Transcript
- 0:02Speaker 1: We've cut the cost of radio listening. By hell, it
- 0:05Speaker 1: didn't cost anything in the first place.
- 0:07Speaker 2: So let's say one million dollars.
- 0:11Speaker 1: Call it First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the
- 0:15Speaker 1: Chunk Media.
- 0:16Speaker 3: Network, George said, steal me.

- 0:38Speaker 2: Let it be Joe. Thank you for letting me be
- 0:41Speaker 2: of service to you across the talk media network. Leadership
- 0:46Speaker 2: in the Senate, you know, keeping the Senate majority, and
- 0:49Speaker 2: I know that there are places where you know it's
- 0:52Speaker 2: not going to become a big story, but I think
- 0:54Speaker 2: there are places where you know the votes are there
- 0:58Speaker 2: if you can have it. We're visiting with Kim Farrington,
- 1:00Speaker 2: who wants to be one of those upstarts that is
- 1:03Speaker 2: going to come in and make CNN's anchors eat crow
- 1:06Speaker 2: on election night in November. Kim, you mentioned your decades
- 1:12Speaker 2: in military at the Pentagon and in the War Department.
- 1:17Speaker 2: Because it's you know, the vote they just took yesterday,
- 1:20Speaker 2: I have to ask about war powers. Do you think
- 1:25Speaker 2: the president has been justified in how he's conducted our
- 1:29Speaker 2: actions in Iran. Would you like to see more advice
- 1:33Speaker 2: and consent or do you think he's done a sufficient
- 1:36Speaker 2: job going to, you know, the intelligence community and bringing
- 1:40Speaker 2: them in to talk to the Senate and the House
- 1:43Speaker 2: as necessary.
- 1:47Speaker 4: I fully support the way President Trump is pursuing this
- 1:52Speaker 4: Iranian situation. He is an excellent, strong leader, and it's
- 1:59Speaker 4: about time someone a president actually ends this war that's
- 2:05Speaker 4: been going on for forty seven years. And I think
- 2:08Speaker 4: that the way he's handling it is I fully support
- 2:12Speaker 4: the way he's handling it. He's he's following it. I
- 2:17Speaker 4: appreciate him bringing the intelligence community into the mix, but
- 2:22Speaker 4: I think he's doing it as he's authorized by his
- 2:26Speaker 4: presidential powers.
- 2:27Speaker 5: Okay, as the commander in chief.
- 2:30Speaker 2: Kim, It's Kim for Virginia dot Org is the website,
- 2:35Speaker 2: and you said you're starting a road trip to barnstorm
- 2:39Speaker 2: this state all beginning tomorrow, So look for her as
- 2:45Speaker 2: she's out there. I've got to get our first things
- 2:47Speaker 2: on here so people know what we're talking about, Kim,
- 2:50Speaker 2: So hang on for a moment. But and you know,
- 2:54Speaker 2: I think a lot of folks are wishing you luck,
- 2:56Speaker 2: and that would be kind of fun to get all
- 2:58Speaker 2: those Virginians turned out, and as an example to folks
- 3:03Speaker 2: like the Californians who are sort of leading the way
- 3:06Speaker 2: in this insurgency of conservatives. Sorry, we haven't really run
- 3:11Speaker 2: up right now, but should we should probably change his
- 3:14Speaker 2: nickname to Beijing Bernie. Bernie Sanders convened a panel on
- 3:18Speaker 2: Capitol Hill to discuss the existential threat of artificial intelligence.
- 3:23Speaker 2: And I'm sure if your state is anything like mine,
- 3:26Speaker 2: you've been hit with people who have been saying you've
- 3:29Speaker 2: got to do something to stop AI and the and
- 3:33Speaker 2: the data centers from coming into your community. Well, apparently
- 3:39Speaker 2: this is being paid for by China. China has been
- 3:43Speaker 2: as we learn during World War Two and Vietnam, some
- 3:48Speaker 2: misinformation has been paid for by the Chinese Communist Party
- 3:53Speaker 2: and it may actually include being a behind Bernie Sanders
- 3:59Speaker 2: campaign against artificial intelligence. President Trump, meanwhile, yesterday has told
- 4:05Speaker 2: AIDS he will not break the ceasefire with Iran or
- 4:09Speaker 2: resume full scale military operations unless American troops find their
- 4:14Speaker 2: way into Iranian crosshairs. Meanwhile, Abbas Arachi, Iranian foreign ministers,
- 4:20Speaker 2: said there has been no tangible progress towards a final agreement.
- 4:27Speaker 2: Secretary of State Marco Rubio sat before the House and
- 4:30Speaker 2: Senate and said that we're no longer conducting sustained strikes
- 4:35Speaker 2: inside Iran to degrade their military because Operation Epic Fury
- 4:41Speaker 2: is over. The House took a vote yesterday on war powers,
- 4:47Speaker 2: and four Republicans, including Thomas Massey of Kentucky, but also
- 4:53Speaker 2: congress people from just outside Cincinnati and Philadelphia and Lansing, Michigan,
- 5:01Speaker 2: all voted along with Massey to reign in the president's
- 5:07Speaker 2: authority to conduct military action. Ruben Diego, Arizona Democrat is
- 5:12Speaker 2: looking to overturn a Trump policy that would make Green
- 5:15Speaker 2: card applicants go back home to get themselves approved for
- 5:20Speaker 2: that green card. He also said he's getting ready to
- 5:24Speaker 2: head to the G seven summit in France after the
- 5:27Speaker 2: World Wrestling the UFC Championship match that's going to go
- 5:33Speaker 2: on on the South Lawn, and he's going to direct
- 5:38Speaker 2: his administration, Dan Scavino specifically to begin the process of
- 5:43Speaker 2: getting Todd Blanched made permanent ag and head up the
- 5:48Speaker 2: Department of Justice.
- 5:54Speaker 6: Every state is home to significant historic sites that tell
- 5:58Speaker 6: the American story, but not every site is telling that story.
- 6:01Speaker 6: Honestly and fairly. That's why the Heritage Foundation created the
- 6:05Speaker 6: Heritage Guide to Historic Sites. This interactive guide equips American
- 6:10Speaker 6: citizens with the tools they need to enjoy the sites
- 6:13Speaker 6: that depict.
- 6:14Speaker 7: Some of the greatest moments in our nation's history, analyzing
- 6:17Speaker 7: them for historical accuracy, and provides resources for families or
- 6:22Speaker 7: educators planning a visit. It currently covers over forty five
- 6:26Speaker 7: sites in the thirteen original colonies, but sites from all
- 6:29Speaker 7: fifty states will be added in time for citizens to
- 6:33Speaker 7: celebrate America to fifty this summer. From Mount Vernon to
- 6:36Speaker 7: Independence Hall to Gettysburg and more.
- 6:39Speaker 6: Americans deserve transparency, and sites that steward our history faithfully
- 6:44Speaker 6: deserve our gratitude. The Heritage Guide to Historic Sites invites
- 6:48Speaker 6: every American to rediscover the places and stories that define
- 6:53Speaker 6: our nation, whether it's across the country or in your backyard.

- 8:04Speaker 10: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 8:07Speaker 10: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
- 8:13Speaker 10: am Doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 8:18Speaker 10: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 8:22Speaker 10: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 8:26Speaker 10: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 8:32Speaker 10: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and
- 8:36Speaker 10: inflammation has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can
- 8:42Speaker 10: prevent cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer,
- 8:46Speaker 10: and in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects
- 8:51Speaker 10: our healthy cells even from radiation. Total Wellness dot com

- 9:58Speaker 12: Hiverybody, I'm Jack. It's always a boy growing up on
- 10:01Speaker 12: a farm in Tennessee. I've been fascinated with animals. I'm
- 10:04Speaker 12: not only in awe of their beauty and kindness, but
- 10:06Speaker 12: also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the birds
- 10:09Speaker 12: who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes who
- 10:13Speaker 12: work hard to provide for their young, or penguins who
- 10:15Speaker 12: travel up to five hundred miles to secure food for
- 10:18Speaker 12: their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows them
- 10:21Speaker 12: to navigate the trees and the wild in search of fruit.
- 10:24Speaker 12: This remarkable work ethic is shared by our best friends,
- 10:26Speaker 12: the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets at home,
- 10:30Speaker 12: but because of their acute senses, they also perform life
- 10:33Speaker 12: saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe at airports.
- 10:36Speaker 12: They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTSS.
- 10:39Speaker 12: They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change
- 10:42Speaker 12: in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of
- 10:44Speaker 12: highly trained roles that contribute to society and help those
- 10:47Speaker 12: in need. So please join me an American Humane and

- 11:01Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, he's starting with the woots.
- 11:05Speaker 14: And now a speech.
- 11:07Speaker 15: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
- 11:10Speaker 15: heart and brain.
- 11:12Speaker 2: Who's with me?
- 11:13Speaker 13: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and.
- 11:15Speaker 15: My brain is saying when it's time to go home.
- 11:18Speaker 2: Somebody call me a ride.
- 11:19Speaker 13: Love that guy, me too.
- 11:21Speaker 16: Know your buzzed warning signs.
- 11:23Speaker 8: Call for a ride when it's time to go home.
- 11:25Speaker 8: Buzz driving is drunk driving.
- 11:29Speaker 17: Did you know that more than half our household energy
- 11:31Speaker 17: costs go to heating and cooling. Energy efficiency isn't just
- 11:35Speaker 17: good for the environment, It means lower utility bills too.
- 11:39Speaker 17: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
- 11:42Speaker 17: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can

- 11:53Speaker 17: leaks around windows and doors, check ducks for holes, and
- 11:56Speaker 17: improve your insulation. Another time to cut energy costs is

- 12:32Speaker 18: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
- 12:35Speaker 18: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
- 12:40Speaker 18: anger could be a sign of a larger health concern,

- 13:12Speaker 2: On your to do list.
- 13:13Speaker 1: Putting the radio on is the first thing today, bad thing.
- 13:26Speaker 2: And he'd be very popular. He's upselling there in the
- 13:28Speaker 2: Burger King drive throughs and he it's Charlie Pride Month,
- 13:33Speaker 2: just in case you're wondering, Like, okay, Joe keeps saying
- 13:35Speaker 2: it's Pride month, and it's sad to say that. Sometimes
- 13:39Speaker 2: you need to have that explained there. But I want
- 13:43Speaker 2: to talk a little bit. Kim Farrington on with us,
- 13:45Speaker 2: and I want to talk about John Thune in the
- 13:48Speaker 2: Senate and his leadership. Should he keep it? But this
- 13:51Speaker 2: Beijing Bernie story is not just because it's kind of
- 13:55Speaker 2: fun to talk about and give him a new nickname,
- 13:58Speaker 2: but how China is doing the same thing it was
- 14:01Speaker 2: doing and that Russia was doing before. It is paying
- 14:05Speaker 2: for the weaponization of the very things that we hold dear,
- 14:10Speaker 2: like our ability to have a conversation with somebody and
- 14:14Speaker 2: to be very You know, if you have somebody who
- 14:17Speaker 2: comes in and says, I'm an expert and here's what
- 14:20Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you about, that's one thing. But
- 14:23Speaker 2: if you're just putting the radio on, or a senator
- 14:27Speaker 2: sitting there and.
- 14:27Speaker 20: Saying, oh, I I think we should let China do
- 14:31Speaker 20: all the AI for us, which is obstensibly what he
- 14:37Speaker 20: is doing, and then you find out that he's getting
- 14:41Speaker 20: all his money for this campaign through the chi cooms.
- 14:50Speaker 20: It should be worth noting that Bernie Sanders is one
- 14:54Speaker 20: of these people who's constantly under investigation for some sort
- 14:58Speaker 20: of malfeasance in office. Anyway, Kim Bernie's uh Bernie's boss
- 15:07Speaker 20: and the Senate John Thune leadership battle. You want to
- 15:11Speaker 20: be a US senator, so tell me, Tell everyone, tell
- 15:14Speaker 20: the listener. We know, would you keep John Thune on?
- 15:18Speaker 20: Would you vote to keep him as a leaders?
- 15:21Speaker 4: But I need to be up there to help resolve
- 15:25Speaker 4: the issues and understand why Thune is not moving us
- 15:32Speaker 4: forward and make the recommendations to help him move forward.
- 15:36Speaker 4: And if he's if he's disregarding what the President is
- 15:40Speaker 4: trying to do, and there are there are invalid reasons
- 15:44Speaker 4: for that, then yes, I think President Trump should uh
- 15:48Speaker 4: and the Senate should should find a way to again
- 15:52Speaker 4: work together and move this country forward.
- 15:55Speaker 2: You know, I was at a meeting yesterday of some
- 15:58Speaker 2: conservative leaders and again the issue came up of support
- 16:02Speaker 2: from the big party from you know, the rn C
- 16:08Speaker 2: for Virginia, and I made the case that these are
- 16:11Speaker 2: the kind of things this coming Senate race is going
- 16:15Speaker 2: to be indicative. I don't think there's going to be
- 16:18Speaker 2: a lot of money in advance coming into the race,
- 16:22Speaker 2: but you know, a victory changes a lot of people's
- 16:25Speaker 2: view as to whether the Republican Party can support stuff
- 16:30Speaker 2: going on in Virginia. I'm not saying you're expecting to
- 16:33Speaker 2: get big support from the r n C, but talk
- 16:36Speaker 2: about the grassroots effort to get the money necessary because
- 16:40Speaker 2: you know, Mark Warner is going to have it right.
- 16:44Speaker 4: And I think you raised a very good point, and
- 16:46Speaker 4: that is.
- 16:48Speaker 5: Mark Warner is one of.
- 16:50Speaker 4: The richest senators that we currently have sitting in the Senate,
- 16:55Speaker 4: So really no one will have the amount of money
- 16:58Speaker 4: that it will take to eat him if we just
- 17:02Speaker 4: rely on how much money is in our war chest.
- 17:05Speaker 4: Which is why I'm taking a different approach and really
- 17:08Speaker 4: doing that grassroots approach to my campaign as part of
- 17:13Speaker 4: my strategy, because again, it's not going to come down
- 17:16Speaker 4: to who has the most money that's going to win.
- 17:19Speaker 4: It's going to come down to who is going to
- 17:21Speaker 4: get the most votes. And that's my grassroots approach. It's
- 17:25Speaker 4: been successful since I initiated my campaign nineteen months ago,
- 17:31Speaker 4: and I look forward to continuing it. And that's how
- 17:34Speaker 4: I'm going to win. I'm going to win with votes.
- 17:39Speaker 2: It has to be grassroots. I know somebody asked about
- 17:42Speaker 2: this because the press hasn't been covering it very much,
- 17:46Speaker 2: but a present company excluded there Kim talk about that
- 17:52Speaker 2: fighting the name recognition, fighting, you know, an uphill battle
- 17:57Speaker 2: for you know, the eyes and ears before the hearts
- 18:01Speaker 2: and minds. As our friend Tom talks about.
- 18:05Speaker 4: Right, and that's what I'm doing as part of my campaign.
- 18:09Speaker 4: I'm introducing myself to the residents of Virginia, the voters,
- 18:14Speaker 4: and then I'm listening to their concerns and it's working
- 18:19Speaker 4: out great. I have people across the commonwealth just reaching
- 18:24Speaker 4: out to me, and that's the other thing that I'm
- 18:26Speaker 4: doing as part of my campaign is I'm giving them
- 18:29Speaker 4: my personal cell number and my personal email because I
- 18:34Speaker 4: want to work for them, and by doing that, they
- 18:38Speaker 4: are actually reaching out to me. So I know, I
- 18:41Speaker 4: didn't have not a lot of name recognition when I
- 18:44Speaker 4: first started, but now I'm getting that name recognition and
- 18:49Speaker 4: I'm getting people when I walk into an event or
- 18:53Speaker 4: even festivals, they actually are coming up.
- 18:56Speaker 5: To me and excited to actually meet me.
- 18:59Speaker 4: In person, and because they've heard about me and they're
- 19:03Speaker 4: excited to actually meet me. So my name recognition is
- 19:06Speaker 4: getting out there. My approach does seem to be working,
- 19:10Speaker 4: and I'm going to continue to do that as I
- 19:14Speaker 4: begin my next road trip just tomorrow afternoon.
- 19:17Speaker 2: Kim four Virginia dot Org. There, Kim, last question for you.
- 19:24Speaker 2: We talk about, you know, what you know is currently
- 19:28Speaker 2: going on? What are the things you want to do
- 19:31Speaker 2: when you're in the Senate, what are the things that
- 19:34Speaker 2: aren't being done that you want to do and spearhead
- 19:37Speaker 2: as a representative of the Commonwealth.
- 19:43Speaker 4: I appreciate that question. I want to first of all,
- 19:47Speaker 4: support our military, our veterans, and our first responders and
- 19:51Speaker 4: their families because that is very important to me. With
- 19:55Speaker 4: the sixteen years I spent at Department of Defense then
- 19:58Speaker 4: now War supporting our military and our veterans, and I
- 20:04Speaker 4: retired from the one hundred billion dollar First Responder Network
- 20:08Speaker 4: Authority as the chief financial Officer, where I saw what
- 20:13Speaker 4: our first responders do every day, all day. So I
- 20:16Speaker 4: will be supporting them, and that's what I'll be doing
- 20:19Speaker 4: day one is reauthorizing the First Responder Network Authority for
- 20:26Speaker 4: our first responders so that we cannot only protect our
- 20:29Speaker 4: first responders, but then also they can support and protect
- 20:34Speaker 4: our communities and save more lives as a result of
- 20:37Speaker 4: that reauthorization I'll be doing day one, and most importantly
- 20:43Speaker 4: for more of Virginia, I'm actually going to be focusing
- 20:48Speaker 4: on following the money. I am a CPA and Washington's
- 20:54Speaker 4: broken and I know how to fix it. So I
- 20:57Speaker 4: want to become Virginia's CPA, and unlike the hundreds of
- 21:03Speaker 4: people that we do send to Washington, they are not
- 21:07Speaker 4: trained on how to follow the money. So I am
- 21:11Speaker 4: really focused on going after the fraud, the waste, the
- 21:16Speaker 4: inefficiencies in those government programs that I saw firsthand when
- 21:22Speaker 4: I worked in federal government those thirty three years. And
- 21:26Speaker 4: I want to fix that because I just think it's
- 21:29Speaker 4: ridiculous that we raise taxes to pay for programs that
- 21:34Speaker 4: are so fraudulent and these frusters get away with it,
- 21:38Speaker 4: and I've I think that's unacceptable. So I'm going up
- 21:41Speaker 4: to the US Senate to fix that and hold programs
- 21:47Speaker 4: accountable and make sure that I follow the money. The
- 21:52Speaker 4: trillions of dollars we spend each year, we need somebody

- 22:07Speaker 10: actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric

- 24:07Speaker 10: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
- 24:13Speaker 10: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 24:18Speaker 10: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 24:22Speaker 10: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 24:26Speaker 10: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 24:31Speaker 10: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 24:36Speaker 10: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 24:42Speaker 10: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 24:45Speaker 10: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

- 28:12Speaker 1: Making mornings great again. First Thing Today on the Tunk
- 28:16Speaker 1: Media Network by Joe Thomas.
- 28:30Speaker 2: So a lot of reaction hamp down in the Treasure
- 28:34Speaker 2: Coast says, come on, Joe, if you vote for her
- 28:36Speaker 2: in Virginia, you deserve her. She was there thirty three
- 28:40Speaker 2: years and hadn't done anything about it. Why wasn't she
- 28:43Speaker 2: a whistleblower? You know? These are the things you want
- 28:48Speaker 2: to find out. This is what I've said is you
- 28:51Speaker 2: want to know. You know, if somebody is running for
- 28:56Speaker 2: office and you want to get the answers from them,
- 28:59Speaker 2: you ask the questions. And it's not whether or not
- 29:05Speaker 2: you did anything about it, but if you saw it
- 29:09Speaker 2: happening thirty years that could be a red flag for you.
- 29:14Speaker 2: I don't have a problem with it being a red flag.
- 29:16Speaker 2: There are several folks running in the primary. She's the
- 29:19Speaker 2: one with the biggest name recognition right now, and that's
- 29:23Speaker 2: going to change as you know, the months weighing on,
- 29:26Speaker 2: as they will in every place. You know, Florida's got
- 29:34Speaker 2: down you know, your way, every every house seat. It's
- 29:39Speaker 2: going to be up here in the midterms, the governor's race.
- 29:43Speaker 5: You know.
- 29:44Speaker 2: It's fascinating to me is when people, you know, want
- 29:48Speaker 2: to have a representative government, but when it doesn't represent
- 29:54Speaker 2: them specifically. See this is this is such a great
- 30:00Speaker 2: opportunity to point out that we're all left and right
- 30:04Speaker 2: asking the government to do too much. The left doesn't
- 30:09Speaker 2: realize it because in their mind that's who is supposed
- 30:11Speaker 2: to be doing it all. Virginia's primaries are on Hily nineteenth,
- 30:28Speaker 2: and yours in Florida or August for these things. And
- 30:37Speaker 2: that's the best way to do it, is Florida is
- 30:40Speaker 2: wait to the last minute, have the primary, and then
- 30:43Speaker 2: just get right on it, dog on it. I mean
- 30:46Speaker 2: some of these places that are having primaries, like California.
- 30:49Speaker 2: Obviously California had to have a primary on June tewod
- 30:53Speaker 2: because it's going to take them till August nineteenth to
- 30:57Speaker 2: finish all the count Oh gosh, now they see they
- 31:05Speaker 2: said he lost his place again. He's gonna have to
- 31:08Speaker 2: one two to Please don't interrupt him again. He was
- 31:14Speaker 2: getting so close. But that's gonna be one of the
- 31:21Speaker 2: bigger questions, is you know what is the difference? John
- 31:30Speaker 2: Thune was going to be the change maker. Remember it
- 31:33Speaker 2: was him or Red flag Rick Scott, those were the
- 31:36Speaker 2: front runners to replace Mitch McConnell. Would you prefer red
- 31:40Speaker 2: flag Rick Scott? Or what about Ted Cruz? Oh I
- 31:46Speaker 2: got torched. Ted Cruz is a career public servant, Joe,
- 31:51Speaker 2: how dare you demean him with your comments? He's trying
- 31:56Speaker 2: to fix a broken college athletics system for all the
- 32:01Speaker 2: myriad of Texas children who are looking at college as
- 32:06Speaker 2: or their athletic ability as their opportunity to get into
- 32:10Speaker 2: a college. Well, but it's not. It's now it's going
- 32:13Speaker 2: to be your ability to fundraise, your ability to get
- 32:16Speaker 2: a sponsor. You think the best drivers wind up in NASCAR? No,
- 32:23Speaker 2: it's it's some guy, you know. I mean the best
- 32:26Speaker 2: case was Minard Paul Minard. Gee, Paul Monard's car was
- 32:32Speaker 2: sponsored by Minard's hardware store chain. How did that happen?
- 32:40Speaker 2: These car companies, these these race teams. If you show
- 32:43Speaker 2: up and say, yeah, I've got a contract with NAPA.
- 32:46Speaker 2: If you'll give me a ride, you'll get all the
- 32:49Speaker 2: sponsorship money, save what I keep. That's how you get
- 32:54Speaker 2: a ride in NASCAR, show up with sponsors. That's how
- 32:59Speaker 2: you're going to get the college athletics. And so you're
- 33:01Speaker 2: mad at me because I said, we really we dodged
- 33:04Speaker 2: a bullet in twenty sixteen when President Trump beat ted
- 33:07Speaker 2: Cruz for the nomination. But it was this the kind
- 33:11Speaker 2: of president he was going to be because I cannot
- 33:16Speaker 2: because I don't hold an elected position. Yes, your choice
- 33:20Speaker 2: to put the radio on is an election. It's a
- 33:23Speaker 2: vote if you will, but you know I don't. If
- 33:30Speaker 2: somebody doesn't listen to me, doesn't mean I've failed, It
- 33:33Speaker 2: just means I haven't grabbed their ear yet. I have
- 33:37Speaker 2: to tell you the truth. That's all I've got, and
- 33:42Speaker 2: it's not paid for by China like Beijing. Bernie Sanders
- 33:46Speaker 2: is and the anti data center movement, which I'm glad
- 33:53Speaker 2: to see. I wasn't opposing it just because it was wrong.
- 33:57Speaker 2: It was wrong, it was based on faulty information, and
- 34:00Speaker 2: now we know why. It was based on the Chinese
- 34:04Speaker 2: Communist Party wanting wanting us to say, you know what
- 34:07Speaker 2: we don't like data centers. Why don't we do it
- 34:09Speaker 2: all in China? How'd that work out for gain of
- 34:12Speaker 2: function research? Too? But yeah, I mean it, Ted Kruz,
- 34:17Speaker 2: he's doing a classic. Two wrongs are going to make
- 34:20Speaker 2: a right. The government's going to regulate college athletics, you mean,
- 34:25Speaker 2: the way they regulate their spending. That's going to make
- 34:28Speaker 2: it better. But I get your point. I'm not saying
- 34:32Speaker 2: you're wrong to have angst over some of these folks,
- 34:35Speaker 2: but we've got to ask, and we've got to hear.
- 34:37Speaker 2: Got to know we've got tons of them all over there.
- 34:41Speaker 2: Good morning, you're on the air with Joe. First thing
- 34:43Speaker 2: this morning. Who's this?
- 34:45Speaker 5: Good morning, Joe. It's Kareem.
- 34:47Speaker 2: Hey, Kareem. How are you doing this morning?
- 34:49Speaker 5: So far, so good.
- 34:50Speaker 23: I'm driving into the sun in Pennsylvania, but at least beautiful.
- 34:53Speaker 2: All right, Well, just be careful with that, because that's
- 34:56Speaker 2: that's how these accidents happen, unless you're an illegal or
- 35:00Speaker 2: questionably legal bus driver immigrant from Staten Island, New York,
- 35:04Speaker 2: in which case you just plow into the back of
- 35:06Speaker 2: stopped traffic.
- 35:07Speaker 23: Anyway, Well I look like one, but I'm not anyway
- 35:11Speaker 23: alone stops.
- 35:14Speaker 2: You're as American as I am. Hold it, waite, What
- 35:16Speaker 2: am I saying before? What's on your mind? What?
- 35:21Speaker 5: What?
- 35:21Speaker 2: What have you got for us? Well, going back.
- 35:24Speaker 23: To Ted Cruise's proposal, I'm not a fan of Cruise
- 35:27Speaker 23: to begin with, but I do think again, his heart's
- 35:30Speaker 23: in the right place.
- 35:32Speaker 5: But there's only a.
- 35:33Speaker 23: Handful of universities and colleges that don't take federal money,
- 35:36Speaker 23: which means they don't have federal they don't have federal
- 35:39Speaker 23: tentacles inside them.
- 35:40Speaker 5: And the loudest among them, as Hillsdale setting out aside,
- 35:44Speaker 5: UH just want to come out a text I sent
- 35:46Speaker 5: earlier to you that I'm going to expand on. Uh
- 35:50Speaker 5: and Uh, I do realize you got great coming out.
- 35:54Speaker 2: I try to read all of these. Let me see
- 35:56Speaker 2: if I didn't see your text or got buried in
- 35:59Speaker 2: some ways, go ahead and tell me what it said.
- 36:02Speaker 23: Okay, So this is this is uh, it's The world
- 36:07Speaker 23: is full of sound. Some of it's got signals, some
- 36:10Speaker 23: of it's just noise. But one of the sounds that
- 36:13Speaker 23: is starting to pick up get echoes is At last Wednesday,
- 36:18Speaker 23: the Foreign Minister of Iran spoke to the President of
- 36:23Speaker 23: President of Pakistan and gave them three points that they
- 36:27Speaker 23: wanted to relay to the US because Pakistan's being the
- 36:29Speaker 23: Inemny intermediary essentially. Uh, and I won't go into details,
- 36:35Speaker 23: but it was a progression.
- 36:37Speaker 5: It was warnings progression. And the third point was more
- 36:41Speaker 5: of a.
- 36:41Speaker 23: Threat, but not not as an external force, but a
- 36:46Speaker 23: show of force inside the Roan's own boundaries. They said
- 36:50Speaker 23: they would, uh, this is in back and google the
- 36:53Speaker 23: news if they want to hear the details. If things
- 36:57Speaker 23: progress and there's a new commandee he's lost half his
- 37:00Speaker 23: body and most of his family.
- 37:02Speaker 5: That it was a it was a religious font.
- 37:05Speaker 23: Whether they didn't accept or didn't pursue nuclear bombs, that's
- 37:10Speaker 23: been going on for over twenty years. But they said,
- 37:13Speaker 23: if things progress and there's an extent essential crisis, Iran
- 37:17Speaker 23: will show a force by detonating a nuclear device in
- 37:21Speaker 23: their desert.
- 37:22Speaker 5: Anyway, I'm just gonna leave out there, y'all have have
- 37:24Speaker 5: a good day.
- 37:25Speaker 2: Joe in whose desert because I sort of saw that, Sorry,
- 37:29Speaker 2: and I remember the meeting last week, but I think
- 37:33Speaker 2: they just I read it to mean they were going
- 37:35Speaker 2: to blow up something in their own desert just to
- 37:38Speaker 2: say this is what we can do.
- 37:41Speaker 5: That's that's that's what I understand as well.
- 37:43Speaker 23: They were going to detonate a nuclear device, the origin unknown, right,
- 37:48Speaker 23: but it detonated in their own desert to show that, Okay, finally,
- 37:53Speaker 23: you've been pushing us for.
- 37:54Speaker 2: Four yep, and there we went, just in time for
- 37:57Speaker 2: us to say, I'll poke around that in a moment.

- 44:18Speaker 27: The old hometown looks the same as I snipped down
- 44:25Speaker 27: from the train and there to meet me is my
- 44:31Speaker 27: mama and Papa.
- 44:36Speaker 2: As we celebrate Pride Month a couple of you know.
- 44:40Speaker 2: So let me pick back up on the Iranian threats
- 44:44Speaker 2: that Kareem called about for a minute here, and then
- 44:47Speaker 2: we'll get into and and Hamp, you know, to pick
- 44:52Speaker 2: up on what you were saying about primaries. I mean,
- 44:57Speaker 2: I would have to devote every show, every day, for
- 45:02Speaker 2: every week to everyone who's showing up in Florida's primaries.
- 45:06Speaker 2: I think, Hamp, you're on the ballot for governor. I
- 45:10Speaker 2: don't know if you know that or not. It just
- 45:11Speaker 2: seems like everyone is on the ballot and it's a
- 45:14Speaker 2: process of elimination. We'll just keep going through people. Yeah,
- 45:19Speaker 2: we have a process or you have to get the
- 45:21Speaker 2: fifty percent, but we make sure that there's seventy five
- 45:24Speaker 2: people running. Oooh man, and I get it. These are
- 45:31Speaker 2: jobs that appear lucrative. These are jobs that lead to
- 45:37Speaker 2: other jobs. So maybe you you're a governor for a term,
- 45:40Speaker 2: and then you can be a lobbyist for the rest
- 45:42Speaker 2: of your life, never have to work for pay again,
- 45:46Speaker 2: a government wage. And I like the folks who get
- 45:52Speaker 2: out and they say, well, you know, these staffers and
- 45:55Speaker 2: these people in government make a lot of money, because
- 45:57Speaker 2: we want to get the best and brightest. No, I
- 45:59Speaker 2: want the best and brightest, to say, in the private
- 46:02Speaker 2: sector where they can do the most good. And if
- 46:06Speaker 2: it was to be me running for Senate against anyone anywhere,
- 46:15Speaker 2: we would go issue by issue and what my votes
- 46:21Speaker 2: and what my efforts would be on each issue, whether
- 46:24Speaker 2: it be the rights of the unborn, your Second Amendment rights,
- 46:29Speaker 2: but the overarching one would be to get the government
- 46:32Speaker 2: reined in out of your economic opportunity, lift the regulatory
- 46:42Speaker 2: constraints that are only benefiting the big corporations, and move
- 46:51Speaker 2: from there into your economic prosperity. And yes, we are
- 46:56Speaker 2: going to have to have a recidivist program. And I
- 47:01Speaker 2: call it that because I think in order to heal
- 47:04Speaker 2: this nation from the great society, we've been in prison
- 47:09Speaker 2: since nineteen sixty four. And like the Charlie Pride song
- 47:16Speaker 2: sings the house, you know, my old hometown looks the same,
- 47:21Speaker 2: but it's different. And so we've been in economic prison
- 47:30Speaker 2: since nineteen sixty four. And I know I promised I
- 47:34Speaker 2: would get into Kareem's point about the Iranian bombs which
- 47:39Speaker 2: they claim they don't have, but then they'll threaten to
- 47:41Speaker 2: blow up. Just say, but to finish the point on
- 47:47Speaker 2: a basing our recovery out of a recidivism program, we
- 47:54Speaker 2: can't go and hang out with the same people. Ask
- 47:57Speaker 2: anyone who works in true criminals cidavism programs. You can't
- 48:02Speaker 2: go and hang out with the same people used to
- 48:05Speaker 2: hang out with before you went to jail. If you
- 48:13Speaker 2: need help, you know, getting back on your feet, that
- 48:17Speaker 2: can be made available without it being a subsidy. And
- 48:25Speaker 2: he writes and mesis driven, Yeah, this is going back.
- 48:30Speaker 2: Milton Friedman is the chief economic advisor. Capital isn't cash,
- 48:40Speaker 2: Just like we said yesterday, the Kenjian believes that cash
- 48:44Speaker 2: is the same thing as capital. Wealth is not just money,
- 48:49Speaker 2: it's not just gold. What do you have? What are
- 48:52Speaker 2: your assets? And it's yours and it's yours alone. And
- 48:59Speaker 2: tax has to be based around the idea of a
- 49:03Speaker 2: voluntary contribution to your government to pay for the things
- 49:07Speaker 2: that they need, a case for which has to be made.
- 49:11Speaker 2: These all things, these things are easily brought. And if
- 49:17Speaker 2: you get to Washington and you realize the fix is
- 49:20Speaker 2: in with things like the Speaker of tho House having
- 49:24Speaker 2: dictatorial control over bills that are going to be brought
- 49:27Speaker 2: up for a vote. You go back to your district
- 49:30Speaker 2: and out that say this is wrong, even if it's
- 49:34Speaker 2: your own party. God, I hope it's your You know,
- 49:38Speaker 2: people have the courage to do that. That's what we
- 49:41Speaker 2: need to do. We need to be going up there
- 49:42Speaker 2: and running a recidivius program because we've been in debtors prison.
- 49:51Speaker 2: We've been in jail since the early sixties, so of
- 49:58Speaker 2: course we don't know what to do on the outside
- 50:00Speaker 2: once we leave this economic jail. We need some recidivius programs.
- 50:07Speaker 2: And I would call them that, and people would get
- 50:10Speaker 2: mad and they'd say, you're making the light of the
- 50:13Speaker 2: criminal recidivism progress. No I'm not. I'm saying we need
- 50:16Speaker 2: one for our economic prison that we've been in so
- 50:21Speaker 2: that we can reclaim our independence and our rights. That's
- 50:26Speaker 2: I mean. If you want to know how I would
- 50:27Speaker 2: run for US Senate or the House, or governor, mayor
- 50:33Speaker 2: Butcher Baker Candlestick maker me. Every morning, I run to
- 50:37Speaker 2: be your favorite radio show, and I can only do
- 50:41Speaker 2: it by telling you the truth. I'm not saying anyone
- 50:43Speaker 2: else is going to agree with me, except maybe you.
- 50:48Speaker 2: But we have to drag him in here and tell
- 50:51Speaker 2: us what they think. And in a lot of cases
- 50:55Speaker 2: you'll look at them and say, all right, well it's
- 50:57Speaker 2: better than so and so. I mean, seventy five people
- 51:01Speaker 2: running for governor in the Republican primary in Florida, and
- 51:05Speaker 2: Byron Donald's has fifty four percent under the latest bowl
- 51:09Speaker 2: and the nearest guy has nine. Oh my gosh, there
- 51:14Speaker 2: must be a lot of money to donate to these
- 51:16Speaker 2: kind of campaigns. But bless you, you're bringing up points.
- 51:20Speaker 2: If if these campaigns are being used to bring up
- 51:23Speaker 2: questions and to make Byron Donald's a better governor, have
- 51:27Speaker 2: ad it, have at it. But about Iran and their
- 51:35Speaker 2: threats of oh will blow up a bomb, oh will
- 51:38Speaker 2: close the straight. Okay, we called your bluff and the
- 51:42Speaker 2: world is seeing you for what you are. But this
- 51:45Speaker 2: is what Iran has done in mystique for almost fifty years.
- 51:52Speaker 2: Don't threaten us, or we will close this straight of Hormuz.
- 51:57Speaker 2: Don't tell us we can't be a dictatory theocracy, or
- 52:01Speaker 2: we're going to close the straits of horror moves. Don't
- 52:04Speaker 2: tell us what we can do or invade militarily. We
- 52:08Speaker 2: want the straight of horror moves and so we need
- 52:14Speaker 2: an answer to that question. And I learned from Donald
- 52:23Speaker 2: Trump in the nineteen seventies. Never judge of building. Donald
- 52:27Speaker 2: Trump is building until it's finished. Just saying time for
- 52:34Speaker 2: us to roll. We are going to be live from
- 52:35Speaker 2: I believe Hofstra University or perhaps the parking lot of
- 52:39Speaker 2: Hofstu University. I have to speak at an industry conference
- 52:42Speaker 2: after the show tomorrow. Will be live from Long Island
- 52:45Speaker 2: on Saturday as well. So long and thanks for all
- 52:48Speaker 2: the fish.
- 52:51Speaker 13: Crime across the country is at an all time high.
- 52:54Speaker 13: It feels like even a family road trip is taking
- 52:56Speaker 13: a risk. We don't want the feeling of being unprotected
- 52:59Speaker 13: and vulnerable. We found GETCCL dot com. Get ccl dot
