• 0:44
  Speaker 1: one seven. Those are the digits you need, uh as
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: we tell you what went on since last we spoke,
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: we analyze it through our spectral analyzer, our tricorder, and
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: then after we chew on the little bit, I want
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: to hear how it's impacting you where you are. It
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: may be hitting you completely differently where you are, and
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: that's all good. That is all good as well. At
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: four three four eight eight two four two one seven
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: works two ways. It's a text message hotline which everyone
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: loves to use because warnings are busy. I get it,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: and it doesn't matter which end of the morning you're
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: coming in on Like Bob out listening to us on
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Freedom nine seventy in Portland, is wrapping up the day
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: and and he sends me this, uh, this graphic from
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: the web warning some of the dangers of sin. Oh,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, see it's it's the Christopher Walken comma warning
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: some of the dangers of Let me read it with
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: the approper appropriate emphasis. Warning someone of the dangers of
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: sin is called Not saying anything is called love? How
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: great is the deception? That's true. That's true. If you
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: say something to somebody like, hey, I don't think you're
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: doing that right, don't judge me, don't don't do it.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: And not saying anything and allowing somebody to continue on
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: into their destruction, that's called love. It's never been my case.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: And when we point out things on this program, it's
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: not because I want somebody to lose an election or
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: I just want our lives to go the way they're
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: supposed to. We're supposed to be self determinate, aren't we,
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: unless we've decided somewhere in a meeting I missed that.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: We don't want to be self determining anymore. We'd like
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: somebody to just organize everything for us. And I'm reminded
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: of a story historian told me about the first years
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: of the communist rule in Russia. I was told that.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, under Lenin it was almost like hate Ashbury.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: It was the summer of love in Moscow. Nobody needed
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: to do anything. Nobody. Oh, it was great. It was great.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Everyone had access to stuff and we could go where
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: we wanted. And then things started breaking and things started
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: to need to be repaired or replaced, and nobody wanted
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: to do it. And that's when Stalin comes along with
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: the programs and says, do this or you go to prison.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: And that's always the case with it. It's great fun until
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: somebody realizes, hold it, a bunch of y'all are getting
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: off on me or over on me. Can you change
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: that for the next time we use that line. And
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: that's just the way Marxism works. So if we criticize Marxism,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: it's not because we like the fact that people are
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: struggling to get by. It's there's a better answer to it.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: So our first things. On this penultimate day of twenty
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: twenty five, Iran is suffering big protests in the middle
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: of downtown Tehran as the country's currency plummeted to a
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: record low versus the US dollar. Shopkeepers rallied in Sade
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Street and downtown Tehran, as well as in the neighborhood
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: near Tehran's main Grand Bizarre These were some of the
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: same protests that led to the rise and return of
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: the Ayatola in nineteen seventy nine. President Trump warned Iran
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Monday that the US could carry out further military strikes
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: if the country attempts to reconstitute its nuclear program, as

  Speaker 1: Nyahu in Mari Lango. Saudi Arabia bombed Yemen's port city

  Speaker 1: of Mukala on Tuesday over what it described as a
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: shipment of weapons for a separatist force that had arrived

  Speaker 1: from the United Arab Emirates. The Kingdom later directly linked
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: UAE to the separatist's recent advances at Yemen and warned
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: YUAE that its actions were extremely dangerous. According to Ukrainian
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: President Vladimir Zelenski, on Monday, he said over the weekend
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: the United States offered Ukraine security guarantees for fifteen years.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: He said he would prefer an American commitment of fifty
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: years to deter Russia from further attempts to seize the
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: land in Ukraine by force. China's People's Liberation Army staged
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: a second day of large scale military drills around Taiwan
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: on on Tuesday, using a live fire show of force
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: and what it called Justice Mission. Twenty twenty five. Tragedy
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: struck the family of NASCAR driver Denny Hamlin, as his
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: parents were critically injured and his father had succumbed to

  Speaker 1: those injuries in a fire in North Carolina where they lived.

  Speaker 9: Hi, everybody, I'm Jackhanna. It's always a boy growing up
• 10:01
  Speaker 9: on a farm in Tennessee. I've been fascinated with animals.
• 10:04
  Speaker 9: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
• 10:06
  Speaker 9: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the

• 10:21

• 10:23

• 10:25
  Speaker 9: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
• 10:29
  Speaker 9: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
• 10:32
  Speaker 9: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
• 10:35
  Speaker 9: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
• 10:38
  Speaker 9: from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
• 10:41

  Speaker 14: You don't really need to find that what's going on?
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: You don't really want to know.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Jesup. So it was Jessica Tarlov and I've been through this.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: Back in twenty seventeen, I was on multiple news outlets
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: reporting David Duke's participation, if not the organization of the
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: riots in Charlottesville using USh and bought farmers, and all
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: of this information culled from intelligence briefings in Congress and
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: Congress people reporting them to me and me sharing them
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: with the listeners. And I was told by a blogger
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: that I couldn't possibly know that, and that I was
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: wrong about Charlottesville. And I said, well, what do you
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: mean I was wrong about it? He said, well, you
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: couldn't possibly Who are you. You're a nobody. I'm a
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: blogger with tens of thousands of followers at the time.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: That was a lot. I don't think that even qualifies
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: you as an influencer anymore, but it was a different world.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: And I said, and where were you on August twelfth,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, And he said, well, I'm here in Indiana,
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: where my podcasts hosted. He said, and you were watching
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: it on television? Well, I mean I saw the news
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: coverage of it. So you didn't even watch it live
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: on television, even though c SPAN and Fox both were
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: live from there. No, no I saw, I said. I said, okay,
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: I said, you know in that news coverage that you
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: you watched, was there a guy with a taller fellow
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: with a big bushy ponytail in the middle of the street,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: kind of swinging a camera around and he said yeah,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: I said, yeah, that was me, and it still is me.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: And and that's how I know better than you what
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: went on. And the same stuff is happening to Nick
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: Shirley now as people in the news media, the traditional
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: assumed to be licensed news media, if folks like the
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: President menus have their way, oh, we'll get a license
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: on these news media. People, the licensed news media or
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: the soon to be licensed appropriate news media, are railing
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: against Nick Shirley's coverage of this story, saying, how could
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: his kid possibly have skunked us on this? He didn't
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: we told you about this a week and a half ago,
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: that as this story was starting to spin out of
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: control and Nick Shirley wasn't even a thing yet, that
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: that newsrooms across Minneapolis and across Minnesota had been told
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: not to report this lest they be tagged in the
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: community as being racist, that their advertisers would be targeted
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: by activists within the Somali community, that if you were
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: to report on these missing moneies, that oh yeah, no,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: you would. You would never get another ad dollar again.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: Unless Pfiser was paying for an infomercial about how safe
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: and effective something is. You were done. Billy May's estate
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: was going to make more money in advertising than you were.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: So the newsrooms clammed up about it. But they knew
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: about it, Jessica. They they're willful co conspirators in this
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: because they didn't say, Hey, where'd all that money go?
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: You're a racist? Ilhan Omar's going to open a committee
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: hearing on you. Just laughable. Though. This is why I
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: say I would, as Groucho Marx taught us years ago,
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: I would never want to be a member of a
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: club that would have me as a member. But here
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: I am. I'm a broadcaster, just like Jessica Tarlov, at
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: least in terms of what it says on my tax return.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: Good morning, you're on the air, first thing this morning
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: with Joe. Who's this? Hey?
• 18:00
  Speaker 19: This is Moscow?
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: Bob, Hey, Bob, how are you doing?
• 18:03
  Speaker 20: So?
• 18:05
  Speaker 19: I'm doing okay. But there's so much corruption in the
• 18:08
  Speaker 19: United States with all these ethnic groups that have immigrated
• 18:13
  Speaker 19: to America illegally and all these programs, all that money
• 18:18
  Speaker 19: is being funneled back to maybe some of their candidates,
• 18:23
  Speaker 19: the Democratic Party, and yeah, sources, sources, other than.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: What the money was intended to. That's the problem. Yeah.
• 18:33
  Speaker 19: Also, you might want to check the news because there's
• 18:37
  Speaker 19: supposedly on the blogging here in Moscow that there was
• 18:41
  Speaker 19: an assassination attempt last night on the president I Putin.
• 18:47
  Speaker 14: Yes.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: Interesting, No, I did not see that on the wires yet,
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: but we'll go back.
• 18:53
  Speaker 19: That's just that that's been came in the blocks here
• 18:56
  Speaker 19: this morning. So I don't know.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's notable just because you know, Putin's usually
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: the guy who you don't want to sit down without
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: a food taste or with. But if somebody's got the
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: brass set to take an attempt on Putin's life, that
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: could be.
• 19:14
  Speaker 19: So he says, well, so they say they say it
• 19:18
  Speaker 19: was drone, so he knows if it even got close,
• 19:22
  Speaker 19: even if it got close to him, you know, his mom.
• 19:26
  Speaker 19: But the drones were that was the area they were targeting.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: All right, well, we'll dig into it. But certainly if
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: it's drones, then people, you know, are going to make
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: their extrapolations and as to where they may have flown
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: from uh there, And you know, I don't know, I
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: may be overly pedantic, but if you're in you know,
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: a state of war with somebody. And yeah, again you
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: say assassination, and I don't disagree that it certainly was
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: somebody was trying to kill him. And this because you know,
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: I was talking about this with my son the other day,
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: and we're talking about the American Army, and what makes
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: the American Army different than a lot of the other
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: European armies through the Cold War and a lot of
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: the kinetic wars, is that the Western armies, especially the
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: American Army, if you kill the leader, the army keeps marching.
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: There are an awful lot of armies of the world
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: that if you killed the general in the field, they
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: all stop. I mean, the most recent example will be
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: the Iranian Guard in Kuwait. You know, as soon as
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: we got the general, they all put their guns down
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: and said we surrender. Can we get an asylum? And
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: and so you know, that's that's a different thing. But
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: it's it's got to end soon. It's this is not
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: helping I don't think it's helping either country obviously, And
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: and that's that's the bigger problem. Is it's it's killing
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: a whole generation of Russian Russians.
• 21:08
  Speaker 19: The only one that's worth helping is the big companies,
• 21:13
  Speaker 19: so black helping companies, all these military companies and the
• 21:17
  Speaker 19: governments and the big weeks and the governments because they're
• 21:20
  Speaker 19: getting kickbacks from all the companies that are earning all
• 21:24
  Speaker 19: these massive contracts.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Now, yeah, the money we've been sending into Ukraine is
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: seriously a money laundering scheme, uh, to get you know,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: a black budget of military build out that we didn't
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: approve for in Congress. But I'm coming up on my news,
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: bob last word by Okay, well there's your last word.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: Uh there put that in the record books. The best
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: last word you'll hear is we got the news coming up.

• 22:21
  Speaker 22: you're already nervous about a health issue, which I was.
• 22:24
  Speaker 22: Members shared my expenses. There were zero problems. And let
• 22:27
  Speaker 22: me tell you, having people pray with you when you
• 22:30
  Speaker 22: call in with your need, that.
• 22:32
  Speaker 21: Is just refreshing.

  Speaker 3: Yes, that's what it is.

  Speaker 1: What I keep telling people.
• 22:36
  Speaker 21: People love meda share and they love saving money. The
• 22:39
  Speaker 21: typical family can save five hundred dollars a month.
• 22:42
  Speaker 22: I am very thankful for Meta Share. It is so different,
• 22:46
  Speaker 22: and I mean different in a very very good way.

  Speaker 7: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
• 24:12
  Speaker 7: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
• 24:18
  Speaker 7: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
• 24:22
  Speaker 7: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
• 24:26
  Speaker 7: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
• 24:31
  Speaker 7: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 24:36
  Speaker 7: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
• 24:42
  Speaker 7: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
• 24:45
  Speaker 7: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

  Speaker 19: But I'm afraid of the Russians.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: I can't sleep at night.
• 28:28
  Speaker 19: I'm so afraid of the Russians.
• 28:31
  Speaker 14: Afraid we've got fight.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: So how much airtime? So I checked. Jessica Tarlov and
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: her panelists on Fox News spent almost a half an
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: hour discussing how a guy like Nick Shirley could come
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: along and get this information, rather than actually delving in
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: for that half an hour into the corruption of it.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: Stop playing the game. Information is information? Oh sure? And
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: I won't say vet the source is. So. For example,
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: Bob in Moscow says, the scuttle butt amongst Moskovites is
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: that there was an attack on Vladimir Putin's residence and
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: I went, I dug and I found a source for it.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: Ukraine has denied the allegations made by the Russian government
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: that it launched drone strikes on one of the quote
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: official residences. Russia made the claims, saying it would revise
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: its stance on peace talks over the drone attack. Ukraine
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: calls the allegation a complete fabrication. There Russia's Foreign Minister
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: Sergei Lavrov's alleging that Ukraine fired ninety one do you
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: fire drones? I thought drones were an aircraft. See, you
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: don't fire an aircraft. You launch an aircraft and then
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: the aircraft fires, right, I mean, I want to use
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: the parlance correctly. I guess you launch a fighter jet too,
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: So I guess, yeah, the phrase would be all right,
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: But firing. You don't fire an F sixteen at somebody.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: You launch an F sixteen or six sixteen takes off
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: and flies a sortie. See that approved a whole bunch
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: of Israeli fighter jet purchases yesterday as well. Anyway, the
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: ninety one drones that were sent to Putin's official residence
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: in the Novgorode region between Moscow and Saint Petersburg. Lavrov
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: said the drones were alleged to have been launched between
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: Sunday night and Monday morning and been destroyed by their
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: air defense, and no casualties had been reported. It's not
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: clear where Putin was at the time of the alleged incident,
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: which means he was probably there, because if he wasn't there,
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: that would be the first thing that said, look at
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: how dumb the Ukrainians are. They can't even shoot at
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: the right house. Give me another cigarette, Zelenski posted to
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: social media. Russia is added again using dangerous statements to
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: undermine all the achievements of our shared diplomatic efforts with
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: President Trump's team. This alleged residence strike story is a
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: complete fabrication intended to justify additional attacks against Ukraine, which,
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: by the way, also happened during the course of the night,
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: more missile strikes and drone strikes inside and around Kiev.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: The reports from Russia that Putin called President Trump following
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: the incident and told him that Russia would revise their stance.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: I remember yesterday morning, at this point, we were telling
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: you about this two and a half an hour long
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: phone conversation that Putin had whiles Zelenski was in the room.
• 32:23
  Speaker 13: Awkward.
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: Hey, hey, Vlad, do you mind if I take this
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: on the red line here? Yeah? Yeah, no, no, he's
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: in the room with me. That's just what do you want?
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: I can only imagine how the conversation would have gone.
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: We need the Vindamin brothers to walk past a hallway
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: where some signal operator, not the app but the actual
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: posting would be on, you know, on with his girlfriend
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: telling her, oh, I heard this phone conversation between the
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: presidents of Russia and the United States in the hallway.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: I don't know what that guy had said, but I
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: heard the word bomb. Let me call. Let me call
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: MSNBC and see if I can get on the news.
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: That's how we'll find out. Where's Jessica Tarlov saying, you know,
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: where's that story Bunkum holding under power Russia's allegations, you
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: know fall, you know, twelve hours or so after the
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: end of the Sunday long meeting at merri A Lago
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: and of course Putin can't come to merri a Lago
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: because well, he'd have to fly into custody if he
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: did it. So Yuri Ushakov, presidential aid to Putin, said,
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: President Trump was shocked and literally outraged at such such
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: reckless actions. And here's where I find this story to be. Well,
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: perhaps Celensky's side of it might be the case. What
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: is the commonly held belief about Donald Trump? And this
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: has been since twenty fifteen. This has been what everyone
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: has either warned you about or tried to manipulate about
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: a Trump presidency, that he's a loose cannon, prone to
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: oh who knows god what it's like. International foreign policy
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: is written by Lewis Black. So Donald Trump is a
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: loose cannon. So Putin calls him and says, do you
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: know what they did? Don They flew drones towards my house. Sure,
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: we shot them all out of the sky and we
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: can't find any of the debris, but we you know,
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: can you believe it? I told you this guy's that
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: no good nick. It's an ancient Russian word for meaning
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: somebody who shouldn't trust. I presume the feeling is then
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump will go off and you know, I don't know,
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: pull any support from Ukraine. Stop laundering American military budget
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: money through Ukraine to get the American military more fighter
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: jets without having to go through the appropriation process, whatever
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: it may be, that they would stop doing that. Call
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: NATO say that's it. We're done with these people. And
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: a story. We didn't spend as much time on yesterday
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: morning as I kind of wanted to. It's just efforts
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: of the day. Oh, Matt writes in Tim Waltz is
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: out with OJ Simpson trying to find the real criminals.
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: See Oj missed the boat. He should have started his
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: own detective agency. I mean, now the world is full
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: of consulting detectives, right, Lucifer himself, Lucifer Morning Star. That
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: documentary on Fox of how the LAPD was using Lucifer
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: as a consulting detective what not? Oh, I'm sorry, I
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: thought that was a documentary on how the LAPD was
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: using Lucifer himself to concern Oh wow. And the the
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: OCD guy not a real copy either. Wow. But so
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: the the reaction they're trying to get is to Trump
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: immediately cut Ukraine loose, because remember, the only thing Russia
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: wants is Ukraine back, Well, maybe Belarus back. Maybe that
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: lamp and maybe that paddle game and dog poop head,
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: shift head, my dog. I just need my dog shift head,
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: Adam schiff Head. It's a reference to a movie. It's
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: Steve Martin movie for the young ones, saying what the
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: hell is he talking? Is he is this one? We
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: have to send the I, you know, the ued into
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: the studio. President Trump said, I learned about it from
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: President Putin today. I was very angry about it. Didn't say, Hey,
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: I called Zelenski to see. And that's what they're counting on.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: Is they're counting on the loose cannon in the White House,
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: or what they perceived to be the loose cannon. Doesn't
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: appear to have worked out that way. But you know,
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: stand by as this unwines. But thank you for the
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: tip on that, Bob. I appreciate it. Four three four

• 38:05
  Speaker 13: I strongly believe that no one should ever pay one
• 38:08
  Speaker 13: penny more in taxes than they are legally obligated. Unfortunately,
• 38:13
  Speaker 13: for most hard working Americans, this just isn't the case.
• 38:16
  Speaker 13: Why because most people spend more time planning next weekends
• 38:20
  Speaker 13: getaway than trying to ensure they're going to pay less
• 38:23
  Speaker 13: than taxes. My financial fitness team has put together some

  Speaker 10: if your doctor recommends lifestyle changes or medication, listen. The

  Speaker 1: Four three four eight eight two four two one seven
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: text message or you can call in their charles with
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: this question. As the media now turns on itself or
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: turns on Nick Shirley for having the temerity to do
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: their job for them, and it's a common thing, you know.
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: I don't want to give great gravity to these newspeople
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: like Jessica Tarlov that are out there tarring and feathering
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: Nick Shirley. Who is this kid? Who is? Because it's
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: a fair cop. When we played the Nick Shirley videos
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: on Friday morning and Saturday morning, yeah we've been here already.
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: I said, there's this guy and apparently his name is Chris,
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: who is one of his co conspirators in his video
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: blog that he does on YouTube, and he's done for
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: some time, and I've done this before. I recall at
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: the beginning of twenty seventeen, it might have been late
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, a friend of mine called me and said, Hey,
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: did you see this Twitter account or this website dedicated
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: to Charlottesville City councilor Wes Bellamys Twitter account. I said, no,
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: what's going on? Oh he's talking about you know, all
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: this misogyny and bad treatment of women and sexism and
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: so well, that's a bad look for a democrat.
• 46:24
  Speaker 16: Uh.
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: And I went there and I went to this Mad
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: Dimension whatever Fifth Dimension website, and I looked at it.
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: I said, wow, this this stuff number one. It's a
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: lot of retweets, So okay, still you retweeted it, And
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: I said, certainly it is. It is sexist and it's
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: you know, horrific kind of guy speak, toxic masculinity on display.
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: I'm like, who is this guy? Who is this guy?
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: Jason Kessler. I'd never heard of him, and so I
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: went looking just the way you should. You know, we
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: looked into Nick Shirley and he had been on YouTube
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: publishing stuff about Minneapolis and Minnesota news and stuff like
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: that for some time. This Mad Dimension dementia or whatever
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: that the Kessler kid was running had nothing. It went
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: from no news at all, some poetry readings various types,
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: and you know, for months and months and months nothing.
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: I mean, if he mentioned the city of Charlottesville at all,
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: it was to say, Hey, I'm having a poetry reading
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: at this coffee shop. So aside from his vogone poetry career,
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: there had been no indication that this guy had ever
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: even been interested in West Bellamy specifically or Charlottesville City Council,
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: so certainly not arguing the realities of the Twitter accounts
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: that had been screen capped and published, I said, Okay,
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna figure out who this guy is and where
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: did he get this stuff, Not because I was trying
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: to debunk the information. It seemed, you know, stereotypical of
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: a typical leftist says oh, I'm here for the women,
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: And what he meant was I'm here for the women.
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: But I also wanted to know where they were coming from,
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: because somebody sent them to this kid. And when I
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: saw David Duke walk past me August of the next summer,
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: I said, ah, little napoleonic sob dumpster arsonist. Now I
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: get you, and so it's I don't think it's unfair,
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: and I've done the same thing. Jessica Tarloff said, well,
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: what's who's this Nick Shirley guy? But it doesn't take
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: a lot to figure out that he's been doing this
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: for a while. And is it unfair to say somebody
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: whispered in his ear? As I reminded you, for weeks,
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: we had had a story out there that the newsrooms
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: as this corruption was going on. Jessica, By the way,
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: where have you been for like the better part of
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: the last month. You've been on Christmas break? This is
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: not a news story about all this money. Last week
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: we had a story about the Minneapolis or the mayors
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: of all the Minnesota cities sending a letter saying what
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: happened to the thirteen billion dollar surplus? So, Jessica, I
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: understand you're trying to say face and all that. I
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: get it. Charles writes in just curious, it looks like
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: Virginia is home to about four thousand of these Somali migrants.
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: Any indication that there is fraud similar to what's going
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: on in Minnesota, It certainly could be. But the lattice
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: work is a little bit different as the government is
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: run by a Republican in Virginia. This story from Al
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: Jazeera that Charles is basing this on says twenty one
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: thousand Somali refugees live in Ohio, fifteen thousand in Washington State,
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: four thousand in Georgia. Do they all have voting privileges?
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: Just making sure that we're all treating them fairly. I mean,
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: they're here, they're near. Get used to it. I will
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: guarantd MTU if there's any of these states that have
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: a big Somali population, California is going to be one
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: of them. California is the fraud capital of the world
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: already faster than you can say, bullet trained to nowhere.
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: But they're doing it because we hand money and look
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: the other way. We don't want to oversee. And when
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: we do try to oversee, we're called a racist, we're
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: called a nationalist colonialist. I mean, the hit parade goes
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: on and on and on of the things that they
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: will call you to stop you from scrutinizing these aid programs.
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: And the bigger question is all this money has vanished
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: gone into the Somali community somewhere. It went somewhere It
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: didn't buy clothes, it didn't buy air. Jordan's that's the
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: bigger part of the story, and Jessica. Rather than spending
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: our time as sailing Nick Shirley, maybe we should be
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: trying to figure out where the money went, you know,
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: once it was stuffed into the FedEx envelope. Is this
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: funding terrorism that is being used against our soldiers? Perhaps
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: in the field. Remember we've had American soldiers killed in theater,
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: not in Somalia per se. But did any of this
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: money wind up going into the hands of people who
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: seek to do ill to American soldiers? I'm told the
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: oversight folks Jim Jordan at al want Tim Walls and
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: Company to give testimony before Congress. Well that'll help.
• 52:51
  Speaker 4: A few years ago, my youngest son had something minor
• 52:55
  Speaker 4: turned into something very major in a matter of hours.
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: It was metice that came through force.
• 53:00
  Speaker 19: There's no hassles, there was no problem.
• 53:02
  Speaker 4: That's what's so wonderful about knowing that you're a part
• 53:05
  Speaker 4: of such an incredible ministry.
• 53:07
  Speaker 12: Meta share is a Biblical approach to healthcare where Christians
• 53:11
  Speaker 12: share each other's medical expenses.
