  Speaker 4: the songs that awaken those Apollo eleven astronauts on their
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: journey to our satellite. And I loved that song because

  Speaker 4: Walker in for Brian Thomas on this Thursday, July sixteenth,
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: twenty twenty six. And before we look at it, look
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: back at significant events and people tied to this particular
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: date in history, including but nonlimited to these. Seventeen ninety
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: the United States Congress designated the site along the Potomac
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: River as the permanent seat of our government. Our nation's
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: capital would be there. Later, of course, became Washington, DC,
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: and soon after the definition of the term swamp became
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: very very clear to all of us. More on that
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: as we continue in a moment this date. In eighteen
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: sixty two, Flag Officer David G. Farragut became the first
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: rear admiral in the US Navy that had nothing to
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: do with sexual orientation as far as we know. Nineteen
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: forty five, two notes in our history page book. This morning,
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: the US detonated the first experimental atomic bomb at the
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: Trinity Site near Alamguardo, New Mexico. The test was top secret.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: Military officials fake news issued a press release about a
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: remote ammunition dump explosion to avoid civilian panic and to
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: keep the Russians knowing from what we were doing. The
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: very same day, in nineteen forty five, the heavy cruiser
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: USS Indianapolis departed Mare Island Naval Shipyard in California on
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: a secret mission to deliver atomic bomb components to Tinian
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: in the Marianas in the Pacific nineteen fifty one, the
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: samous novel The Catcher and the Rye by J. D. Salinger,
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: first published by Little Brown and Company. And by the way, JD.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: Salinger looked nothing like James Earl Jones if you've seen
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: Field of Dreams. The State nineteen fifty seven, Marine Corps
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: Major John Glenn sena continental speed record, flying a vaut
• 4:25

• 4:40
  Speaker 4: accepted the Republican presidential nomination in San Francisco, The State
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: nineteen sixty four, declaring, Extremism in the defense of liberty
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: is no vice, and moderation in the pursuit of justice
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: is no virtue. Boy could use a Goldwater right now.
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: Maybe we've got one. Mentioned Apollo eleven's launch. This was
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: a tragic day. Another tragic day for the Kennedy family.
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: Nineteen ninety nine. John F. Kennedy Junior, not a real
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: experienced pilot, his wife Carolyn and her sister Lorne Bassett
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: died when the single engine plane that John was piloting
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: crashed into the Atlantic near Martha's vineyard. Two thousand and four,
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: Martha Stewart sentenced to five months in prison and five
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: months of home confinement for lying about a stock sale. Meanwhile,
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: Nancy Pelosi and scores of others in Congress are still
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: in office and not in prison for basically doing the
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: same things. A tragic story that wound up in an acquittal.
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: This was the day when Casey Anthony was a did
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: in Florida on charges of child neglect, making false statements,
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: and obstructing a criminal investigation in the disappearance of her
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: very young daughter twenty fifteen. It was a culmination of
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: a nationally followed case when a Colorado jerry convicted James
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: Holmes of one hundred and sixty five counts in the
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: twenty twelve Aurora movie theater Rampage. Remember this guy, this kid.
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: We dressed up like the Joker from Batman and went
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: on a killing spree and signed the theater. A flash
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: flood in Arizona's Tanto National Forest killed ten and twenty eighteen.
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: Just eight years ago, after meeting with Russian President Vladimir
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: Putin in Finland, President Donald Trump questioned his own intelligence
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: agencies finding that Russia had meddled in the twenty sixteen
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: US election. Oh yes, all of those same great full
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: of integrity intelligence officials, the same ones that signed off
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: on the Hunter Biden laptop being fake down the line,
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: many years down the line intelligence. The great Tennis International
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: Hall of Famer Margaret Court is eighty four today. Pinch
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: Us Zuckerman who's seventy eight world famous violinist and Reuben

• 7:40
  Speaker 4: Happy birthday to one and all, And by the way,
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: if it's your birthday, I trust and pray it is
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: the best day ever and you get to spend it
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: with family and friends doing the things you love to do.
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: And that's truly my wish for you. It is in
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: the middle of this bearable heat wave, well unbearable, especially
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: if you have asthma, emphysema, or already pre existing breathing conditions.
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: And we'll get the full rundown on that forecast in
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: just a moment. The village of New Richmond, well at
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: least residents there are continuing their efforts to get it
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: dissolved and to put that on the ballot in November
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: what's going on in New Richmond? Again a question I
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: could ask my wife, she went to New Richmond High School. No,
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: I know some folks from New Richmond. Maybe somebody will
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: chime in at some point this morning as to what's
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: going on? Why do you want it all to go away?
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: Not like New Richmond's going anywhere as far as I know.
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: It's five fourteen on a Thursday morning. It's a very
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: very busy day. We'll have warned Davidson later on and
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: asking about is anything happening in Congress or is it
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: just a long summer break. There's bunches going on a
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: Senate hearing on fraud yesterday while we are among others.
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: Nick Shirley testified he was in the spotlight really and
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: hopefully we'll have some highlights or excerpts of his testimony
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: about the fraud work, the Doze work that he actually
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: continued after Doze had stepped out of the limelight. For
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: the main part. People always say that Dosee, well, there
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: are some people that say that Doze was overall unsuccessful
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: in its attempt to wipe fraud from our federal and
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: state governments. What Dosee did, though, was opened the door
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: and opened people's eyes to how much of your money
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: and my money was being wasted not only in the
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: Leering Center in Minneapolis, but across the country, but most
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: severely in Democrats strongholds. It's great to be with you again,
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: and we'll see if we can put a show together.
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: You're always welcome to chime in at five point three
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: seven four nine, fifty five hundred Gary jeff In for
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: BT back in a moment on fifty five krs the
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: talk station.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Our Rheart Radio Music Festival.
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: Life, and it's great to be with you once again
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: on these airwaves. Coming up on twenty minutes past the hour.
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: So in our history notes we're talking about this was
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: the date in seventeen ninety when they designated Washington, d C.
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: To be the future home of our center seat of
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: government in this country, our nation's capital. They took a
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: swamp alongside the Potomac River and said this is the place.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: And we can debate whether that was a wise choice
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: or not. The fact is it is what it is,
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: and Washington, d C. Is still the center seat of
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: our government. The Presidency, Congress, and all of those alphabet
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: agencies and every bit of consolidated administrative state power, and
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: it's been raised by many smart people I think, and
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: I tend to agree that it's time to decentralize all
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: of that power concentrated in one place in the nation,
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: especially a leftist as the city of Washington, d c
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: is have way too much control over each and every
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: one of our lives and these agencies, I mean it's
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: been floated, not only I mean the Department of Education,
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: in the Department of Energy, many smart people agree should
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: be dissolved completely. They perform no real function for the
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: American taxpayer, and we are the ones footing the bill
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: after all. But all of these agencies, whether it be
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: the ATFE, whether it be the DEA, and you can
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: just go down the list, should maybe spread out, so
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: there's not I always thought centralized power was what they
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: did in the Soviet Union, what they do in places
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: like Cuba and communist countries. There has been a lurch
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: to the communist left, obviously in the Democrat Party and
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: among many people, many young people in this country, according
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: to Poles, believe socialism i e. Communism is the way
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: to go. Is Someone pointed out, I think on one
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: of these broadcasts when I was filling in the difference
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: between socialism and communism is about five years and they
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: are going full tilt boogie with that in the DSA
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: on their platform release this week. The elimination of the presidency,
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: the elimination of the Senate, the elimination of the Supreme Court.
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: And you say, well, Gary, Jeff, that's getting rid of
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: this concentrated power. No, it just means it'll be some
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: rubber stamp as the executive head of the Congress members
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: that they picked or the new Pullet Bureau in the
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: United States of America. This is not the USSR and
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: it is not constitutionally viable that we continue on as
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: a country, the country we were born in, the country
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: that I love to have this centralized power because of course,
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: what the youngsters and the ill informed and these people
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: who are pushing for socialism and being very blatant to say, no,
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: we're communist. Graham Plantner, who's now out of the main
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: Senate race, was an avowed communist, and many of these
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: people if you've seen any of their social media posts
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: or look at the DSA platform, that's all it is.
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: It's communism, and that is true centralized power. What the
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: founders intended and What they envisioned was less government, less
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: government control over your life, my life, everyone's lives. But
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: the more there is centralized power in one particular place,
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: with one particular group of people, it totally goes against
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: the grain of what this country's supposed to be about.
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: This republic. Now, the naming of that swamp as the
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: capital of our country on this state in seventeen ninety
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: maybe not foretelling where we're at now, but it sure
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: doesn't help get to the lesser government, less government, more
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: power to the people that the founders thought. What happened
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: that this great experiment that's now two hundred and fifty
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: years old? Food for thought, don't eat too much. Five
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: point twenty five at fifty five krc DE talk station. Hey,
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: looking for a good reputable elect four nine fifty five
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: hundred the number to get in touch on this early
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: Thursday morning. It's five twenty nine now, and I see
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: we have our old friend Tom Beck to chime in,
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: as he often does. We always appreciate all your contributions. Tom.
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: What's on your mind this morning?
• 16:32
  Speaker 8: First of all, if we can get rid of the
• 16:34
  Speaker 8: Canadian smoke and all the Canadian geese, we would be
• 16:37
  Speaker 8: much better off.
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: Well, if we can get rid of the Canadian smoke,
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: then we can enjoy all of the marijuana smoke that
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: is wafting through the state of Ohio lofting.
• 16:48
  Speaker 8: Great word, great, very short word, but I mean it
• 16:51
  Speaker 8: really tells it.
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: And you can't you can't go anywhere without the aroma
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: of ganja. Have you noticed that if you're in any
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: if you're in any major city, and not even in
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: a major city in small towns, it's just like it's everywhere.
• 17:09
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean I'm out here in Indianapolis, and uh
• 17:12
  Speaker 8: I even certain places I go, it's it's pretty obvious.
• 17:16
  Speaker 8: So you're talking about obviously, you know the nickname the
• 17:23
  Speaker 8: swamp for Washington, DC. Very afro Poe will use another,
• 17:27
  Speaker 8: We'll use another kind of big word. Yeah, very very
• 17:31
  Speaker 8: appropriate to call it that, just because you ideas get
• 17:35
  Speaker 8: in there. People get in there with all these great
• 17:38
  Speaker 8: ideas and hopes and dreams, and then it's just it's
• 17:41
  Speaker 8: a swamp. They can't move, they get stuck in the mud,
• 17:44
  Speaker 8: and it's intentional and and all this all these people
• 17:48
  Speaker 8: in there that are trying to control everything, and they,
• 17:51
  Speaker 8: I mean, good luck trying to clean that out. Really
• 17:53
  Speaker 8: I mean it, I applaud the efforts and and and
• 17:57
  Speaker 8: it's obviously a great idea, but it is it's crazy.
• 18:01
  Speaker 8: It's like it's like a single guy, well one individual,
• 18:06
  Speaker 8: go into a union meeting with ideas of trying to
• 18:09
  Speaker 8: change something in the union. Forget it, dude. You just
• 18:12
  Speaker 8: you have too much stacked against you to try to
• 18:15
  Speaker 8: make changes. And I'm not I'm not trying to say
• 18:17
  Speaker 8: there's no hope. I'm trying to say there's It needs
• 18:20
  Speaker 8: a lot more people to go into.
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: Washington, d C.
• 18:23
  Speaker 8: To make any effective change. And can't just be it
• 18:27
  Speaker 8: can't just be somebody like Trump.
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: Anytime people, anytime you have centralized power in any organization,
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: where it is where it is top down, Uh, and
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: there's a machine attached to it, like there's in Washington,
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: like there is in large unions. One voice in the wilderness,
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: no matter how earnest and no matter how loud, gets
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: lost in the din of it all. And yeah, and
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: that's that's a problem. Uh. You know, we're supposed to
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: be a republic, democratically elected to represent all of us.
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: But the problem with Washington in the swamp, the problem
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: with many unions is that the influences, the the out
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: the the voices are usually heard from other large organizations.
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: I've often said, the key to fixing our government, our
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: federal government, is to bulldoze K Street where all the
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: lobbyists are, you know. And this because they're not represent
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: The lobbyists aren't representing our individual interest. They're representing the uh,
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: the interest of in many cases, foreign countries and foreign powers.
• 19:50
  Speaker 8: They're right, whatever industry, whatever industry, the corporations. Often times
• 19:56
  Speaker 8: the corporation or the heads of those industries are in
• 19:59
  Speaker 8: other countries. But even the ones that are in the
• 20:01
  Speaker 8: United States of America, Gary, Jeff, it's all about the money.
• 20:05
  Speaker 8: It always is about everything, even for us, for the
• 20:08
  Speaker 8: ones of us that complain about the way the government's going,
• 20:11
  Speaker 8: it's about the money. I'm looking at my paycheck, I'm
• 20:13
  Speaker 8: looking about how much of it I'm able to keep.
• 20:16
  Speaker 8: I'm looking at gas prices. It's all about the money.
• 20:19
  Speaker 8: And these people do not want to give up control
• 20:21
  Speaker 8: of the money. They don't want to give up how
• 20:23
  Speaker 8: much of our money they are getting. It's a big
• 20:26
  Speaker 8: pot of money that these people are able to dip
• 20:28
  Speaker 8: their grubby pause into. And the iron not ironic, The stupid.
• 20:34
  Speaker 8: Part of it is that these people that think communism
• 20:37
  Speaker 8: is great. The only reason that it has any chance
• 20:41
  Speaker 8: of I'm not gonna say it's gonna work, but even
• 20:44
  Speaker 8: somewhat of looking like it's gonna work right now, is
• 20:46
  Speaker 8: because there's a lot of wealth in this country. You
• 20:49
  Speaker 8: let communism take over and all that goes away, and
• 20:52
  Speaker 8: you're gonna wake up one day and realize where's all
• 20:54
  Speaker 8: that money at. Well, you just spent it all, and
• 20:57
  Speaker 8: you just took away the incentive for people to make
• 21:00
  Speaker 8: more and be more wealthy. And then that's why communism
• 21:04
  Speaker 8: and socialism doesn't work well. The perfect work hard.
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: The perfect example in our lifetimes. You know, we can
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: we can talk about the USSR, we can talk about Cuba,
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: but more up to date. The perfect example of that
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: tom is the country of Venezuela. It was absolutely a
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: prosperous nation. The people there were living their best lives.
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: There was lots of money, and everyone was benefiting until
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: Hugo Chavez took control and communism took hold with the
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: the the promise of being there for the working man,
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: the same thing that the DSA is pushing right now,
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: meant that everyone suffered equally is all it meant. And
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: you're right. The money went away they were hoarding. They
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: couldn't get any kind of prescription medication that people needed.
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: They couldn't get toilet paper, for goodness sakes, because the
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: Communists took hold over once what once was an oil rich,
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: very prosperous nation in our hemisphere.
• 22:17
  Speaker 8: Yep, the socialist communism, Communists and in this country, they're
• 22:22
  Speaker 8: all under the umbrella the Democrat Party are trying to
• 22:26
  Speaker 8: ruin everything, and they have people believing that this is
• 22:30
  Speaker 8: all going to be great. We're going to make it
• 22:32
  Speaker 8: work this time. No, they're not. It's the same thing
• 22:35
  Speaker 8: over and over again. Don't vote Democrat.
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: Have a great day, all right? Tom? Thanks? He always
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: ends with that, and most of the time I agree
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: with him wholeheartedly, especially now because the Democrat Party, as
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: you may have known it, when your parents may be
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: voted for Democrats, or you may have known it earlier
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: in your life, no longer exists voices of reason, which
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: there are a few left in that political party. Uh.
• 23:06
  Speaker 4: There's a story I just read that John Fetterman, who
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: has been one of the true voices of reason when
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: it comes to illegal immigration and all of the rest
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: is in trouble. Now. As a Democrat, I say, come
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: over to our side. We need you. John five thirty
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: six at fifty five KRC, the talk station, M Champion,
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: will we crowd Ah Yes, Tick five forty at five
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: fifty KRC the talk station and Gary Jeff Walker and
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: for Brian Thomas five one, three, seven, four nine fifty
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: five hundred. These phone lines are hot like the weather
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: and Luke is hanging on to talk about socialism, communism. Luke,
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: are you a commie or not?
• 23:58
  Speaker 8: No, sir, No, sir, the red blooded American.
• 24:01
  Speaker 9: I come from the small family, from.
• 24:03
  Speaker 10: The salt of the earth.
• 24:04
  Speaker 8: I'm an industrial electrician.
• 24:06
  Speaker 9: Uh and but I am you know, a mot of
• 24:10
  Speaker 9: my man and then in my thirties and uh, you
• 24:14
  Speaker 9: know the SDA, you guys talking about lobbyists. You know
• 24:17
  Speaker 9: there's thousands of chemicals allowed. As you hear RFK talking about,
• 24:24
  Speaker 9: uh but really nothing again in.
• 24:26
  Speaker 11: The lines of way you were saying, one.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: Man, it it doesn't work.
• 24:30
  Speaker 9: And I think that's why these young guys are even
• 24:32
  Speaker 9: listening to communist And it's not that capitalism is failing
• 24:36
  Speaker 9: and it's architecture, but the fact that the sea and
• 24:42
  Speaker 9: our politician be paid off to allow chemicals that poison
• 24:45
  Speaker 9: our children, that cause unknown effects. That I think that
• 24:50
  Speaker 9: is the rug for people, is that when money can
• 24:53
  Speaker 9: influence enough to be able to go down a candy
• 24:56
  Speaker 9: isle or an isle in your store, and a whole
• 24:58
  Speaker 9: aisle is essentially poisonous for your family, I think, I think,
• 25:02
  Speaker 9: and it's they're frustration is misunderstood and that communism looks
• 25:06
  Speaker 9: like some happy dance that ain't gonna work. But if
• 25:08
  Speaker 9: we could stand up and make these corporations not be
• 25:11
  Speaker 9: so greeded that they're willing to poison its own population,
• 25:13
  Speaker 9: and then the big farmer gets gets a shake out
• 25:16
  Speaker 9: it too, and they gotta treat you. I think all
• 25:18
  Speaker 9: of them are big buddies up there, and we're kind
• 25:20
  Speaker 9: of not.
• 25:20
  Speaker 8: We're getting a short end of the stick.
• 25:22
  Speaker 9: I think that's why young men are even listening to that,
• 25:24
  Speaker 9: to that communism argument.
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: Well, uh luke and I have this, uh. I think
• 25:32
  Speaker 4: it's a proven idiom that whichever way, if you look
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: at most of the social media where the big push
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: for the DSA and communism is in this country right now,
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: it is young, but it is also mainly women. It's
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: mainly women, and you know what happens. You know why
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: bars have ladies nights, or used to have ladies knights,
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: so they could attract. If they get the ladies in there,
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: they'll get the men in there to spend the money.
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: And if you get young women pushing these awful ideas
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: like communism and socialism for the United States of America,
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: the young men will follow blindly. Oh that's where the
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: girls are man's You know. My perfect illustration of that
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: is that you remember Colin Kaepernick and the controversy around
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: him kneeling for the national anthem and basically being kicked
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: out of the NFL. Colin Kaepernick wasn't like that until
• 26:42
  Speaker 4: he started dating a socialist at cal Berkeley. He started
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: dating a socialist Muslim who was the daughter of a professor,
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: a socialist professor leave cal Berkeley, and that's when the
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: kneeling started. And that's where the conversion to socialist, communist
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: ideas and the hatred of America started with Colin Kaepernick
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: to the point where he thought we were an oppressive, evil,
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: racist country and he started kneeling for the national anthem.
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: It was the end of his career, but it was
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: all chasing after a skirt. Sorry about the sexist tilt
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: to that, but I'm serious. You want to know which
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: way the young men are going, and all you got
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: to do not follow the money, but follow the women.
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: And in social media post after social media post after
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: social media post, most of these people who were preaching
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: communism are young women, over educated, over indoctrinated women. And
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: they're young, and they've got college degrees that are basically worthless,
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: and they can't get employed anywhere, so they think that
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: the rest of us, who work our butts off, owe
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: them something. Five point forty five. Jay, stay on the line.
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: We'll talk to you in a moment. Linda also chiming in.
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: When we come back on this Thursday morning on fifty
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: five KRC, the talk station.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: This summer on iHeartRadio, we'll win a trip to seat station.
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: Phone's busy this morning early on. Thank you for making
• 28:35
  Speaker 4: my job easier by participating, and Jay's there to participate
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: as well. Now, Jay, I want to ask you before
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: you unload all of this wonderful information you're about to
• 28:46
  Speaker 4: impart on us. I want to ask you when you
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: were young, and I don't know how old you are,
• 28:52
  Speaker 4: but when you were young, were a lot of the
• 28:55
  Speaker 4: decisions you made, and sometimes important decisions dictated by say
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: what a woman in your life, for someone you were
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: interested in, would steer you to.
• 29:11
  Speaker 8: Wow?
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: Because I really oh, well, no, I was talking to Joe,
• 29:16
  Speaker 4: and I know for me personally, I did a lot
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: of stupid things just to impress or influence women when
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: I was young. And these young men, I think are
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: more swayed by what their college educated young women are
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: saying on lines only only to look impressive and to
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: get attention from the Hey, pay attention to me. Oh,
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: I agree with everything you're saying, honey. Now as you
• 29:47
  Speaker 4: get older, that kind of goes away. But anyway, what
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: did you have for us, Jay?
• 29:53
  Speaker 7: What did to comment about communism on the march and
• 29:58
  Speaker 7: point out that we've got to have our.
• 30:00
  Speaker 10: Eyes wide open. And it isn't just the Democrat Party.
• 30:03
  Speaker 7: We have a lot of Republicans right now who think
• 30:06
  Speaker 7: that the solution to communism is communism.
• 30:10
  Speaker 10: And here's quick, quick examples.
• 30:13
  Speaker 7: We have Bernie Marino, who completely surrendered conservative principles, walked
• 30:18
  Speaker 7: across the aisle and partnered up with the absolute worst person,
• 30:24
  Speaker 7: Elizabeth Warren, and his solution to fix social security is
• 30:29
  Speaker 7: let's grow and make it bigger and take the cap
• 30:33
  Speaker 7: away and collect more money so from all of us
• 30:39
  Speaker 7: because we haven't spent enough.
• 30:40
  Speaker 10: Now, some people say, yeah, but that's a good program.
• 30:42
  Speaker 7: Is it a good program? Because when you do the
• 30:45
  Speaker 7: math at the end of our lives, if we would
• 30:48
  Speaker 7: have been able to invest that into a let's call
• 30:51
  Speaker 7: it a conservative mutual funder bonds, that's two million dollars
• 30:56
  Speaker 7: that everybody lost that could have been invested. And then
• 30:59
  Speaker 7: other peop people say yeah, But the reality is people
• 31:02
  Speaker 7: wouldn't do that, don't They have the right not to
• 31:04
  Speaker 7: do it. Social has the freedom in this country to
• 31:08
  Speaker 7: do it or not to do it. But to look
• 31:10
  Speaker 7: at government to be the funder of my retirement taking
• 31:13
  Speaker 7: away what could have been two million dollars in giving
• 31:16
  Speaker 7: me back crumbs is not a good program. And it
• 31:19
  Speaker 7: was born out of communism, born out of FDR New Deal.
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: Absolutely, And here's the problem, Jay, we're so far down
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: the road with this communist idea of social security. And
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: you're right, it is absolutely common. It is evil in
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: every respect. But it's been going on now for ninety
• 31:40
  Speaker 4: years and there are people who have paid into it.
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: What do we do with the people who rely on
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: that for the income because they were told this is
• 31:49
  Speaker 4: their social safety net and they paid into it their
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: entire lives. You're just going to yank it away, You're
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: going to totally scrap social Security. How do we fix
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: it now? That I think? I think the the effort
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: politically is, you know, it's such a hot potato because
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: if they don't do something to make it solvent, they'll
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: be out of office and out of power. And of
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: course that's all they're thinking about when it comes to fixes,
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: whether it's lifting the cap on income, whether it is,
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: you know, whatever they're they're trying to do to fix it.
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: You're right, it should be it should be scrapped completely.
• 32:30
  Speaker 4: But there is a whole There are a whole couple
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: of generations of people now who are relying upon it,
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: and they paid into it because of the coercion of
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: the program itself.
• 32:40
  Speaker 7: Yeah, well, every once in a while there has to
• 32:42
  Speaker 7: be a generation that steps up, like the greatest generation
• 32:45
  Speaker 7: that went through World War two and the Depression. But
• 32:48
  Speaker 7: here's where I would start, and what I've been begging
• 32:50
  Speaker 7: for my whole life.
• 32:51
  Speaker 10: Is allow me to opt out.
• 32:53
  Speaker 7: Oh yeah, if I could and you know what, I'm
• 32:56
  Speaker 7: fifty four years old, and I would still probably opt
• 32:58
  Speaker 7: out keep everything that you've taken thus far. I'm going
• 33:02
  Speaker 7: to sign the dot in line. You give me nothing,
• 33:04
  Speaker 7: you quit taking, but you give people that are twenty
• 33:07
  Speaker 7: two to twenty, you know, for eighteen on the ability
• 33:10
  Speaker 7: to opt out.
• 33:12
  Speaker 10: That thing will dry up.
• 33:13
  Speaker 7: And honestly, the people that did not plan for their future,
• 33:17
  Speaker 7: I hate to say it. You took the deal with
• 33:20
  Speaker 7: a communist idea from a communist in the White House,
• 33:22
  Speaker 7: which is sdr.
• 33:23
  Speaker 10: This thing has way.
• 33:25
  Speaker 7: Outlived its Ponzi scheme. And there we have on the
• 33:29
  Speaker 7: Republican side, I'll say it again, Bernie Marino walking across
• 33:33
  Speaker 7: the aisle partnering up with Elizabeth Warren. And do you
• 33:35
  Speaker 7: think that ten people have ever called him on our
• 33:38
  Speaker 7: side the race?
• 33:39
  Speaker 10: Hell about that? I doubt it.
• 33:41
  Speaker 7: I really doubt it that he got that same thing
• 33:44
  Speaker 7: with Tom Zawistowski told us about Rob McCollough, President of
• 33:48
  Speaker 7: the Senate, Matt Hoffman, Speaker of the House, blocking his
• 33:51
  Speaker 7: idea of four billion dollars of what they call the
• 33:54
  Speaker 7: Rainy Day Fund. I call it legalized theft. It's money
• 33:57
  Speaker 7: that was taken in above their budget. Their budgets are prooved,
• 34:00
  Speaker 7: he says, can we get that back in gas tax relief?
• 34:05
  Speaker 8: They're blocking the bill.
• 34:06
  Speaker 7: They won't even allow it to go to the floor
• 34:08
  Speaker 7: where our elected representatives could vote on it.
• 34:11
  Speaker 10: And so there's communism.
• 34:14
  Speaker 7: Grow the size of government, grow the spending, grow the budget,
• 34:17
  Speaker 7: grow everything, and block any idea that would send any
• 34:20
  Speaker 7: of our money that they sold.
• 34:23
  Speaker 10: Back to the people.
• 34:24
  Speaker 7: That Randy day Fon just keeps growing and growing and growing.
• 34:28
  Speaker 7: What does it mean whenever they keep everything that they
• 34:30
  Speaker 7: collect regardless of what their budget is. So we've got
• 34:34
  Speaker 7: Rob McCall and Mapoffman, Bertie Marino, all of those are
• 34:38
  Speaker 7: in Ohio Republicans that are acting like good communists.
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: Well, I can't disagree with anything you just said. And
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: as far as so security being a Ponzi scheme, I've
• 34:50
  Speaker 4: thought that, and I wish, you know what. I wish
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: they'd just give me back everything I paid into it.
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: But that's never going to happen. Jay, Thank you very much.
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: Gotta break. It's five fifty six at fifty five krs
• 35:03

  Speaker 3: All ears right here, we need to wake up. On

  Speaker 3: fifty five KRS the Talk Station, All.
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: Right, speeding down the highway into a brand new day
• 35:27
  Speaker 4: on six minutes past the hour on this Thursday Morning
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: show on fifty five KRC the Talk Station, Gary Jeff
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: Walker and for Brian Thomas, five on three seven fifty
• 35:37
  Speaker 4: five hundred. Phone's been kind of hopping this morning, and
• 35:41
  Speaker 4: Linda was nice enough to be patient to wait till now. Linda,
• 35:46
  Speaker 4: the floor is yours, speak your.
• 35:48
  Speaker 12: Mind, Thank you, Good morning, Good morning. I'm afraid Jay
• 35:53
  Speaker 12: took a lot of the thoughts that I have and
• 35:56
  Speaker 12: already put them out there. But thing that I'm eighty two,
• 36:02
  Speaker 12: and I grew up in an era where it was family,
• 36:07
  Speaker 12: it was fun, and we didn't have all the I
• 36:13
  Speaker 12: didn't have. I could climb a tree without a helmet,
• 36:16
  Speaker 12: you know. And I've slowly watched regulations change how children
• 36:23
  Speaker 12: are raised. Then I've also seen the change in the
• 36:28
  Speaker 12: parents in what they think is important. But I told
• 36:32
  Speaker 12: from my husband the biggest thing that bothers me is
• 36:38
  Speaker 12: that communism have been here for a long time, you know,
• 36:42
  Speaker 12: after the War a lot of the Nazis came over here,
• 36:46
  Speaker 12: a lot of them began their own movement here, and
• 36:51
  Speaker 12: people laughed and said, oh, you know, what difference does
• 36:53
  Speaker 12: this make? You know, let them live, you know, nothing's
• 36:56
  Speaker 12: going to happen. Well, now we're watching them take over
• 37:00
  Speaker 12: the media, that the teachers. How many of those are communists?
• 37:06
  Speaker 12: How many? And we don't like to use that word communists,
• 37:09
  Speaker 12: but they're not democratic socialists. They're communists, sure there. How
• 37:14
  Speaker 12: many are in the Republican Party, our government, in our
• 37:20
  Speaker 12: local governments. This is a movement that has slowly, slowly,
• 37:25
  Speaker 12: slowly eked its way into the United States, and we
• 37:29
  Speaker 12: now are being threatened with gosh, we might lose our constitution,
• 37:34
  Speaker 12: we might lose the Senate, we might lose.
• 37:36
  Speaker 4: The President's Court, the Supreme Court. Yeah, yell.
• 37:40
  Speaker 12: And what scares me, and I'll make it real short,
• 37:44
  Speaker 12: what scares me is that when you have a local election,
• 37:50
  Speaker 12: you know, get thirteen percent of the people voted.
• 37:52
  Speaker 13: Yeah, this is voted.
• 37:56
  Speaker 4: This is one of my big pat peeves, Linda, is
• 37:59
  Speaker 4: the lack of participation by people whose lives are going
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: to be drastically changed or ruined, our way of life
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: being ruined because people will not participate in the process
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: by voting and letting their voices be heard. You know,
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: it's not like we weren't warned. Khrushchev when he was
• 38:23
  Speaker 4: Premier of the Soviet Union stated very very clearly, he said,
• 38:29
  Speaker 4: we will take We will take over without firing a shot,
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: and they communism it's insidious. It infiltrates every facet of life,
• 38:40
  Speaker 4: not just government. There is incursion into our churches. There
• 38:46
  Speaker 4: is incursion obviously in education through the teachers' unions. In
• 38:51
  Speaker 4: our media obviously, I mean it's blatant in our in
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: most of mainstream media, not here, but you know, in
• 39:01
  Speaker 4: the in the loudest and most prominent voices in our media,
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: communism is seen as something that's you know, novel and
• 39:12
  Speaker 4: something that can maybe fix all the problems there are
• 39:16
  Speaker 4: with capitalism and free markets. If we had actual free
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: markets in this country, communism wouldn't even be talked about.
• 39:25
  Speaker 4: Because free market enterprise and what people call capitalism true
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: not crony capitalism that favors major corporations but is fair
• 39:38
  Speaker 4: to all is has lifted more people out of poverty
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: than any other system of government worldwide. Man system of government.
• 39:48
  Speaker 14: So.
• 39:49
  Speaker 4: But but Khrushchef, when he was banging his shoe on
• 39:52
  Speaker 4: that podium, said we will take over without firing a shot.
• 39:57
  Speaker 4: So and that was. That was sixty five, sixty six
• 40:00
  Speaker 4: years ago, Linda. It's not like we weren't worn, but
• 40:03
  Speaker 4: no one paid attention or gave proper and you know
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: what else, Linda, since you're old enough to remember Senator
• 40:11
  Speaker 4: McCarthy and what was called the Communist witch hunt, you
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: probably remember that absolutely back in the nineteen fifties. He
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: was right, and he was vilified by the Communists who
• 40:25
  Speaker 4: were already in the government and in media, in the
• 40:29
  Speaker 4: film industry, and they'd already started their march. This has
• 40:33
  Speaker 4: been a long time coming, and nobody has paid proper
• 40:38
  Speaker 4: attention to it.
• 40:39
  Speaker 12: I agree with you, well, people still aren't paying attention.
• 40:44
  Speaker 12: People are more worried about whether they have a concert center.
• 40:48
  Speaker 12: People today, I feel, are more worried about going to
• 40:53
  Speaker 12: work and doing what they have to do. Because I've
• 40:55
  Speaker 12: been there, We raised four kids and we put them
• 40:58
  Speaker 12: through college during those years, I was not a tenant
• 41:02
  Speaker 12: for what was going on. So I don't blame the people,
• 41:09
  Speaker 12: but I do think that they're not taking this serious.
• 41:13
  Speaker 12: They think, oh, well, it's just a bunch of screaming women.
• 41:16
  Speaker 12: Well it is, it is, And I say, what the
• 41:19
  Speaker 12: heck is the matter with these women. Nobody leaves this
• 41:25
  Speaker 12: country to run to China. Nobody's oh god, I got
• 41:29
  Speaker 12: to go with the yard in Russia. Russians wanted, let
• 41:34
  Speaker 12: me hear. Nobody moves to Mexico with the old people
• 41:39
  Speaker 12: who don't know better that their medical is going to
• 41:41
  Speaker 12: be screwed up. People are paying to get into this
• 41:47
  Speaker 12: country and we're willing to throw it away. And that's
• 41:50
  Speaker 12: worth and it all starts at the local level. And
• 41:56
  Speaker 12: nobody listens. So and I had to.
• 41:59
  Speaker 4: Say, you had a lot to you had a lot
• 42:02
  Speaker 4: to say and a lot to add. Jay didn't steal
• 42:06
  Speaker 4: your thunder at all. You brought your own, and I
• 42:08
  Speaker 4: appreciate it. Thanks for listening. Linda, thank you so much.
• 42:13
  Speaker 4: She's not quite as old, but boy, she reminded me
• 42:17
  Speaker 4: of my mom. My mom's eighty eight and has some
• 42:23
  Speaker 4: of the same sentences, sentiments and raised four boys and
• 42:28
  Speaker 4: they did a fantastic job. Us boys on our follow
• 42:32
  Speaker 4: through maybe not so much, but we're working on it.
• 42:36
  Speaker 4: At six thirteen, Bobby, thanks for being a part of
• 42:40
  Speaker 4: the show this morning, what's on your mind?
• 42:42
  Speaker 13: Good morning, my friend faiths Flag family in today's handicamp
• 42:47
  Speaker 13: Thursday of the violence in Cincinnati. Amen, we put it
• 42:53
  Speaker 13: at seven this weekend. It's awful hot outside, keeps some
• 42:56
  Speaker 13: of the thugs in, but we put it at seven,
• 43:00
  Speaker 13: and any street takeovers are two.
• 43:04
  Speaker 4: I would agree with that. I would agree with that.
• 43:07
  Speaker 4: So any thoughts on this communist incursion that's now rearing
• 43:12
  Speaker 4: its ugly head. They hid amongst us for years and now,
• 43:20
  Speaker 4: and you know what, the violence you're talking about in Cincinnati,
• 43:24
  Speaker 4: it's all part of it.
• 43:27
  Speaker 13: It's all part of all part of it, my friend, Yeah,
• 43:29
  Speaker 13: it's all part of it. We're in the midst of
• 43:31
  Speaker 13: a cultural revolution. People need to pay attention. I tell
• 43:34
  Speaker 13: you why. It's so funny to see these communists and
• 43:38
  Speaker 13: these women especially that are left wingers. I went to
• 43:41
  Speaker 13: a holiday event last Thanksgiving and with a lady friend
• 43:45
  Speaker 13: and always like to bring something, you know when you
• 43:47
  Speaker 13: go to again. Sure, I brought a bottle of Trump
• 43:50
  Speaker 13: wine and paper cups. I tell you what. It was
• 43:53
  Speaker 13: the best thing in the world for people because you
• 43:56
  Speaker 13: could see exactly where they were on their political side.
• 44:01
  Speaker 4: It really doesn't matter what's on the label, does it.
• 44:04
  Speaker 13: It's good warin, but I've b pay for cuts also
• 44:08
  Speaker 13: since we were degenerous, say that way everybody could feel comfortable.
• 44:14
  Speaker 4: Oh gosh, there you go. Well, Bobby, I think you're
• 44:17
  Speaker 4: a wonderful, deplorable.
• 44:19
  Speaker 13: Thank you, my brother.
• 44:20
  Speaker 4: I appreciate that's not all right? Five one, three, seven, four,
• 44:24
  Speaker 4: nine fifty five hundred. Will continue our conversation when we
• 44:29
  Speaker 4: continue after the break. It's six fifteen. Good morning, his
• 44:33
  Speaker 4: Ryan Thomas here was t from USA and slash musty.
• 44:39
  Speaker 4: Good morning, My pleasure to be with you, Gary jeff
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: In for Brian on this Thursday, July sixteenth, and more
• 44:49
  Speaker 4: phone calls. Why the heck not? You don't have to
• 44:52
  Speaker 4: hear me drone on all morning. I'll let you drone
• 44:54
  Speaker 4: on Tom on the subject of property taxes. What's on
• 44:58
  Speaker 4: your mind, my friend.
• 45:00
  Speaker 15: Born in Gary Jeff, Well, it's a chance for everybody
• 45:03
  Speaker 15: in the state of Ohio to take back some of
• 45:05
  Speaker 15: their power by if you're out in one of these
• 45:08
  Speaker 15: festivals or county fairs this summer, look around. See if
• 45:12
  Speaker 15: there's a table set up for the property tax reform
• 45:16
  Speaker 15: bill assigned to get that on the petition for next
• 45:18
  Speaker 15: year's voting. And if you can't find one at one
• 45:22
  Speaker 15: of those places, you get online and just scroll for
• 45:25
  Speaker 15: a property tax reform or something like just reducing property
• 45:32
  Speaker 15: taxes in the state of Ohio. And I think we
• 45:35
  Speaker 15: need to keep that on the subject every week. We
• 45:38
  Speaker 15: got to keep mentioning this. We'll gay back property taxes.
• 45:42
  Speaker 4: Absolutely. You said, you said on on the ballot for
• 45:45
  Speaker 4: next year. You mean this year November, don't you.
• 45:48
  Speaker 15: No, it's gonna it didn't get enough votes this year,
• 45:51
  Speaker 15: so it's gonna be on seven.
• 45:53
  Speaker 4: Wow. Yeah, that's that's a shame. And and these property
• 45:58
  Speaker 4: evaluations that are done are just they are outrageous. And
• 46:07
  Speaker 4: the whole idea of see, this is a thing I
• 46:10
  Speaker 4: always thought. I've never owned my own home, Okay tom
• 46:15
  Speaker 4: so to speak, but I thought, when you paid your
• 46:18
  Speaker 4: home off, you own your own home. As long as
• 46:21
  Speaker 4: there are these just unbelievable, ludicrous property taxes being assessed,
• 46:27
  Speaker 4: you don't own your own home, you don't pay the taxes,
• 46:30
  Speaker 4: they can take your home away. But what if you
• 46:33
  Speaker 4: paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to pay off your
• 46:37
  Speaker 4: home and they keep on jacking the property taxes, not
• 46:42
  Speaker 4: just the taxes, but the evaluations on your home, whether
• 46:46
  Speaker 4: it's fair or not. You don't really own anything if
• 46:51
  Speaker 4: they can assess a property tax and take it away.
• 46:53
  Speaker 4: Is that correct?
• 46:55
  Speaker 15: Yeah, that's right. And I can't believe in Kentucky, where
• 46:58
  Speaker 15: you live, has he got one of these things started,
• 47:00
  Speaker 15: because oh the same things apply to you guys.
• 47:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I live in I live in Campbell County and
• 47:06
  Speaker 4: the person who ran the PVA, who assesses those property taxes,
• 47:14
  Speaker 4: I think is still in jail. I'm not sure, but
• 47:17
  Speaker 4: that didn't stop the property taxes. He wasn't in jail
• 47:20
  Speaker 4: for that, but maybe he should have been. Uh, it
• 47:23
  Speaker 4: is important. And uh, I mean, is there any centralized location.
• 47:28
  Speaker 4: You're talking about fairs and festivals where there may be petitions,
• 47:32
  Speaker 4: but is there any other centralized point where people can
• 47:35
  Speaker 4: pick up petitions and and maybe get their neighbors to
• 47:39
  Speaker 4: sign them.
• 47:40
  Speaker 15: I've seen some of the ups officers, and I was
• 47:44
  Speaker 15: at the Montgomery County Fairy yesterday and they had a
• 47:47
  Speaker 15: table set up there where people can sign. Okay, and
• 47:51
  Speaker 15: I think Warren County is going to have one coming
• 47:53
  Speaker 15: up here. And they're just all over the place. You
• 47:57
  Speaker 15: just have to look around for them and stop eating
• 48:01
  Speaker 15: all that cotton canyon for these petitions instead.
• 48:05
  Speaker 4: There was a story yesterday locally about I don't know
• 48:10
  Speaker 4: if it was Cincinnati or who it was, asking for
• 48:13
  Speaker 4: a five point seven to five mil increase in property
• 48:18
  Speaker 4: tax Joe was that here? Do you remember Hamilton County? Yeah,
• 48:24
  Speaker 4: asking for an additional five point seventy five mil increase
• 48:27
  Speaker 4: in property taxes for something or another. And I can't
• 48:35
  Speaker 4: even remember what the mission was that they were trying to.
• 48:39
  Speaker 4: They were trying to achieve money social services or something,
• 48:45
  Speaker 4: children's services. Okay, there you go. I was real hazy
• 48:49
  Speaker 4: on it. I don't live in Hamilton County, but obviously
• 48:52
  Speaker 4: i'm working here in Hamilton County, so I should know
• 48:54
  Speaker 4: more about that. But if it doesn't pass, if we
• 49:00
  Speaker 4: don't get the extra increase, the extra levey on property taxes,
• 49:05
  Speaker 4: well they'll have to cut services. You notice this, And
• 49:12
  Speaker 4: it's like the federal government shutdown. They cut off the money,
• 49:21
  Speaker 4: and they cut off things that directly benefit taxpayers. But
• 49:26
  Speaker 4: Congress never takes a haircut when the government shut down,
• 49:30
  Speaker 4: they still get paid. I guess that's by law. Administrators
• 49:38
  Speaker 4: never suffer under the knife. It's always the people directly say,
• 49:43
  Speaker 4: it's the coercion they use to get us agree to
• 49:48
  Speaker 4: agree to take more of our money. More coercive theft
• 49:53
  Speaker 4: is what it is on the and they hold us hostage.
• 49:58
  Speaker 4: The people who are dismanaged, mismanaging the money, and with
• 50:02
  Speaker 4: the fraud that's going on in this country and in
• 50:05
  Speaker 4: these states, it is total mismanagement. It's malfeasance. It's theft
• 50:12
  Speaker 4: of public funds to shysters and fraudsters. And those fraudsters
• 50:20
  Speaker 4: and shysters are giving kickbacks in many cases to the
• 50:25
  Speaker 4: politicians or their campaign funds. That happened in Minnesota with
• 50:28
  Speaker 4: the Attorney General Keith Allison. That's the alleged uh, the
• 50:34
  Speaker 4: alleged charge anyway there, and the money just kicks back
• 50:41
  Speaker 4: to the people who were making the decisions, the elected
• 50:43
  Speaker 4: officials who were supposed to be representing you. It's crazy
• 50:51
  Speaker 4: if you ever have a chance to vote for a
• 50:53
  Speaker 4: property tax. My old friend Darryl Parks used to say,
• 50:57
  Speaker 4: if you vote for a school levey, you're stupid because
• 51:01
  Speaker 4: they're mismanaging the money you've already given them. So what
• 51:09
  Speaker 4: do you do save A friend borrowed one hundred dollars
• 51:14
  Speaker 4: and they went to the casino and just they bought
• 51:17
  Speaker 4: it on the auspices of they need groceries, or they
• 51:20
  Speaker 4: need a car repair, or they need rent. They borrow
• 51:24
  Speaker 4: a hundred dollars and they go and just fritter it away,
• 51:27
  Speaker 4: and they come back they haven't repaid it. They come
• 51:30
  Speaker 4: back the next day and they need to borrow one
• 51:32
  Speaker 4: hundred dollars again. It's the same thing with these levees
• 51:38
  Speaker 4: and property taxes. They've mismaged, mismanaged the money you've already
• 51:43
  Speaker 4: given them in taxes and fees, so they're always asking
• 51:47
  Speaker 4: for more. I mean, it's the same thing as supporting
• 51:56
  Speaker 4: a junkie with a bad habit. Sooner or later you're
• 52:00
  Speaker 4: going to run out of money or run out of
• 52:01
  Speaker 4: patience and you're not going to give them anymore. If
• 52:07
  Speaker 4: the government is us, well, then we need to quit
• 52:12
  Speaker 4: stealing our own money. I guess if that makes sense.
• 52:17
  Speaker 4: Doesn't seem to, but it's it's a really, really wild
• 52:22
  Speaker 4: circle of theft, malfeasance, mismanagement, and we're all paying for it,
• 52:31
  Speaker 4: and by god, we shouldn't. Six twenty seven and fifty
• 52:34
  Speaker 4: five KRCV talk station and routis when I lost my mom.
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: She was aation.
• 52:42
  Speaker 4: It's six point thirty one, good morning. This is probably
• 52:49
  Speaker 4: one of the tougher issues for me to tackle, just internally,
• 52:56
  Speaker 4: to legalize marijuana some backround. I was almost a full
• 53:04
  Speaker 4: time marijuana smoker back in my twenties and thirties, long
• 53:12
  Speaker 4: time ago, until I just got tired of feeling out
• 53:18
  Speaker 4: of it all the time. So I have, from the
• 53:23
  Speaker 4: perspective of someone who used to smoke marijuana on a regular,
• 53:29
  Speaker 4: semi regular basis, why would I restrict someone else, an adult,
• 53:36
  Speaker 4: from wanting to do the same thing. And that's a
• 53:40
  Speaker 4: more libertarian kind of view. However, there's plenty of research
• 53:49
  Speaker 4: that has suggested and this is it was always talked
• 53:55
  Speaker 4: about before, but they the more marijuana laws have relaxed
• 54:01
  Speaker 4: in this country and in Ohio, they've had a lot
• 54:06
  Speaker 4: more time to do a lot more research on the
• 54:10
  Speaker 4: possibilities of marijuana induced schizophrenia obvious retardation not from the
• 54:22
  Speaker 4: standpoint but the actual limited brain capacity and a forming
• 54:29
  Speaker 4: brain of a young person, the retardation of their development
• 54:36
  Speaker 4: because of marijuana use. Children's Hospital of the Ohio Poison
• 54:42
  Speaker 4: centered data have established some correlation between increased access to
• 54:47
  Speaker 4: edibles with an increased in intentional and unintentional exposures to
• 54:52
  Speaker 4: youth of THC and again for a forming brain, that's
• 54:56
  Speaker 4: not a good thing. In Hamilton City, the council voted
• 55:05
  Speaker 4: yesterday to lift the ban on marijuana dispensaries. Of course,
• 55:08
  Speaker 4: marijuana has been legal. Recreational marijuana has been legal, as
• 55:11
  Speaker 4: you know in Ohio for a while now. The vote
• 55:15
  Speaker 4: was four to three on Tuesday to approve zoning changes
• 55:18
  Speaker 4: that allow marijuana dispensaries to operate in the City of
• 55:21
  Speaker 4: Hamilton for the very first time, after years of debate
• 55:26
  Speaker 4: and a ban that dated to win Ohio voters legalized
• 55:30
  Speaker 4: adult use cannabis three years ago. There were two ordinances
• 55:35
  Speaker 4: before the council, the first ending the city's moratorium on
• 55:39
  Speaker 4: dispensary businesses, the second establishing rules governing where dispensaries can
• 55:44
  Speaker 4: operate in how they must function. Under the new zoning rules,
• 55:49
  Speaker 4: dispensaries will not be permitted in Hamilton's Historic district. And
• 55:55
  Speaker 4: I'm just an aside on that. I found that kind
• 55:59
  Speaker 4: of comical in that our founding fathers, including George Washington,
• 56:08
  Speaker 4: was the colony's biggest hemp grower at the time, which
• 56:12
  Speaker 4: of course is which of course is part of the
• 56:18
  Speaker 4: marijuana family or marijuana's part of the hemp family, and
• 56:22
  Speaker 4: must be located at least one thousand feet from schools
• 56:25
  Speaker 4: and childcare facilities. Cannabis businesses will also be required to
• 56:28
  Speaker 4: complete Hamilton's conditional use process before opening, whatever that is.
• 56:34
  Speaker 4: Supporters pointed to the tax revenue the city will get
• 56:40
  Speaker 4: with the band lifted a quote from one resident there
• 56:45
  Speaker 4: who was in favor of this. At what other industry
• 56:48
  Speaker 4: is it in which the state gives you thirty six
• 56:50
  Speaker 4: percent of a ten percent excise tax merely for allowing
• 56:54
  Speaker 4: someone to open up a business. We don't have to
• 56:57
  Speaker 4: open up the business ourselves. We just have to let
• 56:59
  Speaker 4: somebody out to it. That's an incredible rate of return
• 57:02
  Speaker 4: on investment. A council member voted against the ordinance. Like
• 57:09
  Speaker 4: I said, it was a four to three vote. It
• 57:12
  Speaker 4: was a tight vote, citing a personal loss of his daughter.
• 57:19
  Speaker 4: My daughter Mallory was hit and killed by a man
• 57:21
  Speaker 4: high on marijuana, high on six other drugs. I appreciate
• 57:25
  Speaker 4: the sentiment, I appreciate the work. I appreciate the perspective
• 57:28
  Speaker 4: that everyone has voted for. I did not vote for it.
• 57:31
  Speaker 4: This is the most difficult legislation that I've had to
• 57:33
  Speaker 4: deal with personally, and again it's tough for me. I
• 57:38
  Speaker 4: don't want to sound hypocritical. I mean, I'm no longer
• 57:41
  Speaker 4: using marijuana, but I did for many years and I
• 57:46
  Speaker 4: don't know that it adversely affected my life, But like
• 57:50
  Speaker 4: I said, I was tired of being a zombie all
• 57:52
  Speaker 4: the time. The mayor of Hamilton also voted no, citing
• 57:57
  Speaker 4: concerns about the effect of increased retail marijuana on access
• 58:00
  Speaker 4: to young people. Prohibition didn't work in the nineteen twenties
• 58:05
  Speaker 4: with alcohol, and I'd say largely it hasn't worked with
• 58:11
  Speaker 4: marijuana in this country since marijuana's federal ban in nineteen
• 58:18
  Speaker 4: thirty three in the United States. I've always found it
• 58:22
  Speaker 4: quite odd that marijuana was legal in this country until
• 58:27
  Speaker 4: nineteen thirty three, the same year that prohibition on alcohol
• 58:31
  Speaker 4: was lifted. One of those things that make you go hmm.
• 58:37
  Speaker 4: Was there possibly pressure from the alcohol lobby when they
• 58:42
  Speaker 4: were able to legally sell their product again, that they
• 58:47
  Speaker 4: maybe had some influence in banning the competition. Perhaps it's
• 58:54
  Speaker 4: just it's oddly ironic that the prohibition on alcohol was
• 58:58
  Speaker 4: lifted in nineteen thirty three. And the Marijuana Band went
• 59:02
  Speaker 4: into effect in nineteen thirty three. I don't know where
• 59:06
  Speaker 4: do you come down on legalized marijuana in this country?
• 59:10
  Speaker 4: Do you think any substance should be banned? Cigarette smoking
• 59:16
  Speaker 4: is allowed, Alcohol obviously is available, and fewer and fewer
• 59:22
  Speaker 4: people are smoking cigarettes, and fewer and fewer people are
• 59:26
  Speaker 4: drinking from the numbers, more people are token up. And
• 59:36
  Speaker 4: where do you draw the line on personal liberty and freedom?
• 59:40
  Speaker 4: On what you ingest into your body, not what you're
• 59:43
  Speaker 4: going to push on somebody else. Six thirty eight Food
• 59:49
  Speaker 4: for thought, don't eat too much, don't choke on it,
• 59:52
  Speaker 4: as they like to say. Gary Jeffen for Brian Thomas
• 59:55
  Speaker 4: this morning on fifty five KRC, the talk station.
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: Much Champion will be out.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 4: Last dance for Mary Jane. I think she's just hitting
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 4: the dance floor as a matter of fact.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 4: And on the subjects of marijuana, Corey wants to chime in. Corey,
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 4: good morning, How are you doing.
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 16: Doing great?
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 11: This is my two cents worth. I've never smoked weed,
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 11: but pretty much everybody in my family and all my friends,
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 11: I've always been big hotheads.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 11: They always term the term the point point to term
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 11: cookie fried because they smoked. Some of them smoke so
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 11: much they're always giggly, you know, yeah phrase and uh,
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 11: I think it really does affect your learning ability. I
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 11: always tell them they call it dope for a reason,
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 11: makes it kind of done. You can't speak clearly. But
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 11: with that being said, this is America. I think the
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 11: libertarian side of me, they're free to do whatever they want.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 16: It's not hurting me.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 11: And I agree it should be legal, and I even
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 11: think at age of eighteen there should be age restrictions
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 11: like cigarettes. As I think is that'sally ridiculous.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 13: That's twenty one.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 11: Do you want to smoke cigarettes? You should be able to.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 11: That's part of my two cents on it.
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 4: No, No, And that's kind of the where I'm at.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 4: And as someone who has experienced marijuana and has used
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 4: marijuana in the past, I really don't like doing it now.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 4: But I don't like any kind of prohibition on anything
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 4: for an adult, but for children and for teenagers, I
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 4: don't know how you keep it out of their hands.
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 4: And if you make it legal and it's something you
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 4: can buy but only at a license store, it seems
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 4: like it's more likely to keep it out of kids'
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 4: hands than on a black market, because the black market
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 4: doesn't care about any regulations obviously, you.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 14: Know what I mean.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 11: I agree one hundred percent. Also, if I can chase
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 11: subthing real quick. You're talking about low voter turnout earlier. Well,
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 11: I think one of the reasons for that is, no
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 11: matter who we vote for LEAs and Ohio, it seems
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 11: he getting the same thing. They run as an extreme
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 11: conservative or splash this, cut that, and when they get
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 11: in there, it's the same same old, same old, the
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 11: same rhino mentality, the Mike Wines and Matt Huffman's And
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 11: I think that's a huge, huge part of the reason
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 11: a lot of people stay home and you get thirteen
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 11: twenty five.
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 4: Percent turnout, well you got you got pigs at the trough.
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 4: And the twenty five percent turnout isn't just in Ohio,
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 4: it's it's all over the country. How do you think
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 4: that the communists got elected in New York? It's they're
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 4: running as Democrats and the Democrat banner in a heavily Democrat,
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 4: heavily blue area of the country. But when you get
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 4: sixteen seventeen percent turnout, uh, you kind of get what
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 4: the apathy gives you six forty six, Mississippi James, real quickly,
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 4: you had something on fraud, waste and abuse.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 10: Yes, sir, how you doing, mister ji Jiff.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 4: I'm fine, brother, I have just a quick, quick moment
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 4: here for you. So go ahead, okay.
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 2: You know, I look at it, and I say, I
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 2: agree with you on that. You know, but it seemed
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 2: like we keep on looking at the bottom of the
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 2: bear or the people that we will arrest and throw
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 2: in jail, which we call social welfare. They steal something,
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 2: but when it get up to the top, wee corporate welfare.
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 2: They're stealing getting all the money they come in, multi millionaires, billionaires.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 2: You know, do we turn a blind eye or they
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: just have enough to hire good lawyers to get them aft.
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, as far as corporations or wealthy people go,
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 4: Mississippi James, I've never had a poor person give me
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 4: a job.
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 2: What they got to do with fraud?
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 4: Well, I understand, No, I understand, and I agree with that.
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 4: I guess I was looking more from the angle of
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 4: the Democrat Socialists of America point of view that it's
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 4: corporations and billionaires that are the problem, and they're the
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 4: reason you don't have anything. No, actually, they're the reason
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 4: that people have jobs. But that's that's different than the fraud,
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 4: waste and abuse. You're right, and it should be eliminated completely,
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 4: no matter who is getting who is grifting the public dollars,
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 4: whether it's as you say, the bottom of the barrel.
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 4: It is a fact, though that the explosion of fraud
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 4: in places like California and Minnesota has been illegal immigrants
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 4: and just outright criminals. And there may have been corporate
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 4: involvement in that, but there is certainly involvement from nngos
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 4: and these organizations that are supposedly social service things like
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 4: daycares and hospice centers. I mean billions upon billions upon
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 4: billions of dollars there. It's six forty eight a breaking
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 4: back on fifty five KRC, the talk station.
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 1: We put the app in KRS the talk station.
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 4: All those darn Bridge inspections. Huh, Gary jeff in for
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 4: Brian Thomas this morning and Andy on the telephone, Andy,
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 4: what's going on?
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 17: Calling about the prohibition conversation? And for me, this really
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 17: comes down to who owns your body? Do you own
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 17: it or does the government own it?
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 4: So exactly.
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 8: Do you own your.
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 17: Body, then you get to choose what gets put in
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 17: your body certainly, So as a rule then I'm basically
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 17: against any form of prohibition. And you look at the
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 17: different drugs, all of them, uh, the the psychedelics have
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 17: the lowest risk profile, followed by marijuana.
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 4: Okay, well, and it's not of my business, but do
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 4: you personally indulge.
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 10: Not really.
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 17: I've tried them in the past, but I'm not particularly
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 17: It's it's just.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 14: Not my thing.
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 4: And that and that's that's what I came to. You know,
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 4: I have in the past, and I'm really not into
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 4: it because I really don't like the way it makes
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 4: me feel. To be honest with you, and to restrict
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 4: someone else I don't think is my business either. There
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 4: are people on the other side of the argument who
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 4: would argue that it does put other members of society
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 4: at risk because of the possible actions of someone who
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 4: is under the influence of said drugs and substances.
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 17: And to those people, I would say then that they
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 17: are pro alcohol prohibition. They just think it's impractical, in
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 17: which case we're back to the impracticality argument.
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, okay, that's pretty cut and dried and pretty plain,
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 4: and I can't really disagree or pick that when I'm
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 4: part at all Andy. In fact, I probably would say
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 4: that I one hundred percent agree with you. Thanks for
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 4: chiming in this subject. Warren Davidson will join us just
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 4: after the news break, which is coming up right now

• 1:08:26
  Speaker 4: is Gary Jeff Walker in for Brian Thomas. I'm fifty
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 4: five KRC. Great to be with you on this morning show,
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 4: and it's time for a weekly chat with the Congressman
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 4: from the eighth District of Ohio and the US House
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 4: of Representatives, The Honorable Warren Davidson joins US Congressman Davidson.
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 4: How are we this morning, Gary, It's.
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 16: An honor to join you.
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 10: I hope Brian has an awesome vacation, but it's good
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 10: to talk with you this morning.
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 4: So always great to talk with you. For you and I,
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 4: it's been quite a long time. I wanted to ask
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 4: you current events stuff about this fraud hearing yesterday where,
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 4: among others, Nick Shirley was testifying about his exposure of
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 4: massive amounts of fraud, you know, when it comes to
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 4: the hospice care in California, the learning centers, and the
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 4: Somali tide, fraud in Minnesota, and fraud in mostly Democrat
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 4: strongholds in this country. Although it is everywhere, it seems
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 4: that taxpayers dollars are being wasted or being grafted drifted
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 4: all over the country and it should be maybe a
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 4: bigger concern than it is for us. And it was
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 4: notable in yesterday's hearing Congressman Davidson that there was only
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 4: about one or two Democrat representatives actually in attendance at this.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, Nick Sureley's the hero. I mean you
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 10: think about, you know, the purpose of a press, part
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 10: of a free press, an honest, free press, is essential
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 10: to defending freedom. Surely's just a young guy. He said,
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 10: you know, I think I can do this and did
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 10: some independent investigative journalism and exposed some massive fraud. But
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 10: how was he able to do that? Part of the
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 10: things that he had access to, and frankly, the public
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 10: does now came from DOGE exposing you know, where the
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 10: money is going, how it's being paid, who it's being
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 10: paid to, and a lot of it's going to inngos
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 10: non government organizations, which is you know another you know,
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 10: ironic name because a lot of them. What you find
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 10: is there are one hundred percent government funded.
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 18: So these guys get all this money.
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 10: Some of them are for profit corporations. But he started
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 10: following the money and say, well, gosh, it seems odd
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 10: that there's like one hundred of these things in the
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 10: same building, and just showed up and started asking questions.
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 10: He's like, well, this doesn't make sense. You get a
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 10: learning center named a leering center. That that's certainly made
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 10: for a good way to punctuate it. But the precursor
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 10: work really was done by those coming in and just
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 10: applying good accounting techniques, because what they exposed is when
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 10: Treasury makes payments, they don't run the books as well
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 10: as this small business. You know, in a small business,
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 10: even when using something as simple as quick books, there
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 10: there's a match like did I did I get a
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 10: purchase order for this? Did I intend to buy this?
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 19: Yes?
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 10: Did I receive it?
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: Yes?
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 10: Who authorized it? Yeah, that's all tracked and it's done
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 10: before you pay it out. But you have all kinds
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 10: of fraud being exposed here.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 18: And then, you know, the great thing is is the
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 18: president is not only you know.
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 10: Quick the vice president to give a lot of energy
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 10: onto this. They created a functional leader within the Department
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 10: of Justice so they can pursue these prosecutions. Prosecutions are
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 10: already underway. And where did the fraud occur? You talk
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 10: a lot of it in Democrats strongholds. This is tied
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 10: to sanctuary city policies. So this is one of the
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 10: hooks that they get everybody to come in and they
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 10: flood it with cash. So it provides a big incentive
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 10: to get the you know, non American population into the city.
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 10: And then they're ready to embrace Oh I'm an American
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 10: while you're paying me this much money, and they'll just
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 10: wire it back home. So this look at the whole
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 10: approach here. Remittances going from the United States from people
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 10: that are on welfare, well, a lot of them shouldn't
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 10: even be in the United States in the first place.
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 10: The money isn't being handled well, and then they're getting
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 10: so much extra money they're sending it back to foreign countries.
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 10: So why wouldn't they want to back home in the
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 10: home country, send people here, you live more comfortably, and
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 10: you have surplus to send back. And it's a sick
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 10: and senisor system. And you know, we're cutting down on it,
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 10: not only with a secure border, but with this you know,
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 10: doze looking at it and now prosecutions and then we're
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 10: going to cut off money here soon, hopefully next week,
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 10: we're going to cut off any payments to sanctuary cities.
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 4: It's a fantastic and it's about adt about damn time.
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 4: The Minneapolis the Minneapolis airport, which is not even in
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 4: the top five airports in the United States, was being
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 4: used to mule millions, hundreds of millions of dollars back
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 4: to Somalia in suitcases. I mean, it's not even being
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 4: wired back home. In some cases, it was actually being
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 4: transported somehow legally out of the country through the Minneapolis airport.
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 4: This is crazy.
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 10: Yeah, that was happening in Columbus as well. Yeah, and
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 10: you think about it, well, somebody is, some bank or
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 10: financial institution is tied to this, and frankly, some of
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 10: the banks are pushing back. They have by law to
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 10: know your customer vision. You have to know who your
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 10: customers are. But if you go in and want too
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 10: much cash out of your branks, they start asking questions.
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 10: If you travel on a regular airline with more than
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 10: ten thousand dollars in cash and don't disclose it, it's
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 10: a crime. But they're loading up millions of dollars on
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 10: planes and shipping it out of the United States. I mean,
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 10: this is this is insane and obviously, as you know,
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 10: as I love your adt phrase, but you know, you
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 10: look at it, find me somebody's doing something about that.
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 10: And look, I think that's one of the things that
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 10: has made people love President Trump so much. As you
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 10: look at things everyone thought or said, but maybe privately
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 10: now they're looking at someone in office, the president of
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 10: United States, and he's doing something about it. And you know,
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 10: we got a lot of work left to do, and
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 10: hopefully Congress will help carry some of the load here.
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 4: Well, you mentioned Doge, and I heard another a peer
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 4: of mine, a local talk show host a name was
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 4: talking about Doge and said, well, Doge was largely unsuccessful,
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 4: and how can you say that Doze was never intended
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 4: to be the end all be all. It was just
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 4: the match that lit the fire under people like Nick Shirley.
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 4: I think Doze was extremely successful and was, like I said,
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 4: the precursor to all of this being found out by
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 4: independent journalists like Nick Shirley and others who were exposing
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 4: this fraud. I mean, when we've got an Attorney General
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 4: in Minnesota, for example, Keith Ellison, a former colleague I
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 4: guess of yours in Congress, who it looks like some
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 4: of this fraudulent money was going to his campaign. So
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 4: it's this circular kind of kickback scheme. I wonder how
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 4: much of that has been going on.
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean you look at one of the other
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 10: things that we've had as an investigation, We've had referrals
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 10: to the Apartment Justice. This is what I don't know
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 10: is Act Blue and this is a Democrat fundraising arm
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 10: some of you know, there's there's evidence there that some
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 10: of this was coming directly into Act Blue from offshore,
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 10: through probably some other NGOs that were getting cash maybe
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 10: from the USAID and others certainly foreign actors, and going
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 10: directly into Democrat campaigns. And they were they were structuring
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 10: this stuff with illicit finance techniques where you have to
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 10: disclose who the donor is. You have to cap the donations,
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 10: and you have to explain with Federal Election Commission filings,
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 10: like you know, thirty three hundred dollars is like the
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 10: max direct campaign donation ahead of the primary, another thirty
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 10: three hundred for the general for example, into a campaign fund.
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 10: But you can do other structures for it. But you
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 10: find little old ladies. They'll go. A guy name James
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 10: o'keefehughes out knocking investigative journalism, knocking on doors and said,
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 10: you know some you know, eighty five year old lady,
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 10: like ma'am, did you donate sixty thousand dollars to Democrats
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 10: last year? And you know eighty thousand dollars a year before?
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 18: No good heavens, I don't have that kind of money,
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 18: never even heard anything about it.
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 10: Completely fake. So we've got the evidence. I don't know
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 10: where the trials are going to begin, but like, how
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 10: is that not going to get to light? So this
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 10: all ties back to the kind of the voter operation
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 10: on the other end of this, registered and fake voters
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 10: and the coordinated piece of the sanctuary cities and the
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 10: voters and the money laundering is also tied with the census.
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 10: So when people are, you know, US citizens, they're supposed
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 10: to be counted in the census, and they're supposed to
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 10: count for representation.
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 18: I represent the United.
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 10: States citizens, but in the way that they pushed to
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 10: do the census. Now you count everybody present. You know,
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 10: you could be here illegally, legally, whatever, but you're not
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 10: a citizen. If you're not a citizen of our country,
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 10: you have an ambassador who represents you. You don't have
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 10: a congressman. You're represented at an embassy, not the United
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 10: States capital. And that would be seen in every other country.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 10: We wouldn't go to a foreign country and expect that
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 10: a member of parliament would represent us. We would say
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 10: I should go to the American embassy. So all these
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 10: kinds of things come together to be the big magnet
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 10: to draw foreign population. That over representation for sanctuary cities
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 10: and states. That drives cash. You get more welfare dollars
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 10: per capital distributions for some other funds.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 18: Into these areas. You're using that cash to wander through.
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 10: In campaign donations and.
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 18: Then it shows up in votes.
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 10: And I think the President's going to expose some of
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 10: this stuff tonight when he addresses the nation at nine o'clock.
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he says he's got some big news to tell
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 4: the American people this evening in that address, Davidson, when
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 4: we return, I want to talk about the Save America
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 4: Act and where we're at and if that's ever got
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 4: a chance to pass in the Senate. As we continue
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 4: on this Thursday morning, Congressman Davidson our guests for another
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 4: segment on fifty five k RC, the talk station our
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 4: iHeart Radio Music Festival see the talk station, continuing our
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 4: conversation with Borren Davidson, Congressman from the eighth District of Ohio,
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 4: perhaps your representative if you live in that district, and
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 4: Congressman Davidson. The Save America Act has been going back
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 4: and forth between the House and Senate, and it seems
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 4: like it's stalled with John Soon in the Senate. What
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 4: is the reason for that and why can't we get
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 4: something legislation passed that even eighty percent of Democrats were
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 4: largely in favor of is as far as proving who
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 4: you are to actually cast a ballot and an election.
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 10: Let me just correct one thing. It's not been going
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 10: back and forth. It's only been going from the House
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 10: to the Senate.
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know.
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 10: Four times or so we can't get the Senate to
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 10: take action. And they have this, you know, the Senate
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 10: gets to make their own rules. We make our own rules.
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 10: They've had a rule of a filibuster for a long time,
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 10: but a filibuster is supposed to be if you want
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 10: to control the floor, you're supposed to be on the
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 10: floor and hold the floor. They created this sixty vote rule,
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 10: and a lot of times they don't even call the
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 10: question and cast the sixty votes. It's effectively become the
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 10: office filibuster. They just talk about it and hang out
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 10: in their office and don't even go to the arena
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 10: to engage in the combat that's supposed to take place
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 10: on the floor with votes. And so look, fun hasn't
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 10: been able to get the will to go to the floor.
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 10: I mean, I hope Vice President Vance walks over, grabs
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 10: the gabble and tells the Senate it's now in the
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 10: order to consider the Same America Act and makes them vote.
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 10: I mean, if nothing else, they'll say, you know, they
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 10: want to overturn the ruling of the chair. But the
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 10: overturn the ruling of the chair takes sixty votes in
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 10: the sense. So that's the way to weaponize the sixty
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 10: vote rule against them. Look, I think they owe us
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 10: to vote. I mean even if they say, oh, we
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 10: only have forty five votes, well great, show us who
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 10: the seven Republican senators are who won't.
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 4: Vote for this exactly.
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 10: But you're right, it's mind blowing that Democrats say, oh, well,
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 10: we can't pass this. I mean, all of Ohio's folks
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 10: should be voting yes on this. Think thirty six or
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 10: thirty seven states have some form of voter ID. They
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 10: all say, oh, well, foreigners can't vote. You have to
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 10: be you have to be an American citizen to vote.
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 10: That doesn't happen. Well, let us just check the voter
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 10: rolls and make sure. Oh well, no, no, no, no, no,
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 10: we can't do that.
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 18: That's the other provision of it.
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 10: Now, in Ohio, we're checking that, right, But in California
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 10: and Illinois and New York and New Jersey, you know
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 10: darn well, they're not checking that. They didn't accidentally do
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 10: sanctuary city policies, toy state policies, and they're not accidentally
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 10: blocking the Trump administration from getting access to their voter roles,
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 10: you know, and high the voter roles republic. So in
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 10: some states they guard that stuff, you know, secretly because
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 10: they don't want to point out that, hey man, this
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 10: guy is like one hundred and eighty years old and
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 10: he's voted the last three elections. So this kind of
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 10: in Ohio when John Houstad was Secretary of State. Now,
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 10: of course our United States senator from the vacancy Getty
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 10: vance created when he became Vice president. John Houstead had
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 10: to go to the United States Supreme Court and win
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 10: a case just to scrub our voter roles from dead people.
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 10: Democrats blocked them all the way to the Supreme Court
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 10: just to get the right to go through and look
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 10: at their roles and take off dead people. And that's
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 10: the same kind of dogged fight we're having this resulting
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 10: in past trying to get to save America back Pass.
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 10: But I can't explain why they said it won't vote.
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 10: We think we have a way to do it with
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 10: the Reconciliation Bill. That will put pressure. You know, we're
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 10: talking about how to pull it off.
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 18: But I think we have a plan and so hopefully.
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 10: We will run the play.
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean, let's get it on the books. Man,
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 4: let's get the president to sign it, because you know
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 4: he's gonna do that. But dead Democrats have been voting
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 4: at large in elections ever since nineteen sixty in Chicago
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 4: with the election of John F. Kennedy. It's not exactly
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 4: a new thing. And real quickly with a couple of minutes,
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 4: the blockades back on in the straightfor moves. The President
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 4: has decided that the Iranians are not to have no
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 4: integrity in negotiation or diplomacy, which they've proven consistently over
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 4: the years. It was a nice attempt by President Trump,
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 4: but I mean it seems like it's full steam ahead
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 4: with pressure on whatever's left of the Iranian regime to
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 4: get this over with and done. The American people wanted
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 4: over with, and I think this maximum pressure, both militarily
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 4: and economically, is the only thing that's going to do.
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 10: At your opinion, yeah, Look, I've been a big fan
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 10: of the blockade concept even before they started bombing again
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 10: and February twenty eighth. I had a meeting at the
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 10: White House on February twenty second, and part of the
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 10: problem was maximum pressure worked in the first Trump administration
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 10: was we had sanctions and we had leverage with other
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 10: countries and they were helping also apply the sanctions. And
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 10: so one of the big voids was there was a
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 10: huge black market in Iranian oil shipping out below market
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 10: prices to China. That was going on in Venezuela as well,
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 10: and so a lot of the sanctions that are out
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 10: there were being evaded and creating black markets, and so
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 10: maximum pressure wasn't working anymore. I'm like, well, why not
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 10: put a blockade out there. Our Mayvy's big enough and
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 10: powerful enough to stop every Iranian ship and every ship
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 10: we think that has Aranian and oil in it. And
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 10: that's finally what they are doing, and I think that's
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 10: going to deliver results. Look, the Uranians, no one trusts
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 10: them in the first place, but the deal was about
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 10: being able to measure results and offer to the It
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 10: will create unrest in Iran because the public in Iran knows, hey.
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 18: You have a way to live differently, and.
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 10: The hardliners are happy to continue your suffering and validate
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 10: their prophetic view of their radical, crazy Jihati ideology. But
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 10: a lot of the public just wants a better life,
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 10: and this is putting pressure on the regime there inside
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 10: the country. Because they know with this peace offer, there's
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 10: a clear offer of a different future for Iran, and
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 10: the Mullas that are running the country are saying no thanks.
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 4: Well, less than ten percent of the Iranian people support
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 4: the Jihadis, but it's a death sentence to oppose them
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 4: right now because the IRGC and the hardliners that are
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 4: still whatever vestige of that that's still left in power.
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 4: What do you plan on doing after Congress?
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 10: Warn I don't know.
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 18: I mean, I think there will be a time where
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 18: I just want to go.
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 10: Back to the private sector and make money. And I
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 10: love manufacturing. You know, unless somebody makes the stuff, there's
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 10: no stuff. There's never been a better time to make
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 10: things in America. It was a you know, finally President
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 10: Trump's calling attention to the unfair trade deals we got,
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 10: especially with China. And there's a great thing about making things.
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 10: When you make things and if it's not right, you
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 10: stop making them. In Congress, you can know that something's broken,
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 10: but you can't ever get these guys to turn it off.
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 10: I miss the clarity of that certainly sometimes. But it's
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 10: an honor to be in the fight here and represent
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 10: the good people of the Wiles eighth district.
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 4: Well, it's great to have you on this morning, and
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 4: thank you for your time. As all was. It's seven
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 4: twenty seven at fifty five KRC the talk station.
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 1: As America marks it's two hundred and fiftieth anniversary.
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 6: We're looking back at two and a.
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 19: Big and how can it become so rampant? And the
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 19: reason is because no one actually ever really looked into it.
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 19: When Elon Muss offered to help by creating those people burned,
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 19: his factories, bombed, Hiss cars, and politicians even celebrated his
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 19: company's stock going down. Elon was right when he said
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 19: the fraudsers complained the loudest, that is.
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 4: Nick Shirley at the fraud hearing in Washington, d C.
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 4: Yesterday that practically no Democrats attended, surprise surprise. At one point,
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 4: Nick Shirley was asked, why do you think there's no
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 4: Democrat participation in this hearing, and he said because Democrats
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 4: need the fraud. In other words, they needed to keep
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 4: the money coming flowing, the tax many flowing, suggesting that
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 4: there's all kinds of graft, not just on behalf of
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 4: Somali illegal Somalian immigrants or the people in California with
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 4: the hospice centers, the supposed hospice centers that weren't actually
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 4: supporting any sick or dying patients, to the billions the
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 4: tune of billions of dollars, but suggesting that Gavin Newsom,
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 4: the governor of California and the Democrat stronghold that is
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 4: most of these states. I mean it has. It has
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 4: happened in every sing It's happened in Ohio, It's happened
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 4: all over the country. But the biggest, the biggest outgo
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 4: of cash that's just disappeared, taxpayer money that has been
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 4: fraudulently grabbed by these NGOs and these groups supported have
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 4: been by Democrat led states. Can we have more of mixture?
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 4: Nick Shirley yesterday, Joe, if you will give me another clip.
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 19: If you will, My exposing the fraud actually also exposed
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 19: the politicians and media and media who worked for years
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 19: to cover it up. Governor Tim Waltz lay well my
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 19: work as a white supremacy and called me a far right, delusional,
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 19: conspiracy theorist. Meanwhile, he dropped out of reelection, and he
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 19: even said he has ended his political career. Now the
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 19: highest government funded daycare in Minnesota has pleaded guilty to
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 19: daycare fraud, and the largest autism bust in America history
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 19: has been exposed. Where's Tim Watson the media? Now, it
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 19: just so happens that over eighty percent of the fraud
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 19: committed in Minnesota is by the Somali Population Act.
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it just so happens. But again, this is a
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 4: group of people given sanctuary in Minnesota who don't come
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 4: from a system where there's any kind of transparency or
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 4: accountability in their own country. I mean, fraud is an
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 4: everyday part of their life. Crime is the way they've
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 4: been raised because they come from unaccountable political struct ructures
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 4: that don't closely resemble what we have in the or
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 4: what we're supposed to have in the United States of America.
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 4: In places like Somoonia, I mean, there's just there's no
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 4: there there when it comes to anything that's close to
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 4: a reputable government, which is one of the reasons they
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 4: fled their country and they're transporting this criminality here because
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 4: that's all they know. Graft is the way of life,
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 4: that's the way you do business in places like Somonia,
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 4: and apparently in places like Minnesota. No big surprise there, Joe,
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 4: if you've got anything else. From Nick Shirley testifying yesterday
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 4: at the Fraud Hearing, I'd love to hear that now anymore.
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 19: Cut this community where an impossible one third of Americans
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 19: on hospice care were set to die.
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 6: In Los Angeles.
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 19: The next day, the Governor Gavin Newsom post and ai
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 19: general image of myself trying to mock and discredit my work.
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 19: Only days later, he and his Attorney general both try
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 19: to take credit for exposing the fraud. Now, the Attorney
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 19: General's wife has created a bill that would make it
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 19: criminal to expose fraud. The Stop Nick Shirley Act, also
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 19: known as AB twenty six twenty four, will help fraudsters
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 19: cover up their crimes and prevent themselves from being exposed,
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 19: specifically in immigrant communities. Politicians often use immigrant communities to
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 19: commit fraud.
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 4: Why would.
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 19: Why would they allow this to happen? In California Medical,
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 19: their medicaid program has now more than doubled from one
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 19: hundred and eight billion dollars in twenty twenty two to
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 19: have proposed twenty two two hundred and twenty two billion,
• 1:31:43
  Speaker 19: while enrollment has only a rose by less than one percent.
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 19: The system is filled with bad actors and frausters.
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 4: Yes it is. Seven thirty seven. Will have a little
• 1:31:53
  Speaker 4: bit more of Nick Shirley testifying yesterday. This kid is
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 4: what twenty two to twenty three years old, and he
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 4: has done the work that lifelong journalist, mainstream media journalist
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 4: would never do. Why aren't they about exposing the truth?
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 4: Aren't they about informing the American public, especially where our
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 4: money is going? It took this kid on his own,
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 4: inspired by Dosee to do this and to let us know.
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 4: You know, it reminds me of the old U John
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 4: Prime song. Different set of circumstances, but there's a line
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 4: he said, there's a hole in Daddy's arm where all
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 4: the money goes. There's a hole in California and Minnesota
• 1:32:46
  Speaker 4: specifically where all of our money is going. Seven thirty eight,
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 4: fifty five KRCV Talk Station. If you're looking for a
• 1:32:53
  Speaker 4: mortgage expert. If you're looking for a mortgage expert, you've
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 4: broad ramp to the inspection on the Carrol Cropper Chuck
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 4: Ingram Karc the talk station. One more time. Here's another
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 4: clip of Nick Shirley testifying in our nation's capital yesterday
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 4: at the fraud hearing Nick.
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 6: In New York City.
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 19: Government funded adult daycares pay for elderly Koreans and Chinese
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 19: to play ping pong and do tai chi at the
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 19: taxpayers and at the taxpayer's expense, an impossible number of
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 19: patients are registered, and those patients receive kickbacks for attending
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 19: and signing up their friends. Over two billion dollars has
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 19: gone to these fraudsters at the taxpayer's expense. And I'm
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 19: just one person doing the work of many people. If
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 19: the government and media is not going to do their
• 1:33:39
  Speaker 19: job to help America, it's the responsibility of strong men
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 19: and women, however old they may be, to do it.
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 19: I am doing it despite the threats and burdens that come.
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 19: It must be done. I'm doing it with the help
• 1:33:51
  Speaker 19: of everyday Americans that government paid officials are supposed to do.
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 19: In the media teams across the country have millions of
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 19: dollars to do this, yet they don't look into this fraud.
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 19: It actually quite literally failed us. If we as Americans
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 19: do not stand up to protect our country, we will
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 19: lose our country.
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 4: We're thirty nine trillion dollars in debt as a nation,
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 4: and I know that one hundred billion here and two
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 4: hundred billion there and ninety billion somewhere else. Doesn't seem
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 4: like it's going to make much of a difference. But
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 4: every little bit does make a difference. If this doesn't
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 4: tick you off, then you're probably one of the people
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 4: that won't get out and vote. They won't let your
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 4: voice be heard because you think you don't make a difference.
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 4: Every bit of it counts. And if you don't understand that,
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 4: then you know, you just tune out and go, Well,
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 4: you know, I've got too many things to worry about.
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 4: I'm living my life. I'm trying to earn a living.
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 4: I'm trying, well, you know what that money that you're
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 4: trying to earn, to keep your family afloat, to have
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 4: the things you want. You're working hard and if this
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 4: doesn't interest you, then you're part of the problem. This
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 4: is the best thing that could happen right now is
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 4: exposing this and trying to claw back some of the
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 4: money because it's not from a giant wall in Washington,
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 4: DC where they have all the money. I mean, they
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 4: keep on printing more of it, but it's coming out
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 4: of our pockets. We're paying for this. Are you not
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 4: incensed by this. If Nick Shirley can make a difference
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 4: in exposing can you imagine if all of us became
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 4: Nick Shirley's and watch dogs of our money? I mean,
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 4: if you get a charge on your credit card statement
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 4: and you don't know where it came from, I'm on
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 4: the phone to Capital One, I'm on the phone to
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 4: my financial institution, going what is this charge? If you
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 4: get a charge in your checking account at the bank
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 4: and you don't know what it is, I'm sorry, I'm
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 4: calling the bank or I'm going to the bank and
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 4: I'm finding out where did this money come from? Where
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 4: did it go? I didn't authorize this. Did you authorize
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 4: your tax dollars to go to have Koreans play Ping
• 1:36:44
  Speaker 4: pong in New York City? Did you authorize your tax
• 1:36:49
  Speaker 4: dollars to help sick and dying people who weren't didn't
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 4: actually exist, so somebody could take the money, could eave
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 4: the money from you and me. And you're saying, well,
• 1:37:07
  Speaker 4: what can I do about it? Well, you can raise
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 4: your voice. If you don't raise your voice in America,
• 1:37:14
  Speaker 4: and you're allowed to do that. The Constitution allows you
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 4: to redress grievances with your government publicly put their feet
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 4: to the fire. If you don't do that, then it's
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 4: your fault. You're a fraudster too. As an American citizen,
• 1:37:35
  Speaker 4: we all ought to be outraged about this unless we're
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 4: participating in the fraud. Oh let them get theirs. I
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 4: want to get in mine too. Someday. You're just a
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 4: potential fraudster too. If you don't let your representative, if
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 4: you don't let your senator, if you don't let your
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 4: president know that you're outraged by this, then you're right.
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 4: You can't make a difference. I can't make a difference.
• 1:38:07
  Speaker 4: I have a platform to just let you know what's
• 1:38:12
  Speaker 4: being exposed, and I'm going to do that at every turn.
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 4: I'm not going to say, well, that's just the way
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 4: it is. If we all keep on saying well that's
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 4: just the way it is and there's nothing we can
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 4: do about it, then there's nothing we can do about it,
• 1:38:32
  Speaker 4: and it'll stay that way. Just like if we don't
• 1:38:36
  Speaker 4: get out and vote. You live in City of Cincinnati,
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 4: you live in Hamilton County, and you don't get out
• 1:38:43
  Speaker 4: and vote in primary elections or general elections, whether it's
• 1:38:47
  Speaker 4: a presidential election or not, then then you're part of
• 1:38:50
  Speaker 4: the problem. You're part of the reason somebody else besides
• 1:38:56
  Speaker 4: the one party state can win any election. You've got
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 4: to let your voice be heard, and there are many
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 4: avenues and opportunities for you to do that. And if
• 1:39:09
  Speaker 4: they won't listen, then vote the suckers out. I mean,
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 4: of all the soap boxes I could be on, this
• 1:39:21
  Speaker 4: is probably the most important. While we still have a
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 4: chance to voice our opinion, to vote the way we
• 1:39:28
  Speaker 4: want to vote, because the one party staters want to
• 1:39:34
  Speaker 4: take that away too, the Democrats Socialists of America. You
• 1:39:37
  Speaker 4: think if they become in charge of the House of Representatives,
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 4: of the Senate, of the presidency, you're ever going to
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 4: have a chance to voice your descending opinion. Again, No,
• 1:39:50
  Speaker 4: you will not. They'll just tell you what's best for you,
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 4: and if you don't like it and you continue to protest,
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 4: they'll put you in a gulag. It's funny how the
• 1:40:04
  Speaker 4: left always talks about Trump and concentration camps and weaponizing
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 4: the Justice Department against his enemies, when that's exactly what
• 1:40:14
  Speaker 4: they will do if they're in power. We saw it
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 4: before during the Obama administration, during the Biden administration, they
• 1:40:21
  Speaker 4: weaponize the DOJ and the FBI against people from the
• 1:40:26
  Speaker 4: other party. And that's exactly what the DSA and communists
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 4: will do. But they're going to go a step further
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 4: according to their platform announced this week. They're going to
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 4: get rid of the presidency. They're gonna get rid of
• 1:40:38
  Speaker 4: the Senate, They're gonna get rid of the Supreme Court.
• 1:40:42
  Speaker 4: It's pretty simple. It's up to us to stop it.
• 1:40:48
  Speaker 4: If you see something, say something, And if there's fraud
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 4: going on, it's your money and my money that they're stealing.
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 4: Seems pretty cut and dried. Seven nine. Gary Jeffen for
• 1:41:02
  Speaker 4: Brian Thomas on fifty five KRC the Talk Station.
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 6: Hey, Gary Salvan here for show Off Tour Rental.
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 4: It's time KRC the Talk Station. It's a couple of
• 1:41:12
  Speaker 4: minutes left. Let's take a call Steve. Good morning, you're
• 1:41:15
  Speaker 4: on the air.
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 16: Good morning, Gary, jeff I made one years old. I
• 1:41:20
  Speaker 16: just got a comment about what's going on in America.
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 16: I've seen lots of crime so much it's just daunting,
• 1:41:30
  Speaker 16: and you wonder where we're going to end up. But
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 16: one thing, and I was alive in the nineteen fifties.
• 1:41:37
  Speaker 16: I grad from high school in nineteen sixty three. America
• 1:41:41
  Speaker 16: was an amazing place. Back then, I didn't know what
• 1:41:44
  Speaker 16: crime was. We went on vacation, didn't even lock our
• 1:41:47
  Speaker 16: house because there's no crime in our neighborhood. I remember that.
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 16: In nineteen sixty three there were a couple of Supreme
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 16: Court decisions that changed America and we've been downhill ever since.
• 1:42:02
  Speaker 16: And that was Madeline Murie O'Hare and a couple others
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 16: filed blawsuits against the influence of Christianity in the schools,
• 1:42:11
  Speaker 16: in the public square. And so at that time, before that,
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 16: you could post a Ten Commandments in schools, you could
• 1:42:20
  Speaker 16: pray in class, you could have Bibles in class, and
• 1:42:24
  Speaker 16: sometimes teachers did pray. But in nineteen sixty three, ciacy
• 1:42:28
  Speaker 16: through sixty three school a year, those things were outlaw.
• 1:42:32
  Speaker 16: No more Ten Commandments, no more prayer, no more Bibles
• 1:42:35
  Speaker 16: in school. And here's what happened. Within five years, you
• 1:42:39
  Speaker 16: had a sexual revolution and the drug epidemic, and it's
• 1:42:43
  Speaker 16: been downhill ever since. The Ten Commandments are now gone
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 16: from American society and culture for the most part.
• 1:42:52
  Speaker 4: Oh, I can't disagree with you whatsoever any at all, Steve,
• 1:42:58
  Speaker 4: And I'll tell you what I know how this story ends.
• 1:43:01
  Speaker 4: I'm a believing Christian, and any form of man made
• 1:43:04
  Speaker 4: government is bound to be corrupt and flawed and fail ultimately.
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 4: But one day, and the Bible tells us this is
• 1:43:15
  Speaker 4: that one day, every knee shall bow, every tongue confess
• 1:43:20
  Speaker 4: that Jesus Christ is Lord, and things will be perfect
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 4: when he returns. And I pray it soon we will
• 1:43:30
  Speaker 4: have Mike Wilson from empower you in a virtual class
• 1:43:34
  Speaker 4: that you may want may want to know about considering
• 1:43:38
  Speaker 4: AI and how it's infiltrating almost every facet of our lives,
• 1:43:44
  Speaker 4: and how you can take advantage of that personally. Right
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 4: after the break on fifty five KRC, the talk.
• 1:43:52
  Speaker 3: Station, the iHeartRadio app It's where White House Zasian.
• 1:44:01
  Speaker 4: Creeping up on eight oh six on this Thursday morning,
• 1:44:04
  Speaker 4: Gary JFN for Brian A. I. Some people are afraid.
• 1:44:13
  Speaker 4: Is it gonna take my job? Is it going to
• 1:44:15
  Speaker 4: take over everything?
• 1:44:16
  Speaker 2: Is it?
• 1:44:17
  Speaker 4: Is it a sentient? Is it going to take over
• 1:44:22
  Speaker 4: the world? Well, it's being rapidly integrated into applications that
• 1:44:28
  Speaker 4: all of us use every day. I mean, whether we
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 4: want to or not, whether we want to admit it
• 1:44:33
  Speaker 4: or not, from search engines to phone apps to tools
• 1:44:37
  Speaker 4: you do use at work. How can you make this
• 1:44:43
  Speaker 4: benefit you? How can you make the most of it
• 1:44:47
  Speaker 4: and take advantage of apps like and platforms like Chat, GPT, Microsoft, Copilot, Google, Gemini, Claude, Perplexed,
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 4: and others that I can't pronounce properly. Well, there's an
• 1:45:05
  Speaker 4: empower you virtual class on practical AI for everyday life
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 4: and work and how to get better results from today's
• 1:45:14
  Speaker 4: AI tools that are out there, and Mike Wilson is
• 1:45:17
  Speaker 4: in this morning to talk about it. Good morning, Mike, How.
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 14: Are you, Garry Jeff, I'm doing fantastic. Good to be
• 1:45:24
  Speaker 14: with you this morning.
• 1:45:25
  Speaker 4: Well, I'll tell you I'm one of those I guess
• 1:45:28
  Speaker 4: troglodytes or Neanderthals that you know has a little bit
• 1:45:34
  Speaker 4: of trepidation about artificial intelligence. And it's nice that there's
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 4: at least some instruction on how to use it to
• 1:45:46
  Speaker 4: our advantage and to not look at it like it's
• 1:45:49
  Speaker 4: the enemy. That many of us have at least made
• 1:45:53
  Speaker 4: it a boogeyman, I guess, and it is for a
• 1:45:56
  Speaker 4: lot of people, don't you agree?
• 1:45:58
  Speaker 14: I do agree, and I think a lot of that
• 1:46:00
  Speaker 14: is not necessarily understanding the technology and what it's good
• 1:46:04
  Speaker 14: at and what it's not. I mean, I'm immersed in
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 14: it all day every day. It's kind of what I
• 1:46:07
  Speaker 14: do for a living, you know, And so I think
• 1:46:10
  Speaker 14: the important thing is being able to go through and
• 1:46:13
  Speaker 14: help people kind of understand how do I go through
• 1:46:15
  Speaker 14: and use this for my advantage?
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 8: Right?
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 14: How can I personally benefit? Because I think there's incredible
• 1:46:19
  Speaker 14: benefits if you understand how to go through and use
• 1:46:22
  Speaker 14: things the right way.
• 1:46:23
  Speaker 4: Well, isn't it true that at this stage of AIS
• 1:46:27
  Speaker 4: development that sometimes it does hallucinate. I keep hearing that.
• 1:46:34
  Speaker 14: We're seeing that less and less over time, and a
• 1:46:36
  Speaker 14: lot of that has to do with how you go
• 1:46:38
  Speaker 14: through and prompt the AI and what you ask it
• 1:46:40
  Speaker 14: to go through and do. I mean, I'm finding here
• 1:46:42
  Speaker 14: that if we're kind of using it the right way,
• 1:46:44
  Speaker 14: that the AI tools and the results that are coming
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 14: back are incredibly powerful and incredibly accurate. Doesn't mean they're perfect.
• 1:46:49
  Speaker 14: You still want to go through and check, but you
• 1:46:51
  Speaker 14: know you can go through and use AI effectively today
• 1:46:54
  Speaker 14: to get medical advice, to get legal advice, to do research,
• 1:46:57
  Speaker 14: to do travel planning. There's a lot of kind of
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 14: core everyday use cases for things where you know it
• 1:47:03
  Speaker 14: would you have to go through and pay hundreds or
• 1:47:05
  Speaker 14: thousands of dollars to get an expert, and I can
• 1:47:07
  Speaker 14: at least go through and have AI take a really
• 1:47:09
  Speaker 14: really good first pass, okay, before then choosing to figure
• 1:47:12
  Speaker 14: out when I want to go through and engage someone
• 1:47:14
  Speaker 14: who specializes in that area.
• 1:47:16
  Speaker 4: Are we still finding bias in AI answers?
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 14: You know quite a bit, right, So a lot of
• 1:47:25
  Speaker 14: the different the pros and cons when you start to
• 1:47:28
  Speaker 14: think about what tootal I want to go through and
• 1:47:30
  Speaker 14: use for a given job, comes back to again what
• 1:47:33
  Speaker 14: type of bias they may go through an introduce through
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 14: how they train the models. For example, Claude there's a
• 1:47:39
  Speaker 14: recent study that was done here where if you start
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 14: to get into politically sensitive topics, Claude will go through
• 1:47:45
  Speaker 14: and give you the left wing answer probably fifty percent
• 1:47:47
  Speaker 14: of the time, the middle of the road answer fifty
• 1:47:49
  Speaker 14: percent of the time, and the right wing answer is zero. Now,
• 1:47:52
  Speaker 14: Rock from Xai so Elon Musk's company does a very
• 1:47:56
  Speaker 14: good job of kind of glowing things down the middle
• 1:47:58
  Speaker 14: right at equal amounts right. But a lot of the
• 1:48:01
  Speaker 14: things that we want to do are not necessarily political, right,
• 1:48:04
  Speaker 14: So things like Claude I think has a fantastic job
• 1:48:06
  Speaker 14: in terms of document editing, document creation, deep research, and
• 1:48:10
  Speaker 14: as long as I stay away from politically sensitive topics,
• 1:48:12
  Speaker 14: it's a perfectly good model. But anytime I'm looking for
• 1:48:15
  Speaker 14: real time information or I want to get what's a
• 1:48:17
  Speaker 14: very balanced take on something, I'm using a tool like
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 14: grock to go through and get that done.
• 1:48:21
  Speaker 4: So it all depends which platform you're using at this
• 1:48:25
  Speaker 4: point A lot.
• 1:48:26
  Speaker 14: Of the times, yeah, And I think that's where again,
• 1:48:28
  Speaker 14: the average person doesn't have the experience across all of
• 1:48:31
  Speaker 14: those platforms to be able to go through and kind
• 1:48:33
  Speaker 14: of evaluate that. And so those are some of the
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 14: things that I want to spend some time talking about
• 1:48:36
  Speaker 14: tonight and empower You Online to go through and kind
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 14: of help people navigate that world figure out what's the
• 1:48:42
  Speaker 14: best tool for them based on what they're trying to accomplish.
• 1:48:45
  Speaker 4: Empower Youamerica dot Org tonight between seven and eight thirty
• 1:48:50
  Speaker 4: is this practical AI for everyday life and work course
• 1:48:54
  Speaker 4: or at least instruction by mister Wilson. The key takeaway is,
• 1:49:00
  Speaker 4: and you just talked about it really matters what kind
• 1:49:04
  Speaker 4: of prompting you use, and this is a technique you're
• 1:49:07
  Speaker 4: going to try and teach folks how to how to
• 1:49:10
  Speaker 4: learn practical prompting techniques to get better results.
• 1:49:14
  Speaker 14: The way that I would the way that I would
• 1:49:16
  Speaker 14: describe it is think of AI as a really really
• 1:49:19
  Speaker 14: bright and very friendly and eager intern who wants to
• 1:49:22
  Speaker 14: help you, but is maybe a little bit too literal. Right,
• 1:49:26
  Speaker 14: So if I can go through and give the AI
• 1:49:28
  Speaker 14: more context around what it is and trying to accomplish,
• 1:49:31
  Speaker 14: I'm going to get a better answer. For example, if
• 1:49:33
  Speaker 14: I would go through and say, hey, tell me about
• 1:49:35
  Speaker 14: retirement planning, I'm going to get some very vague understanding.
• 1:49:38
  Speaker 14: I'll probably get like a really good overview of what
• 1:49:40
  Speaker 14: that means. Right, But it's better to be able to
• 1:49:42
  Speaker 14: go through and say, explain retirement planning to me as
• 1:49:45
  Speaker 14: a sixty two year old who I'm not sixty two,
• 1:49:47
  Speaker 14: but just as the example who plans to retire within
• 1:49:50
  Speaker 14: three years, give me a checklist of the five most
• 1:49:52
  Speaker 14: important things to review. Right. That's going to give you
• 1:49:55
  Speaker 14: something that is a lot more specific to your use case.
• 1:49:58
  Speaker 4: How how in an everyday situation can AI save you
• 1:50:04
  Speaker 4: time other than coming up almost. You know, I have
• 1:50:08
  Speaker 4: my iPhone here and Safari, and you know, occasionally I
• 1:50:14
  Speaker 4: will inquire of Safari something that I think I know
• 1:50:17
  Speaker 4: but I'm not quite sure of, and almost instantaneously I
• 1:50:23
  Speaker 4: get generating AI and boom, there's an answer that it gives.
• 1:50:29
  Speaker 4: How how can I be sure in that short of
• 1:50:34
  Speaker 4: time that they're giving me the best answer for my query,
• 1:50:37
  Speaker 4: whatever it is.
• 1:50:41
  Speaker 14: You know, it's like I said before, I think things
• 1:50:43
  Speaker 14: are getting pretty dark useful these days, and we really
• 1:50:45
  Speaker 14: don't see the same level of hallucinations that were we
• 1:50:48
  Speaker 14: were seeing a year or even six months ago. The
• 1:50:50
  Speaker 14: tools I'm finding today are really good across the board,
• 1:50:54
  Speaker 14: you know. And you know, when you talk about time savings,
• 1:50:56
  Speaker 14: I'm obviously research is a good example here. But you know,
• 1:51:00
  Speaker 14: imagine you're getting ready to go through and cook dinner,
• 1:51:01
  Speaker 14: and you're trying to figure out, okay, based on what
• 1:51:04
  Speaker 14: do I have in my refrigerator and what I have
• 1:51:06
  Speaker 14: in my pantry, what can I go through and cook?
• 1:51:08
  Speaker 13: Right?
• 1:51:08
  Speaker 14: So today I could go through and take a picture
• 1:51:11
  Speaker 14: of that with my iPhone or with my Android phone,
• 1:51:14
  Speaker 14: go through and create a prompt saying, hey, give me
• 1:51:16
  Speaker 14: a list of five recipes based on what you see
• 1:51:18
  Speaker 14: in my in my refrigerator and what you see in
• 1:51:21
  Speaker 14: my pantry.
• 1:51:21
  Speaker 4: I never thought about that because I do most of
• 1:51:25
  Speaker 4: the cooking in our house, and I like to cook,
• 1:51:29
  Speaker 4: and I usually have a pretty good idea of what
• 1:51:32
  Speaker 4: I've got, But there have been times and like, I
• 1:51:35
  Speaker 4: don't know what to do with this. I never even
• 1:51:37
  Speaker 4: thought about like taking a picture and saying, Okay, Ai,
• 1:51:42
  Speaker 4: what do I got? What do you suggest for the
• 1:51:44
  Speaker 4: menu this evening? I?
• 1:51:47
  Speaker 14: Well, exactly, And I gotta tell you, as a guy, right, like,
• 1:51:49
  Speaker 14: I'm not always good at picking out things in there either.
• 1:51:52
  Speaker 14: I was actually a Kroger one time, but I was
• 1:51:54
  Speaker 14: looking for a specific brand of like barbecue sauce, and
• 1:51:56
  Speaker 14: I'm just sitting there staring at the aisle up and
• 1:51:58
  Speaker 14: down on Finally I just stopped. But I went to
• 1:52:00
  Speaker 14: chat GPT and I took a picture and said, help
• 1:52:02
  Speaker 14: me find this. Right, they'd have picked out exactly where
• 1:52:04
  Speaker 14: it was.
• 1:52:04
  Speaker 10: On the shelf.
• 1:52:05
  Speaker 4: Oh cool.
• 1:52:06
  Speaker 15: Right.
• 1:52:06
  Speaker 14: So again, it's just little things like that, but it's
• 1:52:08
  Speaker 14: you go through and you do it. You're like, man,
• 1:52:09
  Speaker 14: that is freaking amazing how that works.
• 1:52:12
  Speaker 4: See a lot of people are worried that Ai is
• 1:52:14
  Speaker 4: going to replace them in the workforce, but you can
• 1:52:17
  Speaker 4: actually and more and more people are using I A
• 1:52:20
  Speaker 4: in the workforce for whatever they're doing. How can AI
• 1:52:25
  Speaker 4: improve your productivity where you're at right now and maybe
• 1:52:29
  Speaker 4: not threaten you.
• 1:52:31
  Speaker 14: So we're so we're going to talk a little bit
• 1:52:33
  Speaker 14: about that tonight, but I've got another session coming up
• 1:52:35
  Speaker 14: on Tuesday where we're going to talk a lot more
• 1:52:37
  Speaker 14: about AI kind of in the job. But I'll tell you,
• 1:52:40
  Speaker 14: you know, if you go back and you look at
• 1:52:41
  Speaker 14: we've you know, humans, We've we've added about seven and
• 1:52:44
  Speaker 14: seven and a half billion people right over the last
• 1:52:46
  Speaker 14: you know, two hundred years right across the world. We've
• 1:52:49
  Speaker 14: not run out of jobs, okay, And so AI, right,
• 1:52:52
  Speaker 14: I see where I think things are going to go
• 1:52:55
  Speaker 14: is that we're not going to go through and be
• 1:52:56
  Speaker 14: replaced by AI. We're going to be replaced by humans
• 1:52:59
  Speaker 14: who use A I. So I think it's an important
• 1:53:01
  Speaker 14: skill that everybody needs to be able to figure out.
• 1:53:03
  Speaker 14: And so one of the best ways to go through
• 1:53:05
  Speaker 14: and start that is to figure out how to use
• 1:53:06
  Speaker 14: it in your personal life and then start to figure
• 1:53:08
  Speaker 14: out how to go through and translate to that into
• 1:53:10
  Speaker 14: your professional life as well, all right.
• 1:53:13
  Speaker 7: And.
• 1:53:15
  Speaker 4: In this session tonight it empower you again. It's empower
• 1:53:18
  Speaker 4: You America dot org between seven and eight thirty with
• 1:53:21
  Speaker 4: Mike Wilson helping you to get better results from the
• 1:53:25
  Speaker 4: AI tools that are out there. We talked about the
• 1:53:28
  Speaker 4: occasional hallucination by AI. Among the things you're going to
• 1:53:32
  Speaker 4: be talking about is how to recognize when AI is wrong.
• 1:53:36
  Speaker 4: Give me an example of yes, yeah.
• 1:53:40
  Speaker 14: So again this goes back to kind of the techniques
• 1:53:42
  Speaker 14: of how we go through and prompt and how we
• 1:53:44
  Speaker 14: ask for information right. And so if we go through
• 1:53:47
  Speaker 14: and ask for a very specific piece of information right
• 1:53:50
  Speaker 14: as part of our prompt and the question that we're
• 1:53:52
  Speaker 14: asking the chatbot kind of on the other side there,
• 1:53:54
  Speaker 14: one of the really important things we want to go
• 1:53:56
  Speaker 14: through and do is say, go through, and especially if
• 1:53:59
  Speaker 14: it's something that we think there might be a little
• 1:54:00
  Speaker 14: controversial or it might be a little bit of uncertainty
• 1:54:05
  Speaker 14: about okay, we want to go through and ask it
• 1:54:06
  Speaker 14: to give us the citations right, which it absolutely can
• 1:54:09
  Speaker 14: do right. And so that means that we're going to
• 1:54:11
  Speaker 14: go through and we're going to get an answer, but
• 1:54:12
  Speaker 14: we're also going to have links that we can use
• 1:54:14
  Speaker 14: to go through and follow up that the AI used
• 1:54:16
  Speaker 14: to go through and help generate its answer. And so
• 1:54:18
  Speaker 14: that's one of the things we really want to do
• 1:54:20
  Speaker 14: to try to avoid hallucinations. And again, what we talk
• 1:54:23
  Speaker 14: about there is in that kind of in the industries,
• 1:54:25
  Speaker 14: we talk about grounding the data, right. So the large
• 1:54:28
  Speaker 14: language model has its own capabilities, but it's going to
• 1:54:30
  Speaker 14: go through and ground its answer and specific pieces of information.
• 1:54:34
  Speaker 14: A lot of times that's just basically searching the web
• 1:54:36
  Speaker 14: to get info, right, And as long as we can
• 1:54:38
  Speaker 14: then go through and click through and view those sources ourselves,
• 1:54:41
  Speaker 14: that's how we go through and verify that the information
• 1:54:43
  Speaker 14: we're coming back is accurate.
• 1:54:45
  Speaker 4: Mike Wilson, this is the key for me too. In closing,
• 1:54:49
  Speaker 4: you're going to share tips on how to protect your
• 1:54:52
  Speaker 4: own personal data and workplace information. And you know we
• 1:54:56
  Speaker 4: have to take mandatory courses here at iHeart to protect
• 1:55:00
  Speaker 4: our workplace information. But any any ideas that you can
• 1:55:05
  Speaker 4: share with us right now on what you'll be talking
• 1:55:08
  Speaker 4: about and are explaining in greater detail this evening.
• 1:55:11
  Speaker 14: Yeah, So I'll give you give you two things on
• 1:55:13
  Speaker 14: that one. So the first is there's a big difference
• 1:55:16
  Speaker 14: in terms of like when I go through and if
• 1:55:19
  Speaker 14: I go through it, I grab one of the free
• 1:55:21
  Speaker 14: versions of the tools. So if I get the chat
• 1:55:22
  Speaker 14: GPT free version or the clogged free version, that kind
• 1:55:25
  Speaker 14: of stuff. Understand that if you're not paying for it,
• 1:55:28
  Speaker 14: you are the product. So when I use those tools,
• 1:55:31
  Speaker 14: everything that I go through and put into the model,
• 1:55:34
  Speaker 14: those those companies are hoover and up and they are
• 1:55:36
  Speaker 14: using that to go through and train their models and
• 1:55:38
  Speaker 14: make them better. So at that point, consider your information gone.
• 1:55:41
  Speaker 14: When we go through and get to some of the
• 1:55:43
  Speaker 14: paid tiers of these, a lot of times they're building
• 1:55:46
  Speaker 14: a level of data protection where they're not storing your
• 1:55:48
  Speaker 14: data long term. And so I think that both for
• 1:55:50
  Speaker 14: a personal standpoint and then when I get into business usage,
• 1:55:53
  Speaker 14: we really want to make sure that we're only using
• 1:55:55
  Speaker 14: the approved tools. Okay, anytime we're working with sensitive data.
• 1:55:59
  Speaker 4: Very good. Again, that's tonight. If you go to empower
• 1:56:03
  Speaker 4: You America, that's just the letter you empower Youamerica dot
• 1:56:09
  Speaker 4: org between seven and eight thirty. If you want some
• 1:56:13
  Speaker 4: lessons in practical AI for everyday life and work and
• 1:56:18
  Speaker 4: you want to rid your mind of this is this
• 1:56:21
  Speaker 4: is horrible and it's taking over everything. It's consumed. It's
• 1:56:26
  Speaker 4: a boogeyman. Mike Wilson can help you out with that.
• 1:56:29
  Speaker 4: It's what he does for a living and he's sharing
• 1:56:32
  Speaker 4: that with you tonight for free.
• 1:56:34
  Speaker 14: Correct for free. Absolutely so. Power You America is a nonprofit.
• 1:56:40
  Speaker 14: You know, they will ask for a donation when you
• 1:56:42
  Speaker 14: signed up, but it's completely optional. I would love to
• 1:56:44
  Speaker 14: see you guys tonight if you can make.
• 1:56:46
  Speaker 4: It all right. Thank you, Mike, Thanks for your time
• 1:56:48
  Speaker 4: this morning, eight eighteen at fifty five KRC. The talk
• 1:56:52
  Speaker 4: station being prepared is everything, but the talk station. Is
• 1:56:58
  Speaker 4: it possible that New Richand Ohio doesn't exist as a
• 1:57:04
  Speaker 4: village after the elections in November, New Richmond residents continue
• 1:57:11
  Speaker 4: their efforts to get the village dissolution on the ballot.
• 1:57:16
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's not on the ballot yet and it's
• 1:57:17
  Speaker 4: getting laid at this stage if they can get the
• 1:57:19
  Speaker 4: petition pushed through and get enough signatures of it. But
• 1:57:22
  Speaker 4: there's a group of New Richmond residents working to have
• 1:57:28
  Speaker 4: the village dissolved or to least put it to the voters.
• 1:57:32
  Speaker 4: And they say this is democracy. So anyway, the village
• 1:57:42
  Speaker 4: solicitor the attorney, Scott Soulman, has addressed the residents in
• 1:57:49
  Speaker 4: the meeting chambers, and Soulman has said I have instructed them,
• 1:57:56
  Speaker 4: as their attorney loss solicitor for the village, not to
• 1:57:59
  Speaker 4: speak on that petition. He explained. Peters, who I guess
• 1:58:07
  Speaker 4: as a resident. His name is David Peters. He's leading
• 1:58:12
  Speaker 4: the charge here, submitted the petition to the village council
• 1:58:17
  Speaker 4: July fourteenth. He said, this is not complicated, this is democracy.
• 1:58:23
  Speaker 4: The community advocate also asked council members to put the
• 1:58:26
  Speaker 4: controversial US fifty two roundabout project on the ballot. He
• 1:58:32
  Speaker 4: explained the petition is based on residents feeling frustrated with
• 1:58:35
  Speaker 4: their elected leaders, including ongoing roundabout project proposal. Alleges there's
• 1:58:40
  Speaker 4: a lack of transparency and discussion between the council and
• 1:58:44
  Speaker 4: the residents. There's a way to solve that. I guess
• 1:58:49
  Speaker 4: nobody in the council's up for reelection in the fall.
• 1:58:54
  Speaker 4: I don't know, but I mean, if they're not actually
• 1:58:57
  Speaker 4: representing you and being transparent about what they're doing or
• 1:59:01
  Speaker 4: doing things without the consent of the village residence, then
• 1:59:06
  Speaker 4: throw the rascals out. Isn't that how it's supposed to work.
• 1:59:12
  Speaker 4: I don't know. Maybe they've tried that, And he said,
• 1:59:19
  Speaker 4: it's just disappointing that there's a lack of accountability and
• 1:59:21
  Speaker 4: transparency in this local government. It appears that most of
• 1:59:25
  Speaker 4: the decisions are being made behind closed doors, and that
• 1:59:27
  Speaker 4: would frustrate me too. But I don't know much about it.
• 1:59:31
  Speaker 4: I don't live in New Richmond travel through it on
• 1:59:34
  Speaker 4: a semi regular basis. We've got friends in Ripley, Ohio,
• 1:59:37
  Speaker 4: and my wife and I often go right down fifty
• 1:59:41
  Speaker 4: two through New Richmond, worrying about the traffic speed cameras.
• 1:59:47
  Speaker 4: My wife always goes. We get to that under overpass
• 1:59:50
  Speaker 4: and we go slow down, get it down to fifty five,
• 1:59:54
  Speaker 4: get it down to fifty. Don't want one of those tickets,
• 1:59:58
  Speaker 4: the photo enforcement tickets. But anyway, there's a group of
• 2:00:06
  Speaker 4: people a New Richmond who don't want New Richmond in
• 2:00:09
  Speaker 4: its current form to exist anymore.
• 2:00:11
  Speaker 10: I guess.
• 2:00:14
  Speaker 4: Can't quite figure any of that out. And if you
• 2:00:16
  Speaker 4: live in New Richmond or in the area and you're listening,
• 2:00:20
  Speaker 4: and apparently no one is because no one's called on
• 2:00:23
  Speaker 4: it this morning, I just am trying to understand what
• 2:00:26
  Speaker 4: you're trying to accomplish by dissolving your village. I guess
• 2:00:33
  Speaker 4: if you dissolve your village and you don't have a
• 2:00:36
  Speaker 4: council or a mayor or anything representing you, then it'll
• 2:00:40
  Speaker 4: just be mob rule, which is not democracy. Actually democracy,
• 2:00:46
  Speaker 4: true democracy are two foxes and a hen voting on
• 2:00:52
  Speaker 4: what's for dinner. That's why our country is a republic,
• 2:00:55
  Speaker 4: not a democracy. And Joe left me with a bunch
• 2:01:00
  Speaker 4: of naked news. Well, I mean the news is dressed up,
• 2:01:07
  Speaker 4: but the people involved in the stories are not. There's
• 2:01:13
  Speaker 4: one from Portland, Oregon, and there's another naked naked man
• 2:01:16
  Speaker 4: accused of ramming vehicles in Tyler, Texas, attempting a gas
• 2:01:21
  Speaker 4: station robbery. And again, it's kind of like stealing a
• 2:01:25
  Speaker 4: tractor trailer or an ambulance. If you're going to commit
• 2:01:28
  Speaker 4: a crime, and the first crime was stealing something large
• 2:01:35
  Speaker 4: that can't really be hidden and is certainly not something
• 2:01:39
  Speaker 4: that you can hide, is probably not the best tack
• 2:01:43
  Speaker 4: to take, And neither is being naked while you're attempting robbery.
• 2:01:52
  Speaker 4: Probably have a better chance of being described or sketched
• 2:01:56
  Speaker 4: in court. Hopefully they get the proportion right. Eight twenty
• 2:02:02
  Speaker 4: seven Gary Cheffin for Brian this morning on fifty five KRC,
• 2:02:05
  Speaker 4: the Talk station. When it comes to your home, trust matters,
• 2:02:08
  Speaker 4: and I trust Brian at the talk station. So the
• 2:02:14
  Speaker 4: question is, what exactly is the American dream? Is it
• 2:02:18
  Speaker 4: owning your own home? Is it being able to retire
• 2:02:23
  Speaker 4: in comfort? Is it being able to afford whatever you
• 2:02:27
  Speaker 4: want to afford at any time? Is it being able
• 2:02:30
  Speaker 4: to send your kids to private school? For me, and
• 2:02:34
  Speaker 4: I think it's different for everybody, but for me, it's
• 2:02:40
  Speaker 4: just being able to enjoy working. I like to work,
• 2:02:48
  Speaker 4: and I'm happen to be lucky enough or blessed by
• 2:02:51
  Speaker 4: God enough that I enjoy people. So I've been put
• 2:02:57
  Speaker 4: in positions, and I give all the glory to God
• 2:02:59
  Speaker 4: and that I've been put into positions where I can
• 2:03:03
  Speaker 4: work and be around people and talk to people, like
• 2:03:08
  Speaker 4: on the radio, but also in person. I've been in
• 2:03:13
  Speaker 4: food service and bar service in addition to my radio
• 2:03:17
  Speaker 4: jobs for the last let's see two thousand and nine.
• 2:03:23
  Speaker 4: For the last seventeen eighteen years, along with my radio duties,
• 2:03:28
  Speaker 4: I have been either bartending or serving people in public
• 2:03:34
  Speaker 4: and I enjoy that and just be able to maintain
• 2:03:39
  Speaker 4: to pay my bills, to buy groceries, to support my
• 2:03:43
  Speaker 4: wife and stay off the streets, have a place to live,
• 2:03:49
  Speaker 4: have a car to drive. I mean, to me, that's
• 2:03:52
  Speaker 4: the American dream, and I'm living it out. It's not
• 2:03:55
  Speaker 4: a white picket fence on a house that I own.
• 2:03:59
  Speaker 4: It's not being able to take massive amounts of vacations
• 2:04:03
  Speaker 4: every year or travel to Europe. That's not my reality.
• 2:04:07
  Speaker 4: But I feel like I'm living the American dream and
• 2:04:09
  Speaker 4: a dream that I could not be living out if
• 2:04:12
  Speaker 4: I were in a socialist or communist nation. Because in
• 2:04:18
  Speaker 4: the United States of America, I have personal freedom, I
• 2:04:21
  Speaker 4: have liberty, I have freedom. Freedom doesn't mean having things
• 2:04:28
  Speaker 4: for free. And that's where the disconnect is with people
• 2:04:32
  Speaker 4: who are this push we see with democrat socialism i e.
• 2:04:38
  Speaker 4: Communism creeping into the American political landscape and a lot
• 2:04:44
  Speaker 4: of young people who feel disenfranchised, who feel like they
• 2:04:48
  Speaker 4: can't achieve the American dream. And like I said, it's
• 2:04:51
  Speaker 4: kind of different for everybody what that dream is, but
• 2:04:53
  Speaker 4: it's all tied in to this grand experiment that's now
• 2:04:58
  Speaker 4: two hundred and fifty years old called the United States
• 2:05:00
  Speaker 4: of America, that has a constitution that has a form
• 2:05:05
  Speaker 4: of government that has succeeded and replenished itself and made
• 2:05:13
  Speaker 4: itself better over time. You know, the American dream is
• 2:05:22
  Speaker 4: not taxation without representation. It's not having someone else in
• 2:05:27
  Speaker 4: a position of power control all of the wealth and
• 2:05:29
  Speaker 4: tell you what you're going to make and where you're
• 2:05:32
  Speaker 4: going to live, and what you're going to eat and
• 2:05:38
  Speaker 4: how you're going to power your devices. But the people
• 2:05:44
  Speaker 4: who are pushing this leftist lurch that's going on, this
• 2:05:48
  Speaker 4: Democrat Socialist of America communist push that we're seeing increasing
• 2:05:54
  Speaker 4: and overtaking the what was the Democrat Party, either they'll
• 2:06:00
  Speaker 4: well they're ill informed or they have a mistaken view
• 2:06:05
  Speaker 4: of what freedom means. It doesn't mean someone just giving
• 2:06:09
  Speaker 4: you something for free without working for it. It doesn't
• 2:06:13
  Speaker 4: mean income whether you work or not. It doesn't mean
• 2:06:21
  Speaker 4: a limited number of work hours, who you have more
• 2:06:24
  Speaker 4: leisure time. It doesn't mean freedom doesn't mean any of
• 2:06:29
  Speaker 4: those things. My own personal story is a story of continuous,
• 2:06:38
  Speaker 4: if not hard, but consistent work for what I have.
• 2:06:47
  Speaker 4: And freedom does not mean wishing that I had what
• 2:06:51
  Speaker 4: someone else has without working for it and just saying
• 2:06:55
  Speaker 4: well I deserve it because I'm breathing. Freedom means the
• 2:07:03
  Speaker 4: ability to go wherever you choose to go, at whatever
• 2:07:06
  Speaker 4: time you choose to go there. It doesn't mean someone
• 2:07:10
  Speaker 4: dictating to you how many miles you can drive in
• 2:07:15
  Speaker 4: your car or where you have to live. Those are
• 2:07:20
  Speaker 4: your choices or what you do for a living. And
• 2:07:25
  Speaker 4: what the people who are pushing the DSA in what
• 2:07:29
  Speaker 4: used to be the Democrat Party don't understand. Or maybe
• 2:07:32
  Speaker 4: they full well understand and they're just Marxists and they
• 2:07:35
  Speaker 4: want to make the rest of us suffer along with them.
• 2:07:39
  Speaker 4: What they don't understand is this utopia that they're pushing
• 2:07:44
  Speaker 4: of free education, free health care, government run grocery stores,
• 2:07:53
  Speaker 4: a guaranteed income, free housing. Isn't freedom. They don't get it.
• 2:08:07
  Speaker 4: I've I've worked a job doing something ever since I
• 2:08:13
  Speaker 4: was sixteen, so it's been almost fifty years. And I
• 2:08:19
  Speaker 4: tell people quite often my retirement plan is death because
• 2:08:22
  Speaker 4: I like to work. Some people don't like to work,
• 2:08:25
  Speaker 4: or don't think that because some billionaire exists somewhere, they've
• 2:08:31
  Speaker 4: got what you should have. We'll run down the schedule
• 2:08:37
  Speaker 4: and take your phone calls as we fill out the
• 2:08:39
  Speaker 4: rest of the morning. Five one, three, seven, four, nine,
• 2:08:42
  Speaker 4: fifty five hundred. Gary Jeffin for Brian this morning on
• 2:08:45
  Speaker 4: fifty five KRC, the talk station.
• 2:08:48
  Speaker 1: With a spitit of seventeen seve Hawks station.
• 2:08:51
  Speaker 4: What do you say we take some phone calls. Let's
• 2:08:53
  Speaker 4: go to Jim first. Jim, you're on fifty five KRC.
• 2:08:56
  Speaker 4: How you doing it?
• 2:08:58
  Speaker 2: Oh?
• 2:08:58
  Speaker 20: Well, hey, thank you for taking my call.
• 2:09:00
  Speaker 13: How are you?
• 2:09:01
  Speaker 4: I'm well, I'm well, thank you, I'm working.
• 2:09:03
  Speaker 13: I love it.
• 2:09:06
  Speaker 20: Yeah, I'm with you there. I really appreciate your comments.
• 2:09:11
  Speaker 20: You know, I've been working since I was twelve. I've
• 2:09:15
  Speaker 20: got a full time job since I was a sixteen
• 2:09:17
  Speaker 20: year old kid.
• 2:09:17
  Speaker 13: I worked.
• 2:09:19
  Speaker 20: I go to school from eight to three and worked
• 2:09:21
  Speaker 20: from three thirty to eleven thirty at night. And I
• 2:09:24
  Speaker 20: actually started college with money I made working in high school.
• 2:09:30
  Speaker 20: So you know, I came from, you know, pretty poor circumstances,
• 2:09:34
  Speaker 20: and I ended up getting a master's degree. You know,
• 2:09:38
  Speaker 20: at this point, I'm a self made millionaire. I I
• 2:09:42
  Speaker 20: think something that you said really resonated with me. I've
• 2:09:48
  Speaker 20: worked with a lot of young people over the years.
• 2:09:50
  Speaker 20: You know, quite a number have explained to me how
• 2:09:55
  Speaker 20: much that they have college has become, you know, and
• 2:09:59
  Speaker 20: these are all like college students are working as interns.
• 2:10:02
  Speaker 20: College has become so incredibly expensive, to the point that
• 2:10:07
  Speaker 20: you know, for my own kids, I've asked them to
• 2:10:11
  Speaker 20: seriously consider the trades. There's there's so many things that
• 2:10:17
  Speaker 20: are going on right now that just weren't factors for
• 2:10:20
  Speaker 20: me when I was their age, right, the incredible cost
• 2:10:23
  Speaker 20: of living, the incredible cost of housing, the incredible cost.
• 2:10:28
  Speaker 13: Of higher education.
• 2:10:30
  Speaker 11: And I think one thing that's.
• 2:10:33
  Speaker 20: Lost among the younger generation, these folks that are now
• 2:10:38
  Speaker 20: looking towards the Democratic Socialists, that is not.
• 2:10:42
  Speaker 10: The answer, right, That is not the answer.
• 2:10:44
  Speaker 20: I mean, let's be honest, but they need to be told,
• 2:10:50
  Speaker 20: don't take anybody's word for this. Look at the arguments
• 2:10:54
  Speaker 20: on both sides, because I'm telling you there's misinformation coming
• 2:10:57
  Speaker 20: from both sides. The truth is, this is the honest truth.
• 2:11:02
  Speaker 20: I've been up at the state House. I've talked to
• 2:11:04
  Speaker 20: plenty of people. There are people doing things that are
• 2:11:07
  Speaker 20: not in our best interests, that have a d N
• 2:11:09
  Speaker 20: and R after their after their name. Sure, and neither
• 2:11:13
  Speaker 20: neither party right now, whether we're talking about local, state
• 2:11:18
  Speaker 20: or national, it's really operating in our best interest.
• 2:11:23
  Speaker 4: Very few, but there are still those people. And and
• 2:11:28
  Speaker 4: if if the Democrats socialists are pointing to the fact
• 2:11:31
  Speaker 4: that our system is broken, maybe it is. But what
• 2:11:34
  Speaker 4: they're preaching, what they're what they're pitching, is certainly not
• 2:11:39
  Speaker 4: the answer. We've got plenty of empirical evidence that socialism
• 2:11:42
  Speaker 4: slash communism hasn't worked anywhere it's been tried. In fact,
• 2:11:46
  Speaker 4: it's been responsible for more than one hundred million deaths
• 2:11:49
  Speaker 4: over the last one hundred years. Jim, so, uh, because
• 2:11:54
  Speaker 4: maybe our system needs a retooling, that is not the
• 2:11:59
  Speaker 4: retooling we need, would you agree, Yeah, Well, I.
• 2:12:03
  Speaker 20: Mean obviously, I mean we can look at the track
• 2:12:06
  Speaker 20: record for socialism and we know it's not going to
• 2:12:08
  Speaker 20: bring benefit for anybody.
• 2:12:10
  Speaker 10: I mean that much as obvious.
• 2:12:11
  Speaker 15: Right.
• 2:12:12
  Speaker 20: And then there's another big misconception, and that is this
• 2:12:17
  Speaker 20: theory that somebody being a billionaire.
• 2:12:20
  Speaker 13: Is to take.
• 2:12:23
  Speaker 12: In I tie.
• 2:12:24
  Speaker 10: And the reality is when people out.
• 2:12:26
  Speaker 20: There, you know, I don't want to name any of them,
• 2:12:28
  Speaker 20: but you know, the multi billionaires out there are making
• 2:12:31
  Speaker 20: incredible amounts of money. They're just expanding the economy and
• 2:12:35
  Speaker 20: other people are going to benefit from that.
• 2:12:37
  Speaker 12: Ye.
• 2:12:37
  Speaker 20: So, you know, truly and honestly, as we as a
• 2:12:41
  Speaker 20: nation are promoting people, organizations, individuals who are you going
• 2:12:48
  Speaker 20: to bring forth ideas they're going to be incredibly beneficial.
• 2:12:52
  Speaker 20: The reality is that our country benefits. Now, all that
• 2:12:55
  Speaker 20: having been said, you know, what's the answer. How do
• 2:12:59
  Speaker 20: we fix this problem? I don't know that I really
• 2:13:02
  Speaker 20: have the answer, but I think that on both sides,
• 2:13:05
  Speaker 20: things that have been tried have not worked. I mean,
• 2:13:08
  Speaker 20: I think back to what I've seen in my lifetime.
• 2:13:11
  Speaker 20: You know, in reality, look at what happened to higher education.
• 2:13:16
  Speaker 20: I'm the youngest of seven kids. When I was a kid,
• 2:13:20
  Speaker 20: my older siblings were going to college, local community college
• 2:13:23
  Speaker 20: for free. I remember one of my older brothers really
• 2:13:27
  Speaker 20: getting mad when his semester tuition for the community college
• 2:13:31
  Speaker 20: went from five dollars to fifty dollars semester. I remember
• 2:13:35
  Speaker 20: when I was an undergrad, you know, back in the
• 2:13:38
  Speaker 20: eighties and into the nineties, my tuition for a semester
• 2:13:42
  Speaker 20: going from two hundred and fifty dollars to one thousand
• 2:13:44
  Speaker 20: dollars semester. I've got four kids now, it's not uncommon
• 2:13:48
  Speaker 20: for tuition to be twenty five thousand to fifty thousand.
• 2:13:51
  Speaker 13: Dollars for just tuition alone.
• 2:13:53
  Speaker 10: If we look at what happened there.
• 2:13:55
  Speaker 20: You know, why is higher.
• 2:13:56
  Speaker 10: Education so incredibly expensive? The truth is that a lot
• 2:14:00
  Speaker 10: of regulation came out. A lot of these.
• 2:14:02
  Speaker 20: Universities were enchurged to operate like a business, and they did,
• 2:14:06
  Speaker 20: and they started selling degrees.
• 2:14:08
  Speaker 10: Now I have a master's degree.
• 2:14:09
  Speaker 20: I mean, so you know, I'm not one.
• 2:14:11
  Speaker 10: To talk bad about education.
• 2:14:13
  Speaker 20: I'm a believer in education, learning, bettering oneself. But in reality,
• 2:14:19
  Speaker 20: what's being sold now and what's being delivered, I mean,
• 2:14:23
  Speaker 20: it's not really even a better education.
• 2:14:26
  Speaker 11: That's is worse. And yet the cost has gone up exponentially.
• 2:14:30
  Speaker 4: And Jim, I'll tell you, I'll tell you one of
• 2:14:33
  Speaker 4: the things that has accelerated and exacerbated that cost that's
• 2:14:37
  Speaker 4: gone up exponentially is government money to these universities. More government.
• 2:14:45
  Speaker 4: In other words, this free education is making it more
• 2:14:49
  Speaker 4: expensive for everyone. And yeah, you're not getting the bank
• 2:14:52
  Speaker 4: for all of our buck anymore. Eight forty eight are
• 2:14:56
  Speaker 4: breaking back fifty five KRCV text when at work, staying
• 2:15:02
  Speaker 4: in formed people and bartending, you know, working on the radio,
• 2:15:07
  Speaker 4: serving you here, oh Gary, Jeff, thanks for your service,
• 2:15:12
  Speaker 4: and serving you in public at a place called Huddle's Cafe,
• 2:15:16
  Speaker 4: which no longer exists. They're on Mama Street in Newport.
• 2:15:19
  Speaker 4: On June twenty seventh, it closed along with associated businesses
• 2:15:24
  Speaker 4: there on that street on Mama Street in Newport, as
• 2:15:29
  Speaker 4: the family who owned these businesses sold them, I believe,
• 2:15:34
  Speaker 4: to the City of Newport for what intents and purposes.
• 2:15:37
  Speaker 4: I have no idea and I won't comment on it
• 2:15:39
  Speaker 4: right now. I do have some thoughts about that, but
• 2:15:42
  Speaker 4: in any event, I had to scramble and find something
• 2:15:45
  Speaker 4: else to do so, because I have a reputation that's
• 2:15:53
  Speaker 4: not been tarnished but enhanced by my sixteen and a
• 2:15:57
  Speaker 4: half years behind a tap at huddles and serving people.
• 2:16:04
  Speaker 4: I had some other opportunities and I've grasped on to those.
• 2:16:07
  Speaker 4: One of those is at a place called the Crow's Nest,
• 2:16:10
  Speaker 4: which is West Price Hill at the end of West
• 2:16:13
  Speaker 4: eighth in Cincinnati, where God willing, I'll be working every
• 2:16:19
  Speaker 4: Tuesday during the day in case you're out and about,
• 2:16:22
  Speaker 4: I'd love to have you stop by and see me.
• 2:16:26
  Speaker 4: I'm also a place called the Sitting Bull, which is
• 2:16:29
  Speaker 4: another bar in Southgate, Kentucky. Every Wednesday and early Saturday
• 2:16:35
  Speaker 4: morning like eleven to two, and today I will be
• 2:16:41
  Speaker 4: at Strong's Brick Oven Pizza there in Newport, serving food
• 2:16:47
  Speaker 4: and maybe a beer or two during the day from
• 2:16:50
  Speaker 4: eleven to five. And my point in mentioning all of that,
• 2:16:53
  Speaker 4: other than shameless shilling for my other job in hopes
• 2:16:58
  Speaker 4: that you might stop buy and say hello at some
• 2:17:01
  Speaker 4: point and be a customer of mine, is that the
• 2:17:08
  Speaker 4: contrast between people who seemingly don't want to work, or
• 2:17:13
  Speaker 4: they don't want to do something that's beneath them for
• 2:17:16
  Speaker 4: their college degree, or it's just not right for me.
• 2:17:23
  Speaker 4: There are plenty of jobs out there, and we found
• 2:17:26
  Speaker 4: out yesterday that the labor participation rate in this country
• 2:17:30
  Speaker 4: has fallen to below we haven't seen since COVID sixty
• 2:17:34
  Speaker 4: one point five percent. That means almost forty percent of
• 2:17:38
  Speaker 4: the able bodied working population is not working, and that's ridiculous.
• 2:17:48
  Speaker 4: You don't always get as lucky or as blessed by
• 2:17:51
  Speaker 4: God as I have to do things that I actually enjoy.
• 2:17:56
  Speaker 4: But still there's work there to be had, and you
• 2:18:00
  Speaker 4: shouldn't rely on someone else to work and then give
• 2:18:06
  Speaker 4: you their money. I'm not a billionaire. I'm not a millionaire.
• 2:18:12
  Speaker 4: I'm just a hard work and slub who happens to
• 2:18:15
  Speaker 4: be lucky enough to have been on the radio now
• 2:18:18
  Speaker 4: for forty six years somewhere, and I'm glad you allowed
• 2:18:22
  Speaker 4: me to be on the radio, and iHeartMedia allowed me
• 2:18:25
  Speaker 4: to be on the radio here this morning. I plan
• 2:18:28
  Speaker 4: on being here tomorrow morning again by the will of God,
• 2:18:33
  Speaker 4: from five to nine am, and I'll talk to you.
• 2:18:37
  Speaker 4: Then Dave Hatter will join us for the Friday Tech
• 2:18:39
  Speaker 4: talk that we usually do, and at eight thirty Michelle
• 2:18:43
  Speaker 4: Steve who was a homeless advocate and her solutions are
• 2:18:48
  Speaker 4: not the solutions that have failed in places like New
• 2:18:52
  Speaker 4: York and California. These may have a chance to actually work,
• 2:18:58
  Speaker 4: so in any event, until then, God bless. Glenn Beck
• 2:19:04
  Speaker 4: is up next on fifty five KRC, the talk station
• 2:19:08
  Speaker 4: we put the app in
