- 0:00Speaker 1: You understand some of the Trump supporters can be critical
- 0:03Speaker 1: of things that are going on and saying, well, why
- 0:05Speaker 1: the 180 all of a sudden? And they point that
- 0:09Speaker 1: out when it when he changed in a blink of
- 0:11Speaker 1: an eye on the releasing Epstein files. And many of
- 0:15Speaker 1: the supporters were saying, well, wait a minute now. You
- 0:17Speaker 1: ran on it. This should all be out there and
- 0:19Speaker 1: not a two-tier system of justice. And then when it
- 0:23Speaker 1: came time, you started saying, no, you still dwell on that.
- 0:27Speaker 1: That's old news. All of a sudden, there was a
- 0:29Speaker 1: flip on your stance on the Epstein files, many of
- 0:32Speaker 1: the critics are saying, that supported Trump and are concerned
- 0:36Speaker 1: about it. Just like when he said you shouldn't get
- 0:38Speaker 1: bogged down in endless wars in the Middle East and
- 0:40Speaker 1: regime changes. I mean, just quoting Trump to Trump, you
- 0:44Speaker 1: can't get involved in these regime changes. We're not successful, Adam,
- 0:47Speaker 1: and get involved in these endless wars. And now many
- 0:51Speaker 1: of his supporters are saying now he's doing a 180
- 0:52Speaker 1: on that. 180 on Epstein, 180 on these endless wars.
- 0:57Speaker 1: When people are saying, well, wait a minute, you talked
- 0:59Speaker 1: about America first. You talked about getting these people out
- 1:02Speaker 1: of the country that were here illegally. You talked about inflation.
- 1:07Speaker 1: You were talking about all that stuff. And now everything's
- 1:11Speaker 1: been derailed and high energy prices are back and inflation's
- 1:14Speaker 1: back and this keeps dragging on and on and on.
- 1:22Speaker 1: So that's where things stand. News Radio 570 WQN. I mean,
- 1:27Speaker 1: that's where prior to these guys saying this stuff, how
- 1:30Speaker 1: many of you were staying up at night worried about
- 1:32Speaker 1: Iran and a nuclear weapon? I mean, with the bunker buster,
- 1:37Speaker 1: we took care of that. We dropped the bunker buster.
- 1:39Speaker 1: Whatever they had is buried in that mountain. There's nothing
- 1:42Speaker 1: more they can do with it. Well, they told us
- 1:50Speaker 1: that was the end of it. Then they said, well,
- 1:53Speaker 1: we dropped all these bombs and we've eliminated all the
- 1:55Speaker 1: manufacturing capabilities and the missile sites and we've destroyed all
- 1:59Speaker 1: of this kind of stuff. We got them on the
- 2:02Speaker 1: ropes and they'll be Basically, an agreement's eminence. We heard
- 2:11Speaker 1: that week after week after week after week, and nothing came.
- 2:15Speaker 1: And still there's nothing there. Now, I don't know why.
- 2:18Speaker 1: I don't know if they don't know who's in charge
- 2:21Speaker 1: or there's just confusion because of the chaos that's going
- 2:27Speaker 1: on in the country. Who knows? Or it's just their culture.
- 2:36Speaker 1: Is it their culture that says, well, wait a minute,
- 2:39Speaker 1: who are you, United States, to tell us we can't
- 2:41Speaker 1: have a nuclear weapon? Why is it okay for Israel
- 2:43Speaker 1: to have one? They're our enemy. Maybe we need to
- 2:46Speaker 1: have a nuclear weapon to be a deterrent like North Korea,
- 2:49Speaker 1: like Egypt, like Israel. To prevent them from attacking us.
- 2:57Speaker 1: To use it as a great nuclear... I can't even
- 3:02Speaker 1: say the words. a deterrence, to use it as a deterrence.
- 3:13Speaker 1: Just interesting perspectives to talk about all of this stuff
- 3:16Speaker 1: going on, but you go back to say what is
- 3:22Speaker 1: troubling is if this costs the midterms and the Democrats
- 3:27Speaker 1: get back in charge, everything that was positive comes to
- 3:30Speaker 1: a screeching halt. that has a direct effect on your
- 3:34Speaker 1: life right now. Because it is the economy and whether,
- 3:40Speaker 1: as I say to you, I can be critical of Trump,
- 3:43Speaker 1: but it'd be a cold day in hell before I'd
- 3:44Speaker 1: ever vote for a Democrat. I sure wouldn't vote for
- 3:46Speaker 1: Sherrod Brown. But unfortunately, a lot of people do. They say, okay,
- 3:50Speaker 1: I'm not happy with the situation. I'm voting for someone else.
- 3:53Speaker 1: And that is affected by inflation and gas prices. Look
- 3:56Speaker 1: what happened with Biden and the entire Democrat Party. When
- 4:00Speaker 1: they made excuses and people said, no, we're not living
- 4:03Speaker 1: like this. We can't survive. So now you're making it
- 4:07Speaker 1: worse and you don't think people will do that again?
- 4:12Speaker 1: And then for the next two years, nothing happens or
- 4:15Speaker 1: they reverse everything that he did? And he's just blocked
- 4:20Speaker 1: from doing things that can benefit all of us? Things
- 4:27Speaker 1: like what, Ron? Making us energy independent? some of the
- 4:33Speaker 1: economic policies. It certainly had the country going in the
- 4:36Speaker 1: right direction with oil prices down, gas prices down, inflation
- 4:43Speaker 1: coming down. All of that, all of that progress has
- 4:47Speaker 1: been totally reversed as a result of this situation. And
- 4:54Speaker 1: there's plenty of Trump supporters that are critical saying he
- 4:59Speaker 1: did this because he was talked into by Netanyahu in Israel.
- 5:04Speaker 1: And he was listening to that. He wasn't listening, perhaps,
- 5:07Speaker 1: to some of the critical voices within the administration. And
- 5:19Speaker 1: maybe he thought it'd be like another quick in and out.
- 5:25Speaker 1: Use the military, drop some weapons, they'll surrender and it'll
- 5:28Speaker 1: be done and over with. But it's a country of, what,
- 5:31Speaker 1: 93 million people and a much different philosophy. I wish
- 5:38Speaker 1: that it would materialize like they hope it did. We
- 5:41Speaker 1: drop the bombs. We finish with it. They make an agreement.
- 5:45Speaker 1: Everybody gets back to normal and business to normal. Now
- 5:49Speaker 1: I read where some of the folks are saying even
- 5:51Speaker 1: if you end this, that you have an oil shortage
- 5:54Speaker 1: going on, that it doesn't mean this idea that everything's
- 5:57Speaker 1: going to drop back to normal relatively quickly. Knowing that
- 6:06Speaker 1: the vast majority of you weren't paying attention to Iran
- 6:09Speaker 1: and weren't staying up at night worried about a nuclear
- 6:11Speaker 1: threat from Iran. At all. It wasn't the number one
- 6:18Speaker 1: thing on your radar screen. What was probably on your
- 6:21Speaker 1: radar screen was inflation. How expensive everything was. Energy. That
- 6:27Speaker 1: was the number one thing on your radar screen, and
- 6:29Speaker 1: it should be. Because that's having a direct effect on
- 6:32Speaker 1: your life and your retirement right now. Well, things can
- 6:38Speaker 1: also get a lot worse. I mean, if you follow this,
- 6:45Speaker 1: I mean, there's genuine concern for American farmers and not
- 6:48Speaker 1: just American other farmers because of the cost of fertilizer
- 6:51Speaker 1: once again and a shortage of fertilizer. So there's concern
- 6:57Speaker 1: about that and the survivability of American farmers. There's concern
- 7:01Speaker 1: about people starving and maybe people don't care in Africa
- 7:04Speaker 1: and this kind of stuff because of the lack of
- 7:07Speaker 1: fertilizer and what's happening here or the situation in other
- 7:11Speaker 1: countries and how this can turn into a global mess
- 7:15Speaker 1: that can have ramifications. Just put it out there. You're
- 7:19Speaker 1: on the air.
- 7:22Speaker 2: Whoa. I've got to tell you something, man. Well, first
- 7:28Speaker 2: of all, that's not why I called you. But first
- 7:31Speaker 2: of all, the Israelis took out a whole bunch of
- 7:33Speaker 2: leaders with exploding cell phones, so we don't even know
- 7:36Speaker 2: what to get them.
- 7:38Speaker 1: Remember that, the exploding pagers.
- 7:40Speaker 2: Well, we don't. But the great thing about your show
- 7:46Speaker 2: is it's different slices of America. And I disagree with
- 7:54Speaker 2: all three of your callers, including JJ and Rich, right,
- 7:57Speaker 2: in this last caller. And I disagree with you because
- 8:02Speaker 2: you guys, I believe some people are starting to watch
- 8:04Speaker 2: Minus Touch Network now. You guys are close, but you
- 8:07Speaker 2: really don't get it. You say all the time, Ron,
- 8:10Speaker 2: you used to say, how come Clinton don't show up?
- 8:14Speaker 2: How come Clinton don't show up? Well, now you're saying,
- 8:16Speaker 2: I will not vote for no Democrat, no matter what.
- 8:20Speaker 2: So the question I'm going to ask you before I
- 8:22Speaker 2: get to the rest of the people, right? So you're
- 8:24Speaker 2: telling me that a Republican that's running and he has
- 8:28Speaker 2: connections to Epstein Island, you will vote for him instead
- 8:32Speaker 2: of a Democrat?
- 8:34Speaker 1: I will not vote for a Democrat. If you're asking
- 8:37Speaker 1: me would I vote for John Husted or Sherrod Brown,
- 8:39Speaker 1: I'll vote for John.
- 8:40Speaker 2: I'm not asking you that.
- 8:40Speaker 1: Well, I'm going to answer your question because that's the
- 8:42Speaker 1: vote I have. I'll vote for John Husted in the
- 8:45Speaker 1: blink of an eye. Absolutely. Under no circumstances will I
- 8:49Speaker 1: vote for the craziness of a Democrat who believes in
- 8:52Speaker 1: open borders, who believes men can have babies, who believes
- 8:55Speaker 1: in this transgender nonsense. and who believes the answer is
- 8:58Speaker 1: higher taxes and more government. Under no circumstances, I'll make
- 9:02Speaker 1: it perfectly clear, will I vote for a Democrat with
- 9:05Speaker 1: those philosophies, mainly Sherrod Brown, because that's the choice I'll have.
- 9:11Speaker 1: I will not vote for him at all because he
- 9:15Speaker 1: supported everything Biden did.
- 9:16Speaker 2: I respect that. Now to get to the last caller, right?
- 9:21Speaker 2: You know, just like when I call you, Ron, I
- 9:25Speaker 2: know your listeners get a pencil and a piece of paper,
- 9:27Speaker 2: and I know they fact-check me. Now, first of all,
- 9:31Speaker 2: I could be wrong, but I believe it was President
- 9:35Speaker 2: Trump who signed a peace agreement with the Taliban, and
- 9:41Speaker 2: he said we will be out by a certain date.
- 9:44Speaker 1: Oh, you're going back to Afghanistan. That's total nonsense as well.
- 9:49Speaker 1: Trump was out of office, Biden was in, Biden directed
- 9:52Speaker 1: it all, and Biden blew it.
- 9:53Speaker 2: Okay, okay.
- 9:54Speaker 1: I mean, i mean you know i can sit here
- 9:56Speaker 1: and honest to god you know i can sit here
- 9:58Speaker 1: and i can be critical of this situation with trump
- 10:01Speaker 1: but you lack the ability to honestly look and say
- 10:04Speaker 1: well you know biden was president i'm not letting trump
- 10:06Speaker 1: i'm not letting trump get off on this and.
- 10:09Speaker 2: Rich rich the farmers farmers he really he's a smart
- 10:15Speaker 2: guy right But he really, truly, and the three of
- 10:19Speaker 2: y'all don't get it, right? Now, first of all, I
- 10:22Speaker 2: told you and G2 about Ukraine a long time ago
- 10:26Speaker 2: when they were talking about 90-year-olds and teenagers, right? They
- 10:29Speaker 2: were fighting a different type of war. Remember me and
- 10:31Speaker 2: you talked about AI way back then? You know, soldiers
- 10:36Speaker 2: that are like robots. But the deal is with this,
- 10:41Speaker 2: I don't believe that the Israelis... are behind Donald Trump
- 10:48Speaker 2: bombing Iran. I think just like Venezuela, when the pressure
- 10:55Speaker 2: from the Epstein files gets so tight, he diverted to
- 10:58Speaker 2: something else. That's just my opinion. Now, what were you
- 11:03Speaker 2: saying about Biden? I can agree. Go ahead. What did
- 11:04Speaker 2: you say about Biden?
- 11:09Speaker 1: Oh, so you think that this is a distraction over
- 11:12Speaker 1: the Epstein files? I don't believe that for a second.
- 11:17Speaker 2: Well, MGT said that. But what I'm saying is, now,
- 11:20Speaker 2: what is it about Biden that you don't like about
- 11:22Speaker 2: me and Biden? Go ahead.
- 11:25Speaker 1: There's nothing I like about Biden and the Biden administration.
- 11:27Speaker 2: No, about me liking Biden. Why is it you think that?
- 11:31Speaker 1: No, I said you lack the ability to be critical
- 11:33Speaker 1: of Biden. See, as I say, I'm not a cheerleader
- 11:37Speaker 1: for the Republicans or the Democrats. So I can sit
- 11:41Speaker 1: here and I can tell you that I voted for
- 11:42Speaker 1: Trump three times. I'd vote for him again. In general,
- 11:45Speaker 1: I like him as president. That doesn't mean I have
- 11:47Speaker 1: to agree with everything he does. I do not agree
- 11:50Speaker 1: with him when he attacks his supporters that helped him
- 11:53Speaker 1: get elected. I don't care if it's Marjorie Taylor Greene.
- 11:55Speaker 1: I don't care if it's Tucker Carlson. I don't care
- 11:58Speaker 1: if it's Candace Owens. I don't care if it's Tom
- 12:02Speaker 1: Massey or any of these other people that's backed his agenda,
- 12:07Speaker 1: supported him, helped get him elected, but because they disagree
- 12:11Speaker 1: with him on some issues, all of a sudden they're
- 12:13Speaker 1: low IQ or they're bad people. I don't agree with
- 12:16Speaker 1: that with him at all. I don't think that's a
- 12:18Speaker 1: good trait at all because basically his philosophy is if
- 12:22Speaker 1: you don't think exactly like me and agree with me
- 12:24Speaker 1: all the time, then you're nothing. You're a piece of crap. Well,
- 12:28Speaker 1: sometimes you can be wrong, and sometimes you have to
- 12:32Speaker 1: listen to others' opinions and advice that might no more
- 12:35Speaker 1: warn you before you make the final decision. I think
- 12:40Speaker 1: he lacks that ability. And he turns, I don't care
- 12:44Speaker 1: for how he turns on these people and the things
- 12:47Speaker 1: he says about them when they were staunch. Marjorie Taylor
- 12:50Speaker 1: Greene was one of his earliest supporters ever on backing Trump.
- 12:57Speaker 1: But because she disagreed with Trump on the Epstein files
- 13:00Speaker 1: and thought that he chickened out on it, And she
- 13:04Speaker 1: disagreed with him on this situation as far as Iran
- 13:07Speaker 1: is concerned. All of a sudden, she's no good. Well,
- 13:11Speaker 1: she was there from the very beginning. And she thinks
- 13:14Speaker 1: that something stinks when it comes to the Epstein files
- 13:17Speaker 1: and not getting released and not doing what you campaigned on.
- 13:21Speaker 1: And she thinks something's terribly wrong with you being against
- 13:24Speaker 1: regime change and getting involved in the Middle East. And
- 13:26Speaker 1: you change totally on that. And you drop the American
- 13:29Speaker 1: first agenda. which is of concern to Massey, which is
- 13:34Speaker 1: of concern to other Republicans.
- 13:40Speaker 2: Mike Johnson.
- 13:41Speaker 1: Well, not Mike Johnson, but other Republicans that you insult.
- 13:47Speaker 1: or people that supported you. Tucker Carlson was on stage
- 13:52Speaker 1: helping you get elected. All of a sudden now, because
- 13:55Speaker 1: he disagrees with you, he's low IQ. Well, was he
- 13:57Speaker 1: low IQ when he was supporting you for president? I mean,
- 14:00Speaker 1: I just don't find that an admirable quality. You lack
- 14:04Speaker 1: the ability to hear input from people who totally disagree.
- 14:07Speaker 1: disagree with you on an issue, but they agree with
- 14:10Speaker 1: you overall. So why would you... Yeah, why would you
- 14:15Speaker 1: insult him like that? I don't care for that. I'm
- 14:17Speaker 1: not going to sit here and say, I think that's
- 14:19Speaker 1: a good trait of Trump's. I do not think it's
- 14:21Speaker 1: a good trait of his at all. I can only
- 14:25Speaker 1: give you my thoughts and opinion. I believe he got
- 14:28Speaker 1: involved in this because of Netanyahu and Israel. And I
- 14:32Speaker 1: think that's why he got involved in this situation. And
- 14:36Speaker 1: I think he's misread this situation at this point in time.
- 14:41Speaker 2: OK, now you talk about trans.
- 14:42Speaker 1: And now you can't say that about Afghanistan. You want
- 14:45Speaker 1: to say, oh, Afghanistan and a lousy withdrawal from Afghanistan
- 14:50Speaker 1: is a fault of Trump. That was Biden was president.
- 14:53Speaker 2: I've been in Afghanistan a long time ago.
- 14:57Speaker 1: It was Democrats.
- 14:58Speaker 2: They dropped the ball. And me personally, me personally, I
- 15:02Speaker 2: never told you this before.
- 15:04Speaker 1: Oh, I want to hear this. Go ahead. I'm listening.
- 15:06Speaker 2: Me personally, right? And a lot of people disagree with
- 15:11Speaker 2: Biden on this.
- 15:12Speaker 1: Hold on, I want to hear this. Let me do
- 15:13Speaker 1: my commercials. I definitely want to hear this. Because you
- 15:16Speaker 1: never told me this before, but I want to hear it.
- 15:18Speaker 1: What is Emmanuel going to tell me that he's never
- 15:20Speaker 1: told me before? You know, I'm sitting on the edge
- 15:29Speaker 1: of my seat. What are you going to tell me
- 15:31Speaker 1: that I thought I would never hear you say?
- 15:33Speaker 2: Well, first of all, you have to deal with reality, okay?
- 15:37Speaker 3: Yes.
- 15:39Speaker 2: Okay. Now, I'm starting off this, but I'm going to
- 15:41Speaker 2: end up telling you what I don't like two things
- 15:43Speaker 2: about Joe Biden. Okay?
- 15:47Speaker 1: I'm listening. I'm all ears.
- 15:48Speaker 2: Number one, when Donald Trump was president, he signed a
- 15:53Speaker 2: piece of paper saying that he's going to leave by
- 15:55Speaker 2: a certain date. Remember that?
- 16:00Speaker 1: Doesn't matter what he did.
- 16:02Speaker 2: Do you remember that?
- 16:04Speaker 1: No.
- 16:06Speaker 2: Then, well, okay. It really don't make any sense. Okay, Ron,
- 16:10Speaker 2: if you don't remember that, then..
- 16:12Speaker 1: No, no, no. Here's what the problem is. Joe Biden
- 16:16Speaker 1: was president. He could leave Afghanistan whenever he wanted.
- 16:20Speaker 2: Not true.
- 16:20Speaker 1: That's very much true.
- 16:22Speaker 2: Not true. Okay, I'm going to tell you why. That's
- 16:24Speaker 2: what pissed me off about him. That's what really pissed
- 16:27Speaker 2: me off about Joe Biden.
- 16:30Speaker 4: Boy..
- 16:32Speaker 2: I'm telling you, but you ain't listening. Donald Trump, when
- 16:36Speaker 2: he was president, the date that he said that the
- 16:39Speaker 2: United States was going to leave, he wasn't president then.
- 16:42Speaker 2: He thought he was going to win again. So the
- 16:45Speaker 2: day comes for the United States to pull out, that
- 16:48Speaker 2: Donald Trump agreed to, Joe Biden said, okay, he was
- 16:53Speaker 2: the president. If the president of the United States said
- 16:56Speaker 2: we're leaving on this day, that's the day we're leaving.
- 16:58Speaker 2: He shouldn't have left. He should have waited. And did
- 17:03Speaker 2: it the right way. But he was so, so stuck
- 17:06Speaker 2: up with America telling the truth and America being such
- 17:09Speaker 2: a bright, shining star that he let the soldiers down.
- 17:14Speaker 2: The second thing. January 6th. Didn't handle it right. That's
- 17:24Speaker 2: all I got to say. Now, you cannot say ever again.
- 17:31Speaker 2: that I couldn't find nothing wrong with Joe Biden. And
- 17:34Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you another thing you can't say.
- 17:36Speaker 2: Whether you are trans, whether you're tampons, or whatever, whoever
- 17:42Speaker 2: you sleep with has nothing to do with the damn economy. Bye, Ron.
- 17:49Speaker 1: Goodbye. You're on air.
- 17:51Speaker 5: Yeah, I was just calling in to talk about Iran
- 17:55Speaker 5: a little bit, and there's a signing in Warren. This
- 17:59Speaker 5: Friday from 5 to 7 for property tax at Urban
- 18:03Speaker 5: Tap and Distillery. That's on 439 East Market Street. I
- 18:08Speaker 5: think Trump is just trying to do something that no
- 18:10Speaker 5: one's ever done, and that's deal with Iran, which is
- 18:13Speaker 5: a state sponsor of terror. You know, I mean, the
- 18:16Speaker 5: way Obama dealt with it is he gave them gold
- 18:19Speaker 5: bars and foreign currency. So Trump is like not going
- 18:22Speaker 5: to do that. He's trying to do the right thing.
- 18:25Speaker 5: I trust him. I don't know. I am a cheerleader
- 18:27Speaker 5: for Trump, so I really trust his judgment. And ever
- 18:31Speaker 5: since he came down the escalator in 2015, he's just
- 18:34Speaker 5: done everything, you know, for America. You know, he's never
- 18:38Speaker 5: done anything to hurt America. So if we have a
- 18:41Speaker 5: little bit of pain with inflation for a time, I mean,
- 18:44Speaker 5: I think that we're spoiled if we can't get through that.
- 18:48Speaker 5: for something so important as dealing with a state sponsor
- 18:51Speaker 5: of terror.
- 18:52Speaker 1: Well stated. Thank you for your inputs. All right, back
- 18:56Speaker 1: in a minute. Callers in line, stand by. News Radio
- 18:59Speaker 1: 570 WKVN. Well, I don't know where that comes from
- 19:03Speaker 1: because the Guardians won this afternoon, so that's outdated. News
- 19:05Speaker 1: Radio 570 WKVN, 534. Rod Verb, News Radio 570 WKVN,
- 19:11Speaker 1: 58 degrees. How about Emmanuel? I think I pushed him
- 19:13Speaker 1: right over the edge today. I think I got him
- 19:16Speaker 1: right over the edge. I mean, he was... He was
- 19:20Speaker 1: right on the edge. Emmanuel, my point with that is,
- 19:25Speaker 1: the lesson of Afghanistan, the lessons of the Middle East,
- 19:31Speaker 1: what did all of those, and I can go back
- 19:34Speaker 1: to Vietnam and talk about that, what did all of
- 19:36Speaker 1: those people die for in Afghanistan? When you see the
- 19:40Speaker 1: commercials on television of the disfigured American soldiers, people that
- 19:46Speaker 1: have lost arms and legs or paralyzed or severely burned
- 19:50Speaker 1: and disfigured, and those that are dead in Afghanistan. What
- 19:57Speaker 1: was the point of that sacrifice that all those families
- 20:01Speaker 1: made and all those individuals made when the dust settled,
- 20:04Speaker 1: you gave it back to the terrorists and in better
- 20:07Speaker 1: shape than when you took it and left all the
- 20:09Speaker 1: equipment behind. That was Joe Biden. Those were his decisions,
- 20:16Speaker 1: not Trump, his decisions on how he executed that. So,
- 20:24Speaker 1: but outside of whether it's Biden or Trump or whoever
- 20:26Speaker 1: you want to blame, that really isn't the point. The
- 20:28Speaker 1: point is, what about the human sacrifices that America made?
- 20:34Speaker 1: And when the dust settled, it was given right back
- 20:36Speaker 1: to the terrorists. Were we successful at anything, really, in
- 20:40Speaker 1: the Middle East? Just ask yourself that question. Because, you know,
- 20:51Speaker 1: these things were orchestrated by Victoria Nuland and regime change
- 20:55Speaker 1: and the neocons. And were we successful at it? Did
- 21:00Speaker 1: we change things? Well, it certainly is debatable. But do
- 21:13Speaker 1: you learn from your mistakes or do you repeat them?
- 21:19Speaker 1: It can be hard to defeat an enemy when they
- 21:22Speaker 1: are fighting in their land, in their homeland, in their territory,
- 21:25Speaker 1: and it's not yours. You could go back and look
- 21:31Speaker 1: at Vietnam. And remember what they were saying, Vietnam, the
- 21:36Speaker 1: domino effect, you got to stop it, communism, all of
- 21:39Speaker 1: this stuff that they were saying about Vietnam. Well, it
- 21:43Speaker 1: didn't go, it wasn't a success. And we lost 70,000
- 21:48Speaker 1: people and many soldiers with issues as a result of
- 21:56Speaker 1: being in Vietnam, whether that's drug abuse or mental problems
- 21:59Speaker 1: or disfigurements or death. Was it worth it? Was it
- 22:07Speaker 1: really worth it? Because when the dust settled, we left.
- 22:14Speaker 1: And perhaps we thought it would be easy because, well,
- 22:18Speaker 1: we're the United States, but it's their homeland. It's where
- 22:20Speaker 1: they live. And they know you don't live there and
- 22:25Speaker 1: sooner or later you're going to leave. I think that
- 22:32Speaker 1: wasn't that supposedly the lesson of Vietnam? And people wanted
- 22:37Speaker 1: out of there. And do you repeat that lesson when
- 22:42Speaker 1: you see it in the Middle East? I don't believe
- 22:51Speaker 1: you'll ever get those people in the Middle East to
- 22:53Speaker 1: think like we do. It is a different part of
- 22:56Speaker 1: the world. It is a different culture. It is totally
- 22:59Speaker 1: different thinking. Many of them that come here don't assimilate
- 23:03Speaker 1: into this country, go to Dearborn, Michigan. They believe in
- 23:08Speaker 1: their culture and their views and they think you should change.
- 23:12Speaker 1: And ultimately their goal is to take over America. Perhaps.
- 23:18Speaker 1: Some say. So if many that come here aren't willing
- 23:25Speaker 1: to change to be like Americans, what makes you think
- 23:27Speaker 1: they're going to change over there with your thinking? I'm
- 23:31Speaker 1: sure there's some. But they think differently than we do.
- 23:37Speaker 1: They come from a different background, a different culture. It's
- 23:44Speaker 1: hard for us to understand. They just view things differently.
- 23:48Speaker 1: It's just a different part of the world. And so
- 23:58Speaker 1: the critics of of Trump are merely saying, what brought
- 24:02Speaker 1: all of this on? What caused all of these swivelhead
- 24:06Speaker 1: changes on Epstein? Oh, that's yesterday's news. No, you ran
- 24:10Speaker 1: on that and putting that out there and you disappointed
- 24:13Speaker 1: a lot of people who voted for you and supported
- 24:15Speaker 1: you on that. Well, you ran and you said you
- 24:21Speaker 1: were against regime change and getting involved in endless wars
- 24:24Speaker 1: in the Middle East and what have you. And here
- 24:26Speaker 1: you are now involved in something like this that keeps
- 24:29Speaker 1: dragging on. That's creating the same problems that you were
- 24:36Speaker 1: voted to fix when Biden was in office. Inflation, high
- 24:39Speaker 1: energy prices. The American first agenda. But yet, as I say,
- 24:52Speaker 1: when you've got people that support Trump overall that aren't
- 24:55Speaker 1: cheerleaders for him and they speak out against it. Tucker
- 25:00Speaker 1: Carlson's the best example. Always low IQ Tucker. Well, was
- 25:03Speaker 1: he low IQ Tucker when he was on stage campaigning
- 25:05Speaker 1: for you and on the campaign circuit with you? Or
- 25:08Speaker 1: is he only a low IQ Tucker because he disagrees
- 25:11Speaker 1: with you on some of these issues? So unless you
- 25:14Speaker 1: totally agree with everything you do, you can't disagree with anything.
- 25:18Speaker 1: Unless you totally agree with everything, that's the only... way
- 25:22Speaker 1: that you see it? As I said, to attack Marjorie
- 25:26Speaker 1: Taylor Greene is disturbing to me, since she was one
- 25:29Speaker 1: of your earliest supporters, and to say the vicious things
- 25:32Speaker 1: that you said about her, or Tucker Carlson, or Thomas Massey.
- 25:39Speaker 1: Because we were the first ones to be critical of
- 25:42Speaker 1: when they wanted to censor speech on the social media
- 25:44Speaker 1: platforms where you couldn't express a difference opinion than what
- 25:49Speaker 1: was put out there by the Biden administration when it
- 25:51Speaker 1: came to COVID. And certainly I was critical of it,
- 25:54Speaker 1: and I'm critical of it to this day, and I'll
- 25:56Speaker 1: be critical of it if I see the Republicans trying
- 25:58Speaker 1: to do the same damn thing. People have a right
- 26:07Speaker 1: to express their opinion, whether... You agree with it or
- 26:10Speaker 1: disagree with it on social media, whether it suits any
- 26:14Speaker 1: lobbyist group or other countries, they can express their thoughts
- 26:18Speaker 1: and their opinions in our great country. And they can
- 26:25Speaker 1: still like the president, vote for the president, vote for
- 26:27Speaker 1: the party and disagree with him on some issues. And speculate,
- 26:37Speaker 1: why did we get involved in this? What happened here?
- 26:40Speaker 1: Why did this start? Speculate whether or not he thought
- 26:44Speaker 1: this would be over sooner than it is. Or would
- 26:48Speaker 1: it end much quicker than it seems to be dragging on.
- 26:56Speaker 1: But I don't want to fall in it. When I
- 26:57Speaker 1: was critical of Biden, oh, it's all transitory. Janet Yellen
- 27:00Speaker 1: saying that crap, and it was nothing like that. And
- 27:02Speaker 1: they seem to be totally out of touch trying to
- 27:04Speaker 1: sell everybody on, don't worry about the inflation. Everything's great.
- 27:09Speaker 1: And what did they say? Look at the stock market.
- 27:11Speaker 1: And the stock market was doing well. But for the
- 27:18Speaker 1: longest period of time, there is a disconnect between Wall
- 27:20Speaker 1: Street and Main Street. There always has been. And I
- 27:25Speaker 1: think there always will be. A lot of times when
- 27:28Speaker 1: companies cut thousands of jobs, the stock goes up, but
- 27:32Speaker 1: a lot of people's lives are devastated. So it's something
- 27:39Speaker 1: worth mulling over. I mean, like, that's why I say
- 27:42Speaker 1: to people, I said to Emanuel, just because I'm critical
- 27:45Speaker 1: of Trump, do you think I would vote for Sherrod Brown?
- 27:47Speaker 1: I'd have to have my head examined. Or any Democrats.
- 27:52Speaker 1: I'd still vote for the Republicans. Because in general, I
- 27:55Speaker 1: agree with the majority of the direction the country's going.
- 27:58Speaker 1: I get frustrated with the right of Republicans like Mike DeWine.
- 28:06Speaker 1: He's frustrating and a disappointment. So just because he's a Republican,
- 28:12Speaker 1: should we not point that out and express that? We've
- 28:14Speaker 1: got to have a team mentality? Well, that's ridiculous. We
- 28:17Speaker 1: saw that with the Democrats, and I'm not about to
- 28:19Speaker 1: go down that road. You're on the air.
- 28:27Speaker 4: We bombed North Korea and North Vietnam into the Stone Age,
- 28:33Speaker 4: and they refused to surrender. And who was that lady
- 28:37Speaker 4: that just called, Ron?
- 28:39Speaker 1: Denise.
- 28:41Speaker 4: Was that Denise?
- 28:42Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 28:44Speaker 1: No, I don't think so. No, it was Denise or
- 28:48Speaker 1: it could have been the nephew. It's the oldest joke
- 28:52Speaker 1: in the world. Let me try it. Frank, hang on. Frank,
- 28:54Speaker 1: let me try it again. Now listen to me, okay?
- 28:58Speaker 1: Throw me a bone here. I think it was Denise,
- 29:00Speaker 1: but it could have been a nephew. Oh, Jesus.
- 29:07Speaker 4: I can't imagine her supporting the war in Iran. But
- 29:10Speaker 4: whoever it was, you know what I want to say
- 29:13Speaker 4: to her? When you enlist in the military and go
- 29:17Speaker 4: fight in the Persian Gulf, then I'll take you seriously.
- 29:21Speaker 4: Israel is committing genocide against Muslims and Christians. Do you
- 29:25Speaker 4: want to bomb them? Now, here's what I say to Emmanuel.
- 29:30Speaker 4: It takes a lot of money to run a political campaign,
- 29:34Speaker 4: and I think the Republicans will win the midterms. The Republicans...
- 29:40Speaker 4: National Committee has no debt, and as of March, they
- 29:45Speaker 4: have almost $ 117 million in cash on hand. The DNC
- 29:50Speaker 4: has about $ 13. 9 million cash on hand, but with $ 18. 4
- 29:58Speaker 4: million in debts and loans that they owe. The DNC
- 30:02Speaker 4: is broke, and you can't win a political campaign without
- 30:09Speaker 4: tons of money. Now, I want to talk about corruption, too.
- 30:15Speaker 4: Forbes Financial says that no first family has used the
- 30:19Speaker 4: office to make as much money as Donald Trump's. Trump's
- 30:23Speaker 4: net worth has now surged to $ 6. 5 billion. and his
- 30:28Speaker 4: enrichment includes being paid off for granting licensing deals, getting
- 30:34Speaker 4: bribed for ensuring favorable legal outcomes, and bribed by foreign
- 30:39Speaker 4: business interests demanding proximity to presidential power. And Trump's family
- 30:45Speaker 4: now has a collective net worth of $ 10 billion. And meanwhile, Ron,
- 30:52Speaker 4: medical research is being slashed, as I've told you, I've
- 30:56Speaker 4: told you job training is being slashed, environmental protections ended,
- 31:02Speaker 4: disaster relief funds raided, and home heating assistance and welfare
- 31:08Speaker 4: for the poorest Americans are being slashed. And you know what?
- 31:13Speaker 4: Let me quote Richard Painter, a former White House ethics
- 31:18Speaker 4: lawyer under George Bush. He says foreign countries are under
- 31:23Speaker 4: enormous pressure to buy from Trump's sons, and then he'll
- 31:27Speaker 4: grant their request if they do that. This is the
- 31:31Speaker 4: first presidential family to make a fortune off war, and
- 31:36Speaker 4: Trump announced at an Easter luncheon that we can't take
- 31:40Speaker 4: care of Medicare, Medicaid, and daycare, that the states will
- 31:45Speaker 4: have to do that now. And I say that Trump
- 31:48Speaker 4: is stealing from the poor and giving to the rich.
- 31:52Speaker 4: And he's also spending enormous amounts of money to expand
- 31:56Speaker 4: the police state. And, you know, not only Trump's popularity ratings,
- 32:03Speaker 4: you know, Melody Trump is now the most despised first
- 32:08Speaker 4: lady in history. She makes Hillary Clinton look popular in comparison.
- 32:13Speaker 4: Trump's crypto coin is down 80%. But, you know, I
- 32:20Speaker 4: give you credit. Trump is trapped in another endless war
- 32:24Speaker 4: that Netanyahu will not allow him to extricate himself from,
- 32:28Speaker 4: just like you said. And just like you said, the
- 32:31Speaker 4: Israeli lobby is the most powerful force in American politics,
- 32:37Speaker 4: and they are bankrupting our country, and the killing and
- 32:40Speaker 4: maiming of our brave men and women is of no
- 32:44Speaker 4: concern to them. You know, we're just cannon fodder and
- 32:48Speaker 4: dead slaves. And I would like to appeal to your
- 32:51Speaker 4: superior wisdom in allowing me the honor of speaking on
- 32:56Speaker 4: behalf of the majority of your listeners. I would like
- 33:00Speaker 4: to invite members of the military or their wives or
- 33:05Speaker 4: husbands or relatives to call your show and tell us
- 33:08Speaker 4: what they think of the war.
- 33:10Speaker 1: Well, you just heard a guy earlier that was in Iraq,
- 33:13Speaker 1: and he supports it. I mean, so there's differing views
- 33:17Speaker 1: that people have on it.
- 33:20Speaker 4: Well, I'm talking about not guys that were in Iraq,
- 33:24Speaker 4: because I talked to guys that were in Iraq myself.
- 33:28Speaker 4: But the people in the military now, you know, I
- 33:34Speaker 4: would like to know, because our Zionist-owned and controlled media
- 33:39Speaker 4: never interviews them or asks their opinions or show their
- 33:44Speaker 4: grieving widows or widowers, their sons and daughters. You know,
- 33:52Speaker 4: I want to know if they think that their brothers
- 33:54Speaker 4: and sisters, fathers and mothers died for a just cause,
- 33:58Speaker 4: or if they think they died in vain. I'm not
- 34:02Speaker 4: like John Arnold or Rich the pharmacist. I don't measure
- 34:06Speaker 4: my success by the amount of money I've made or
- 34:10Speaker 4: the number of girlfriends I've had or the number of
- 34:13Speaker 4: expensive homes I've owned or the cars I drive. I
- 34:17Speaker 4: measure my success by the number of people I've fed,
- 34:21Speaker 4: by charitable contributions, of the number of animals I've rescued,
- 34:26Speaker 4: of the people I've helped through my charitable donations. And,
- 34:33Speaker 4: you know, I used to volunteer at animal shelters, you know,
- 34:39Speaker 4: cleaning the litter boxes and feeding them. And my girlfriend
- 34:43Speaker 4: works for a charitable organization that helps feed people in need.
- 34:50Speaker 1: And now, look, your young girlfriend now, instead of cleaning
- 34:53Speaker 1: the litter boxes, now has to deal with changing your diaper.
- 34:56Speaker 4: Yeah, and she's getting pretty tired of it, Ron.
- 35:02Speaker 3: All right.
- 35:03Speaker 1: Fort Lauderdale, Frank.
- 35:04Speaker 2: Thanks.
- 35:04Speaker 1: Appreciate it. You're on the air. Hello.
- 35:08Speaker 6: Ron, how about them Zionist Jews, though, huh? Come on, Frankie. Anyhow,
- 35:16Speaker 6: I called to go on this rant almost, but I
- 35:20Speaker 6: think your lovely wife should look into your chronic cough, Ronnie.
- 35:25Speaker 6: You're talking about the baby aspirin.
- 35:27Speaker 1: Sometimes I think it's this iced tea that I'm drinking
- 35:31Speaker 1: right here. I got it today when I had lunch.
- 35:35Speaker 1: That's the one I sent you, right? That, yes, that
- 35:40Speaker 1: mysterious iced tea. It tastes like antifreeze.
- 35:43Speaker 2: Yes, yes.
- 35:44Speaker 6: That's a new flavor gone.
- 35:46Speaker 1: Is that it? You told me it was like Mountain
- 35:49Speaker 1: Dew-like iced tea.
- 35:50Speaker 6: And you enjoy it sooner or later.
- 35:53Speaker 1: Yeah, sometimes it makes me, sometimes I get a tickle
- 35:56Speaker 1: in my throat as a result, and I have to cough.
- 35:59Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 36:00Speaker 6: Hey, the baby aspirin thing, though, I just want to
- 36:03Speaker 6: warn people that don't give aspirins to babies. The babies,
- 36:07Speaker 6: children under 12 should.
- 36:08Speaker 2: Not have aspirin.
- 36:10Speaker 1: All right. I'm talking adults, yes.
- 36:13Speaker 6: Yeah, I know. So maybe, you know, a lot of
- 36:16Speaker 6: kids listen to this show, Ronnie.
- 36:18Speaker 1: Listen, a guy like you at your age should probably have,
- 36:22Speaker 1: be carrying those chewable baby aspirin in your, where is it?
- 36:25Speaker 1: Wait a second. Watch this. You see this, pal? Wait
- 36:28Speaker 1: a minute. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. There it is.
- 36:34Speaker 1: There it is. Now, right, right here. As she makes
- 36:36Speaker 1: me carry this, I got them all over the place.
- 36:40Speaker 1: Like I said, my wife says, hey, you know, you
- 36:42Speaker 1: should always have, let's see, it's bare, chewable, 81 milligram aspirin.
- 36:50Speaker 1: And she writes on it, chew for... Chew for take
- 36:56Speaker 1: with chest pain. Call 911. She writes it right on
- 36:59Speaker 1: the thing. You know, you chew them, you don't swallow them,
- 37:02Speaker 1: put them under your tongue, and you might live as
- 37:04Speaker 1: a result of it. Now, wait a minute.
- 37:06Speaker 2: Hang on.
- 37:07Speaker 1: I got a break. Just sit tight. I'll be right
- 37:09Speaker 1: back to you in a minute. The Year. News Radio
- 37:13Speaker 1: 570 WKBN. All right. Sometimes I have to take these
- 37:20Speaker 1: baby aspirin after I get done talking to you.
- 37:24Speaker 6: Well, Ronnie, my PSA, public service announcement, is don't give
- 37:29Speaker 6: aspirins to babies. I mean, I know you're one of
- 37:33Speaker 6: the biggest babies on radio, but don't call them baby aspirins.
- 37:39Speaker 1: Now, you see, I'm trying to do a good thing
- 37:41Speaker 1: for you because you're a senior citizen. And so just
- 37:46Speaker 1: because your wife... My wife must actually care for me.
- 37:51Speaker 1: She doesn't want me to keel over even though I
- 37:52Speaker 1: don't have heart issues. You never know. But like she says, hey,
- 37:56Speaker 1: you never know if you have chest pain. Like she says,
- 37:59Speaker 1: carry these baby aspirin with you. I got them in
- 38:01Speaker 1: a car and all that kind of stuff. And chewable
- 38:04Speaker 1: ones and chew them under your tongue and put them
- 38:05Speaker 1: there that can save your life. And a guy told
- 38:08Speaker 1: me over the weekend, came up my driveway and said
- 38:10Speaker 1: he heard that, he did that, and it saved his life.
- 38:12Speaker 1: So I'm just trying to save your life to keep
- 38:14Speaker 1: you around. But you know what? I could almost hear it.
- 38:16Speaker 1: If I was there, let's say you're having heart pain, okay?
- 38:21Speaker 1: And I'm there. And I would want to get out
- 38:23Speaker 1: my baby aspirin and give them to you. You know,
- 38:25Speaker 1: I say, hey, unknown caller, here, chew these under your
- 38:29Speaker 1: tongue so that you'll be able to survive. You know
- 38:33Speaker 1: what you would say to me?
- 38:36Speaker 2: No, what?
- 38:38Speaker 1: No, thanks. I got to go.
- 38:39Speaker 6: I want to talk about Emmanuel, though.
- 38:43Speaker 1: Yes.
- 38:44Speaker 6: All right, so he was all fired up, and I
- 38:47Speaker 6: think he was mad at Joe Biden because he left
- 38:50Speaker 6: the military there to die, basically. So I think that's
- 38:55Speaker 6: why he got fired up. But then again, he did
- 38:58Speaker 6: vote for the guy who, him and Kamala were just actors. Obviously,
- 39:04Speaker 6: Biden wasn't running the country at that point in time,
- 39:08Speaker 6: and Kamala couldn't have did it. So who was running
- 39:11Speaker 6: the country and decided that we're going to pull out
- 39:14Speaker 6: Not by Trump's plans. You know, Trump, he was going
- 39:19Speaker 6: to keep the airports and that and make sure everything's smooth.
- 39:25Speaker 1: Hey, I gotta go.
- 39:32Speaker 3: From ABC News, I'm Michelle Branson. The summit in China
- 39:36Speaker 3: now just a few hours away. President Trump, members of
- 39:39Speaker 3: his cabinet, along with American CEOs, arrived in Beijing to
- 39:43Speaker 3: fanfare and calling on China to open up trade. The
- 39:47Speaker 3: ongoing war with Iran, though, could overshadow talks. ABC News
- 39:51Speaker 3: contributor and retired Colonel Stephen Gagnard says a breakthrough is unlikely.
- 39:55Speaker 7: China has a reason to help in Iran. Whether they
- 39:58Speaker 7: do or whether they have the power, that's another question.
- 40:01Speaker 7: Remember that they get 30 to 40 percent of their
- 40:03Speaker 7: oil coming through the Strait of Hormuz. 20 percent of
- 40:06Speaker 7: that is Iranian oil.
- 40:08Speaker 1: So they are going to be hurting.
- 40:09Speaker 7: And because they're an export-driven economy, they need the rest
- 40:12Speaker 7: of the world to be healthy. But because shutting down
- 40:14Speaker 7: the Strait has really created a global contagion.
- 40:17Speaker 3: The Federal Reserve has a new chair after a Senate
- 40:20Speaker 3: vote on Kevin Warsh today. Warsh tasked with tackling surging
- 40:24Speaker 3: inflation due to the war in Iran. The economic pressure
- 40:28Speaker 3: weighing on Americans, paying more for nearly everything, groceries, gas,
- 40:32Speaker 3: and energy. Health officials continue to monitor cruise ship passengers
- 40:36Speaker 3: evacuated due to the hantavirus outbreak. The majority are in
- 40:39Speaker 3: quarantine in Nebraska. Two others are at Emory Hospital in Georgia.
- 40:43Speaker 3: ABC's Aika Jachi also says contact tracing is expanding globally.
- 40:47Speaker 8: The big thing that officials are doing right now are
- 40:49Speaker 8: the tracing efforts. They want to see everybody who came
- 40:53Speaker 8: in contact with someone who possibly came down with the
- 40:57Speaker 8: hantavirus to make sure that they know exactly who they're
- 40:59Speaker 8: coming in contact with. So they're mapping out everybody who
- 41:02Speaker 8: came in contact with those passengers. They're doing those in-depth interviews.
- 41:06Speaker 8: And we're reporting that they're actually now monitoring some people
- 41:09Speaker 8: who have never had any contact with that cruise ship whatsoever.
