, well, we were accused
- 1:30:14Speaker 1: of being racist. That was that's the only argument they
- 1:30:17Speaker 1: came up with.
- 1:30:18Speaker 2: Really, Oh go go watch out in my podcast this
- 1:30:22Speaker 2: past Saturday, if you go to our podcast page at
- 1:30:24Speaker 2: Rebueld Convention. The links to every story are there. And
- 1:30:28Speaker 2: listen to the woman who worked in many A, Minnesota,
- 1:30:32Speaker 2: who identified the fraud and told them about it, and
- 1:30:36Speaker 2: listened to her story about what they did to her.
- 1:30:39Speaker 2: Don't tell me they didn't know. They knew everyone from
- 1:30:43Speaker 2: walls on down, and they wanted this fraud to happen,
- 1:30:47Speaker 2: and they went after any decent citizen who stood up
- 1:30:51Speaker 2: and said, hey, they're stealing us blind. Her story was,
- 1:30:54Speaker 2: I mean, I'll tell you what. It was very compelling.
- 1:30:57Speaker 2: So we got to stop it. And I'm just telling
- 1:30:59Speaker 2: you I'm to the point now, Brian, where I'm concerned
- 1:31:03Speaker 2: that the vast majority of these social programs are fraud schemes. Yeah,
- 1:31:09Speaker 2: this isn't this is not a bug, it's a feature,
- 1:31:13Speaker 2: and that in California they've been using it to fund
- 1:31:16Speaker 2: their democratic efforts and steal elections.
- 1:31:20Speaker 1: Furthering my point, I got to do this. It isn't
- 1:31:23Speaker 1: a loophole that allowed the ease in which the fraud
- 1:31:25Speaker 1: to take place took place. It was intentionally designed to
- 1:31:28Speaker 1: allow fraud and theft to occur.
- 1:31:31Speaker 2: You think, yeah, gotta stop, we can't afford it. It's bankrupty.
- 1:31:36Speaker 2: I believe the thirty eight trillion dollars were in debt
- 1:31:39Speaker 2: all of it was fraud. I really believe that when
- 1:31:41Speaker 2: they're saying there's way one site seven trillion dollars in
- 1:31:44Speaker 2: the budget, that's fraud, and that's the set saying that
- 1:31:47Speaker 2: that was must saying that would go and all that.
- 1:31:49Speaker 2: Multiply that times the last fifteen years, you get thirty
- 1:31:52Speaker 2: eight trillion dollars. Real quick. They stole thirty eight tollion
- 1:31:55Speaker 2: dollars that they borrowed on our.
- 1:31:57Speaker 1: Name, Yes they did, Tom's I was asking you the
- 1:31:59Speaker 1: people can bring it back and talk about latest on
- 1:32:02Speaker 1: the property tax issue here in now and why Ohioans
- 1:32:04Speaker 1: might be against data centers more We either People Convention
- 1:32:07Speaker 1: dot org, Zimrheating and Cooler. See the talk station seven
- 1:32:12Speaker 1: forty nine if you u KCD talk station Ryan Thomas
- 1:32:14Speaker 1: with Thomas Awastowski from We the People Convention dot Org.
- 1:32:17Speaker 1: Check out his page book market here what he has
- 1:32:18Speaker 1: to say on his podcast every week. Pivoting over latest
- 1:32:21Speaker 1: on property tax is obviously a huge issue here in
- 1:32:23Speaker 1: the state of Ohio. As you're going back to the
- 1:32:26Speaker 1: Cincinni Public schools overall, like seven hundred million dollars, desireless whatever.
- 1:32:31Speaker 1: It's going to be funded by property taxes, in spite
- 1:32:32Speaker 1: of the fact that the Supreme Court said that is
- 1:32:34Speaker 1: an unconstitutional funding mechanism twenty years ago. Tom, that's hilarious,
- 1:32:39Speaker 1: But the fact remains that people don't like property taxes,
- 1:32:42Speaker 1: especially when they jump thirty forty percent in one single
- 1:32:46Speaker 1: Trium oral review. Viva Romis won me running on rolling
- 1:32:49Speaker 1: the property tax rates back to the pre COVID levels
- 1:32:53Speaker 1: twenty nineteen and then limiting the increases to a an
- 1:32:56Speaker 1: inflation rate, which sounds to me like a reasonable direction
- 1:32:59Speaker 1: to go to. But you know, you got that ballot
- 1:33:01Speaker 1: an issued out out there that will actually memorialize in
- 1:33:04Speaker 1: the ohiost Constitution the eradication of property taxes generally speaking,
- 1:33:07Speaker 1: and that's got a lot of politicians freaking out, as
- 1:33:10Speaker 1: well as a lot of teachers union. So where are we, well, A.
- 1:33:14Speaker 2: Big development this week. Quite frankly, I was surprised to
- 1:33:18Speaker 2: see this, But Brian Massey are a great patriot and
- 1:33:21Speaker 2: a good guy, and the people behind the Axe Ohio
- 1:33:24Speaker 2: tax repeal, you know, Constitution amendment effort. He has decided
- 1:33:29Speaker 2: that this Thursday, April twenty third, they're going to have
- 1:33:33Speaker 2: a press conference and they're going to disclose how many
- 1:33:36Speaker 2: signatures they have to get the amendment on the ballot.
- 1:33:41Speaker 2: And he had sworn that he would not do that.
- 1:33:44Speaker 2: You know, he basically was, you know, keeping it completely secret.
- 1:33:47Speaker 2: And for some reason he's decided this Thursday to kind of,
- 1:33:51Speaker 2: you know, make an announcement. Now he could announce they have.
- 1:33:54Speaker 11: Enough stress and they need four hundred and eighteen thousand
- 1:33:59Speaker 11: certified things, and they're trying to collect six hundred and
- 1:34:02Speaker 11: twenty thousand to make sure that they have enough.
- 1:34:06Speaker 2: I would be shocked if that is true. But he
- 1:34:09Speaker 2: may be saying, Okay, here's how many we have, and now,
- 1:34:13Speaker 2: if you want to repel private taxes, you've got to
- 1:34:15Speaker 2: help us between now and June thirtieth. So here, go
- 1:34:19Speaker 2: to our website and side. It's going to be one
- 1:34:21Speaker 2: of those two things. My guess is it's the latter.
- 1:34:24Speaker 2: But it's very interesting that he's decided that it's time
- 1:34:27Speaker 2: for them to disclose how many signatures they have.
- 1:34:30Speaker 1: In the deadline again at the end of June, yes.
- 1:34:33Speaker 2: June thirtieth, you have to have your signatures turning into
- 1:34:35Speaker 2: sectuary states, then they have to again. And I cautioned
- 1:34:39Speaker 2: people even if they came out Thursday and said we've got,
- 1:34:42Speaker 2: you know whatever, six hundred thousand, you know, signatures. I've
- 1:34:46Speaker 2: done this before. I'm one of the few humans living
- 1:34:48Speaker 2: in Ohio that has actually passed a constitutional amendment when
- 1:34:52Speaker 2: I was a president of the Ohio Liberty Council in
- 1:34:54Speaker 2: two thousand and ten eleven, when we passed the Ohio
- 1:34:57Speaker 2: Healthcare Amendment. Right. And it's hard because when you turn
- 1:35:01Speaker 2: in your signatures, and remember they've been collected these for
- 1:35:04Speaker 2: like a year now, people have moved, people have died,
- 1:35:08Speaker 2: signatures are invalid, and you quickly go from oh, here's
- 1:35:12Speaker 2: my six hundred and twenty thousand and two. Whoops, you're
- 1:35:15Speaker 2: three thousand short because you're down to four hundred and ten. Okay,
- 1:35:18Speaker 2: So just be aware that, you know, even though they
- 1:35:21Speaker 2: may announce that they've got signatures, that doesn't mean that
- 1:35:24Speaker 2: secure state has already said that they're valid. Yeah.
- 1:35:26Speaker 1: I just have to note, you know, they're going to
- 1:35:28Speaker 1: be really close. They're checking the signatures and the eligibility
- 1:35:31Speaker 1: of someone who assigned the petition, and they're looking very
- 1:35:33Speaker 1: closely at it to see if you are eligible and
- 1:35:35Speaker 1: registered to vote in the state of Ohio. That's like
- 1:35:37Speaker 1: more effort than they pay to keep in track of
- 1:35:39Speaker 1: the voter roles in most states.
- 1:35:41Speaker 2: Time, and isn't an interesting too. But people who are
- 1:35:45Speaker 2: doing that might have an interest in making sure that
- 1:35:49Speaker 2: that signature isn't valid exactly because they're involved with some
- 1:35:53Speaker 2: of these agencies that are getting these property taxes. So yeah,
- 1:35:57Speaker 2: very very scary dynamic for sure.
- 1:35:59Speaker 1: All right, nice pivot over as we approach the top
- 1:36:01Speaker 1: of they are with the inside Scoop went and Hall,
- 1:36:03Speaker 1: the author of Code Read the Left, the Right, China
- 1:36:05Speaker 1: and the race to control AI. One of the topics
- 1:36:08Speaker 1: I have on my list to speak about you with
- 1:36:09Speaker 1: you with Tom is why Ohioans might be against data centers.
- 1:36:13Speaker 1: I mean, my position on always is this. I've just
- 1:36:15Speaker 1: come to the conclusions. I hate really pretty much everything
- 1:36:17Speaker 1: there is to do with AI. But it's not stopping
- 1:36:21Speaker 1: people are going They are whoever is the force behind this,
- 1:36:24Speaker 1: They're going forward with it. So we either you know,
- 1:36:26Speaker 1: feed at the trough of whatever profits might be out there,
- 1:36:29Speaker 1: or we let other states get the benefit, or maybe
- 1:36:31Speaker 1: China get the benefit. If we don't pursue it ourselves.
- 1:36:34Speaker 1: But in terms of the state of Ohio, where are
- 1:36:35Speaker 1: we on this one?
- 1:36:36Speaker 2: Tom Well, first of all, I encourage all of your
- 1:36:39Speaker 2: listeners and viewers to listen to that segment about Code Red.
- 1:36:44Speaker 2: That's a really important book and he's got some very
- 1:36:46Speaker 2: important information. So here's where I'm at. And I put
- 1:36:50Speaker 2: out a pretty strong email last week because there was
- 1:36:54Speaker 2: a video of a young man speaking in Ravenna, Ohio
- 1:36:58Speaker 2: against the data centers, and it was getting kind of
- 1:37:01Speaker 2: viral coverage and people were praising it, and I pretty
- 1:37:04Speaker 2: much came out and attacked it as basically I called it,
- 1:37:07Speaker 2: you know, on typical tom z fashion, this was an
- 1:37:09Speaker 2: expert class and left this propaganda okay, And so I
- 1:37:13Speaker 2: kind of take his speech apart. You can see that
- 1:37:16Speaker 2: at Portage countyteaparty dot com if you want to watch
- 1:37:19Speaker 2: that video and get my analysis. Here's the problem, Brian,
- 1:37:23Speaker 2: in my opinion, that the lack of transparency. People are
- 1:37:29Speaker 2: going to these township meetings, county meetings and just saying, well,
- 1:37:34Speaker 2: tell me about the water, tell me about the noise,
- 1:37:37Speaker 2: tell me about the power use, okay, and they're getting nothing.
- 1:37:41Speaker 2: They're getting no information, they're being told, well, we signed
- 1:37:44Speaker 2: an NDA, so we can't tell you anything that is
- 1:37:47Speaker 2: causing people to freak out. And I am saying, we've
- 1:37:51Speaker 2: got to stop hiding behind the curtain. What are you hiding?
- 1:37:55Speaker 2: Let's talk about because I believe two things. One, just
- 1:37:59Speaker 2: like when they try to demonize fracking, you can frack safely.
- 1:38:04Speaker 2: If you don't frack safely, it's a choice driven by
- 1:38:07Speaker 2: greed and you should go to prison. But you can
- 1:38:10Speaker 2: frack safely. You can build data centers that are good
- 1:38:15Speaker 2: for the community and good for America. Okay, but don't
- 1:38:20Speaker 2: tell me that you're not gonna expose how they're gonna
- 1:38:23Speaker 2: get their power, how they're gonna get, what water they're
- 1:38:25Speaker 2: gonna use, what noise pollution, stuff like that. The bottom
- 1:38:29Speaker 2: line is. But here's the kicker, and I make this
- 1:38:31Speaker 2: point in my article at towards Kintpriy dot com. It's
- 1:38:36Speaker 2: a national security interest. This is the bottom line. The
- 1:38:40Speaker 2: Chinese are behind and the guy from Code Read he's
- 1:38:44Speaker 2: gonna tell you the Chinese are funding this misinformation about
- 1:38:48Speaker 2: data centers to get good Americans in Ohio to fight
- 1:38:53Speaker 2: data centers so the Chinese can win the fight. That's
- 1:38:57Speaker 2: the God's on his truth. I hear that segment.
- 1:39:00Speaker 1: That does not shock me at all, and I don't
- 1:39:03Speaker 1: know if it's true. I trust Corey what he sent
- 1:39:05Speaker 1: me before. I just got a quick message Tom on
- 1:39:08Speaker 1: the signatures. Uh, Corey says, Ax, thetack has tax has
- 1:39:12Speaker 1: one million, two hundred and thirty thousand signatures already. I
- 1:39:16Speaker 1: asked him where he got that information. You said, a
- 1:39:18Speaker 1: cord to their Facebook page. I'll get you the links.
- 1:39:20Speaker 1: The last text I got from him, So who knows?
- 1:39:22Speaker 1: Keep your popcorn out, Tom, I think I know you'll
- 1:39:24Speaker 1: be back.
- 1:39:25Speaker 2: That would be an amazing achievement, that would be historic,
- 1:39:28Speaker 2: beyond all beliefs.
- 1:39:29Speaker 1: Is going to be eighth five the fifty five KRCD
- 1:39:32Speaker 1: Talks Station A very happy Tuesday, team, man. I always
- 1:39:34Speaker 1: made it extra happy because it's time for the insight
- 1:39:37Speaker 1: scoop with bright Bart News. All the cool kids are
- 1:39:40Speaker 1: bookmarking the pay pr e I t BA art dot Com.
- 1:39:43Speaker 1: Great reporting there, and of course you get to read
- 1:39:45Speaker 1: what Winton Hall writes. He's the social media director for
- 1:39:48Speaker 1: bright Bart News. His data driven strategies generated billions of
- 1:39:51Speaker 1: interactions and helped forge one of the most influential digital

- 1:40:07Speaker 1: sellers for world leaders, tech moguls, and celebrities, and his

- 1:40:16Speaker 1: the Right, China and the Race to Control AI by
- 1:40:18Speaker 1: my guest today, went and Haul. Welcome to the fifty
- 1:40:20Speaker 1: five Carosee Morning Show. It is a distinct pleasure to
- 1:40:22Speaker 1: have you on.
- 1:40:23Speaker 9: Oh great to be with you, Brian, Thank you so
- 1:40:25Speaker 9: much for having me.
- 1:40:26Speaker 1: Well and cutting to the chase. Now, obviously we're going
- 1:40:28Speaker 1: to talk about the ins and outs, the wise and
- 1:40:30Speaker 1: warrefores of artificial intelligence generally speaking, but something I have
- 1:40:32Speaker 1: been commenting on and you sum it up quite nicely
- 1:40:34Speaker 1: in your notes here. Whether we are ready or not,
- 1:40:38Speaker 1: you do not get to opt out of the AI revolution.
- 1:40:41Speaker 1: That decision has already been made for you. Which speaking
- 1:40:43Speaker 1: to people in my last segment about people in Ohio
- 1:40:45Speaker 1: that maybe don't want artificial intelligence data centers around them,
- 1:40:49Speaker 1: this wave is coming and there's not a damn thing
- 1:40:51Speaker 1: we can do to stop it. So we either join
- 1:40:53Speaker 1: in the bandwagon and reap whatever potential benefit, if any,
- 1:40:56Speaker 1: you get from it, or you let somebody else do it,
- 1:40:59Speaker 1: like the Chinese common I mean, this party wentten. Is
- 1:41:01Speaker 1: there anything good to come from AI? Or is it
- 1:41:03Speaker 1: all gloom and doom?
- 1:41:05Speaker 5: No, it's a great question, Brian.
- 1:41:06Speaker 9: You're exactly right. Ninety nine percent of us use AI,
- 1:41:10Speaker 9: but sixty four percent of people don't often realize when
- 1:41:14Speaker 9: they're using a GUI, and it's because it's baked into
- 1:41:16Speaker 9: the algorithms that power everything in our lives, right from
- 1:41:19Speaker 9: our weather apps to our streaming services to GPS, and
- 1:41:22Speaker 9: so one of the things that I wanted to try
- 1:41:24Speaker 9: to convey is the urgency of understanding what the negatives
- 1:41:28Speaker 9: are what I call the land mines, but also that
- 1:41:30Speaker 9: there will be roses as well. So roses and land
- 1:41:34Speaker 9: mines is the way I frame it it. In code,
- 1:41:35Speaker 9: read and really walking through how it is reshaping every
- 1:41:39Speaker 9: single part of the policy world that we have in
- 1:41:43Speaker 9: the conservative movement have navigated through four decades, whether you're
- 1:41:46Speaker 9: talking about indoctrination versus education of our children, whether you're
- 1:41:50Speaker 9: talking about creating or erasing jobs or as we're seeing
- 1:41:54Speaker 9: right now in Iran and previously in Venezuela with the
- 1:41:57Speaker 9: Maduro rate, the battlefield implications of AI warfare. And so
- 1:42:02Speaker 9: we've got to get coached up so that we can
- 1:42:03Speaker 9: seize the roses but also mitigate those land mines, and that's.
- 1:42:07Speaker 2: What I try to do.
- 1:42:08Speaker 9: You're technically right. The attitudes about AI though in America
- 1:42:12Speaker 9: extremely negative, twenty six percent positive, use forty six percent negative,
- 1:42:18Speaker 9: and the rest trying to figure it out, and so
- 1:42:20Speaker 9: want to try to be able to get people.
- 1:42:21Speaker 2: Caught up to speed.
- 1:42:22Speaker 1: Well, wait, and you talk about it in terms of
- 1:42:23Speaker 1: roses and land mines. I, of course, and not being
- 1:42:26Speaker 1: a tech savvy kind of guy, I don't know what's
- 1:42:28Speaker 1: behind the programming and all this, although I do understand
- 1:42:30Speaker 1: it has a very nefarious component to it, or can
- 1:42:33Speaker 1: what motivated this huge accelerated push toward adopting and expanding AI.
- 1:42:39Speaker 1: Was it the positive societal benefits or was it for
- 1:42:42Speaker 1: this nefarius behind the scene purpose, like in doctrinating our
- 1:42:45Speaker 1: children into what seems to predominate within AI, which is
- 1:42:48Speaker 1: left winging ideology.
- 1:42:50Speaker 9: Yeah, no, left wing leaning ideology is absolutely baked in,
- 1:42:54Speaker 9: and it's baked into large language models LMS through AI chatbox.
- 1:42:59Speaker 9: There are here the roses economic boom. Currently we know
- 1:43:04Speaker 9: that one third of the S and P five hundred
- 1:43:05Speaker 9: is constituted around the mag seven otherwise known as the
- 1:43:09Speaker 9: Magnificent Seven, our seven largest tech companies. So it is
- 1:43:12Speaker 9: a tent pole economically. And we do know though that
- 1:43:15Speaker 9: what happened with China when China released Deep Seat, it's
- 1:43:19Speaker 9: AI model are one, it rocked America's in VideA six
- 1:43:22Speaker 9: hundred billion dollars, the first the biggest largest market cap
- 1:43:26Speaker 9: wipeout one day in in in history. So you've got
- 1:43:30Speaker 9: to tuggle war economically. But the real reason though that
- 1:43:33Speaker 9: you're seeing, particularly President Trump and the administration lean in
- 1:43:36Speaker 9: so strongly on AI is this, and it's China. And
- 1:43:40Speaker 9: the reason why I say in code read we have
- 1:43:42Speaker 9: to beat China without becoming China. Nobody wants to live
- 1:43:46Speaker 9: in a techno authoritarian surveillance state, right, I mean that
- 1:43:51Speaker 9: is we do. Yeah, we do not want to emulate.
- 1:43:54Speaker 2: As you know Brian the CCP.
- 1:43:57Speaker 9: Here's though, what we do want. We want to protect
- 1:44:00Speaker 9: our soldier, sailors, airmen, Marines and our special forces. And
- 1:44:02Speaker 9: here's why this really does matter. Whoever achieves dominance in
- 1:44:07Speaker 9: the AI race is going to have full spectrum dominance
- 1:44:10Speaker 9: on the battlefield and things like encryption, cybersecurity, hacking of
- 1:44:16Speaker 9: missile systems, and hacking of infrastructure. And you saw just
- 1:44:19Speaker 9: in the last couple of weeks Anthropics wouldn't even release
- 1:44:23Speaker 9: Mythos It's code hacking software because of the national security implications.
- 1:44:28Speaker 9: So it is real that we do have to beat China.
- 1:44:31Speaker 9: But what I wanted to get people to understand, though,
- 1:44:34Speaker 9: is even if you think it's all hyped, even if
- 1:44:37Speaker 9: you have still not come to the belief that AI
- 1:44:41Speaker 9: is reshaping everything, understand the Left plans to politically weaponize
- 1:44:45Speaker 9: AI as it relates to control in scan and band technology,
- 1:44:49Speaker 9: for censorship, in indoctrination of woke curriculum in our schools,
- 1:44:54Speaker 9: in being able to shape and mold the electoral attitudes
- 1:44:57Speaker 9: of people when they're doing an AI search, and racingly. Economically,
- 1:45:02Speaker 9: one of the biggest things, Brian, is that many of
- 1:45:04Speaker 9: Silicon Valley, who are the architects of AI, want universal
- 1:45:08Speaker 9: basic income. What is UBI universal basic income socialism? Right,
- 1:45:13Speaker 9: That's what they is, so they view it as an
- 1:45:15Speaker 9: economic reset opportunity, and so in code read I literally
- 1:45:18Speaker 9: have eighty pages over eight hundred in notes. This was
- 1:45:21Speaker 9: a two year deep to dive investigation. So I wanted
- 1:45:24Speaker 9: to try to shave everybody's learning curve off this because
- 1:45:27Speaker 9: it's a five dimensional chess game. The Left is going
- 1:45:31Speaker 9: to play and is with big tech on how they
- 1:45:33Speaker 9: can weaponize it politically, so and.
- 1:45:35Speaker 1: The point being, elites are planning on weaponizing artificial intelligence
- 1:45:38Speaker 1: job losses to push dependency, and I saw that, and
- 1:45:42Speaker 1: I understand how that cause people are most assuredly people
- 1:45:45Speaker 1: are going to lose jobs because of AI, I mean
- 1:45:46Speaker 1: white collar jobs, most notably I practice law for sixteen years,
- 1:45:50Speaker 1: and AI can make it so easy to at least
- 1:45:52Speaker 1: do an initial draft, not that you would ever rely
- 1:45:54Speaker 1: on something generated by AI and server to the court.
- 1:45:57Speaker 1: You're going to get in trouble, but it cuts out
- 1:45:59Speaker 1: so much time, so fewer lawyers are going to be needed.
- 1:46:01Speaker 1: That's one area that will be impacted, just one unfamiliar with.
- 1:46:04Speaker 1: But the one thing that it seems to bring with
- 1:46:07Speaker 1: it the eradication or elimination of this nonsensical green energy nonsense.
- 1:46:12Speaker 1: You can't power these centers without a massive amount of power,
- 1:46:15Speaker 1: which ultimately is going to serve to benefit us. The
- 1:46:17Speaker 1: advancement of small modular reactors, the reawakening to the world
- 1:46:21Speaker 1: that nuclear power generates gazillions of amounts of power without
- 1:46:25Speaker 1: any carbon dioxide to the ecent. You care about that,
- 1:46:28Speaker 1: So that might be a corollary benefit. But this dependency thing,
- 1:46:33Speaker 1: I worry about that. As you talked about universal basic income,
- 1:46:37Speaker 1: they're already dumbing down our children just via the education
- 1:46:40Speaker 1: system generally. And if kids are going to start relying
- 1:46:43Speaker 1: on AI, they're only going to get a one sided
- 1:46:44Speaker 1: political view of the world, and that's going to support
- 1:46:47Speaker 1: their idea of being a dependent on somebody else's labor.
- 1:46:51Speaker 9: No, you just hit three really important vital points that
- 1:46:54Speaker 9: everybody has to really marinate their mind on. Number one
- 1:46:56Speaker 9: is the energy explosion. You're right one of the ironies here. Now,
- 1:47:00Speaker 9: people who for decades preached to us that global warming
- 1:47:03Speaker 9: is this, you know, horrible thing. In Silicon Valley, big
- 1:47:05Speaker 9: tech and leads were the ones leading that charge. Now
- 1:47:08Speaker 9: all of a sudden they're realizing, wait a minute, we
- 1:47:10Speaker 9: need energy dominance. So it's a kind of a funny
- 1:47:13Speaker 9: irony there. Number two is on the dependency in incode
- 1:47:18Speaker 9: and I talk about the largest universal basic income study
- 1:47:22Speaker 9: ever mailbox money, a checked for with no strings attached,
- 1:47:26Speaker 9: was done in twenty sixteen. It was it lasted several years.
- 1:47:30Speaker 9: It was a sixty million dollar study. Who did that
- 1:47:34Speaker 9: study and who funded it? Sam Altman at open AI
- 1:47:38Speaker 9: now Bryant. Why in twenty sixteen is Sam Altman doing
- 1:47:43Speaker 9: the biggest most comprehensive longitudinal study And when was a
- 1:47:48Speaker 9: chat schipt released by open AI and Sam Waldman. It
- 1:47:52Speaker 9: wasn't until November of twenty twenty two, six years ahead.
- 1:47:56Speaker 9: He is doing the biggest, most robust studies in how
- 1:48:00Speaker 9: to redistribute money toward well toward global towards socialism. So
- 1:48:07Speaker 9: people have to understand this is a very very very
- 1:48:10Speaker 9: fast moving political game that left elites are playing. They
- 1:48:15Speaker 9: understand this is the power grab of the century. Whoever
- 1:48:18Speaker 9: gets this control and who gets their first is going
- 1:48:21Speaker 9: to dominate. The thing you brought up about critical thinking
- 1:48:24Speaker 9: is essential. The studies are very clear. It's called they
- 1:48:27Speaker 9: call it cognitive offloading, which is just a fancy way
- 1:48:30Speaker 9: of saying a student a child. Whenever they're using AI
- 1:48:33Speaker 9: as a mental crutch is going to have an erosion
- 1:48:36Speaker 9: of critical thinking. Shill we and we know, but all
- 1:48:39Speaker 9: of us that came up, we know.
- 1:48:41Speaker 2: You have to struggle with that algebra question.
- 1:48:43Speaker 9: You have to work hard and figure out wait a minute,
- 1:48:45Speaker 9: I don't understand this part of the calculus question.
- 1:48:47Speaker 2: You have to have that struggle.
- 1:48:49Speaker 9: When you just get the answer spit out instantly, you
- 1:48:53Speaker 9: start to lose that that critical thinking layer. And so
- 1:48:58Speaker 9: we have to understand, yes, there are going to be
- 1:49:00Speaker 9: benefits of AI tutors if they're pedagogically sound guardrail, they
- 1:49:04Speaker 9: use a socratic method, they don't just spit out the answers.
- 1:49:08Speaker 9: But there are so many, so many landmines that come
- 1:49:11Speaker 9: with those roses.
- 1:49:11Speaker 1: What in Hall author code read left right, China and
- 1:49:14Speaker 1: the race to control AI. Your math illustration, I think
- 1:49:17Speaker 1: is a sound one. But at least it's concrete two
- 1:49:20Speaker 1: and two is always four when you add them together.
- 1:49:22Speaker 1: There's no argument. There's no political bias built into a
- 1:49:24Speaker 1: mathematical equation. There is with everything else. So you know
- 1:49:30Speaker 1: this critical thinking component, you're just told, well, three distribution
- 1:49:34Speaker 1: is a good thing, it's right, it's moral, and you
- 1:49:36Speaker 1: don't break it down from an economic standpoint, like, for example,
- 1:49:39Speaker 1: let me ask you this one in hall. When everybody's
- 1:49:41Speaker 1: on a universal basic income and receiving a paycheck from
- 1:49:43Speaker 1: the government without doing anything, without adding to the tax base,
- 1:49:47Speaker 1: what the hell happens when everybody's on the public doal,
- 1:49:50Speaker 1: isn't that system collapse? Whining because nobody's funding the payments anymore?
- 1:49:54Speaker 1: I don't know how this ends up working in the
- 1:49:55Speaker 1: final analysis.
- 1:49:57Speaker 9: Well, it's even worse than that, Brian, You're absolutely right,
- 1:50:00Speaker 9: and that first of all, the lat too. Literally, just
- 1:50:02Speaker 9: a handful of days ago, Elon Musk or Riches man
- 1:50:05Speaker 9: on the planet, uh said we're gonna have quote universal
- 1:50:09Speaker 9: high income u h I. And he doesn't really explain
- 1:50:13Speaker 9: how that's supposed to work or who how how the
- 1:50:15Speaker 9: checks exactly work. But it's way deeper than that. Okay,
- 1:50:18Speaker 9: it's it's far deeper than that. We know that when
- 1:50:21Speaker 9: you remove the Protestant work ethic that has powered that
- 1:50:25Speaker 9: the people's ability to get up and work and have
- 1:50:28Speaker 9: structure and meaning and and and purpose and identity in
- 1:50:31Speaker 9: their lives, and we just say, oh, we're gonna all
- 1:50:34Speaker 9: sit around and live this leisure lifestyle and wait for
- 1:50:37Speaker 9: the government to have our money. Number one? What what
- 1:50:40Speaker 9: control will will come with that? What DEI requirement social
- 1:50:44Speaker 9: credit score must I meet to get my my government
- 1:50:47Speaker 9: check from from dear leader who's supposed to drop me
- 1:50:51Speaker 9: my money? If I if I, if I talk about
- 1:50:54Speaker 9: you know, my faith or or or or or challenge
- 1:50:57Speaker 9: a social edict that the left doesn't like, and there's
- 1:50:59Speaker 9: a a left leaning president, does that mean I'm not
- 1:51:02Speaker 9: able to get my you know, my ration from the
- 1:51:05Speaker 9: government monthly for my you know, social credit because violation.
- 1:51:09Speaker 9: The other thing too, though, is that there's what I
- 1:51:12Speaker 9: call in code read the last chapter is on God, faith,
- 1:51:16Speaker 9: reason and what I call the coming crisis of meaning
- 1:51:19Speaker 9: if what's one of the first things that happens when
- 1:51:21Speaker 9: we go to a party with our family or friends,
- 1:51:24Speaker 9: we said, oh, what do you do for a living?
- 1:51:26Speaker 9: Especially for young men, the studies are very clear when
- 1:51:28Speaker 9: a man doesn't have the ability to get up, have
- 1:51:30Speaker 9: that structure, have that drive, get to be able to
- 1:51:33Speaker 9: provide for their friends or family themselves, all manner of
- 1:51:37Speaker 9: social pathologies increase. Addiction rates go through the roof, self
- 1:51:41Speaker 9: harm rates go through the roof. Crime rates go through
- 1:51:43Speaker 9: the roof. If you are going to have people and
- 1:51:46Speaker 9: say there's no reason to study hard because the AI
- 1:51:49Speaker 9: is smarter. There's no reason to work hard because the
- 1:51:51Speaker 9: AI is going to do the work. And there's no
- 1:51:53Speaker 9: reason to actually have to provide for yourself or your
- 1:51:55Speaker 9: family because you're going to get your mailbox money from
- 1:51:58Speaker 9: the from the government. We are going to have a
- 1:52:01Speaker 9: spiral of crisis of meaning unlike anything we've seen. So
- 1:52:04Speaker 9: this is real, it is coming. And I was deeply
- 1:52:08Speaker 9: concerned that the conservative movement is behind on this, not
- 1:52:12Speaker 9: because we're not smart, because we're not in these rooms
- 1:52:15Speaker 9: Silicon Valley, eighty five percent of all donations floats Democrat. Okay,
- 1:52:19Speaker 9: so we're not part of that conversation. And I wanted
- 1:52:21Speaker 9: to get us caught up and realize how fast this
- 1:52:23Speaker 9: is moving and what the game is going to be
- 1:52:25Speaker 9: and how it is played.
- 1:52:26Speaker 1: Well, remember, part of the cake that's been baked includes
- 1:52:30Speaker 1: the idea that the work ethic in and of itself
- 1:52:33Speaker 1: is a racist concept Winten. That's right, evil white supremacist
- 1:52:37Speaker 1: concept of actual working in return for the reward of
- 1:52:40Speaker 1: problem contributing to society. Well, and finally, the propaganda element.
- 1:52:45Speaker 1: One of my prior segment talking with Tom's Austowski from
- 1:52:49Speaker 1: We the People Convention mentioned that the Chinese Communist Party
- 1:52:51Speaker 1: is behind this anti AI propaganda effort, which I suppose
- 1:52:55Speaker 1: supports your argument about how important this is in terms
- 1:52:57Speaker 1: of warfare.
- 1:53:02Speaker 9: Yes, that is Yes, that's exactly right. They do not
- 1:53:05Speaker 9: want us to win because they understand the stakes. And
- 1:53:09Speaker 9: so if you get there first and you have military dominance,
- 1:53:13Speaker 9: that also means you're gonna have economic dominance, and so
- 1:53:16Speaker 9: they need to be able to chip away. This is
- 1:53:18Speaker 9: what's so tricky. Two things hit me true at.
- 1:53:21Speaker 2: The same time.
- 1:53:21Speaker 9: And often are you know, A, there are all these dangers,
- 1:53:25Speaker 9: these land mines, and b there are these essential roses.
- 1:53:29Speaker 9: And this is why it's a whole new policy matrix.
- 1:53:32Speaker 9: And and so that's why in the book, every chapter
- 1:53:35Speaker 9: is on, you know, ones on education, next work. We
- 1:53:37Speaker 9: haven't even gotten to talking about human relationships and AI
- 1:53:40Speaker 9: girlfriend and chatlots, right, but but all of those things.
- 1:53:45Speaker 9: So we have to be able to understand how to
- 1:53:48Speaker 9: really shepherd our children and our grandkids through this very
- 1:53:52Speaker 9: very new world that we're all entering.
- 1:53:54Speaker 1: Speaking of critical thinking, someone could be so taken with
- 1:53:57Speaker 1: artificial intelligence and their AI girlfriend that they actually pursued.
- 1:54:00Speaker 1: He either talking with and interacting with a real human
- 1:54:03Speaker 1: being and not a blanket set of ones and zeros
- 1:54:05Speaker 1: win and it's frustrating. I appreciate you so much for
- 1:54:08Speaker 1: bringing us all to everyone's attention and everybody's reading. It's
- 1:54:11Speaker 1: a New York Times bestseller. Get a copy. You can
- 1:54:13Speaker 1: do it at fifty five kr sea dot com. Winton
- 1:54:15Speaker 1: Hall's book code read The Left, the Right, China and
- 1:54:18Speaker 1: the Race to Control Ai. A salute to you went
- 1:54:20Speaker 1: and you did a hell of a great job, and
- 1:54:21Speaker 1: I appreciate your spending time with my listeners of me
- 1:54:23Speaker 1: here on the fifty five KRS Morning Shows, a twenty
- 1:54:27Speaker 1: nine and fifty five KCD talk station. A very happy
- 1:54:29Speaker 1: Tuesday to You're tuned into the right time if you
- 1:54:31Speaker 1: want to find out what's going on the situation between
- 1:54:33Speaker 1: the United States Israel on one side, and of course
- 1:54:35Speaker 1: the Iranians on the other. Welcome back to the fifty
- 1:54:37Speaker 1: five carssee morning show with a podcast he calls the
- 1:54:39Speaker 1: Daniel Davis Deep Dive. Find out wherever you get your podcast.
- 1:54:42Speaker 1: Retired Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis, my friend, it's great seeing
- 1:54:45Speaker 1: you and talking to you as it is every week
- 1:54:47Speaker 1: on the morning show. Good to see again, j.
- 1:54:49Speaker 12: A lighted to be here, Brian, thanks for having me back.
- 1:54:51Speaker 1: All right, So is jd Vance on the plane or not?
- 1:54:54Speaker 1: We look up this morning. Last night he was on
- 1:54:56Speaker 1: his way. He was gonna leave last night, didn't leave
- 1:54:58Speaker 1: last night, gonna leave this morning. Seems to be a
- 1:54:59Speaker 1: breakd out of communications. We have these pret negotiations, the
- 1:55:03Speaker 1: second round of talks. We're going to go forward, No,
- 1:55:05Speaker 1: says the Iranians know they're not. We didn't agree to that.
- 1:55:07Speaker 1: You guys have violated the truth that we had talked about,
- 1:55:10Speaker 1: and we're not gonna sit down. But I get conflicting reports.
- 1:55:14Speaker 1: It seems to me that there's some confusion as to
- 1:55:16Speaker 1: even who we're supposed to be talking with. Of course,
- 1:55:19Speaker 1: you got the hard line Iran Revolutionary guards, which presumably
- 1:55:22Speaker 1: have the greatest amount of control, considering they have the weapons,
- 1:55:25Speaker 1: and you've got the sort of clerical government that maybe
- 1:55:28Speaker 1: sounds like it might want to sit down or something
- 1:55:31Speaker 1: where Daniel, can you make some sense out of this
- 1:55:33Speaker 1: for my listeners to me, because I am confused.
- 1:55:36Speaker 12: Yeah, that's that's kind of going around. Because it's even
- 1:55:40Speaker 12: President Trump himself added to the confusion because at one
- 1:55:43Speaker 12: point he told ABC News that JD. Advance would be going,
- 1:55:45Speaker 12: and then he told ABC News the Advance wouldn't be going,
- 1:55:48Speaker 12: and then later on we'll know he probably is going
- 1:55:50Speaker 12: to go, and then all the things you added to that.
- 1:55:53Speaker 12: On the Iranian side, there there's a lot of confusion.
- 1:55:56Speaker 12: I think more on the western side and interpreting things
- 1:56:00Speaker 12: as I see it, and I've talked to some experts,
- 1:56:03Speaker 12: I don't see any daylight between the Iranian delegations, whether
- 1:56:06Speaker 12: it's the IRGC or the political government.
- 1:56:09Speaker 1: They're all one entity.
- 1:56:10Speaker 12: I mean, they always have been, so I think that
- 1:56:12Speaker 12: we're looking for some daylight. I think between some of
- 1:56:15Speaker 12: the sizes as though something that can be exploited, But
- 1:56:17Speaker 12: I don't see any I think they're all definitely on
- 1:56:20Speaker 12: the same side on the Iranian side. And the thing
- 1:56:23Speaker 12: we got to understand is that Iran feels like it
- 1:56:26Speaker 12: is in a dominant position because if it's controlled, the strait.
- 1:56:28Speaker 2: Of horror moves.
- 1:56:29Speaker 12: The fact that it weathered that first forty days of
- 1:56:31Speaker 12: attack and everything we threw out them and they still
- 1:56:34Speaker 12: retain that control, and there's no reason to think that
- 1:56:36Speaker 12: we can take it militarily if it goes another forty days.
- 1:56:39Speaker 12: So that puts them in a pretty confident position heading
- 1:56:42Speaker 12: into the talks, if they're even going to go, and
- 1:56:44Speaker 12: at least as of literally right before we came on
- 1:56:47Speaker 12: the ear here, I saw one report that said, well,
- 1:56:49Speaker 12: now it looks like for Wednesday they are going to
- 1:56:51Speaker 12: send somebody theirs not so not today. But then again
- 1:56:55Speaker 12: who knows, because I checked the official Iranian news agency
- 1:56:59Speaker 12: right before we can on it and they're not reporting that,
- 1:57:01Speaker 12: So who knows if it's going to happen. But Iran
- 1:57:03Speaker 12: had said last not I mean all of them with
- 1:57:05Speaker 12: a Galliboff, a Rockshie.
- 1:57:07Speaker 1: And possessed gien the president.
- 1:57:09Speaker 12: They were all very kind of cocky even about how
- 1:57:13Speaker 12: they are not going to give away their sovereignty even
- 1:57:15Speaker 12: if there are talks. So if they, if they happen,
- 1:57:18Speaker 12: and I strongly hope that they do, Yeah, I don't
- 1:57:21Speaker 12: think that we should expect.
- 1:57:22Speaker 1: Some kind of big breakthrough, all right, but at least
- 1:57:25Speaker 1: it would pause the newest of the red lines, which
- 1:57:27Speaker 1: apparently is tomorrow evening, sometime in the evening, that's the
- 1:57:32Speaker 1: that's the time. Upon what Donald Trump said he's going
- 1:57:34Speaker 1: to start dropping big bombs.
- 1:57:36Speaker 12: He did, yeah, and so I think that's that's why
- 1:57:38Speaker 12: it's it's uh probably I think a better chance to
- 1:57:41Speaker 12: not that there will be a meeting at least tomorrow,
- 1:57:44Speaker 12: so before that would happen. There has also been a
- 1:57:46Speaker 12: substantial build up in American combat power, even above where
- 1:57:50Speaker 12: it was. There is more air power, there is more
- 1:57:52Speaker 12: naval power in the in the region now than there
- 1:57:55Speaker 12: was at the start of this war. Loss of C
- 1:57:58Speaker 12: seventeen's have been rolling in, bringing who knows what all
- 1:58:01Speaker 12: kinds of military gears. So we are definitely geared up
- 1:58:05Speaker 12: to come back in a very big way militarily if
- 1:58:08Speaker 12: President Trump gives that order or they can stand down too.
- 1:58:11Speaker 12: And of course Iran is well aware that they can
- 1:58:14Speaker 12: see the same open source reports plus the stuff they
- 1:58:16Speaker 12: probably get from both China and Russia intelligence wise, so
- 1:58:20Speaker 12: everybody knows what's coming. It's just a matter of who's
- 1:58:24Speaker 12: going to have the more steely determination. And right now
- 1:58:26Speaker 12: I don't see Iran giving into anything, which makes me
- 1:58:30Speaker 12: feel like we're probably heading back to conflict.
- 1:58:32Speaker 1: Well longer term, and I don't know how much longer
- 1:58:35Speaker 1: in term we're talking about, because I'm not that greatly
- 1:58:37Speaker 1: familiar with the Iranian economy. But yes, they are having
- 1:58:39Speaker 1: a profound influence by controlling the straight of horm Moves
- 1:58:41Speaker 1: and preventing traffic from going through. Twenty percent of the
- 1:58:44Speaker 1: world's oil and other fertilizes and things are going through there.
- 1:58:47Speaker 1: But isn't their entire economy kind of based on traffic
- 1:58:50Speaker 1: going through the straight of horm Moods. So are they
- 1:58:52Speaker 1: not harming themselves by keeping the whole thing shut down?
- 1:58:55Speaker 1: And of course the United States is corollary response, which
- 1:58:57Speaker 1: is to start preventing Iranian ships or ships coming to
- 1:59:01Speaker 1: and from I running imports from passage. So they kind
- 1:59:04Speaker 1: of had it seems to me at least a very
- 1:59:06Speaker 1: difficult problem themselves with what they have done by militarily
- 1:59:10Speaker 1: appropriate trying to control the strait of hor Moves.
- 1:59:12Speaker 12: Well, it comes down to you, there's no question about it.
- 1:59:15Speaker 1: You're correct.
- 1:59:16Speaker 12: Both sides are harmed by the strait being closed, US
- 1:59:19Speaker 12: and the Iranian side. The question is that this is
- 1:59:22Speaker 12: a great game of chicken, who will blink first, who
- 1:59:25Speaker 12: will be harmed the most, and most importantly, who can
- 1:59:28Speaker 12: endure the most under pain and who can suffer the longest?
- 1:59:31Speaker 12: And I think the Iran side feels like they can
- 1:59:34Speaker 12: because they feel like that the cost it would pose
- 1:59:36Speaker 12: on them, and they foresaw this from the beginning, were
- 1:59:38Speaker 12: prepared for it. They said, look, we've gone through an
- 1:59:41Speaker 12: eight year war with Iraq. We suffered a lot, then
- 1:59:43Speaker 12: we can suffer a lot now. We don't want to
- 1:59:46Speaker 12: lose our income. It's not all gone from the Strait.
- 1:59:48Speaker 12: There's like twenty percent that can go out other ways
- 1:59:51Speaker 12: from pipelines and whatnot, other things to the Caspian Sea,
- 1:59:54Speaker 12: so that's not totally cut off, but it will be
- 1:59:56Speaker 12: hugely influential. But they feel like they can suffer a
- 1:59:59Speaker 12: lot longer than we can, and they may be rot
- 2:00:01Speaker 12: because you know, this oil. If it stays up like
- 2:00:04Speaker 12: this and the supply stays down as much as it
- 2:00:07Speaker 12: is for even a month or two more, we could
- 2:00:09Speaker 12: be in real dire streets, not just the United States
- 2:00:11Speaker 12: but our allies in Asia, Europe, and Africa. This has
- 2:00:16Speaker 12: some real and those are all pressure points that will
- 2:00:18Speaker 12: be put on Washington to do whatever it takes to
- 2:00:20Speaker 12: get this off, because they didn't want to go to
- 2:00:22Speaker 12: this war in the first place. So I think Iran
- 2:00:24Speaker 12: is counting on pressure, not just from themselves but from others.
- 2:00:28Speaker 1: And I agree with you that they have demonstrated the
- 2:00:29Speaker 1: ability to do things for the long haul. You mentioned
- 2:00:31Speaker 1: I rock, but I guess that decades long. I mean
- 2:00:34Speaker 1: the rock's right next door, so they can't move there
- 2:00:37Speaker 1: right on top of each other, and obviously disagreed for
- 2:00:39Speaker 1: a long time. But the nature of war has changed
- 2:00:41Speaker 1: so dramatically. I mean, back when they were fighting amongst
- 2:00:44Speaker 1: each other, this wasn't drone warfare. This is boots on
- 2:00:46Speaker 1: the ground shooting at each other kind of thing, and
- 2:00:48Speaker 1: not by remote control so much. Now we have this
- 2:00:51Speaker 1: whole remote control warfare, and the Iranians certainly know how
- 2:00:55Speaker 1: to wage one of those. But we we've come up
- 2:00:58Speaker 1: with some pretty slick things ourselves, and so I just
- 2:01:01Speaker 1: with the amount of money and resources, it seems more
- 2:01:04Speaker 1: like an apple's oranges comparison to compare the United States
- 2:01:07Speaker 1: and Israel going after the Iranians versus their their long
- 2:01:10Speaker 1: term situation with the Iraqis or do I have that wrong? Well,
- 2:01:13Speaker 1: I see, I would.
- 2:01:14Speaker 12: I would say it's more like it was apples and
- 2:01:17Speaker 12: apples in the nineteen eighties and now it's oranges oranges
- 2:01:20Speaker 12: here because both sides have changed, the nature of warfare
- 2:01:22Speaker 12: has changed, and it's changed equal nearly equally on both sides.
- 2:01:26Speaker 12: But the issue is the comparative between the two sides today,
- 2:01:31Speaker 12: and what are we going to do with our remote
- 2:01:33Speaker 12: control bombs. We're talking a country that is as big
- 2:01:35Speaker 12: as most of Western Europe, and it's got all these
- 2:01:38Speaker 12: mountain ranges and things they can hot under, things that
- 2:01:41Speaker 12: even a lot of these missiles can't penetrate. And you know,
- 2:01:44Speaker 12: just blowing up a bunch of buildings on the surface
- 2:01:47Speaker 12: or attacking this equipment or that headquarters, that's not going
- 2:01:52Speaker 12: to cause Iran to capitulate anytime soon. I mean, you
- 2:01:55Speaker 12: would have to almost just turn Iran into Gaza, and
- 2:01:59Speaker 12: you know that takes more bombs in the entirety of
- 2:02:02Speaker 12: all of our arsenals put together, and we still wouldn't
- 2:02:04Speaker 12: reach there. And even that didn't work in Gossel. So
- 2:02:07Speaker 12: I think that it's reasonable to suggest that Iran can
- 2:02:10Speaker 12: go a whole lot longer than they have, and.
- 2:02:12Speaker 1: That factors in your conclusions in that regard, factors in
- 2:02:15Speaker 1: if Donald Trump goes come full on rogue and starts
- 2:02:17Speaker 1: bombing all of their power generation facilities and their infrastructure,
- 2:02:21Speaker 1: and some say civilian targets as well. If you shut
- 2:02:24Speaker 1: them down and turn their power off, they're still going
- 2:02:27Speaker 1: to survive. Daniel Davis well.
- 2:02:30Speaker 12: And it's even more than just surviving, because the Iranians
- 2:02:32Speaker 12: have been very.
- 2:02:33Speaker 1: Specific in saying if.
- 2:02:35Speaker 12: You do that, President Trump, and if you do the
- 2:02:37Speaker 12: hit that target set that you said, here's our target reply,
- 2:02:41Speaker 12: and it is all the same kind of targets in
- 2:02:43Speaker 12: all the GCC countries and Israel, and they have demonstrated
- 2:02:47Speaker 12: that their missiles can penetrate our air defenses and it's
- 2:02:50Speaker 12: likely that they would be able to hit all those
- 2:02:52Speaker 12: targets and it.
- 2:02:53Speaker 1: Would absolutely devastate the region.
- 2:02:56Speaker 12: Because now then the Strake won't be closed because of
- 2:02:59Speaker 12: a political decision that you can just turn off with
- 2:03:01Speaker 12: an agreement. It'll be a physical constraint because the production
- 2:03:04Speaker 12: facilities will be destroyed. It could take many months or
- 2:03:07Speaker 12: years in some cases to replace it.
- 2:03:09Speaker 1: So we will be catastrophic.
- 2:03:11Speaker 12: So Man, I think that that's not an issue about
- 2:03:14Speaker 12: last and that's a game of even bigger strategic chicken
- 2:03:18Speaker 12: that we don't want to get into, because when you're
- 2:03:20Speaker 12: talking about an existential threat for the Iranian side, they
- 2:03:23Speaker 12: have no reason to withhold and to restrain themselves once
- 2:03:26Speaker 12: you go to that level, because you know it could
- 2:03:30Speaker 12: literally destroy them and they won't sit silent, and I
- 2:03:32Speaker 12: don't think we want to find out if they mean it.
- 2:03:34Speaker 1: And maybe that is the answer the question was going
- 2:03:36Speaker 1: to ask you. The parliamentary speaker, Muhammad Bagar Caliabol whatever
- 2:03:41Speaker 1: his name, anyway, he said, we do not accept negotiations
- 2:03:44Speaker 1: under shadow threats. And in the last two weeks we
- 2:03:46Speaker 1: have been preparing to show new cards on the battlefield.
- 2:03:50Speaker 1: I've been puzzling over that. It's been widely reported all
- 2:03:53Speaker 1: over New Cards on the battlefield. The first thing I
- 2:03:55Speaker 1: thought of was the situation in Ron with the playing
- 2:03:57Speaker 1: cards that we passed around with the the figures like
- 2:04:01Speaker 1: Bagdad Bob on them. But what do you think that
- 2:04:04Speaker 1: explanation just gave me? With all these targets that they
- 2:04:06Speaker 1: projected out there, that's the quote unquote new cards on
- 2:04:10Speaker 1: the battlefield they're referring to.
- 2:04:11Speaker 12: I don't think so, because these are target sets that
- 2:04:14Speaker 12: they're gonna attack. The question is to attack with what?
- 2:04:18Speaker 12: And there has been widely reported even from the beginning
- 2:04:21Speaker 12: of the war that they the Iranians had a number
- 2:04:23Speaker 12: of new kind of hypersonic missiles that they were holding
- 2:04:27Speaker 12: in reserve for a moment like this, and they were
- 2:04:30Speaker 12: using a lot of their older stuff that had been
- 2:04:31Speaker 12: made from twenty twelve to twenty twenty in terms of missiles,
- 2:04:35Speaker 12: and once they'd used those, and we'd used a lot
- 2:04:37Speaker 12: of our interceptors, then they would bring out their biggest
- 2:04:40Speaker 12: guns and things that have a very high probability of
- 2:04:43Speaker 12: penetrating any kind of defense and are very precise.
- 2:04:46Speaker 1: That is what I think that they mean.
- 2:04:48Speaker 12: We'll have to wait and see and hopefully it stays
- 2:04:50Speaker 12: in the theoretical.
- 2:04:51Speaker 1: Realm from a strategy perspective, and this'll be our last question, Dan,
- 2:04:54Speaker 1: and I appreciate your indulging me along these lines. If
- 2:04:56Speaker 1: they have that kind of missile, I guess I just
- 2:04:58Speaker 1: wonder from a mi military perspective, if you want to
- 2:05:01Speaker 1: let your foe know that you do have the goods,
- 2:05:05Speaker 1: wouldn't you launch one of those at some city that
- 2:05:07Speaker 1: they've already tried to bomb before, maybe even to a
- 2:05:09Speaker 1: target in Israel, just to prove that this is what
- 2:05:11Speaker 1: you're this is what the response is going to be
- 2:05:14Speaker 1: if you don't leave us alone or otherwise resolve this well.
- 2:05:18Speaker 12: I mean that's kind of where the position that they're
- 2:05:20Speaker 12: in right now, and they just said, look, we're going
- 2:05:22Speaker 12: to use our conventional stuff first of all, keep that
- 2:05:24Speaker 12: sort of as a as a secret thread or you know,
- 2:05:27Speaker 12: make you concerned by seeing that the stuff that we're
- 2:05:30Speaker 12: saying older is still penetrating your air defenses. So just
- 2:05:33Speaker 12: imagine if this is true and we actually have this
- 2:05:35Speaker 12: capability here. But then they wouldn't from military perspective, I
- 2:05:40Speaker 12: wouldn't bring that out until I was ready for some
- 2:05:42Speaker 12: kind of decisive strike, something that I wanted to make
- 2:05:45Speaker 12: sure that you didn't get a chance to figure out
- 2:05:47Speaker 12: before with this you know, warning strike, because then I
- 2:05:49Speaker 12: can do some analysis and see is there some way
- 2:05:51Speaker 12: I can maybe mitigate against it. I want the first
- 2:05:54Speaker 12: time that you see it to be when I needed
- 2:05:56Speaker 12: to hit the target.
- 2:05:57Speaker 1: Daniel Davis Deep diye I find wherever you get your podcast.
