- 1:56Speaker 3: drug store end. So I am hopped up on day
- 2:00Speaker 3: quill recola and something called throat coat tea. So I

- 5:27Speaker 3: Golden Age. Hal Trump saved America? All right, Can we
- 5:31Speaker 3: talk about Abdul l Sied for just a moment. Abdul
- 5:36Speaker 3: al sayed, So, this guy's running for office in Michigan,
- 5:41Speaker 3: and this guy is all the rails. He hates America.
- 5:44Speaker 3: He says that we were founded on racism. This guy
- 5:46Speaker 3: could very well be the next senator from the state
- 5:48Speaker 3: of Michigan. And he's now going after football. And here's
- 5:54Speaker 3: what this guy had to say about football. This is
- 5:57Speaker 3: Abdul l Sied, a cut number one place.
- 6:00Speaker 4: Football is very much associated with a you know, particularly
- 6:04Speaker 4: masculine and oftentimes toxic, toxically masculine culture, and so much
- 6:09Speaker 4: of it was about you wanted to be able to
- 6:11Speaker 4: get back up and play for your team, and you
- 6:14Speaker 4: really aren't allowed to show pain or vulnerability.
- 6:17Speaker 5: That's part of the sport.
- 6:19Speaker 3: So he's now saying that football is a sign of
- 6:23Speaker 3: toxic masculinity. He also says that football is also an
- 6:28Speaker 3: example of slavery as well. This guy is off the charts,
- 6:35Speaker 3: so he also wants to abolish the Second Amendment. And
- 6:39Speaker 3: he also has a big problem with you people using
- 6:42Speaker 3: fireworks on the fourth of July. Cut number four.
- 6:45Speaker 6: Plays Allies are Launching is already more bitter. All you
- 6:51Speaker 6: got to do is look at the odds you're already
- 6:52Speaker 6: watching on TV started today. You know, they think that
- 6:56Speaker 6: you want to use my whole name against me, Mike. Listen, man,
- 6:59Speaker 6: if you can't say then name, it's Abdrahman. Keep the
- 7:01Speaker 6: name out your demouth.
- 7:05Speaker 7: I'll be happy to give you lessons.
- 7:09Speaker 6: But they understand that the only way that they think
- 7:12Speaker 6: they can win is to drag us into the mud,
- 7:15Speaker 6: to believe the worst about each other.
- 7:18Speaker 3: Yeah, so so look, here's the deal I had. I
- 7:22Speaker 3: talked about this in my message to the to the
- 7:25Speaker 3: crowd at Calvary Chapel, Gino Hills on Sunday. And I
- 7:29Speaker 3: was very very much alarmed at the rise of Islam.
- 7:34Speaker 3: And as I explained in my remarks, I believe that
- 7:37Speaker 3: Islam is more of a political ideology than it actually
- 7:41Speaker 3: is a religion. You have to follow Sharia law. They
- 7:45Speaker 3: have their own legal system. Now I want to play
- 7:49Speaker 3: and this is from dearborn Michigan. And this is what
- 7:53Speaker 3: they're teaching kids in the in the the the Islamic schools.
- 7:58Speaker 3: And this is why, for example, in Tennessee you have
- 8:02Speaker 3: a lot of conservatives are very alarmed that we are
- 8:05Speaker 3: giving parents school vouchers and those vouchers can be used
- 8:10Speaker 3: to send their kids to Christian schools, Jewish schools, and
- 8:14Speaker 3: Muslim schools. And the reality is this is the kind
- 8:17Speaker 3: of stuff that is being taught in these schools. So
- 8:20Speaker 3: this is an actual Islamic teacher and he's having this.
- 8:24Speaker 3: He's lecturing this group of young boys to take a
- 8:28Speaker 3: listen to cut five.
- 8:31Speaker 8: All this advancement in technology, yet they still haven't figured
- 8:36Speaker 8: out that when you go to the bathroom, they're still
- 8:39Speaker 8: wiping themselves with paper.
- 8:40Speaker 3: He's talking about Americans, all this advancement.
- 8:42Speaker 8: Think about how advanced they've become. They're trying to go
- 8:45Speaker 8: to Mars. They're trying to take over Saturn. They're trying
- 8:48Speaker 8: to do all this stuff. Their cars are trying to
- 8:50Speaker 8: be self driven. Yet when they go to do the
- 8:54Speaker 8: most lowest form of human nature, the call of nature,
- 8:59Speaker 8: they are still wiping themselves and cleaning themselves with paper.
- 9:04Speaker 8: They're uncivilized. Do not be tricked and deceived by their technology.
- 9:09Speaker 8: Do not be tricked and deceived by their philosophies and
- 9:12Speaker 8: their westernizations and their ideas. At the end of the day,
- 9:16Speaker 8: they are still backwards. A law has sent us to
- 9:20Speaker 8: these nations to civilize them. That's why Allah has sent
- 9:25Speaker 8: us to civilize these people. Yet the media makes us
- 9:28Speaker 8: look like the barbaric ones. The reason they don't want
- 9:31Speaker 8: you to be successful is because they're jealous of what
- 9:34Speaker 8: you have. The Christians jealous of what you have. Their nations,
- 9:39Speaker 8: their religions are dying, So what they had to do
- 9:42Speaker 8: they had to change their religion. You don't believe me.
- 9:45Speaker 8: We went to churches and they're now having the LGBT
- 9:48Speaker 8: flags over there. Aouda Belah, imagine your business. Your religion
- 9:53Speaker 8: is dying so much that the only thing that you
- 9:56Speaker 8: could do is go and get some help from the LGBT.
- 9:59Speaker 8: That's just the condition you've become in because their religion
- 10:03Speaker 8: is dying, a loss of Hana Matala has sent us
- 10:06Speaker 8: into the nations to guide these people from the darkness.
- 10:11Speaker 3: Yeah, it just goes on and on. And the idea
- 10:14Speaker 3: that those of us in America who well wipe our
- 10:18Speaker 3: blessed assurance with Sharman, that that makes us somehow like
- 10:23Speaker 3: I don't know, monsters or barbarians is ludicrous. So in
- 10:28Speaker 3: their minds, they actually believe that people who go around
- 10:32Speaker 3: and chop heads off people and marry nine year olds
- 10:37Speaker 3: and ask out a goat to the senior prom that
- 10:41Speaker 3: those that is normal. But those of us who believe
- 10:45Speaker 3: in who believe in freedom and liberty, and those of
- 10:48Speaker 3: us who go to a Christian church and we believe
- 10:52Speaker 3: that we have the choice to follow Christ. You see,
- 10:55Speaker 3: when you look at the Jewish religion and the Christian religion,
- 10:58Speaker 3: that's about life. This this is about death, ladies and gentlemen.
- 11:03Speaker 3: And by the way, that was in Dearborn, Michigan. Now
- 11:08Speaker 3: imagine a generation of young Islamist who are being taught
- 11:12Speaker 3: that sort of thing. Soon, very soon, they're going to
- 11:16Speaker 3: be chopping the hend off, poor mister Whipple. Nine oh
- 11:19Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six. Our telephone number,
- 11:22Speaker 3: that's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.

- 14:37Speaker 13: Every generation must decide whether it will recognize deceit before
- 14:42Speaker 13: it becomes normal. This weekend, Salem News Channels America two
- 14:47Speaker 13: fifty film series presents The Fall of Deceit, a sobering
- 14:51Speaker 13: documentary on government overreach, faith under pressure, and the cost

- 15:00Speaker 13: Eastern on Salem News Channel.
- 15:15Speaker 3: Let me just say this about the Republicans that I
- 15:18Speaker 3: ran into in southern California. Those folks are fired up,
- 15:22Speaker 3: they really are. And the churches in the evangelical churches
- 15:28Speaker 3: in southern California, man, are they plugged in. As a
- 15:31Speaker 3: matter of fact, Steve Hilton and Gloria Romero, they're running
- 15:36Speaker 3: for governor lieutenant governor in California, had a huge rally
- 15:40Speaker 3: Saturday at the First Baptist Church in Long Beach, California,
- 15:45Speaker 3: which is a huge church down there, very conservative folks.
- 15:49Speaker 3: Then Calvary Champel Chino Hills. Those folks are all over it.
- 15:54Speaker 3: I mean they've been electing church members to the school board,
- 15:57Speaker 3: local offices. And the pastor there, Jack Gibbs, he does
- 16:02Speaker 3: not mind one bit talking about freedom and liberty and
- 16:06Speaker 3: issues from the pulpits. So anyway, we're very impressed with
- 16:11Speaker 3: what's going on down there, and heard that from a
- 16:14Speaker 3: lot of folks who drop by getting their books signed.
- 16:18Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
- 16:21Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six.
- 16:24Speaker 3: Here's Caroline Levitt talking about the state of affairs in
- 16:29Speaker 3: the Democrat Party cut three.
- 16:31Speaker 14: And I believe that there are millions of Americans across
- 16:34Speaker 14: this country who see these Democrats.
- 16:36Speaker 15: For who they are.
- 16:37Speaker 14: These are radical extreme liberals, socialists, communists, whatever you want
- 16:42Speaker 14: to call them, Sean, what matters most is their extreme
- 16:46Speaker 14: policy positions. This is no longer the Democrat Party of JFK. Heck,
- 16:50Speaker 14: this is not even the Democrat Party of Barack Obama.
- 16:54Speaker 14: This is a party that has been totally captivated by
- 16:57Speaker 14: these far left extreme liberals, who's so massively raising your taxes,
- 17:02Speaker 14: who support abolishing your police, who support abolishing private prisons,
- 17:07Speaker 14: who support opening reopening our southern border in our nation's
- 17:11Speaker 14: borders to illegal alien criminals all over the world. These
- 17:16Speaker 14: are radical Democrats who support terrible policies across the board again,
- 17:21Speaker 14: taking away your private property, abolishing the police, banning prisons,
- 17:26Speaker 14: and just allowing complete lawlessness and chaos across our country.
- 17:30Speaker 14: We have four years of that under Joe Biden. Thanks
- 17:32Speaker 14: to President Trump and Republicans in common sense policies across
- 17:36Speaker 14: the board, our country is safer, our country is more affordable.
- 17:39Speaker 14: We cannot allow these radical, extreme, far left liberals to
- 17:43Speaker 14: take power. We have steady progress under President Trump right now.
- 17:47Speaker 14: If these radical extreme liberals are given a chance at
- 17:50Speaker 14: power here in.
- 17:51Speaker 15: Washington, d C.
- 17:52Speaker 14: They will try to obstruct this president and turn our
- 17:55Speaker 14: country into a communist talable with every extreme liberal policy
- 17:59Speaker 14: that they try to end.
- 18:00Speaker 3: Well, she's absolutely right there, and they're counting on the
- 18:05Speaker 3: stupidity of the American people to accomplish all of this.
- 18:08Speaker 3: This is such a devious, devious plan. This is one
- 18:11Speaker 3: of the reasons we've seen the dumbing down of our
- 18:13Speaker 3: nation's education system because the socialists know you can control
- 18:19Speaker 3: stupid people. If you asked the average fifteen or sixteen
- 18:23Speaker 3: year old right now, just ask them what rights they have?
- 18:27Speaker 3: You should you should go out there and try that.
- 18:29Speaker 3: I don't think they'd be able to tell you the
- 18:31Speaker 3: average American teenager. And the reason why is because they're
- 18:36Speaker 3: not teaching this stuff in schools. It's no longer a priority.
- 18:40Speaker 3: And that's one of the reasons why you've got all
- 18:42Speaker 3: these people running out there voting for people like zorn
- 18:45Speaker 3: Man Dommi for example. All right, we've got to take
- 18:49Speaker 3: a quick break and we're going to be giving away
- 18:51Speaker 3: another copy of The Golden Age. Call her number five
- 18:56Speaker 3: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
- 18:59Speaker 3: That's not nine o one two six zero five nine
- 19:02Speaker 3: two six. We'll be right back. All right, Welcome back, everybody.

- 19:52Speaker 3: Blackburn will be there also. Congressman David Kustoff is going
- 19:56Speaker 3: to be there as well. So we would love for
- 19:59Speaker 3: you to drop by and say hello. You can get
- 20:01Speaker 3: a book, you can say hello to everybody, and we
- 20:04Speaker 3: would just love love for you to do that again
- 20:07Speaker 3: five o'clock tonight. That's five o'clock Central time, a local
- 20:11Speaker 3: time in Memphis at the Barnes and Noble wolf Chase Galleria.
- 20:15Speaker 3: All right, I want to go right away to the
- 20:18Speaker 3: Patriot Mobile newsmaker line. Of course, we have lots of
- 20:22Speaker 3: big races underway, a lot of primaries happening all over America,
- 20:27Speaker 3: and one of the ones we've been paying very close
- 20:29Speaker 3: attention to is this Senate race who is going to
- 20:33Speaker 3: replace the late Lindsay Graham. Well, we're honored to have
- 20:35Speaker 3: Mark Lynch joining us. Mark, good to have you back
- 20:39Speaker 3: with us. Good to be on toddw Have you been
- 20:43Speaker 3: Mark doing well? And I know you have been hitting
- 20:46Speaker 3: the campaign trail there. This one puzzles me, Mark, and
- 20:50Speaker 3: I just have to tell you, I'm not sure why
- 20:53Speaker 3: Darlene Graham was appointed to that seat. We don't have
- 20:58Speaker 3: peerage here in America. That's something they do across the
- 21:02Speaker 3: Big Pond, and it's it's a little troubling how this
- 21:06Speaker 3: is all playing out. What say you, Well, everybody's concerned
- 21:10Speaker 3: about her eligibility. She did not vote in two out
- 21:14Speaker 3: of the last three statewide primaries according to the rules
- 21:17Speaker 3: of our GOP here in South Carolina. But they made
- 21:21Speaker 3: an exception for her Danny Lee Ford when he paid
- 21:25Speaker 3: his fee and filed, they handed him his money back
- 21:29Speaker 3: because he also didn't vote in two out of the
- 21:31Speaker 3: last three statewide primaries and he was he was determined ineligible,
- 21:38Speaker 3: so he got a lawyer ensued and now he's eligible
- 21:41Speaker 3: and his name's on the ballot. So we've got rules
- 21:44Speaker 3: for thee but not for me going on. And these
- 21:47Speaker 3: are election integerty issues within the Republican Party in our state.
- 21:52Speaker 3: This is this is not unheard of in Republican politics
- 21:55Speaker 3: where they get a little loosey goosey with the with
- 21:59Speaker 3: the rules.
- 22:00Speaker 16: Uh.
- 22:01Speaker 3: And it does seem that they always apply those rules
- 22:05Speaker 3: to protect the establishment candidates and that that's what raises
- 22:08Speaker 3: eyebrows for me.
- 22:11Speaker 2: Yes, I mean, we have enough fights going on and battling,
- 22:14Speaker 2: you know, swimming upstream in this race and everything we
- 22:18Speaker 2: fought for over two years and you know, but that's
- 22:22Speaker 2: just part of it. But we're still in the race
- 22:25Speaker 2: and we didn't just jump in. We're finishing what we
- 22:27Speaker 2: started after Lindsay's tragic death, and we're fighting hard, and
- 22:32Speaker 2: we had a great couple of nights on TV with
- 22:36Speaker 2: the debates, and we did very well and all all
- 22:39Speaker 2: the polling showed we won both of those and that
- 22:42Speaker 2: turned a lot of people towards us that hadn't heard
- 22:45Speaker 2: of us because we were blocked at different groups in
- 22:49Speaker 2: South Carolina and we're allowed to speak in the first primary,
- 22:53Speaker 2: but now they're allowing us with an open seat that
- 22:56Speaker 2: we're all in and we've got ten candidates in place
- 22:59Speaker 2: and we're doing well. People have the option now to
- 23:02Speaker 2: exercise their rights to term limit these career politicians, and
- 23:07Speaker 2: they're seeing that with me, and especially in the debate
- 23:10Speaker 2: and the answers we gave because we were not just
- 23:14Speaker 2: talking fluff. We get to the hard facts with everything,
- 23:17Speaker 2: and we talk with receipts about these other candidates, and
- 23:22Speaker 2: people are very happy I'm in the race and they
- 23:25Speaker 2: have a great option for a true god fearing patriot
- 23:29Speaker 2: this time.
- 23:30Speaker 3: Now you've got other folks like Ralph Norman in the race,
- 23:34Speaker 3: so you also have Russell Fry, Mark Sanford amongst other
- 23:39Speaker 3: more well known folks. What sets you apart from those guys.
- 23:44Speaker 2: Well, again, being a successful businessman, being debt free, being
- 23:50Speaker 2: an ordine ordained deacon in our church at Burnsview Baptist Church,
- 23:56Speaker 2: and knowing what the people say, I'm by the voters
- 24:01Speaker 2: who asked me to run. We're not just jumping in
- 24:04Speaker 2: a seat now that it's easy that Lindsay's gone. We
- 24:08Speaker 2: went up against Lindsay when he was in office, and
- 24:11Speaker 2: we fought hard and spent a lot of money, and
- 24:13Speaker 2: we have a grassroots movement going on and these other
- 24:17Speaker 2: guys are compromised.
- 24:18Speaker 3: You know.
- 24:19Speaker 2: Ralph Norman voted for a bill for three point one
- 24:22Speaker 2: billion dollars to help fund illegal migrants and aliens in
- 24:27Speaker 2: our country, and then he voted against Trump's tariffs for
- 24:32Speaker 2: Chinese solar panel companies, and then later advocated for a
- 24:36Speaker 2: company called Selfab to come in his neighborhood where he lives.
- 24:40Speaker 2: And there's all kind of problems going on there with
- 24:43Speaker 2: the poisonous chemicals that'send that plant in the wrong zoning.
- 24:47Speaker 2: It's a heavy duty, big industrial, nine hundred thousand square
- 24:52Speaker 2: foot plant next to schools and the neighborhoods there, and
- 24:56Speaker 2: there's been over nineteen nine to one one calls with
- 24:59Speaker 2: people leaving that plant, vomiting up blood and having major
- 25:03Speaker 2: problems and he's not dealing with that. And everybody remembers
- 25:07Speaker 2: he was the only one in Congress that endorsed Nicki Haley,
- 25:11Speaker 2: and Nicki Haley's endorsed him in this race, so that's interesting.
- 25:15Speaker 2: And then you know Russell Fry has a reputation. When
- 25:19Speaker 2: he was in the state House, he voted for the
- 25:21Speaker 2: highest tax increase in our state's history, the gas tax.
- 25:26Speaker 2: And so we've got guys that will fold, they compromise,
- 25:29Speaker 2: and that they don't hold the line.
- 25:31Speaker 3: Like I would.
- 25:32Speaker 2: And that's what people see in me, and that's why
- 25:35Speaker 2: I was asked to run.
- 25:37Speaker 3: Mark Lynch running for the US Senate. That vote is today.
- 25:42Speaker 3: There will be a runoffs, right, if you don't get
- 25:44Speaker 3: fifty percent, you've got to have a runoff. That's right,
- 25:49Speaker 3: Lynch for Senate dot Com, Ladies and gentlemen, that's Lynch
- 25:52Speaker 3: for Senate dot Com. We've had Mark on the show
- 25:56Speaker 3: many times before, a great American patriot, great businessman, and
- 26:00Speaker 3: running there in the US Senate race a very crowded
- 26:03Speaker 3: Republican field to replace the late Senator Lindsey Graham. Mark,
- 26:08Speaker 3: We're going to leave it there. We wish you nothing
- 26:10Speaker 3: but the very best, good luck tonight.
- 26:13Speaker 15: Yeah, thank you.
- 26:14Speaker 2: You know my prayers that we all pray for whatever
- 26:17Speaker 2: God's will is, who he wants in this seat, That's
- 26:21Speaker 2: who I want to So we're going to leave it
- 26:23Speaker 2: to him and submit it to him and trust trust
- 26:27Speaker 2: him and his decision. Will said, I Will said, yeah,
- 26:30Speaker 2: thank you, all right, Mark Lynch, everybody on our Patriot
- 26:33Speaker 2: Mobile newsmaker line today, just coming in from the President
- 26:38Speaker 2: making this announcement on True Social This is great news.
- 26:42Speaker 2: The President announcing that a former US Marine, an American citizen,
- 26:47Speaker 2: Robert Gilman, is now coming home. He'd been held captive
- 26:52Speaker 2: in Russia since twenty twenty two during the Biden administration.
- 26:57Speaker 2: So anyway, Trump says that he was talking to Poohu
- 27:00Speaker 2: and Putin agreed to release the guy on a humanitarian basis.
- 27:05Speaker 2: And the President said that Russia asked for nobody in return,
- 27:10Speaker 2: no exchange. And the good news here is that Robert
- 27:14Speaker 2: Gilman is coming home. He is going to be landing
- 27:18Speaker 2: at Andrews Air Force Base tonight in Washington. And the President,
- 27:24Speaker 2: this is sort of funny. The President said, is there
- 27:27Speaker 2: anything you want? Is there anything you need? And mister
- 27:31Speaker 2: Gilman like a red blooded American patriot said I only
- 27:34Speaker 2: have one request, a great cheeseburger, and the President says
- 27:39Speaker 2: that he will provide a great, delicious cheeseburger for Robert
- 27:43Speaker 2: Gilman once he lands tonight at Andrews Air Force Base.
- 27:47Speaker 3: So what a great story there. Well done, mister President,
- 27:51Speaker 3: again making this country great again. All Right, got to
- 27:55Speaker 3: take a break here, folks. Nine oh one two six
- 27:57Speaker 3: zero five nine two six. That's nine oh one two
- 28:00Speaker 3: six zero five, nine two six. This is the Todd
- 28:03Speaker 3: Starn Show. All right, Happy launch Day. I can't believe
- 28:18Speaker 3: I lost my voice on launch day. In Jesus lou,
- 28:22Speaker 3: what are the odds of that happening? Great to have
- 28:25Speaker 3: you with us, and would love for you to get
- 28:27Speaker 3: a copy today of the Golden Age How Trump Saved America.
- 28:32Speaker 3: We've been doing a lot of media hits and we
- 28:35Speaker 3: have a lot more to get to. UH did a
- 28:37Speaker 3: fun segment on Newsmax just a little while ago, and
- 28:40Speaker 3: we really appreciate them getting behind the book. I want
- 28:44Speaker 3: to go back to something we were talking about earlier
- 28:47Speaker 3: in the show, President Trump sounding the alarm on these
- 28:53Speaker 3: these Muslims who are being nominated and winning these Democrat primaries.
- 28:59Speaker 3: Cut number two.
- 29:01Speaker 16: Well, the one thing is we have jihadis being elected
- 29:03Speaker 16: all over the place. We have this, whether it's communism, Jaidism,
- 29:08Speaker 16: it's a lot of friend of mine called up you said,
- 29:11Speaker 16: you know, early you should use the word jihadis because
- 29:14Speaker 16: that's what's happening. And I'm not sure that anybody if
- 29:17Speaker 16: you take a look at what happens and other countries,
- 29:20Speaker 16: I think that's not going to be necessarily the way
- 29:22Speaker 16: we'd want to live.
- 29:24Speaker 7: But when you look at the.
- 29:26Speaker 16: Radicalism and the craziness of the candidates and the stupidity
- 29:29Speaker 16: of what they're suggesting, Let's get rid of the Supreme Court,
- 29:32Speaker 16: Let's get rid of the presidency, Let's get rid of
- 29:35Speaker 16: the Senate. They want to get here. Sometimes I'd like
- 29:37Speaker 16: to get rid of the Senate too, but I don't
- 29:40Speaker 16: say it, and I wouldn't do it. But you know,
- 29:43Speaker 16: they want to get rid of the Senate. They want
- 29:44Speaker 16: to get rid of ideally the House. But they're thinking
- 29:48Speaker 16: about maybe keeping the house. You know, isn't that nice.
- 29:51Speaker 16: These are people that have been not successful. They are
- 29:55Speaker 16: people that have been in many cases span uars. They
- 29:58Speaker 16: come from other failed countries, come here and they tell
- 30:00Speaker 16: us how to run our country. They come from places
- 30:05Speaker 16: like I won't mention because I don't want to get
- 30:07Speaker 16: myself into a controversy, but they come from countries that
- 30:11Speaker 16: are not great. They come from let's say, as an example, Somebodia.
- 30:16Speaker 16: They come in and then they tell us how to
- 30:18Speaker 16: how our constitution, how our declaration of independence, how it works.
- 30:24Speaker 16: It doesn't work that way. And they're not smart, they
- 30:28Speaker 16: have no aptitude, they have nothing going and they're telling
- 30:32Speaker 16: us how to run our country. And I just don't
- 30:35Speaker 16: think it's going to happen. I think that they start off.
- 30:38Speaker 16: Now I may be wrong, but you know, they start
- 30:40Speaker 16: off with a big disadvantation.
- 30:42Speaker 3: Yeah, have you ever really, you know, step back and
- 30:44Speaker 3: think about it for a moment. All of these people
- 30:47Speaker 3: coming here and there very terrible, very terrible countries they
- 30:52Speaker 3: come from. The living conditions are insane. So why is
- 30:57Speaker 3: it that these people would want to come to our
- 31:00Speaker 3: country and then try to turn our country into the
- 31:04Speaker 3: hell hole they escape from. That's a legitimate question. It's
- 31:09Speaker 3: one that needs to be addressed. So I have Look,
- 31:13Speaker 3: we've got to figure this out. But you've got you've
- 31:16Speaker 3: got a way of life that is surging. It is
- 31:20Speaker 3: growing in all Look at what's happening in Texas. McKinney,
- 31:24Speaker 3: Texas has become a flashpoint for all of this, and
- 31:27Speaker 3: the reality is that so many people are they're just
- 31:32Speaker 3: not aware, they're just not paying attention to what's going
- 31:37Speaker 3: on out there in the culture. Nine oh one two
- 31:40Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six are telephone number. That's
- 31:43Speaker 3: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six Parker.
- 31:47Speaker 3: This story out of Arkansas caught my attention. You know,
- 31:51Speaker 3: a lot of football, high school football right around the corner,
- 31:54Speaker 3: and what the teams are. But two A days, three
- 31:58Speaker 3: a days, brutal hot out there, and you have all
- 32:03Speaker 3: of these players and they're getting ready. They're in full
- 32:08Speaker 3: pads now, in helmets, so they want to get hurt. Anyway,
- 32:11Speaker 3: a player over in Arkansas at Mamel I hope that's
- 32:15Speaker 3: the way you pronounce the name of this town, mamel
- 32:17Speaker 3: High School, and the player felt something inside his helmet.
- 32:23Speaker 3: Wasn't quite sure what it was, but he felt something
- 32:26Speaker 3: moving around in his helmet for about an hour. So
- 32:30Speaker 3: finally he went over to the coach as a coach,
- 32:33Speaker 3: I think there's something wrong with this with his helmet,
- 32:36Speaker 3: and they said, well, what do you mean. They go, well,
- 32:38Speaker 3: we I feel something moving around. So the coach is
- 32:42Speaker 3: not the guy. Yeah, the kid was just full of it.
- 32:45Speaker 3: So they took the helmet off and they looked inside,
- 32:49Speaker 3: and inside the helmet was a snake, a two foot
- 32:55Speaker 3: long snake. And the snake had somehow crawled up inside
- 33:01Speaker 3: the padding in the helmet and that's where it was.
- 33:07Speaker 3: I would have quit the team right there on the spot.
- 33:09Speaker 17: I'm stunned.
- 33:10Speaker 18: I would have thought, at least in the first five
- 33:13Speaker 18: ten minutes, just to take the helmet off for a
- 33:15Speaker 18: second and just to check.
- 33:16Speaker 17: But I can't left it on for an hour.
- 33:17Speaker 3: Well checking, It's a good thing you didn't, because you
- 33:19Speaker 3: stick your hand in there. It turns out guess what
- 33:21Speaker 3: kind of a snake it was. It was a cotton mouth.
- 33:25Speaker 17: Oh, it went from bad doors.
- 33:27Speaker 3: That Look, those are dangerous. Those are venomous snakes.
- 33:30Speaker 17: You don't mess with those.
- 33:31Speaker 3: No, no, you don't. I mean he could have put
- 33:34Speaker 3: his hand in there and he could have gotten bitten.
- 33:36Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, it's terrible. So anyway, they called animal
- 33:41Speaker 3: control to come and get the snake, a two foot
- 33:46Speaker 3: long How do you get a two foot long snake
- 33:48Speaker 3: in a helmet. That's what I want to know. I
- 33:52Speaker 3: guess they wiggle around. I don't know. It's all very strange.
- 33:54Speaker 17: This is one of those stories where I have more
- 33:56Speaker 17: questions and answers.
- 33:59Speaker 3: Yes, I have a lot of them. So anyway, they
- 34:03Speaker 3: I'm sorry that I said cotton mouth. It was a copperhead,
- 34:05Speaker 3: which is just as bad.
- 34:07Speaker 17: Doesn't make it any better.
- 34:08Speaker 3: No, No, the officers for Animal Services reading for the
- 34:13Speaker 3: Fox Report, the officers for Animal Services showed up and
- 34:18Speaker 3: they're like, oh, yeah, that's a copperhead. They put the
- 34:22Speaker 3: This is interesting. They actually put the helmet in water,
- 34:25Speaker 3: which is what forced the snake to come out. Wow, unbelievable.
- 34:32Speaker 3: According to according to Fox News, the coaches were really
- 34:40Speaker 3: shocked and they were somewhat horrified. You know, they're going
- 34:45Speaker 3: to get the kid a nickname. Now, I mean snake
- 34:47Speaker 3: eyes or something. They got to get the kid a nickname.
- 34:49Speaker 3: They got to I mean copperhead Joe or so. I
- 34:53Speaker 3: don't know what his dave is anyway, but they say,
- 34:56Speaker 3: you know, and this is what's weird. They find these
- 34:59Speaker 3: cop heads. They like dark areas. They find the copper
- 35:03Speaker 3: heads in purse's engines, backpacks. But this is the believe
- 35:11Speaker 3: it or not, the only time they've ever found one
- 35:14Speaker 3: in a helmet. So there you go. They say the
- 35:18Speaker 3: cotton mouth is the second most been a mis snake
- 35:20Speaker 3: in Arkansas, only behind the rattlesnake. So there you have it,
- 35:24Speaker 3: ladies and gentlemen, the more you know. All right, let
- 35:26Speaker 3: me explain what we're going to be doing for hours
- 35:28Speaker 3: two and three. I'm going to be gurgling a hot tease.

- 38:51Speaker 5: us called nine oh one two six zero five nine
- 38:53Speaker 5: two six nine oh one two six zero five nine
- 38:55Speaker 5: two six. We'll break down some of these big races,
- 38:58Speaker 5: the big headlines that are going on today. But of
- 39:00Speaker 5: course Todd had to wrap up last hour talking about
- 39:03Speaker 5: the snake in the football helmet because I saw that
- 39:05Speaker 5: story as well. And I, for those who don't know,
- 39:09Speaker 5: my biggest, number one only phobia that I have in
- 39:11Speaker 5: this entire world, it's snakes. That's the only phobia. I
- 39:15Speaker 5: lived in Colorado. I grew up there. Originally, I lived
- 39:18Speaker 5: up in the mountains up at ten twelve thousand feet
- 39:20Speaker 5: up in the air out We had bears, we had
- 39:22Speaker 5: mountain lions, we had elk we had black widow spiders,
- 39:26Speaker 5: we had all this crazy stuff. We were too high
- 39:28Speaker 5: for snakes. And I was totally okay with that. Nothing
- 39:32Speaker 5: else bothered me. But snakes, No, can't do that one.
- 39:34Speaker 5: So of course he had to go into wrapping up
- 39:37Speaker 5: last hour talking about the snake story. And now I
- 39:39Speaker 5: got the hev GB's and I can't go outside now
- 39:41Speaker 5: for the next month. I just can't do it. And
- 39:43Speaker 5: I'm an outdoor kind of guy, but nope, nope, can't
- 39:45Speaker 5: do that one. With the heat and the dryness, they
- 39:48Speaker 5: are out and about and they are everywhere all right.
- 39:51Speaker 5: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
- 39:52Speaker 5: Bottom of this hour, we have Josh Jones on the program,
- 39:55Speaker 5: Chief Republican Strategists. We're gonna talk about some of the
- 39:57Speaker 5: latest headlines and of course midterm season. But Tom focused
- 40:02Speaker 5: on the first hour a lot on the radicalism going
- 40:04Speaker 5: on in the country, and I think that's what we
- 40:07Speaker 5: need to focus on because if you've noticed during election season,
- 40:12Speaker 5: people like to well maybe go a little bit more moderate,
- 40:15Speaker 5: people like to play the fringe when they go through
- 40:18Speaker 5: the primary, then bring it back to the center when
- 40:20Speaker 5: they go into a general election. And there may be
- 40:22Speaker 5: an indication a few individuals that are actually wanting to
- 40:26Speaker 5: run for office in this country for a bigger platform
- 40:29Speaker 5: than what they already have in their nice, little cozy
- 40:31Speaker 5: district that's a very safe district for them, that when
- 40:34Speaker 5: they try to branch out to a larger scale, they
- 40:37Speaker 5: have to play a different card, including someone like Alexandria
- 40:41Speaker 5: Ocasio Cortez.
- 40:43Speaker 4: The abolished prisons, abolished police, which is also positions that
- 40:47Speaker 4: have been taken by a lot of the progressive candidates
- 40:50Speaker 4: who have won.
- 40:51Speaker 5: How do you get around that?
- 40:52Speaker 4: Yeah, not positions that are supported by right.
- 40:56Speaker 19: I mean, I think that a lot of these races,
- 40:59Speaker 19: even right now, they'll have a tendency to be nationalized.
- 41:03Speaker 19: But these races ultimately are local, and all politics are local.
- 41:09Speaker 19: My understanding is that is that Francesca Hong has made
- 41:14Speaker 19: clear her present stances.
- 41:16Speaker 15: To her life.
- 41:17Speaker 5: She moved away from right.
- 41:18Speaker 20: She's moved away from it. And I have a local
- 41:21Speaker 20: city councilman that has this saying woke one was crazy, so.
- 41:29Speaker 5: Woke one apparently crazy. There's now versions of wokeness going
- 41:33Speaker 5: on in society. She mentioned Francesca Hong that one coming
- 41:35Speaker 5: up with the primary tonight in the state of Wisconsin.
- 41:38Speaker 5: We also have the Minnesota governor's race, Michael Lindell, President
- 41:42Speaker 5: Donald Trump endorsing him for that governor's race. In Wisconsin,
- 41:44Speaker 5: we have South Carolina. There's a few major races, but
- 41:47Speaker 5: Francisca Hong kind of all lies around her. The next
- 41:50Speaker 5: big test on how the DSA, the Democratic Socialists of
- 41:54Speaker 5: America are now branching out from their individual nice little
- 41:58Speaker 5: safe territories like deep blue congreg districts like we see
- 42:01Speaker 5: with AOC like the gall in Colorado I can't remember
- 42:04Speaker 5: her name right now that just won and be an
- 42:06Speaker 5: incumbent out there and trying to turn some of these
- 42:08Speaker 5: big But now they're branching out. You got Francesca hung
- 42:11Speaker 5: for the governor of Wisconsin. You have, as Todd mentioned
- 42:15Speaker 5: and talked about last hour, Abdul Lsied, the US Senate
- 42:18Speaker 5: candidate for the state of Michigan. You have James Tallerico
- 42:21Speaker 5: down in the state of Texas. We're going from Gee,
- 42:23Speaker 5: these are relatively safe aias too. A let's try to
- 42:26Speaker 5: run with this as an entire statewide or even nationwide
- 42:29Speaker 5: campaign to try and garner some attraction for the Democratic
- 42:32Speaker 5: Socialists of America. But they're starting to turn kind of expected,
- 42:37Speaker 5: I guess, and not turn from their ideology because they
- 42:40Speaker 5: always have that, but turn on what their campaign tactics
- 42:43Speaker 5: and platform might actually look like. Because you have to
- 42:46Speaker 5: pander to a larger base, you have to pander to
- 42:48Speaker 5: a larger crowd. So what do you do. You begin
- 42:50Speaker 5: talking almost like a Republican. You begin talking about tax cuts,
- 42:55Speaker 5: you've been talking about deregulation, you begin talking about like
- 42:58Speaker 5: individual sovereignty, which is kind of interesting. So we'll see
- 43:00Speaker 5: if those actually work for these individuals. But they have
- 43:03Speaker 5: a long track record of how that's obviously not been
- 43:07Speaker 5: what they actually stand for. So some of those races
- 43:09Speaker 5: that we'll pick on and talk about with some of
- 43:10Speaker 5: our guests throughout the next couple hours on the top
- 43:13Speaker 5: Starn Tradio program here as we go through midterm season.
- 43:16Speaker 5: But this is interesting how they are now trying to
- 43:20Speaker 5: walk away from the wokeness. Remember Alexandria Okazio Cortes and
- 43:24Speaker 5: ilhan Omar and some of these, I mean, they are
- 43:27Speaker 5: the epitome of what woke this was. They're the ones
- 43:29Speaker 5: that brought woke this to the national stage after winning
- 43:32Speaker 5: their races. They're the ones that are bringing in the
- 43:35Speaker 5: socialism in the country. And now they're like, well, at
- 43:38Speaker 5: one point, now they've gotten away from the dismantle the
- 43:41Speaker 5: police and defund law enforcement and the you know, all
- 43:44Speaker 5: these other crazy woke ideologies they say they're walking away
- 43:47Speaker 5: from it. Is it really true? Maybe an indication that
- 43:50Speaker 5: AOC might actually be running for a larger seat that
- 43:53Speaker 5: the rumor is right now that she is well not
- 43:56Speaker 5: only freezing her eggs because we apparently saw that as well,
- 44:00Speaker 5: but she may be either running for the US Senate seat,
- 44:02Speaker 5: challenging Chuck Schumer, or she could be running for a
- 44:05Speaker 5: presidential race in twenty twenty eight and trying to redesign
- 44:09Speaker 5: what her image actually looks like on that grander scale.
- 44:12Speaker 5: That being said, there is a lot that while Congress
- 44:14Speaker 5: is not doing much theirun official recess now house they
- 44:17Speaker 5: got done a couple weeks ago. The US Senate officially
- 44:20Speaker 5: wrapping up last night, they did an attempt to try
- 44:23Speaker 5: and throw the Save America Act out there. They did
- 44:25Speaker 5: not put it to the Senate Florida vote. But now
- 44:28Speaker 5: they're on recess for the next month, and I don't
- 44:31Speaker 5: know what we really saw of it. We did see
- 44:32Speaker 5: the confirmation of Todd Blanche our new acting Attorney General.
- 44:37Speaker 5: We now have a new CDC director, and they passed
- 44:40Speaker 5: a continuing resolution to allow us to continue spending up
- 44:43Speaker 5: until December fourth, so we don't shut down the government
- 44:46Speaker 5: before the midterm season in November. But outside of that,
- 44:49Speaker 5: the Senate really they had their two weeks to do
- 44:51Speaker 5: their mad dash and pass a whole bunch of stuff.
- 44:53Speaker 5: None of it really actually happened. So all eyes now
- 44:56Speaker 5: are on the Trump administration, the executive branch. What are
- 44:59Speaker 5: we going to do through the executive branch to energize
- 45:01Speaker 5: Republicans to actually turn out to vote in the midterm season,
- 45:04Speaker 5: because obviously Congress isn't going to do it, which they're
- 45:06Speaker 5: the ones that are on the ballot, so that might
- 45:08Speaker 5: make it difficult for Republican voters to get energized and
- 45:11Speaker 5: actually turn out. And we're seeing that with the lacks
- 45:14Speaker 5: the lack of voter turnout in the primaries we just
- 45:17Speaker 5: had last week here in Kansas. We had our primaries
- 45:20Speaker 5: thirty eight percent voter turnout for Republicans, thirty eight percent
- 45:24Speaker 5: when we have a governor's race, we have a Senate race,
- 45:27Speaker 5: we had a major constitutional amendment which failed, by the way,
- 45:29Speaker 5: because not enough Republicans actually turned out. Thirty eight percent
- 45:33Speaker 5: Republican voter turnout, and that's about on par with what
- 45:36Speaker 5: we're seeing among other states with voter ten out. Democrats
- 45:39Speaker 5: energize Republicans or not because Congress isn't really acting on anything,
- 45:44Speaker 5: and Donald Trump kind of has to carry the mantle
- 45:46Speaker 5: and lead us into actually showing, hey, look at what
- 45:49Speaker 5: we're doing, which he did, by the way, yesterday when
- 45:52Speaker 5: he signed a new executive voter now focusing on the
- 45:54Speaker 5: health and the MAHA movement. Not sure if you'd seen
- 45:57Speaker 5: this one changing, which very controversial, how dare you change?
- 46:01Speaker 5: Is changing the vaccine schedule recommendation for children in the country,
- 46:05Speaker 5: going from between seventy to ninety vaccines down to eleven,
- 46:10Speaker 5: and doing them at different periods.
- 46:12Speaker 12: And I've seen proof of it where they have a
- 46:14Speaker 12: vaccination that looks like the size of a bottle of
- 46:17Speaker 12: soda poured into a little child's body, and bad things
- 46:23Speaker 12: happen in many cases, in too many cases, because this
- 46:27Speaker 12: is an explosion, This is an epidemic. So at year one,
- 46:30Speaker 12: you should have five separate visits for vaccines rather than
- 46:33Speaker 12: giving them all in the same day.
- 46:36Speaker 5: There we go, all right, So they're giving them at
- 46:38Speaker 5: different times and going down to eleven. The pro vactions,
- 46:42Speaker 5: I don't want to say anti vactions and pro vactors,
- 46:43Speaker 5: because obviously if we're still promoting and navigating for vaccines,
- 46:46Speaker 5: we're not anti vaxx, but just limiting the amount of
- 46:49Speaker 5: things you're injecting into your body, especially for a newborn
- 46:52Speaker 5: or a young child, which to me would be kind
- 46:54Speaker 5: of common sense. We'll see if you agree on that one.
- 46:56Speaker 5: But going down to eleven, which makes sense. Stephen Miller,
- 47:00Speaker 5: the right beside President Donald Trump at that signing yesterday,
- 47:05Speaker 5: talked about big pharma and how we really shouldn't be
- 47:07Speaker 5: doing this as we're not only by the way, not
- 47:09Speaker 5: only cutting back the amount of vaccines, but actually focusing
- 47:12Speaker 5: on research on what are the vaccines doing? Are there
- 47:15Speaker 5: any side effects? And the big question that's the controversial one,
- 47:19Speaker 5: does it cause an increase in autism? When the average
- 47:23Speaker 5: child now went from one in ten thousand children getting
- 47:25Speaker 5: autism to one in thirty three. It has been leading
- 47:28Speaker 5: on this.
- 47:28Speaker 21: Issue for years as well too. It's a really incredible
- 47:31Speaker 21: moment to stand here today and finally see the concerns
- 47:34Speaker 21: of parents around this country addressed. There's been so much
- 47:37Speaker 21: heartache where parents have had healthy children with no issues.
- 47:40Speaker 21: They know they've been pressure into doing things that they
- 47:42Speaker 21: didn't want to do, and medical science has told them
- 47:44Speaker 21: for years that their concerns are not valid. This order
- 47:48Speaker 21: does two fundamental, incredibly important things. First, as we get
- 47:53Speaker 21: off of this ridiculous path of having our children get
- 47:56Speaker 21: seventy to ninety shots.
- 47:59Speaker 17: That is wanton only excessive.
- 48:01Speaker 21: Remember, each and every one of these shots produces a
- 48:03Speaker 21: profound immunological response. So across any large population, if you
- 48:08Speaker 21: give it his shot after shot after shot, you're going
- 48:11Speaker 21: to have vaccine injuries, You're going to have immunological issues,
- 48:15Speaker 21: You're gonna have potentially neurological issues. Secondly, and so important
- 48:19Speaker 21: to you, mister President, is the unbundling of the shot boom.
- 48:23Speaker 5: There we are, all right, So your thoughts is this
- 48:26Speaker 5: going to help with the autism rates? Is this going
- 48:28Speaker 5: to help with maybe overall health in the nation, and
- 48:31Speaker 5: what is it doing for the long term side effects
- 48:33Speaker 5: with cutting back on some of these vaccines. And we
- 48:35Speaker 5: have major health issues, the chronic health, the heart disease,
- 48:38Speaker 5: the major issues we've been seeing. We are moving in
- 48:40Speaker 5: the right direction. Some announcements from RFK Junior just the
- 48:43Speaker 5: past day or so about eating eating clean food or
- 48:46Speaker 5: what he says, eating real food. That's been on the increase,
- 48:49Speaker 5: and that's good news. And with the latest information that
- 48:52Speaker 5: we've heard about doctor Anthony Fauci, aka science himself. We'll
- 48:56Speaker 5: cover all that in a minute, but Let's go to
- 48:57Speaker 5: the phone, shall we nine oh one two six zero
- 48:59Speaker 5: five nine. Let's go to Mark in Winchester, Virginia. Mark,
- 49:04Speaker 5: how are you, my friend?
- 49:06Speaker 16: I'm wonderful.
- 49:07Speaker 22: How are you doing?
- 49:08Speaker 5: Live in the dream?
- 49:10Speaker 22: You got you in Memphis?
- 49:12Speaker 5: Uh No, Actually I'm out in Wichita, Kansas. So we're
- 49:14Speaker 5: moving that studio here temporarily while Todd's on the mend.
- 49:18Speaker 5: That's too bad.
- 49:19Speaker 22: I spent all my primary a babies schools for the
- 49:23Speaker 22: Marines there Memphis, and went back about three years later
- 49:27Speaker 22: and went to upper engineering level school, and then I
- 49:30Speaker 22: was a recruiter there.
- 49:31Speaker 5: I love it. It's a beautiful area for I've always
- 49:33Speaker 5: wanted to go. And I'm gonna have to go and
- 49:35Speaker 5: visit Memphis and go see the Great the Mighty nine
- 49:40Speaker 5: to ninety that he has there in Memphis where their
- 49:42Speaker 5: flagship is and the blow towards. So I'm gonna have
- 49:44Speaker 5: to go and visit.
- 49:46Speaker 22: You need to go. There's a couple I having not
- 49:49Speaker 22: allowed to say it on the air, but there's a
- 49:50Speaker 22: couple of places you need to go eat too.
- 49:52Speaker 5: But I can't say it on the air for sure,
- 49:54Speaker 5: all right. I like it.
- 49:55Speaker 22: I'm just I'm just worried about what's happening because all
- 49:58Speaker 22: the people that Obama brought in here, all the people
- 50:00Speaker 22: that let run in here, and there's I mean, and
- 50:06Speaker 22: all the people come across the border. They're trying to
- 50:08Speaker 22: change our country into the comments country. And the people
- 50:11Speaker 22: that's going to get hurt are the people who are
- 50:13Speaker 22: helping them. All the African Americans are the Black Americans.
- 50:17Speaker 22: They think they're not being treated right, Well, I'm sorry,
- 50:20Speaker 22: you're You're just that's not the truth, you know.
- 50:23Speaker 5: So yeah, well it's really interesting. I mean they're embracing
- 50:26Speaker 5: this radicalism, which they really are, and it's a purity test, right,
- 50:29Speaker 5: I mean, the wokeness really started the purity test of
- 50:31Speaker 5: in as long as you go along with as far
- 50:33Speaker 5: as we want to go, then you're fine. But as
- 50:35Speaker 5: soon as you draw a line and say well that's
- 50:37Speaker 5: too far, now you're part of the opposition. You're now
- 50:40Speaker 5: a maga crazy person, you're extremist on the right. I mean,
- 50:43Speaker 5: they start labeling you and dismissing you completely. The perfect
- 50:46Speaker 5: example is Caitlyn Jenner. Remember, I mean, when the first
- 50:48Speaker 5: whole transgender thing came out, what ten fifteen years ago,
- 50:52Speaker 5: everybody was Caitlyn Jenner is the most beautiful person on
- 50:54Speaker 5: the face of the earth, the most courageous person on
- 50:56Speaker 5: the face of the earth. You know, Caitlyn Jenner made
- 50:58Speaker 5: Time magazine is the most beautiful woman ever. They made
- 51:01Speaker 5: this whole deal about it at the beginning of the wokeness. Now,
- 51:04Speaker 5: when Caitlyn Jenner drew the line and said men shouldn't
- 51:07Speaker 5: be participating in women's sports, you know, obviously still a
- 51:11Speaker 5: transgender individual. Now they've labeled her as a radical, right
- 51:14Speaker 5: wing nut job and they've cast her him whatever away
- 51:18Speaker 5: from the entire movement. Like they continue to move further
- 51:21Speaker 5: and then do a really good job of outing anybody
- 51:24Speaker 5: that doesn't agree with them, continuously moving down that line.
- 51:28Speaker 5: And like you said, there are certain groups the LGBTQ community,
- 51:30Speaker 5: the Muslim, the radical at least Muslim community, and these
- 51:33Speaker 5: others that historically don't get along. But somehow they're all
- 51:38Speaker 5: in this movement together recognizing the opportunity they have to
- 51:41Speaker 5: try and gain more power and influence.
- 51:44Speaker 22: And another thing is the Senate and the Congress shouldn't
- 51:48Speaker 22: go on vacation because there are federal If they want
- 51:52Speaker 22: to do their thing, the states got to pay their way,
- 51:55Speaker 22: not all the rest of us.
- 51:58Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a great point. Yeah, they look I mean
- 52:01Speaker 5: and market. Yeah, Mark, I appreciate the phone call, brother,
- 52:04Speaker 5: I love it. Nine one two six zero five nine
- 52:06Speaker 5: two six.
- 52:06Speaker 16: Yeah.
- 52:07Speaker 5: I mean, look, I know they have their times off.
- 52:08Speaker 5: They have probably a lot more time off than what
- 52:10Speaker 5: you and I would normally have to have time off.
- 52:12Speaker 5: But they come to their districts, and you know, they
- 52:14Speaker 5: represent their districts, so I would say that they should
- 52:16Speaker 5: have time to talk to the people within their district.
- 52:18Speaker 5: I get that, But man an entire month and we're
- 52:21Speaker 5: coming down to the end of the federal budget, which
- 52:24Speaker 5: ends at the end of September. New fiscal year starts
- 52:26Speaker 5: in October. Democrats were planning on doing a government shutdown
- 52:30Speaker 5: to try and put pressure on you, to make you angry,
- 52:32Speaker 5: and then think that they were going to be the
- 52:34Speaker 5: great Gandolf riding down the hill on the great White
- 52:36Speaker 5: Horse to save the day by coming in and winning
- 52:39Speaker 5: the election to reopen the government and refund all these
- 52:42Speaker 5: programs that we've been cutting. So that was their strategy.
- 52:44Speaker 5: Obviously that didn't work with the Senate now passing a
- 52:47Speaker 5: continuing resolutions, so hopefully the House does and passes that
- 52:50Speaker 5: when they get back at the end of September as
- 52:52Speaker 5: well in middle of September when they come back. But yeah,
- 52:55Speaker 5: I mean they have a lot of work to do.
- 52:56Speaker 5: We haven't passed the Save America Act, we haven't gotten
- 52:58Speaker 5: rid of the insider trading, we haven't been able to
- 53:01Speaker 5: expose more of what we want to at the Transparency
- 53:03Speaker 5: So a lot of bills. Plus we've only passed I
- 53:05Speaker 5: think two or three of the appropriation bills out of
- 53:07Speaker 5: the House, not even through the Senate. But we have
- 53:09Speaker 5: a lot of work to do. So they're taking breaks.
- 53:11Speaker 5: They got to going campaign to us. What are they
- 53:13Speaker 5: going to say on the campaign trail as you was
- 53:15Speaker 5: a Republican? Which is the question I want to ask
- 53:17Speaker 5: you today is as a Republican, what will get you
- 53:20Speaker 5: energized to actually go out and vote when we're seeing
- 53:22Speaker 5: predominantly very low voter turnout across the nation nine oh
- 53:26Speaker 5: one two six zero five nine two six. We got
- 53:27Speaker 5: a lot to get to today. Andy, who's your sitting
- 53:29Speaker 5: in for the Todd Starnes Radio program? Back after this
- 53:41Speaker 5: Welcome back to it Todd Stares Radio program. Andy, who's're

- 54:06Speaker 5: book signings all over the place. I can't wait to
- 54:08Speaker 5: get him out here to Wichita candas 'rre'n based out
- 54:10Speaker 5: of for part of his book tour because I know
- 54:13Speaker 5: a lot of our listeners here love Todd Starns and
- 54:16Speaker 5: cannot wait to get a new copy of that book.
- 54:18Speaker 5: All right, we are following some of the stories regarding health,
- 54:21Speaker 5: obviously after the announcement yesterday the Trump administration signing that
- 54:24Speaker 5: executive order on the childhood vaccine schedule, very controversial apparently
- 54:29Speaker 5: for that one. And we now have the text messages
- 54:33Speaker 5: from doctor Anthony Fauci Science himself saying that now the
- 54:38Speaker 5: according to his private messages. In twenty twenty one, the
- 54:41Speaker 5: second dose of the COVID vaccine was causing major amounts
- 54:45Speaker 5: of miscarriages, like a lot, and according to Senator Ron Johnson,
- 54:51Speaker 5: he says, that's just the tip of the iceberg. We
- 54:53Speaker 5: have about a minute before the bottom of the hour.
- 54:54Speaker 5: We'll sneak in a phone call here, shall we. Let's
- 54:56Speaker 5: go to Steve from Houston, Texas on the Patriot nine
- 54:59Speaker 5: to twenty Steve, how are you, my friend?
- 55:02Speaker 9: I'm doing good. A hole stop gets the filling better,
- 55:05Speaker 9: you know. I'm glad they're investigating Fauci. But I would
- 55:09Speaker 9: like to know what incentive the social media big wigs
- 55:14Speaker 9: like Zuckerberg, you know, had by Putt for pushing the
- 55:18Speaker 9: Fauci agenda. I mean back then, if you posted anything
- 55:23Speaker 9: you know that, like if you posted anything about Fauci
- 55:27Speaker 9: doing the gain of function stuff. For if the doctors
- 55:31Speaker 9: that were posting that they were curing people with hydrox
- 55:34Speaker 9: of chloroquin and you know, ivermectin, they would they would
- 55:38Speaker 9: take them off and attack those people. They would put
- 55:41Speaker 9: you in Facebook jail. I mean, there was a big
- 55:45Speaker 9: censorship agenda to push the American people to get out.
- 55:51Speaker 5: Major So it's a really great question. See, I hate
- 55:52Speaker 5: to cut you off early. We got to take a
- 55:54Speaker 5: break here, but I do want to talk about that later,
- 55:55Speaker 5: because you're right, there was a major agenda driven censorship
- 55:59Speaker 5: going on from some of the big tech. Are we
- 56:02Speaker 5: away from that? How do we make sure that doesn't
- 56:03Speaker 5: happen again? We'll do some more of that right around
- 56:05Speaker 5: the corner. So the Todd Starns Radio Program stay here
- 56:25Speaker 5: all right, Welcome back to it, Tom Starns Radio Program. Andy.
- 56:27Speaker 5: Who's your sitting in for Tom Stearns for at least
- 56:29Speaker 5: the next couple of hours here feeling a bit under
- 56:31Speaker 5: the weather, So Todd get feeling better, brother, And it's
- 56:33Speaker 5: always an honor to be able to sit behind the
- 56:35Speaker 5: microphone for you anytime. Nine o one two six zero
- 56:38Speaker 5: five nine two six. Great conversation with the callers, and
- 56:41Speaker 5: if you want to, you can jump on. Steve. You
- 56:44Speaker 5: mentioned the censorship from the COVID nineteen pandemic. We're still
- 56:47Speaker 5: battling that, right, I mean, let's I'll just be completely honest.
- 56:50Speaker 5: Whether you like or dislike. Elon Musk, probably the savior
- 56:55Speaker 5: of free speech to this point, when he bought X
- 57:00Speaker 5: and he disclosed all of those X documents or Twitter
- 57:02Speaker 5: documents and the dump of the emails back and forth
- 57:05Speaker 5: between the heads of Twitter with Jack Dorsey at the time,
- 57:09Speaker 5: and the government telling them this is the algorithm we want,
- 57:12Speaker 5: this is what we don't want, this is the content,
- 57:14Speaker 5: this is misinformation, These are the Drolia Joe looking for right.
- 57:18Speaker 5: That was the whole mindset from the government telling social
- 57:21Speaker 5: media what they can and cannot have as part of
- 57:23Speaker 5: their algorithm. That was insane. You're not allowed to do that.
- 57:26Speaker 5: Then Mark Zuckerberg with Facebook went behind did some what
- 57:31Speaker 5: was it Senate or House hearings whatever, and talked about
- 57:33Speaker 5: the censorship and said that he was being told to
- 57:35Speaker 5: that that wasn't his choice. He wanted freedom of speech.
- 57:38Speaker 5: He didn't want to do any of that. Yeah, do
- 57:41Speaker 5: you believe that one? Probably not. But it's interesting and
- 57:44Speaker 5: now that we have these hearings with Fauci, all this
- 57:47Speaker 5: information coming out what he was doing to try and
- 57:49Speaker 5: win awards and the information he was keeping from us,
- 57:52Speaker 5: and now we found out. Thanks that, Thank god again
- 57:54Speaker 5: to Tulsea Gabbard before she went out as the DNA
- 57:57Speaker 5: director to just do the massive dump of in regarding
- 58:01Speaker 5: the massive amounts of biolabs that we do have and
- 58:03Speaker 5: we've been funding them. And then we find out now
- 58:06Speaker 5: with these leaked to text messages from twenty twenty one,
- 58:09Speaker 5: at the second round of the COVID vaccine was causing
- 58:13Speaker 5: major amounts of miscarriages, and according to Senator Ron Johnson,
- 58:16Speaker 5: it's only the tip of the iceberg. That's wild to me.
- 58:20Speaker 5: We'll cover some more of that here in just a
- 58:21Speaker 5: little bit, but I want to shift gears here. Let's
- 58:23Speaker 5: get our next guest on the program, moving over to
- 58:25Speaker 5: that Patriot Mobile Newsmaker hotline as we get the latest
- 58:28Speaker 5: of what the heck's going on in the world today.
- 58:30Speaker 5: Josh Jones with us today. Josh, how are you, my friend?
- 58:33Speaker 7: I'm good, Andy, how are you doing great?
- 58:35Speaker 5: Really appreciate to jumping on here with us on the
- 58:37Speaker 5: Todd Starns Radio program. I gotta pick your brain. We're
- 58:40Speaker 5: seeing some headlines right now out of Iran where apparently
- 58:43Speaker 5: Iran is giving us demands on what they want with
- 58:47Speaker 5: the escalation of the Straight of Horror moves. They want concessions.
- 58:50Speaker 5: They want us to pay for the rebuilding of all
- 58:52Speaker 5: their infrastructure. This is getting out of hand. Do we
- 58:55Speaker 5: see an end in this conflict at all, Josh, anytime soon.
- 58:59Speaker 7: All right, that's a great question.
- 59:00Speaker 23: I can't say I'm an expert uh in war, but look,
- 59:05Speaker 23: I think the implications here on the political side, uh
- 59:08Speaker 23: are the midterms honestly coming up, and I ran and
- 59:11Speaker 23: I mean they've straight upset it. They're trying to drag
- 59:13Speaker 23: this thing out, uh and use the midterms as leverage
- 59:16Speaker 23: over the president uh in this uh in the State
- 59:18Speaker 23: Department to try and get what they want here. Obviously
- 59:22Speaker 23: that's not something the president or anybody's gonna give into, uh,
- 59:25Speaker 23: but it is an important note as this war, you know,
- 59:27Speaker 23: has drawn out longer than the administration intended to uh,
- 59:30Speaker 23: you know, based on their original messages and kind of
- 59:33Speaker 23: stance on this situation with Iran. So look, it's uh,
- 59:38Speaker 23: it's them trying to leverage of midterms. The president and
- 59:40Speaker 23: nobody in the administration that's going to give in or
- 59:42Speaker 23: should they.
- 59:43Speaker 6: Uh.
- 59:44Speaker 23: But it's something to take into consideration as they're crafting
- 59:47Speaker 23: their message in their pitch to the voters this November.
- 59:50Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly, and I'm glad you went that direction. The
- 59:53Speaker 5: midterm seasons right around the corner we've done very well.
- 59:55Speaker 5: We've been saying for a long time. The Trump administration themselves,
- 59:58Speaker 5: not Congress necessarily, but the Trump administs the White House
- 1:00:01Speaker 5: the most productive administration in modern American history, at least
- 1:00:04Speaker 5: in my opinion. The massive amount of executive orders, the
- 1:00:07Speaker 5: numerous different topics that he addressed in year number one alone,
- 1:00:11Speaker 5: shutting down the southern border, being able to do new
- 1:00:13Speaker 5: trade deals, doing the tariff issue, bringing down prices, getting
- 1:00:17Speaker 5: gas prices back to where they were supposed to. I mean,
- 1:00:19Speaker 5: it was incredible to watch the first year. It seems
- 1:00:21Speaker 5: like things have kind of stagnated because of this conflict.
- 1:00:24Speaker 5: They said originally it was going to be like four
- 1:00:26Speaker 5: to six weeks. Obviously we're well beyond the forty six
- 1:00:29Speaker 5: weeks right now. It's way more complicated with the negotiations
- 1:00:32Speaker 5: and the people that came on board with the Trump administration.
- 1:00:37Speaker 5: The people like Tulci, Gabbard, RFK Junior and others came
- 1:00:40Speaker 5: on board because they don't like long term conflicts. They
- 1:00:43Speaker 5: don't want boots on the ground, and we don't want
- 1:00:45Speaker 5: to be involved in another twenty year war in the
- 1:00:48Speaker 5: Middle East, which I know they don't as well. But
- 1:00:51Speaker 5: because it's gone so long, it seems like it has
- 1:00:53Speaker 5: put a bit of a damper on the enthusiasm of
- 1:00:56Speaker 5: Republican voters.
- 1:00:58Speaker 7: Yeah, I think you're right.
- 1:00:59Speaker 23: Look, ever, people, Uh, particularly since twenty sixteen, Uh, the
- 1:01:04Speaker 23: Republican Party has moved towards you know, ending these forever
- 1:01:07Speaker 23: wars overseas.
- 1:01:08Speaker 12: Uh.
- 1:01:09Speaker 23: And I think a lot of Republican voters and even
- 1:01:11Speaker 23: a lot of Republican leaders were expecting that with this
- 1:01:14Speaker 23: war in the Middle East.
- 1:01:15Speaker 12: Uh.
- 1:01:16Speaker 23: To your point, you know, originally the administration said, oh,
- 1:01:18Speaker 23: this song is gonna before the six weeks. And also,
- 1:01:20Speaker 23: you know, now it's August, we're approaching on the mid terms,
- 1:01:23Speaker 23: and it doesn't look in fact, there's a you.
- 1:01:24Speaker 7: Know, an end in sight, at least not in the
- 1:01:26Speaker 7: short term.
- 1:01:27Speaker 23: So look, people probably do feel misled, and it's definitely
- 1:01:30Speaker 23: put a damper on the enthusiasm side of things.
- 1:01:33Speaker 12: Uh.
- 1:01:33Speaker 7: And that has to be addressed. I mean you have
- 1:01:35Speaker 7: to you have to own that by bullet metaphorically, and
- 1:01:39Speaker 7: you know.
- 1:01:40Speaker 23: Take your pitch to the voters this November as why
- 1:01:42Speaker 23: this needed to happen the way it did.
- 1:01:45Speaker 7: Obviously, everything doesn't get a plan in a war. That's
- 1:01:47Speaker 7: how wars work.
- 1:01:49Speaker 23: So you need affective communicators out there messaging the administration's position.
- 1:01:53Speaker 23: And look, the administration has done a lot, you know,
- 1:01:56Speaker 23: since its conflict has been going on to combat those
- 1:01:59Speaker 23: hot gas prices or you know, other inflated costs because
- 1:02:03Speaker 23: of it, and voters just need to be that communicated
- 1:02:07Speaker 23: to them. Otherwise just go, what's the point in this
- 1:02:10Speaker 23: conflict where you know, it feels like, you know, there's
- 1:02:13Speaker 23: no end in side prices have just gone up as
- 1:02:15Speaker 23: a result.
- 1:02:15Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly. I think honestly, one of the best descriptions
- 1:02:18Speaker 5: and breakdown of what's been going on was when Vice
- 1:02:20Speaker 5: President j d Vance joined the Joe Rogan podcast and
- 1:02:23Speaker 5: kind of really broke down the intricate complications within these
- 1:02:27Speaker 5: negotiations that they have in the different faction with Then
- 1:02:29Speaker 5: I ran once I listen to that, I was like, ah, Okay,
- 1:02:31Speaker 5: you know, it's frustrating and people don't like it, but
- 1:02:34Speaker 5: at the same time I get it. I kind of
- 1:02:35Speaker 5: have a better understanding of what they were going through,
- 1:02:37Speaker 5: and it made it made sense to where we can
- 1:02:39Speaker 5: give them a bit more grace to say, let's get
- 1:02:40Speaker 5: this thing going moving forward, Let's shift gears a little bit,
- 1:02:43Speaker 5: and let's talk about voter enthusiasm. I living Kansas. We
- 1:02:46Speaker 5: just had our primaries last week, thirty eight percent voter
- 1:02:49Speaker 5: turnout for Republicans. We have few more tonight. With the
- 1:02:52Speaker 5: primaries going on, the voter turnout is a little bit low. Traditionally,
- 1:02:57Speaker 5: we have the minority party, which would be the Democrats
- 1:02:59Speaker 5: now do well in midterm season. But with redistricting and
- 1:03:04Speaker 5: with some of the candidates that they're choosing with the DSA,
- 1:03:08Speaker 5: the Democratic Socialists of America, is this going to change
- 1:03:12Speaker 5: the tide and could we see a different type of
- 1:03:14Speaker 5: midterm this season? Do you think?
- 1:03:16Speaker 23: Look, it's definitely possible. I mean as of right now,
- 1:03:18Speaker 23: I mean it's a litt hard to tell. Right we're
- 1:03:20Speaker 23: roughly ninety days out from the election, and it truly
- 1:03:23Speaker 23: is a toss up. To your point, Historically speaking, regardless
- 1:03:26Speaker 23: of the party, the party that's out of power does
- 1:03:28Speaker 23: better in the midterms, which, like you noted, is.
- 1:03:30Speaker 7: The Democrats this go around.
- 1:03:32Speaker 23: So, look, they have a lot of enthusiasm on the
- 1:03:34Speaker 23: Democratic side of the aisle because they see this as.
- 1:03:37Speaker 7: Their opportunity to rebuke the Trump administration.
- 1:03:40Speaker 23: Not saying they're right or I agree with them, but
- 1:03:42Speaker 23: that's why they're motivating factor is to come to the polls,
- 1:03:44Speaker 23: whereas I think a lot of Republican voters don't really
- 1:03:47Speaker 23: have that reason to come to the polls currently. There's
- 1:03:49Speaker 23: not that driving force of you know, I care about
- 1:03:52Speaker 23: this issue. You know, back when President Trump was e
- 1:03:55Speaker 23: lection in twenty twenty four, it was the in verse
- 1:03:57Speaker 23: where Republicans felt like, this is their chance to rebuke
- 1:03:59Speaker 23: the Biden administration, and that's what was driving them to
- 1:04:01Speaker 23: the polls. So, look, Republican leadership in DC has to
- 1:04:06Speaker 23: give the Republican voters.
- 1:04:08Speaker 7: Or reason to come out and vote for them this November.
- 1:04:10Speaker 23: And look, a lot of that is in the One
- 1:04:12Speaker 23: Big Beautiful Bill, but at this point of other things
- 1:04:14Speaker 23: that the administration can and has done, that they can
- 1:04:17Speaker 23: use to drive those voters to the poll. But all
- 1:04:20Speaker 23: that the curve ball that's kind of entered the mid
- 1:04:22Speaker 23: term conversation as of late is the DSA the Democratic
- 1:04:25Speaker 23: Socialists of America. You know, we've always talked about this
- 1:04:29Speaker 23: over years of the Democratic the Democratic Party becoming socialists,
- 1:04:33Speaker 23: but now you're actually seeing that in the candadiates they nominate.
- 1:04:36Speaker 23: I mean, if you look at New York obviously with Bondami.
- 1:04:39Speaker 23: But even going to a swing state that Trump won,
- 1:04:41Speaker 23: like Michigan, the Democrats just elected the most progressive candidate
- 1:04:44Speaker 23: they've nominated there in years.
- 1:04:46Speaker 7: And he won't call himself a socialist, but that's what
- 1:04:48Speaker 7: he is. So look, that's the.
- 1:04:51Speaker 23: Curve ball that's entered the mid terms, and I think
- 1:04:53Speaker 23: a lot of moderate Democrat voters need to take a long,
- 1:04:56Speaker 23: hard look at their party and say, wait a second,
- 1:04:59Speaker 23: this is not the Democratic Party that I've been voting for,
- 1:05:01Speaker 23: you know, for the past thirty forty fifty years, whatever
- 1:05:03Speaker 23: it may be. This is a new party, or at
- 1:05:05Speaker 23: least at the beginning of a new party, that has
- 1:05:07Speaker 23: truly sold out to the democratic socialist left. And that's
- 1:05:12Speaker 23: you know, if you're supporting the Democrats, that's what you're
- 1:05:14Speaker 23: propping up this November.
- 1:05:15Speaker 5: Yeah, and it's a bold move for them, right, I
- 1:05:17Speaker 5: mean they're going from their nice little safe districts like
- 1:05:19Speaker 5: an AOC that has a congressional seat very blue, there's
- 1:05:22Speaker 5: no chance of Republicans going to win it, so they
- 1:05:24Speaker 5: can test the waters going further and further and further
- 1:05:26Speaker 5: to the left to become and part of that DSA movement.
- 1:05:29Speaker 5: But now like you said they're branching out. We have
- 1:05:32Speaker 5: the big race going on tonight for the governor of Wisconsin.
- 1:05:34Speaker 5: That's a socialist. We have abdul lsied, that's you know,
- 1:05:37Speaker 5: an entire Senate for an entire statewide race in Michigan,
- 1:05:40Speaker 5: James Tellerico, for the entire state of Texas. It's a
- 1:05:43Speaker 5: bold move for them to go from their safe space
- 1:05:45Speaker 5: of a blue district where they can push that line
- 1:05:48Speaker 5: to now try to appeal with that mindset to a
- 1:05:50Speaker 5: greater general public. And I don't know if that's necessarily
- 1:05:53Speaker 5: going to work. And when they're asked about it, they say, hey,
- 1:05:55Speaker 5: is the DSA taking over? You know, people that could
- 1:05:58Speaker 5: keep Jeffries and Chuck Schumer and some so those that
- 1:06:00Speaker 5: are like, well, they're working with us because the common
- 1:06:03Speaker 5: enemy right now is Donald Trump. So as long as
- 1:06:05Speaker 5: we can partner to beat Donald Trump, then we're totally okay.
- 1:06:08Speaker 5: Not realizing it's kind of the demise of the Democrat.
- 1:06:10Speaker 23: Party, Yeah, you're totally right, King, Jefferies and these other
- 1:06:14Speaker 23: Chuck Schumer and the Nancy Pelosi tips of the Democratic Party,
- 1:06:18Speaker 23: their silence has definitely hell on this. I mean, they
- 1:06:20Speaker 23: have made it all a deal with the devil here,
- 1:06:22Speaker 23: the devil being the DSA of you know, if it
- 1:06:25Speaker 23: means they get more power, they don't care who they
- 1:06:27Speaker 23: have to work with. The Democratic Socialists of America, both
- 1:06:31Speaker 23: their party platform and just the people that are you know,
- 1:06:35Speaker 23: their nominees or they're in their leadership.
- 1:06:37Speaker 7: I mean, these people are fundamentally anti American, and that
- 1:06:41Speaker 7: doesn't you know, speak to politics.
- 1:06:42Speaker 23: I'm not talking about, you know, a Republican's idea of
- 1:06:45Speaker 23: America versus a Democrat's idea of America. I'm just talking
- 1:06:47Speaker 23: about the founding principles of this country they fundamentally disagree with.
- 1:06:52Speaker 23: So it's a shame and they should be a shame
- 1:06:54Speaker 23: that Kim Jefferies and all these other people aren't pushing
- 1:06:56Speaker 23: back harder against the Democratic Socialists of America because they
- 1:06:59Speaker 23: are fundamentally anti American.
- 1:07:01Speaker 7: And like I said before, that's not about politics.
- 1:07:04Speaker 23: Literally, in their party platform and their agenda that they
- 1:07:06Speaker 23: put out a couple of weeks ago, it was probably
- 1:07:09Speaker 23: about a month ago at this point, literally call for
- 1:07:12Speaker 23: essentially ripping up the constitution and restructuring everything about our society,
- 1:07:17Speaker 23: you know, in a way that is more resembling a
- 1:07:21Speaker 23: Soviet Russia or Cube. Are these feled communist states that
- 1:07:24Speaker 23: have improven time and time again don't work.
- 1:07:26Speaker 7: But for some reason they can't get it through their minds.
- 1:07:28Speaker 5: Yeah, they haven't quite figured that one out. Yeah, I've
- 1:07:30Speaker 5: been joking and calling it because they want to remove
- 1:07:32Speaker 5: the executive branch, remove the US Senate, beef up, you know,
- 1:07:35Speaker 5: the House representatives. I called it the special needs version
- 1:07:38Speaker 5: of the Articles of Confederation. I think that's that's about
- 1:07:41Speaker 5: what we're dealing with right now. We're talking about Chief
- 1:07:44Speaker 5: Republican strategist Johsh Jones. Let's shift gears then to messaging
- 1:07:46Speaker 5: from the Republican side of the aisle. What is the
- 1:07:49Speaker 5: best way to approach this midterm season. Do we go uh,
- 1:07:54Speaker 5: scare tactic and negative and say, look at what the
- 1:07:56Speaker 5: Democrats have become, let's make sure that doesn't happen. Because
- 1:07:58Speaker 5: the polls I've seen show that these scare tactics of
- 1:08:01Speaker 5: calling the words communism and socialism aren't working, maybe because
- 1:08:05Speaker 5: they've been watered down with all the other isms that
- 1:08:07Speaker 5: are out in society and it's not doing enough. Or
- 1:08:10Speaker 5: do we go positive and do we do like a
- 1:08:12Speaker 5: Ronald Reagan esque re election season here and say look
- 1:08:15Speaker 5: at everything that we've done, Look how great things are
- 1:08:17Speaker 5: starting to become. We want the Golden Age of America
- 1:08:20Speaker 5: to get here, and we need your help to do that.
- 1:08:22Speaker 5: What direction of messaging should Republicans take right now?
- 1:08:25Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean it's a good question.
- 1:08:27Speaker 23: Uh, And unfortunately, you know, I don't have an all
- 1:08:31Speaker 23: all sizes fit answer here. It's a mix of both, right,
- 1:08:35Speaker 23: I mean, it depends on the district, depends on like candidates,
- 1:08:37Speaker 23: and depends on you know, what part of the country
- 1:08:39Speaker 23: you're in, because you know, historically, like you said, uh,
- 1:08:43Speaker 23: you know, calling these Democratic candidates socialist communists isn't resonating
- 1:08:47Speaker 23: as much as it has u in the past. And
- 1:08:50Speaker 23: I think a lot of that is across people are
- 1:08:51Speaker 23: largely tuned out of politics across the board. You know,
- 1:08:55Speaker 23: people fuck, they can't trust uh politicians, the news or anything.
- 1:08:59Speaker 23: So they just don't trust any of it.
- 1:09:01Speaker 7: And so therefore tune it out.
- 1:09:03Speaker 23: So I think in fairness though to the Republicans side
- 1:09:06Speaker 23: of the aisle, obviously I'm bias this this time.
- 1:09:09Speaker 5: It's real.
- 1:09:09Speaker 23: I mean, these people are socialists, They're communists that are
- 1:09:13Speaker 23: here to fundamentally rework.
- 1:09:14Speaker 7: America to be more like these dictatorships around the world.
- 1:09:17Speaker 23: Frankly, so you know, you do have to go on
- 1:09:20Speaker 23: the attack with the negative message, which is mind you
- 1:09:22Speaker 23: all factual, but it also is you know, on that
- 1:09:25Speaker 23: positive side of you know, look what we're doing. The
- 1:09:27Speaker 23: lower cost the number one issue across the board, regardless
- 1:09:30Speaker 23: of you're in North Carolina and you're in California, it's
- 1:09:33Speaker 23: cost of living and affordability. If you're not addressing that,
- 1:09:35Speaker 23: people aren't listening to you. So I think Republicans have
- 1:09:39Speaker 23: to take the one Big Beautiful Bill on the road
- 1:09:41Speaker 23: and say, look, we cut taxes on over time, we
- 1:09:43Speaker 23: cut taxes on tips, we cut taxes on social Security,
- 1:09:46Speaker 23: amongst you know, a bunch of other things to save
- 1:09:50Speaker 23: you know, taxpayers money. And I think that has to
- 1:09:53Speaker 23: be the message going into November, but not just of
- 1:09:55Speaker 23: what they've done via the one Big Beautiful Bill, but
- 1:09:58Speaker 23: what they're going to do in the future. Uh, you know,
- 1:10:00Speaker 23: given a majority in Congress.
- 1:10:02Speaker 5: Exactly am into that, which leads me to my last
- 1:10:04Speaker 5: question for you, jos We got just a couple of
- 1:10:06Speaker 5: minutes left, but Congress now on recess until the middle
- 1:10:08Speaker 5: of September. They come back in. They have a couple
- 1:10:10Speaker 5: of weeks until the end of the federal budget for
- 1:10:13Speaker 5: October in the new fiscal year, do you see a
- 1:10:15Speaker 5: government shutdown? And do you see us actually getting done
- 1:10:19Speaker 5: some of the appropriation's process passing the Save America Act.
- 1:10:22Speaker 5: What do you expect to see when it comes to
- 1:10:24Speaker 5: actually productivity coming from Congress between middle of September into
- 1:10:28Speaker 5: election day in November.
- 1:10:30Speaker 23: Yeah, I mean, it's hard to tell. Like I said,
- 1:10:32Speaker 23: they're in recess right now, so do you see is
- 1:10:34Speaker 23: a little bit quiet on that front. So you know,
- 1:10:36Speaker 23: I don't have a hard insider answer, so to speak.
- 1:10:40Speaker 23: But look, we'll see what happens when they get back. Typically,
- 1:10:45Speaker 23: you know, this close to the mid terms. Unfortunately, for
- 1:10:47Speaker 23: better or for worse, they're all tuned into the election
- 1:10:49Speaker 23: right now, the members of Congress that is, so they're
- 1:10:52Speaker 23: focused on, you know, being their district, beating my voters,
- 1:10:54Speaker 23: hearing what they have to say. You know, we'll see
- 1:10:57Speaker 23: if when they come back they pass the Save America Act.
- 1:10:59Speaker 23: I'm not so optimistic given the roadblocks they've hit in
- 1:11:02Speaker 23: the Senate.
- 1:11:04Speaker 7: So we'll see. Uh, we'll hopefully see.
- 1:11:08Speaker 23: Them move on some pieces of legislation because look, Comerce
- 1:11:11Speaker 23: moves slowly.
- 1:11:12Speaker 7: That's by the sign, so I get it.
- 1:11:14Speaker 23: At the same time, if we lose our majorities, nothing's
- 1:11:18Speaker 23: going to get done for the last two years of
- 1:11:20Speaker 23: the Trump administration. So anything they want to get across
- 1:11:23Speaker 23: the finish line, they have to do it now. And
- 1:11:25Speaker 23: we're the guarantee that is actually going to happen while Trump.
- 1:11:27Speaker 7: Is still in office.
- 1:11:29Speaker 5: That's what it's all about. My friend Josh Jones, go
- 1:11:30Speaker 5: check him out on social media, Chief Republican Strategists. We
- 1:11:33Speaker 5: appreciate you joining us here on the Todd Sterns Radio
- 1:11:35Speaker 5: Program today, my friend, Thanks, Andy, Hey, you bet appreciate it.
- 1:11:39Speaker 5: Right there, that again, Josh Jones, Chief Republican Strategist. Great conversation,
- 1:11:43Speaker 5: gan't look a look for. Looking forward to getting him
- 1:11:45Speaker 5: back on the show again real soon. All right, nine
- 1:11:47Speaker 5: one two six zero five nine two six. We'll take
- 1:11:48Speaker 5: your phone calls when we come back. Right around the
- 1:11:50Speaker 5: corner on the Todd Sterns Radio Show. All right, welcome
- 1:12:04Speaker 5: back to it Ton Starnes Radio PROGRAMM Andrew, who's're sitting
- 1:12:06Speaker 5: in today for your post Monday celebration, Thanks again to
- 1:12:08Speaker 5: Josh Jones on the program. I'm optimistic. I know that
- 1:12:11Speaker 5: there's a lot of concern right now and lack of
- 1:12:13Speaker 5: voter enthusiasm from the Republican side of the aisle, But look,
- 1:12:16Speaker 5: I mean, at the end of the day, we always
- 1:12:18Speaker 5: rise to the challenge, right, We always rise to change things.
- 1:12:21Speaker 5: That's why Donald Trump got elected twice three times, depending
- 1:12:24Speaker 5: on how you look at the twenty twenty election. But
- 1:12:26Speaker 5: we rise to the challenge when we need to, and
- 1:12:29Speaker 5: when we realize there is a major threat, we do
- 1:12:31Speaker 5: something about it. That's the greatness of this country, that's
- 1:12:34Speaker 5: the beauty of the nation. And we're starting to push
- 1:12:36Speaker 5: back on this deep state, which is why the deep
- 1:12:37Speaker 5: state is kind of panicking and freaking out right now
- 1:12:40Speaker 5: because they're losing control and losing the dominance that they had.
- 1:12:44Speaker 5: In fact, I don't have the audio clom. I'm gonna
- 1:12:46Speaker 5: have to try and pull it later on. Hillary Clinton
- 1:12:48Speaker 5: was doing a podcast interview. Why she's still in the media,
- 1:12:50Speaker 5: I don't know. She still wants to have some type
- 1:12:52Speaker 5: of influence, but she was on a podcast and it
- 1:12:54Speaker 5: said that once we get rid of Donald Trump, this
- 1:12:57Speaker 5: is her speaking, Once we get rid of Donald Trump,
- 1:12:59Speaker 5: we're going to have to do a deep cleaning within
- 1:13:02Speaker 5: government agencies because of all the quote unquote plants that
- 1:13:06Speaker 5: Donald Jrump Is putting into the different bureaucratic agencies, which
- 1:13:10Speaker 5: is probably the most ironic thing I've ever heard in
- 1:13:13Speaker 5: my entire life, because that's exactly what we're fighting right now,
- 1:13:16Speaker 5: is the entire fourth branch of governments, the deep state,
- 1:13:19Speaker 5: if people want to call it that, the shadow government,
- 1:13:22Speaker 5: the parallel government, the deep state. You know, we talked
- 1:13:24Speaker 5: about this whole censorship that was going on from government
- 1:13:26Speaker 5: bureaucrats telling social media private social media companies exactly what's allowed.
- 1:13:31Speaker 5: During the COVID nineteen pandemic, we had people fighting against
- 1:13:34Speaker 5: Cash Betel and the FBI, against Dan Bongino when he
- 1:13:38Speaker 5: was there with the with the FBI, against the Attorney
- 1:13:41Speaker 5: General's office. When we want to release something and they
- 1:13:43Speaker 5: say no, and there's leaks that come out, and then
- 1:13:46Speaker 5: there's documents that come out, and then people start shredding
- 1:13:49Speaker 5: things and people start hiding things. We're literally fighting a
- 1:13:52Speaker 5: deep state, which is what they've created really since FDR,
- 1:13:56Speaker 5: I mean in the early nineteen hundreds. We're at one
- 1:13:59Speaker 5: hundred year to advantage here that we're trying to figure out,
- 1:14:02Speaker 5: and Hillary Clinton has the Huevos to come out and say,
- 1:14:05Speaker 5: when Donald jumps out, we have to clean house and
- 1:14:08Speaker 5: go line item by line item and employee by employee,
- 1:14:12Speaker 5: because if they were hired by Trump at all, they're gone.
- 1:14:15Speaker 5: You're fired. That's what we're up against. Because I smelled
- 1:14:19Speaker 5: desperation and I think they're starting to realize that they're
- 1:14:21Speaker 5: losing some of the influence and power and control that
- 1:14:23Speaker 5: they used to have, which is crazy, which is why
- 1:14:25Speaker 5: these elections again are so important. We always say that
- 1:14:28Speaker 5: this is the most important election of your lifetime. Well,
- 1:14:30Speaker 5: this is truly your most important election of your lifetime.
- 1:14:34Speaker 5: Every election is the most important election of your lifetime. Well,
- 1:14:37Speaker 5: we've got lots more to get to you. In hour
- 1:14:38Speaker 5: number three, it is Andy, Who's you're setting in for
- 1:14:40Speaker 5: the Great Tot Sterns on the Tot Sterns Radio Program.
- 1:14:42Speaker 5: Stay here.
- 1:15:01Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: America's conservative Blowtorch's.
- 1:15:16Speaker 11: Todd starts.
- 1:15:18Speaker 5: What is up? My friends? Welcome into it. It is
- 1:15:20Speaker 5: the Todd Sterns Radio Program, our number three of the
- 1:15:22Speaker 5: big program today for a post to Monday celebration. I
- 1:15:25Speaker 5: am not Todd Starns. He did our number one, but
- 1:15:28Speaker 5: the cold has settled into his throat. I don't even
- 1:15:31Speaker 5: know if it's a cold, but he cannot talk right now,
- 1:15:33Speaker 5: so he stepped away and getting better and yours truly Andy,
- 1:15:36Speaker 5: who's you're sitting in today for the Todd Stearns radio
- 1:15:38Speaker 5: program for the rest of it. And it's such an
- 1:15:40Speaker 5: honor to do so. Todd, we love you. Get feeling better,
- 1:15:42Speaker 5: my friend. Thank you so much as always for allowing
- 1:15:44Speaker 5: us to step in and do this one. It's always
- 1:15:46Speaker 5: a blast to do so. For by the way, programming
- 1:15:49Speaker 5: note for those that do or are planning to see
- 1:15:52Speaker 5: Todd for the book signing tonight of his brand new book,
- 1:15:55Speaker 5: The Golden Age. He is still planning on doing that,
- 1:15:58Speaker 5: so he feels okay, this doesn't have much of a voice,
- 1:16:01Speaker 5: So if you are out there and you want to
- 1:16:02Speaker 5: do the book signing, you can. You just have to
- 1:16:05Speaker 5: min to him, or you have to read miming when
- 1:16:07Speaker 5: he mimes you. So there is that. But he is
- 1:16:10Speaker 5: planning on doing the book signing tonight, so do not
- 1:16:12Speaker 5: miss your opportunity to go see Todd and to get
- 1:16:14Speaker 5: your new copy of the book The Golden Age, which
- 1:16:16Speaker 5: you can find more information on his website at Todd
- 1:16:18Speaker 5: Starns dot com. But again, my name is Andy Whosier.
- 1:16:21Speaker 5: We are moving the Liberty University Studios out from Memphis, Tennessee,
- 1:16:24Speaker 5: where he is flagships out to one of his great
- 1:16:27Speaker 5: affiliates here, Wichitan's Big Talker KQAM in wichitacandas my flagship
- 1:16:31Speaker 5: radio station and a great affiliate of the Todd Starnes
- 1:16:34Speaker 5: Radio Show. Plenty to get to this hour at nine
- 1:16:36Speaker 5: oh one two six zero five, nine two six. I
- 1:16:39Speaker 5: love all the phone calls with you every time that
- 1:16:41Speaker 5: we're on here nine zero one two six zero five
- 1:16:43Speaker 5: to nine two six. There is plenty to cover, including
- 1:16:46Speaker 5: I don't know if Todd has talked about this or not,
- 1:16:48Speaker 5: but apparently Donald Jump is more than just a president
- 1:16:52Speaker 5: of the United States. He's also an undercover agent. Did
- 1:16:55Speaker 5: you hear? Did you hear? Right? The media? I know
- 1:17:02Speaker 5: he's not bond. He is Trump. Donald Trump with his
- 1:17:08Speaker 5: switcheroo of the air Force one that the media is
- 1:17:11Speaker 5: going crazy about. And for some reason they're mad. Apparently
- 1:17:13Speaker 5: the media mad that they were on the plane that
- 1:17:17Speaker 5: was a potential threat or posed a threat and that
- 1:17:20Speaker 5: he wasn't there with the headlines from CNN showing that
- 1:17:23Speaker 5: he had actually not gotten on a plane and slipped
- 1:17:26Speaker 5: out of a cargo van afterwards, or a cargo was
- 1:17:29Speaker 5: and then went to a different plane heading home from
- 1:17:31Speaker 5: Turkey last month, and it's now become public, which would
- 1:17:35Speaker 5: make sense. First off, why would you tell us this,
- 1:17:38Speaker 5: because if the president is having a threat, why would
- 1:17:41Speaker 5: you tell us that he actually has alternative plans? Because
- 1:17:43Speaker 5: now they know what the potential strategy is if there
- 1:17:46Speaker 5: is a threat. So I don't know why you would
- 1:17:47Speaker 5: tell us this stuff. Second off, kind of funny and
- 1:17:50Speaker 5: well done Donald Trump and his team being able to
- 1:17:53Speaker 5: plan and uh giving up because then by the time
- 1:17:55Speaker 5: they land, he slipped back onto the plane and then
- 1:17:58Speaker 5: walked off like nothing was the problem. No, no one
- 1:18:00Speaker 5: even knew that he wasn't on that plane, and that's
- 1:18:03Speaker 5: what makes the media even more upset. So just call
- 1:18:05Speaker 5: him Trump, Donald Trump. I find that interesting. All right.
- 1:18:09Speaker 5: I'm really excited to have our guests on the program
- 1:18:11Speaker 5: as we go to the Patriot Mobile Newsmaker hotline here
- 1:18:13Speaker 5: on the Tom Stearns Radio program. Between what's going on
- 1:18:16Speaker 5: with the midterm season, the state of the Republican Party
- 1:18:19Speaker 5: in a heck of a lot more. He is a
- 1:18:20Speaker 5: former congressman from the great state of Ohio, where I
- 1:18:23Speaker 5: was born. Former Congressman Bob mgwan, Bob, how are you,
- 1:18:26Speaker 5: my friend?
- 1:18:27Speaker 24: Wonderful Andy, thank you, and you described that perfectly. James
- 1:18:32Speaker 24: Bond of the White House.
- 1:18:34Speaker 5: And James Fond to the White House. Look, I mean,
- 1:18:37Speaker 5: the guy's got to be clever. The team is fantastic
- 1:18:40Speaker 5: and keeping him safe. With how many threats that come
- 1:18:42Speaker 5: into Donald Trump, they need to do this. I just
- 1:18:45Speaker 5: don't know why they would actually release that to the public,
- 1:18:47Speaker 5: so where the enemies would know of his potential tactics here.
- 1:18:51Speaker 24: Well, I wonder if it was you know, it can't
- 1:18:55Speaker 24: be one hundred percent. Certainly it's true. It was in
- 1:18:58Speaker 24: the Washington Post, which makes one. But then they do
- 1:19:02Speaker 24: have sources in that the intelligence community. It leaks what
- 1:19:06Speaker 24: it wants to leak when it wants to do it,
- 1:19:08Speaker 24: and that's what has been It was a real source.
- 1:19:11Speaker 24: Donald Trump has gotten a hold of the intelligence community
- 1:19:13Speaker 24: better than any president in my lifetime. You remember, during
- 1:19:16Speaker 24: the first term, Charles Schumer said, why in the road
- 1:19:20Speaker 24: would he challenge them. They have they can destroy you
- 1:19:22Speaker 24: twelve ways from Sunday and with January sixth and all,
- 1:19:26Speaker 24: we know what they can do. So whether or not
- 1:19:29Speaker 24: this is something the intelligence community wanted to get out,
- 1:19:32Speaker 24: whether or not it's true, we'll find out shortly.
- 1:19:34Speaker 5: Yeah, that is very interesting. I just saw a headline
- 1:19:36Speaker 5: over actually the last couple of days they said that
- 1:19:39Speaker 5: Trump has been the most threatened president in American history,
- 1:19:42Speaker 5: with a potential assassination, attempt to or a threat against
- 1:19:44Speaker 5: him on average about every three to four months during
- 1:19:48Speaker 5: his administration. That's at a time when more especially unfortunately
- 1:19:52Speaker 5: the other side of the aisle, are accepting of political
- 1:19:55Speaker 5: violence as a norm in society. Bob, are we're getting
- 1:19:58Speaker 5: to a point to where we're so that the only
- 1:20:01Speaker 5: way this is going to be resolved is through some
- 1:20:03Speaker 5: form of political violence, because I can't accept that we're
- 1:20:05Speaker 5: actually to that point.
- 1:20:07Speaker 24: Well, where the Democrat Party is going through a catharsis
- 1:20:11Speaker 24: at the moment, they're going to have to decide who
- 1:20:13Speaker 24: and what they are.
- 1:20:14Speaker 11: I mean, if they want to literally do away with
- 1:20:16Speaker 11: the Constitution.
- 1:20:18Speaker 24: They they're nominating people to run for the US Senate,
- 1:20:22Speaker 24: run for Congress, who do not want to have a Senate,
- 1:20:24Speaker 24: do not want to have a president, do not want
- 1:20:26Speaker 24: to have a Supreme Court. They want to have one
- 1:20:29Speaker 24: single poll up bureau. And so we're at a point
- 1:20:32Speaker 24: where the Democrat Party is going to have to make
- 1:20:34Speaker 24: a decision. Is that the road they want to go down?
- 1:20:37Speaker 24: And if so, I think we're going to have a
- 1:20:39Speaker 24: real reform. But if they if they sever it, and
- 1:20:43Speaker 24: they do is the governor of Wisconsin is doing yesterday
- 1:20:46Speaker 24: and today and saying, this person who's running for the
- 1:20:49Speaker 24: Democrat nomination doesn't believe in the country that I have
- 1:20:53Speaker 24: lived in. And so it's an exciting time. I'm optimistic
- 1:20:57Speaker 24: like you are, Andy. I think that they're going to
- 1:20:59Speaker 24: have a hard time selling it. But they are really
- 1:21:02Speaker 24: playing with not only doing away with our president, but
- 1:21:06Speaker 24: then refusing to even pass the law.
- 1:21:08Speaker 11: Here's the crazy one homeland security. They went for seventy
- 1:21:12Speaker 11: eight days.
- 1:21:12Speaker 24: They wouldn't fund homeland security, and they wanted to put
- 1:21:15Speaker 24: in a provision that you could not use the immigration
- 1:21:19Speaker 24: agents to stand.
- 1:21:20Speaker 11: Near a polling booth.
- 1:21:21Speaker 24: Now they claim that illegals don't vote, but they wanted
- 1:21:25Speaker 24: every Democrat in the House and Senate. Everyone is when
- 1:21:28Speaker 24: we go to the polls this November. Every one of
- 1:21:30Speaker 24: those people voted did not permit a government federal agent
- 1:21:33Speaker 24: to attend a voting booth because the illegals would be
- 1:21:37Speaker 24: frightened to see an immigration officer there, and the Democrats
- 1:21:41Speaker 24: might lose votes.
- 1:21:42Speaker 11: So it's a magical time, magical time.
- 1:21:45Speaker 5: It is a magical time. Indeed, Yeah, how ironic. No,
- 1:21:48Speaker 5: they're totally not voting, but we don't want law enforcement
- 1:21:50Speaker 5: to show up to verify if you're actually voting or not,
- 1:21:52Speaker 5: which is why they fought so hard against the Save
- 1:21:54Speaker 5: America Act as well. I know the Senate did a
- 1:21:56Speaker 5: last quote unquote desperate attempt on Monday before they went
- 1:21:59Speaker 5: into their says yesterday, are you optimistic we're ever going
- 1:22:02Speaker 5: to see the Save America Act actually passed, or at
- 1:22:05Speaker 5: least bare minimum bring it to the floor on the
- 1:22:09Speaker 5: US Senate to vote and get people on record on
- 1:22:11Speaker 5: whether they actually support one of the few bills where
- 1:22:14Speaker 5: close to eighty percent of Americans left right in middle
- 1:22:17Speaker 5: all agreed that should happen.
- 1:22:19Speaker 11: Well, your last sentence is the answer that is it
- 1:22:22Speaker 11: could be.
- 1:22:23Speaker 24: And I mentioned that Douglas Marc Arthur from once said
- 1:22:27Speaker 24: that his greatest form of advice came from his father.
- 1:22:31Speaker 11: Who told him the councils of war. When you go
- 1:22:33Speaker 11: into a.
- 1:22:33Speaker 24: Battle, all of the generals get together and they plan
- 1:22:36Speaker 24: the attack. And he said, those councils of war breed
- 1:22:39Speaker 24: timidity and defeat. That is, when you do that, you
- 1:22:42Speaker 24: know all of your weaknesses, you know the strength of
- 1:22:44Speaker 24: the enemy. And he said, so, Douglas, be sure that
- 1:22:47Speaker 24: you don't do that. World War two we had over
- 1:22:49Speaker 24: two thousand generals, but you and I can only name
- 1:22:51Speaker 24: eight or ten because the leaders that actually do it
- 1:22:54Speaker 24: are unique.
- 1:22:55Speaker 11: Now, the Senate has the capacity and what they say.
- 1:22:58Speaker 24: Well, we don't have enough votes, well, you know that's
- 1:23:01Speaker 24: a that's like a coach saying well we don't have
- 1:23:04Speaker 24: enough good players, or regardless we're in a battle, they
- 1:23:10Speaker 24: have a stronger army. What leadership does is that you
- 1:23:14Speaker 24: fix the problem and if you don't have enough votes,
- 1:23:16Speaker 24: you go get them.
- 1:23:17Speaker 12: And how do you do that?
- 1:23:18Speaker 11: Myriad of ways? I think what you should do on that.
- 1:23:20Speaker 24: When eighty over eighty percent, more than four out of
- 1:23:23Speaker 24: five Americans want that bill to pass, to say we
- 1:23:27Speaker 24: only want Americans to vote, and we want Americans to
- 1:23:29Speaker 24: be allowed to prove that you're an American and you
- 1:23:32Speaker 24: can show some id that's a four out of five
- 1:23:35Speaker 24: Americans agree with.
- 1:23:36Speaker 11: That, and the Senate doesn't do it.
- 1:23:37Speaker 24: I believe the majority leader in the Senate to bring
- 1:23:40Speaker 24: that thing up every ten days and let people vote,
- 1:23:43Speaker 24: and let the entire country say, here's the four or
- 1:23:45Speaker 24: five that are holding it up, here's the three or
- 1:23:47Speaker 24: four that are holding here's the two or three, and
- 1:23:50Speaker 24: drive that thing. That's what leadership is about. And so
- 1:23:53Speaker 24: an answer to your question, I think it could be done.
- 1:23:55Speaker 11: Look at the House.
- 1:23:56Speaker 24: The House has such a narrow, narrow margin, and poral
- 1:24:00Speaker 24: Mike Johnson got elected just being a congressman from Louisian
- 1:24:03Speaker 24: minding his own business. They throwed him in the speaker's chair.
- 1:24:06Speaker 24: And every time he's gone up to buy he's hit
- 1:24:09Speaker 24: the ball. He's never missed it once. The Senate collectively
- 1:24:12Speaker 24: ought to be able. They don't need a backbone. Just
- 1:24:14Speaker 24: a couple of vertebrae will do. And if they do,
- 1:24:17Speaker 24: they stand for it. This thing could pass.
- 1:24:20Speaker 5: I love that we just need a couple of vertebrae
- 1:24:22Speaker 5: and that would do is the job. That's a great
- 1:24:23Speaker 5: way to put it, because you're right I give major
- 1:24:25Speaker 5: prompts to Mike Johnson. I don't always agree with what
- 1:24:27Speaker 5: he does, but to have us be so productive in
- 1:24:30Speaker 5: a House with such a slim majority and a very
- 1:24:33Speaker 5: divided caucus, very moderate candidates and electeds that are in there,
- 1:24:37Speaker 5: you know, then you got the truth Caucus and the
- 1:24:38Speaker 5: Freedom caucuss that are in there that are trying to
- 1:24:40Speaker 5: you know, push this more conservative. He's got a very
- 1:24:42Speaker 5: slim margin, and he's been able to pass the Save
- 1:24:44Speaker 5: America Act what three or four or five times I
- 1:24:46Speaker 5: think now and slipping it in different bills. The Senate,
- 1:24:49Speaker 5: you have outside of you know, Susan Collin scared of
- 1:24:52Speaker 5: you know, her election in Maine, so she's going further
- 1:24:55Speaker 5: to the left. You got the Mia Mitch McConnell right
- 1:24:58Speaker 5: now that I mean, I get things tough, but still
- 1:25:01Speaker 5: is even if you get to a fifty to fifty
- 1:25:03Speaker 5: vote with a tie breaker of Vice President Jade Vance,
- 1:25:05Speaker 5: get people on the record, it's really not that difficult
- 1:25:08Speaker 5: to actually get something done in there.
- 1:25:10Speaker 24: And I don't concede that every Democrat is going to
- 1:25:13Speaker 24: consistently do what's wrong when the spotlight is on them.
- 1:25:16Speaker 24: There are two senators in Georgia where that state ninety
- 1:25:20Speaker 24: ten wants to have this thing pass. There's a couple
- 1:25:23Speaker 24: of senators from Virginia in the same condition. We've got
- 1:25:27Speaker 24: Minnesota and Wisconsin senators. Those people the list, if they
- 1:25:32Speaker 24: were put on the line, I believe that we could
- 1:25:34Speaker 24: be not overnight, but the idea that we have to
- 1:25:38Speaker 24: rely upon Republicans to.
- 1:25:39Speaker 11: Do everything is right.
- 1:25:41Speaker 24: There ought to be one, two or three Democrats eventually
- 1:25:44Speaker 24: that we could turn and that just requires pressure. You
- 1:25:47Speaker 24: mentioned about the speaker, though never in history of the
- 1:25:49Speaker 24: United States ever has there been as close a margin
- 1:25:52Speaker 24: as there is now. With one or two votes can
- 1:25:56Speaker 24: destroy everything that he does. Now, can you imagine trying
- 1:25:58Speaker 24: to herd those cats when you only have one or
- 1:26:01Speaker 24: two margins And one of them from Kentucky says I'm
- 1:26:04Speaker 24: going to vote with AOC every time as a critical vote,
- 1:26:07Speaker 24: you can't count on me. So that leaves him down
- 1:26:09Speaker 24: to one and Mike Johnson, who usually a senator a speaker,
- 1:26:13Speaker 24: prepares for a lifetime.
- 1:26:17Speaker 11: Congress from McCarthy from California.
- 1:26:20Speaker 24: When he was in the state legislature in Sacramento, he
- 1:26:23Speaker 24: set a goal to be Speaker of the House in Washington.
- 1:26:26Speaker 11: Newton did it for tending. You put together a team
- 1:26:28Speaker 11: that you build.
- 1:26:29Speaker 24: Over years and years and years, and you have allies,
- 1:26:31Speaker 24: and when they bring twenty seven votes and they be
- 1:26:34Speaker 24: Speaker of the be chairman of the Armed Services Committee
- 1:26:37Speaker 24: of thirty seven votes, and they can be Chairman of
- 1:26:40Speaker 24: Foreign Affairs. Mike Johnson didn't have any of that. He
- 1:26:43Speaker 24: was mined in his own business in his third term
- 1:26:45Speaker 24: in the back row and they said, Mike, why don't
- 1:26:47Speaker 24: you handle this? We haven't been able to get anybody
- 1:26:49Speaker 24: else to do it. And brother, he has done it
- 1:26:52Speaker 24: with just he will go down in history as one
- 1:26:55Speaker 24: of the greatest speakers ever because no speaker in the
- 1:26:58Speaker 24: history of the United States has ever had It's such
- 1:27:00Speaker 24: a narrow margin and the fella never misses.
- 1:27:03Speaker 5: Yeah, I completely agree with that one. And yeah, with
- 1:27:05Speaker 5: all that team building for decades with Kevin McCarthy, you
- 1:27:07Speaker 5: can see how all that one turned out with that
- 1:27:10Speaker 5: short lived speakership that we had. There, we're talking with
- 1:27:13Speaker 5: former Congressman Bob and mcgow and from the great state
- 1:27:15Speaker 5: of Ohio. Let's talk about real quickly the midterm season
- 1:27:18Speaker 5: and going into November. We have more primaries tonight. As
- 1:27:20Speaker 5: you mentioned last week. I live in Kansas. We had
- 1:27:23Speaker 5: our primaries on Tuesday. Last week. We also had the
- 1:27:25Speaker 5: primary up in Michigan, just right close to you. I
- 1:27:27Speaker 5: grew up near the Toledo, Ohio area. I went to
- 1:27:29Speaker 5: school at Bowling Green. I was near that Michigan line,
- 1:27:32Speaker 5: and I had seen the change of the culture in
- 1:27:35Speaker 5: the state of Michigan, which is really interesting to watch
- 1:27:37Speaker 5: and pay attention to. But this Abdul lsied as you mentioned,
- 1:27:41Speaker 5: they're going further to the left in the party. But
- 1:27:43Speaker 5: there is an insurgence of trying to declare war against
- 1:27:46Speaker 5: the DSA among the Democrats, going from safe districts like
- 1:27:50Speaker 5: a safe blue congressional seat where they can kind of
- 1:27:53Speaker 5: test that line. How is this going to fare out
- 1:27:56Speaker 5: for the state wide races of Abdul in the Senate
- 1:27:59Speaker 5: race in Michigan, or James tell Rico down in Texas,
- 1:28:03Speaker 5: or even here in Kansas where we have a governor's
- 1:28:04Speaker 5: candidate wanting to go crazy, or even the Democrats now
- 1:28:08Speaker 5: with the governor's race in Wisconsin, how is that going
- 1:28:10Speaker 5: to fare in an entire statewide race? Trying to paint
- 1:28:13Speaker 5: her to more than just their their their base, and
- 1:28:16Speaker 5: you put your.
- 1:28:17Speaker 11: Finger on it.
- 1:28:18Speaker 24: And I was just in Toledot a couple events yesterday
- 1:28:21Speaker 24: and last evening, and you're one hundred percent correct. What
- 1:28:25Speaker 24: is at risk in this thing, and all of us
- 1:28:28Speaker 24: just stop and think about, in our friends and in
- 1:28:30Speaker 24: our relatives, is whether or not we show up to vote.
- 1:28:34Speaker 24: We just to remind you, AOC is considered a leader
- 1:28:37Speaker 24: of the Democrat Party and a potential presidential Canada, et cetera.
- 1:28:41Speaker 24: She got her seat in Congress with sixteen thousand votes.
- 1:28:45Speaker 24: She didn't win by sixteen thousand votes. She got sixteen
- 1:28:49Speaker 24: thousand votes, our opponent got twelve. When we allow.
- 1:28:53Speaker 11: A district with eight hundred thousand, nine hundred thousand people
- 1:28:56Speaker 11: and only.
- 1:28:57Speaker 24: Sixteen thousand show up and vote, that's where we're these
- 1:29:00Speaker 24: crazy things are happening. You have this new fella from
- 1:29:03Speaker 24: Africa who is the current mayor of New York. He
- 1:29:06Speaker 24: did become a citizen in twenty eighteen during Trump's first term,
- 1:29:10Speaker 24: and now he's the mayor of the largest city in America.
- 1:29:14Speaker 24: What he knows or cares about America and James Madison
- 1:29:17Speaker 24: and Douglas MacArthur and Eisenhower, And he doesn't have a
- 1:29:21Speaker 24: clue what's going on?
- 1:29:22Speaker 11: How did he do that well?
- 1:29:24Speaker 24: Because in Democrat primaries, which is not that many people
- 1:29:28Speaker 24: to start with, and you get the thirteen, it's fifteen
- 1:29:30Speaker 24: eighteen percent of the votes turning out.
- 1:29:33Speaker 11: That means you win with five or six in a
- 1:29:35Speaker 11: five or six way race. So you have just a
- 1:29:37Speaker 11: handful of people.
- 1:29:38Speaker 24: Now, if our country is going to survive you and I,
- 1:29:42Speaker 24: the people that you and I know and care for,
- 1:29:44Speaker 24: pay taxes and wash their car, mother lawn, teach sunday school,
- 1:29:49Speaker 24: coach little league, if those people don't vote this November,
- 1:29:53Speaker 24: we're going to have these weirdos who are nominated by
- 1:29:56Speaker 24: just a handful of folks in Michigan or in Wisconsin
- 1:30:00Speaker 24: or elsewhere. They're going to be driving our country. And
- 1:30:03Speaker 24: we will regret allowing that to happen.
- 1:30:06Speaker 5: Yeah, aymen to that. It's going to be interesting to
- 1:30:08Speaker 5: see in voting. Look, voting and not voting has consequences.
- 1:30:11Speaker 5: Elections have consequences, depend on what you do, and all
- 1:30:14Speaker 5: as long as we turn out to vote, we're still,
- 1:30:16Speaker 5: in my opinion, a center center leaning right nation with
- 1:30:20Speaker 5: the populace. We have to actually make that voice heard, Bob.
- 1:30:22Speaker 5: We are out of time, My friend, I love it.
- 1:30:24Speaker 5: We appreciate it very much. Got to get you back
- 1:30:25Speaker 5: on again soon.
- 1:30:27Speaker 11: Are all the best honored to be with the Andy.
- 1:30:29Speaker 5: Hey appreciate it. Likewise, Former Congressman Bob and gowen from
- 1:30:31Speaker 5: the great state of Ohio. Great conversation. We'll do that
- 1:30:34Speaker 5: again soon. Got to take a break here on the
- 1:30:35Speaker 5: Todd Starnes Radio program. Stay here. Hi had a great
- 1:30:45Speaker 5: conversation with former Congressome Bob McGowan. Appreciate him jumping in
- 1:30:48Speaker 5: here on the Todd Starnes Radio program nine oh one
- 1:30:50Speaker 5: two six zero five nine two six. If you want
- 1:30:52Speaker 5: to jump on with us and chat, we would love
- 1:30:54Speaker 5: to hear from you. By the way, speaking of and
- 1:30:56Speaker 5: I know Todd talked about him in the first hour
- 1:30:58Speaker 5: of the show, the abdul el sayed, Senate candidate now
- 1:31:01Speaker 5: for the state of Michigan and the Democratic Socialists of America.
- 1:31:05Speaker 5: We're gonna have some fun with them here in a
- 1:31:06Speaker 5: little bit with Mary Walters after the bottom of the hour.
- 1:31:09Speaker 5: But as you learn more about the platforms on what
- 1:31:11Speaker 5: they actually stand for. He's recently done an interview talking
- 1:31:14Speaker 5: about how we need to have millionaires because well, we
- 1:31:18Speaker 5: don't like millionaires because they're really bad, but we're going
- 1:31:20Speaker 5: to tax them. So we need them because we need
- 1:31:22Speaker 5: to continue to have their revenue to pay for things
- 1:31:24Speaker 5: like universal health care, because the healthcare system's broken, even
- 1:31:28Speaker 5: though we gave them Obamacare, which was the progressive health
- 1:31:31Speaker 5: care reform back in the day. So now we need
- 1:31:34Speaker 5: millionaires even though we don't like them, but we need
- 1:31:36Speaker 5: them to continue to pay for the healthcare plans for
- 1:31:39Speaker 5: something like a universal health care system.
- 1:31:40Speaker 20: To be very clear, you're describing this trade off, you
- 1:31:43Speaker 20: are effectively acknowledging that people making less than a million
- 1:31:46Speaker 20: dollars could see their taxes go up.
- 1:31:48Speaker 15: I just wouldn't be very clear.
- 1:31:49Speaker 25: Is that a yes, I'm saying that we'd be paying
- 1:31:52Speaker 25: for health care in a different way instead of paying
- 1:31:55Speaker 25: a health insurance company who CEO makes twenty million dollars,
- 1:31:57Speaker 25: I would much rather pay for dal health care into
- 1:32:00Speaker 25: a government, which, of course we all know provides healthcare
- 1:32:04Speaker 25: for seniors who need health care the most.
- 1:32:06Speaker 5: So all right, if you're part of the senior citizen class,
- 1:32:10Speaker 5: I need to know how's your healthcare working out? If
- 1:32:13Speaker 5: you're a veteran that goes through the VA system for
- 1:32:15Speaker 5: your healthcare, how's that one working out. I'd love to
- 1:32:18Speaker 5: hear on how successful those government healthcare options actually are,
- 1:32:22Speaker 5: because that's what they want. The first step was let's
- 1:32:24Speaker 5: do Obamacare, which gave more money, by the way, to
- 1:32:28Speaker 5: the health insurance companies. Right, I mean, that's essentially what
- 1:32:30Speaker 5: it is. We're now subsidizing your insurance premiums through the government,
- 1:32:35Speaker 5: so that way they can now decide as a private
- 1:32:37Speaker 5: insurance company on what you can have covered, the specialists
- 1:32:40Speaker 5: that you're allowed or not allowed to see, the pharmaceuticals
- 1:32:43Speaker 5: that you're not allowed or allowed to have covered's, or
- 1:32:45Speaker 5: what you're going to pay out of pocket. And what
- 1:32:47Speaker 5: did that do? That doubled and tripled your premiums, That
- 1:32:50Speaker 5: doubled and tripled your deductibles. Obamacare, which was the progressive alternative,
- 1:32:55Speaker 5: gave more power and money to the insurance companies. Now
- 1:32:59Speaker 5: they talk about how evil the insurance companies are, to
- 1:33:01Speaker 5: the point where, if you remember, we saw the shooting
- 1:33:04Speaker 5: of the United Healthcare CEO because of how evil the
- 1:33:08Speaker 5: insurance companies are. But yet when we were debating the
- 1:33:11Speaker 5: One Big Beautiful Bill last year, they were upset about
- 1:33:14Speaker 5: getting rid of subsidies to the insurance companies and the
- 1:33:17Speaker 5: one big beautiful bill by saying, let's go back to
- 1:33:20Speaker 5: prior to COVID nineteen before we didn't need to give
- 1:33:23Speaker 5: additional money into the insurance companies during that pandemic. So
- 1:33:27Speaker 5: they were men. We weren't giving them more. But they
- 1:33:30Speaker 5: hate them and we want to get rid of them
- 1:33:31Speaker 5: by doing a universal healthcare system. Can you please make
- 1:33:34Speaker 5: up your mind because my mind doesn't work that way.
- 1:33:37Speaker 5: I can't go back and forth like that. Most people can't.
- 1:33:42Speaker 5: But the logic of the lefts we got lots where
- 1:33:44Speaker 5: to get toe, which the Concerns Radio program. Stay here
- 1:34:03Speaker 5: all right, welcome back to it. It is the Tom
- 1:34:04Speaker 5: Starns Radio show. Andy Hoo's you're sitting in for you today.
- 1:34:08Speaker 5: Tod feeling a little bit under the weather, having a
- 1:34:11Speaker 5: whatever it is, hit his throat, not able to talk.
- 1:34:13Speaker 5: He was, He did the first hour, He rocked it
- 1:34:14Speaker 5: to the first hour, and we got you here for
- 1:34:16Speaker 5: the rest of the program. He will be doing his
- 1:34:17Speaker 5: book signing tonight. So if you are planning to meet Todd,
- 1:34:20Speaker 5: get his new book, which you can at Todd Sterns
- 1:34:22Speaker 5: dot com on Amazon other places as well, with the
- 1:34:24Speaker 5: Golden Age, then you can go and get that, and
- 1:34:26Speaker 5: you can do that book signing with him Tonight's He
- 1:34:29Speaker 5: just may be miming to you if he doesn't have
- 1:34:31Speaker 5: the voice, so that's not the problem. You can find
- 1:34:33Speaker 5: all the information at Todd Stearns dot com. My name
- 1:34:36Speaker 5: is Andy Hoosier. I'm still trying to wrap my head
- 1:34:39Speaker 5: around the mindset, which again I've said before, I can
- 1:34:41Speaker 5: always I can respect someone to pinion even if I
- 1:34:44Speaker 5: disagree with it, if I can understand the logic behind it,
- 1:34:47Speaker 5: getting from point A to point B. How did you
- 1:34:50Speaker 5: get to your conclusion with the stance on a position?
- 1:34:52Speaker 5: If I can understand the thought process, I'm again I
- 1:34:55Speaker 5: may not agree, but I can at least respect. It
- 1:34:58Speaker 5: doesn't seem to be the case right now. We want
- 1:35:00Speaker 5: universal healthcare, and Obamacare was great, even though we got
- 1:35:04Speaker 5: to take a step further. But Obamacare gave more money
- 1:35:07Speaker 5: and subsidies to insurance companies. But we don't like insurance
- 1:35:10Speaker 5: companies because insurance companies are evil and make millions dollars
- 1:35:13Speaker 5: and it's all for profits, so we need to get
- 1:35:15Speaker 5: rid of them. But we liked it, and we didn't
- 1:35:16Speaker 5: want to cut back on the subsidies and we want
- 1:35:18Speaker 5: to tax millionaires because millionaires are evil, but we need
- 1:35:21Speaker 5: them around to continue to fund it. I don't understand
- 1:35:24Speaker 5: the logic here. Maybe our next guest here can help
- 1:35:26Speaker 5: us as we go to the Patriot Mobile news Maker Hotline.
- 1:35:28Speaker 5: I've been a big fan of hers for a while.
- 1:35:30Speaker 5: Newsbak's contributor radio hosting so much more. Mary Walter's with us. Mary,
- 1:35:34Speaker 5: how are you, my friend?
- 1:35:36Speaker 15: I'm good, Andy, how are you? Thank you so much
- 1:35:38Speaker 15: for having me.
- 1:35:39Speaker 5: Yeah, no, it's great to have you here on the
- 1:35:40Speaker 5: Todd Starn Show. Do you understand I know that you know,
- 1:35:42Speaker 5: it's kind of like sinking your head into the sewer
- 1:35:45Speaker 5: and killing brain cells here, But do you understand the
- 1:35:48Speaker 5: logic of how we were supposed to hate millionaires and billionaires,
- 1:35:51Speaker 5: but yet we need them for the tax revenue for
- 1:35:53Speaker 5: all the fund social programs we need.
- 1:35:56Speaker 26: Well, we hating them justies taking the money away from
- 1:36:01Speaker 26: them because they have to be punished because they're evil, right,
- 1:36:04Speaker 26: Because so that's what we do, and that's punishment.
- 1:36:08Speaker 15: For them, is to take their money from them. So
- 1:36:12Speaker 15: it's that that's the whole thing.
- 1:36:14Speaker 26: Listen Hitler did with this with the Jews, right, This
- 1:36:16Speaker 26: is what we see every time there's some kind of
- 1:36:18Speaker 26: socialist takeover. Communists takeover. You take a group of people,
- 1:36:21Speaker 26: you vilify them, you make them the enemy. They're the
- 1:36:24Speaker 26: cause of all your problems, and if we just get
- 1:36:27Speaker 26: rid of them, if we just punish them, all of
- 1:36:29Speaker 26: your problems are going to go away. And so that's
- 1:36:32Speaker 26: what they're doing here with billionaires. I'm old enough to
- 1:36:34Speaker 26: remember when Bernie Sanders used to complain about millionaires and billionaires.
- 1:36:39Speaker 26: Now he just complains about billionaires because he's a millionaire.
- 1:36:43Speaker 26: And it's funny how all of these so called socialists
- 1:36:47Speaker 26: communists who are taking over, if you dig into their background,
- 1:36:51Speaker 26: they're all Nepo babies. They all have parents of privilege.
- 1:36:54Speaker 26: They all grew up privileged at private schools like Francesca
- 1:36:58Speaker 26: han private school. Oh no, that is a Djene Carrington
- 1:37:02Speaker 26: private schools. They go to great colleges. You know, they
- 1:37:06Speaker 26: benefit from the system. But then they want to tear
- 1:37:09Speaker 26: the system down after they've gotten to the top, they
- 1:37:11Speaker 26: want to pull the latter up.
- 1:37:13Speaker 5: Of course.
- 1:37:13Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:37:14Speaker 5: Well, and like socialism, they always say, you know, if
- 1:37:16Speaker 5: we just go further down the road of socialism, There's
- 1:37:18Speaker 5: never been a true form of socialism ever tried. If
- 1:37:20Speaker 5: we just go a step further and have a purer
- 1:37:23Speaker 5: version than this time, it'll work. But all the other
- 1:37:26Speaker 5: times were just complete failures, right, I mean, we just
- 1:37:28Speaker 5: got to go a step further and then all of
- 1:37:29Speaker 5: a sudden, the dream world, the fantasy world will all
- 1:37:32Speaker 5: come to fruition.
- 1:37:34Speaker 15: Yeah, and it's interesting.
- 1:37:35Speaker 26: And I'm sure you've seen all of these men on
- 1:37:37Speaker 26: the street interviews, which I absolutely excuse me, I absolutely
- 1:37:41Speaker 26: love and could watch all day long, and my algorithm
- 1:37:44Speaker 26: on my phone probably shows that. But these people when
- 1:37:47Speaker 26: they ask these people, oh okay, well you know, why
- 1:37:49Speaker 26: do you hate Chop because he's a.
- 1:37:50Speaker 15: Fascist, And you go, oh okay, well let's have a dialogue.
- 1:37:55Speaker 15: You know, what has he done? This fascist?
- 1:37:57Speaker 6: How do you not know?
- 1:37:58Speaker 15: They can never They're literally they are the epitome of
- 1:38:03Speaker 15: the useful idiots that are key to all of these takeovers.
- 1:38:07Speaker 15: You need the bellowing mob in order to make the
- 1:38:12Speaker 15: noise to silence opposition, and that's what they do. And
- 1:38:17Speaker 15: their knowledge is as deep as a puddle.
- 1:38:21Speaker 26: You know, they can't they don't know anything, but they
- 1:38:24Speaker 26: are emotionally driven and they're emotionally riled up. So it's
- 1:38:28Speaker 26: easy to use them. And it's kind of sad when
- 1:38:30Speaker 26: you think about it. But on the other hand, I'm
- 1:38:32Speaker 26: kind of like, you're an idiot, so you get what
- 1:38:34Speaker 26: you deserve.
- 1:38:35Speaker 5: Yeah, well, we want to we want to dismiss them,
- 1:38:37Speaker 5: right because it is such an illogical conversation. It doesn't
- 1:38:40Speaker 5: make any sense. It's all emotionally driven. The sad part
- 1:38:42Speaker 5: is that, like you said, I mean, a lot of
- 1:38:44Speaker 5: people fall for the noise. This was check this that
- 1:38:46Speaker 5: you'll enjoy this. There was an interview done with the
- 1:38:48Speaker 5: coach here of the Democratic Socialists of America on the
- 1:38:51Speaker 5: platform and taxing the millionaires, and.
- 1:38:54Speaker 15: She said this, but we do believe in taxing the
- 1:38:56Speaker 15: hell out of millionaires.
- 1:38:57Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, Well what is taxing the hell?
- 1:39:01Speaker 12: Uh?
- 1:39:02Speaker 9: Yeah?
- 1:39:02Speaker 15: You know again I don't have like a solid but
- 1:39:05Speaker 15: I think, but shouldn't you.
- 1:39:08Speaker 16: I mean, if you're the co chair, if you're the
- 1:39:10Speaker 16: co chair of the DSA, shouldn't you be more specific
- 1:39:14Speaker 16: than just taxing the hell out of something?
- 1:39:15Speaker 5: What exactly do you mean?
- 1:39:17Speaker 26: So again, it's democracy, right, and we have to look
- 1:39:20Speaker 26: at what we need to spend and what we need.
- 1:39:22Speaker 15: We don't want to depend on the existence of millionaires,
- 1:39:24Speaker 15: because that means people are still getting exploited.
- 1:39:26Speaker 26: So so yeah, we need to we need to look
- 1:39:28Speaker 26: at what we need to pay for in the interim,
- 1:39:31Speaker 26: what sort of tax base we need for that to happen,
- 1:39:33Speaker 26: and then and build from there.
- 1:39:35Speaker 5: So it's democracy. We don't want to depend on them,
- 1:39:37Speaker 5: but we need them for their revenue to fund all
- 1:39:39Speaker 5: the social programs. But if we do that, then there
- 1:39:41Speaker 5: we're dependent on them. It's still in a slave state
- 1:39:43Speaker 5: from the evil rich people. So I don't understand it
- 1:39:47Speaker 5: helped me out here.
- 1:39:47Speaker 15: Mary, it made no sense whatsoever.
- 1:39:50Speaker 26: And you could tell from that video that she was
- 1:39:52Speaker 26: quite shocked that he asked to follow up question, because
- 1:39:56Speaker 26: you're not supposed to do that. That's the contract with
- 1:39:59Speaker 26: the media is you're not supposed to do that. And
- 1:40:02Speaker 26: so when they talk to people who are maybe podcasters
- 1:40:05Speaker 26: or alternative media and they ask a follow up question,
- 1:40:09Speaker 26: they're like, wait a minute, that's not in the contract.
- 1:40:10Speaker 26: You're just supposed to let me say the slogans.
- 1:40:14Speaker 15: And that's what they do.
- 1:40:15Speaker 26: If you listen to them very very carefully. There is
- 1:40:18Speaker 26: never They never tell you how they're going to do it.
- 1:40:20Speaker 26: They just say, yeah, we're going to do it, you know,
- 1:40:22Speaker 26: mom Donnie, and they're screaming Mondahmi balanced the budget. See
- 1:40:25Speaker 26: he balanced the budget, or like, yeah, do you know
- 1:40:28Speaker 26: he balanced the budget.
- 1:40:30Speaker 15: No, the numbers were no.
- 1:40:33Speaker 26: Kathy Hcal had to give him like six billion dollars
- 1:40:36Speaker 26: of the rest of New York's money in order to
- 1:40:38Speaker 26: balance his budget.
- 1:40:39Speaker 15: So he did nothing.
- 1:40:40Speaker 26: He put his hand out to get money from other people.
- 1:40:43Speaker 26: But again go back to who these people are. They're
- 1:40:46Speaker 26: very wealthy and or they come from wealthy parents, wealthy
- 1:40:51Speaker 26: homes where all they ever did was stick their hand
- 1:40:53Speaker 26: out and the mommy daddy atm you know, popped out
- 1:40:56Speaker 26: a credit card that they never saw a bill for,
- 1:40:59Speaker 26: or popped ou out, you know, money, and that's just
- 1:41:01Speaker 26: how it went. And so in their world, that's the
- 1:41:04Speaker 26: way it works. They don't do anything, and then when
- 1:41:07Speaker 26: it fails, they blame other people. It's, oh, it's Kathy
- 1:41:09Speaker 26: Hogel's fault. Oh it's the it's the Assembly's fault. And ultimately,
- 1:41:13Speaker 26: of course, is Trump's fault.
- 1:41:15Speaker 5: Yeah, it's really crazy. We're talking with Mary Walter. So
- 1:41:17Speaker 5: let's fift heres a little bit. Let's go to the
- 1:41:19Speaker 5: polls for the midterm season. Right now, I had seen
- 1:41:21Speaker 5: a few different polls right now eighty six percent chance
- 1:41:24Speaker 5: on polymarket that Republicans lose the House of Representatives. I
- 1:41:27Speaker 5: don't know if that's going to be true. I'm optimistic.
- 1:41:29Speaker 5: I think redistricting. I think that with the help of Trump,
- 1:41:31Speaker 5: we are going to maybe maintain it. And in fact,
- 1:41:33Speaker 5: I talked to my congressman. They expect us to even
- 1:41:35Speaker 5: maybe gain a couple of seats, which would be interesting.
- 1:41:38Speaker 5: But then we hear Trump's poll numbers right now. The
- 1:41:41Speaker 5: headline I'd just seen before we came on here showed
- 1:41:44Speaker 5: that right now his poll numbers nationwide below what they
- 1:41:46Speaker 5: were during January sixth, trying to bring that one up again.
- 1:41:50Speaker 5: But at the same time, we see people leaving the
- 1:41:53Speaker 5: Democrat Party and among the Republican parties still the approval
- 1:41:56Speaker 5: writing of Trump between ninety to ninety five percent. Which
- 1:41:59Speaker 5: ones do we believe here may as we go further
- 1:42:00Speaker 5: into midterm season.
- 1:42:02Speaker 26: Well, I don't believe poles. I don't believe any of them.
- 1:42:07Speaker 26: Have you ever been asked to respond to a poll?
- 1:42:09Speaker 26: I get them on my phone all the time, But
- 1:42:11Speaker 26: then if I go online and look them up, you
- 1:42:13Speaker 26: know it's this realis is a scam?
- 1:42:14Speaker 15: Is this fishing?
- 1:42:15Speaker 6: What is this?
- 1:42:16Speaker 15: I don't respond, so I think most people don't respond
- 1:42:19Speaker 15: to those polls. So it depends on how those poles
- 1:42:21Speaker 15: are conducted. I think that's a big part of this.
- 1:42:23Speaker 26: And I think polling, the entire industry is kind of
- 1:42:25Speaker 26: really going to fall away, don't I don't see much
- 1:42:28Speaker 26: of a future for a polling I could be wrong.
- 1:42:30Speaker 26: I think we're always going to do it because it's
- 1:42:32Speaker 26: part of the game. It's kind of the fun if
- 1:42:35Speaker 26: Republicans can get out and vote. If we could somehow
- 1:42:39Speaker 26: figure out how to get Republicans to go out and vote.
- 1:42:41Speaker 26: And I think, honestly, I had this conversation today on
- 1:42:44Speaker 26: the air that I think that they need to use
- 1:42:47Speaker 26: they have a ton of money. Republicans have a ton
- 1:42:49Speaker 26: of money that they're sitting on. Maybe they need to
- 1:42:51Speaker 26: spend some of it and utilize someone like Scott Pressler
- 1:42:54Speaker 26: who is working with Turning Point, and also and get
- 1:42:59Speaker 26: them to be able to pay these ballot chasers Republicans
- 1:43:03Speaker 26: are trying. Scott Presler's trying to replicate what the Democrats
- 1:43:06Speaker 26: do to get people to the polls, to get those
- 1:43:10Speaker 26: mail in ballots. If you're going to have mail in ballots,
- 1:43:12Speaker 26: you might as well have people go chase them, just
- 1:43:14Speaker 26: like the Democrats do. So if Republicans would part with
- 1:43:18Speaker 26: some of the cash and maybe utilize the resources of
- 1:43:21Speaker 26: people who are trying to help them win, I think
- 1:43:26Speaker 26: they have a better chance. I just don't have much
- 1:43:30Speaker 26: faith in that happening because Republicans love to snatch defeat
- 1:43:34Speaker 26: from the jaws of victory.
- 1:43:36Speaker 5: Well, that is true. We are always our own worst enemy.
- 1:43:38Speaker 5: I mean, right now we have a golden opportunity. Democrats
- 1:43:41Speaker 5: are declaring a civil war amongst each other. We have
- 1:43:43Speaker 5: the rise of the Democratic Socialists of America. They have
- 1:43:46Speaker 5: no agenda. Even he keme Jefferys they were like, Hey,
- 1:43:48Speaker 5: what's the plan and the strategy and the talking points
- 1:43:51Speaker 5: for the campaign? And they're like, we're working on it.
- 1:43:53Speaker 5: We don't really know yet. So they don't even know
- 1:43:54Speaker 5: what they stand for. And you mentioned the finances. The
- 1:43:57Speaker 5: Republican National Committee has reported one hundred and twenty eight
- 1:44:00Speaker 5: million dollars cash on hand. Democrats are at sixteen million
- 1:44:04Speaker 5: with eighteen million dollars worth of debt on top of
- 1:44:06Speaker 5: the GLP, and the RNC is one hundred and twenty
- 1:44:08Speaker 5: eight million dollars. Trump himself with the MAGA Pact has
- 1:44:11Speaker 5: five hundred million dollars sitting on hand, with Elon Musk
- 1:44:15Speaker 5: saying that he's going to start throwing money into it
- 1:44:17Speaker 5: as well. We have more money than we know what
- 1:44:19Speaker 5: to do with right now, how do we transfer that
- 1:44:22Speaker 5: into activism, engagement and voter turnout because so far voter
- 1:44:26Speaker 5: turnout for Republicans have been very low across the nation
- 1:44:28Speaker 5: for the primaries.
- 1:44:30Speaker 15: Right Well, like I was just saying, Scott Pressler is
- 1:44:33Speaker 15: going to pair up.
- 1:44:34Speaker 26: He's supposedly going to be teaming up with Turning Point
- 1:44:37Speaker 26: to use those college kids to and to fund ballot chasers,
- 1:44:41Speaker 26: and that's what we need.
- 1:44:42Speaker 15: We need. He's trying to replicate the Democrats game.
- 1:44:46Speaker 26: And so you see his posts on x and on
- 1:44:49Speaker 26: Instagram and on social media all the time, like, hey,
- 1:44:51Speaker 26: donate money so we can sponsor a ballot chaser. Sponsor
- 1:44:54Speaker 26: a ballot chaser, so we can pay these people to
- 1:44:57Speaker 26: go out there and play the Democrats at their own
- 1:45:01Speaker 26: game on the same playing field. But they don't have money,
- 1:45:03Speaker 26: and we do so to me, And that's one thing
- 1:45:06Speaker 26: that I think Elon Musk's pack said he was going
- 1:45:08Speaker 26: to do. He was going to put money into this
- 1:45:12Speaker 26: cycle into doing just that, getting out the vote, and
- 1:45:15Speaker 26: hopefully he'll work with Scott and Turning Point in order
- 1:45:20Speaker 26: to get ballot chasers out there, or come up with
- 1:45:22Speaker 26: some kind of planet in order to get ballot chasers
- 1:45:24Speaker 26: out there, and then let the R and C do
- 1:45:26Speaker 26: what they usually do, which is put out lame commercials.
- 1:45:29Speaker 5: Well, that is very true, and it's so sad because
- 1:45:31Speaker 5: Republicans used to be way better at grassroots campaigning, right,
- 1:45:35Speaker 5: I mean, we were the ones that were connected with
- 1:45:36Speaker 5: our communities. That's why our ideas were more accepted because
- 1:45:40Speaker 5: you know, you could go and knock on the door
- 1:45:42Speaker 5: of your elected official at the state wide level, federal
- 1:45:44Speaker 5: level right there they were in your community. We got it.
- 1:45:46Speaker 5: And the Democrats don't know how to be relatable to
- 1:45:49Speaker 5: their constituency, which is why it's so difficult for them.
- 1:45:51Speaker 5: So it's it's sad that we're down this road. Last
- 1:45:54Speaker 5: a couple questions for you, Mary. We're running out of
- 1:45:55Speaker 5: time here, but it's Mary Walter's News Mexican contributor, radio
- 1:45:57Speaker 5: host and more. Let's talk about transparency for just a moment.
- 1:46:00Speaker 5: I got to give credit. We are seeing more transparency
- 1:46:03Speaker 5: disclosure that we've seen really of any administration. Thank God
- 1:46:07Speaker 5: for the Transparency Task Force in Congress right now, Anna Paulina, Luna,
- 1:46:11Speaker 5: Tim Burchett, and a heck of a lot more releasing
- 1:46:13Speaker 5: documents on the MLK assassination, the JFK assassination, round number
- 1:46:18Speaker 5: five of the UFO and UAP disclosure that we saw
- 1:46:21Speaker 5: last Friday, which I love that type of information. Is
- 1:46:24Speaker 5: this information and is this transparency going to help Donald
- 1:46:28Speaker 5: Trump and Republicans by showing, hey, we're not keeping secrets,
- 1:46:31Speaker 5: we're not the deep state. We're fighting back against them,
- 1:46:34Speaker 5: and look at what we're doing here out in front
- 1:46:35Speaker 5: of everybody.
- 1:46:37Speaker 17: No, no, it's not.
- 1:46:40Speaker 15: They want blood.
- 1:46:42Speaker 26: They want the Epstein quote unquote the Epstein files. I
- 1:46:45Speaker 26: don't know what people think are in the Epstein files.
- 1:46:48Speaker 26: Somewhere along the line, people decided that there's a list
- 1:46:52Speaker 26: of all the clientele. There's a black book, and you know,
- 1:46:55Speaker 26: with all their crapp can say the word activities whatever.
- 1:47:03Speaker 26: You know what I mean, Proclivities, that's it. Proclivities, Like
- 1:47:08Speaker 26: there's that book somewhere. I need coffee and or a drink.
- 1:47:13Speaker 15: I don't know what you want, and I don't think
- 1:47:15Speaker 15: that that exists. I don't think that exists. And they're like, oh,
- 1:47:18Speaker 15: there's so much redacted.
- 1:47:19Speaker 26: Yeah, well, because there were lawsuits before, and Jeffrey Epstein
- 1:47:21Speaker 26: went to court before, and deals were made with people
- 1:47:24Speaker 26: who knew what was going on, and part of those
- 1:47:27Speaker 26: deals were that those parts of those records would be sealed.
- 1:47:31Speaker 26: And they're like, Trump's protecting pad of files, like you
- 1:47:34Speaker 26: don't understand how any of this works. And Trump put
- 1:47:37Speaker 26: pulled out over three million pages of Epstein files of
- 1:47:41Speaker 26: stuff on Epstein, Obama zero, Bush zero, Biden zero, Yeah,
- 1:47:47Speaker 26: and it but Trump over three million pages.
- 1:47:51Speaker 15: But it's not enough.
- 1:47:52Speaker 26: So I don't think that's enough to influence the midterms.
- 1:47:55Speaker 26: I think as long as the mainstream media is campaigning
- 1:47:57Speaker 26: against him so hard the hardest they can, he's he's on.
- 1:48:02Speaker 26: He's again swimming against the tide as he keeps doing.
- 1:48:05Speaker 26: He's just got to teach the Republicans how to do it.
- 1:48:09Speaker 26: And even if well as he's teaching them how to
- 1:48:11Speaker 26: do it, it's just the problems the Republicans don't want
- 1:48:13Speaker 26: to Well, that is true.
- 1:48:15Speaker 5: I mean, look, we see that we're finally growing a
- 1:48:17Speaker 5: pair of huevos. We just got to teach the other
- 1:48:19Speaker 5: ones how to actually do that and get things done,
- 1:48:21Speaker 5: for sure. The last question for you, Mary, but the
- 1:48:23Speaker 5: big story. Apparently everybody's paying attention to Alexandria Ocasio Cortez
- 1:48:28Speaker 5: freezing her eggs on a live video stream. Groundbreaking information there, right.
- 1:48:33Speaker 5: She's so excited that women power to freeze your eggs
- 1:48:35Speaker 5: and you can do it on a on a live
- 1:48:38Speaker 5: video stream.
- 1:48:38Speaker 15: Apparently speaking of wavos.
- 1:48:47Speaker 20: I like this.
- 1:48:47Speaker 15: I'd have a problem with this. It makes her happy.
- 1:48:49Speaker 15: God bless her. That's great. She wants to have kids
- 1:48:51Speaker 15: down the road. This is how she thinks she should
- 1:48:53Speaker 15: do it. It's for her plan. That's fine. I don't care.
- 1:48:56Speaker 15: You just have to realize this is she's part of
- 1:48:58Speaker 15: that generation.
- 1:48:59Speaker 26: She's the lead at the edge of the generation that
- 1:49:02Speaker 26: everything they do as an event, everything is public.
- 1:49:05Speaker 15: They think everybody cares about what their food looks like.
- 1:49:08Speaker 15: You know, oh, I learned how to use that. It
- 1:49:10Speaker 15: was she discovered a disposal.
- 1:49:12Speaker 5: Oh yeah, oh I got it. Hold on, here you go.
- 1:49:14Speaker 11: I'm told this is a garbage disposal.
- 1:49:17Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yeah, that's what That's the level we're at
- 1:49:21Speaker 5: in society today.
- 1:49:23Speaker 15: Yeah, and so half of this, half of.
- 1:49:25Speaker 26: This is just acting on her part. She grew up
- 1:49:27Speaker 26: in a wealthy neighborhood. Stop at Sandy from the Bronx.
- 1:49:31Speaker 26: So so you just have to understand that her, she's
- 1:49:35Speaker 26: the leading edge of the generation of the everybody loved me,

- 1:50:51Speaker 5: thanks again to Mary Walter's great program with her on
- 1:50:54Speaker 5: the show. Always enjoy getting her insight on issues. We
- 1:50:57Speaker 5: have a little bit of some breaking news. Where as
- 1:51:01Speaker 5: you know the past week there have been at least
- 1:51:03Speaker 5: two former NBA stars that have officially qualified themselves to
- 1:51:08Speaker 5: be prospects for the twenty twenty seven w NBA Draft
- 1:51:13Speaker 5: to play with the women's basketball because well, if they
- 1:51:16Speaker 5: want to advocate for open policy for transgender individuals, as
- 1:51:20Speaker 5: long as you want to feel like a female, then
- 1:51:23Speaker 5: you therefore qualify according to the current rules of the WNBA,
- 1:51:27Speaker 5: and therefore we have had two of them. Royce White
- 1:51:29Speaker 5: and Inez Canter have both qualified themselves to say that
- 1:51:34Speaker 5: they are prospects for the upcoming twenty twenty seven WNBA
- 1:51:38Speaker 5: Draft rankings. Well after the video that was made for
- 1:51:41Speaker 5: Enez Canter on I want to say Friday last week
- 1:51:44Speaker 5: saying that he is going to jump into the ring
- 1:51:45Speaker 5: there which again seven foot tall, former NBA superstar and
- 1:51:50Speaker 5: now we want to play for the WNBA. Good for him,
- 1:51:52Speaker 5: I say, kudos. I think that's hilarious. This is what
- 1:51:54Speaker 5: it's going to take for us to really poke some
- 1:51:56Speaker 5: fun at of how stupid this conversation is in the
- 1:51:58Speaker 5: first place. But nonetheless, after their announcement, apparently there's been
- 1:52:03Speaker 5: a statement that's been released from the WNBA Commissioner on
- 1:52:06Speaker 5: the issue saying that they're announcing the league will be
- 1:52:09Speaker 5: meeting to review what a woman is after multiple NBA
- 1:52:12Speaker 5: stars announced playing or playing to join the league. I
- 1:52:16Speaker 5: guess all it took was some real men to actually
- 1:52:19Speaker 5: question that policy and for that to be withdrawn pretty quickly.
- 1:52:23Speaker 5: Always a pleasure to fill in for Todd Starns. We'll
- 1:52:25Speaker 5: see back on the radio soon. It is the Todd
- 1:52:27Speaker 5: Starns radio program.
