- 0:09Speaker 1: I don't think Congress is going to be in a
- 0:11Speaker 1: mood to write a blank check.
- 0:12Speaker 2: First thing today on the Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas,
- 0:17Speaker 2: the second most famous Thomas and Charlotte's Ville.
- 0:20Speaker 3: Jeword said, steal me Stem. You have a day at
- 0:25Speaker 3: least for work, when the sun comes up, drops a
- 0:27Speaker 3: kid into school the way joys everything a gender, all

- 0:45Speaker 4: this morning.
- 0:46Speaker 5: I want to be Joe.
- 0:50Speaker 4: Here it comes.
- 0:50Speaker 6: I warn.
- 0:51Speaker 7: Oh always I worry because all experience has shown as
- 0:58Speaker 7: the other Thomas from R Liswell once wrote that when
- 1:02Speaker 7: you take a celebration, a commemoration, and you turn it
- 1:07Speaker 7: into a three day weekend, you tend to lose the point.
- 1:14Speaker 7: Outside of the very ardent supporters who work very hard
- 1:18Speaker 7: through programs like this one to make sure you remember
- 1:22Speaker 7: why we have holidays and what we're commemorating or celebrating.
- 1:27Speaker 7: And thus I present to you Easter Monday, which has
- 1:31Speaker 7: apparently become a holiday.
- 1:32Speaker 4: And I checked, and I was going through and.
- 1:35Speaker 7: I'm sure there were things going on in the Holy
- 1:38Speaker 7: land the day after the resurrection.
- 1:42Speaker 4: I mean, I'm sure sure stuff was happening. It's not like.
- 1:46Speaker 7: People always said, oh god, the cave's empty, oh my goodness,
- 1:50Speaker 7: or oh my god.
- 1:52Speaker 4: And then went back.
- 1:54Speaker 7: To work and said, Wow, that was pretty cool, wasn't it.
- 1:56Speaker 7: What'd you do this weekend, Bob?
- 2:00Speaker 4: So I get it, But you could say that about
- 2:03Speaker 4: every day.
- 2:06Speaker 7: So here we are on what many people are going
- 2:09Speaker 7: to have as a four day weekend. In some places, though,
- 2:14Speaker 7: it has become an excuse to not allow people to
- 2:18Speaker 7: take Good Friday as a holiday. So some places you've
- 2:22Speaker 7: got a four day weekend going on. Some places it's
- 2:25Speaker 7: a three day weekend because you had to go to
- 2:27Speaker 7: work on Good Friday, and there are grousings and grumblings
- 2:34Speaker 7: about that as well. Mostly it's indicative of a world
- 2:39Speaker 7: that doesn't like going to work, probably because the people
- 2:43Speaker 7: who ask us to enterprise for them don't do a
- 2:46Speaker 7: great job of explaining or a great enough job explaining
- 2:50Speaker 7: why these things are important. But that's just a subtext
- 2:55Speaker 7: to this morning. So much going on in the amazing
- 2:57Speaker 7: rescue of our pilots. Much more coming up, So let
- 3:01Speaker 7: us dive first thing on the program that tells you
- 3:05Speaker 7: what went on last night, tells you what we think
- 3:07Speaker 7: about what went on last night, and that is of
- 3:10Speaker 7: course the royal we But most importantly, we want to
- 3:13Speaker 7: find out how it's impacting you where you are, and
- 3:16Speaker 7: you can do that. At four three, four eight eight,
- 3:19Speaker 7: two four to two one seven this morning, rescue crews
- 3:26Speaker 7: went into Iran, using some deception and some misinformation to
- 3:30Speaker 7: throw those folks in the Iranian government off to pull
- 3:36Speaker 7: rescue in the mountains seven thousand foot altitude. President Trump
- 3:41Speaker 7: tweeting over the weekend, this is the first time in
- 3:44Speaker 7: military history that two US pilots have been rescued separately
- 3:48Speaker 7: deep in enemy territory. He wrote on truth social quote,
- 3:52Speaker 7: we will never leave an American war fighter behind. Israel
- 3:57Speaker 7: has claimed over the weekend the killing of intelligence chief
- 4:01Speaker 7: of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. Defense Minister Israel Katz made
- 4:06Speaker 7: the announcement that the Revolutionary Guard are shooting civilians and
- 4:11Speaker 7: we're eliminating the leaders of the terrorists. Using US ground
- 4:17Speaker 7: troops against Iran was a question asked of President Trump
- 4:21Speaker 7: in a sit down with The Hill Magazine. They asked
- 4:25Speaker 7: him if he would continue to promise that there wouldn't
- 4:28Speaker 7: be troops on the ground. He said, no normal people
- 4:32Speaker 7: would make a deal. He went on, smart people would
- 4:35Speaker 7: make a deal. If they were smart, they would make
- 4:38Speaker 7: a deal. A six hundred and fifty six million dollar
- 4:44Speaker 7: judgment against Palestinian authorities have been re instated by appeals
- 4:49Speaker 7: judges following Supreme Court ruling in favor of Americans killed
- 4:53Speaker 7: or wounded in attacks in Israel. The decision came from
- 4:57Speaker 7: the second US Circuit Court of a decade after it
- 5:02Speaker 7: was first tossed out in a verdict against the PLO.
- 5:06Speaker 7: Asian markets were open for trading mostly rose early this
- 5:10Speaker 7: morning as investors continued to watch closely the war in Iran,
- 5:15Speaker 7: and most specifically the Strait of Hormuz. An airstrike hit
- 5:20Speaker 7: an information in communication technology building at Tehran's Sharif University
- 5:25Speaker 7: of Technology. According to Mohammad Vassal, who spoke with the
- 5:30Speaker 7: Associated Press who had traveled to Iran to report there,
- 5:35Speaker 7: President Trump said on Sunday reports of impending cabinet ousters
- 5:40Speaker 7: of other people now on the tales of pam Bandi
- 5:44Speaker 7: and Christy nomesouts are not on the table, saying that
- 5:48Speaker 7: he fully supports those who are in his cabinet right now,
- 5:52Speaker 7: and those are some of our first things on this

- 7:12Speaker 6: You get both.
- 7:13Speaker 5: Many families save five hundred bucks a month with meta
- 7:17Speaker 5: share and that's huge. But it's also true that people
- 7:19Speaker 5: wind up way more satisfied too, and we know this
- 7:22Speaker 5: from research of members. There's a lot they like about
- 7:25Speaker 5: meta share, but especially they love being part of something

- 8:03Speaker 8: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 8:07Speaker 8: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
- 8:13Speaker 8: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 8:18Speaker 8: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 8:22Speaker 8: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 8:26Speaker 8: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 8:31Speaker 8: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 8:36Speaker 8: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 8:42Speaker 8: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 8:46Speaker 8: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
- 8:51Speaker 8: healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com where

- 10:02Speaker 10: I've been fascinated with animals. I'm not only in alle
- 10:05Speaker 10: of their beauty and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic.
- 10:08Speaker 10: Just look at the birds who gather supplies to build nests,
- 10:11Speaker 10: or Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,

- 13:12Speaker 2: The first thing today on the Talk Media Network by
- 13:15Speaker 2: Joe Thomas.
- 13:22Speaker 7: I mean new stuff happens. No, I never said that,
- 13:57Speaker 7: so our steam.
- 14:00Speaker 4: I mean esteemed.
- 14:01Speaker 7: Colleagues that engage in congress when they're not in recess.
- 14:06Speaker 7: I mean it's a nice gig when you can get it.
- 14:09Speaker 7: Are flogging the character issue.
- 14:14Speaker 4: Again.
- 14:14Speaker 7: They're out there because when they're on break, they're out
- 14:17Speaker 7: there and they're constituums beating the drum for whatever the
- 14:23Speaker 7: talking points are from Democratic parties central And if you
- 14:27Speaker 7: go around the country, you'll find senators, especially being queried
- 14:31Speaker 7: about the war and about President Trump's request for a
- 14:36Speaker 7: one point five trillion dollar defense budget. And they're all
- 14:40Speaker 7: taking the opportunity to sing from the same choir book.
- 14:43Speaker 7: You go across the country, Colorado, California, Oh, Adam shiff
- 14:48Speaker 7: He's a special kind of special, isn't he?
- 14:51Speaker 4: The gift that keeps.
- 14:52Speaker 7: On I'm not sure what it keeps on doing, but
- 14:54Speaker 7: it keeps on doing it. All across the country, Democrats,
- 15:00Speaker 7: members of Congress are talking character. It's curious. I mean,
- 15:04Speaker 7: it's just NBC, CBS, ABC, character. And these are the
- 15:11Speaker 7: folks who keep how much money on the side to
- 15:15Speaker 7: pay NDAs on staffers that have sued for sexual harassment?
- 15:22Speaker 4: How much is that aside?
- 15:25Speaker 7: Just guys, just quick, you know, since Kristin Welker won't ask,
- 15:29Speaker 7: Folks like Tim Kaine.
- 15:31Speaker 1: Chris and I have a hard time seeing that size
- 15:33Speaker 1: of an increase as being justified. The President sent that
- 15:37Speaker 1: Nober over Friday. As you know, I'm on the Armed
- 15:39Speaker 1: Services Commute. We'll be taking a look at it. But
- 15:41Speaker 1: here's a question we have to ask, which is it's
- 15:44Speaker 1: not just about the dollars. It's about the Pentagon managing
- 15:48Speaker 1: the money. You just watch the Secretary of Defense fire
- 15:52Speaker 1: very respected army leadership in the middle of a war,
- 15:56Speaker 1: respected leadership on both sides of the island, in both houses.
- 16:00Speaker 7: And this is just because Tim Kaine said it is.
- 16:03Speaker 7: Go back and try to find stories about Tim Kaine
- 16:07Speaker 7: just walking out under the floor of the Senate saying, hey,
- 16:10Speaker 7: you know, the chief of the Army is.
- 16:11Speaker 4: A really great guy.
- 16:13Speaker 7: No, if Pete Hegsith hadn't removed him from duty, Tim
- 16:19Speaker 7: Kaine's not talking about this guy.
- 16:20Speaker 1: And there's deep questions about why many suspect that Secretary
- 16:24Speaker 1: Hegseth was just trying to move people out of the
- 16:26Speaker 1: way that he viewed as as personally threatening to his leadership.
- 16:31Speaker 1: Maybe they were being candid to him with advice that
- 16:33Speaker 1: he didn't like. And so I don't think Congress is
- 16:36Speaker 1: going to be in a mood to write a blank
- 16:38Speaker 1: check to a leadership team, a civilian leadership team that
- 16:42Speaker 1: seems so inept these days.
- 16:45Speaker 7: Now, let's keep in mind, it's not like he fired
- 16:49Speaker 7: the Secretary of the Army. He fired Army Chief of
- 16:57Speaker 7: Staff Randy George. At the end of last week, Pentagon
- 17:07Speaker 7: confirmed George, who had more than a year left in
- 17:10Speaker 7: his term, will be retiring from his position in the
- 17:13Speaker 7: forty first as the forty first Chief of Staff of
- 17:16Speaker 7: the Army, effective immediately. Officials speaking on the condition of
- 17:21Speaker 7: anonymity using the Vindmann hotline said Hegsith also fired General
- 17:28Speaker 7: James General David Hoadeney, who leads the Army's Transformation and
- 17:34Speaker 7: Training Command, and Major General William Green, head of the
- 17:38Speaker 7: Army's Chaplain Corps. Now do you think Tim Kaine knew
- 17:44Speaker 7: who any of these people were before Thursday?
- 17:48Speaker 4: What did you say? I sort of on the Armed
- 17:51Speaker 4: Services Committee, Christen.
- 17:55Speaker 1: Right expected leadership on both sides of the aisle in
- 17:58Speaker 1: both houses, And there's deep questions about why. Many suspect
- 18:02Speaker 1: that Secretary heg Seth was just trying to move people
- 18:05Speaker 1: out of the way that he viewed as as personally threatening.
- 18:09Speaker 7: So he was personally threatened by the head of the
- 18:12Speaker 7: chaplain Corps. He was personally threatened by the Transformation and
- 18:19Speaker 7: training commanding officer or.
- 18:23Speaker 4: The chief of staff. What was he going to.
- 18:29Speaker 7: Commit a coup take over the see this is but
- 18:34Speaker 7: it gives them and we have to be careful because
- 18:37Speaker 7: this is the same horse they were riding during Hegsith's
- 18:41Speaker 7: nomination to head the War Department. He's a drunk, he's
- 18:49Speaker 7: a party boy, he's a frat boy. He never commander.
- 18:53Speaker 7: He's not the fit. He doesn't have the requisite. I
- 18:57Speaker 7: don't know whatever it is they decide creates the requisite gravitas.
- 19:04Speaker 7: I think it's having been at enough Washington, DC cocktail parties,
- 19:12Speaker 7: brown nosing enough US senators, who, by the way, have
- 19:16Speaker 7: an esteemed military record of their own, don't you, Senator Kane,
- 19:20Speaker 7: don't you, Senator Shift. But this is the drum beat now.
- 19:26Speaker 7: And why do they do it? Because it works Because
- 19:30Speaker 7: if you're talking about percentages one to two percent of
- 19:36Speaker 7: an electorate that needs to support Congress people, and this
- 19:42Speaker 7: is this is just so you understand, this is, you know,
- 19:46Speaker 7: a safe and effective vaccine against what you're being hit with.
- 19:50Speaker 7: What you're seeing is an attempt to take folks who
- 19:55Speaker 7: voted for Donald Trump in twenty twenty four to not
- 19:58Speaker 7: vote for Reportublicans in Congress in twenty twenty six. That's
- 20:06Speaker 7: all it is. It's about don't vote for the president.
- 20:10Speaker 7: And can I say something controversial here, This is a
- 20:15Speaker 7: big mistake for the Democrats. Out of concern for them,
- 20:20Speaker 7: I don't want them because if they take the majority,
- 20:24Speaker 7: it might be the worst thing that ever happens to
- 20:26Speaker 7: Hikeem Jefferies and Chuck Schumer.
- 20:28Speaker 4: Is if they take majorities.
- 20:31Speaker 7: In both the House and Senate, as some punditry seem
- 20:35Speaker 7: to think they will, what has happened to them every
- 20:39Speaker 7: single time they go after Donald Trump. So for two years,
- 20:47Speaker 7: you'll have unending attacks on Donald Trump. You'll have unending
- 20:50Speaker 7: impeachment inquiries, You'll have unending investigations, and what usually happens
- 20:57Speaker 7: to Donald Trump when.
- 20:59Speaker 4: That goes on, just as a point of order.
- 21:06Speaker 7: As the dust settles, you realize they were wrong and
- 21:10Speaker 7: that the President was wrongly accused and or assailed of
- 21:15Speaker 7: these transgressions, whatever they come up with. And yeah, it's
- 21:20Speaker 7: going to be uncomfortable and bumpy, and it's going to
- 21:23Speaker 7: be awkward, and a lot of your friends are going
- 21:25Speaker 7: to say you vote guy, it's chaos, but this is
- 21:30Speaker 7: what you have to be ready for, because this is
- 21:33Speaker 7: how entrenched the UNI Party and the authoritarian centralized government
- 21:41Speaker 7: had become. That finally you get somebody who's pushing back
- 21:44Speaker 7: against it, and everything is a character issue. Character of course,
- 21:48Speaker 7: meaning somebody who we didn't choose to serve in this
- 21:52Speaker 7: role because he hasn't hung out of enough cocktail parties
- 21:55Speaker 7: with us or hosted us for a cookout. And as
- 21:59Speaker 7: George down.
- 22:00Speaker 17: Brownstone business owners, are you paying high phone bills for

- 24:07Speaker 8: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market hi im,
- 24:12Speaker 8: Doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized
- 24:18Speaker 8: curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program.
- 24:23Speaker 8: It makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation
- 24:27Speaker 8: is a key component to our overall health. The Mayo
- 24:31Speaker 8: Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has
- 24:36Speaker 8: antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent cancer
- 24:43Speaker 8: or at least slow the spread of cancer, and in
- 24:45Speaker 8: many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy

- 28:44Speaker 7: Hey, that's a good important message. But also the message

- 28:51Speaker 7: you hear things, and you can create an awful lot.
- 28:55Speaker 4: The more we hear, the better we are.
- 28:57Speaker 7: And I want to jump to an email and yeah, absolutely,
- 29:01Speaker 7: we want to talk about the rescue of the pilot
- 29:05Speaker 7: straight out of a Jim Cavizl movie. Well, he's my
- 29:09Speaker 7: action hero of choice these days. But a team, you know,
- 29:16Speaker 7: coming together, basically setting up a safe zone for helicopters
- 29:21Speaker 7: to work out of in enemy territory. The CIA misinformation
- 29:31Speaker 7: campaign convincing the Iranians that they had already rescued the guy,
- 29:36Speaker 7: and proof that they can do it if they can
- 29:41Speaker 7: teach the Iranians who obviously are running around because the
- 29:45Speaker 7: Israelis had just dropped a missile on the head of
- 29:48Speaker 7: their intelligence operations. But I imagine he wasn't the only
- 29:51Speaker 7: guy working on intel. But look at how depth our
- 30:00Speaker 7: intelligence services are at convincing people to believe things that aren't.
- 30:05Speaker 4: So just saying.
- 30:09Speaker 7: Came out good this time, Raymond wrote in on Saturday
- 30:17Speaker 7: after our discussion of Artemis two was not a singer
- 30:21Speaker 7: in a country Western band, but the spaceship hurtling towards
- 30:25Speaker 7: the moon, and we were discussing the original intent behind
- 30:30Speaker 7: the International Space Station and the idea of a platform
- 30:34Speaker 7: from which to launch ships into space more efficiently with
- 30:42Speaker 7: less fuel consumption, etc.
- 30:45Speaker 4: And use.
- 30:48Speaker 7: Much less energy to create the momentum necessary. By the way,
- 30:52Speaker 7: to Bob in Virginia, you're right, and to my defense,
- 30:56Speaker 7: I was offered a choice in junior year of high
- 30:59Speaker 7: schoo to pick an elective organic chemistry or physics. I
- 31:06Speaker 7: chose organic chemistry. Sounded like a much more fun class.
- 31:10Speaker 7: Uh so not nope, nope, nope, nope, never No, we
- 31:13Speaker 7: were never required to take a physics class. We went
- 31:16Speaker 7: in and we get We're given the choice. You could
- 31:20Speaker 7: take physics or organic chemistry. Don't don't even don't even begin.
- 31:26Speaker 7: But you can text four three four eight eight two
- 31:29Speaker 7: four two one seven is that even a class anymore
- 31:33Speaker 7: organic chemistry? And you know you have to get a
- 31:38Speaker 7: grant from Monsanto to in any event, we were discussing
- 31:44Speaker 7: the ease of creating the momentum necessary to you know,
- 31:48Speaker 7: travel through space at.
- 31:50Speaker 4: High speed.
- 31:53Speaker 7: Takes much less energy outside of the Earth's atmosphere. Ray
- 31:56Speaker 7: doesn't question that, but he does question some of the
- 32:00Speaker 7: efficacy of actually doing that. I cannot see Ray wrights
- 32:08Speaker 7: any overall advantages to building spacecraft on the Moon. First,
- 32:12Speaker 7: all of the components used to build the spacecraft will
- 32:15Speaker 7: have to be boosted up there from Earth, plus all
- 32:18Speaker 7: equipment needed to construct that would require more effort than
- 32:22Speaker 7: just having the spacecraft take off from Earth to start with. Second,
- 32:27Speaker 7: although working in low gravity would reduce the number and
- 32:31Speaker 7: size of some equipment, for example forklifts and construction cranes,
- 32:36Speaker 7: this would be more than offset by the need to
- 32:39Speaker 7: build huge assembly sheds, and unless the workers are going
- 32:43Speaker 7: to work in spacesuits, the assembly sheds would have to
- 32:46Speaker 7: be airtight and capable of maintaining pressure of at least
- 32:49Speaker 7: ten psi. And then, of course you have to go
- 32:52Speaker 7: back to having full size forklifts and cranes. Of course,
- 32:55Speaker 7: the workers might work in spacesuits, but that would be
- 32:58Speaker 7: like replacing the water pump in your jeep while wearing
- 33:01Speaker 7: insulated leather gloves and a motorcycle helmet with a face
- 33:06Speaker 7: mask down. How do you get people to work in
- 33:09Speaker 7: those conditions? Once the thrill of working on the moon
- 33:12Speaker 7: wears off, maybe in about a week, aggravation and boredom
- 33:16Speaker 7: will be the dominant emotions, and the couple that with
- 33:20Speaker 7: a few weeks of convalescence to readjust to Earth's gravity
- 33:24Speaker 7: at the end of a lunar tour. Best I remember
- 33:28Speaker 7: in the early days, one of the possible uses suggested
- 33:31Speaker 7: for the space station was spacecraft assembly, but somehow, upon reflection,
- 33:36Speaker 7: they apparently decided that was not practical. Well then, of course,
- 33:41Speaker 7: then what is the practicality of the International Space Station
- 33:45Speaker 7: outside of the fact that we can say, look, Arthur C. Clark,
- 33:48Speaker 7: we did it, and you know, so there, I mean,
- 33:54Speaker 7: there has to be a reason and this is why government.
- 33:58Speaker 7: Oh there he goes. I can hear your eyes rolling.
- 34:02Speaker 7: When government does this just because it's something government says
- 34:06Speaker 7: it needs to do, doesn't become an efficient use and
- 34:10Speaker 7: If you go back to Jack Kennedy, he never called
- 34:13Speaker 7: on the US government to be the one leading. He
- 34:18Speaker 7: said the United States must lead. He said that when
- 34:26Speaker 7: he gave the famous speech to Rice University, it wasn't
- 34:33Speaker 7: just the US government. We heard that just the US
- 34:36Speaker 7: government would do it. And this is why everyone loses
- 34:41Speaker 7: their bawel control over you know, whether it's Virgin or
- 34:47Speaker 7: SpaceX or all of these non commercial or these non
- 34:51Speaker 7: governmental operations going out of the space.
- 34:53Speaker 4: You can't allow that.
- 34:57Speaker 7: The majority of space is full of commercial operations, many
- 35:03Speaker 7: of them using their commercial operations as sidebars to governmental
- 35:09Speaker 7: operations on most of those satellites. That's why we didn't
- 35:13Speaker 7: really have a problem giving them lifts in the shuttle,
- 35:16Speaker 7: because we were going to be using on a governmental
- 35:19Speaker 7: level the same satellites. If you recall, once the investigation
- 35:29Speaker 7: into the explosion of the Challenger was complete, the determination
- 35:34Speaker 7: was that we were turning these things around too fast.
- 35:39Speaker 7: At least that was the accusation that we were turning
- 35:43Speaker 7: these shuttles around too quickly, and that the O ring
- 35:48Speaker 7: and the fuel tank had deteriorated but had not been
- 35:52Speaker 7: inspected because of the need to get the ship back
- 35:56Speaker 7: out there bringing more satellites into orbit because they had
- 36:01Speaker 7: started to take commercial.
- 36:04Speaker 4: Payload, because the leftists, oh, were carrying commercial stuff.
- 36:13Speaker 7: So then when private citizens say, hey, we'll launch the
- 36:16Speaker 7: stuff into space, they lose their poop over that as well.
- 36:23Speaker 4: And they all say the same thing. We're weaponizing space.
- 36:27Speaker 4: Are there weapons in space? Yes?
- 36:28Speaker 7: Did Jack Kennedy say we shouldn't weaponize space or shouldn't
- 36:33Speaker 7: allow space to be weaponized?
- 36:35Speaker 4: To be careful? Yes, but how do you do that
- 36:38Speaker 4: without weapons? Aye?
- 36:39Speaker 7: You see, there's what Jack Kennedy didn't say at Rice
- 36:43Speaker 7: University is the only way to keep weapons out of
- 36:48Speaker 7: space is to put weapons in space. Because these folks,
- 36:58Speaker 7: who feel like they will burst into flames if you
- 37:02Speaker 7: even say the word church around them, are insistent that science,
- 37:11Speaker 7: in some way, shape or form, is going to find
- 37:13Speaker 7: a way to make humans stop being corruptible and stop
- 37:18Speaker 7: trying to find ways to take dominion over one another.
- 37:23Speaker 7: And as the last great attempt at fighting that, we
- 37:28Speaker 7: do our damnedest. But yes, that means putting weapons in space.
- 37:32Speaker 4: And I get.
- 37:32Speaker 7: Everything you say, Ray, and all of them are reasonable thoughts.
- 37:38Speaker 7: I'd like to see commercial applications leaned on because just
- 37:44Speaker 7: like the explorers of the fourteen and fifteen hundreds, it
- 37:51Speaker 7: was done for commercial reasons, not just because the government said, Hey,
- 37:56Speaker 7: here's some extra money. How about we spend it instead
- 37:59Speaker 7: of burning it.
- 38:01Speaker 21: According to a new report from Discovery Education, ninety two
- 38:04Speaker 21: percent of students say that engaging lessons make school more fun,
- 38:08Speaker 21: and more than ninety percent of educators said engagement is
- 38:11Speaker 21: critical for student achievement. Student engagement is essential for learning,
- 38:15Speaker 21: but gaps remain about how to achieve, measure and sustain
- 38:18Speaker 21: student's interest in the classroom. Although sixty three percent of
- 38:22Speaker 21: students agreed that students are highly engaged in school, only
- 38:26Speaker 21: forty five percent of teachers and fifty one percent of
- 38:28Speaker 21: principles surveyed agreed with the same statement. Educators disagreed on
- 38:33Speaker 21: the top indicators of engagement. Seventy two percent of teachers
- 38:37Speaker 21: said asking thoughtful questions was the strongest indicator of student engagement,
- 38:41Speaker 21: while fifty four percent of superintendents rate performing well on
- 38:44Speaker 21: assessments as a top engagement indicator. Also, two thirds of
- 38:48Speaker 21: students said they believed that AI could help them learn faster,
- 38:52Speaker 21: yet fewer than half of teachers report using AI themselves

- 43:39Speaker 19: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
- 43:42Speaker 19: or a friend. Buzz driving is drunk driving. A message
- 43:45Speaker 19: brought to you by NITSA and AD Council.

- 44:14Speaker 2: Putting the radio on is the first thing today.
- 44:31Speaker 7: That's how we roll. We say the quiet part out loud.
- 44:34Speaker 4: Here.
- 44:34Speaker 7: First thing today by me Joe Thomas. And yes, I
- 44:38Speaker 7: am an authoritarian dictator because I dictate, but you can.
- 44:43Speaker 4: Question as this one.
- 44:47Speaker 7: Oh, great Joe, comes the email from Francis. You want
- 44:54Speaker 7: space colonized by the British East India Company. Good job.
- 44:59Speaker 7: I can just hear the Martians complaining about their subjugation.
- 45:06Speaker 7: Here we go, Francis. I'm not sure if your tongue
- 45:09Speaker 7: is firmly in chic in my point about commerce driving
- 45:14Speaker 7: exploration or not. But you know, the narrative on the
- 45:18Speaker 7: British East India Company and colonialism and displaced peoples and
- 45:26Speaker 7: all of the it's it's what gives Hamas the ability
- 45:34Speaker 7: to tell the press that they are a marginalized community,
- 45:39Speaker 7: equating themselves to the Aboriginal peoples of Australia and Native
- 45:44Speaker 7: American tribes of the United States. Did How did Zimbabwe
- 45:53Speaker 7: go after they ousted the British? Things went bad pretty quickly,
- 45:58Speaker 7: didn't they. As Robert Mugabi took over all the farms,
- 46:03Speaker 7: kicked out all the Caucasians from Britain, took over South Rhodesia,
- 46:09Speaker 7: renamed it Zimbabwe, and immediately burned through all their cash
- 46:13Speaker 7: because the Marxist that Mugabi was. Instead of giving all
- 46:17Speaker 7: the farms to the people, the people meant his friends.
- 46:22Speaker 7: But it's okay because we have guys like Tim Kaine
- 46:25Speaker 7: who'll go out there and say, we'll just do it
- 46:27Speaker 7: better for us. Our friends at jcsgold dot com understand
- 46:32Speaker 7: that you are inundated with messages about you must investor
- 46:37Speaker 7: in Golden but you don't know. Most of us don't,
- 46:40Speaker 7: and that's why it's a family business.
- 46:42Speaker 4: I suggest to speak to not a.
- 46:44Speaker 7: Call center with somebody working on a commission, call them
- 46:47Speaker 7: and talked to them. Gold is bounced a little bit.
- 46:50Speaker 7: It's still down at forty six ninety six. Seventy six
- 46:54Speaker 7: six is a while there. It's up nineteen dollars since
- 46:57Speaker 7: it closed on Thursday at seventy three nineteen. That's sixteen cents.
- 47:04Speaker 7: Did you can talk to them about that kind of investment?
- 47:07Speaker 7: Should you buy gold? Shouldn't you buy gold? Feel comfortable
- 47:11Speaker 7: in a family business that's there to serve you and
- 47:13Speaker 7: has been since nineteen sixty one.
- 47:17Speaker 4: I want to pivot.
- 47:18Speaker 7: We were talking about the narrative pitch, and this goes
- 47:23Speaker 7: back to something that I've maintained since the beginning of
- 47:26Speaker 7: the bombardment of Tehran.
- 47:29Speaker 4: In this action.
- 47:32Speaker 7: Again, Ke Virginia Senator, former vice presidential candidate, imagine how close,
- 47:39Speaker 7: never mind how close, Tim Waltscott, he didn't get nearly
- 47:42Speaker 7: as close as this guy got to being second in
- 47:46Speaker 7: command in the United States.
- 47:49Speaker 1: President promised to end foreign wars and bring down prices.
- 47:52Speaker 1: He's initiating wars, raising prices, and now claiming he's got
- 47:55Speaker 1: to cut Medicaid, Medicare and other programs to fund his wars.
- 48:00Speaker 7: So all right, Tim, and again not to question your
- 48:04Speaker 7: estimable talents and intellect.
- 48:08Speaker 4: Okay, that's not true.
- 48:11Speaker 7: Well, question you're in because you're reading from the talking
- 48:14Speaker 7: points menu is easy. Here's what the team needs you
- 48:21Speaker 7: to say.
- 48:21Speaker 4: Go do it.
- 48:22Speaker 7: And I've been on teams before, sports teams mostly, But
- 48:29Speaker 7: if you're on a team, you have a role to play,
- 48:31Speaker 7: and if that role is just repeating with some gravitas
- 48:35Speaker 7: the talking points, then you do it. Otherwise you get
- 48:38Speaker 7: kicked off the team. And that's the problem with our
- 48:41Speaker 7: modern Democrats and Republicans. You don't get honest answers from people.
- 48:48Speaker 7: You don't get intellectual thought, you get talking points. You
- 48:51Speaker 7: get what is my team need me to say? And
- 49:00Speaker 7: to be fair, the scenario of itself is ridiculous to
- 49:04Speaker 7: a point because neither do I want you know, cheerleaders
- 49:10Speaker 7: in the press. I also remind you that the press
- 49:14Speaker 7: coverage of the American Battle to Oustar occupying forces from
- 49:19Speaker 7: Britain probably would not have sounded really good in Washington.
- 49:25Speaker 7: You can take the name hegseth Out and insert the
- 49:29Speaker 7: name Washington. Think of how many battles in the American
- 49:35Speaker 7: War to Oustar British occupiers. How many battles did we lose?
- 49:42Speaker 7: Just just September eleventh, seventeen seventy seven. September eleventh, Yes,
- 49:49Speaker 7: September eleventh, the first bad September eleventh in American history.
- 49:55Speaker 7: September eleventh, seventeen seventy seventh, the Battle of the Brandywine.
- 50:00Speaker 4: We got our arses kicked.
- 50:04Speaker 7: This is what sent us to hide and lick our wounds,
- 50:15Speaker 7: try to heal, try to train, try to get better,
- 50:18Speaker 7: because we had literally been routed at the Battle of Brandywine.
- 50:27Speaker 7: What would the Sunday morning talk shows be talking, well,
- 50:32Speaker 7: if this off, they don't be talking with a British accent,
- 50:35Speaker 7: wouldn't they? But what would some eighteenth century version of
- 50:39Speaker 7: Christen Welker and some Tory loyalists be going, Oh right,
- 50:49Speaker 7: General washingtonise, he's got no plan. You see, he's just
- 50:54Speaker 7: jumped into this thing whole on because because John Adams
- 50:57Speaker 7: told him to.
- 51:00Speaker 4: Boy, Jefferson did it. Jefferson only did it because Adams believed.
- 51:04Speaker 7: Him into doing it. They have no character. They're listening
- 51:08Speaker 7: to Ben Franklin, have you. Ben Franklin is a He's
- 51:13Speaker 7: a womanizer and a thief. And if you think I'm
- 51:19Speaker 7: trying to characterize what's being said now in a dark light,
- 51:24Speaker 7: you're right, because it's been my contention that this is
- 51:30Speaker 7: not a new war. If you think combating Iran is
- 51:36Speaker 7: a new war, I'll get you some Virginia blue catfish
- 51:43Speaker 7: to sell you.
- 51:45Speaker 4: Yes, we were.
- 51:46Speaker 7: We engaged with them kinetically. How many Americans have died
- 51:50Speaker 7: at the financial backing of Iran?
- 51:55Speaker 4: Just saying I mean, at some point.
- 52:02Speaker 7: You have to stand up and say, all right, we're
- 52:04Speaker 7: filing RICO charges against you. This is a criminal conspiracy
- 52:09Speaker 7: to kill Americans and Westerners in this jihad for some
- 52:16Speaker 7: theocracy that will take over the.
- 52:18Speaker 4: World, and we're not going to take it anymore. That's
- 52:23Speaker 4: what this is.
- 52:23Speaker 7: It's not a new war. It's a new tactic in
- 52:27Speaker 7: a very old war. So as the American army retreated
- 52:35Speaker 7: to Valley Forge and met up with perhaps the biggest
- 52:39Speaker 7: hero of the American Revolution, Baron von Steuben. After the
- 52:43Speaker 7: routing at the Battle of Brandywine, we come back and
- 52:48Speaker 7: cross the Delaware.
