- 1:10Speaker 4: something else along those lines. But please jump back in
- 1:13Speaker 4: with this text message regarding politicians caring about us, Maureen
- 1:21Speaker 4: writes in, but Joe, the Democrats are just gosh darn
- 1:24Speaker 4: so much better. It's seeming like they care about us. Well,

- 1:48Speaker 4: I'm okay. You sound like you have trepidation in your voice.
- 1:51Speaker 4: Are You're not sure? You're okay? You're still doing that
- 1:55Speaker 4: systems check.
- 1:58Speaker 8: I haven't had a paycheck for seven weeks and my
- 2:00Speaker 8: unemployment hasn't even come through, so.
- 2:04Speaker 4: Because of the processing I know. I believe me, I
- 2:07Speaker 4: am living that life ever since we went out on
- 2:10Speaker 4: our own. You know, well, it's it's easy. It's all
- 2:12Speaker 4: fun in games when you can just rely on an
- 2:15Speaker 4: employer to pay you, when you've got to scrape it
- 2:17Speaker 4: together yourself. I mean, it's.
- 2:21Speaker 8: Especially when you don't have savings.
- 2:23Speaker 4: No, it's it. It's one of the reasons we need
- 2:26Speaker 4: to keep you know that. It was Dave Ramsey call
- 2:29Speaker 4: it our emergency fund floating around somewhere.
- 2:34Speaker 8: Yeah, I understand. I wanted to just mention though, I
- 2:39Speaker 8: wonder if John Fetterman kind of helped put this together,
- 2:43Speaker 8: put a little bit of common sense and sanity. He's
- 2:47Speaker 8: really been a surprise for me because you know, you
- 2:50Speaker 8: would think I've heard and I've had patience too, that
- 2:54Speaker 8: have had a stroke and then they I mean certain
- 2:57Speaker 8: things when you see them starting to recover a little bit.
- 3:00Speaker 8: We don't really see the whole recovery. But I've heard
- 3:03Speaker 8: families come back where they're coming in basically for when
- 3:06Speaker 8: they used to come into the arc when Jacksonville for
- 3:10Speaker 8: a kind of a clinic situation. But I've seen him
- 3:14Speaker 8: really make a stand on just trying to bring back
- 3:18Speaker 8: some reality and I'm glad. I hope that this testa
- 3:23Speaker 8: really works. And I also wanted to say to doctor Clark,
- 3:28Speaker 8: because he's a marine that you know, thank you for
- 3:31Speaker 8: his service too.
- 3:32Speaker 4: No amen. And to all the folks who serve volunteer
- 3:36Speaker 4: a Veteran's Day tomorrow and all those who have voluntarily
- 3:41Speaker 4: gone to stand a post to defend our liberty. I
- 3:44Speaker 4: think we need to do a bang up job living
- 3:47Speaker 4: that liberty and not trying to impose our banana republicness
- 3:54Speaker 4: onto our neighbors. Good stuff, Joel, you have a good morning,

- 9:36Speaker 13: diseases than from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines

- 9:44Speaker 13: from illnesses that can cause mistays of work, hospitalization, and
- 9:48Speaker 13: even death. New maccle disease is an infection that can
- 9:51Speaker 13: lead to pneumonia, meningitis, or even a severe blood infection.
- 9:55Speaker 13: That's just one example of an infection that can spread
- 9:58Speaker 13: from person to person. Getting vaccinated can help protect you
- 10:02Speaker 13: and those close to you. I'm doctor Susan Reem of

- 11:05Speaker 11: you recognize them? By their clothes, their age, the way
- 11:10Speaker 11: they speak. Would you notice a sixteen year old boy who.
- 11:13Speaker 14: Got his first job for extra spending money, but to
- 11:16Speaker 14: help feed his little sisters.
- 11:19Speaker 11: Or a mother who's in between jobs and sometimes goes
- 11:22Speaker 11: to bed hungry so her kids can have dinner. Or
- 11:25Speaker 11: a fourteen year old girl who signs up to every after.
- 11:28Speaker 10: School activity not to make friends, but just to get
- 11:30Speaker 10: something to eat.
- 11:33Speaker 15: Or a retiree who fell ill and.

- 12:56Speaker 4: It's on.
- 13:12Speaker 2: Dissolutely hundred to do list. Putting the radio on is
- 13:18Speaker 2: the first thing today.
- 13:20Speaker 5: Oyster teast turkey. It started as a hunger.
- 13:24Speaker 4: If I was young and Eric.
- 13:25Speaker 8: And I was young blended by my hunger, I ignored safety.
- 13:30Speaker 2: I want a cheap fried Turkey.
- 13:34Speaker 4: So from our safety Tips and Tricks department, Charles h
- 13:40Speaker 4: found the graphic he was trying to send to me,
- 13:42Speaker 4: and I think this is this is really one of those,
- 13:45Speaker 4: especially in the days of economic struggle right now. Charles's
- 13:52Speaker 4: tip is be sure to bring up Thanksgiving politics at dinner.
- 13:58Speaker 4: It's going to save money on Christmas gifts. Follow me
- 14:01Speaker 4: for more holiday tips. Yeah, oh yeah, no, no, you
- 14:05Speaker 4: without question you will save yourself a fortune.
- 14:08Speaker 11: Uh.
- 14:10Speaker 4: I don't want more options, but they that was very
- 14:15Speaker 4: well written wherever you found that. That's really good there. Charles,
- 14:19Speaker 4: after the CRS passed, hamp Down in the Treasure Coast says,
- 14:23Speaker 4: after the CR is passed, the RS need to turn
- 14:26Speaker 4: around and tell the d's you you know that talk
- 14:29Speaker 4: we're going to have on the Obamacare subsidies, Well we
- 14:33Speaker 4: decided no, well you know that's that would be what
- 14:38Speaker 4: they do. See, that's the Lucy and Charlie Brown political strategy.
- 14:45Speaker 4: You messed up. You trusted us, And I think what
- 14:54Speaker 4: really needs to happen in this discussion, if you will,
- 14:59Speaker 4: over Obamacare subsidies and the extension of saying is the
- 15:06Speaker 4: point has to be brought up frequently and often that
- 15:10Speaker 4: this subsidy is exactly what we warned you about about
- 15:14Speaker 4: Obamacare in the first place, that it was going to
- 15:19Speaker 4: break the healthcare system. And if we're going to subsidy
- 15:23Speaker 4: the subsidize the premiums, then we might as well. And
- 15:30Speaker 4: this is what they want. This is the quote conservative
- 15:34Speaker 4: solution is just to accept on a limited basis, because
- 15:39Speaker 4: we know government really works well with limitations, doesn't it.
- 15:45Speaker 4: I know it's the way I say it. It's all
- 15:48Speaker 4: in the delivery. Kids don't try this at home because
- 15:56Speaker 4: they will claim that, well, just a little bit of
- 15:59Speaker 4: socialism probably is what's needed. We're such a big and
- 16:03Speaker 4: so poor now. And it's all intentional. It's all to
- 16:11Speaker 4: make you vote in favor of giving up these rights
- 16:15Speaker 4: for the other rights. The rights that John Locke says
- 16:20Speaker 4: very clearly cannot be guarded as rights because they require
- 16:31Speaker 4: and this is from Locke's own treaties, you cannot guarantee
- 16:37Speaker 4: a right that requires the servitude of another human. The
- 16:47Speaker 4: service of another human is whether it's guaranteed healthcare, guaranteed housing,
- 16:53Speaker 4: guaranteed groceries. It requires someone else to work at the
- 17:00Speaker 4: behest of the government to provide these things, to you
- 17:04Speaker 4: at no charge. And the thing about Marxism that people
- 17:12Speaker 4: don't talk about so frequently is that while it certainly
- 17:18Speaker 4: centralizes power in the hands of a very few, while
- 17:22Speaker 4: it certainly will lead to the death and dismemberment and
- 17:27Speaker 4: demise in horrific conditions of multitudes of people in gulags
- 17:36Speaker 4: and other real concentration camps. For all the folks who
- 17:39Speaker 4: march in protests, he's rounding up our neighbors. You mean
- 17:44Speaker 4: the neighbors that weren't citizens.
- 17:45Speaker 18: But there are neighbors.
- 17:53Speaker 4: All those folks who think saying that Donald Trump is
- 17:58Speaker 4: rounding up and taking them to concentration camps, go the
- 18:04Speaker 4: rest of the way into socialism and find out what
- 18:06Speaker 4: real concentration camps are. Go ahead. I won't say I
- 18:17Speaker 4: told you so, of course, I probably won't be allowed
- 18:19Speaker 4: to say I told you so, because I'll be in
- 18:21Speaker 4: the gulag with you. But they need you to vote
- 18:28Speaker 4: it out. They need you to vote in people like
- 18:32Speaker 4: zeyfod mad Money. And he's just the first who is
- 18:42Speaker 4: the city The guy gave his mayoral election victory speech
- 18:47Speaker 4: entirely is it Spanish? We were a sworn country to
- 19:03Speaker 4: defend God given rights we've been driven to a point
- 19:08Speaker 4: thanks to the Great Society of no longer wanting those rights.
- 19:15Speaker 4: We need food and clothing. The desperation measures the things
- 19:23Speaker 4: you look for when you're stranded on a desert island.
- 19:27Speaker 4: And why are we in this position? Because it will
- 19:31Speaker 4: encourage us to vote down the US Constitution. It will
- 19:40Speaker 4: encourage us to come up with creative, nice sounding ways
- 19:45Speaker 4: of talking about indentured servitude for the medical class. Remember,
- 19:50Speaker 4: the very earliest bits of the Patient Protection and Affordable
- 19:54Speaker 4: Care Act created a multi tiered system of medical licensing.
- 20:03Speaker 4: Did some of this actually make it its way through
- 20:07Speaker 4: We have to get Sally Pipes from the Pacific Research
- 20:10Speaker 4: Institute back on. But the very earliest incarnations of the
- 20:14Speaker 4: Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act had to do with
- 20:18Speaker 4: medical education and how that medical schools that receive government
- 20:23Speaker 4: money would change how they licensed doctors. And you see
- 20:30Speaker 4: some of this in how you're treated. So you have
- 20:33Speaker 4: your general practitioner, which is your entry level, maybe slightly
- 20:38Speaker 4: better than a nurse practitioner, but not a whole lot,
- 20:43Speaker 4: and you're allowed to see patients you know enough of
- 20:47Speaker 4: internal medicine to diagnose at a triage level. As we
- 20:54Speaker 4: approach veterans day. What I was told is akin to
- 20:58Speaker 4: a field medic in combat. Get out there, triage the patient,
- 21:04Speaker 4: get them stabilized until a real doctor can see them
- 21:07Speaker 4: back at a hospital. You see this in the development
- 21:12Speaker 4: of all these urgent care facilities, and generally their job
- 21:16Speaker 4: is to check you in and decide which level of
- 21:21Speaker 4: next tier doctor you're going to be referred to, or
- 21:25Speaker 4: if you were going to be referred to them at all,
- 21:29Speaker 4: because they were the ones who would determine if you
- 21:32Speaker 4: got through the bureaucracy or you were just given some
- 21:37Speaker 4: pain meds padded on the took us and told to
- 21:39Speaker 4: go take them and don't take any extra ones past
- 21:43Speaker 4: the end of your prescription, although here's a place you
- 21:45Speaker 4: might be able to get them. So we're already living
- 21:52Speaker 4: through so much of the pain and suffering of the
- 21:54Speaker 4: Affordable Care Act, and it's designed to make us want
- 21:58Speaker 4: even more.
- 22:01Speaker 20: Ay Brandt and her name is Shary I love. She's
- 22:04Speaker 20: a friend of mine whom we were just praying for
- 22:07Speaker 20: because of a surgery she just went through.
- 22:09Speaker 21: Yes, and I am very happy about something you actually
- 22:12Speaker 21: talk about all the time, which.
- 22:13Speaker 2: Is meda share.
- 22:14Speaker 21: That is right.
- 22:15Speaker 20: Yeah, So what was your experience like with meta share
- 22:17Speaker 20: and healthcare ability?
- 22:18Speaker 21: Honestly, brandt seamless and what a blessing that is. When
- 22:21Speaker 21: you're already nervous about a health issue, which I was,
- 22:24Speaker 21: members shared my expenses. There were zero problems. And let
- 22:28Speaker 21: me tell you, having people pray with you when you
- 22:31Speaker 21: call in with your need that.
- 22:32Speaker 20: Is just refreshing.
- 22:34Speaker 21: Yes, that's what it is.
- 22:35Speaker 4: What I keep telling people.
- 22:36Speaker 20: People love meta share and they love saving money. The
- 22:39Speaker 20: typical family can save five hundred dollars a month.
- 22:42Speaker 21: I am very thankful for meta share. It is so different,

- 23:06Speaker 23: Artificial intelligence is everywhere, and now it's helping veterinarians deliver
- 23:11Speaker 23: better care for pets. From AI assisted radiographs that speed
- 23:16Speaker 23: up diagnoses to tools that help spot diseases. AI supports
- 23:20Speaker 23: veterinary teams in exciting ways. We're using AI to develop
- 23:25Speaker 23: personalized cancer treatments, predict chronic conditions like feline kidney disease,
- 23:31Speaker 23: and even streamline record keeping so veterinarians can focus more
- 23:35Speaker 23: on patients. But, as with any new technology, always keep
- 23:40Speaker 23: a human in the loop to maintain the best pet healthcare.
- 23:44Speaker 23: AI is a powerful tool, but not a replacement for
- 23:48Speaker 23: your veterinarians expertise, compassion and judgment, which remains at the
- 23:53Speaker 23: center of our profession. For more information on AI and

- 28:33Speaker 4: So as the test vote has everyone on Twitter, including
- 28:39Speaker 4: on Twitter or the artist formerly known as Twitter, uh,
- 28:42Speaker 4: you know there's still many miles to go. And Hakeem
- 28:45Speaker 4: Jeffrey sure doesn't sound like he likes whatever is coming
- 28:49Speaker 4: out of the Senate. So we'll see what transpires this morning.
- 28:53Speaker 4: So far, I haven't seen anything about Mike Johnson calling
- 28:56Speaker 4: the house back. Maybe that's still to come. Curious if
- 29:02Speaker 4: all this hooting any since late last night has done
- 29:04Speaker 4: anything to gold and silver prices. I tell you, I
- 29:08Speaker 4: tell you not enough o'son smooth for your humble host.
- 29:11Speaker 4: You know, to segue right into a visit with James
- 29:14Speaker 4: Luck from the Jefferson Coin Shop jcsgold dot com, a
- 29:18Speaker 4: family business to help you invest in gold and silver,
- 29:21Speaker 4: not a call center. Morning, James, how are you, sir?
- 29:25Speaker 29: I'm joing well, Joe, And we started to kind of
- 29:28Speaker 29: feel little, you know, signals on Friday. Friday afternoon, gold
- 29:32Speaker 29: and silver seemed to really stabilize, and you know, we
- 29:36Speaker 29: just kind of got this feeling, and a lot of
- 29:38Speaker 29: our clients mentioned it as well, that it seemed like
- 29:41Speaker 29: gold and silver had bottom for a little while and
- 29:43Speaker 29: they might start running up and then, man, that is
- 29:46Speaker 29: the case. This morning, gold is up two percent of
- 29:50Speaker 29: eighty dollars to four thousand and eighty dollars so far
- 29:53Speaker 29: this morning. Silver up even bigger, knocking on the fifty
- 29:58Speaker 29: dollars door at the moment, up three and a third
- 30:01Speaker 29: percent to forty nine dollars and ninety five cents. So
- 30:06Speaker 29: just a matter of time back before silver's above fifty
- 30:09Speaker 29: dollars an ounce and we're back in price discovery mode.
- 30:13Speaker 4: It is a crazy time, but this is why I
- 30:15Speaker 4: suggest you speak to somebody you can speak to. And
- 30:19Speaker 4: and I say this not with derision. I understand why
- 30:21Speaker 4: call centers exist, et cetera. But if you need an answer,
- 30:26Speaker 4: call the Jefferson Coin Shop jcsgold dot com because it
- 30:31Speaker 4: is where you will actually talk to a person directly.
- 30:34Speaker 4: They're and a member of the Luck family or their
- 30:36Speaker 4: hand picked staff. They're at jcsgold dot com. Do you
- 30:41Speaker 4: think it's been a busy weekend of folks trying to
- 30:43Speaker 4: get in before the prices start going up again.
- 30:47Speaker 29: Yeah, And it really has been a busy few weeks now,
- 30:50Speaker 29: you know. Ever since Golden Silver started to have their
- 30:53Speaker 29: little consolidation and pull back, a lot of our clients
- 30:56Speaker 29: really saw that as as a great buying opportunity to
- 30:59Speaker 29: buy the dip by the discount. Uh, you know, go
- 31:02Speaker 29: ahead and stack gold and silver, take advantage of these
- 31:05Speaker 29: these little you know, price movements and uh and keep
- 31:09Speaker 29: adding to to their their pile and and uh, you know,
- 31:13Speaker 29: so then you're ready and you're prepared for for if
- 31:15Speaker 29: it spikes up, you know, in the middle of the
- 31:18Speaker 29: night Saturday night, early Sunday morning. You know, you're already
- 31:22Speaker 29: positioned and you're not trying to chase price anymore. If
- 31:24Speaker 29: you just buy it, you know, once a week, once
- 31:26Speaker 29: every two weeks, so you can skip your uh you
- 31:29Speaker 29: know a lot of amounts, and then you're prepared for runs.
- 31:31Speaker 4: Like this, which is great. Well, I appreciate it, James.
- 31:34Speaker 4: It's j csgold dot com, JCS goold dot com four
- 31:39Speaker 4: three four nine seven nine coin after ten Eastern Standard
- 31:43Speaker 4: time and you have a great morning, great show you too.
- 31:47Speaker 4: Four three four eight eight two four two one seven
- 31:51Speaker 4: is how you and I get together and throw down
- 31:56Speaker 4: on this. Bernie Sanders on X and you know, I
- 32:01Speaker 4: know you. I'm sure you follow Bernie on X. The
- 32:06Speaker 4: artist formerly known as Twitter took there to and if
- 32:12Speaker 4: you're looking for him, it's at Bernie Sanders because who
- 32:15Speaker 4: else would have that name? I thought that when I
- 32:19Speaker 4: set up my Gmail account, I'm like, I'll say JT
- 32:22Speaker 4: in the morning radio, and who will have that? Silly me?
- 32:28Speaker 4: There were forty two other people with that already there.
- 32:32Speaker 4: So in and amongst pictures of him and Zefod mad
- 32:35Speaker 4: Money and things like that is his screed about medicare
- 32:44Speaker 4: for all. And this is why I was wanting you
- 32:47Speaker 4: see all this is leading us to a place where
- 32:52Speaker 4: it seems so logical to say, you know what, all
- 32:56Speaker 4: this is broken. You know, can't really do anything without it.
- 33:04Speaker 4: So let's just vote to make it permanent. Make it
- 33:07Speaker 4: government paid for health care, mandate medical treatments, because that
- 33:12Speaker 4: won't go wrong. And that's where we're getting is where
- 33:19Speaker 4: and we see it in the twenty twenty five election
- 33:22Speaker 4: results where people have decided that the narrative they're told
- 33:32Speaker 4: that Donald Trump is taking away health care from people
- 33:36Speaker 4: and food, taking food away from young children. Vote against
- 33:44Speaker 4: anyone in Donald Trump's party vote to help us redistrict
- 33:49Speaker 4: Oh and I was having a conversation about some of
- 33:51Speaker 4: these redistricting manias and why you need to be careful
- 33:56Speaker 4: about them sometimes as you go forward, because it's all
- 33:59Speaker 4: fun and games until somebody puts an eye out. It's
- 34:02Speaker 4: like fireworks. And I'll get to what I said about
- 34:06Speaker 4: Virginia's districts specifically, because everyone's up in arms that it's
- 34:10Speaker 4: going to be ten Democrats to one Republican based on
- 34:15Speaker 4: previous election results. Now I say this living in Virginia
- 34:20Speaker 4: and knowing as Mark Twain once said, it was it.
- 34:25Speaker 4: Mark Twain said, I'm a member of no Organized political party.
- 34:29Speaker 4: I'm a Virginia Republican. It was somebody along those lines
- 34:33Speaker 4: said that. And there is nothing that I've seen of
- 34:39Speaker 4: the Virginia Republicans that gives me any hope that they're
- 34:43Speaker 4: working along this way. But as the Democrats do their
- 34:49Speaker 4: Bob Ross style redistricting where they take the really dark
- 34:54Speaker 4: Prussian blue areas of Virginia and try to pull all
- 34:57Speaker 4: that brute blue down into the red areas before it
- 35:01Speaker 4: starts turning purple and it gets too thin, they're they're
- 35:06Speaker 4: making eleven districts that are fifty one forty nine. Their
- 35:13Speaker 4: peril is they're taking some really safe Democrat districts of
- 35:17Speaker 4: which there seems to be a majority of the eleven
- 35:21Speaker 4: at least six to five, and they're putting everything should
- 35:26Speaker 4: the Republican Party ever muster enough in testical fortitude to
- 35:30Speaker 4: throw down on it, where the Republicans could actually wind
- 35:34Speaker 4: up flipping the tables over them like that Carpenter from
- 35:37Speaker 4: Galilee did, and ouse the money changers in a majority
- 35:43Speaker 4: of these congressional seats. If the and you're not hearing
- 35:47Speaker 4: anyone else say that, but I was looking at it saying,
- 35:49Speaker 4: you know, all these districts they're a lot closer because
- 35:54Speaker 4: they had to. That's the only way they could extrapolate
- 35:56Speaker 4: a state that generally is fifty two forty eight Democrat
- 36:02Speaker 4: when a statewide vote is held to get ten out
- 36:05Speaker 4: of eleven seats to be Democrat. Most of them are
- 36:08Speaker 4: perilously close to fifty to fifty just from the cheap
- 36:13Speaker 4: seats here where I'm going to go sit in the
- 36:15Speaker 4: front row. That's what I see of this Virginia redistricting
- 36:19Speaker 4: as I ruminate on it, and Texas is different. Who
- 36:23Speaker 4: knows what California will do. They only have to redistrict
- 36:26Speaker 4: three Republicans out in their district, so they're not going
- 36:30Speaker 4: to be stretching as far. But be careful of some
- 36:32Speaker 4: of this. It's all fun and games until the firecracker
- 36:35Speaker 4: goes off in your hand. Good morning, you're on the
- 36:37Speaker 4: air with Joe Thomas. First thing this morning. Who's this hey, Joe,
- 36:42Speaker 4: It's Clark. Happy birthday, mister marine. How are you doing, sir?
- 36:45Speaker 4: Joel noted you earlier as well as a marine and
- 36:49Speaker 4: two hundred and fifty years of oohrah.
- 36:52Speaker 30: So thank you to both you and Joel for the
- 36:55Speaker 30: birthday wishes. You know, Joel and Joe. The Marine Corps
- 37:01Speaker 30: Birthday didn't just kick off toys for Tots. The Marine
- 37:04Speaker 30: Corps birthday is the beginning of the holiday season. Okay,
- 37:11Speaker 30: Marine Corps Birthday, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, it just starts
- 37:18Speaker 30: at all. So you mentioned briefly the head of the
- 37:24Speaker 30: BBC had to step down because they doctor tapes.
- 37:29Speaker 4: On January sixth. Thing right, Well, yeah, they were doing
- 37:32Speaker 4: a documentary catching folks up. They did a documentary I
- 37:35Speaker 4: guess on January sixth, and who knows why they were
- 37:41Speaker 4: doing it now, but it's the BBC. I guess. There
- 37:44Speaker 4: are no doctor who reruns for them to run ever
- 37:47Speaker 4: since the Disney deal went south. But they had done it,
- 37:51Speaker 4: and they edited it to leave the part out where
- 37:53Speaker 4: Donald Trump said, and now many of you will go
- 37:57Speaker 4: peacefully to the Capitol to make your voices heard or
- 38:00Speaker 4: words to.
- 38:01Speaker 20: That life can change so abruptly.
- 38:04Speaker 5: Just ask Paul.
- 38:05Speaker 20: He's a hard working entrepreneur, he's young, he's got a
- 38:08Speaker 20: young family. Suddenly, though, he develops a rare medical condition
- 38:11Speaker 20: where he lost the use of both of his arms.
- 38:14Speaker 14: I could no longer drive a car, couldn't use a
- 38:16Speaker 14: computer type, couldn't use a mouse, I could not hold
- 38:18Speaker 14: my son, who was about a month old.
- 38:20Speaker 20: Paul and his family were facing a mountain of medical bills,
- 38:23Speaker 20: but they're so thankful that they're members of meta Share.
- 38:27Speaker 14: I think if someone asked me, like, hey, does men
- 38:29Speaker 14: share really work? I'm living proof that it works. My
- 38:33Speaker 14: four children are living proof that it works. My arms,
- 38:36Speaker 14: which have been healed, are living proof that menashare works.
- 38:39Speaker 14: Just knowing the emotional peace of mind, knowing that our
- 38:42Speaker 14: needs are going to be taken care of when we
- 38:44Speaker 14: have some type of medical problem, that is such a
- 38:46Speaker 14: huge blessing to us.
- 38:47Speaker 20: It could be a huge blessing to you to people
- 38:50Speaker 20: save so much and love being part of meta share.

- 39:04Speaker 10: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 39:08Speaker 10: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
- 39:13Speaker 10: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 39:19Speaker 10: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 39:23Speaker 10: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 39:27Speaker 10: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 39:32Speaker 10: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 39:37Speaker 10: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 39:43Speaker 10: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 39:46Speaker 10: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
- 39:51Speaker 10: healthy cells even from radiation. Total Wellness dot com where

- 41:01Speaker 32: Growing up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated
- 41:04Speaker 32: with animals. I'm not only in all of their beauty
- 41:06Speaker 32: and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic. Just look
- 41:09Speaker 32: at the birds who gather supplies to build nests, or
- 41:12Speaker 32: Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,
- 41:15Speaker 32: or penguins who travel up to five hundred miles to
- 41:17Speaker 32: secure food for their families, or bush babies whose impressive
- 41:21Speaker 32: jump allows them to navigate the trees and the wild

- 41:32Speaker 32: they also perform life saving work every day.
- 41:35Speaker 18: Dogs keep us safe at airports.
- 41:36Speaker 33: They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTS.

- 44:12Speaker 2: Amaze your friends here in the First Thing Today by
- 44:15Speaker 2: Joe Thomas, what it.
- 44:16Speaker 22: Does first of all is it raises healthcare premiums for
- 44:21Speaker 22: over twenty million Americans by doubling.
- 44:46Speaker 4: I gotta call out the steamed oligarch from Vermont for
- 44:52Speaker 4: a moment, because again they like to play with their
- 44:56Speaker 4: words like their worries stones. And the same thing was true,
- 45:00Speaker 4: would the one big Beautiful Bill Act or whatever they
- 45:03Speaker 4: wound up calling it, because they didn't cut taxes. Nobody
- 45:08Speaker 4: cut anyone's taxes. They didn't allow your taxes to go
- 45:14Speaker 4: up because a tax cut expired, Young Bernard, the Sage
- 45:23Speaker 4: of Vermont, the Sage of Burlington is again playing the
- 45:27Speaker 4: same game with you.
- 45:28Speaker 22: Because, first of all, is it raises healthcare premiums for
- 45:33Speaker 22: over twenty million Americans by doubling.
- 45:38Speaker 4: No, it allows subsidies that make you think like your
- 45:43Speaker 4: premiums aren't as high as they are to expire, and
- 45:48Speaker 4: why did you need those? And here's the key to
- 45:51Speaker 4: this is why did you need the subsidies? Could it
- 45:53Speaker 4: be that premiums had grown so high because insurance companies
- 46:02Speaker 4: realized that it sounded like fun when the government said
- 46:06Speaker 4: we're going to force every American to buy your stuff,
- 46:10Speaker 4: or we're going to tax them if they don't, And
- 46:13Speaker 4: the insurance company said, well, it sounds good to me, Bob,
- 46:16Speaker 4: until they and it really it was COVID that broke it. Now,
- 46:21Speaker 4: if I was jaded, I might think that the Chai
- 46:28Speaker 4: cooms schooling up after sending many of their military officers
- 46:34Speaker 4: to university here in the United States might have a
- 46:38Speaker 4: pretty good intel grasp, perhaps a dossier or two on
- 46:45Speaker 4: problems with the Affordable Care Act, like these insurance companies
- 46:49Speaker 4: would all be forced to pay high premiums if, let's say,
- 46:54Speaker 4: a grievous respiratory illness that we might have been working
- 46:57Speaker 4: on in one of our laboratoryries were to be released
- 47:01Speaker 4: through a cruise ship in the Pacific Northwest. Go back
- 47:07Speaker 4: to COVID and you'll see where I mean. Patient zero
- 47:12Speaker 4: is actually in northern Italy, amongst the Italian shirt makers
- 47:17Speaker 4: that employ all the Chinese people that come down along
- 47:20Speaker 4: the Belton Road to make Chinese shirts with made in
- 47:26Speaker 4: Italy tags on. So really northern Italy was sort of
- 47:30Speaker 4: ground zero of COVID. But in the United States, the
- 47:35Speaker 4: mass outbreak started when a cruise ship docked in Seattle
- 47:40Speaker 4: and the sick people started coming off thinking well, I've
- 47:44Speaker 4: got a chest cold, and all of a sudden, more
- 47:47Speaker 4: and more people got the same chest cold. And then
- 47:50Speaker 4: and just a quick note in its full song, Star's
- 47:57Speaker 4: cove two stops your pulmonary system from being able to
- 48:02Speaker 4: transfer the oxygen in your lungs into your blood system.
- 48:10Speaker 4: And if you're going to create a bioweapon, creating one
- 48:14Speaker 4: that suffocates people is pretty insidious. Somewhere Blofeld is sitting
- 48:24Speaker 4: there under a big octopus symbol saying, interesting, that's the bond. Interesting,
- 48:34Speaker 4: or at the world economic form you choose? But you know,
- 48:40Speaker 4: just you know, it's not like the chi cooms were
- 48:43Speaker 4: collecting intel on American life with all their officers here
- 48:48Speaker 4: taking classes at all of our American universities. No never,
- 48:52Speaker 4: no please. They just wanted to study American girls, them
- 49:00Speaker 4: in all the anime, and they wanted to see what
- 49:03Speaker 4: they really looked like. I'm sure that's all they were
- 49:06Speaker 4: doing here. So when COVID comes out, it breaks the
- 49:12Speaker 4: Affordable Care Act because all of a sudden, all the
- 49:14Speaker 4: insurance companies said, whoa, we're paying out a whole lot
- 49:18Speaker 4: of money we can't afford or our shareholders don't want
- 49:21Speaker 4: us to afford. And they hand Bernie this great, big
- 49:27Speaker 4: Christmas gift of socialized medicine that he could unpack and
- 49:32Speaker 4: unwrap for hisself. Because here's the breaking point of the
- 49:41Speaker 4: Affordable Care Act, under the weight of a massive number
- 49:45Speaker 4: of Americans all of a sudden, making claims on their
- 49:48Speaker 4: insurance policies that the government told them they had to
- 49:51Speaker 4: buy or they were going to go on a list
- 49:54Speaker 4: because we stopped finding them for it. But you still
- 49:57Speaker 4: had to tell the irs whether you had of Affordable
- 50:00Speaker 4: Care Act insurance or not. So we started subsidizing rather
- 50:09Speaker 4: than saying, lives are off, get a helmet. The government said, crap,
- 50:14Speaker 4: we've already said you had to buy this health insurance,
- 50:19Speaker 4: and now the health insurance companies are all going to
- 50:22Speaker 4: go bankrupt. Too big to fail. And I'm sure somebody
- 50:25Speaker 4: said too big to fail somewhere in the cloakroom of
- 50:28Speaker 4: the US Senate and they were shouted down saying, no,
- 50:32Speaker 4: we can't use that line again. How many times do
- 50:36Speaker 4: you think we can say too big to fail before
- 50:40Speaker 4: somebody calls us on it. So what Bernie means is
- 50:48Speaker 4: that the subsidies that were passed during COVID nineteen to
- 50:54Speaker 4: protect these folks who were forced into insurance policies that
- 50:59Speaker 4: they probably would not have been offered in this global
- 51:05Speaker 4: assigned medical risk scheme called the Affordable Care Act, we're
- 51:14Speaker 4: now we're facing this spike in their costs because the
- 51:21Speaker 4: subsidy is going away, and you will be left to
- 51:24Speaker 4: see the stinking carcasses, just like when low tide finally
- 51:30Speaker 4: rolls out. When the tide rolls out, you see all
- 51:32Speaker 4: the stinking carcasses of the dead fish and perhaps a
- 51:37Speaker 4: couple of mobsters laid bare on the ocean floor when
- 51:42Speaker 4: tide goes out. That's what's happening. And that's what they're
- 51:45Speaker 4: afraid is going to happen with Affordable Care Act. And
- 51:51Speaker 4: they don't want it to happen because again, who will
- 51:55Speaker 4: be blamed the Republicans. So the fear amongst many of
- 52:00Speaker 4: you is now in this deal, Republicans are going to
- 52:10Speaker 4: cave lest they see what happened, and they'll be told,
- 52:14Speaker 4: you see what we did to win some earl sears.
- 52:17Speaker 4: You see what we did in the Virginia House of Delegates.
- 52:21Speaker 4: That's all coming for you, slappy, and they'll capitulate. There's like,
- 52:29Speaker 4: you know, what, have your subsidies? You know what? We're
- 52:33Speaker 4: three quarters of the way gone. Anyway, it's funny money
- 52:36Speaker 4: that doesn't do anything as it is, and we'll just
- 52:43Speaker 4: be that much closer to what Bernie's wanted all along,
- 52:46Speaker 4: which is medicare for all single payers, socialized medicine.
- 52:51Speaker 28: A few years ago, my youngest son had something minor
- 52:55Speaker 28: turned into something very major in a matter of hours.
- 52:57Speaker 4: It was Medicinare that came through for us.
- 53:00Speaker 18: There was no hassles, there was no problem.
- 53:02Speaker 28: That's what's so wonderful about knowing that you're a part
- 53:05Speaker 28: of such an incredible ministry.
- 53:07Speaker 15: Meta Share is a biblical approach to healthcare where Christians
- 53:11Speaker 15: share each other's medical expenses.
- 53:13Speaker 6: Medishare is a family, a group of people that stick
- 53:18Speaker 6: with you through the hardest times of your life.
- 53:20Speaker 15: Metashare isn't insurance. It's a nonprofit ministry over thirty years old,
- 53:25Speaker 15: and members have shared over eight billion dollars of each
- 53:27Speaker 15: other's medical bills.
- 53:28Speaker 9: We don't have to spend so much on health insurance.
- 53:31Speaker 18: You can focus on on supporting other people.
- 53:33Speaker 17: Medashare is affordable.
- 53:35Speaker 18: Medishare is Biblical.
- 53:36Speaker 24: Medas Share is family.
- 53:37Speaker 15: Join thousands of Christians who can help you save on
