0:36
Speaker 6: Joe Friday Morning Hill Larity, Joe, what I.
0:45
Speaker 1: Take I never met Jeffrey Epstein, never had any uh
0:53
Speaker 1: connection or communication.
0:54
Speaker 6: With him I knew, which means that the shredding machine
0:57
Speaker 6: has made sure that that has ended now. My husband
1:02
Speaker 6: flew down there all the time, I had no connection
1:05
Speaker 6: with him, Which could be a real looking class into
1:10
Speaker 6: the partnership of Bill and Hillary Clinton and her life
1:21
Speaker 6: in the shadows of Bill the glad handing and I
1:27
Speaker 6: say that intentionally populist, she the serious pro litigator who
1:39
Speaker 6: wrote all or was it at least part of the
1:43
Speaker 6: team that wrote most of the Freedom of Information Act
1:47
Speaker 6: laws for the country, and then proceeded to be a
1:52
Speaker 6: master class in how to avoid the scrutiny that they
1:55
Speaker 6: were supposed to give you quick email, I thought this
1:58
Speaker 6: was a great to email. What I learned today is
2:03
Speaker 6: the title of the email, Teresa writes in what I
2:07
Speaker 6: learned today A what a cuckold is b that strip
2:13
Speaker 6: clubs have menus things I didn't expect to come out
2:18
Speaker 6: of talk radio in the morning, but I appreciate it.
2:23
Speaker 6: She's referring to a statement I made, and there's three
2:26
Speaker 6: or four other text messages about spit takes and things
2:29
Speaker 6: like that, you know, little JPEGs of spit takes, what
2:33
Speaker 6: they call them gifts of spit takes. After we referred
2:39
Speaker 6: to America's indebtedness as turning us into an international cuckold,
2:46
Speaker 6: incapable of defending the planet that we're supposed to be
2:49
Speaker 6: taken care of. And I appreciate the three or four
2:53
Speaker 6: folks who caught that it was right at the end
2:55
Speaker 6: of a segment and sent emails about spit takes and
2:59
Speaker 6: things of that nature that I brought on in the
3:03
Speaker 6: course of their morning travels. Again, apologies if it soiled
3:08
Speaker 6: any parts of your vehicle, but no, we do not
3:11
Speaker 6: have any car wash trade that we could share with you.
3:15
Speaker 6: I'm sorry you're going to have to kind of wash
3:17
Speaker 6: it on your own this morning. But so much more
3:20
Speaker 6: to get into. Our friend Steve Campbell coming up and
3:26
Speaker 6: Bob Good on the line with us here as well.
3:30
Speaker 6: But first we must tell you our first things this morning,
3:34
Speaker 6: and the stories of course Hillary. The first up in
3:38
Speaker 6: the investigation, the testimony before the House Committee about Jeffrey
3:43
Speaker 6: Epstein and Gallaine Maxwell's crimes. Two days of depositions. Former
3:48
Speaker 6: President Bill Clinton is supposed to testify to the committee tomorrow.
3:53
Speaker 6: It was paused when a photograph of the former or
4:00
Speaker 6: Secretary of State was posted to social media by Colorado
4:05
Speaker 6: Congressmoman Lauren Bobert.
4:07
Speaker 1: Dlayne Maxwell casually as an acquaintance. But whatever they asked me,
4:13
Speaker 1: I did my very best to respond.
4:16
Speaker 6: Did my very best to respond. Interesting juxtaposition in Minnesota
4:24
Speaker 6: and Virginia, as the chief federal Judge for Minnesota has
4:28
Speaker 6: said to the Chief Federal Prosecutor, a Trump appointee, and
4:32
Speaker 6: the Immigrations and custom enforcement officials also working for President Trump,
4:38
Speaker 6: warning them that they must comply with court orders or
4:41
Speaker 6: they risk criminal contempt charges. Meanwhile, in Virginia, the Attorney
4:46
Speaker 6: General j Jones has told election officials that restraining orders
4:54
Speaker 6: that were issued to stop voting and to keep the
4:58
Speaker 6: state Board of Elections from conducting elections regarding redistricting until
5:02
Speaker 6: the judge can rule on it can be ignored without
5:06
Speaker 6: any fear of recompense. Pakistan says it's at open war
5:11
Speaker 6: with Afghanistan after shooting ordnance into Afghanistan, then Pakistan's defenseman
5:18
Speaker 6: stirred declared war after Afghanistan fired back. There are stories
5:23
Speaker 6: circulating that they struck a nuclear power plant in Pakistan.
5:30
Speaker 6: Defence Minister Kawajah Muhammad Asif said that overnight Pakistan struck
5:38
Speaker 6: back against the Taliban regime in Kabul. American sympathies towards
5:45
Speaker 6: the Middle East have flipped after three years of press
5:48
Speaker 6: coverage saying that Hamas was a marginalized community. It should
5:53
Speaker 6: not be surprising that a Gallop poll three years ago
5:56
Speaker 6: said fifty four percent of Americans sympathized more with Israel
6:00
Speaker 6: than Hamas. Now it's forty one percent to the other side.
6:05
Speaker 6: European Union is set aside one hundred and forty seven
6:08
Speaker 6: billion euro to pay for abortions for anyone who lives
6:13
Speaker 6: within the twenty seven country governing block. And Iran and
6:20
Speaker 6: the United States finished their indirect negotiations Thursday over their
6:25
Speaker 6: nuclear program, but came to no conclusions In Geneva. First
6:31
Speaker 6: thing today on the road next month will be in Dallas,
6:35
Speaker 6: Texas for Seapack Sponsorships available. Seapack will bring you all
6:41

6:53
Speaker 6: the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of America on July fourth,
6:56
Speaker 6: and then we're off to Freedom Fest in Las Vegas.
6:59
Speaker 7: Freedom Fest do let's see if something costs less a
7:03
Speaker 7: lot less, but people are actually happier with it. That
7:07
Speaker 7: sounds like something to look into, and that's Meta Share.
7:10
Speaker 7: Maybe you've heard joining metashare can save you or your
7:12
Speaker 7: family up to five hundred bucks a month, and that's huge,
7:15
Speaker 7: but it's also true.
7:17
Speaker 8: People are just happier with it.
7:18
Speaker 7: They love being part of something that reflects and promotes
7:21
Speaker 7: their values and what they believe in. Meda Share works too.
7:24
Speaker 7: It's been around for thirty years now and members have
7:27
Speaker 7: shared more than seven billion dollars of each other's bills.
7:31
Speaker 7: People love having telehealth and a huge nationwide PPO network.

7:52
Speaker 8: It's eight five five share forty eight five five share
7:57
Speaker 8: forty eight five five share.
7:59
Speaker 9: Forty Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the
8:07
Speaker 9: few bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market.
8:13
Speaker 9: I am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation,
8:18
Speaker 9: our optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to
8:22
Speaker 9: any nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing
8:26
Speaker 9: or reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
8:32
Speaker 9: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
8:37
Speaker 9: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
8:42
Speaker 9: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
8:46
Speaker 9: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
8:51
Speaker 9: healthy cells even from radiation. Totalwellness dot com where we

9:59
Speaker 11: Hiverybody, I'm Jack. It's always a boy. Growing up on
10:01
Speaker 11: a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals. I'm
10:04
Speaker 11: not only in awe of their beauty and kindness, but
10:06
Speaker 11: also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the birds
10:09

10:30
Speaker 11: but because of their acute senses, they also perform life
10:33
Speaker 11: saving work every day.
10:34
Speaker 3: Dogs keep us safe at airports.
10:36
Speaker 11: They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTSS.
10:39
Speaker 11: They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change.
10:42
Speaker 3: In their blood chemistry.
10:43
Speaker 11: Working dogs have a variety of highly trained roles that
10:45
Speaker 11: contribute to society and help those in need. So please

13:00
Speaker 2: H first thing today by Joe Thomas on the Tunk
13:20
Speaker 2: Media Network all natural and free of artificial intelligence.
13:34
Speaker 6: So the question.
13:40
Speaker 4: What's on your mind?
13:41
Speaker 6: I finally pushed the button enop got a reaction on
13:47
Speaker 6: our rage against the machine, the idea that somehow capitalism
13:55
Speaker 6: fixes all and and it's dangerous. It's a it's a
13:59
Speaker 6: difficult argument to make, just like Bob and I were
14:05
Speaker 6: talking about earlier. Bob will be back in a little
14:07
Speaker 6: bit after the news at half that it's a difficult
14:12
Speaker 6: argument because it has been so long removed. You think
14:17
Speaker 6: about the last time we could discuss a free market.
14:26
Speaker 6: I doubt many of you or I were even adults
14:30
Speaker 6: at the point, because this began so soon after the
14:35
Speaker 6: Civil War, and it became that way because of the
14:40
Speaker 6: racists that were still in America's government. These were the
14:45
Speaker 6: racists that passed the Permanent Reapportionment Act. These were the
14:49
Speaker 6: racists that passed the Federal Reserve system in nineteen thirteen.
14:54
Speaker 6: These were the racists that wanted central control over the
14:58
Speaker 6: economy through the Commerce Clause. And why do I call
15:01
Speaker 6: them racists? While I'm aside from the fact that it
15:03
Speaker 6: was just after the Civil War, and much like the
15:09
Speaker 6: Jeffrey Epstein people, people who are connected, you keep quiet
15:12
Speaker 6: about it. You keep your white sheets folded in your
15:16
Speaker 6: linen closet underneath your pillow cases, because nobody is inviting
15:22
Speaker 6: you to cocktail parties post Civil War. Oh, President Johnson's
15:28
Speaker 6: on your side, just like Lyndon Johnson anyway. And I'm
15:31
Speaker 6: telling you tongue firmly in cheek. If somebody runs for
15:35
Speaker 6: a president named Johnson, if you're in the black community,
15:39
Speaker 6: you better vote against him, because America's history is full
15:43
Speaker 6: of president's named Johnson who screw over the black community.
15:47
Speaker 6: But even Andrew Johnson's efforts, even all the attempts to
15:51
Speaker 6: begin to create this centralized federal economy as well as
15:57
Speaker 6: government places like Oklahoma, why was Oklahoma, where the Black
16:03
Speaker 6: Wall Street had grown because it was outside that purview.
16:08
Speaker 6: It was it was still a free market, and the
16:12
Speaker 6: blacks that lived there, the freed slaves that lived there,
16:17
Speaker 6: created their own economy and they were becoming wildly wealthy,
16:24
Speaker 6: and they had to stop it. Thus, the riots, in
16:28
Speaker 6: the burning down of Black Wall Street, the creations of
16:33
Speaker 6: the centralized banking system, all of this was to respond
16:40
Speaker 6: to the quote unquote danger of the freed slaves. I mean,
16:49
Speaker 6: let's not even begin with the they're going to marry
16:51
Speaker 6: our daughters stuff. I mean the real I mean, this
16:56
Speaker 6: isn't the patty cake Ibram Kendy, the anti racist stuff.
17:02
Speaker 6: Oh I found out he's coming back to our flagship city.
17:07
Speaker 6: Luckily we'll be at Seapack when the Festival of the
17:10
Speaker 6: Book is going out. He's got a new book out.
17:12
Speaker 6: I don't even want. I still I'm proud of what
17:16
Speaker 6: I managed to do in a TV throwdown with Ibram
17:20
Speaker 6: Kendy one, you know, half hour's worth of time. Not
17:25
Speaker 6: accepting it, but that's our bona fides. We don't accept
17:30
Speaker 6: this premise. So when I say free market capitalism will
17:33
Speaker 6: fix and regulate college athletics, I mean it when free
17:40
Speaker 6: market capitalism will fix the debt and our social security
17:43
Speaker 6: issues and all of those things. I mean it, it's
17:47
Speaker 6: hard to conceptualize because so many of us have been
17:50
Speaker 6: gaslighted into the idea that the government really should be
17:54
Speaker 6: in control of these things. What's to stop somebody from profiting?
18:01
Speaker 6: Don't participate in their profiting. If somebody makes money, why
18:08
Speaker 6: is it any business of yours? If some of it
18:11
Speaker 6: is money you've contributed to him. You had the choice
18:15
Speaker 6: if you bought things from somebody and they made money
18:18
Speaker 6: out of it, Why are you complaining that somebody became
18:22
Speaker 6: well well off because they've sold something to you. If
18:26
Speaker 6: you think they're charging too much for it, don't buy it.
18:31
Speaker 6: If you don't like the programming of their network, don't
18:34
Speaker 6: watch it. That's the free market. Let the market decide.
18:38
Speaker 6: And as soon as you get guys trying to come
18:41
Speaker 6: in and manage it from the government, you're just making
18:45
Speaker 6: it worse. Even if you're trying to punish the people
18:47
Speaker 6: who would never say anything nice about this program. And
18:50
Speaker 6: I'm not taking up for the joy behars of the
18:54
Speaker 6: view and Anderson Cooper because despite the government's best efforts
18:59
Speaker 6: to fluff them they continue to descend in the ratings,
19:03
Speaker 6: which means no people are watching. Now the issue is
19:07
Speaker 6: under crony capitalism, which is a live action, role playing
19:13
Speaker 6: version of capitalism. They can still profit, they can still
19:16
Speaker 6: make money for their networks. They can still pay to
19:19
Speaker 6: produce their shows because there are people who are funding
19:23
Speaker 6: them who want them to tell their story. This is
19:26
Speaker 6: what we call public relations, not news. But the newscasts
19:32
Speaker 6: come across looking like public relations show. Trust me, did
19:35
Speaker 6: I built a news studio in my basement? It can happen,
19:41
Speaker 6: and it's not that hard to do. If you've ever
19:44
Speaker 6: been on a TV production set. And we haven't even
19:47
Speaker 6: talked about Paramount merging with so who won the Oh
19:53
Speaker 6: I'm sorry, Warner Brothers is merging with Paramount in their
19:59
Speaker 6: merging and is the Federal Communications Commission going to get
20:03
Speaker 6: in there on that. It's just you know, fewer people
20:07
Speaker 6: doing fewer things. And guess what half the Warner Brothers
20:11
Speaker 6: board is going to wind up on Paramounts board. There
20:15
Speaker 6: needs to be some control over that collusion. It's price fixing.
20:23
Speaker 6: Those are things that we have laws on the books
20:25
Speaker 6: already about. Like with most things, we lack the intestical
20:30
Speaker 6: fortitude to do anything about them. But free market capitalism
20:35
Speaker 6: can fix all these problems because it created the most
20:39
Speaker 6: prosperous and inspiring nation on the planet and even allowed
20:44
Speaker 6: us to build up a military might that brought down
20:48
Speaker 6: the worst fascists known to man. But the free market
20:55
Speaker 6: will do it faster than you know, slower than you
20:58
Speaker 6: may like, but faster than you'd expect. Because we sell
21:03
Speaker 6: out to the crony capitalists because we want immediate I
21:07
Speaker 6: want to go to bed tonight knowing some sob it
21:10
Speaker 6: was punished for this, and each time we do that,
21:16
Speaker 6: a little bit of the free market goes away, and
21:18
Speaker 6: then you wake up one morning and there's no jobs.
21:22
Speaker 6: There's no opportunity. Young people are shrugging their shoulders, saying
21:26
Speaker 6: the system sucks because we played games with fire and
21:35
Speaker 6: now we want somebody to come and maybe we should
21:39
Speaker 6: ask some sub Saharan government to bail out our debt.
21:46
Speaker 6: And yet we still want to print money for people.
21:50
Speaker 6: We can't make sure the people who are supposed to
21:53
Speaker 6: be voting or voting. We can't do all these things
21:55
Speaker 6: because cronyism. It's exactly what Epstein's about.
22:01
Speaker 18: Hey guys, I'm Teddy Savage National League training for Planet
22:04
Speaker 18: Fitness and the American Heart Association recommends that we all
22:07
Speaker 18: get at least one hundred and fifty minutes of moderate
22:10
Speaker 18: aerobic activity in a week's time. But here's the thing
22:13
Speaker 18: that one hundred and fifty minutes does not need to
22:16

28:28
Speaker 6: beyond to other matters that idea. What is coming up
28:32
Speaker 6: on the Good for America podcast if you don't mind
28:35
Speaker 6: me asking.
28:36
Speaker 5: We're going to have Eli Crane from Arizona, the great
28:39
Speaker 5: courageous conservative warrior who is a close friend of mine
28:43
Speaker 5: from the House Freedom caucause he's on the Freedom Caucus Board.
28:46
Speaker 5: He's going to be our next guest on the podcast.
28:48
Speaker 5: We're going to look at the State of the Union
28:50
Speaker 5: and talk about just the practice in the history of
28:53
Speaker 5: the state of the Union address, Is it valid anymore?
28:56
Speaker 5: Is it worthwhile?
28:57
Speaker 6: Endeavor?
28:58
Speaker 2: Uh?
28:59
Speaker 5: And we're going to talk about Iran. We're going to
29:01
Speaker 5: talk about tariffs. We're going to talk about a little
29:04
Speaker 5: bit about the Epstein files. And so, like you said,
29:07
Speaker 5: you're always challenge with what don't you talk about because
29:09
Speaker 5: there is so much to talk about.
29:10
Speaker 6: Well, you talk about the state of the Union. The
29:14
Speaker 6: response though, I thought, and I just sent this story
29:18
Speaker 6: to the Daily Signal, so you should be looking for
29:21
Speaker 6: a video on it coming soon. You know, told us
29:25
Speaker 6: a lot about what the mid terms were going to
29:27
Speaker 6: be about. I think Thomas Grumman, Governor Spanberger laid out
29:32
Speaker 6: exactly what the twenty six twenty six mid terms are
29:35
Speaker 6: going to be about. They're gonna they've bringing back of moluments.
29:39
Speaker 6: They're saying Trump is now making himself wealthy through this.
29:43
Speaker 6: We we watched it with Zorhan Mamdani in the White House, like, oh,
29:48
Speaker 6: there's Trump again making himself money. He's gonna make himself
29:51
Speaker 6: wealthy on being a president. And uh, and that's that
29:58
Speaker 6: the President hasn't done anything to bring down the costs
30:01
Speaker 6: of anyone's stuff anymore or to make life more affordable.
30:05
Speaker 6: What was your take, having been through these battles of
30:08
Speaker 6: running for these offices, how would you counteract this message
30:12
Speaker 6: that life has gotten unaffordable because Donald Trump's making himself wealthy.
30:18
Speaker 5: I think President Trump can do a better job of
30:21
Speaker 5: framing the issue. President Trump did not cause the term
30:24
Speaker 5: that he hates the affordability crisis. The Democrats caused that,
30:28
Speaker 5: and he should continue to point out what he inherited
30:30
Speaker 5: and the Democrats caused it, but what he is doing
30:33
Speaker 5: to address it, to fix it that he fixed the economy,
30:36
Speaker 5: did such great work in his first term, and his
30:38
Speaker 5: policies are going to work in the second term. But
30:40
Speaker 5: it doesn't help to deny it and to pretend it
30:42
Speaker 5: doesn't exist. Miguel Spanberger and the Democrats voted for all
30:46
Speaker 5: these policies, the massive spending being the chief offense there
30:50
Speaker 5: that caused the problem with grocery prices, housing prices, interest rates,
30:54
Speaker 5: utilities with their climate policies, and gas prices and so forth.
30:58
Speaker 5: And President Trump is working hard to reap first those
31:01
Speaker 5: and it's beginning to work. I think it's going to work.
31:04
Speaker 5: The one big thing, though, where he and the Republicans
31:07
Speaker 5: are missing it is the debt and the spending, which
31:10
Speaker 5: is nearly double what it was the first time he
31:12
Speaker 5: took office. So the consequences of the debt are much
31:16
Speaker 5: greater than they were that were already experienced, and they
31:19
Speaker 5: were in.
31:19
Speaker 6: His first term.
31:20
Speaker 5: And he didn't talk about the debt at all on
31:22
Speaker 5: the State of the Union. The only mention he really
31:25
Speaker 5: made of spending was, Hey, we're going to protect and
31:28
Speaker 5: you know, continue social Security and Medicare Medicaid status quo,
31:31
Speaker 5: which is seventy percent of the budget. And is driving
31:34
Speaker 5: the deficit primarily, and he should declare a debt emergency
31:39
Speaker 5: and take action accordingly. He should push Congress to do
31:43
Speaker 5: another reconciliation two point zero to cut spending, to ram
31:46
Speaker 5: it through when they don't need, you know, sixty votes
31:49
Speaker 5: in the Senate. That's the lasting legacy that will make
31:52
Speaker 5: an impact on the mid terms. That will stop us
31:54
Speaker 5: from getting to forty trillion in debt or probably you know,
31:58
Speaker 5: forty five to fifty trillion by the end of his term.
32:01
Speaker 5: That's the missing ingredient.
32:02
Speaker 6: Yeah. And you know, every time they try to claw
32:05
Speaker 6: back money to the treasury that the Biden administration handed
32:09
Speaker 6: out like candy, they wind up in court with a
32:12
Speaker 6: judge saying you can't do that. Yes, And so last
32:16
Speaker 6: question for you, Bob, is the Save Act the Save
32:21
Speaker 6: America Act? I guess John Thune said he doesn't have
32:24
Speaker 6: enough support in the Senate to insist on a talking filibuster,
32:30
Speaker 6: and they're just going to do the standard. And how
32:32
Speaker 6: is it you don't have fifty one Republican senators ready
32:37
Speaker 6: to say, hey, if you want a filibuster, stand there
32:40
Speaker 6: and talk for as long as you can, before you know,
32:43
Speaker 6: we have to vote what's going on in the Senate.
32:47
Speaker 5: Well, it sadly again demonstrates that so many short and
32:51
Speaker 5: percent of Republicans are really Democrats, and no Democrats are
32:53
Speaker 5: really Republicans. And hear its own display again in the
32:56
Speaker 5: Senate with a handful of those who don't want to
32:59
Speaker 5: do Republicans, they don't want to do conservative stuff. Whether
33:02
Speaker 5: it's Murkowski and Alaska, whether it's John Curtis in Utah,
33:07
Speaker 5: or whoever it might be that will continue to stand
33:10
Speaker 5: in the way of anything conservative getting done. But the
33:13
Speaker 5: President needs to direct his wrath and his fury against
33:16
Speaker 5: them in the same manner that he does against principal
33:19
Speaker 5: conservatives like Thomas Massey.
33:21
Speaker 6: I appreciate it, Bob again, it's Good for America dot org.
33:26
Speaker 6: That's where you find the Good for America podcast, and
33:29

33:34

33:40
Speaker 6: seven that is the phone number. Emails come into JT
33:44
Speaker 6: in the Morning radio at gmail dot com as well,
33:48
Speaker 6: and come on down and let us know what is
33:53
Speaker 6: what is happening at where you are and how the
33:55
Speaker 6: news of the day is impacting you. But here is
34:03
Speaker 6: the bigger issue with conservatism as a political and you
34:12
Speaker 6: have to have it. Let's circle back to when we
34:14
Speaker 6: had our friends from City elders On with us earlier
34:21
Speaker 6: politics in and of itself, governance, I guess it's a
34:25
Speaker 6: better word. The wielding of power was what the founding
34:31
Speaker 6: of this nation was built against. You. You have to
34:45
Speaker 6: have a government. And this is John Locke at his best.
34:48
Speaker 6: And this is where Tim Kin manages to obfuscate. Yes
34:54
Speaker 6: and yes, I saw Tim Kaine do his annual reading
34:57
Speaker 6: of George Washington's farewell address. My gosh, you want to
35:01
Speaker 6: talk about a filibuster, because George Washington's Farewell addresses pretty long.
35:13
Speaker 6: The issue is not what political party or somebody says
35:22
Speaker 6: they are on the radio or anything like that. It's
35:24
Speaker 6: what the government has in terms of authority, because constitutionally,
35:32
Speaker 6: we were and we became very prosperous through free market capitalism.
35:47
Speaker 6: And the Civil War was in many ways a battle
35:56
Speaker 6: of the authoritarian, centralized government versus the free markets. And
36:02
Speaker 6: there's a free market sidebar to the Civil War that
36:07
Speaker 6: used to be taught in schools, and it was the
36:10
Speaker 6: growth of the sharecroppers. In the pre Civil War South,
36:19
Speaker 6: sharecroppers were popping up younger farmers who didn't have heraldic
36:26
Speaker 6: plantations but started farming and started hiring people to farm.
36:36
Speaker 6: And what was happening is that those farmers were bringing
36:42
Speaker 6: more goods to market for a lower price. You'd say, well,
36:45
Speaker 6: how is that possible. They were paying their farm workers
36:48
Speaker 6: because they were producing more than the slaves who were
36:52
Speaker 6: out in the field, simply because they didn't want to
36:55
Speaker 6: get beaten did and so the crony governments of the
37:02
Speaker 6: South came down on the sharecroppers because they wanted them
37:08
Speaker 6: to stop making the plantation owners look bad. And so
37:16
Speaker 6: this manifestation of centralized government and their ability to help
37:22
Speaker 6: their friends out is as old as the Hills. And
37:25
Speaker 6: the Civil War was, in a lot of ways a
37:28
Speaker 6: battle that opened that door. As horrific, the blood bath
37:34
Speaker 6: that it was, the human toll of lives lost, families,
37:38
Speaker 6: rent asunder. The biggest casualty was free market capitalism and
37:52
Speaker 6: the idea that you could use the cudgel of government
37:55
Speaker 6: to profit for yourself. And that's what we have to
37:59
Speaker 6: get rid of.
38:02
Speaker 9: In a study, it was found that thirty three percent

Speaker 20: No word in the English language is less convincing than probably.
42:52
Speaker 21: Are you sure we should get matching tattoos on our
42:55
Speaker 21: first date? Sure?
42:57
Speaker 3: We'll probably stay together.
42:59
Speaker 20: Probably, it's been twenty three minutes since I ate.
43:03
Speaker 2: I can probably swim.
43:06
Speaker 4: You should wait thirty minutes.
43:08
Speaker 2: Okay, I'll tell me what to do.
43:09
Speaker 4: Can it bar.
43:12

Speaker 2: Probably?
43:24
Speaker 21: Can I get a Mulligan.
43:26
Speaker 6: Ready to go?
43:27
Speaker 19: Hey?
43:27
Speaker 21: Are you sure you're okay to drive?
43:30
Speaker 3: Yeah?
43:30
Speaker 21: I'm pretty sober.
43:32
Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm probably okay.
43:35
Speaker 20: Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking
43:39
Speaker 20: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
43:42
Speaker 20: or a friend. Buzz driving is drunk driving. A message
43:45
Speaker 20: brought to you by NITSA and AD Council.
43:48
Speaker 21: You know the legal drinking age is twenty one. You
43:50
Speaker 21: may also know this law protects teens. Find out more

44:12
Speaker 16: We say to America is being sued of what you
44:14
Speaker 16: said on paper first.
44:16
Speaker 2: Then today on the Tunk Media Network by Joe Thomas.
44:25
Speaker 6: Somewhere I read Somewhere I read that all men are
44:32
Speaker 6: created equal, and they are endowed by their creator with
44:36
Speaker 6: certain unalienable rights. Somewhere I read that among those rights
44:42
Speaker 6: are life, liberty, and property. Somewhere I read that governments
44:48
Speaker 6: are instituted amongst men to secure those rights. It's a
44:55
Speaker 6: simple philosophy that the government's only job is to protect
45:01
Speaker 6: the rights of its citizens, the God given ones. Now,
45:06
Speaker 6: the schism that grows between the American left and the
45:10
Speaker 6: American right is that the left, and that includes Republicans.
45:14
Speaker 6: The Fabians only read they excerpt They do the cliffs
45:22
Speaker 6: Notes version of John Locke, and they focus in on
45:26
Speaker 6: that to secure these rights, governments are instituted amongst men,
45:32
Speaker 6: deriving their just powers from the governed. They focus in
45:36
Speaker 6: on that and say, well, if we don't protect those rights,
45:40
Speaker 6: then we've taken them away. See no, it just means
45:45
Speaker 6: you've failed in your mission. You've failed in the eyes
45:50
Speaker 6: of God, you failed in the eyes of all of humanity.
46:01
Speaker 6: So what we've allowed to happen, especially since the Civil War,
46:07
Speaker 6: is for creative arguments to allow us to look the
46:12
Speaker 6: other way when simple prohibitions on government incursions into our
46:17
Speaker 6: lives are taking place, because we create fanciful ideas on
46:22
Speaker 6: what our rights are. You see what I'm saying. If
46:28
Speaker 6: you believe you have a right to house, well, then
46:31
Speaker 6: I want the SOB who didn't rent me that apartment
46:35
Speaker 6: arrested for violating my rights. You see the slippery slope.
46:40
Speaker 6: In Virginia, a political opportunist named Dan Helmer, who is
46:46
Speaker 6: part of the whole redistricting arrangement curiosity, curiously announced that, oh,
46:55
Speaker 6: now I'm running for Congress. No really, First off, he's
46:59
Speaker 6: done it two times before and failed miserably. But now
47:01
Speaker 6: he's drawn a district to himself. Dan Helmer has written
47:09
Speaker 6: a bill I think it's getting debated today and perhaps
47:12
Speaker 6: voted on on the floor of the Virginia General Assembly.
47:15
Speaker 6: More stuff to talk about on Saturday. That would establish
47:22
Speaker 6: a system by which you could sue a gun seller
47:27
Speaker 6: for selling a gun that winds up hurting you. And
47:31
Speaker 6: if you read the law, if the gun is stolen
47:34
Speaker 6: from the person who is it was sold to and
47:38
Speaker 6: used in a crime to hurt someone, you can still
47:41
Speaker 6: go after the gun seller because I guess the premise
47:44
Speaker 6: is that the gun seller should have known that the
47:47
Speaker 6: purchaser was of such poor stewardship that they would allow
47:52
Speaker 6: their gun to be stolen. Blah blah blah. But it's
47:54
Speaker 6: a gun. Aside from the obvious constitutional issues of the
48:01
Speaker 6: Second Amendment, you have the attempt by Virginia's government, and
48:10
Speaker 6: there were not the only ones. There are states. New
48:13
Speaker 6: York has tried this in New Jersey. This is a
48:18
Speaker 6: shadow ban. This is okay, we won't ban guns, we
48:23
Speaker 6: will just eliminate any place where you can buy them.
48:27
Speaker 6: This is you know who They learned this from the
48:29
Speaker 6: drug lobby. States like Alaska would legalize the possession of marijuana,
48:37
Speaker 6: but not legalize the sale of marijuana, not legalize the
48:42
Speaker 6: sale of any marijuana associated seeds. So you couldn't grow it,
48:47
Speaker 6: you couldn't buy it, but you could have it in
48:50
Speaker 6: your possession. Pat themselves on the back, but they're dumb.
48:55
Speaker 6: Or then I thought so in Virginia they're going to
49:00
Speaker 6: take that and reverse engineer it and say, sure, you
49:03
Speaker 6: can own whatever gun you want. Good luck finding a
49:05
Speaker 6: place to buy it because the businesses will close up.
49:10
Speaker 6: This is what the authoritarian state does is now in
49:14
Speaker 6: this soft core velvet glove fascism. They've taken over the
49:20
Speaker 6: marketplace through planning commissions, and every time we shrug and say, ah, well,
49:28
Speaker 6: you know it truly is that World War two poem.
49:36
Speaker 6: First they came for the trade unionist and I said
49:39
Speaker 6: nothing because I wasn't a trade unionist. First they came
49:44
Speaker 6: and took away the black property owners' rights under urban renewal,
49:48
Speaker 6: and I didn't say anything because I wasn't black. Then
49:51
Speaker 6: when they came for my property rights, no one was
49:54
Speaker 6: left to say anything for me. You see how it works.
50:03
Speaker 6: We have to get back to a place where success
50:07
Speaker 6: is based on what you do and who you do
50:11
Speaker 6: it for and how well you do it, not who
50:14
Speaker 6: you know and who rights the laws to protect you
50:18
Speaker 6: from any competition, because as long as we still allow
50:23
Speaker 6: that kind of stuff, we're always going to be in decline. Always.
50:31
Speaker 6: For all the talk radio shows and all the conservative
50:35
Speaker 6: columnists on sub stack, we're going to point it out,
50:39
Speaker 6: but until people legislate it. And this is where groups
50:42
Speaker 6: like city elders are so important. We need people going
50:46
Speaker 6: into these halls to govern the gates and put us
50:50
Speaker 6: back into a place where we are no longer playing games,
50:53
Speaker 6: and government simply secures our rights, the rights that don't
51:01
Speaker 6: require someone else. As a matter of fact, if you
51:03
Speaker 6: read further into Locke, he says very clearly, if something
51:08
Speaker 6: is portended to be a right, but it requires other
51:11
Speaker 6: people to perform a service for you, it is not
51:14
Speaker 6: a right. God does not grant you dominion over someone else,
51:20
Speaker 6: even if it's simply for the amount of time of
51:23
Speaker 6: a doctor's visit. God does not get dominu give you
51:28
Speaker 6: dominion over other people. There used to be a word
51:33
Speaker 6: for that. It was called with an ass oh yeah, yeah, yeah, slavery,
51:40
Speaker 6: indentured servitude, that kind. So we need to get back
51:44
Speaker 6: to where all the government needs to do is to
51:47
Speaker 6: make sure that if somebody violates your rights. There are
51:51
Speaker 6: laws on the books to sufficiently punish them so that
51:56
Speaker 6: the next person who hears the bad voice in his
51:59
Speaker 6: head said, yeah, he's got nicer stuff. Then you go
52:02
Speaker 6: steal it? They say, hold it. I remember the last
52:06
Speaker 6: guy that stole something, they punished pretty severely, so I'm
52:09
Speaker 6: not going to do it. It's sad that we have
52:12
Speaker 6: to have laws to remind people of that which should
52:18
Speaker 6: already be woven into their moralities. But that's where we
52:22
Speaker 6: are wrapping up for today. We'll get ready for Saturday
52:27
Speaker 6: programs at six am Saturday here in our flagship city
52:31
Speaker 6: out on Long Island up in Lowell, Massachusetts. Wherever you
52:34
Speaker 6: tune in, tell your favorite radio station about our Saturday
52:37
Speaker 6: morning affair, because the programming model is thou shalt not
52:42
Speaker 6: get away with it until then or Monday morning. I
52:45
Speaker 6: am Joe Thomas, so long and thanks for all the fish.
52:51
Speaker 6: My name is Bobby.
52:53
Speaker 3: I'm a veteran and lost my leg to a roadside bomb.
52:56
Speaker 20: My victory was going from a wheelchair to becoming a
52:58
Speaker 20: weightlifting champion.
53:00
Speaker 23: I'm Sam, I'm a veteran.
53:02
Speaker 5: My victory was finding a career I can be proud
53:04
Speaker 5: of and supporting my family.
53:06
Speaker 15: America's veterans are on their most important tour, the tour
53:09
Speaker 15: of their lives.
53:10
Speaker 3: I'm a veteran.
53:12
Speaker 2: My victory was going from homeless to hall.
53:14
Speaker 15: At DAV, we're on a mission to help veterans get
53:18
Speaker 15: the benefits they've earned.
53:19
Speaker 5: I'm a veteran, and my victory was finishing my education.
53:23
Speaker 15: DAV offers veterans of all generations a lifetime of support
53:27
Speaker 15: for victories great and small.
53:29
Speaker 23: My victory was proving that disability is not a limitation.

Speaker 5: My victory was getting my service dog and new best friend.
53:36
Speaker 15: We help more than a million veterans every year as
53:39
Speaker 15: they face and conquer their challenges.
53:41
