"Colorado Medicare Fraud" (Tuesday, April 7, 2026, Hour 4) · First Thing Today with Joe Thomas

• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Because I don't mind being a shelf that having celt
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: it for many years, by the by the fake from.
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: The home of the First Amendment. First thing today, George said.
• 0:12
  Speaker 3: Steal metem have a day at least for work, when
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: the sun comes up, drops a kid to school.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: They think Joe has a dreamer.
• 0:23
  Speaker 4: All the treasure needs.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: No one that Joe's as smiled, he only as.
• 0:34
  Speaker 4: Joe, thank you for letting me be of service to
• 0:36
  Speaker 4: you this morning. Simplicity. I think that's the thing that
• 0:43
  Speaker 4: is the most important in the world today is is
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: you look at simplicity. So you say, there's a body
• 0:49
  Speaker 4: of water and people need to ship things through that
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: body of water. And one group is threatening that body
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: of water as if it's there, and they're going to
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: bomb anyone who goes through it, and you can't even
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: get out of your own damn way to guard it.
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: And you say, well, then what's the efficacy of something
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: like the United Nations If they can't even come out
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: and say, listen, this is the world's waterway, not yours,
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: and you're going to start attacking people. This was the
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: whole point of international waters versus territorial waters. And if
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: the United nations can't successfully get its head out of
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: its collective behind. And yeah, they've got the VETO and
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: the Security Council, and each one of these founding countries
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: like China has a veto to keep things from going on.
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: What is China's retribution for this? China isn't going to
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: profit from making oil. They get to go through the
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: Strait of Hormus. The RAN's not going to shoot at
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: their ships, so Iran can keep cranking oil out through
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: the carg Island shipping depot and keep sending it off
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: in there. America is not going to fire a missile
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: at a Chinese boat. What is the repercussion to some
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: place like China, who doesn't give a rat's patuiti about
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: the price of oil in the world. As a matter
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: of fact, they like it when the price of oil
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: goes up because it helps them sell more solar panels
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: to American left wingers in places like Virginia and California,
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: the lands of fruits and nuts. So there they go
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: and they do their thing, just as Russia did, the
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: Soviet Union did for years. The United States has done
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: it as well, but we always worried about the repercussions
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: of it, So we tell you our first thing, so
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: that you can tell us what your view is of it.
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: We're going to get into it with the epic times
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: a little bit later on in the hour and the
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: possibility of boots on the ground, as it were. But
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: first to the dark side of the moon and photographs
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: now of the dark side of the move proving that
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: Pink Floyd was right all along. It's all dark. Orion
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: Capsule was awoken to the voice of Jim Lovell, who
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: passed away last year at the age of ninety seven,
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: but recorded a message that told the Orion astronauts, welcome
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: to my old neighborhood. Tomorrow it's going to be Tom
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: Hanks pretending to be mister Rogers saying won't you be
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: my neighbor? And Jim Lovell was played by Tom all Right,
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: too many connections sorry. Iran has rejected the forty five
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: day ceasefire proposal and said it one a permanent end
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: to the war, which is good news because that's generally
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: what the United States wants as well. They told Pakistan
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: to get this out of here. Meanwhile, President Mahsud Prizikian
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: said that fourteen million Iranians have volunteered to be missile
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: fodder and stand hand in hand outside of energy generation
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: facilities and across bridges that President Trump has threatened to
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: shoot if they don't get out of the way of
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. President Trump pushed
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: back on the threats. He was asked at a press
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: conference yesterday if those were tatamount to war crimes, and
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: he said no, they were not. Didn't cite sources on that,
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: but he did say that it was not a war crime.
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: He didn't ask about plan.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Because of the power of our military, where every bridge
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: in Iran will be decimated by twelve o'clock tomorrow night,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: where every power plant in Iran will be out of business, burning, exploding,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: and never to be used again. I mean complete demolition
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: by twelve o'clock and it'll happen over a period of
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: four hours if we wanted to.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: We don't want that to happen.
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: Meanwhile, the world community still sits watching to see what
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: happens next between the two countries. The President was asked
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: if at the end of the conflict they were going
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: to take over the Iranian oil flies, and he said,
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: we could, but I don't want to because Americans want
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: us to come home. Steve Bannon won a Supreme Court
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: order on Monday, and it's expected to lead to the

• 8:07
  Speaker 11: bioavailable and highly absorbable Curcumin products on the market. I
• 8:13
  Speaker 11: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
• 8:18
  Speaker 11: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
• 8:22
  Speaker 11: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
• 8:26
  Speaker 11: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
• 8:32
  Speaker 11: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 8:37
  Speaker 11: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
• 8:42
  Speaker 11: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
• 8:46
  Speaker 11: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
• 8:51
  Speaker 11: healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com where

• 10:00
  Speaker 14: It's always a boy growing up on a farm in Tennessee,
• 10:03
  Speaker 14: I've been fascinated with animals. I'm not only in awe
• 10:05
  Speaker 14: of their beauty and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic.

• 10:20
  Speaker 14: jump allows them to navigate the trees and the wild

  Speaker 14: by our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are
• 10:29
  Speaker 14: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,

  Speaker 2: fun in that first thing?
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: Today?
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: By Joe Thomas on the Tunk Media Network.
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: So bad medicine, Colorado's budget And for our friends in
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: Cortes down the four corners, don't look over the border, seely,
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: don't you do it? I don't look over the border
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: and say, boy, they must have it so much better
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: in those other countries. The earth is always browner on
• 13:59
  Speaker 4: the other side of the border, isn't it. And listening
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: down there on KVFC out there and our friends in
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: Colorado Springs at KPPF this morning, I think we missed
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: or do we miss Greeley already at cake we know
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: what we need. We need all those clocks you ever see,
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: like you know the wall in a newsroom, like you
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: know who's but the clock would say, like which stations
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: are tuned in at which hours? You know which hours
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: of the show. But somebody tell the folks down in
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: Greeley that we were talking about them at KFKA tomorrow morning.
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: Colorado just increased your taxes by one and a half percent,
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: mostly because medicaid. Medicaid. This from the Colorado Springs Gazette.
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: Medicaid has been driving overspending both in the twenty twenty
• 14:57
  Speaker 4: five twenty six fiscal year and the upp coming state
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: budget that goes into effect July one, the result of
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: over utilization of services. The state program that provides health
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: coverage to low income residences be sent by allegations of waste. No, no,
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: not in medicare. That wouldn't happen. No, Someone get Tim
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: Walltz on the phone. He'll explain it to you. Fraud
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: abuse leadership has been accused of mismanagement. Congress is investigating
• 15:29
  Speaker 4: the fraud allegations, and the proposed spending for the Department
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: of Health Care Policy and Financing in Colorado stands at
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: nineteen point two billion dollars. Remember when that used to
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: be your state budget. Now it's just the medicaid portion
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: portion of it with five point seventy five billion in
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: general fund support. Man of your taxes, that's two hundred
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: and twelve million dollars more than twenty five twenty six
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: about a three percent, three point seven percent increase. Why well,
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: remember in the glory days of the Patient Protection and
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: Affordable Care Act, the development of it, so we're talking
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: about two thousand and eight, two thousand and nine, early
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: twenty ten, is they trundled towards the ram rotting of
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, you know, the
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: bill that was so good we had to pass it
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: before we could find out what was in it. But
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: one of the sales pitches that young Barry Setero and
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: his administration went out under the world to sell us
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: was that it was basically going to become Medicare for all,
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: that that was going to be the fallback position because
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: Medicare for all would be so much more efficient because
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: in a small percentage focus group in the late nineties,
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: if you looked at Medicare, it's return on investment isn't
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: the right phrase on it, but its cost per point
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: was not as high as it would be for an
• 17:12
  Speaker 4: insurance company. Insurance companies were costing each ratepayer more for
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: each dollar that they were able to use for healthcare.
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: So the argument was that Medicare and Medicaid worked much
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: more efficiently. The argument, I think eloquently put out by
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: Sally Pipes at the Pacific Research Institute on my local
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: program at the time was that that's because not that
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: many people use and that if you scale it up,
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: the fraud the abuse will grow exponentially far beyond what
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: happens because in a private insurance company, you have this
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: division called fraud investigations. I know this for a fact
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: because that's what my brother does for which is the
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: one the one with the guy from the closer who's
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: always walking into a room saying, well, should have had
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: was that Farmers? Okay, so my brother works for Farmers
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: and in the job of investigating fraud against the insurance company.
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: Does Medicare and medicaid have that division?
• 18:25
  Speaker 19: No?
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: Why that might be a voter we're accusing of fraud
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: and abuse or an illegal alien that's helping us look
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: like we care. So fraud and abuse, over use by
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: a growing population that is falling into the clutches of
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: poverty because we're allowing this economy to skid towards Marxism.
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: Because that's the other part of this over utilization. The
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: Colorado Springs Gazette uses that very phrase over utilization because
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: more and more people, based on the standards, are qualifying
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: for these aid programs. Because it's a percentage of the
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: median income. So the more prosperous one end of the
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: spectrum gets the median then falls below it. More and
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: more people are fitting into that box. And that's not
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: just Colorado that's everywhere. More and more people are working
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: full time management professional jobs and can't afford to live
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: where they are. And this is a problem that conservatives
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: don't want to talk about because they feel like, oh,
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: that's a that's a gimme, that's a layup putt for
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: the leftists. Oh, we don't talk about that because that's
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: their agenda. No, our agenda has to be to debunk
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: their agenda. The leftist will just come in like Abigail
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: Spanburger and say, we're gonna make Virginia more affordable, or
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: Colorado or insert name of state here, wherever you want
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: to Florida or Idaho or Alaska. We're going to make
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: Alaska affordable again. And then you vote for them, saying, well,
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: who could be against that? And then they don't. Then
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: the electric bills start going up, and then you start
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: hearing about subsidy programs. I mean, it's bad enough. The
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: governors like Spanburger will give money to Astroseneka and Eli
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: Lilly just to bribe them into not pulling out of
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: their factory developments because she and her leftist buddies won
• 20:46
  Speaker 4: the government. But they're not helping the heart. Anyone working
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: at this level. I mean professional people. I know, commercial
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: production directors for TV stations that can't afford to live
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: in their hometowns. That's not good and we need to
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: reorder the way we value what we do and who
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: does it for us, and where the money is going
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: because so much debt is being consumed, So much money
• 21:26
  Speaker 4: out of our economy is being consumed by either federal,
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: state or local debt and corporate debt. We don't talk
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: about that either in conservative talk radio because it's a
• 21:38
  Speaker 4: you know, you're aware for free markets, yes, but the
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: indebtedness of our American corporations and the bailouts that they
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: look for, if not governmental, at least through courts, leaving
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: people holding the bag for money that they lent them,
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: even if it's in the way of buying stock options,

• 28:23
  Speaker 19: soon as they can get weapons. If they had weapons,
• 28:26
  Speaker 19: not many of them. If they had weapons, that would
• 28:29
  Speaker 19: go in the other way, and you know what happened.
• 28:31
  Speaker 19: Iran would give up and do savage because they wouldn't
• 28:34
  Speaker 19: be able to take it.

  Speaker 4: But that's what we're waiting for, is we're waiting for

  Speaker 4: Sunday talking about the Kurds who had their way with
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: a gun shipment, and I don't know what that's going
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: to do to them. But you're seeing some of the
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: oldest factions in the book come to play here. Ryan
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: Morgan is the foreign affairs reporter for the Epic Times
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: and he is on the newsmaker's line with us. Ryan,
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: good morning, Thank you for taking a little time out
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: to shine some light in here for us.
• 29:47
  Speaker 24: How are you doing, sir, I'm doing all right, and
• 29:51
  Speaker 24: thank you for having me.
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: Not at all. Thank you for recovering what you do
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: and right now Iran being the key note to it.
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: And foremost, let's start with the un yet again not
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: being able to come up with anything more than a
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: sternly worded email saying please open the straight of horror moves.
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: This was for decades why nobody wanted to engage the
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: mac Daddy, the Grand Pappy, as I see it, of
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: state sponsors of terrorism, terrorism is Iran because of Iran's
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: position on the straight of horror moves. Do you think
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: from what you've seen, the world community is going to
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: get anything right regarding opening these international waters.
• 30:34
  Speaker 24: Yeah, you know, and this is something that's been obviously
• 30:38
  Speaker 24: has been war gamed out pretty extensively. In any scenario
• 30:43
  Speaker 24: where we go after Iran, you know, to a degree
• 30:48
  Speaker 24: that they feel threatened at an extential level, they will
• 30:51
  Speaker 24: shut down the horror moves And this is something that
• 30:55
  Speaker 24: they've been practicing to do for decades. Being said, I think,
• 31:01
  Speaker 24: you know, Trump's you know, kind of greatest expectations that
• 31:06
  Speaker 24: you know, the international community would step up have not
• 31:09
  Speaker 24: been met. Uh that being said, I I certainly think
• 31:13
  Speaker 24: that if there were an international coalition, they could get
• 31:16
  Speaker 24: the job done. It is not easy, you know, it's
• 31:19
  Speaker 24: a lot easier said than done. Still, even even taking
• 31:23
  Speaker 24: back the horror moves with a significant force does expose
• 31:27
  Speaker 24: a lot of international military forces to you know it,
• 31:33
  Speaker 24: they would be they would be taking a lot of
• 31:36
  Speaker 24: heavy fire. And that's one scenario that actually talked about
• 31:41
  Speaker 24: is the taking of Keshum Island there at the at
• 31:44
  Speaker 24: the front of the horror moves that would be that
• 31:48
  Speaker 24: would be a difficult operation just with the current force
• 31:52
  Speaker 24: build up that the US forces have in the region.
• 31:55
  Speaker 24: But that's something that they could do.
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: Is there. And we played the clip from Sunday President
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: Trump on his way to the Easter Egg role and
• 32:04
  Speaker 4: talking about trying to get guns into the hands of
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: the civilian population of Iran and the Kurds intercepting it.
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: I think highlights one of the problems we've had internationally
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: in a lot of these places is the enemy of
• 32:21
  Speaker 4: our enemy is not always our friend. They made us
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: to act like it, but is getting the opposition that
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: was getting killed in the streets to stand up against
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: this group going to be the key from where you sit,
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: Ryan and what you've covered so far.
• 32:40
  Speaker 13: Yeah, you know.
• 32:41
  Speaker 24: I the thing is, you know Trump, President Trump has
• 32:45
  Speaker 24: actually fluctuated quite a bit on whether or not regime
• 32:49
  Speaker 24: change is an overall goal of this campaign. If you know,
• 32:55
  Speaker 24: regime change were to come through an internal uprising, as
• 32:58
  Speaker 24: we kind of saw with this shipment of guns, you
• 33:02
  Speaker 24: know that was the clear intent of sending the guns,
• 33:05
  Speaker 24: is to start internal uprising. That would still require a
• 33:09
  Speaker 24: great bit of coordination, and that's something that I would
• 33:11
  Speaker 24: expect out of like our traditional Green rated Special Forces
• 33:17
  Speaker 24: or the CIA, those would be kind of the primary
• 33:21
  Speaker 24: the primary, Yeah, the primary components to actually provide that
• 33:26
  Speaker 24: coordination to drive like a rebel offensive and an actual
• 33:31
  Speaker 24: coordinated fashion. Otherwise you're just going to have a bunch
• 33:34
  Speaker 24: of disparate groups running around with guns and we don't
• 33:38
  Speaker 24: really have a whole lot of control over how they
• 33:41
  Speaker 24: use them. And that actually has uh has come back
• 33:45
  Speaker 24: to bide us in the past when we've done that
• 33:47
  Speaker 24: in a few other previous scenarios. I'm not putting my
• 33:53
  Speaker 24: money on there being an internal uprising at this point
• 33:58
  Speaker 24: in time. The way that the program is talking about
• 34:00
  Speaker 24: it is, you know, if we're taking that as word,
• 34:04
  Speaker 24: this is going to be a US military campaign that
• 34:08
  Speaker 24: wraps up by destroying Iron's military capabilities and probably its infrastructure.
• 34:15
  Speaker 24: And then the hope there is that once we leave,
• 34:19
  Speaker 24: you know, the regime will have kind of no remaining
• 34:22
  Speaker 24: functional capability to maintain order and control over their population.
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: Is the issue at hand here. President Trump said something
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: yesterday at his press conference about there's already been regime change,
• 34:38
  Speaker 4: and I don't know if he means Ayatola Junior, who
• 34:42
  Speaker 4: we haven't seen he's emailed some things since going off
• 34:45
  Speaker 4: into the Russian healthcare system. Or is he talking about
• 34:50
  Speaker 4: knowledge about something other than that? In these communicates that
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: we get from the theocracy, the Council of x Berts
• 35:01
  Speaker 4: is just them connecting to local news agencies and getting
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: word out that's saying, hey, we're still here, We're still
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: finding almost kind of like the Black Knight in Muddy
• 35:10
  Speaker 4: Python and the Holy Grail, it's but a flesh wound.
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: What is your sense covering us for the epic times? Ryan?
• 35:19
  Speaker 24: Yeah, that's the thing is is Trump obviously has not
• 35:23
  Speaker 24: been extremely precise and clear with what he means by
• 35:26
  Speaker 24: there's been a regime change other than you know, clearly
• 35:30
  Speaker 24: Ayatola Ali Kamenie, the senior guy, the eighty six year
• 35:35
  Speaker 24: old guy was killed and a lot of you know,
• 35:38
  Speaker 24: senior Iranian leadership around him was killed. So in Trump's phrasing,
• 35:45
  Speaker 24: it certainly comes off as Okay, well, we've regime changed
• 35:49
  Speaker 24: de facto, you know, by virtue of the fact that
• 35:52
  Speaker 24: we've killed the top leadership and other's you know, there's
• 35:55
  Speaker 24: this second layer of leadership in charge. I don't have
• 35:59
  Speaker 24: a clear pick sure that there's actually, you know, necessarily
• 36:04
  Speaker 24: a different structure of government. Really, it seems to be
• 36:09
  Speaker 24: that the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard or the IRGC, which
• 36:15
  Speaker 24: is a is a kind of special military component that's
• 36:18
  Speaker 24: separate from their main armed forces, now has a lot
• 36:23
  Speaker 24: more influence over the current leadership. They were the ones
• 36:26
  Speaker 24: that were pushing for the Iyatola's son to be the replacement.
• 36:30
  Speaker 24: I'm not necessarily seeing that as a as a de
• 36:34
  Speaker 24: radicalizing step. From my read of it, it looks like that,
• 36:39
  Speaker 24: you know, the most hardcore elements still kind of have
• 36:43
  Speaker 24: their their main people in charge at this point.
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: What about the conscripted military? Ryan Morgan, reporter, Foreign Affairs,
• 36:51
  Speaker 4: Military and Foreign Affairs for the Epic Times. What about
• 36:55
  Speaker 4: the conscript the military? Is there anything about, uh, whether
• 37:01
  Speaker 4: they're still organized and we're really just fighting the Republican
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: the revolutionary garden pardon me? Or or have have this
• 37:12
  Speaker 4: this conscriptive army, the regular army, if you will, turned
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: and supported someone else inside that we may not know about.
• 37:23
  Speaker 24: Yeah, I think, uh, I've heard it thrown around it
• 37:27
  Speaker 24: and I have no way of really validating it, because
• 37:31
  Speaker 24: you know, it is it is information that's you know,
• 37:34
  Speaker 24: basically coming through the telephone game. But you hear guys
• 37:37
  Speaker 24: like Rizza Polavi, the you know, the son of the
• 37:40
  Speaker 24: Shaw saying that there are you know, lots of defectors
• 37:44
  Speaker 24: ready to come over. And I would assume the defectors
• 37:47
  Speaker 24: are mostly from the the artache is the uh, you know,
• 37:52
  Speaker 24: the main armed forces, not the I, R g C,
• 37:55
  Speaker 24: the more hardcore element.
• 37:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I see that right.
• 37:59
  Speaker 24: Yeah, that being.

• 44:29
  Speaker 4: If I stop swimming, I'm dying.
• 44:35
  Speaker 10: What's on your mind?
• 44:38
  Speaker 4: So, Ryan, I appreciate it. Ryan Morgan with epic times
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: on whether we were talking about you know, what's coming
• 44:46
  Speaker 4: up from the streets in Iran, and because it's really
• 44:50
  Speaker 4: got to come from there from what I understood my
• 44:53
  Speaker 4: beliefs anyway, And you were leading me right before the
• 44:56
  Speaker 4: break to think that that's not happening.
• 44:58
  Speaker 24: Being said said, I have not seen any clear indications
• 45:03
  Speaker 24: of Iranians actually turning their guns on each other and
• 45:07
  Speaker 24: making a power play. And we would start to see
• 45:10
  Speaker 24: I think we would start to see some elements of
• 45:13
  Speaker 24: it at this point, but there's nothing clear that's emerged.
• 45:19
  Speaker 4: Is the internet blackout really hampering our knowledge of what's
• 45:23
  Speaker 4: going on and there people can't get on you know,
• 45:25
  Speaker 4: X or anything like that right now and say hey,
• 45:28
  Speaker 4: we're here, we're still fighting, or whatever it may be.
• 45:34
  Speaker 24: My understanding is that back in January, when there were
• 45:38
  Speaker 24: these you know, these big protests, we were sending in
• 45:43
  Speaker 24: you know, starlink to try and help maintain Internet accessibility.
• 45:48
  Speaker 24: Certainly we probably have human sources on the ground that
• 45:53
  Speaker 24: can give us kind of reliable information about what's going
• 45:56
  Speaker 24: on inside Iran, not from the thirty thousand foot view
• 46:00
  Speaker 24: you literally yes, So I don't know that the Internet
• 46:04
  Speaker 24: blackout is necessarily the constraining factor here.
• 46:10
  Speaker 4: Well, it seems it seems like, I know, President Trump
• 46:13
  Speaker 4: talked about edicts saying, you know, shoot on site any
• 46:17
  Speaker 4: of these folks caught. We were at sea pack in Dallas. Ryan,
• 46:21
  Speaker 4: last question for you, Yeah, that you know two groups.
• 46:25
  Speaker 4: There was a group of Iranians living in the United
• 46:28
  Speaker 4: States expats that were there in support of Resip Lavi
• 46:33
  Speaker 4: and his position. I guess he said he would work
• 46:37
  Speaker 4: as an intermediary to bring about a new regime. And
• 46:42
  Speaker 4: then there was the group supporting this government in exile
• 46:45
  Speaker 4: in Paris, Mariamjavi. You know, what do you know about
• 46:50
  Speaker 4: these two groups? And is there a tershiam quid as
• 46:53
  Speaker 4: I like to call it here as a group I'm
• 46:55
  Speaker 4: part of a third alternative as it were for Star
• 46:58
  Speaker 4: Trek fans hm hmm.
• 47:00
  Speaker 27: Yeah.
• 47:01
  Speaker 24: So so my understanding is that the three main groups
• 47:05
  Speaker 24: that would really be power players for you know.
• 47:12
  Speaker 4: Bryan, which you can hear me, yeah, right as you
• 47:16
  Speaker 4: started the meat of hit. So the three groups.
• 47:20
  Speaker 24: Are yeah, the three the three groups are the Iranian
• 47:24
  Speaker 24: Kurds uh kind of the monarchist you know types, you know,
• 47:31
  Speaker 24: the supporters of.
• 47:31
  Speaker 4: The Pilavi and all.
• 47:35
  Speaker 24: Okay, yeah, and then lusiadniakalk n e k which is
• 47:41
  Speaker 24: like a yeah, kind of Islamist socialist group that is
• 47:47
  Speaker 24: opposed to the the Shield leadership. They also have pretty
• 47:50
  Speaker 24: bad blood with the Shaw's family.
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: I guess we lost him there. Well, uh, they've got
• 48:05
  Speaker 4: two of the three. I guess the Mariam group is
• 48:09
  Speaker 4: the third one here. First thing today, Well thanks Ryan,
• 48:14
  Speaker 4: if you can still hear me, we can't hear you anymore.
• 48:17
  Speaker 4: The cell broke up on us. I know, I know
• 48:20
  Speaker 4: it's somebody saying you're don't talk to the Epic Times reporters.
• 48:24
  Speaker 4: They know things. That's why we talked to them. But
• 48:27
  Speaker 4: I appreciate it Ryan for your time out. Well yeah,
• 48:31
  Speaker 4: what was the third group before? Because you had the
• 48:34
  Speaker 4: two groups? Uh, and then there was a third one.
• 48:36
  Speaker 4: You said, is that the Mariam roj Avi government in
• 48:39
  Speaker 4: exile crowd? You know?
• 48:43
  Speaker 24: My the one I'm referring to is it was a
• 48:50
  Speaker 24: terrorist group or is designated.
• 48:57
  Speaker 4: It's it's like, you know, this isn't going to help
• 49:00
  Speaker 4: those in my audience who have conspiracy theories, uh and
• 49:03
  Speaker 4: pattern recognition software. Every time you try to tell us
• 49:07
  Speaker 4: one of these groups, that's when you're cell drops. Ryan.
• 49:10
  Speaker 4: But you know, text it to me and I'll read
• 49:14
  Speaker 4: it or something, but I appreciate it, sir, you have
• 49:16
  Speaker 4: a great morning E two four three four eight A
• 49:21
  Speaker 4: two four two one seven of Hey. You know what,
• 49:25
  Speaker 4: once you open the Epic Times show and maybe read
• 49:27
  Speaker 4: his column on it, you probably find the answer to it. Clark,
• 49:32
  Speaker 4: what do you.
• 49:33
  Speaker 27: Think conversation with Joel Joe was talking about the Iranians
• 49:37
  Speaker 27: driving up a gas prices, et cetera, et cetera, Joe.
• 49:41
  Speaker 27: When your goal is death to America, yeah, better expenditure.
• 49:47
  Speaker 27: Missiles are contributions in con to the Democrat Party.
• 49:51
  Speaker 4: Oh, b.
• 49:55
  Speaker 27: Ain't that something? No?
• 49:58
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's it's it's what the Soviet's new in
• 50:02
  Speaker 4: nineteen sixty six. Give give, give Wavy Gravy enough money.
• 50:08
  Speaker 4: You know, Wavy Gravy doesn't need as much money as
• 50:10
  Speaker 4: a missile defense program.
• 50:13
  Speaker 27: When your objective is death to America, best expenditure is
• 50:18
  Speaker 27: supporting a Democrat party.
• 50:20
  Speaker 4: Yep, easily, because we'll wait, we'll get mad at the missiles.
• 50:26
  Speaker 4: We don't get mad at the Democrats, at least most
• 50:28
  Speaker 4: of us don't, uh, although Virginia Democrats seem to have
• 50:31
  Speaker 4: turned on Abigail Spenberger pretty quickly. And we'll get into
• 50:34
  Speaker 4: that a little bit more in a little while.
• 50:38
  Speaker 27: Uh oh, you're under cover agent's in trouble.
• 50:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, our undercover cover mother has been caught out there
• 50:45
  Speaker 4: by too many people already. Forty three four eight eight
• 50:50
  Speaker 4: two four two one seven, uh is the number, and
• 50:55
  Speaker 4: you join in there. We have a minute or two
• 50:57
  Speaker 4: remaining here. And one of the Ryan's most recent pieces
• 51:02
  Speaker 4: scenarios were guarding boots on the ground. And as I've
• 51:05
  Speaker 4: said that, it's got to be about straight of horror moves.
• 51:10
  Speaker 4: If you don't establish a safe zone there, it's useless.
• 51:18
  Speaker 4: And this is the point of the order. This is
• 51:21
  Speaker 4: why I was asking about the civilians rising up, because they,
• 51:25
  Speaker 4: I think could be that force and this could be
• 51:29
  Speaker 4: you know, that foothold where they take their place defending
• 51:35
  Speaker 4: free trade and everything like that. But politically, you know,
• 51:41
  Speaker 4: as Clark mentioned, we're not going to get the support
• 51:44
  Speaker 4: for that because they want the gas prices higher. They
• 51:46
  Speaker 4: being the Marxists who want green energy China good of
• 51:52
  Speaker 4: veto keeping the straight of horror moves open because the
• 51:55
  Speaker 4: higher Europe's gas prices go, the more they buy Chinese
• 52:00
  Speaker 4: build electric cars, the more they built by Chinese built
• 52:08
  Speaker 4: solar panels. And in the laughable thing is we get blamed,
• 52:13
  Speaker 4: the president gets blamed for doing this for profit and
• 52:16
  Speaker 4: all of that stuff.
• 52:17
  Speaker 28: President, You've said Iranians would be mad if you stop
• 52:20
  Speaker 28: these attacks, But why would they want you to blow
• 52:23
  Speaker 28: up their infrastructure to cut off their power. Wouldn't that
• 52:26
  Speaker 28: be punishing Iranians for the actions of the regime.
• 52:29
  Speaker 29: They would be willing to just They would be willing
• 52:31
  Speaker 29: and it's suffering. They would be willing to suffer that
• 52:34
  Speaker 29: in order to have freedom the Iranians have. We've had
• 52:39
  Speaker 29: numerous intercepts, please keep bombing bombing.
• 52:43
  Speaker 4: So there you have it, sports fans from deep within.
• 52:45
  Speaker 4: So we'll see until tomorrow morning. I'm Joe Thomas, so
• 52:48
