1:53
indiscriminate hate. According to Acting US Attorney Joseph Thompson, the

2:13
US Attorney. The Trump administration has approved eight hundred and
2:17
twenty five million dollars in arms sales to the Ukraine,

3:07
from Syrian and Arab media, Kentucky Governor Andy Basher's under
3:12
fire because his administration not only was giving driver's licenses
3:16
to illegal immigrants, they were selling them for two hundred
3:20
dollars a license. A follow up to a story we
3:23
had for Fun and Frolic, the Rhode Island Assistant Attorney
3:27
General who was caught on police camera saying I'm an ag,
3:32
I'm an age while she was being ushered out of
3:35
a restaurant. A special Assistant Attorney General, Devin Flanagan, who's
3:40
the young lady in the video we played for you,
3:42
was arrested and has now been placed on six months
3:46
of unpaid leave. And those are our first things this morning.
3:50
So now let's see what doctor Clark has for us.
3:53
Thank you for hanging on with us in the news.
3:57
I got a text message Clark, and I want to
3:59
apologie if if you took umbrage. Jerry wrote into four
4:05
three four eighty two four two one seven. He said, Joe,
4:08
I think doctor Clark was trying to make the point
4:11
that we as societies have ways of saying things like
4:15
thou shalt not murder. And what doctor Clark may have
4:18
been pointing out was that teaching kids you can't yell
4:21
fire in a crowded theater is just another way we
4:24
try to teach children how to behave in a society. Ps.
4:30
Please tell me doctor Clark is a real doctor and
4:32
not one of those guys who has a PhD in
4:35
ancient Mesopotamian art. Uh So, Clark, I appreciate you hanging
4:40
on the line. Uh so you got fans out there.
4:42
Thank you Jerry for the text. So did did Jerry
4:46
catch what you were trying to say? And I didn't.
4:49
Speaker 8: So before we move on towards Jerry wants me to
4:52
be on the age thing, Joe, good policy. Anytime you're
4:58
getting arrested, Mike, sure and tell the police just exactly
5:01
who you are.
5:02
Speaker 6: They'll be interested.
5:05
Speaker 8: So, yeah, we teach that you're not allowed to yell
5:09
fire in a crowded theater if there's not a fire, right,
5:13
because why well, it's a lie with a high probability
5:18
with horrendous results and just generally harming the general welfare.
5:22
Right now, put that off to the side, because we're
5:25
going to bounce around for a second. But then I'm
5:27
taking you somewhere.
5:28
Speaker 6: Got you. I saw where the.
5:33
Speaker 8: American Association of Pediatricians had taken a position very different
5:40
from that of RFK Jr. And I thought, yes on
5:46
the outood vaccines. And I said, well, let me look
5:49
at something. So I looked up the American Association a
5:53
Pediatricians position on transgenderism. M I'm not really interested in
6:02
what their position is on anything anymore.
6:04
Speaker 6: Joe didn't like their answer.
6:07
Speaker 8: Need to look at what their position is there, because
6:10
they're all about affirming that.
6:13
Speaker 6: Okay.
6:15
Speaker 8: Now, then I'm listening to the radio this morning and
6:20
I'm hearing the Minneapolis mayor BLOVI eight and we need
6:25
a national gun van YadA, YadA, YadA. And then I thought,
6:30
you know, Trump is Hitler, He's.
6:35
Speaker 6: A fascist, etc.
6:38
Speaker 9: Etc.
6:38
Speaker 6: Etc.
6:40
Speaker 8: And then you look at what we just had with
6:42
the school shooting in Minneapolis, Joe yelling fire and a
6:48
crowded theater if there's not one, ain't all that bad
6:50
compared to what we let happen every day.
6:53
Speaker 6: Hang on to that thought one second, because I want
6:55
to see where this floor program is going to land
6:59
in a moment.
6:59
Speaker 2: On first thing today, Let's see if something costs less
7:03
a lot less, but people are actually happier with it.
7:06
That sounds like something to look into. And that's meta share.
7:10
Maybe you've heard joining metashare can save you or your
7:12
family up to five hundred bucks a month, and that's huge,
7:15
But it's also true. People are just happier with it.
7:18
They love being part of something that reflects and promotes
7:21
their values and what they believe in. Meda Share works too.
7:24
It's been around for thirty years now and members have
7:27
shared more than seven billion dollars of each other's bills.
7:31
People love having telehealth and a huge nationwide Ppo network.
7:35
So yeah, really you can save a ton and like
7:37
it better. Imagine being happy with how you're taking care
7:40
of your health care, whether you're self employed or part
7:42
of the gig economy, or you just want to plan
7:44
that you're happy with.

7:51
Here's the number you need. It's eight five to five share,
7:54
forty eight five five share forty eight five five share.
7:59
Speaker 10: Forty Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
8:08
actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
8:13
oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
8:18
to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
8:23
By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
8:28
and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
8:32
and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
8:36
precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
8:39
energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
8:42
your hands and feet. Well, our product, ultimate nitric Oxide,
8:47
can easily help fix this lack of nitric oxide. Go

9:53
or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example
9:56
of an infection that can spread from person to person.

from NITZA and the AD Councils radio.
12:56
Speaker 3: It's onund.
13:12
Speaker 1: On a need to know basis, because you need to
13:15
know the first thing today.
13:18
Speaker 2: What's good.
13:22
Speaker 3: You don't want to know.
13:31
Speaker 8: There's a female and wants your name to reflect that
13:33
identification was underage.
13:35
Speaker 2: It's now Robin Westman, Robin and Westman, twenty three years old.
13:39
Speaker 7: When you have mass shooting investigations so often, there is
13:42
a pattern.
13:42
Speaker 2: I think police are trying to get after that tonight.
13:44
Speaker 16: You know, you see obviously some real clues here as
13:46
to what a motive could be, but they're not saying
13:49
formally what it is yet.
13:50
Speaker 6: We don't have a motive at this time.
13:51
Speaker 14: It's unclear what the motive was.
13:53
Speaker 9: Again, there's just nothing specific in the evidence that's been recovered.
13:57
Speaker 18: There's no information, nothing specific to identify a specific motive.
14:02
But they'll be continuing to talk to people to see
14:04
if there was a flag, if something may have popped
14:07
up that they can look into.
14:08
Speaker 14: There's no clear motive, and that's what we want to know.
14:11
Speaker 19: Was this a revenge sing.
14:12
Speaker 14: Because there were prior affiliations to the school?
14:15
Speaker 10: Is this notoriety the.
14:16
Speaker 20: Should identified We are told as female legally change their
14:19
name from Robert to Robin.
14:20
Speaker 14: There's no connection yet from that to the motive.
14:23
Speaker 21: I don't believe that how the shooter identifies currently in
14:27
this investigation right now is of significant importance.
14:31
Speaker 1: The mayor also calling on people to quote stop villainizing
14:34
the trans community after learning that the suspect, who was
14:38
born male identified as females.
14:40
Speaker 14: Spoke about this so profoundly and powerfully.
14:44
Speaker 21: I have heard about a whole lot of hate that's
14:46
being directed at our trans community. Anybody that is going
14:50
to use this as an opportunity to villainize our trans community.
14:55
Speaker 22: This is not the time to jump to conclusions.
14:58
Speaker 6: No, it's not at all, not at all, So let
14:59
us jump to conclusions right right before we jump to conclusions,
15:02
let's tell you that this is not the time to
15:06
jump to conclusions. There was a conclusion in the offering
15:10
there and thematically we've said there are societal norms. Doctor
15:15
Clark was heading that way with the fire, and that
15:19
yelling fire in a crowded theater is preferable seemingly to
15:22
where we are now. Doctor Clark, appreciate it, well, said point.
15:29
And I think this, if I can pick up on
15:31
what you said and let you finish your floor routine here,
15:36
that as we watch the baby boomers, those children of hate,
15:42
Ashbury and Bethel, New York and the Woodstock Music and
15:48
Arts Festival, the Summer of Love. If it feels good,
15:52
do it generation. First, their manifestation in young adulthood was
15:56
the drug crazes of the seventies, then the the greed
16:00
and avarice of the eighties. There's a there's a self indulgent,
16:05
selfishness that I see in these in these supposed flower children.
16:10
And now as they've reached this elder statesman role in
16:14
our society, we're still we're still crippled with this idea
16:18
that we can make it up as we go along
16:20
and there are no societal rules, and that was that
16:23
was for your your parents' generation. Is that what you're
16:29
sensing to, Yes, somewhat.
16:33
Speaker 20: So you know, if we're going to have an admonition
16:38
that you're not allowed to tell a lie because there
16:42
are very foreseeable horrible circumstances or results.
16:49
Speaker 8: Why are we not calling out lies every day.
16:55
Speaker 6: That currently have horrible results?
17:00
Speaker 15: You know?
17:01
Speaker 8: The mother, the mother here, probably there was a certain
17:05
amount of intimidation for her to just go along with
17:10
her son's transitioning. They were in what state, Minnesota?
17:14
Speaker 6: Yeah, hmmm, I.
17:17
Speaker 8: Don't know from what I've seen, she could have been
17:20
jailed if she'd have said something contrary to Oh well
17:23
this is okay.
17:24
Speaker 6: If that's what you want to do, go ahead and
17:25
do it.
17:26
Speaker 8: Because the pediatrician says this is what we should do.
17:29
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, I mean the kid. The kid's twenty three,
17:31
but I mean current current educational policies and a lot
17:35
of these places, like Minneapolis is is called child protective services.
17:39
If you if you deny, you know this he was.
17:42
Speaker 8: He was a minor when he started down this road.
17:45
Speaker 6: Yeah, so you know, no, Joe, if we won't call
17:49
this out, who will. Well, we have and and hopefully
17:55
cooler heads prevail. It's not going to bring back the
17:58
two dead children, but hopefully we can start preventing the
18:01
next dead children by getting the truth and the reality
18:06
out here in the messaging, uh and in the coverage anyway.
18:10
And it's not without compassion. As I said earlier, compassion
18:15
is not the same thing as indulgence. That be a
18:18
fair statement.
18:20
Speaker 23: I think.
18:20
Speaker 8: I just think it's horrible that when we have policies
18:25
that give people the psychosis and then affirm the psychosis
18:33
and then make it worse with drugs. Hey, let's give
18:36
them psychoacative drugs and some hormones.
18:39
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, it it's well said. Let me get some
18:43
other folks in here, doctor Clark. I appreciate it, sir.
18:46
Keep doing what you do and we do.
18:49
Speaker 8: In Mesopotamia, it was the land between the rivers, though it's.
18:54
Speaker 6: The land between the you know where Mesopotamia is. Yeah,
18:58
as yeah, he is a veterinarian by the way, when
19:02
I call him doctor Clark. But there are plenty of
19:04
people out there with you know, who will tell you
19:07
very loudly that they are they are a doctor, and
19:10
that they that they have you know, some some sort
19:14
of you know, and then you're supposed to say, oh,
19:16
you're a doctor. Okay, So doctor Johnny Fever here on
19:21
w k RP not in Cincinnati. James Luck, our friend
19:25

20:30
bars on your desk is quite a message you send, right.
20:35
Speaker 19: That's absolutely right.
20:36
Speaker 24: And a pretty expensive paper weight as well, and that's
20:39
why I usually just people buy a ten outs far

Speaker 1: Making mornings great again. First Thing Today on the Talk
28:16
Media Network by Joe Thomas.
28:39
Speaker 6: It's a bad medicine. Mary writes in, I agree with you,
28:43
but I'm disquieted. Joe. I feel like this discussion is
28:48
not one that should be had publicly. Well, unfortunately, I
28:53
don't have any other way to have it with you.
28:56
I mean, unless you're inviting me over. And I think
29:00
it's but I do think it's a discussion that needs
29:02
to be had. We don't have a problem with the
29:07
you know, free love, peace and you know, devolution of
29:10
our society generation talking, you know, marching up and down
29:14
the streets of Hayde Ashbury in the sixties. We didn't
29:19
have a problem with discussing those things publicly. And that's
29:25
the thing is the Marxist seems to have a monopoly
29:32
on the things that you're supposed to we're not supposed
29:35
to talk about. That's what we have to be careful
29:41
of is because that's how they That's the the self censorship,
29:46
if you will marry, it's the idea of I don't
29:49
want people to think I'm a ghoul, so I'm not
29:51
going to bring anything up. And you'll say, well, you
29:54
don't know. Of course we don't know, but you know,
29:57
we're not their child or their power. But we are
30:01
parents and we do have our children, and we do
30:03
have an important role to play in the next instance.
30:07
This isn't about Minneapolis as much as it is trying
30:12
to forestall the next time, and not in a Department
30:20
of Homeland Security way where they can tell you, well,
30:22
we stopped twenty eight terrorist attacks and nobody ever says, hey,
30:27
how do you prove something didn't happen?
30:32
Speaker 19: Really?
30:33
Speaker 6: Get back to four three four eight eight two four
30:36
two one seven. Good morning, are on the air with
30:38
Joe Thomas. First thing this morning. Who's this? This is much?
30:42
Oh hey near Mesopotavia. You know it's it's sad when
30:47
you realize the kind of governance that governs the birthplace
30:50
of humanity and the Tigris and Euphrates River Valley. But anyway,
30:56
what's on your mind?
30:56
Speaker 5: Sir?
30:59
Speaker 9: Well, I don't once you got my email messager show message.
31:03
But what Clark's saying. This all went back with this kid.
31:08
It started when Mackeen Waters during in twenty fifteen twenty sixteen,
31:14
was telling all these young people in the world and
31:16
all over Minnesota and all the other cities on national
31:20
TV with the media saying, get in these guys spaces,
31:23
get into conservative spaces. Don't let them win. And now
31:27
with Kracket saying We're not gonna let them win, Hakeem Jeffries,
31:32
We're gonna you'll get in their face. We're gonna take
31:34
care of them. We're gonna not let them win, do
31:36
whatever it takes to stop them. So and then at seventeen,
31:42
he goes to change his name because he feels he's
31:46
transgendered in the Girl, but he only feels he's transgendered,
31:51
I believe because he wants to fit in with the
31:54
transgendered community because in the in the Four Lights and
32:00
get y'all famous, because he never went through as far
32:05
as I know, no one said anything about him going
32:07
through any puberty blockers.
32:09
Speaker 6: No, he hasn't done anything medical as far as I
32:12
can tell, there are no medical histories.
32:16
Speaker 9: Right, So that tells me that the judge, when they
32:19
went in front the judge, the judge should be lose
32:24
his law license for malpractice because the first thing he
32:27
should actually said was, Hey, this kid needs a psychiatric
32:31
evaluation to determine why he really wants to be a girl,
32:37
because for what for what six years he never did
32:42
anything to technically transgendered except for his hair.
32:48
Speaker 6: And I have long hair, and I'm certainly not in
32:51
the transgender community. And I understand the pain of hating yourself.
32:56
I think a lot of us have gone through at
32:58
some point, and especially in teen years. And this is
33:01
one of the points I don't think I can make
33:03
enough in this story, Bob, is that you know when
33:07
a teenager, especially in the tweens the thirteen forty, you're
33:11
going through so much stuff that this is the most
33:14
acute time for needing parental involvement, guidance, ears, and real compassion,
33:23
not indulgence, because that's where you know so much of
33:29
you know the pain that these kids wind up with
33:32
as adults are programmed in. I feel like anyway your
33:36
thought right.
33:39
Speaker 9: And this is where it's all come down to the
33:42
Medical Association, the doctors, the AMA, doctor Fauci, all these
33:48
liberals are in it for the money. They don't give
33:52
a crap about what they're doing to a child, because
33:56
none of these doctors are putting them in psychiatric Here
34:00
the first thing, if a child at school goes to
34:03
a counselor and says, hey, I want to be a girl.
34:07
I think I should be a girl of six, seven, eight, nine, ten,
34:10
whatever the age is. If they're under eighteen, the first
34:12
callege should be the parents. The second call they should
34:15
be referred to social services to get help through a
34:21
psychologist or a psychiatric to find out what's causing him,
34:26
him or her to feel this way. Have they been
34:28
abused sexually and that's what's causing them to be that way.
34:32
There is so much of the medical community is avoiding
34:35
because they want the big billions of dollars industry. They're
34:39
making same thing with the drug companies, and they should
34:41
be held accountable.
34:43
Speaker 6: Thank you for trying to do that, Bobby. You have
34:45
a good morning, sir.
34:48
Speaker 9: Yep, you too.
34:49
Speaker 6: Our Attorney general here in the flagship state of Virginia
34:53
is trying to do that. He's trying to get school divisions,
34:59
and we have school divisions. We reported on this program
35:02
taking kids to abortion clinics without telling parents. The Virginia
35:07
schools are some of the worst when it comes to
35:11
circumventing the parents, and it's an issue that's on the
35:16
gubernatorial ballot. I love the story. Yet another poll here
35:20
in Virginia shows the race tighter. It was seven points,
35:23
now it's five. The Governor Glenn Youngkin has weighed in
35:29
and has now started to put his shoulder behind the race,
35:33
and Abigail Spanberger said that she's going to make Virginia
35:36
a sanctuary state. When she's elected, and these schools are
35:42
circumventing the parents time and time again. And what Bob's
35:48
saying isn't wrong. Quick point. Well, I will circle back
35:52
to something I saw in this kid's manifesto when we
35:56
come back. But Mac McDonald is here us some sports
36:01
for us this morning, Mac, what do you have?
36:04
Speaker 3: Good morning Joe.
36:05
Speaker 32: Here are the stories we are following on this Friday.
36:07
Keith Jackson's famous line holds up, It's time to light

36:13
Speaker 32: Seventeen NC two A games were showcased last night as
36:16
Week one began five straight days of college football. Eleven
36:20
more contests are tonight and then Saturday kicks off with
36:22
Ohio State in Texas. BUCKEYEAD coach Ryan Day is seventy
36:26
and ten in his seventh season in Columbus. O ISU
36:29
was also coming off of Natty. Texas is the underdog tomorrow. However,
36:33
coach Day, who will break in two new coordinators, is
36:36
anxious to see how his transfers and young players perform.
36:40
Speaker 2: I say it's like raising a sun or having children.
36:42
Speaker 22: You know, you bring them along, you show them, you
36:44
see the growth, but ultimately they have to go live
36:46
their life.
36:46
Speaker 6: Well, it's the same thing here. They got to go
36:48
play the game now, and we're ready to go.
36:50
Speaker 32: Play Texas and Ohio State begins Saturday at twelve noon.
36:53
We'll have Thursdays wrap up next hour. One other note,
36:56
a fake post on a Clemson fan site stated their
36:59
quarterback kid Clubnick, was injured in a car accident and
37:02
wouldn't be available for the LSU game tomorrow night. It
37:06
upset the entire club Nick family, and Caid told the world,
37:09
all is okay.
37:10
Speaker 26: You know, interesting to talk about anymore, but yeah, it
37:13
was just it was a messed up joke and whatever.
37:16
Speaker 6: But I'm okay, Thank you, Mac, and he'll be along
37:20
with his notebook. Next hour. Four three, four eight eight
37:23
two four to two one seven is the phone number.
37:26
Emails come in to JT in the morning radio headgmail
37:31
dot com, so you can get to us there as
37:34
well through that, and we'll get further into the manifesto.
37:39
And something I thought, and maybe it didn't stand out
37:42
to you in the bits that we read into the
37:45
program yesterday morning that were excerpted in the New York
37:49
Post and more now being released by the US Attorney
37:53
for Minneapolis, and I don't know. It seemed like a
37:58
red flag to me.

Speaker 10: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
39:07
bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
39:13
im doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
39:18
optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
39:22
nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
39:27
reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
39:32
The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
39:37
has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
39:42
cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
39:46
in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
39:51
healthy cells even from radiation. Totalwellness dot com where we

41:01
a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals. I'm
41:05
not only in alle of their beauty and kindness, but
41:07
also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the birds
41:09
who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes who
41:13
work hard to provide for their young, or penguins who
41:16
travel up to five hundred miles to secure food for
41:18
their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows them
41:21
to navigate the trees and the wild in search of fruit.
41:24
This remarkable work ethic is shared by our best friends,
41:27
the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets at home,
41:30
but because of their acute senses, they also perform life
41:33
saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe at airports.
41:36
They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTSS.
41:39
They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change
41:42
in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of
41:45
highly trained roles that contribute to society and help those
41:47
in need. So please join me an American Humane and
41:50

42:01
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, yeah, he's starting with the woots.
42:05
Speaker 14: And now a speech.
42:07
Speaker 16: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
42:10
heart and brain.
42:12
Speaker 6: Who's with me?
42:13
Speaker 31: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and my
42:16
brain is saying when it's time to go home.
42:18
Speaker 28: Somebody call me a ride.
42:20
Speaker 14: Love that guy, me too.
42:21
Speaker 7: Know your buzzed warning signs, Call for a ride when
42:24
it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
42:29
Speaker 15: Did you know that more than half our household energy
42:31
costs go to heating and cooling. Energy efficiency isn't just
42:35
good for the environment, It means lower utility bills too.
42:40
One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
42:42
energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
42:46
learn how to do it yourself at energysavers dot gov.
42:49
That's energysavers dot gov. You'll learn to look for air
42:53
leaks around windows and doors, check ducks for holes, and
42:56
improve your insulation. Another time to cut energy coststs is
43:00
when you shop for a new appliance. Look for the
43:03
energy Star logo and read the Energy Guide label, and
43:06
there are day to day things you can do. Lower
43:09

Speaker 34: As a family member or friend, you may be the
43:33
first to notice when a veteran you love has been
43:35
going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
43:41
anger could be a sign of a larger health concern,
43:44
but help is available. Listen to hundreds of inspiring stories

Speaker 1: Amaze your friends here In First Thing Today by Joe Thomas.
44:22
Speaker 6: Hi, wait what hang on a second here, How do
44:40
you have a free society? Joe? How do you have
44:43
a free society? You understand that a society based on
44:49
liberty is one that's based on the assumption that you
44:54
can be self governing. What's the first thing to get
44:58
you to give that up if you have it, if
45:02
you're one of the rare, gifted, blessed people to live
45:05
in a place that believes that you are self governing,
45:11
is to convince enough of the people that that's not true.
45:19
If you can convince enough people electorally that being self
45:23
governing is not possible and is even worse dangerous, then
45:33
you can get them to vote themselves out of their liberty.
45:38
What safety would you give? And part and parcel of
45:42
why they try to get so many people to give
45:45
up gun ownership, because then you'll have fewer people who
45:52
are vested in the idea of us say a second amendment.
45:56
And go back to doctor Clark who was ramping me
45:58
up when he said, can you fire in a crowded theater?
46:01
The hell I can. I can also be punished for
46:05
the lie I told. See you go back to the
46:09
seventies and eighties, when we went into this fixation of
46:12
taking the Ten Commandments out of schools. Thou thou shalt
46:20
not lie, Thou shalt not steal, thou shall not murder.
46:25
Since then have we started to have a problem with
46:27
all those things. Part of it is honoring thy mother
46:31
and father, government can't have you doing that. Histories mysteries
46:40
right told you. The mother of the child, though you know,
46:45
in tears, was not upset enough to respond to the police.
46:52
The police asked for any information, and she said, this
46:56
is my lawyer's name. The lawyer then said she is
47:05
completely distraught about the situation and has no culpability. But
47:18
then there's the manifesto, and go back to where's the
47:22
US attorney statement on the manifesto of this kid Robert?
47:28
And I say his name because he didn't want to
47:30
be called Robert, So I'm going to call him Robert
47:32
because that was the biology he was born with, and
47:38
he wanted everyone to call him by some other name,
47:40
and I'm not going to do it. US attorney Joseph
47:47
Thompson said Robert left behind pages and pages filled with
47:51
hatred towards Blacks, Mexicans, Christians, and Jews. Thompson, in an
47:58
effort to hide the eight hundred pound ideology in the room, said,
48:03
in short, the shooter appeared to hate all of us. No, no,
48:08
mister Thompson, not all of us. In his manifesto, he
48:13
wrote quite a bit about Moss, you know, that marginalized
48:25
community marginalized, like the transgender community marginalized push to the side.
48:31
He stood with hamas sadly because nobody asked me, and
48:40
he certainly wasn't tuning into kd IZ in Minneapolis to
48:44
hear this radio program Sadly, he doesn't understand that that
48:51
which he supports would not support him back or is
48:59
mahmu Amadinajad once told the crowd of skulls full of
49:05
mush at Columbia University in Neueva York, and New York
49:10
City gets to have an Ivy League school. It's it's
49:13
hidden all the way up in a corner, but it's there.
49:16
Manhattan Islands has an Ivy League school on it. Columbia
49:21
University in Neueva York hosted Mahmud Amedinashad and they asked
49:27
him about the gay community in Iran and his response
49:34
famously is, we have no gays in Iran. And the
49:39
room got very uncomfortably chuckling about the He's not laughing,
49:48
is he? And this is why we go back to
49:58
the clip of all these people falling all over themselves.
50:01
What his ideological views might have been. Funny situation was,
50:07
I don't.
50:07
Speaker 31: Know why this has been a trend lately when it
50:11
comes to shooters. But immediately you'll see a bunch of
50:14
accounts online argue that it's a trans problem, that the
50:17
shooter was trans. A lot of shootings happening all across
50:21
the country from different demographics, but a lot of the
50:23
mass shootings are carried out by young white men.
50:26
Speaker 35: Say demonic, which he was, it's transgender maniac shoots up
50:31
Catholic school. You know, they could very easily say time
50:35
and time again, straight white maniac shoots up.
50:41
Speaker 36: He was information circulating right now. This individual, as far
50:45
as we know, did identify as transgender. However, as we
50:49
look at the spectrum of mass casualty events in our
50:52
nation's history, there have been a range of motivations and
50:56
range of profiles.
50:57
Speaker 6: All those battles in the Civil War which we alcohol
51:00
mass casualty events, and there were no trans men there. Lunacy,
51:06
I mean, I swear all these people should be in
51:08
concussion protocol the way they display. But when you look
51:14
at the hatred towards Christianity and Catholicism and Jews and
51:19
the Jews, oh the Jews in Israel, poor marginalized Hamas,
51:26
and this kid so thoroughly misprogrammed by the media and
51:33
the activist class in the United States believed that if
51:37
he was to bring on a world where Hamas was
51:40
in charge, that he would he would finally find that
51:43
nirvana where he would be accepted as the transgender person
51:51
that he was. And I say this not out of facetiousness,
51:56
but my heart breaks because this is my industry doing this.
52:01
We're the megaphone for this nonsense and insanity. And with
52:07
tongue in cheek, I often quote ground Show Marx. I'd
52:10
never want to be a member of a club that
52:12
would have me as a member. But I know me,
52:15
and I know the world I'm in, and I know
52:17
how shallow we are, and I know how desperate we
52:21
are for attention and will do almost anything to get attention.
52:25
So we fall prey to these people who have us.
52:30
Then put the gravitas of our news desk out behind
52:33
these crazy ideas, and you wind up with somebody who
52:37
would have his head chopped off. Sooner than they'd say
52:39
hio to him. As soon as he said, I want
52:42
you to identify me as a woman, even though I'm
52:45
a man, they'd say, how about we identify you as
52:48
a corpse? My name is Bobby.
52:52
Speaker 2: I'm a veteran and lost my leg to a roadside bomb.
52:55
My victory was going from a wheelchair to becoming a
52:58
weightlifting champion.
53:00

Speaker 22: DAV offers veterans of all generations a lifetime of support
