"Here We Go Again" (Monday December 15 2025, Hour 1) · First Thing Today with Joe Thomas

0:04
Speaker 1: He leaks up on one of the gunmen and wrestles
0:07
Speaker 1: the fire on the wind.
0:09
Speaker 2: There's the Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Talk
0:12
Speaker 2: media network.
0:13
Speaker 1: Jew Ward said, steal me a step.
0:16
Speaker 2: You have a day at least for work.
0:19
Speaker 1: When the sun comes up, drops appear to scool the world.
0:24
Speaker 3: Joe has everything a dream do all the jersues out
0:27
Speaker 3: and needs.
0:29
Speaker 1: No one that Joe's as smile. He only aids be Joe.
0:37
Speaker 4: Heroism, be Joe running towards danger while all instincts tell
0:46
Speaker 4: you to run away from it. Uh and uh. One
0:52
Speaker 4: must sit there and look at the gentleman who saved
0:56
Speaker 4: countless lives over the weekend in Australia Undy Beach, and
1:02
Speaker 4: put him on the same Mount rushmore of heroes as
1:07
Speaker 4: the several gentlemen who stopped the shooting at the Battleclon
1:13
Speaker 4: in Paris, or the passengers of Flight ninety three, people
1:18
Speaker 4: who put all sacrifice aside and save others by their efforts.
1:27
Speaker 4: See something, do something. These are images, gobsmacking images, images
1:37
Speaker 4: that almost challenge you to try to put into perspective
1:46
Speaker 4: the amount of hatred driven by theological backing of all
1:54
Speaker 4: amazing things that would lead a father and son to
2:01
Speaker 4: just open fire on a gathering of people who were
2:04
Speaker 4: doing nothing more to them than simply celebrating their religion,
2:09
Speaker 4: which was different than the father and sons. We have
2:16
Speaker 4: new information. The Prime Minister just spoke in Australia about
2:21
Speaker 4: plans going forward. Now sadly working from an all too
2:28
Speaker 4: familiar script. Reading from the same choir, notes that we
2:34
Speaker 4: often hear when these kind of things happen, of more
2:41
Speaker 4: gun control and nothing at all after the instances that
2:50
Speaker 4: grip the world of how we grapple with this radicalized attitude.
3:02
Speaker 4: If fans of one rugby team started shooting at the
3:06
Speaker 4: fans of another rugby team, the owners of that rugby
3:12
Speaker 4: team would be called to account to do something about
3:18
Speaker 4: their supporters. I pick rugby because of Australia soccer, NFL football,
3:26
Speaker 4: you name it. If Washington Commanders fans just started shooting
3:31
Speaker 4: up gatherings of New York Giants fans in the parking
3:35
Speaker 4: lot tailgating before a football game, the owners of the
3:39
Speaker 4: Commanders would be immediately in Center Square saying, you need
3:43
Speaker 4: to do something about your supporters. Yet we can't bring
3:50
Speaker 4: ourselves to do the same thing. When radical Islamists take
3:55
Speaker 4: up arms and just start shooting gatherings of Jewish community
4:01
Speaker 4: celebrating one of their high holidays. It's going to go
4:09
Speaker 4: down in history as one of the great problems that
4:13
Speaker 4: we've failed for too long to grapple with because we
4:17
Speaker 4: won't say the quiet part out loud save for you
4:21
Speaker 4: and me. And how much more bloodshed there could there
4:29
Speaker 4: have been had not one brave man said I've got
4:32
Speaker 4: to stop this. This son is in custody. The father
4:35
Speaker 4: is as was once coined the phrase assumed room temperature,
4:40
Speaker 4: along with many of his victims. One wonders what we
4:45
Speaker 4: will know about the son in this father son weekend outing.
4:53
Speaker 4: And we haven't even scratched the surface of what's going
4:56
Speaker 4: on at Brown University. And was Rob Reiner and his
5:03
Speaker 4: wife killed by their child? So many things to unpack
5:09
Speaker 4: this morning. Our first things begin. The Australian Prime Minister
5:15
Speaker 4: Anthony Albanese just moments ago announced that his government will
5:20
Speaker 4: try to strengthen Australia's already stringent gun laws after the
5:25
Speaker 4: alleged Islamist father and son duo killed fifteen and injured
5:29
Speaker 4: forty on Sunday during a Honukah celebration at Bondi Beach
5:34
Speaker 4: and Cindy, he said, quote People's circumstances change. People can
5:40
Speaker 4: be radicalized over a period of time. Licenses should not
5:44
Speaker 4: be held in perpetuity, he told reporters. President Donald Trump
5:51
Speaker 4: said American Jews celebrating Hanukkah should not be worried about
5:55
Speaker 4: their safety following the attack. He said, quote celebrate proudly,
6:00
Speaker 4: proud of who you are. Meanwhile, in Rhode Island, two
6:04
Speaker 4: Brown University students were killed and nine others were wounded
6:07
Speaker 4: in a shooting that took place in the Barris and
6:10
Speaker 4: Holly Engineering Building at four pm on Saturday. During a
6:16
Speaker 4: test session. Authorities released videos showing a man dressed in
6:20
Speaker 4: all black leading the building, he said. Ag Peter Narona said,
6:25
Speaker 4: it's the most useful piece of video they have. If
6:28
Speaker 4: they had showing any video of the face of the assailant,
6:32
Speaker 4: you'd have it, he said. Meanwhile, police now have announced
6:36
Speaker 4: they have released the person of interest that they had
6:39
Speaker 4: held since the day of the shooting, and according to
6:44
Speaker 4: California Fire officials, Rob Reiner and his wife, Michelle Reiner,
6:49
Speaker 4: were found dead in their Brentwood, California home yesterday afternoon.
6:55
Speaker 4: Those are our first things for this Monday morning.
7:01
Speaker 5: You know a lot of times you have to choose
7:03
Speaker 5: between something high quality or something that saves you money.
7:07
Speaker 4: But what if you could get both?
7:08
Speaker 2: Why not?
7:09
Speaker 5: Especially when it comes to healthcare, and that is meta share.
7:12
Speaker 6: You get both.
7:13
Speaker 5: Many families save five hundred bucks a month with meta
7:17
Speaker 5: share and that's huge. But it's also true that people
7:19
Speaker 5: wind up way more satisfied too, and we know this
7:22
Speaker 5: from research of members. There's a lot they like about
7:25
Speaker 5: meta Share, but especially they love being part of something
7:28
Speaker 5: they believe in. And meta share works too.
7:31
Speaker 3: It has for more.
7:31
Speaker 5: Than thirty years. There are hundreds of thousands of members
7:36
Speaker 5: who love having telehealth if they need it. They love
7:38
Speaker 5: the huge Ppo network. You can save a ton and
7:41
Speaker 5: like it better. Imagine being happy with how you're taking
7:44
Speaker 5: care of your health care. So if you're self employed,
7:46
Speaker 5: or you're part of the gig economy, or you just
7:48
Speaker 5: want a plan you're happy with, you can call right
7:51
Speaker 5: now and get a price in two minutes. Here's the number.
7:53
Speaker 5: Call eight five five share forty. That's eight five five
7:56
Speaker 5: share forty eight five five share.
8:04
Speaker 7: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
8:07
Speaker 7: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
8:13
Speaker 7: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
8:18
Speaker 7: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
8:22
Speaker 7: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
8:26
Speaker 7: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
8:31
Speaker 7: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
8:36
Speaker 7: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
8:42
Speaker 7: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
8:46
Speaker 7: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
8:51
Speaker 7: healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com where

9:02
Speaker 8: I'm Andrew Saul, Commission of SOLI Security. I'm here to
9:05
Speaker 8: warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
9:10
Speaker 8: Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you
9:13
Speaker 8: will be arrested if you don't make payments or provide
9:16
Speaker 8: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
9:21
Speaker 8: are not from US. Real Social Security employees will never
9:25
Speaker 8: threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
9:29
Speaker 8: call like this, hang up. Never give the call of
9:33
Speaker 8: your personal information like your Social Security number or bank account,
9:37
Speaker 8: or send money in any form cash, gift cards, wire transfers,
9:42
Speaker 8: or prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our law
9:46
Speaker 8: enforcement on the Office of the Inspector General at OIG
9:51
Speaker 8: dot SSA dot gov. Share this information with your friends
9:56
Speaker 8: and family.
9:58
Speaker 9: Hi, everybody, I'm Jack Hannah. It's always a boy growing
10:01
Speaker 9: up on a farm in Tennessee. I've been fascinated with animals.
10:04
Speaker 9: I'm not only in alle of their beauty and kindness,
10:06
Speaker 9: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
10:08
Speaker 9: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
10:12
Speaker 9: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
10:15
Speaker 9: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
10:17
Speaker 9: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
10:21
Speaker 9: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
10:23
Speaker 9: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
10:25
Speaker 9: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
10:29
Speaker 9: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
10:32
Speaker 9: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
10:35
Speaker 9: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
10:38
Speaker 9: from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
10:41
Speaker 9: a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a
10:44
Speaker 9: variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society and
10:46
Speaker 9: help those in need. So please join me an American
10:49

10:52
Speaker 9: amazing animals on this planet we inhabit together. Go to

11:00
Speaker 10: Bruh, that's buzzed.
11:01
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, he's starting with the woots.
11:05
Speaker 10: And now a speech.
11:06
Speaker 11: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
11:10
Speaker 11: heart and brain.
11:12
Speaker 1: 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.
11:18
Speaker 6: Somebody call me a ride.
11:19
Speaker 13: Love that guy, Me too.
11:21
Speaker 14: Know your buzzed warning signs, call for a ride when
11:23
Speaker 14: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
11:28
Speaker 15: Did you know that more than half our household energy
11:31
Speaker 15: costs go to heating and cooling. Energy efficiency isn't just
11:35
Speaker 15: good for the environment, It means lower utility bills too.
11:39

Speaker 16: As a family member or friend, you may be the
12:32
Speaker 16: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
12:35
Speaker 16: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased

Speaker 1: The challenge.
13:12
Speaker 2: On your to do list putting the radio on is
13:14
Speaker 2: the first thing today.
13:21
Speaker 17: Trail had plots of.
13:25
Speaker 1: I'm a strange lady.
13:27
Speaker 4: She made me nervous me.
13:31
Speaker 2: Maybe I can.
13:33
Speaker 4: Say this Monday morning, like so many others, Mondays, Thursdays,
13:42
Speaker 4: gotsh It doesn't really make a difference when you sit
13:45
Speaker 4: down in this studio and know that part of our
13:51
Speaker 4: responsibility to you is to help make sense of this
13:54
Speaker 4: all and frequently it requires us to say the quiet
14:02
Speaker 4: part out loud. And Australia is a completely different country
14:12
Speaker 4: than the United States by its constitution. You know, there's
14:15
Speaker 4: commonality of language, music and so, but it's not run
14:21
Speaker 4: the same. Ask anyone who spent time in the concentration
14:25
Speaker 4: camps that they set up because of COVID nineteen vaccine requirements.
14:31
Speaker 4: If you didn't take one, you went to the concentration camp.
14:35
Speaker 4: They've since apologized for that, but only after most of
14:41
Speaker 4: those involved lost their elections and those who replaced them said, yeah,
14:44
Speaker 4: that was pretty dumb. But here we go again. Prime
14:49
Speaker 4: Minister now is indicating that your license to own a firearm,
14:55
Speaker 4: which is much different than our concealed carry permits and
15:00
Speaker 4: our requirements varying from state to state, challenged in the
15:04
Speaker 4: US Supreme Court from New York on down through Virginia
15:08
Speaker 4: to Florida, where you know, if you just want to
15:11
Speaker 4: carry it open, go ahead. You can pay a couple
15:14
Speaker 4: hundred bucks for the firearm, put it in the shoulder holster,
15:20
Speaker 4: wear it on your belt. It's all good, and I
15:22
Speaker 4: don't have a problem with that. I'm just pointing out
15:24
Speaker 4: that we have a patchwork quilt of varying state driven
15:30
Speaker 4: firearm restrictions, and Virginia's facing a whole new administration with
15:35
Speaker 4: twenty seven different new gun laws coming into effect or
15:42
Speaker 4: at least coming to the General Assembly to be voted on,
15:46
Speaker 4: including requiring licensure. Just to go into a store to
15:50
Speaker 4: purchase a firearm, you would have to show a license
15:53
Speaker 4: to go into a store that sells firearms. Now, the
15:58
Speaker 4: Prime Minister of Australia is indicating that he's going to
16:02
Speaker 4: ask Parliament to write laws that will require you to
16:06
Speaker 4: get relicensed, and your political beliefs will be part of
16:10
Speaker 4: that licensure. But will they ask if you're part of
16:16
Speaker 4: a radicalized religion that insists on killing someone else who
16:22
Speaker 4: doesn't partake in your particular flavor of religion, Why do
16:27
Speaker 4: I doubt that? Why do I doubt that the restrictions
16:30
Speaker 4: that the Australian government will try to put on firearm ownership,
16:35
Speaker 4: won't ask anything about your radicalized religious beliefs, just like
16:42
Speaker 4: everything else we do. It's just like the Patriot Act,
16:49
Speaker 4: with a very small smattering of things that went on
16:53
Speaker 4: on September eleventh, two thousand and one being addressed in
16:56
Speaker 4: the Patriot Act, and a whole massive slew of things
17:02
Speaker 4: that had nothing to do with it becoming dictatorially regulated
17:10
Speaker 4: by the American government. And Australia is going to do
17:17
Speaker 4: the same thing. Now You're going to have to come
17:20
Speaker 4: in for your apparently social test on your firearms. And
17:25
Speaker 4: you might agree, you might say, you know what, I
17:28
Speaker 4: want somebody who wants a gun license to get a
17:31
Speaker 4: check up from the neck up. So point to the
17:35
Speaker 4: US constitutional provision that says you have the right to
17:40
Speaker 4: bare arms, provided you're not crazy, provided you're not out
17:51
Speaker 4: of step with the vox popular Before you answer, have
17:57
Speaker 4: you ever been to a planning commission meeting or a
17:59
Speaker 4: zoning board meeting where the community, and by the community,
18:03
Speaker 4: I mean a handful of people in the community don't
18:06
Speaker 4: want a particular business to open up, whether it's a
18:09
Speaker 4: vape shop or a nightclub or a gun range or
18:17
Speaker 4: a chain restaurant with neon signs, and they all get
18:22
Speaker 4: together and they say we're going to vote and they
18:26
Speaker 4: enact democratic capitalism on a business. You should think about
18:30
Speaker 4: that before you start giving the government control over things
18:34
Speaker 4: that are God given rights and in the United States
18:37
Speaker 4: constitutionally sworn to be protected. Because there's going to be
18:44
Speaker 4: a lot of this and none of it, all so
18:48
Speaker 4: very conveniently, will be anything more than a smoke screen
18:52
Speaker 4: to keep us from talking about the Islamist and his
18:55
Speaker 4: son who decided a gathering of Jews was target practice.
19:04
Speaker 4: One can only hope the bevy of virgins that the
19:10
Speaker 4: patriarch of this hateful Islamist family has found are perhaps
19:16
Speaker 4: donkeys or something else that will kick him with their
19:20
Speaker 4: hooves should he approach them amorously. We have to stop
19:32
Speaker 4: dancing around the idea that there are people so at
19:35
Speaker 4: very least the Prime Minister is addressing the fact that
19:38
Speaker 4: they were radicalized. But how were they radicalized? Could membership
19:44
Speaker 4: of a political party be radicalized? This isn't how you
19:48
Speaker 4: deal with this stuff. Truly. The man who stood up
19:54
Speaker 4: and entered the pantheon of amazing twenty first century heroes
20:02
Speaker 4: gives us the example of exactly how to deal with this.
20:09
Speaker 4: Let's go back to sky news.
20:12
Speaker 14: Man snakes up on one of the gunmen and wrestles
20:15
Speaker 14: the firearm away.
20:16
Speaker 6: It's the most unbelievable sat over.
20:19
Speaker 4: Sadly, it is unbelievable because so few of us can
20:24
Speaker 4: imagine us doing that. He hit him with a rock,
20:31
Speaker 4: and guess what God has given him the right to
20:34
Speaker 4: keep and bear that particular form of arm. He armed
20:38
Speaker 4: himself with a big rock, hit the guy in the
20:42
Speaker 4: head with it, took his gun. And how much you
20:49
Speaker 4: want to bet that this guy's going to be the
20:51
Speaker 4: one that winds up in trouble In Australia, again, different country,
20:57
Speaker 4: similar in its backing, similar in the fact that people
21:03
Speaker 4: are allowed to own firearms, but they will take the
21:11
Speaker 4: smoke screen of the firearm. They will take the smoke
21:15
Speaker 4: screen of the scary black rifle and again use it
21:20
Speaker 4: as cover so they don't have to address the real issue,
21:26
Speaker 4: which is one religious belief that believes that as long
21:31
Speaker 4: as other religious beliefs exist, murder has to take place.
21:38
Speaker 4: And damn us all, if we don't address this, and
21:40
Speaker 4: we don't address it soon, this is going to become
21:44
Speaker 4: more and more commonplace, and we're going to need more
21:48
Speaker 4: and more people like this guy who went up and
21:51
Speaker 4: clocked the guy with a rock to stop it from
21:55
Speaker 4: getting even worse. Still no comfort to the families who
21:58
Speaker 4: lost loved ones.

23:02
Speaker 18: I'm doctor Michael Bailey, President of the American Veterinary Medical Association.
23:06
Speaker 18: Artificial intelligence is everywhere, and now it's helping veterinarians deliver
23:11
Speaker 18: better care for pets. From AI assisted radiographs that speed

Speaker 7: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
24:07
Speaker 7: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
24:12
Speaker 7: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
24:18
Speaker 7: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
24:22
Speaker 7: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
24:26
Speaker 7: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
24:31
Speaker 7: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
24:36
Speaker 7: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
24:42
Speaker 7: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
24:45
Speaker 7: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
24:50

26:25
Speaker 15: costs go to heating and cooling. Energy efficiency isn't just
26:29

26:50
Speaker 15: improve your insulation. Another time to cut energy costs is
26:54
Speaker 15: when you shop for a new appliance. Look for the
26:57

Speaker 2: H question for you from Joe Thomas. It's first thing today.
28:22
Speaker 1: What you've got to get?
28:42
Speaker 4: This email comes in from Marcus. He says, perhaps Joe,
28:48
Speaker 4: we're wrong. He said, I appreciate the fact that you
28:53
Speaker 4: seem to at least try to bring all sides into this.
28:57
Speaker 4: But perhaps the specter of the gun is exactly what
29:00
Speaker 4: we're doing wrong. We claim that our right to bear
29:09
Speaker 4: arms is to give us the opportunity to fight back
29:13
Speaker 4: against the overreaching government, to defend ourselves against tyranny. Marcus right,
29:21
Speaker 4: he said, Yet how many times does that work out?
29:26
Speaker 4: Or how many times does it wind up? Like Ruby Ridge.
29:33
Speaker 4: I think your premise is, let's just say we all
29:37
Speaker 4: vote for the government we want, and then the government
29:40
Speaker 4: can go target the people we don't want, Marcus, And
29:44
Speaker 4: then are we any better than the Islamists, the mosques
29:51
Speaker 4: that send their parishioners, if you will, out to shoot
29:56
Speaker 4: up beaches full of Jewish people. And do we not
30:01
Speaker 4: care because well, there's a whole portion of the white
30:05
Speaker 4: supremacist Nazi. Give me a red hat and I can
30:10
Speaker 4: hide myself under a red ball cap, types who would say, hey,
30:15
Speaker 4: you know what, and it's horrific. It's horrific to think, Marcus.
30:19
Speaker 4: And I'm not sure you're of that mind. I think
30:21
Speaker 4: you were talking more about the firearm aspect of it
30:25
Speaker 4: than the Islamist targeting of somebody who just believes in
30:29
Speaker 4: a faith different than theirs, and we haven't even scratched
30:35
Speaker 4: the surface of brown. We have little information. Apparently the
30:40
Speaker 4: police are looking at Rob Reiner's kid for committing the murders.
30:46
Speaker 4: Drug issues and things like that, all manners of things
30:50
Speaker 4: to unpack this morning. By the way, ten days from Christmas,
30:57
Speaker 4: do you have your pear tree planted? Partridge for it?
31:02
Speaker 4: Joel is hanging on the line with us at four
31:04
Speaker 4: three four eight eight two four two one seven Happy Monday.
31:07
Speaker 4: As much as we can do, Joel, We're trying to
31:09
Speaker 4: get our days started or wrapped up satanly and and
31:13
Speaker 4: I guess that's all my job here is is to
31:15
Speaker 4: try to put some sanity on it. How are you doing.
31:19
Speaker 19: I'm okay, still fighting the job. But uh, I just
31:24
Speaker 19: wanted to say this. When you ignore information, when you
31:29
Speaker 19: ignore signs of things that are changing around you, and
31:35
Speaker 19: a lot of people go, oh, that'll never happen to me,
31:39
Speaker 19: or this will never happen to a community. But Israel
31:44
Speaker 19: is one of the uh. They have such great scientists
31:47
Speaker 19: and they have a lot of advancement in cell phone technology.
31:52
Speaker 19: They have a group called NSO and Pegasus, and they
31:55
Speaker 19: also have the Masade. And if you go back in history,
31:59
Speaker 19: and you look at Iraq when when they they told
32:04
Speaker 19: the world, hey, they're developing, you know, a nuclear program.
32:08
Speaker 19: It wasn't just to build a reactor, was actually building
32:11
Speaker 19: you know, warheads and stuff and so so there were warnings.
32:16
Speaker 19: There were warnings for US for nine to eleven. The
32:19
Speaker 19: messade told the government, you know, our government. I don't
32:22
Speaker 19: know which part of it you know, you never know
32:24
Speaker 19: if it's the CIA or if it was directly to
32:26
Speaker 19: the military.
32:27
Speaker 4: Pot well, that was part of that was part of
32:29
Speaker 4: the reason they wanted to do the Patriot Act was
32:31
Speaker 4: because they claimed that there was no coordination amongst the
32:35
Speaker 4: intelligence communities. So you're right on that is who were
32:39
Speaker 4: they told. I think it was the CIA was told,
32:41
Speaker 4: but they didn't tell the FBI. And the CIA wasn't
32:44
Speaker 4: allowed to do anything in country. And we've seen that
32:48
Speaker 4: barge leave the port as well. Anyway, But your point
32:51
Speaker 4: is right right on.
32:53
Speaker 19: We knew, well what I was going to carry over
32:57
Speaker 19: to this is the Australian government was worn week weeks
33:02
Speaker 19: before and and it and it's it's it's not the
33:05
Speaker 19: bravado of somebody who has a big chest and and
33:09
Speaker 19: saying they're stronger than you. It's the bravado of saying, hey,
33:13
Speaker 19: we have information that's factual, because most people don't know
33:18
Speaker 19: what a lot of the a lot of the great
33:21
Speaker 19: things that they did to take out Hamas and hesbel
33:23
Speaker 19: or were these cell phones that they rigged and they
33:26
Speaker 19: were actually sent you know, through mail or however they
33:29
Speaker 19: were delivered to the you know, bottom stores. And and
33:33
Speaker 19: and I think there's an underlying UH issue here in
33:38
Speaker 19: the United States where we have and I'm not taking
33:41
Speaker 19: on a lot of you know, the faith, but these
33:45
Speaker 19: schools are teaching in these in these religious groups, just
33:49
Speaker 19: like in England and and Norway and Sweden and there
33:53
Speaker 19: and Germany, they're they're teaching people to hate. And it's
33:57
Speaker 19: not a matter of just having free speech. It's a
34:00
Speaker 19: matter of the communities being aware. Now I don't I
34:05
Speaker 19: don't believe in I don't believe in in UH taking
34:08
Speaker 19: away your arms. But I just think they're need there's
34:12
Speaker 19: that awareness there, and they better open up the can
34:14
Speaker 19: and and and see which which groups are are doing
34:18
Speaker 19: what I mean, not not necessarily with the Patriot Act,
34:21
Speaker 19: but just not ignoring the signs well.
34:24
Speaker 4: And and here's the thing is they'll rush to you know, allegations, hints,
34:28
Speaker 4: allegations and rumors regarding a political figure as long as
34:33
Speaker 4: he was a Republican. But you know, so they'll you know,
34:37
Speaker 4: if you have an inkling you want to tell the
34:39
Speaker 4: press about JD. Vance or or you pick the Republican
34:44
Speaker 4: Ron DeSantis or you know Byron Donald's and you want
34:49
Speaker 4: to you know, have them docs list of Marjorie Taylor Green.
34:54
Speaker 4: She's had her house swatted or what yeah, that's what
34:57
Speaker 4: they call it swatted. Five times people have called the
35:01
Speaker 4: police and said that there's a domestic dispute involving their
35:06
Speaker 4: arms at Marjorie Taylor Green's house. So police have to respond.
35:10
Speaker 4: Yet Yet, when we're given intel that somebody is going
35:15
Speaker 4: to do something horrific targeting a beach full of Hanukkah celebrants,
35:22
Speaker 4: we were like, well, we weren't sure what it was.
35:25
Speaker 4: And here's a a sidebar and this goes into the
35:30
Speaker 4: Charlotte Subway rider as well. The horrific murder there right
35:39
Speaker 4: there are aside from the guy in the rock who
35:45
Speaker 4: clubbed the shooter and wrestled the gun from him, there
35:52
Speaker 4: was quite a few people who watched these two walk
35:56
Speaker 4: up to the beach with their rifles in hand, just
36:01
Speaker 4: like the people who were sitting on the train. And
36:03
Speaker 4: it sounds like I'm shaming people I don't know, because
36:07
Speaker 4: God bless me, I have not been in that kind
36:09
Speaker 4: of situation since I used to hang around in bars
36:12
Speaker 4: and we would see the odd bar brawl start and
36:15
Speaker 4: do you intercede? What do you do? But you see
36:19
Speaker 4: somebody walking up to a beach carrying a rifle, you say, hey, dude,
36:23
Speaker 4: what are you up to? Or at very least you
36:26
Speaker 4: call a constable and say, hey, I don't know what
36:29
Speaker 4: he's up to. But it's not hunting season, and this
36:31
Speaker 4: isn't the woods where you know the wallabies run. So
36:36
Speaker 4: there's plenty of things that fall into see something, do something,
36:41
Speaker 4: that kind of thing. But even before that, if you
36:45
Speaker 4: know that there are groups that are being radicalized and
36:49
Speaker 4: we find out about it, you need to do something.
36:53
Speaker 4: You can't just hide behind well, it's their religion. I'm sorry,
36:57
Speaker 4: that's not an excuse anymore. There plenty of Muslims who
37:01
Speaker 4: will tell you the same thing that live in this
37:03
Speaker 4: United States that say, no, no, that's not us, because
37:08
Speaker 4: it is a radical interpretation. But if you know it's
37:11
Speaker 4: just as easy that we don't to have radical interpretations
37:16
Speaker 4: of the Old Testament, stonings and things like that. So
37:19
Speaker 4: we have to stop using these religious texts as convenient
37:25
Speaker 4: excuses as get out of jail free cards for our
37:32
Speaker 4: own hateful behavior. And we have to start with thou
37:36
Speaker 4: shalt not murder, period, period, end of story. You know,
37:40
Speaker 4: all the other legislations and machinations of it. You have
37:45
Speaker 4: to begin an end with thou shalt not murder. And
37:48
Speaker 4: I know the Quran doesn't have the Old Testament in
37:52
Speaker 4: it the way the Christian Bible does, but it has
37:57
Speaker 4: tenants in there regarding the taking of life, and it seems.
38:01
Speaker 12: According to a new report from Discovery Education, ninety two
38:04
Speaker 12: percent of students say that engaging lessons make school more fun,
38:08
Speaker 12: and more than ninety percent of educators said engagement is
38:11
Speaker 12: critical for student achievement. Student engagement is essential for learning,
38:15
Speaker 12: but gaps remain about how to achieve, measure and sustain
38:18
Speaker 12: student's interest in the classroom. Although sixty three percent of
38:22
Speaker 12: students agreed that students are highly engaged in school, only
38:26
Speaker 12: forty five percent of teachers and fifty one percent of
38:28
Speaker 12: principles surveyed agreed with the same statement, educators disagreed on
38:33
Speaker 12: the top indicators of engagement. Seventy two percent of teachers
38:37
Speaker 12: said asking thoughtful questions was the strongest indicator of student engagement,
38:41
Speaker 12: while fifty four percent of superintendents rate performing well on
38:44
Speaker 12: assessments as a top engagement indicator. Also, two thirds of
38:49
Speaker 12: students said they believed that AI could help them learn faster,
38:52

43:45
Speaker 3: brought to you by NITSA and AD Council.
43:47
Speaker 20: You know the legal drinking age is twenty one. You
43:50
Speaker 20: may also know this law protects teens. Find out more
43:53
Speaker 20: at Don'tserve Teens dot gov. A message from the We
43:56
Speaker 20: Don't Serve Teens program and the Federal Trade Commission.
44:19
Speaker 2: From the home of the first event, first thing today.
44:27
Speaker 21: No, you're not your own your measic ton, you travel,
44:46
Speaker 21: you know what decid.
44:56
Speaker 4: You let to So let's unpack this a little bit further.
45:05
Speaker 4: And as I said, now you've got the Prime Minister
45:08
Speaker 4: this morning of Australia saying that they're going to try
45:13
Speaker 4: to change Australian law, which is far more stringent regarding
45:17
Speaker 4: gun ownership than in the United States, any of the
45:20
Speaker 4: United States, to require you to get reapproved for your
45:28
Speaker 4: gun ownership licenses on a more frequent basis. Apparently, you
45:33
Speaker 4: know you get one here in Virginia. I have to
45:35
Speaker 4: reapply every five years. As a matter of fact, before
45:39
Speaker 4: I think Friday, I have to re up. Mind's very
45:44
Speaker 4: precious to me because my concealed carry permits is issued
45:48
Speaker 4: by the City of Charlottesville. It's like a collector's side
45:52
Speaker 4: of it. It's like having it's like having a rookie
45:54
Speaker 4: Mickey Mantle baseball card, or you know, pick the player
46:01
Speaker 4: of your choice. It's like having a seat, you know,
46:04
Speaker 4: a vinyl copy of Taylor Swift's latest album. I don't
46:07
Speaker 4: know what the collectible thing is in your world, but
46:10
Speaker 4: to me, you know, a rookie Mickey mantlecard is worth
46:14
Speaker 4: probably as much as five or six pounds of silver.
46:19
Speaker 4: And we'll check in with our friend uh friends at
46:22
Speaker 4: the jcsgold dot com coming up at a quickie plug
46:26
Speaker 4: in there. But that our the things that we hold
46:33
Speaker 4: precious can be you know, rend asunder by anyone who
46:40
Speaker 4: wants to come along and do horrific things to us.
46:43
Speaker 4: This is the unhinged world of the amoral, where we're
46:50
Speaker 4: allowed to hide behind our religious beliefs to commit horrific crimes.
46:57
Speaker 4: And I'll be honest with you, Slavery was wrong and
47:01
Speaker 4: we fixed it. The Crusades were wrong, and we fixed it.
47:05
Speaker 4: We stopped doing those things. And a lot of the
47:12
Speaker 4: Madrasas that teach this kind of violence will use the
47:15
Speaker 4: imagery of the Crusades to say they did it to us,
47:20
Speaker 4: now we're going to do it to them. And a
47:23
Speaker 4: society that can't get past this eye for an eye
47:26
Speaker 4: stuff is doomed. Some archaeologists will be investigating this planet
47:37
Speaker 4: a thousand years from now and say, I don't know
47:39
Speaker 4: what made this species go extinct. They seemed to be everywhere,
47:43
Speaker 4: they seemed to have all this stuff, They developed a civilization,
47:47
Speaker 4: and they were just gone because we started killing each
47:50
Speaker 4: other because we disagreed with each other. Thou shalt not murder, period.
48:00
Speaker 4: And sure you say, well, you know that's Judeo Christian ethic.
48:03
Speaker 4: You know my church says I'm allowed to kill because
48:07
Speaker 4: you disagree with me. Okay, then you can't live here,
48:12
Speaker 4: once again saying the quiet part out loud. If you
48:15
Speaker 4: think you can kill somebody because they don't agree with
48:18
Speaker 4: your religion, then you shouldn't be allowed to be around
48:21
Speaker 4: people who disagree with you on a religion. We're trying
48:25
Speaker 4: to protect you from committing murder because you apparently have
48:29
Speaker 4: lost that marble from your bag that says you don't
48:33
Speaker 4: have the right to kill someone, period, end of story.
48:42
Speaker 4: I mean, you want to test people for their beliefs
48:49
Speaker 4: on a regularly scheduled basis to see if they still
48:52
Speaker 4: qualify for a firearms license. What questions are you going
49:02
Speaker 4: to ask? Do you believe it's okay to kill people
49:04
Speaker 4: because they follow a different church than you do? And
49:09
Speaker 4: when the guy says, no, absolutely not, why would Why
49:13
Speaker 4: would I believe that? I believe you. And then they
49:17
Speaker 4: walk out of the room and go shoot up a
49:20
Speaker 4: synagogue or a Christian church, and you say, gee, he
49:26
Speaker 4: told us he wasn't going to do that. Oh he
49:29
Speaker 4: lied on a federal form too. Put that on his docket,
49:35
Speaker 4: and add another life sentence to that research department. Here
49:43
Speaker 4: at first thing today, Eddie in Sconsville just alerted me
49:48
Speaker 4: that a Mickey mantle mint conditioned rookie card is worth
49:51
Speaker 4: over a million dollars. I don't know if my City
49:54
Speaker 4: of Charlottesville issued concealed Carrie permit is worth that, but
49:59
Speaker 4: it is precious to and it is a rarity people
50:02
Speaker 4: still to this data. You got one from the city
50:05
Speaker 4: of Charlotte. It's almost like having a concealed carry permit
50:08
Speaker 4: issued by the city of Los Angeles or the city
50:11
Speaker 4: of New York. Mostly because the city of Charlottesville immolated
50:17
Speaker 4: itself on national television back in twenty seventeen, and everyone thinks,
50:23
Speaker 4: whoa I mean, I'm glad I live in Chicago because
50:26
Speaker 4: I placed Charlottesville's nutty. Really and how many people were
50:32
Speaker 4: shot and killed in places like Chicago this weekend, Philadelphia, Atlanta,
50:38
Speaker 4: Los Angeles, because it wasn't one big group. But thou
50:46
Speaker 4: shalt not murder has been lost on us. Rob Reiner's
50:53
Speaker 4: death may very well have been driven by that same
50:57
Speaker 4: sort of hatred, just on a much more individual rtualized level.
51:03
Speaker 4: Thou shalt not murder. There are people who say, you know,
51:11
Speaker 4: the guy who hit the guy in the head with
51:13
Speaker 4: a rock was wrong. If you can believe that, go
51:16
Speaker 4: to social media if you dare to dip your toe
51:20
Speaker 4: into that morass.
51:28
Speaker 1: It is.
51:31
Speaker 4: A world that we can grapple with or get a
51:34
Speaker 4: hold of pretty easily, but it's going to require us.
51:42
Speaker 4: If we see somebody walking up to a beach carrying
51:45
Speaker 4: a hunting rifle with a scope, I think he had
51:48
Speaker 4: a scope. I I know it was a hunting It
51:50
Speaker 4: looked like a hunting rifle. Say hey, dude, what do
51:54
Speaker 4: you hear hunting? You know it sounds inane, but security
52:01
Speaker 4: professionals will tell and train retail clerks to have somebody
52:06
Speaker 4: say hello to each customer as they come through the door.
52:10
Speaker 4: It has a profound impact on shoplifting because most of
52:14
Speaker 4: us are like, oh, somebody saw me here. The anonymity
52:18
Speaker 4: of being able to walk around and do things and
52:21
Speaker 4: vanish like the shooter at Brown University, indulges our inner
52:31
Speaker 4: hatreds and our inner inabilities to understand thou shalt not murder.
52:40
Speaker 4: And there's selfishness involved, self centeredness. So much of this
52:46
Speaker 4: at play that we can fix without the Australian Prime Minister.
52:51
Speaker 2: In today's troubled world, are USA Armed forces stand ready
52:54
