Peak-Hour Pain and Passport Games: Ameren’s Mystery Charges, Tucker’s Ben Gurion “Detention,” and Missouri’s Checklist State · International Flavor: Where the Truth Tastes Better

A warm place, but the streets are waiting for the prints of our feet.
0:53
Star dust on the boots.
1:00
A soft armchair, not pressed for four years during the lessons.
1:06
A sunny day, a group of blood on the sleeve.
1:18
My orderly home is on the sleeve.
1:23
Wish me luck.
2:10
Bratva, Brother 2, or it might have been in Siostri, which is Sisters.
2:19
The Sisters, that's a really killer movie, Siostri.
2:26
That is a very, very good movie and I like it a lot.
2:31
Anyway, hello, good morning, welcome.
2:33
Samuel Trapp here, as I said, and you know what?
2:38
I'm going to bitch this morning.
2:40
I'm going to complain and I'm going to yell, but only for a few minutes.
2:45
So yesterday I was very excited.
2:47
A lot of good things going on in life and everything is generally okay, right?
2:54
Well, there are several huge complaints, but I won't let them out here.
2:58
I'm controlling my complaints.
2:59
The one I will complain about and I need some help with because I don't freaking get it.
3:04
It makes no sense to me, zero.
3:06
So if you're listening and you live in the Lake Ozark Real Estate of the Art Studio area,
3:12
perhaps you could answer me this little riddle.
3:17
I live in a home that is, I don't know, 2,000 square feet, 1,800, something like that.
3:24
Pretty good size for me.
3:26
I'm basically in there all by my lonesome, right?
3:28
So it's been really cold lately.
3:33
And there's an air conditioner in this place.
3:38
Heat, HVAC unit, whatever.
3:40
And it covers the heat too, but it's one of them blower systems.
3:44
The house has a boiler in it and it's got one of them.
3:48
And I like this sort of stuff that goes along in a baseboard, you know?
3:52
The baseboard heat thing, old style, 1950s or whatever.
3:56
It's cool.
3:59
Columbia quite a few years ago, 18, 19.
4:03
And it had them too.
4:04
And it had a great boiler and that boiler was built in the 50s
4:07
and it was very, very efficient to heat that house.
4:11
The electric didn't go up.
4:13
And that house was twice the size, you know, the same size as this one,
4:16
but with a basement, a full basement, right?
4:19
And the house was always warm, you know, baseboard heat, very efficient, blah, blah, blah.
4:23
There's experts that know this stuff.
4:26
I am not one of them.
4:28
So the house is an old house.
4:31
It's drafty, it's freaking cold, but it's got a fireplace.
4:36
So I spent some money, got a fire in the fireplace.
4:39
And, you know, I actually, since it's an old style house,
4:43
it has doors at the end of like, it's like divided into wings or something.
4:50
You can close doors and close off the middle part of the house.
4:54
So during the coldest months, because I wanted to lay in front of the fire,
4:58
the couch and all the month of the last month,
5:01
I would basically not go anywhere else except the very middle of the house.
5:07
So I wouldn't have to heat the other, you know, the three bedrooms.
5:10
And so I put everything out there in the main area and I stayed out there.
5:17
And I don't need a home anyway.
5:19
So it's not like I'm doing any cooking.
5:21
And so the only places I'm heating a living room with a fireplace,
5:29
by the way, when I'm home, the heat is on, I don't know.
5:32
I like it warm in the house when I'm there.
5:36
But I kept it, you know, on whatever the temperature, you know, like 60.
5:43
I'd turn it down to 62, 64, something like that during the day.
5:47
Now the temperatures for a couple of weeks there were, you know,
5:51
30s and for me, you know,
5:53
I'm sitting there freezing my little butt off and I don't like it.
5:56
And so I built these massive fires when the fire's on in the fireplace.
6:01
Places in the living room, it's, I got it up to 82 in there.
6:07
And, you know, there I am, you know, happy as a pig in,
6:11
you know, what pigs are happy in.
6:13
And so I spent all this money on wood, kept the fire.
6:18
And I was generally excited, right, yesterday.
6:25
And the short end of this story is this.
6:28
This is horse crap, OK?
6:30
And I should have brought it with me because it's disgusting.
6:33
Somebody talks about Ameren UE and their bills and whatever.
6:37
I got the electric bill yesterday and the prior months,
6:41
I was bitching about it too because I got one,
6:45
but it come to find out I hadn't paid the month before.
6:48
And I didn't realize it.
6:50
And because of the jog and the way that you get there,
6:54
there was, there was a, I got a bill for like 600 bucks.
6:59
And I'm going, well, that sucks.
7:02
Jesus, if I got to pay that, that's ridiculous.
7:04
And I'm going to, you know, that's, that's what made me
7:09
very interested in seeing if I could keep it down
7:12
by keeping the house cooler, especially when it was really cold.
7:15
And I wanted to lay in fire anyway.
7:17
So, um, I did all that, spent the whole time
7:21
and then, you know, keeping the house pretty warm
7:24
and, uh, you know, pretty cold when I'm not there.
7:27
And yesterday came the good news, right?
7:30
The good news from Ameren that, uh, my bill,
7:34
my bill, actual freaking bill.
7:37
And half the time the place was freaking cold
7:41
was $645 for 31 days,
7:46
including the, you know, whatever day the bill ends,
7:49
the bill, you know, I owe the bill in March 10th
7:52
or something.
7:52
And, uh, but so they go to March, uh, you know,
7:56
a few days ago, you know, whatever the bill,
7:59
or to February, whatever.
8:00
So the bill ends February, uh, God knows, um,
8:05
ends February 10th, 12th, call it maybe the 13th,
8:10
who knows, but the bill covered
8:12
those particularly cold January periods.
8:18
$645 friends and neighbors.
8:20
Um, now it's old windows in that house,
8:22
but you know, they're covered with curtains.
8:24
It's, uh, uh, but, and it's cool freaking old house
8:27
and the boiler's still there.
8:30
It's a gas boiler, but there's no gas to the house.
8:32
I don't have a gas bill.
8:33
And, uh, I'm reading this bill and I was sitting there
8:37
going, what in the hell do you realize
8:39
that $45 of that was local taxed or tax tax.
8:45
And then there's, I'm reading all of these charges.
8:50
Somebody's retirement fund is on there.
8:52
Joe blows retirement.
8:54
You know, you got all this crap in there
8:56
that the bill was really just for the electric.
9:00
I swear to God, just the electric was like $508
9:06
just to pay the electric electric.
9:09
There are two types of electric come to find out
9:11
one is high peak and one is low peak.
9:14
God knows what that means.
9:16
And this is the most ridiculous bill I've ever seen.
9:19
I've heated houses.
9:22
I had houses 5,000 square feet in, uh, uh,
9:27
South of Jeff city town called wardsville.
9:29
I didn't pay 350 for that in the, in the winter.
9:35
And it had that forced air crap too.
9:37
And so I think there's something up.
9:40
Somebody's hooked up another house to it
9:42
and I'm paying double, uh,
9:44
because it's frigging cold in there.
9:46
And, uh, anyway, all you master, uh, uh, uh,
9:51
HVAC guys like my sister's husband who listens to my show.
9:55
Uh, hello, Matt, you should, uh,
9:57
you should come and install me a new AC system,
10:00
HVAC system or something screwy because that's happening.
10:04
There are two hot water heaters in the house.
10:06
And one of them is at the other end of the house.
10:09
I flipped the damn thing off.
10:10
Cause I don't use that either.
10:13
It's, uh, but, uh, anyway, that is my,
10:17
that is my pissing and moaning this morning
10:20
and trying to figure out what in the hell is going on
10:24
with either Amarin EU, EU, UE, uh,
10:28
or the fricking, um, uh, I don't know the house itself.
10:36
Who's why has Andrew been arrested?
10:38
Oh my God. Andrew's been arrested.
10:40
He's denied any wrongdoing.
10:43
Is that Prince Andrew we're talking about?
10:44
See these TVs in front of the studio make me.
10:48
Yeah, it is. It's former Prince Andrew arrested.
10:50
And he gave up his, uh, his titles and his holdings
10:54
and all that quite a few months ago.
10:55
And, uh, he, um, gave them up, uh,
11:00
because of the Epstein and now he's been arrested.
11:03
So here's England doing something about people, um,
11:09
associated with, um, his name is Andrew.
11:14
Andrew Mountbatten Windsor,
11:17
Andrew Mountbatten Windsor is his name.
11:21
And he's been arrested, uh, for crap having to do with,
11:27
uh, uh, what's his name? Epstein.
11:31
Um, there's been people who say stuff about, uh,
11:34
about Epstein and, uh, and all of that from, from beyond.
11:38
I, you know what? Um,
11:39
I'm kind of in a musical mood this morning.
11:41
And, um, what I want to do is, uh,
11:46
I'm going to play for you yet another song.
11:51
This one will be in English just because, um,
11:56
here's a song that I particularly care for this one.
12:02
Uh, and I'm on a, I'm going to be on a roll this morning.
12:05
I got some topics, but what I figure is, is, uh,
12:08
I didn't have time running into the studio probably
12:10
because I was bitching about my electric bill, uh,
12:15
to organize my little, uh, screens the way I like.
12:20
So you can either listen to Victor Tsui and Kino,
12:23
the group, and listen to the rest of the song
12:25
about, uh, Grupa Krovi, uh, the blood type,
12:30
or you can listen to Lana Del Rey, uh,
12:34
with, uh, Cedric Gervais in Urge of Ace.
12:36
I don't know if I said that right, but it's a song
12:39
that I particularly like, and it is called
12:43
Summertime Sadness.
12:47
And this, my friends and neighbors,
12:50
is Summertime Sadness.
12:53
NTV.
13:23
I'm fine.
14:41
I'm feeling electric tonight.
14:45
Cruising down the coast, going about 99.
14:49
Gone bad, baby, by my heavenly side.
14:52
I know if I go, I'll die happy tonight.
14:57
Oh, my God, I feel it in the air.
15:01
Telephone wires above are sizzling like a snail.
15:05
Honey, I'm feeling electric tonight.
15:05
I'm fine, I'm feeling everywhere.
15:08
Nothing scares me anymore.
15:13
Kiss me all before.
15:17
Summertime sadness.
15:20
I just wanted you to know.
15:24
That baby, baby, baby.
15:28
I said that Summertime, Summertime sadness.
16:30
That, my friends and neighbors, was Lana Del Rey.
16:34
A song called Summertime Sadness,
16:37
particularly like it's a it's a good version of it too there's a lot of
16:42
different versions of it and the Prince getting arrested is throwing me all off
16:46
anyway sad for you you're gonna have to well not sad it's actually good for you
16:51
but I am gonna go and get a document that is in my car and so I'm gonna go get
16:59
that document and as a result you're gonna get exactly what you've all been
17:04
asking for and wanting for Christmas for so long that I'm gonna go ahead and
17:10
provide it just because I'm a nice guy y'all know that I try to be I don't know
17:16

17:23
single week not as good as Wednesday though Wednesday is the greatest day in
17:27
radio and I'm but I want this document and so I'm going to go collect it and
17:33
because I was going to share it with you and it's part of it we are gonna
17:37
listen to Grupa Krovi and Victor Tsoi and song called Blood Type if you're
17:45
listening now Ruscom it would be Grupa Krovi and the group is Kino and there you
17:54
have it
20:09
I don't want to put my foot on anyone's chest
20:15
I would like to stay with you, just to stay with you
20:23
But a tall star in the sky is calling me to the path
20:31
Grupa Krovi na rukave,
20:35
Tsoi poryatkovy nomen na rukave
20:39
Pozhelay mne udachi v poyu,
20:44
Pozhelay mne ne ostatsa v adai drave
20:51
Ne ostatsa v adai drave
20:55
Pozhelay mne udachi,
22:36
Friends and neighbors that was Victor Tsoi and the group was Kino and the
22:43
song was Grupa Krovi and it means blood type and basically do you know that
22:50
really is a kind of a war song if you watched a video of it especially but I
22:57
it's in a number of movies as well and the Soviet Union was in well then and
23:04
then well I think they were out with the Soviet Union left in around 89 but for
23:11
about 10 years and this is when I was first in the army in the military they
23:17
were embroiled in what war where Afghanistan friends and neighbors and
23:27
partially the same reasons that that the Americans were there for 20 freakin
23:33
years and the Russians with their winter the Soviets went there was zero success
23:39
that song is really about you can you know the the pre-p of the I don't know
23:45
what you'd call it the chorus I suppose if you sing a song and there's a little
23:50
refrain that goes the same in the song in Russian it's called the pre-p of and
23:55
but I don't remember in England in English I mean it's a I don't know what
24:01
it's called it's a chorus I guess and but anyway the chorus he keeps saying you
24:08
know wish me luck in battle wish me luck in battle I just want to stay here with
24:13
you there are things like he's saying there's my serial numbers on my arm don't
24:18
let me stay in the grass you know I don't want to stay here in the grass and
24:23
die basically that song was very very popular in the 90s and and it was that's
24:30
why it was in a couple of movies in the movie the movie brought yeah in the in
24:38
the first brought the movie brought and you know was in the second two I believe
24:42
both brothers had served in the army in Afghanistan and the second one the
24:48
younger brother who the story focuses on this is a friggin awesome movie by the
24:52
way in the brought the the first one is about a brother and who but well they're
25:01
two brothers and they're they're kind of on the criminal variety let's put it
25:05
that way one of them is paid to kill people in Moscow and the other ones is
25:09
younger brother that comes back from Moscow from Afghanistan and he won't say
25:14
where he served he always tells everybody I didn't do anything I served
25:18
in I served in in the stop the headquarters I was a I served in the
25:24
headquarters when nobody believes it because he's a stone-cold killer hey
25:29
right there where they call him to Tarki to Tarini and there's to Taran is a
25:36
Tatar key so my wife said to Tarka and she's from she's from Tatarstan so they
25:43
live in you know they're Tatarstan people and they're in the south of of
25:48
Russia in this place called Tatarstan which Kazan is in Tatarstan and so's
25:54
nobody's me tell me which is where I go to sometimes when I when I go over there
25:58
that's that's where my wife grew up and is nobody's me tell me and you know it's
26:05
a really cool area it's it's a but the people there are unique you know it's
26:10
like they're they're Muslim but I don't know 50% maybe and it's a it's a you
26:19
know I was I went to a Muslim funeral when I was over there which was very
26:23
interesting experience for me and I you know I respect everybody's religion
26:29
anyway it's I have a different a far different worldview you know and getting
26:36
embroiled in Afghanistan as part of the history and part of the way they grew
26:39
up in the 90s and and you know just like this war in Ukraine is gonna be a big
26:44
deal but but the Russian soldier part is pretty proud in this song anyway with
26:49
Kino and Victor Tsoi would give you a good insight into how a lot of people
26:57
think in Russia you know because a lot of that song goes through as well and
27:04
says you know it's it's my duty I kind of gotta go you know but I'd rather stay
27:11
here with you and of course you know it's kind of it's that's that's what you
27:16
think but but you're going I'm fighting and I feel and I don't know the I don't
27:21
remember the exact words of the song I couldn't sing it to you but I probably
27:25
could sing along but I can sing along to quite a few of them I should play for
27:30
you some Vladimir Vysotsky who was around during the 60s and 70s I went to a
27:40
museum and his it which was in now but as me tell me and got a private tour
27:45
while I was in there in the Vladimir Jesus now I forgot his last name but I
27:54
have all it is I know his record albums a Soviet diplomat gave to me and that
28:01
was quite the gift to receive from him and and and a volume two volumes of the
28:08
of his music you know I like the history side I like the different cultural side
28:16
of other cultures I just think it's important to understand where they came
28:24
from how they think and for me it's part and I'm not saying I think Russian
28:28
but I do think in Russian a lot of times a lot of times I can't remember when I
28:35
was first learning Russian and it came apart my wife was so funny she's with me
28:42
in in the second round of school okay second time I'd gone to the Defense
28:49
Language Institute and I was taking a course there about the INF treaties and
28:56
some of the other ones you know but the focus was the intermediate-range nuclear
29:00
forces treaty which way back when I knew backward and forward you know I was a I
29:05
was a good soldier and I liked that stuff I liked treaties and language of
29:12
treaties and stuff that I thought mattered right I'm a little I don't want
29:18
to go quite on the bitter end but I but I'm I'm bothered by the fact that these
29:24
treaties which were so important in the late 80s in the early 90s did nobody
29:30
freaking cares and and it doesn't matter anymore you know the we as a
29:38
society as American society as a target from our government and I'm not taking
29:43
any blame for it but I played my part like the rest of us because we elect
29:49
people who were morons and we let them stay in office as morons for their
29:53
entire lives and you end up with Lindsey Graham hanging out there for 25 freaking
29:58
years and you know just the same old people doing the same old crap and
30:04
they're still living like it's 1979 you know what I mean and everything that
30:09
their view worldviews haven't changed a drop and so they they don't they don't
30:15
just well yeah we're America we're in charge you lost you know cold wars that
30:22
you lose have consequences cold wars lost mean you know there's only one one show
30:29
anymore it's only ours your show was crap in the 90s when the movie the two
30:35
movies brought one and brought to co Street the the sisters movie which is
30:39
an awesome movie as well but it's more about how the the Mafia and criminals
30:45
were very prevalent in the 90s in those areas and there were it was that show if
30:54
you could watch it in in English and I don't watch it in English I watch it in
31:01
Russian you get more out of it when when you translate it it loses a little
31:06
bit but it's a but it's extremely interesting and and this was not my
31:10
planned topic today but I I think it's important that people understand this
31:16
you know because I'm I'm kind of winging it now but but I think that you have to
31:21
have to understand a little bit about the culture and the background and the
31:30
way people think the fact is Muslims don't think like Christians period end of
31:38
sentence Israelis they don't think like anybody else they are God's chosen even
31:43
in their own mind and the problem is they've convinced America that there
31:47
really are the chosen ones and that they have something different and God
31:51
knows they might be who the hell knows I don't know you know but I'm not gonna
31:56
dictate to you that the that the Israelis can just blow people up and
32:01
destroy a culture or engage in genocide because somebody did it to them
32:05
repeatedly over their entire history and that means they can they can
32:12
indiscriminately kill women children men everything in the Gaza area now and
32:18
I'm not making any political commentary about that because there's obviously two
32:23
sides to that story but you know they have zero problems escalation is the
32:31
name of the game for them and and I dislike the Netanyahu approach to the
32:36
world I don't like it I don't like that they
32:40
are extremely into the as a culture into the rules for thee but not for me
32:47
especially their their rule they don't even apply our rules to what they do and
32:52
we just follow along like like the lapdog that America has come to be as
32:58
there's an article about Rubio headed there today or yesterday or something
33:03
he's on his way over there and I guarantee you we'll come back with with
33:06
more platitudes and more G's let's bomb Iran and you know Iran is not our
33:13
problem Iran is an Israel maybe problem but Iran is just as scared about Israel
33:22
bombing them because they always have a big brother on the shoulder and and if
33:27
it was just Iran against Israel and they actually wanted to do something they
33:31
probably would but they won't because they don't want to start in a world war
33:36
either but we keep starting them and again these are conflicts that we have
33:41
Zippo business being involved in just like the Russians had no business in
33:46
Afghanistan in hindsight it's easy to say and it's easy to say in hindsight
33:51
that America had no reason to be in a lot of the crap wars that we've been in
33:56
you know what was Iraq for Iran what do we really get out of that what do we get
34:02
out of Afghanistan zip a bunch of dead bodies in a bag bullshit pardon my
34:08
French what do we get out of Vietnam we got a big history of failed nonsensical
34:14
zero-gain zero-gain wars and so what's gonna happen when Israel decides with
34:24
Rubio today oh geez it's time to bomb them what if they get a bomb Pakistan's
34:29
got the bomb you know that in Pakistan's too close for us you know but
34:34
they don't admit that they have the nukes they aren't in per non
34:38
proliferation if they have friends in better I don't know Morocco let's say
34:43
and they do I mean there's some Jewish areas in Morocco Morocco is a cool
34:47
country it's great to be over there and they you know our friend and by the way
34:54
lots of English-speaking lots of Muslim tons of Muslims and tons of Jewish
35:00
people they have entire Jewish communities they live together no no
35:03
war in Morocco you don't hear about that you don't hear about the the the Jews
35:08
and outside of what's the capital there there's so many of them Casablanca is
35:15
over there and there's a couple where else anyway bunch of cool cities over
35:21
there that I'm rambling but let's just say that you know there's a little Jew
35:25
big Jewish communities there and some big Muslim communities there maybe we
35:29
should give each of them nukes so they have a non-deterrent not to blow each
35:34
other up you know maybe they should each have nukes city one city to you know
35:39
where we're Jews and what if these what if these Muslims come and kill us that's
35:45
what they do you know and Israel is not truthfully in any horrible danger but
35:52
that's what they've sold to us forever but they're the ones that push the
35:57
buttons 90% of the time and they don't have any problem pushing those buttons
36:01
for more and it's caused a lot of issues in the world in these Muslim versus
36:06
Christian themes around the planet are no way to start a no that's not say
36:16
there aren't extremists on either side you know but there's extremists I'd say
36:20
Netanyahu's an extremist that could be you know a death sentence to say
36:26
something like that guy's an extremist and there's no doubt you know he's out
36:32
there that guy's still living in 19 what was it 79 when the Iranians had
36:38
hostages and he's still keeping it right there and and I don't believe in their
36:45
in talks about this nuclear stuff right now and I read an article that the
36:51
Iranians wanted to send all their processed uranium to Russia and that
37:00
they were in talks about that too and to keep to they're trying to figure this
37:06
out treaty wise but the trouble is it's it's always in the background that the
37:11
dictatorship of Israel controlling America like they do is gonna lead to
37:19
yet another another destruction I mean hell I ran how many years the sanctions
37:25
been going on there and that what was that guy was listened to that was a
37:30
very interesting article that I read of his but anyway that's enough of the war
37:35
topic and of the culture of war that we are engaged in and the document I went
37:43
to my truck to get is guess what I thought I had it in there and I do I was
37:52
the pissing and moaning about this bill from Ameren maybe somebody can tell me
37:58
and I'll look it up for tomorrow but this is nonsense here's my bill usage
38:05
summary total kilowatt hours seven thousand and seventy seven peak or off
38:16
peak kilowatt hours three thousand nine hundred and five non summer off peak
38:25
kilowatt hours three thousand nine hundred and five on peak and I don't
38:33
know when the peak is on peak is three thousand one hundred and seventy two
38:38
and which is so one of these one of these is the time period like I'm not
38:44
there during the day and I turn the heat down to you know 60 or whatever and then
38:50
I come back home and I put it up to generally 70 but sometimes I go to 69
38:55
and stuff like that but I like it a little warmer right and the the but I
39:02
don't know when peak and non peak is but that seems to me that one or the
39:07
other would be quite a bit less and it doesn't appear to be and that maybe that
39:13
you know I'm gonna have to I'm doing some studying to this even while we're
39:16
here but the more important thing to me is this long litany list of other stuff
39:23
okay so here's the it's called rate 1m residential evening morning saver and
39:32
this is what I'm pissing and moaning and bitching about today I have no idea what
39:37
this means all I know is I got a bill for six hundred and forty five dollars
39:42
and thirty one cents and I know that on which one is which show do we have here
39:49
where and I've heard them talk about it on the air the the really good show with
39:59
the girls who were all really I apologize that I don't recall the name
40:05
of the of the program but guess what we are gonna find it on the schedule we're
40:11
going to find it and it is called the what are they they're the they're them oh
40:17
I remember shield maidens of Missouri I can't find it yet anywhere in the show
40:22
anyway they're in the schedule but because it was a couple of days ago and
40:26
they come on once a week and I remember them talking a lot about electric bills
40:31
and all the BS going around with that maybe I need to listen again to their
40:37
electrical stuff and because they were having some analysis and and talking
40:41
about how this this crap is just they're sticking it to you and here's the
40:46
sticking it to Samuel which is going on right now and these these rates at one
40:51
two three four five six seven eight nine ten ten separate charges on my freaking
41:01
electric bill and here they go so winter electric energy charge zero to
41:08
750 usage 750 so I assume I'm only allowed 750 to use and that usage would
41:16
be $78.38 okay then I have winter electric energy charge so I assume I get
41:26
the first 750 at a very low rate or maybe a high rate I don't know seems to
41:35
be a little higher than the other because get this winter electric charge
41:39
greater than 750 6200 or 327 kilowatt hours now there's some something is truly
41:49
there's a live wire somewhere running something in that house because there
41:54
ain't no way all the lights are off all the time the heat is off during the day
41:59
and I only turn it on at night there ain't no way and I've separated off the
42:05
house 6,327 kilowatt hours for total cost of charge here's the electric
42:11
charges okay four thousand four or four hundred four hundred and forty three
42:19
dollars and fifty two cents so I have two electric winter electric charges
42:24
then there's something called an on peak adjustment with a usage the on peak
42:30
stuff from up above comes out there 3172 and I got another charge for being
42:37
during the peak hours God knows when they are and that is $8.88 additional
42:45
that I've been charged so the all electric is 443 plus $8 well call it 9
42:54
443 that's 452 plus $78 for 52 so we add an 8 and that'd be 530 right so five
43:06
hundred and thirty dollars for straight-up electric charges but my bill
43:14
is six hundred and forty five dollars so there's a hundred and fifteen dollars of
43:21
crap on there and here goes first there's a customer charge of nine
43:26
dollars and nineteen cents it's not identified as anything else customer
43:30
charge nine dollars nineteen cents no freaking idea what that is then there's
43:36
a fuel adjustment charge that I gotta pay for fuel I don't know what that
43:42
means what fuel am I paying for twenty eight dollars and fifteen cents here's
43:49
another one energy efficiency investment charge I'm now investing in
43:55
energy efficiency against my will fourteen dollars or at least without my
44:00
permission fourteen dollars and seventy eight cents okay renewable energy
44:07
adjustment so now I'm creating renewable energy somehow in my house half the time
44:13
in my underwear okay and this is the kilowatt hours and the extra additional
44:20
charge for creating renewable energy which I'm doing so well eleven dollars
44:24
in ten cents I'm doing so well that I have to pay for it that's eleven dollars
44:30
and ten cents to me and then Rush Island retirement cost what the flip is Rush
44:37
Island retirement why am I paying for Rush Island retirement this is horse
44:43
crap they're charging me and imagine everybody else in the planet least in
44:47
mid-Missouri is paying for some Rush Island retirement fund who the hell are
44:53
they we don't know seven dollars and sixty four cents so the total cost for
45:00
services these are these are services provided to me is six hundred and one
45:06
dollars and sixty two cents so my bill for electricity was five hundred and
45:11
and they've added seventy one dollars in total cost so now the electric cost
45:18
is there now here comes the the taxes got to pay the government right I have
45:27
to pay the government for them providing me stuff wouldn't it shouldn't it be the
45:34
other way around they pay taxes this is new horseshit coming to you live at Lake
45:42
Ozark real the art real estate of the art studio I pay a Missouri local sales
45:48
tax of twelve dollars and three cents so I assume that's a what rate six percent
45:55
maybe two oh no what's the rate what would that be it says it's point zero to
46:02
two percent twelve two percent yeah I suppose that is two percent two percent
46:07
Missouri local sales tax on electricity oh gee isn't that a gift regular sales
46:12
taxes whatever it is six and a half seven percent I think and then I have
46:17
this this great municipal service charge for Lake Ozark Miller County municipal
46:24
charge for service okay based on the full bill of six hundred one dollars and
46:30
sixty two cents which would include the retirement fund cost and I'm paying for
46:35
somebody so I got to pay tax on top of that retirement fund I got to pay tax on
46:41
the fact that I paid it to the Lake Ozark Miller County municipal charge
46:45
service that cost friends and neighbors thirty one dollars and sixty eight
46:52
cents for a total amount of four forty three dollars in tax related charges so
47:02
forty three dollars in tax related charges seventy dollars in bullshit
47:06
charges that God knows what now they are and the actual electric bill should have
47:10
been 530 which is astronomical in the first place it makes no sense to me
47:16
that a tiny little you know half of a 2,000 square foot house if it's that I'm
47:22
estimating but the half of it in there that is there I don't know what the hell
47:29
you got to do anyway that is the end of my bitchin but it'd be really nice if
47:33
somebody could explain that to me so I wouldn't have to sit around and bitch
47:38
about it or tell me what in the world I have to do you know I'm a generally
47:44
forward-thinking adult male generally think ahead and say you know I don't
47:52
want to bullshit six hundred forty five dollar bill which I actually said last
47:56
month when I got the bill that said six hundred dollars but no you know what
48:00
because of the the hopping and because I was driving during Christmas time went
48:09
to Wyoming and stuff somehow it I had paid it before I left but I was really
48:15
paying an old bill and must have only paid the the the bill that was there and
48:22
not the one that they joined together because of the way it felt I don't know
48:26
but I you know I don't look at the electric bill I just get online and pay
48:31
the damn thing and so I generally don't pay attention and if it shows up and I
48:36
actually see it but nine times out of ten I don't see it I just pay it and
48:41
when I got on got on to pay it it was like holy crap I owe them $600 and last
48:49
month I was bitching about it and so this month I've been watching and I was
48:53
particularly conscious of it because of the extremely high bill the month before
48:59
but but then I was happy about the month before because although it was
49:02
six hundred dollars I thought maybe mistakenly that it was two months
49:07
because the way it felt but friends and neighbors December was reasonably cold
49:13
too and here we are with another six hundred forty five dollar bill anyway
49:21
somebody should watch their own freaking bill because they're raping us friends
49:27
and neighbors they are kicking the crap out of our pocketbooks and for what for
49:32
electricity Jesus I ought to buy a generator and a gallon of gas every day
49:37
you know I'd probably be better off that is crap I'm buying some solar panels or
49:43
something maybe my own little personal windmill that I put up oh yeah that's
49:47
renewable energy and I'm gonna start charging you for my renewable energy and
49:53
charge me tax on it anyway that's part of the bitchin for today and I wanted to
49:59
go through but but quick I wanted to go through a little bit of the world news
50:03
and everybody heard did you hear about Tucker Carlson saying he got detained in
50:10
Israel that's crazy so Israel you know he doesn't he's kind of he'd be similar
50:18
to me so having that being a world traveler okay I'm a world traveler when
50:25
and I lived in Qatar for a while right and I you know but appreciate what the
50:36
heck went on over there and I and I and I keep trying to keep track of things
50:40
and it's a beautiful wonderful cultural country and there's a serious divide
50:48
between the Muslim locals which is only 300,000 Qataris or so maybe 400 it's a
50:56
small number in relation to the size of the Western or European or there's a
51:03
huge part of Doha the capital that is full of Indians Bangladeshis Nepalese
51:13
and Filipinos that are there huge like a third of the city and very cultural over
51:19
there I used to love watching walking through the Indian districts phone shops
51:23
everywhere phone that they import from China and they sell these phones and you
51:28
could go get a nice while we over there for for quite a bit less I bought a
51:32
Huawei what I was over there but my faith and it was probably my favorite
51:36
phone that I've ever had but when Android kept upgrading it finally
51:39
upgraded me out of there and they were so far ahead of Apple while we phones
51:45
are fantastic in you know I've looked at them in but now Brezhnev tell me I
51:53
almost bought one and then when I was in Kazakhstan I almost bought one and for
51:59
six eight hundred dollars but here it would cost you fifteen hundred you know a
52:05
similar like your your Samsung 24 here what I paid for that you know they're
52:10
always up charged and then give it to you if you sign a new new contract I'll
52:14
give it to you for less and a but the base price of those things are 1200
52:18
bucks and the Huawei ones cost even more they're a better phone and better than
52:25
Samsung and and I love my Samsung's you know I'm at I'm at I traded it to my
52:34
wife she's been in Egypt for three four months and I traded it to her and gave
52:39
her my s24 and I got an s22 and but I like it cameras fantastic it's Android
52:46
it's but my favorite phone was that Huawei and on it you could actually have
52:51
Microsoft and then I bought a Microsoft telephone over in Qatar that was really
52:57
cool it's like a mini computer but it's your telephone and that was awesome you
53:02
know then and you know I like to have enough anyway who the hell cares let's
53:06
talk about the world news Tucker Carlson saying he was detained my point was that
53:10
in in if you lived in Qatar and you traveled to Israel let's say you cut the
53:17
hundred dollar flight roundtrip to go from Doha to Israel you want to go to
53:23
Israel and tour and see some of some of the area over there as and you went
53:29
there and you got a stamp in your passport for Israel well that could
53:38
cause you a problem when they flip through your your card you know when
53:43
they flip through and tell you you quiz you about where you've been because when
53:49
you go to other countries they quiz you about where you have been where you go
53:54
and people they said that if you went to you know I was given the advice that
54:02
because I wanted to travel while I was there a little bit and the only place I
54:06
got to go to was Sri Lanka from from Doha and that was a cool little trip
54:11
went there for ten days or so and I was told that if you go to Israel make sure
54:18
that they don't stamp your passport I was like why are you gonna stop that they
54:24
said well they they're they're familiar with it you know and they will give you
54:27
a separate stamped piece of paper to put inside of your passport so that when you
54:35
flip through my passport num pages are always full you know of stamps they have
54:40
to search for a stamp spot in mine because everywhere you go you know they
54:45
stamp it and I keep all my passports they punch a hole in them when you when
54:50
you are finished with them and then they stamp them when you travel and well
54:55
most of time a lot of times they don't you know and I didn't get mine stamped
54:59
going from Uzbekistan to Kazakhstan or vice versa I forget what happened but it
55:04
was a snowstorm or there was an accident or something like that and we'd been on
55:09
the road for a while and we got in the line I was driving and we got in a line
55:13
of tractor-trailer trucks and that line of tractor-trailer trucks went across
55:19
the border and we were in it and so we ended up going across it it was just
55:35
fluke you know never should have happened but we never got checked and so
55:38
I never had a stamp but when you leave one country that's just leaving and when
55:42
you try to get into another country you have to have a stamp from the place you
55:45
just left in order to get there and I went to the new country which I can't
55:49
remember if was Uzbekistan to Kazakhstan or the other way around and when I came
55:53
back I couldn't get in the country for a bit they quizzed me about where's your
55:58
stamp I don't know they didn't stamp it and it was Russians thinking that I was
56:02
doing something weird and that's because everybody speaks Russian over there and
56:06
they were getting quiz anyway I am way far off of what I was saying but Tucker
56:11
Carlson got says that he was detained in in Israel and he said he was detained at
56:23
Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv Wednesday after taping an interview with the
56:29
American ambassador to Israel and he frequently criticizes USA to West
56:34
Jerusalem he told the Daily Mail that Israeli officials took his passport and
56:40
escorted his executive producer into an interrogation room men who identified
56:45
themselves as airport security took our passports hauled our executive producer
56:50
into a side room and demanded to know what we spoke to Ambassador Huckabee
56:54
about it was bizarre we are now out of the country he said the US Embassy in
57:00
Israel denied Carlson's claims saying he was subjected to routine security checks
57:06
the airport Ambassador Huckabee wrote on X everyone who comes in and out of
57:12
Israel or every country for that matter except the US by the way we just oh come
57:17
on in come on in let me pour you some bourbon you know here it is and who
57:23
comes in and out of Israel has passports checked and routinely asked
57:26
security questions now but they don't haul you into a room okay everybody gets
57:32
checked the last time I went to remember when I was reporting to you
57:36
about the BRICS conference in Kazan my my wife was already in Russia and we had
57:43
been there a couple of months before and she chose to stay those months and so I
57:47
was flying by myself but she tells me to be careful she goes don't you know she's
57:52
always she's crossed borders she'd been to like 85 90 countries in the world and
57:58
she says and I've only been to like 56 I think is the last number 56 countries
58:04
and she's been didn't like 90 and and lived in quite a few of them and so she
58:10
keeps saying look don't screw around at the borders well I don't I told you my
58:14
story but when I was in the army and coming back and I don't screw around but
58:18
in everyone does get checked that's true and if you're a foreign person with a
58:26
different you know reason like as an American I've told you stories about me
58:30
driving between Georgia and the southern Russia into the area of
58:39
Nizhny no where were we going well it doesn't matter but but coming across
58:43
that border there's a border when you cross going out they check you going out
58:48
and they check you coming into the next country and in between there's I don't
58:52
know 200 yards there's you're going out of one place you're going another
58:55
sometimes it's a mile you know there's Abkhazia or something like that in
59:00
between Russia and and I forget the name of the little stretch of land there but
59:04
I want to say Abkhazia but I don't recall and it's the two places in
59:08
between there and so when you get checked going out and you get checked
59:11
going in I was detail checked we were the group of people and I was personally
59:16
checked but the check is not regular usually the the guy at the when you come
59:23
back and Jay Jay are might be particularly familiar with this when
59:26
you're coming back into even America but or when you're leaving the country you
59:31
got to leave the country you got a show that you followed the laws in the country
59:35
and they let you out and then when you're coming into the new country so in
59:40
between those two countries you're in limbo right because it's possible
59:44
country number one lets you out but country number two doesn't let you back
59:48
in and then when you go back to country number one you can't get in either
59:51
there's stateless people that are hanging out in the middle and can't go
59:55
anywhere you know that does happen but what happens when you cross a border for
1:00:01
the for you non-travelers especially in other religious based countries let's
1:00:07
say like Qatar if you go into Qatar you're gonna get checked and they have
1:00:13
I readers in Qatar that check your eyes for identity you can go in or facial
1:00:19
recognition and it used you know they they have facial recognition in quite a
1:00:24
few of these advanced countries far greater than our crap we don't have any
1:00:28
of that and well most of the places and I've done my share travel and we have
1:00:33
some upgrade we have upgrade requirements Sheremetyevo in in in Russia
1:00:39
is fantastic and to talk about a modern airport she's I took pictures from there
1:00:44
I think you can find them on my Facebook or I'm sorry not my Facebook I haven't
1:00:50
been on there in a forever on my YouTube channel but anyway it is not regular
1:00:57
ambassador Huckabee for people to be detained checked they only check like I
1:01:06
was in a car they come to the window of the car they ask for everybody's
1:01:09
passports but you don't have to get out of the car most of the time and I was in
1:01:14
a traveling car with four or five people and they were pissed off the rest of
1:01:20
them were pretty pissed off because I'm an American and that meant that when I
1:01:26
tried to get in when I tried to get out of Georgia I got checked for I had to go
1:01:32
get in a line and sit the actual time sitting in front of the inspection
1:01:36
officer was five minutes four minutes that's a short period of time and he
1:01:42
quizzed me about you know where I was going what I was doing who I was seeing
1:01:47
where I was staying went through my passport asked for my phone which I gave
1:01:52
to him he could check it and and then let me out you know let me out of Georgia
1:01:58
and then when I went into Russia they checked me the same way in a separate
1:02:03
room so the people we were riding with were not happy because we were delayed
1:02:07
by about an hour and a half and some borders when you cross between Belarus
1:02:13
and Lithuania holy crap they say to prepare for 17 hours to get through
1:02:23
there get ready because it's gonna be a long time now buses usually can get
1:02:28
through early and we were we were on a bus on a tour bus and it still took us
1:02:32
three hours you know to get through because they're pretty serious about
1:02:37
that and they check you out in these others so Huckabee is not right because
1:02:43
the majority of people do get
1:02:48
checked just at the window asked a couple of questions where you going do
1:02:52
you have your visa do you have your stuff they're verifying you have the
1:02:55
proper documents to get in because they don't want you to not be able to get out
1:02:59
because you don't have the right paper anyway that's Tucker Carlson stuff and
1:03:04
that is you know I think it was a it was bizarre and we're out of the country he
1:03:12
said because I believe they target certain individuals I was telling you
1:03:17
that when when I was with my wife and I go into Tatarstan southern Russia when I
1:03:23
go into there we fly into which airport do we fly into Kazan I think you fly
1:03:29
into the Kazan Airport and so you come from Turkey or we came from Doha and
1:03:34
Qatar once and we flew into Naberezhnye into Kazan on our way to
1:03:40
Naberezhnye Chelny. Naberezhnye Chelny is about two hours east of Kazan by car or
1:03:48
bus or whatever and so we fly into Kazan and when I'm with her we go through we
1:03:52
go through together and they say oh you're together it's your wife and my
1:03:55
wife does all the talking and you know they just oh yeah here's an you know
1:03:58
stupid American probably doesn't even speak Russian but I do and they stamp my
1:04:02
passports pretty easy I go along with the crowd but when I was by myself
1:04:07
here's what happened it was late at night it's like 1130 I fly in we're
1:04:14
coming from where was I at that point I think I flew in from Turkey and I came
1:04:22
from Turkey and in Turkey there are a lot of people that are coming back that
1:04:26
are from places like Bangladesh Kazakhstan Uzbekistan a lot of a lot of
1:04:35
darker skin tones let's say and a lot of Muslim travelers down there and so when
1:04:41
you come into Kazan which there's also a lot of Muslim Muslims there they check
1:04:47
you at the border but it was late at night we were flying like and there's
1:04:51
nobody there the airport was empty in Kazan basically and we were the only
1:04:56
incoming flight last one of the night something like that and we come in and
1:05:00
there's however many people are on a plane 150 or something and we come
1:05:05
through and we get in line and I was near the front of the line I was in the
1:05:09
first I don't know 50 people and the line was going very quickly you know
1:05:16
they're they want to get through they want to go home the people that are
1:05:20
working there want to close up shop and get out as well so they're in most of
1:05:25
anybody who lives there two separate lines well three there's one for pilots
1:05:29
and diplomats and stuff like that those people they're done then there's a line
1:05:34
for residents of Kazan you know locals here you come if you live here and
1:05:41
here's foreign passport holders over here and the line with foreign passport
1:05:45
holders was pretty full a lot of people come Kazakhstan Uzbekistan Kyrgyzstan
1:05:51
places like that and so from from from Qatar I think I was coming from Doha at
1:05:57
that time and a lot of people traveling back home or whatever and so that line
1:06:03
was the longest people with holding foreign passports and I'm near the front
1:06:07
of that line but there was a good eighty hundred people in it and I'm near the
1:06:11
front and so first third of it and I handed my passport and he stares at it
1:06:19
stares at me flips through every page says you know do you speak Russian and I
1:06:27
was like yeah and he goes well tell me what what's going on here and I was like
1:06:32
nothing I want to go to the BRICS conference or I probably wouldn't be
1:06:38
here but you know I may go to now but as you tell me because that's where my
1:06:43
wife's mom lives and my wife's been there forever he goes why is she traveling with
1:06:48
you and I was like it's like well she's been here came back home visiting her
1:06:52
mother for for a month or two and you know I just want to get into the thing
1:06:57
and he asked me basic questions just like everybody else then he called
1:07:01
somebody and the people behind me are going
1:07:07
geez we get behind the dirty American and they didn't they didn't say stuff
1:07:13
like that but you could you could hear the obvious groaning it's hello we're
1:07:17
gonna be stuck because there's only one guy in our line and he's making a call
1:07:21
it's the call and after the call he asked me a couple more questions and
1:07:26
then he called the guy again oh people are bitching over there in the
1:07:31
background and then finally he goes have a seat over there oh shit no it's my
1:07:38
turn I'm being detained right and so I got I went and sat over on some benches
1:07:45
on the wall and there's one other poor ne'er-do-well kid from turned out but he
1:07:53
was from Bangladesh and he was sitting there next to me and we chatted a little
1:07:57
bit about what was going his Russian was good too and so he's like yeah I was
1:08:02
like he goes do you know why you know we're being detained as a matter of
1:08:05
fact if I know oh I shouldn't talk like that but I said I really don't know I
1:08:09
no idea and they came out well I sat there for 45 minutes or so they first
1:08:16
came out and took the first guy and you know the kid that was there before me
1:08:22
and we're quizzing him and then they finally come and collect me and they
1:08:28
take me into the into the room and they start asking me questions about my phone
1:08:35
asking me questions about why I was there what interest I would have in the
1:08:42
BRICS conference I had a letter saying I could could attend I got approved by
1:08:48
the foreign ministry to go to the Kazan conference submitted press credentials
1:08:54
and letter from a letter from JR in fact I submitted and said that you know I was
1:09:02
doing it on behalf of my show at damn radio and blah blah blah gave him that
1:09:06
stuff and then said my wife lives you know my wife and her mom are here my
1:09:11
she lives in now but isn't he telling me and I've been here a bunch of times he
1:09:15
goes yeah I can see that he goes I see the stamps he goes but you've been you
1:09:20

1:09:26
lot of countries stamped in my in my book wouldn't I was like well I want to
1:09:30
see them all I want to see a hundred you know before I kick the bucket and he
1:09:36
it's like oh I see says it well your Russian is is really good he said that's
1:09:41
that's that's great and he said I'm really sorry for having to detain you for
1:09:46
so long he said and then we don't mean to detain you but there's only so many of
1:09:51
us and we have to you know keep the security right and and and you know what
1:09:57
when's the last time you heard that coming back from Mexico from Department
1:10:03
of Homeland Security guy they take their sweet time that is for sure and if
1:10:10
you're getting detained by one of those guys on your way back in which I was
1:10:14
once to find out where the hell I'd been I don't remember what was stamped on my
1:10:19
passport they didn't like but the boy they checked me out and I said and I
1:10:23
watched this guy walk past ten times and he wasn't doing anything coffee chatting
1:10:29
with this person going that person and finally came and collected me and went
1:10:33
and saw me and he didn't apologize about crap oh okay you can go you know he
1:10:38
asked me a few questions could have done it in a minute and let me go and so
1:10:44
anyway I'm really on a bitch and moan to session today aren't I that's what we
1:10:49
will name the title of today's show the pissing and moaning show by Samuel trap
1:10:54
here on international piss and moan it but there you have it that's how it
1:10:59
goes well Tucker had the same thing happen to him and he didn't like it now
1:11:05
I'm not saying it's fun it sucks you know but but everybody has the
1:11:08
opportunity to read that to take the security of their country in the way
1:11:13
that they see fit and I'm bitching about it Carlson I'm sure was bitching
1:11:20
about it that because it's not the regular thing and Huckabee saying that
1:11:26
it is is actually not true remember was it Angelina Jolie she was going to she
1:11:36
went to Ukraine or something and her her guard got conscripted right there
1:11:42
her bodyguard was a Ukrainian and he got taken into custody and sent off to the
1:11:48
front is is what the story was I don't know if that actually ended up happening
1:11:52
or if she was able to save him you know pay him off and and he got to stay but
1:11:57
these sort of border things happen all the time and you can't read huge things
1:12:02
into him mr. Carlson Tucker one each blue in color he always wears a blue
1:12:11
suit it appears to me and the ex-israeli prime minister says Carlson's a phony
1:12:20
that's what he said he said he's a phony so enough dolly Bennett has accused the
1:12:28
US media figure of talking about but not knowing Israel former Israeli prime
1:12:34
minister enough to leave Bennett denounced talk show host Carlson for his
1:12:38
visit to Israel calling him a chicken shit and a phony Carlson a conservative
1:12:47
commentator who questions Israel's influence on US foreign policy as do I I
1:12:53
assume I'd be detained as well and asked a few questions but they'd let me in you
1:12:59
know they might not like it but that's how they screw with you they are what
1:13:04
what do I do civic outlaws civic outlaws has a show on Friday and we talk about
1:13:09
government overreach or government I don't know what to call it big
1:13:17
stickishness I have a big stick cuz I'm the government and I got the power mr.
1:13:22
Carlson sit over there we'll get to you when we get to you why because we don't
1:13:30
like you we disagree with your chicken shit phony point of view that is what the
1:13:38
the narrative is Bennett a right-wing politician who led Israel's government
1:13:45
from 21 to 22 reacting negatively taunted Carlson for not leaving the
1:13:51
airport and criticized Israel without having experienced life there Tucker
1:13:58
Carlson is a chicken shit he said the next time he talks about Israel as if
1:14:03
he's some expert just remember this guy's a phony Carlson told the Daily
1:14:09
Mail that he faced hostility in Israel and that local authorities detained his
1:14:15
executive producer demanding to know the content of his interview with Huckabee
1:14:20
now that wouldn't surprise me truthfully the ambassador said Carlson
1:14:24
and his team went through the same security procedures he undergoes upon
1:14:28
arrival so the ambassador says he you know when he arrived he had to do that
1:14:32
to Huckabee and Carlson clashed online over what Carlson calls Israel's
1:14:37
mistreatment of local Christians an issue he claimed that Huckabee had
1:14:42
failed to address ambassador suggested it Carlson speak to him directly airport
1:14:46
officials confirmed that the conversation took place in the VIP lounge
1:14:50
of the airport that Tucker Carlson Network released an interview with
1:14:55
Palestinian American Christian leader for us Abram who said his West Bank
1:15:00
hometown of Bates Ahura risk losing its Christian majority due to pressure from
1:15:05
Jewish settlers backed by Israel Carlson said he met with Huckabee whom he
1:15:09
described as a Christian Zionist and neocon that's all true
1:15:13
Huckabee's are all neocons well if you go by what you know the rest and
1:15:18
therefore someone he disagrees with because he expected the discussion to
1:15:23
remain civil there is no reason for any conversation about American foreign
1:15:29
policy to devolve into Jews versus everyone else or everyone versus the
1:15:35
Jews or any of this stuff it's all awful there are some people in this
1:15:40
conversation maybe on both sides who want to inspire hate and that's not a
1:15:46
good idea for anyone now that's a statement I can generally back myself
1:15:51
you know I I'm not pro I'm not anti I'm a middle of the rotor and I'm also
1:15:59
against us forever being the lapdog of Israel I don't like it and never have
1:16:06
in fact what makes them so special that they get over that country so special
1:16:11
that it gets to control every other Western country why is that I don't know
1:16:19
I've heard lots of lots of stories about why it is but I don't take a
1:16:22
position about why it is I just know that it is it is and I don't like it
1:16:28
period end of sentence I can't comment on exactly how it came about there's
1:16:34
plenty of history on all sides of that there's plenty of reason to support
1:16:40
without second thought everything Israeli because they've been shit upon
1:16:46
for centuries okay but just because they were taken into custody by Pharaoh in
1:16:53
Egypt and then let out by Moses who split the Red Sea for them so they could
1:16:59
get to a new land that doesn't mean today they are the chosen ones I
1:17:08
disagree and it does you know they've been beaten up through history you know
1:17:12
I talked on this channel about Ukrainians slaughtering tons of Jews in
1:17:17
Poland during World War two on behalf of the Hitler regime okay that that's does
1:17:23
that I mean Ukrainians are still allowed into Israel hell that's where the guy ran
1:17:29
who what's his name one of the former advisors that stole the hundred million
1:17:35
bucks and ran off to Israel hanging out on the beaches in Israel they have
1:17:39
pictures of him and that anyway that's what happened boy I've been all over the
1:17:44
freaking map today sorry but I've just let the conversation go where it's
1:17:47
wanting to go I'm still pissy about my electric bill and so we'll call today
1:17:53
the the bitch Network and Sam's been complaining about that but I really did
1:18:00
have some topics that I wanted to get to and I'm gonna get into more detail
1:18:07
about this on Friday on civic outlaws okay I still have you know and and my
1:18:16
show last well I did it Friday but had to do it again Saturday because I cocked
1:18:21
up the recording device and didn't record so I had to do it again on
1:18:26
Valentine's Day which I did I think last Saturday was Valentine's Day and so I did
1:18:31
it then you know I've decided that the first reason it didn't get recorded was
1:18:36
because that show wasn't as good as the winner and it really wasn't I it allowed
1:18:42
me a dry run for the next day and I think you should go back on my channel
1:18:48
and on the new channel that we have created with its own website but I don't
1:18:52
remember I think it's gonna be podcast dot civic outlaws dot-com because we're
1:18:58
gonna do it every month or maybe it's gonna be civic outlaws dot-com forward
1:19:01
slash podcast I don't know but we're gonna talk about local and statewide
1:19:08
bureaucratic overreach maybe Department of Homeland Security people examining
1:19:14
you when you come into the country and being quite selective because discretion
1:19:18
is what it's all about and that discretion rarely gets overturned by a
1:19:25
court there's something out there called qualified immunity on the federal level
1:19:32
and official immunity on the Missouri level I one day I'm gonna do a whole
1:19:38
show on civic outlaws about that and about the need for change on that front
1:19:44
and I'm I don't say I'm an expert I'm a mid-level very knowledgeable person on
1:19:52
qualified and executive and prosecutorial and judicial and official
1:20:02
immunity qualified and official immunity are the two I bitch about the
1:20:06
most I can sell the others but you know I want to give a show completely on
1:20:12
immunity but I plan to on Friday go into a little bit more the show that I
1:20:17
gave last week gave an introduction into the Chevron doctrine and the
1:20:22
overturning of 536 dot 140 here in Missouri not overturning the adjustment
1:20:28
where the legislature finally got it right the amendment of that which took
1:20:32
effect August 28 of last year which limits freaking bureaucracy and that is
1:20:38
important it's probably more important than all the crap I talked about here at
1:20:43
least for this channel because it's local and you feel it you know you will
1:20:48
feel it shield maidens I'd listen to a couple of their programs but I got to
1:20:51
admit I've been encouraged to listen to what the recent one and and the last
1:20:56
time I listened to him I shouldn't admit this but it's great program and I like
1:21:00
listening to them and I find them entertaining and very very informative
1:21:04
and well-spoken and knowledgeable these are people that care and these are
1:21:10
people that are doing something about it you know what I mean and that's how I
1:21:15
feel when I listen to their program it's you know I don't agree with everything
1:21:18
they say but I'm not required to you know you're not required to agree with
1:21:22
everything I say but I hope it gives you something to think about there's a lot
1:21:26
to think about you know there's a lot to understand and I don't understand at
1:21:30
all you know I sit around and bitch just like everybody else and I got my bitches
1:21:36
and there's something I'm gonna bitch about right now that I think I can get in
1:21:40
before the end of the show this is about a 10-minute read and if I don't we'll
1:21:45
continue it on Civic Outlaws on Friday but I'm gonna call it it could be part of
1:21:50
an article I'm gonna write and I think I might do is a working draft article for
1:21:55
Civic Outlaws and it's got I'm gonna call it the checklist state when
1:22:03
agencies forms quietly become the law okay so they create a form and suddenly
1:22:09
you're off we sent out a sunshine request you should get on Civic Outlaws
1:22:15
calm and keep track of what we're doing because we're doing some cool stuff and
1:22:20
we need your support we need your help we need your money more than that because
1:22:25
this crap's expensive and they don't want us to get it so I believe they
1:22:29
artificially inflate the charges that's what I believe and so we want to be
1:22:33
extremely open about this I told you that a friend of mine when we were doing
1:22:38
another founder of Civic Outlaws paid over $5,000 I want to say it was closer
1:22:44
to six to get 4,500 and then another 300 it might be the global amount was about
1:22:52
5,000 pages of information and they didn't they gave it on a zip drive but
1:22:59
then they printed it all out copied it all out made him pay for two copies this
1:23:03
BS by the way everybody gets everything electronically right now and people
1:23:09
don't even review stuff in paper somebody's asking me the other day about
1:23:12
paper I was like now I'm gonna scan that shred it but I got a good shredder it's
1:23:18
I just got it and so I'm happy with that too and so I want to shred everything and
1:23:23
everything I have is electronic the end end of sentence move about smartly so
1:23:29
I'm gonna share with you because time is running out our checklist I think my
1:23:34
working draft title is called the checklist state when an agency form
1:23:38
quietly becomes the law and it's because there are two and you know what I'm not
1:23:43
gonna even read the article I'll make the article on Sunday I'll just talk
1:23:46
about it between now and the end of the program okay to prep you for what we're
1:23:50
gonna do come Friday I'm gonna have an article for you finalized and and I'll
1:23:55
publish it on my what do you call it channel my LinkedIn is where I put it
1:24:00
it'll be me Samuel trap you know the one I wrote last week on on the Chevron
1:24:08
doctrine and the overturning of five seven not overturning and why do I use
1:24:12
that word the adjustment amendment of 573.140 really it it's it means it means
1:24:21
that you should be suing every single bureaucrat that crosses the line that
1:24:27
that takes the law into his own interpretation by form by email by
1:24:34
overbearing activity toward a license holder which is the point on that case
1:24:39
that article was about the founding of civic outlaws and we founded it we're
1:24:44
we're pushing we are absolutely pushing and and we're gonna have a charitable
1:24:50
event before too long we're having a little bit of scheduling problem but I
1:24:54
want to talk about that as well we're gonna have a charity event where I'm you
1:24:57
know we'll get up and talk maybe invite some people for a debate wouldn't
1:25:02
that be fun at any rate the on Friday I would like to share with you the
1:25:10
beginnings of this article about the checklist and here's what it is okay so
1:25:15
our argument and our knowledge my knowledge is that the alcohol tobacco
1:25:21
control people have never been given authority to do some of the things that
1:25:27
they do I keep going back and looking and going all right where's the authority
1:25:31
there's a cryptic sentence in their 311 chapter that's their home they have two
1:25:41
homes that the legislature has given them and these homes reside in 311 and
1:25:48
407 311 is alcohol licensing alcohol licensure alcohol control 407 is tobacco
1:26:01
they control tobacco and alcohol okay so alcohol and tobacco and yet on their
1:26:09
form on their checklist which they've created this is and people are subject
1:26:14
to I don't know when you get a license okay I've gotten liquor licenses for a
1:26:20
couple of bars that I was involved in one that I owned by myself that I could
1:26:25
tell some stories about certain individuals stealing it from me and
1:26:30
causing lawyers in fact and I might tell that story at some point but I had to
1:26:37
get a liquor license for that establishment and I've been through the
1:26:41
process and there's a checklist you know that they come in and they'll
1:26:45
inspect you and so you're subject having a liquor license to getting inspected
1:26:49
from this and there's a form they use for that and this form that they've
1:26:53
created has changed over the years and I we at the civic outlaws have requested
1:27:02
the form the blank forms you know we've we've asked for the blank form what is
1:27:07
the blank form for this and every version of that blank form back to the
1:27:15
change in the law of 573 chapter 573 is a criminal statute that I want to know
1:27:23
what changes were made to the alcohol inspection form after a criminal statute
1:27:29
which by the way 311 and 407 do not grant the authority to liquor control to
1:27:36
police or to do criminal investigations based on that chapter okay there's no
1:27:43
I talk about enabling statutes you guys know what that means because I've talked
1:27:48
about it but I want you to pay attention particularly on Friday because I'm
1:27:52
Friday I've started an article that is called the checklist state when an
1:27:58
agency form quietly becomes new law quietly becomes new law they're creating
1:28:04
their own law with a freaking checklist and telling people what they got to do
1:28:09
you want to look at bureaucratic overreach go to ATC friends and
1:28:13
neighbors we're doing it and we're going to these guys regulate everything on
1:28:18
their little checklist they're checking their checklist didn't of gambling
1:28:22
machines they don't have any authority to regulate gambling zip they haven't
1:28:29
been given the authority to regulate that but they are and so let's just
1:28:35
stretch our agency to whatever we want why because we're police they call
1:28:39
themselves a police department and then they deny it but it's on their freaking
1:28:43
forms for years we will talk more about this come Friday but I apologize for
1:28:50
being all over the map on my show this morning I hope it was interesting for
1:28:53
