• 0:02
  Speaker 1: I'm more mega now make America great again than I've
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: ever been. Making mornings great again. First thing today on
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: the Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: Thank you for joining us on this Ted's D, where
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: we celebrate everybody's inner Tedness, that is the knowledge of
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: what it is God has put you on God's green
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: earth to do, your expertise at it, and the rewards
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: that come to you that keep you from having to
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: worry about what the haters got to hate about this morning.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: Joining us is a special presentation of First Thing Today
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: news and our first things. is Congressman John McGuire, one
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: of the folks who is facing one of those ardent challenges,
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: is considered a toss-up by some of the people in
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: the world, which is interesting because his district, two years
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: ago when he won, he won the district by 15 points.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: But he's not up against a Soros-endorsed candidate. He's up
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: against a guy who for many years ran George Soros'
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: own organization. He is Soros Jr. I guess he was
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: watching it just until Alex got old enough to take
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: the keys of the car. He is John McGuire. John,
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: how are you doing this morning, sir?
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: Hey, I'm doing well.
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: And, yeah, Perriello, he ran the Open Society Foundation for
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: George Soros.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he is.
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: So, yeah.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's just very woke with his Green New Deal,
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: cap and trade, Unaffordable Care Act. I mean, he's not
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: a good fit for the fifth district for sure.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: I actually saw something where he said he was running
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: to fix a broken health care system. I'm like, dude, really?
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: And I guess he figures it's been long enough that
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: we may have forgotten that he was the tie-breaking vote
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: that created Obamacare. So if it's a broken system, you know,
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: he broke it. So this is fascinating to me. But
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: now you you are in Texas right now for the
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: for the convention, the midterm convention. Tell us what that's like,
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: because this is the first time they've ever held one
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: of these.
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: You know, well, the Democrats, they won't have a convention
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: like this because they're running away from their record. In fact,
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: just like Spanberger, they're trying to run on our record.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: But it's not going to work.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: You know, if they get control, they're going to open
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: the borders, put dangerous criminals back on the street and
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: put boys back, girls sports and all this other stupid stuff.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: And so we're basically— this convention is to get the troops
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: rallied up, fired up to row in the same direction,
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: and we're going to tout our wins. You probably remember
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: when President Trump first took office in his second term,
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: we didn't need new legislation. We just needed a new
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: president to secure the southern border. And murder rates are
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: at 125 year low. Overdoses are down. We've brought $ 19
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: trillion investment back into the.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: Country, $ 20.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: Billion investment back in the fifth. So we're going to
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: talk about our record, get people fired up and make
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: sure we win the midterms.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, and it's interesting to me because as
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: they do more and more machinations, more and more court
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: battles and everything else, they don't portray themselves as a
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: party that's confident that they're going to You know, live
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: up to reputation and take the midterms there. They're acting
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: like they're in a bind because they're way behind.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know what to believe with the Democrats.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: You know, I have a question for Democrats. I want
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: to ask them, when are you going to stop being
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: for them and start being for us? And what I
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: mean by that is, when are you going to stop
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: being for the people that are trying to destroy our
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: country and start being.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: For we the people?
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: You know, thank God we got a president with a
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: backbone that secured that border and is keeping the American
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: people safe and is focusing on a better future for
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: all Americans.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: Well, talk about Iran for a minute, John, because it
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: has been my contention, and I have no other great
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: gravitas than I've been doing this a little while. I've
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: covered a lot of these news stories, and there is
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: no greater state sponsor of terrorism. Here we are coming
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: up on the 25th anniversary of the terror attacks of
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: September 11th. And George Bush said, we're going to go
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: after the state sponsors of terror. And apparently he didn't
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: mean Iran, even though they were the most obvious and
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: blatant ones. I mean, they take out page full page
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: ads in The New York Times saying, yeah, we did that.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: You know, is this finally putting a finer point on
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: the fact that these these have been the the I
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: guess the right term, the money bags behind so much
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: of the terror that's been going on in the world?
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: But you mentioned 9-11. I don't think any of us
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: saw it coming where someone like Mondami would become the
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: mayor of New York City and bring his socialist Marxist ideas.
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: But Iran is the number one state sponsor of terror,
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: and their proxies over the last 47 years have killed
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: thousands of soldiers and citizens. And like you said, they're
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: the number one state sponsor of terror. And every president
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: has put a red line in the sand. And when
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: Iran crosses it, we just give them money. But President
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: Trump said, no, we've got a line in the sand
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: and we're going to have a backbone and we're going
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: to stop this number one state sponsor of terror. And,
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: you know, if Biden hadn't shut down ANWR and stopped
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: energy production and refinery in America, we'd be well on
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: our way to be an energy dominant right now. But
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: it takes a while to turn the ship around and
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: we're turning it around.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: You know, let me talk about one of the things
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: that's imperative in turning it around from what I see
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: is is the prosperity of Americans. You talked about the
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: investment coming back in. The jobs numbers have not been bad.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: There's been some job creation, yet the punditry still talks
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: about economic woes. Why is that, John?
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: Well, because they don't want President Trump to have a victory.
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: If the United States was a big airplane and all
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: the American people were the passengers and President Trump was
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: the pilot, they want him to fail. Which means if
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: they want the country to fail, you know, if President
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: Trump cured cancer, we all know they say that he
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: put doctors out of work. But he is working hard.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: He has a heart for the American people. And the guy,
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: I mean, I was on the phone with him at
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: 3 a.m. when we passed the one big beautiful bill.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: He was more awake than me. This guy doesn't have
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: to do this. He's got unbelievable energy. And he's working
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: around the clock to make America great again for all Americans.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: And it's such an honor to.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Be part of it.

  Speaker 9: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
• 8:07
  Speaker 9: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
• 8:13
  Speaker 9: I'm Dr. Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
• 8:18
  Speaker 9: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
• 8:22
  Speaker 9: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
• 8:26
  Speaker 9: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
• 8:32
  Speaker 9: The Mayo Clinic found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 8:37
  Speaker 9: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer,
• 8:43
  Speaker 9: or at least slow the spread of cancer, and in
• 8:46
  Speaker 9: many instances make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy
• 8:51
  Speaker 9: cells even from radiation. TotalWellness.com where we help you to

  Speaker 10: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
• 9:21

  Speaker 11: Hi everybody, I'm Jack Hanna. Since I was a boy
• 10:01
  Speaker 11: growing up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated
• 10:03
  Speaker 11: with animals. I'm not only in awe of their beauty
• 10:06
  Speaker 11: and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic. Just look
• 10:08
  Speaker 11: at the birds who gather supplies to build nests, or
• 10:11
  Speaker 11: Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,
• 10:14
  Speaker 11: or penguins who travel up to 500 miles to secure
• 10:17
  Speaker 11: food for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump
• 10:20
  Speaker 11: allows them to navigate the trees and the wild in
• 10:23
  Speaker 11: search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by
• 10:25
  Speaker 11: our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are our
• 10:29
  Speaker 11: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
• 10:32
  Speaker 11: they also perform life-saving work every day Dogs keep us
• 10:35
  Speaker 11: safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom
• 10:38
  Speaker 11: suffer from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when
• 10:41
  Speaker 11: there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have
• 10:44
  Speaker 11: a variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society
• 10:46
  Speaker 11: and help those in need. So please join me and

  Speaker 12: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah?
• 11:02
  Speaker 13: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
• 11:04
  Speaker 8: And now a speech.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
• 11:10
  Speaker 14: Heart and brain.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: Who's with me?
• 11:13
  Speaker 12: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed. And my
• 11:15
  Speaker 12: brain is saying, when it's time to go home, somebody
• 11:18
  Speaker 12: call me a ride.
• 11:19
  Speaker 13: Love that guy.
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: Me too.
• 11:21
  Speaker 15: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
• 11:24
  Speaker 15: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
• 11:29
  Speaker 16: Did you know that more than half our household energy
• 11:31
  Speaker 16: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
• 11:35
  Speaker 16: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
• 11:40
  Speaker 16: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
• 11:42
  Speaker 16: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
• 11:46
  Speaker 16: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
• 11:51
  Speaker 16: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
• 11:54
  Speaker 16: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
• 11:58
  Speaker 16: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
• 12:01
  Speaker 16: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
• 12:04
  Speaker 16: the Energy Guide label. And there are day-to-day things you
• 12:08
  Speaker 16: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
• 12:11
  Speaker 16: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.
• 12:15
  Speaker 16: And keep air filters clean. For more tips on saving

• 12:32
  Speaker 17: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
• 12:35
  Speaker 17: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
• 12:40

• 13:06
  Speaker 13: Here is the sound of thousands of sounds.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: On this Ted Steve morning, thank you for letting us
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: be of service to you, visiting with Congressman John McGuire,
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: who's out in Texas at the RNC convention there. We
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: were talking about the Protect American Ratepayers Act. I wanted
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: to ask you about this one act that I find
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: that right now is one of the boogeymen out there.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: I've got report after report saying everyone who's campaigning against
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: data centers at the end of the food chain, they're
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: being funded by the Chinese who want us to kick
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: the data centers out of our country. But you have
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: been one of the sponsors of, and you're there on
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: the Energy and Commerce Committee. over the act to rein
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: in and to make sure that Americans are protected from
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: the electric utilities and the progressives in the government from
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: driving up costs based on the existence of data centers.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Talk about this act and what it does.
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so I'm on the Armed Services Committee and Oversight Committee,
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: but I do have oversight on nuclear energy by being
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: a member of the Armed Services Committee. But, yeah, I'm
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: a co-sponsor on this bill. And, you know, if you remember,
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: Perry Yellow said it was worth losing his congressional seat
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: for his cap and trade vote, which basically put these
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: carbon tax climate change agendas on farmers, individuals and businesses.
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: And Spanberger just rejoined Reggie, which is a statewide cap
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: and trade carbon credit agency. climate change agenda. Dominion Energy
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: even said, by rejoining Reggie, Spanberger has caused everyone's heating
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: and cooling prices to go up. Now, we cannot let
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: China beat us with AI. We can't do it. I
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: know we need data centers, but I'm against them if
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: the community doesn't want them. I'm against data centers if
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: they negatively impact the water table because we've got to
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: take care of our farmers and our hardworking Americans. And
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: I'm against them if we have to pay for the
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: infrastructure or if we have to pay for the energy.
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: You probably remember I'm the only one who wrote a
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: letter to Spanberger telling her to toss or end the
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: Valley Link project. That's very bad for rural farmers. If
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: they want these data centers, they need to bring the
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: energy where they need it with small module reactors or
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: move them someplace that doesn't impact the water table or
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: cause the ratepayers to have to pay for it.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's fair.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, and so the Ratepayer Protection Act, and
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: talk about what it does regarding making sure that all
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: those steps take place, John. And will it get bipartisan support? Well,
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: I think it will.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: I mean, I certainly listen to the rhetoric on both sides.
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: And I just don't think it's fair that the ratepayers
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: should have their energy go up. We can win the
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: AI race without you having to pay for it. And
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: so it basically says that the people that are building
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: these data centers have to pay for all the infrastructure themselves,
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: not you. It should have an unfair tax on you
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: to develop this. And they should not negatively impact your
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: electric bill with regard they should pay for their own energy.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: You know, President Trump passed or signed an executive order
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: allowing for the development of these power plants attached to
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: these data centers. I think that that's a big step
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: towards not just for the data centers, but for the
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: communities around them, because, you know, these places could become
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: the generator of electricity, even though we have things like
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: the One Virginia 2030 where we signed the suicide pact
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: with California for the Clean Virginia Act that drove out
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: all these power plants. Maybe we can start building some
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: new ones or at least reopening the old ones, John.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: Well, we need to do that.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: And by the way, I'm going to repeat it.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: Data centers should pay their own way, not hardworking families.
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: So that's what this bill will do.
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: And it goes hand in hand with President Trump's executive order.
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: But Secretary of Interior Doug Burgum and I have developed
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: a friendship. And he said, John, today in the United States,
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: 70% of our energy comes from fossil fuels. 30% comes
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: from nuclear. And then we paused. And then he said,
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: how much does that leave you for wind and solar?
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: Zero.
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah. So, I mean, if you like solar panels, I
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: love you. And if you don't like solar panels, I
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: love you. But the hardworking Americans shouldn't have to pay
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: for it. And so we did get rid of the
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: subsidies for wind and solar in the One Big Beautiful Bill.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: So what is your hope? And I just got a
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: text message from a listener asking, you know, that's all
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: well and good. But what about the SAVE Act? I
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: know the SAVE Act is still getting a lot of
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: run in conservative media circles. Is it a done issue?
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: It seems like the president is back in court asking
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: the Supreme Court to at least give them a chance
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: to make sure the U.S. Postal Service isn't engaging in
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: mail fraud by sending out ballots to people that don't exist.
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that, you know, President Trump, he's placed
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: 3D chess. He's very smart. But I think your listener
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: is right. Every vote matters. Now, Joe, you probably remember
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: when I came into the politics in the House of
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: Delegates in 2017, we had a blue wave. And David Yancey,
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: if you remember, won his seat by one vote. And
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: that gave us a one vote majority in the House
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: of Delegates, which caused us to stop a Every vote matters.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: And as I travel around the district, every time I
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: hear somebody say my vote doesn't matter, I tell them
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: that story. Every vote matters and we need everybody to
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: show up. I lost count of how many times I
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: voted yes for the Save America Act.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Only U.S.
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: Citizens should vote in U.S.
• 19:20
  Speaker 6: Elections.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: And I think Democrats, Republicans and independents agree with that.
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: But Democrat leaders, yes. We're running out of time here, John.
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: I appreciate it. My friend, mcguire.house.gov. Have a good time
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: at the RNC convention.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: God bless you. Bye-bye. 434-882-4217 is our phone number. I'll
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: take a moment here. We're going to do a whole piece.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: My next piece for dailysignal.com is this ratepayer protection act.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: And again, and this is where I get in so
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: much trouble because, you know, I want to make sure
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: that there are tools available for when people behave badly.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: That is how American jurisprudence is supposed to work. You
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: You write the laws that say here are the punishments
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: when you violate someone's rights. You can't stop somebody from
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: violating your rights. But when you look at what's happening
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: with these data centers, you have to start with understanding
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: that most of the anti-data center narrative has been funded
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: by the CHICOMs trying to divide us on things. And
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: they're brilliant about it because you've got the privacy sector
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: and the Green New Deal sector working together. I mean,
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: you found a way to cripple America and to make
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: the Internet a CHICOM operation. And you've made it a
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: bipartisan agenda item because you've got, like I said, the
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: folks who believe in the Fourth Amendment and the Third
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: Amendment rallying at the behest of these Twitter and X accounts.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: And I've even seen some reports that say they've been
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: getting on to Truth Social, buying Truth Social accounts, and
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: then forget about TikTok. all promoting the idea of being
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: anti-data centers so that the data centers will all become
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: CHICOM operations. And I said the beginning, middle, and end
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: begins with, I want the data centers here where we
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: have the Fourth Amendment. Because if we're going to have
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: any chance to battle for privacy in the Internet with
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: our data and all of that, It's only going to
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: be if the data centers are based here in the
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: United States. So anyway, DailySignal.com.
• 22:01
  Speaker 18: Let's see if something costs less, but people are happier
• 22:05
  Speaker 18: with it. That sounds like something to look into. And
• 22:07
  Speaker 18: that is MediShare. Maybe you've heard switching to MediShare to
• 22:10
  Speaker 18: pay for health care can save many families up to
• 22:13
  Speaker 18: 500 bucks a month. And that is huge. But it's
• 22:15
  Speaker 18: also true that people are way more satisfied after making
• 22:18
  Speaker 18: the switch to the member satisfaction rate for MediShare is
• 22:22
  Speaker 18: double that of the typical health insurance plan.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: Double.
• 22:25
  Speaker 18: MediShare works too. It's been around for 30 years. Members
• 22:28
  Speaker 18: have shared more than $ 5 billion of each other's bills.
• 22:32
  Speaker 18: People love having telehealth and a huge nationwide PPO network.
• 22:35
  Speaker 18: So yeah, really, you can save a ton and like
• 22:37
  Speaker 18: it better. Imagine being happy with how you're taking care
• 22:40
  Speaker 18: of your healthcare.
• 22:41

  Speaker 9: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
• 24:07
  Speaker 9: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
• 24:12
  Speaker 9: I'm Dr.
• 24:13
  Speaker 6: Mitch.
• 24:14
  Speaker 9: Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems
• 24:19
  Speaker 9: to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program. It
• 24:24
  Speaker 9: makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation is
• 24:28
  Speaker 9: a key component to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic
• 24:32
  Speaker 9: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties,
• 24:39
  Speaker 9: and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer, or at
• 24:43
  Speaker 9: least slow the spread of cancer, and in many instances
• 24:47
  Speaker 9: make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy cells even
• 24:52

• 25:17
  Speaker 10: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
• 25:21
  Speaker 10: are not from us. Real Social Security employees will never

  Speaker 10: or send money in any form, cash, gift cards, wire transfers,
• 25:43
  Speaker 10: or prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our law

  Speaker 12: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah?
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
• 26:00
  Speaker 8: And now a speech.
• 26:02
  Speaker 14: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: Heart and brain.
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: Who's with me?
• 26:08
  Speaker 12: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed. And my
• 26:11
  Speaker 12: brain is saying, when it's time to go home, somebody
• 26:14
  Speaker 12: call me a ride. Love that guy.
• 26:16
  Speaker 14: Me too.
• 26:17
  Speaker 15: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
• 26:19
  Speaker 15: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
• 26:23
  Speaker 16: Did you know that more than half our household energy
• 26:26
  Speaker 16: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
• 26:30
  Speaker 16: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills too.
• 26:34
  Speaker 16: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
• 26:37
  Speaker 16: energy assessment. Your utility company can help. Or you can
• 26:41
  Speaker 16: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
• 26:46
  Speaker 16: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
• 26:49
  Speaker 16: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
• 26:53
  Speaker 16: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
• 26:55
  Speaker 16: new appliance. Look for the ENERGY STAR logo and read
• 26:59
  Speaker 16: the ENERGY GUIDE label. And there are day-to-day things you
• 27:02
  Speaker 16: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
• 27:05
  Speaker 16: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.
• 27:09
  Speaker 16: And keep air filters clean. For more tips on saving

• 28:12
  Speaker 1: This is Independence from Virginia, again, first thing today, by
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 28:19
  Speaker 9: Come along if you dare.
• 28:22
  Speaker 20: Come along if you dare.
• 28:25
  Speaker 8: Take a ride to the land.
• 28:30
  Speaker 15: Inside and you'll see.
• 28:31
  Speaker 18: How happy life can be.
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: On this Teds Day morning, and again, controversial, because nobody
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: wants to be trapped. And I was listening to a fellow...
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: On Saturday morning, talking about social media, they had created
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: this content creation thing all built around, I think it
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: was sports, was built around the name, image, likeness stuff.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: And they're like, oh, well, we're creating all these curated
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: opportunities for these student athletes to create content. And I
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: dug through it and they were making student athletes do
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: 10 or 15 minute YouTube videos or TikTok videos for
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: a couple of minutes. And then you were slapping a
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: sponsor on it like we were talking about Annie Agar
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: and Twisted Tea. And you're like, well, that's, you know,
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: that means my data is being used and then they
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: know I like whatever. And I realized listening to this
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: guy that he's, he hasn't invented something new. They've just
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: rebranded everything that we've been doing in radio since 1930.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: There's a reason those daytime dramas are called soap operas,
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: because they used to be sponsored by washing powder, because
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: the people who were listening during the middle of the
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: day are generally the ones who do laundry. So they
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: were sponsored by washing powder. People who like to hear
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: news on their radio are generally politically conservative. So as
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: talk radio grew, the conservative hosts became the ones with
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: the highest ratings and the most listener reaction, and therefore advertising.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: We sell advertising. We sell spots on the air. You've
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: heard Dr. Mitch or the Christian Ministry Health Insurance Company
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: or JCS Gold. It's because I think that these things
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: might help you. They're not designed to screw you over.
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: But somewhere, somebody sat down and said, this is generally
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: the profile of who tunes into First Thing Today by
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: Joe Thomas. And I know it's not as specific as
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: Google ads will slice it down and say, well, this
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: guy is 60, and he goes to these sites. So
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: if you like, and they target you, But sometimes it's,
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: you know, I search discount electronics. I get all of
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: my computers, my company computers from discount electronics. Hey, will
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: they knock something off? I know we're getting it really cheap. Anyway,
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: got to buy some computers. And so I looked up
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: their website and now every other ad was, if I
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: open an app on my phone, is for discount electronics.
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: I'm like, guys, this is wasting your time. I've already
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: bought something from discount electronics. So don't think that these
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: data centers and all this stuff is this insidious. They
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: get it wrong plenty of times, too. They'll send you
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: ads to something you already have tickets for. Hey, you've
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: gone to see this rock concert every December. Let us
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: send you ads saying that, is today the day? Is
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: today the day the, I can say Trans-Siberian Orchestra today?
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: Coming up when we get back from Shanksville, we will
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: begin a campaign to help you, where you are listening
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: to us, get tickets to see Trans-Siberian Orchestra in your town.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: The neat thing is they're coming to my town too.
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: They're coming to Charlottesville, Virginia, but they're going to a
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: lot of places where This program is heard like Youngstown,
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: Ohio and places that if you're a TSO fan club member,
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: you already know about because the shows got announced today.
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: We'll be giving away those tickets. But if you went
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: to go see them and then you're getting ads for them,
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: why are you sending me ads for something I've already purchased?
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: So I think a lot of this fear about data
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: marketing is But if a business is trying to reach
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: you with a product you might want, why wouldn't they
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: try to find the most efficient way to do that?
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: I don't have a problem with that. And you're the
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: one who went on the internet. And did you pay
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: for the internet? I mean, I know you paid probably
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: for your internet service. But somebody has sat inside that
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: website of yours, you're processing and creating information and such
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: and They got to eat too. The trouble with the
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: internet is we too long took it for granted that
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: it was just generally there for free. Very much like,
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: you know, radio. But radio, we're honest enough to tell you,
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: the internet is still young, so it's still too cute
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: by half. But I want data centers in the United
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: States to so that they're beholden to the Fourth Amendment.
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: You see what I mean? I don't have an issue with,
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to make cameras, video cameras disappear. So
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: how do you manage them constitutionally? What is the right
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: process to make sure that you're protected and your privacy
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: is protected? And that's one of the problems that the
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: American left has had is they pretend that your privacy
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: is something they give you. You've earned your privacy like
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: it's some black mirror TV show. Well, you've only earned
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: so many privacy points this week, so this officer of
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: the government is going to sit in your bedroom. And
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: I know that It is a difficult thing because I
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: don't love a data center, but I don't love an
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: Amazon fulfillment center either. And I'm getting one up the
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: block from me. And I'm watching the club-footed idiots that
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: run the government in my community completely mismanage it because
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: they have written laws that are stupid. That's a political word,
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: meaning stupid. Because If Amazon wants to build a fulfillment
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: center on a two-lane highway, they should have to pay
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: for the widening of the road and the infrastructure around it.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: I don't have a problem with that. Virginia does. Our
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: flagship state acts like, oh, well, the people will do
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: that for you. Isn't it great? We have such a
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: battered wives economic policy. Because we tax our businesses pretty harshly.
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: So we act like the only reason somebody could want
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: to come to Virginia is if we give you free stuff.
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: We buy you some diamond rings and you'll forget about
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: the abuse you've taken for a year. I don't have
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: a problem at all because Pennsylvania does this. Pennsylvania, if
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: Toll Brothers wants to build a housing... development in Pennsylvania.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: They're the ones who, on PDOT's specifications, will have to
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: build the roads, widen the roads, put in the traffic circles,
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: put in the traffic lights, pay for all that. Then
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation takes it over. But they've
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: got to make the site upgrades for the thing they're
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: going to build. I don't have a problem with that.
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: People are like, oh, that's not fair. That's government infrastructure.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: It's infrastructure that you need to do in order to
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: have the housing development built. So if you want to
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: build the housing development, build the road widening lanes. So
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: we have to get these things right. And that's what
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: I think the Ratepayer Protection Act is a good step
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: in that direction because it takes the correct approach of
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: here are the things that will happen when A, B, C,
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: and D don't happen, when you're not protected for your privacy,
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: when the water systems are being tapped into and all
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: these things that can corrupt a system.

  Speaker 12: In 2024, the American Heart Association celebrates 100 years of
• 38:05
  Speaker 12: life-saving service as the world's leading non-profit organization focused on
• 38:09
  Speaker 12: heart and brain health. Heart disease still kills more people
• 38:13
  Speaker 12: in the United States each year than all types of
• 38:15
  Speaker 12: cancer combined, but more than half of Americans are unaware
• 38:18
  Speaker 12: of this fact, according to a recent Harris Poll survey
• 38:21
  Speaker 12: conducted for the American Heart Association. However, the majority of
• 38:25
  Speaker 12: heart disease is preventable. New research has improved the prevention, diagnosis,
• 38:30
  Speaker 12: and treatment of heart disease and its risk factors. Efforts
• 38:33
  Speaker 12: led by the American Heart Association have reduced deaths from
• 38:36
  Speaker 12: heart disease by half over the past century and helped
• 38:39
  Speaker 12: people with heart disease live longer and more productive lives
• 38:42

  Speaker 14: You were strolling along in goodwill when just past that
• 40:05
  Speaker 14: mid-century side table and denim jacket you spotted them nestled
• 40:09
  Speaker 14: in their display case. Miniature donut earrings.

  Speaker 8: Exercise is hard. So is maintaining a healthy diet. Of course,
• 41:03
  Speaker 8: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type 2 diabetes,
• 41:08
  Speaker 8: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
• 41:12
  Speaker 8: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
• 41:15
  Speaker 8: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
• 41:21
  Speaker 8: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type 2
• 41:24
  Speaker 8: diabetes and heart disease. And if your doctor recommends lifestyle
• 41:28
  Speaker 8: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
• 41:32
  Speaker 8: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
• 41:36

  Speaker 1: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: Thank you for letting us be of service to you
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: this morning.
• 44:24
  Speaker 6: 434-882-4217.
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: Let me finish a point here on this. Just leave
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: the lights on. Before we get headed off towards Shanksville tomorrow,
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: because I got this text message, but Joe, what about
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: the Patriot Act? Here we are 25 years later, and
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: it's being used against American citizens, CJ6. Yeah, and it's
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: bad legislation. It was bad legislation in 2002 when I
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: said so. And I can't get anyone with enough intestinal
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: fortitude to undo it. because it basically states that you're
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: allowed to be targeted if we feel like you're doing
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: something un-American or of peril to Americans. It's supposed to
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: restrict that to interactions with foreign agents, but they've just
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: kind of expanded and twisted it and reinterpreted it until
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: it means pretty much anything they want it to mean.
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: And yes, that needs to be fixed, but that's not
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: the data center's fault. That's your legislator's fault. The same thing,
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: just the AI is programmed by a person or even
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: a team of persons. We cannot get caught up in
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: blaming the inanimate, or otherwise I have no defense for
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: firearms anymore. Because if your data center is the reason
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: you're being surveilled, then the gun is the reason you
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: got shot at. It's not, it's no longer a human's responsibility.
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: And then we're no better than the leftists. That's my
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: view on it. You tell me. Good morning. You're on
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: the air with Joe. Who's this?
• 46:14
  Speaker 6: Hey, Joe.
• 46:14
  Speaker 3: Good morning. It's Joel.
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: Hey, Joel. So what do you think? Am I wrong?
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: You know, or should some inanimate objects be blamed for,
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: you know, the things they're used for and not others?
• 46:26
  Speaker 22: No, I, that's a causation thing. And I, it's just,
• 46:31
  Speaker 22: it's just not what you're saying is dumb, but when
• 46:34
  Speaker 22: people present that argument that something that can't move unless
• 46:39
  Speaker 22: it's moved by a person or an animal or wind
• 46:42
  Speaker 22: or outside forces, then, then it becomes maybe a possible problem. But,
• 46:47
  Speaker 22: but I wanted to bring up real quick is all
• 46:50
  Speaker 22: these people that are complaining. I wanted to use the
• 46:54
  Speaker 22: B word complaining about, about, uh, the data centers and
• 47:01
  Speaker 22: stuff being built. What about these people that had precious
• 47:04
  Speaker 22: farmland taken up by solar panels that are so toxic
• 47:08
  Speaker 22: they don't know what to do with them or windmills
• 47:11
  Speaker 22: that are killing whales and sea life and birds off
• 47:15
  Speaker 22: the coast of Virginia and then what do they do
• 47:17
  Speaker 22: with them? And they're all made in China.
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: What do we do with that?
• 47:21
  Speaker 22: These same blue-haired idiots and rhinos walking around and then
• 47:26
  Speaker 22: they don't want beef in their they don't want beef, but,
• 47:29
  Speaker 22: but they'll eat, you know, they'll eat all this other stuff.
• 47:32
  Speaker 22: It's the impossible burgers and all that other stuff.
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, you're talking about the extrapolation, the growth of
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: the eco terrorists. These people have been nuts for generations
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: now and, and they keep breeding with one another and
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: it gets worse each generation. The, the, the main issue
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: is whose land is it? So if a farmer is
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: forced out of his farm, by regulation, and so they
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: have no other choice but to sell to a solar
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: farm developer, that's a legislative failure. That's where you've created
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: an inheritance system that basically makes somebody who's inheriting a
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: piece of land pay all the capital gains on it
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: in advance so that the second-generation farmer can And what
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: about these people driving around electric cars where the lithium
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: batteries are so toxic and explosive?
• 48:39
  Speaker 22: That when they have to clear an area, it's a
• 48:41
  Speaker 22: hazmat call. It's not just a regular fire call.
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: No, but that's green, Joel. That's just like, you know,
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: China's a developing economy. Don't you understand? If we say it,
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: it must be true.
• 48:54
  Speaker 22: Yeah, I wonder back when Richard Nixon set all that
• 48:57
  Speaker 22: stuff up, because that was a Republican that did that
• 49:00
  Speaker 22: with China.
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: It's just It was Henry Kissinger. Henry Kissinger is Henry Kissinger. Yeah,
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: he's he's a World Economic Forum, you know, hand puppet
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: as well. He wanted he you know, and maybe he
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: was conceited enough to believe that if the United States
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: took a leadership role in the world, Economic Forum, that
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: we would make it a liberty-based organization. You're getting over
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: your skis there, Henry. And that's the best scenario you
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: can paint for him. Otherwise, he was just a manipulator
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: trying to crash us from within and use Nixon as
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: a pawn.
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: May I say one more thing, too?
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: No, no, absolutely not. Give me five bucks.
• 49:43
  Speaker 22: We talk about federal lands, right? But what does it
• 49:47
  Speaker 22: say on the first part of the Constitution?
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: We the people.
• 49:50
  Speaker 22: So is it the representatives of government that own the
• 49:53
  Speaker 22: federal land? Or is it we the people, we the citizens,
• 49:57
  Speaker 22: the actual citizens that have actual citizenship?
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: I think that's a great point you could make for being,
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: you know, we're all shareholders in this event. But then
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: that would also mean they would have to tell us
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: what they're paying each other and how much money is
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: set aside for payoffs of sexual harassment lawsuits and all
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: those things they like to hide under the blanket of
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: personnel decisions because they don't want to talk about personnel
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: decisions in front of people because then you know how
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: much some staffer makes somewhere down the line there, Joel.
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: Good stuff, my friend. I appreciate it. As always, you
• 50:33
  Speaker 2: have a great morning.
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: You too.
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: Thank you. And we're going to pack the gear up
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: and head out towards Shanksville, Pennsylvania tomorrow. We will be
• 50:43
  Speaker 2: live from the Flight 93 Memorial there, and I hope
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: you can join us. Brought to you by Big Ridge
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: Guns and Archery, BigRidgeGuns.com, and the Heritage Guide to Historic Sites.
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: And I think there's a point to be made, and
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: I'm going to make it this way. We talked about
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: the Supreme Court case about the AR-15s. There were no
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: guns on Flight 93. There were no firearms. There were
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: box cutters. I got a fun fact for you. You
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: know what you can still bring onto an airplane? It's
• 51:24
  Speaker 2: a box cutter. Unless they've tightened up the rules two
• 51:29
  Speaker 2: years ago, you could still bring a box cutter onto
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: an airplane. We still don't chase you down if you
• 51:36
  Speaker 2: overstay your visa. We still don't make visa card holders
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: check in once a week or once every two weeks
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: so that if they do go into the wind, we're
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: on their tail faster. So many things that Mohammed Atta
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: and his boys did on September 11th, 2001, and they
• 51:57
  Speaker 2: were planning, they were getting in position. The one thing
• 52:02
  Speaker 2: we did do is tighten up those smaller regional airports like,
• 52:05
  Speaker 2: was it Bangor, Maine, that it came out of? That
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: they flew into Logan after going through, quote, airport security
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: in a small regional airport. That's gotten a lot better
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: under the Patriot Act. But no guns. No guns for
• 52:20
  Speaker 2: all the people who want to restrict firearms. No guns.
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: It's like that song from Hail Caesar. No dames. It's
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: time for us.
• 52:42
  Speaker 20: To go.
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: Until tomorrow morning from Flight 93 Memorial, so long and
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: thanks for all the fish.
• 52:51
  Speaker 12: Much of neck and spinal pain is caused by the
• 52:53
  Speaker 12: compression of spinal nerves. According to Dr. Jeff Fisher, an Irvine,
• 52:57
  Speaker 12: California-based chiropractor with more than 30 years of experience, this
• 53:01
  Speaker 12: compression can stem from a chronic condition, acute injury, or
• 53:05
  Speaker 12: simply aging. Traction is the most effective way to relax, stretch,
• 53:09
  Speaker 12: and decompress the spine and surrounding muscles and ligaments of
• 53:12
  Speaker 12: the neck and back, Dr. Fisher explains. His inventions, the
• 53:16
  Speaker 12: Fisher Traction Neck Device and Fisher Traction Low Back Device,
• 53:20
  Speaker 12: safely separates bones to eliminate pain and restore function so
• 53:24
  Speaker 12: the body can heal naturally. The Fisher Traction Devices are
• 53:27
  Speaker 12: designed to restore the natural curves of the neck and
• 53:30
  Speaker 12: back and gently induce hydration and motion into the spine
• 53:33
