Transcript
- 0:02Speaker 1: Con resist the urge can give you one of my
- 0:04Speaker 1: all time favorite pieces of advice.
- 0:07Speaker 2: Making mornings great again. First Thing Today on the Talk
- 0:11Speaker 2: Media Network by Joe Thomas.
- 0:13Speaker 1: If you're going through hell, keep going.
- 0:38Speaker 3: Thank you for letting me be of service to you.
- 0:40Speaker 3: On this Teddsday, where we gather amongst our radio's bask
- 0:44Speaker 3: in the amplitude and frequency modulation goodness and celebrate it.
- 0:48Speaker 3: Your tenness. Your tenness is different than my tenness, that's
- 0:52Speaker 3: different than our oracle ted Nugent's, whatever it is God
- 0:56Speaker 3: has gifted you to do. These are the days where
- 0:58Speaker 3: we celebrate the application of those gifts to a grateful
- 1:03Speaker 3: constituency who reward you justly based on your own requests
- 1:08Speaker 3: and reasonable negotiation. And then you don't have to worry
- 1:12Speaker 3: about what everyone else says. You don't even have to
- 1:14Speaker 3: worry until they start coming and saying you don't have
- 1:17Speaker 3: a license to do that. And that's why we have
- 1:20Speaker 3: a representative republic, if we can keep it, that's supposed
- 1:24Speaker 3: to protect you from those abuses and usur patients. On
- 1:30Speaker 3: this post election day, I thought it appropriate to get
- 1:34Speaker 3: my favorite coroner, Ducky Mallard from NCIS to lead us
- 1:41Speaker 3: in because it is an autopsy. The patient is here
- 1:49Speaker 3: on the table, and we will go through the post
- 1:52Speaker 3: mortem on how such stunning victories were won by the
- 2:00Speaker 3: Party of Free Stuff and invented rights. And these are
- 2:10Speaker 3: several of the things we're going to point out to
- 2:13Speaker 3: you as the reasons that this is. This is, in
- 2:19Speaker 3: some colloquial sense, what it looks like when you run
- 2:24Speaker 3: against Santa Claus, certainly in New York, but there are
- 2:30Speaker 3: plenty of other reasons. It's not just New Yorkers are
- 2:33Speaker 3: into free stuff paid for by someone else. There are
- 2:36Speaker 3: people who say that they wouldn't necessarily be wrong, But
- 2:44Speaker 3: New Yorkers were also faced with a choice of other
- 2:47Speaker 3: candidates that they didn't like, though didn't seem to have
- 2:53Speaker 3: any recourse in changing them. The same is true in Virginia.
- 2:58Speaker 3: Virginia Republicans didn't turn out because the candidates weren't who
- 3:03Speaker 3: they wanted. New Yorkers didn't like Andrew Cuomo for a
- 3:08Speaker 3: myriad of good reasons. Also didn't like Curtis Sliwa. So
- 3:15Speaker 3: how do you fix that? What do you do with that?
- 3:17Speaker 3: In Virginia, we're going to be the patron saint of
- 3:22Speaker 3: politicians choosing their own voters again, not five years after
- 3:27Speaker 3: standing up and drawing a line in the sand and
- 3:29Speaker 3: turning over that power. They just couldn't leave it alone.
- 3:33Speaker 3: And we'll get into that as well as we have
- 3:35Speaker 3: details on the court ruling in Virginia's clerk's case. But
- 3:41Speaker 3: our first things this morning. Frightening video taken by some
- 3:45Speaker 3: bystanders of a United Parcel Service plane crashing around five
- 3:50Speaker 3: pm election day at Muhammad Ali Airport in Louisville, Kentucky.
- 3:56Speaker 3: According to officials on the ground, one of the engines
- 3:59Speaker 3: fell off the wing of the plane, killing at least
- 4:06Speaker 3: seven people injuring several others on the ground, according to
- 4:10Speaker 3: Kentucky Governor Andy Bisher. We mentioned the election results, Abigail
- 4:17Speaker 3: Spanberger and Mikey Cheryl winning their respective governor's races in Virginia,
- 4:22Speaker 3: New Jersey, and Zorhan Mamdani winning the mayor's race in
- 4:26Speaker 3: New York. Proposition fifty winning its California election, giving the
- 4:31Speaker 3: legislation legislators the permission to redraw their congressional districts, and
- 4:38Speaker 3: that won by a margin of sixty four to thirty six.
- 4:42Speaker 3: President Trump took to social media and untruth social wrote,
- 4:47Speaker 3: Trump wasn't on the ballot and shut down. Those are
- 4:50Speaker 3: the two reasons that Republicans lost the election tonight, according
- 4:54Speaker 3: to pollsters end quote. The White House Tuesday issued a
- 4:59Speaker 3: state and clarifying that the Trump administration is fully complying
- 5:04Speaker 3: with recent court orders to use emergency funds to keep
- 5:08Speaker 3: the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits from lapsing during the
- 5:14Speaker 3: government shutdown, which is now record setting. It's longer than
- 5:18Speaker 3: any government shutdown before, thirty six days as of today,
- 5:23Speaker 3: longer than the longest one of the first Trump administration.
- 5:29Speaker 3: President will host Republican leaders from the US Senate at
- 5:33Speaker 3: the White House today to discuss strategies towards getting the
- 5:37Speaker 3: government reopened. US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warned as the
- 5:43Speaker 3: holiday travel season approaches, of mass chaos if the government
- 5:48Speaker 3: shutdown doesn't end. He said, a week from today, Democrats,
- 5:53Speaker 3: you will see mass chaos. You will see mass flight delays,
- 5:56Speaker 3: you will see mass cancelations. You may see us close
- 6:01Speaker 3: certain parts of American airspace because we cannot manage it.
- 6:06Speaker 3: And the NCAA football playoff rankings first ones came out
- 6:11Speaker 3: Ohio State, Indiana, Texas, A and m Alabama, along with BYU,
- 6:19Speaker 3: Virginia and Memphis, all projected to be in the final
- 6:23Speaker 3: twelve as of right now. Some of this is based on.

- 7:01Speaker 5: You know it's true. Difficult times have a way of
- 7:04Speaker 5: focusing us. We have to think about what matters most
- 7:07Speaker 5: when it comes to our spending our healthcare. This is
- 7:09Speaker 5: why so many people are joining meta share right now.
- 7:13Speaker 5: Metas Share is a trusted way to save up to
- 7:16Speaker 5: fifty percent on your monthly healthcare costs. More than four

- 7:22Speaker 5: obvious why, especially now during this challenging season with health
- 7:26Speaker 5: care costs and out of pocket.
- 7:27Speaker 3: Expenses going up.
- 7:29Speaker 5: Metashare can save you a lot of money. The typical
- 7:31Speaker 5: family saves five hundred dollars a month. Medashare works too.

- 8:04Speaker 6: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas?
- 8:08Speaker 7: Yes?
- 8:08Speaker 6: Actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
- 8:13Speaker 6: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
- 8:18Speaker 6: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
- 8:23Speaker 6: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen
- 8:28Speaker 6: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
- 8:32Speaker 6: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
- 8:36Speaker 6: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
- 8:39Speaker 6: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
- 8:42Speaker 6: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate nitric Oxide,
- 8:47Speaker 6: can easily help fix this lack of nitric oxide. Go

- 9:37Speaker 9: and from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or aids. Vaccines like

- 11:05Speaker 11: you recognize them by their clothes, their age, the way
- 11:10Speaker 11: they speak. Would you notice a sixteen year old boy
- 11:13Speaker 11: who got his first job for extra spending money, but
- 11:16Speaker 11: to help feed his little sisters or a mother who's
- 11:20Speaker 11: in between jobs and sometimes goes to bed hungry so
- 11:23Speaker 11: her kids can have dinner. Or a fourteen year old
- 11:26Speaker 11: girl who signs up to every after school.
- 11:28Speaker 5: Activity not to make friends, but just to get something
- 11:31Speaker 5: to eat.

- 12:55Speaker 14: Radio It's on.
- 13:12Speaker 16: Well, there's no question that jerry mandering is a threat
- 13:14Speaker 16: to our democracy.
- 13:15Speaker 2: It allows politicians to pick their voters. First thing Today
- 13:19Speaker 2: by Joe Thomas on the Tunk Media Network.
- 13:28Speaker 3: I was just reminded by an old friend that the
- 13:42Speaker 3: autopsy scene from the first Fletch movie might be worth
- 13:46Speaker 3: bringing in here if we're assisting on calling today's program
- 13:49Speaker 3: an autopsy yesterday's election results. Well, I mean news. Everybody
- 13:54Speaker 3: does news. How many people get you up on the
- 13:57Speaker 3: slab in the lab and start really trying to figure
- 14:02Speaker 3: out where the fatal wound was there? And it isn't fatal.
- 14:07Speaker 3: I shouldn't use that word as a trigger word. We
- 14:10Speaker 3: in the media are taught to make you go what.
- 14:13Speaker 3: But we need lawyers. We need lawyers. Guns and money
- 14:19Speaker 3: is what we need to defend our rights right now.
- 14:22Speaker 3: And unfortunately Warren Zevon never played that song with Ted Nugent,
- 14:26Speaker 3: but I will refer to it this morning. But I
- 14:28Speaker 3: want to see, because I'm curious and nosy a little both,
- 14:33Speaker 3: to see if the election results of last night have
- 14:36Speaker 3: had any impact on gold and silver. I know a
- 14:39Speaker 3: lot of the American markets closed at night, but they
- 14:43Speaker 3: go twenty four to seven at jcsgold dot com. James
- 14:47Speaker 3: Luckford generations whole bunches of elections. I should look this up.
- 14:52Speaker 3: Who was governor of Virginia or New Jersey in nineteen
- 14:56Speaker 3: sixty one? When you guys open the doors to the
- 15:00Speaker 3: Jefferson Coinshop. How are you doing this morning, James?
- 15:03Speaker 17: I'm built well, Joe and interesting. Gold and silver dropped
- 15:08Speaker 17: yesterday after we spoke in the morning, but pretty much
- 15:12Speaker 17: ride in line with the rest of the broader stock
- 15:14Speaker 17: market and crypto market. Everything was down yesterday, gold and
- 15:18Speaker 17: silver included. It had been leveled off, and overnight here
- 15:23Speaker 17: it is rebounded some still down overall, but gold is
- 15:27Speaker 17: at three thousand, nine and sixty dollars currently up twenty
- 15:32Speaker 17: eight dollars so far, about three quarters of a percent.
- 15:34Speaker 3: In the green.
- 15:35Speaker 17: But as you can tell, yesterday morning we were at
- 15:37Speaker 17: about four thousand dollars, and so we're really actually down
- 15:41Speaker 17: about forty dollars so far today compared to this time yesterday.
- 15:46Speaker 17: So we'll see where it goes throughout the day to day.
- 15:48Speaker 17: But it doesn't seem to be election driven. It seems
- 15:51Speaker 17: to be more broader market. It's the same story for silver.
- 15:55Speaker 17: Silver's at forty seven dollars and sixty cents, up about
- 15:59Speaker 17: one percent so far overnight, but still down where it
- 16:04Speaker 17: was this time yesterday morning. So you can always check
- 16:06Speaker 17: out jassgold dot com.
- 16:08Speaker 18: To see our live prices there and our charting section,
- 16:12Speaker 18: like you were saying, to see you know, where gold
- 16:14Speaker 18: and silver were yesterday, the day before, a year ago,
- 16:18Speaker 18: five years ago, and that's really cool to see where
- 16:21Speaker 18: we are here on this upward trajectory.
- 16:23Speaker 3: Well, and this is why I again I point to
- 16:26Speaker 3: them and say, this is why you want to call
- 16:28Speaker 3: a family business, because you know, I might not have
- 16:32Speaker 3: the money to invest in gold right now, so just
- 16:35Speaker 3: going online and buying it would be a mistake for me.
- 16:37Speaker 3: But if you do and you want to find out
- 16:39Speaker 3: the best way to do it, call them ten am
- 16:43Speaker 3: Eastern Standard time at four three four nine seven nine
- 16:48Speaker 3: coin or just visit them online shoot them an email
- 16:51Speaker 3: there at jcsgold dot com. You have a great morning, James,
- 16:55Speaker 3: Thank you, sir.
- 16:55Speaker 16: Oh.
- 16:55Speaker 3: By the way, my first guest was Tim Kaine's father
- 16:59Speaker 3: in law, but he didn't come along until nineteen seventy
- 17:02Speaker 3: Lynnwood Holton. So the governor when you guys opened in
- 17:06Speaker 3: Virginia was Governor James Lindsay Almond. You have I know,
- 17:13Speaker 3: there's your trivia question for you today. He was governor
- 17:17Speaker 3: of the Common Aeuth of Virginia from nineteen fifty eight
- 17:19Speaker 3: to nineteen sixty two. But Lynnwood Holton came a few
- 17:24Speaker 3: governors later. There they just apropos of nothing. I saw
- 17:29Speaker 3: a story out of Lynchburg, I think it was Lynchburg
- 17:31Speaker 3: or Southside somewhere. A family just found a trunk, like
- 17:37Speaker 3: a steamer trunk that belonged to Lynnwood Holton when he
- 17:42Speaker 3: served in the military. Forget which branch, but they said
- 17:48Speaker 3: Senator Kane and his wife were excited to receive the
- 17:52Speaker 3: gift of history. Oh and by the way, Lynnwood Holton,
- 17:57Speaker 3: Tim Kaine will tell you to no end that lynn
- 18:00Speaker 3: At Holton was a Republican, So that's his bipartisan bona fides.
- 18:04Speaker 3: There anyway, James, you have a great morning, sir.
- 18:07Speaker 17: Thanks Shoe, you too.
- 18:09Speaker 3: So back to our clowns and gowns discussion. And I
- 18:12Speaker 3: know I'm not scoring any points, but a couple of emails,
- 18:16Speaker 3: this one, dear friend here in Central Virginia, Joe. The
- 18:20Speaker 3: title of the email is standing. Since Joe, I believe
- 18:24Speaker 3: you were just in court. You were being sued by
- 18:28Speaker 3: a radio station that you used to be associated with
- 18:31Speaker 3: for offering to partner with your new radio station with them,
- 18:35Speaker 3: and they didn't want to do that, and you did
- 18:37Speaker 3: it anyway, so they sued you. That's their right. They
- 18:40Speaker 3: have standing. They went into court and if I believe
- 18:44Speaker 3: the procedure must have started with does the plaintiff have standing?
- 18:50Speaker 3: This is why we have standing. Otherwise you would have
- 18:54Speaker 3: people just lining up to sue people like you constantly,
- 18:57Speaker 3: just to shut you up. Judges have to be able
- 19:01Speaker 3: to determine whether or not somebody has standing before they
- 19:05Speaker 3: allow the case to go, lest people would be targeted
- 19:09Speaker 3: by their opponents, by their rivals, and drained of their
- 19:13Speaker 3: capital simply defending constant, unending lawsuits. This is why we
- 19:18Speaker 3: have standing. Okay, and mayaculpa on just being agast at
- 19:26Speaker 3: this particular application of standing. Terry. I appreciate the email,
- 19:32Speaker 3: but and please continue to send them in there, because
- 19:38Speaker 3: it's really you know, how it's applied and some of
- 19:42Speaker 3: the judicial rulings. You know, you really need to know
- 19:48Speaker 3: what was the basis of it, and not all the
- 19:51Speaker 3: judges out there. As a matter of fact, most of
- 19:54Speaker 3: the judges out there don't see fit to share that
- 19:59Speaker 3: information and with the public, especially when it's a public
- 20:02Speaker 3: facing suit like this, just as I believe it was.
- 20:08Speaker 3: Doctor Clark yesterday asked the question why would the two
- 20:12Speaker 3: Republican appointed judges that they had come to first were
- 20:16Speaker 3: first up and second up in the rotation recuse themselves.
- 20:20Speaker 3: I mean, they might have at one point been a
- 20:24Speaker 3: clerk of the court. That's usually one of the reasons.
- 20:27Speaker 3: They're member of the Virginia Clerks Association or something like that,
- 20:31Speaker 3: or a family member is an elected clerk of a
- 20:35Speaker 3: county court, or they have a family member that's in
- 20:40Speaker 3: the Virginia General Assembly. That's common as well. And so
- 20:50Speaker 3: the recusals that lead to the Democrat judge on the
- 20:54Speaker 3: panel getting the case was curious though. The lawyers, when
- 21:00Speaker 3: they spoke to me said he seemed zealous about looking
- 21:04Speaker 3: into the case. So what really surprised me is from
- 21:08Speaker 3: Friday evening when the judge was still reviewing the case,
- 21:12Speaker 3: and the lawyer said, hmm, the guy's really seeming like
- 21:15Speaker 3: he's into it. What happened between them and Monday when
- 21:20Speaker 3: he just determined arbitrary You know what, you don't have
- 21:22Speaker 3: standing because the rationale how somebody who was personally I
- 21:28Speaker 3: would agree. If the former radio station I worked for
- 21:32Speaker 3: was told by the judge you don't have standing, I
- 21:36Speaker 3: would have had a problem with that because I certainly
- 21:39Speaker 3: didn't think I deserved to be sued, but they had
- 21:42Speaker 3: the right to sue me. If one of the other
- 21:45Speaker 3: radio stations in town sued me, that would be a
- 21:48Speaker 3: different story. Yes, they wouldn't have standing. So the real
- 21:51Speaker 3: puzzlement is how you could say three people who are
- 21:55Speaker 3: going to be punished by one law trying to enjoin
- 21:58Speaker 3: them to break another don't have standing.
- 22:02Speaker 6: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas?
- 22:06Speaker 10: Yes?
- 22:07Speaker 6: Actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric

- 28:28Speaker 15: You're not gonna make this guy any sicker.
- 28:30Speaker 3: As we continue the autopsy of last night's election results
- 28:35Speaker 3: here in the lab on your slab. We appreciate you
- 28:39Speaker 3: joining us. And yes, I understand many of you are
- 28:42Speaker 3: not waking up this morning in a good mood. I
- 28:45Speaker 3: am trying to fix that because we live in the
- 28:48Speaker 3: greatest place in the world. And if you truly believe,
- 28:52Speaker 3: and this may be one of them their tests where
- 28:56Speaker 3: they're testing how much you believe, you really believe that
- 28:59Speaker 3: you rights come from God. We were talking about this
- 29:04Speaker 3: redistricting case. This is one of the folks we were
- 29:08Speaker 3: talking to. This was State Representative Tom Garrett form as
- 29:13Speaker 3: former congressman on what could come of this redistrict.
- 29:17Speaker 16: Succeed in doing this, it is conceivable that we'll have
- 29:19Speaker 16: ten Democrats in the one Republican because the pundits think
- 29:22Speaker 16: that the only part of the state that you can't
- 29:25Speaker 16: draw a blue is the southwesternmost corner. And what you
- 29:29Speaker 16: would have is large chunks of rural real estate radiating
- 29:33Speaker 16: inward towards population centers to the north, center and east.
- 29:37Speaker 3: That's what I call Bob Ross redistricting. We take our
- 29:41Speaker 3: we'll take our Prussian blue, and we'll put it on
- 29:43Speaker 3: our two inch knife and we'll put I don't know
- 29:46Speaker 3: why Bob Ross all of a sudden sounds like Ronald Reagan,
- 29:48Speaker 3: but I was trying. I was trying give a guy
- 29:51Speaker 3: credit for trying. Put your Prussian blue on your two
- 29:55Speaker 3: inch knife, and you put it right over Richmond, Virginia,
- 29:58Speaker 3: and you pull to the west. And that's what the
- 30:02Speaker 3: district map looks like. If you go to my social
- 30:04Speaker 3: media page, Seeville Joe Thomas, you will see it. And
- 30:07Speaker 3: I don't know, and nobody has been successful at telling
- 30:10Speaker 3: me what the judge's premise was. That these clerks didn't
- 30:14Speaker 3: have standing when they were the ones who were going
- 30:16Speaker 3: to be forced to break constitutional law by this new enjoinment.
- 30:23Speaker 3: But we will endeavor to find that out. Bob in
- 30:28Speaker 3: Moscow called a little while ago, had a great point
- 30:30Speaker 3: about the Snap story. President is saying, no, no, we're
- 30:34Speaker 3: complying with the judges order on Snap. And three states
- 30:38Speaker 3: out of fifty have come up with supplemental plans for
- 30:42Speaker 3: the supplemental Nutrition Aid program. And that's Virginia, Best Virginia,
- 30:48Speaker 3: which is its new nickname. Again, are we going to
- 30:51Speaker 3: start the vexit program again? Years ago in Virginia pre COVID,
- 30:56Speaker 3: there was a vexit campaign where all the along the
- 31:01Speaker 3: Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia apply to secede from Virginia
- 31:06Speaker 3: and join what they were then referring to as Best Virginia.
- 31:10Speaker 3: There So, let me get to Doctor Clark is hanging
- 31:14Speaker 3: on with us in Alabama where they didn't have to
- 31:16Speaker 3: do an autopsy on their election results of this morning, Doc,
- 31:20Speaker 3: how are you doing this morning, Joe?
- 31:24Speaker 23: I'm looking at a full moon going down, the makings
- 31:27Speaker 23: of a gorgeous sunrise, light mist, just a kind of
- 31:32Speaker 23: a peach colored sky to the east. It's a great
- 31:37Speaker 23: day in the morning. Not so good yesterday there though, Hey,
- 31:43Speaker 23: remind me, let's get to vexit in a minute, because
- 31:46Speaker 23: I got an idea there. Okay, Now, Joe, if you
- 31:51Speaker 23: showed up and tried, you did a lot more than most,
- 31:56Speaker 23: because first off, you got to show up and then
- 32:01Speaker 23: you got to try. And I swear, Joe, if we
- 32:06Speaker 23: won't play to win, sooner or later, we're gonna have
- 32:09Speaker 23: to fight to survive. Donald Trump cannot revitalize the brand
- 32:17Speaker 23: by himself, especially if the brand won't embrace him.
- 32:21Speaker 3: Well, yeah, because a lot of people who have you know,
- 32:23Speaker 3: a lot of people invested in the old brand are
- 32:26Speaker 3: still around saying, you know, it was a lot more
- 32:28Speaker 3: fun when we were just the outsiders.
- 32:30Speaker 23: You know, Well there's a lot more money in being
- 32:34Speaker 23: outsiders because you got to do a lot less work.
- 32:37Speaker 23: You don't have to deliver near as much.
- 32:39Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true.
- 32:41Speaker 23: So you know, it's a brand problem. People not showing
- 32:49Speaker 23: up is a brand problem.
- 32:53Speaker 3: Okay.
- 32:53Speaker 23: Charlie Brown's relucting to kick the football because Lucy pulls
- 32:57Speaker 23: it away and the Republicans have pulled the football away
- 33:04Speaker 23: and pulled the footballay, and it's getting harder and harder.
- 33:10Speaker 23: Charlie Brown in to run trying to kick it now.
- 33:13Speaker 3: So A two your question though, and I want to
- 33:16Speaker 3: give some statistics because people challenge me all the time
- 33:18Speaker 3: on this. So in twenty twenty one, when Winsom Sears
- 33:22Speaker 3: won the lieutenant governor's race in Virginia, she received and
- 33:27Speaker 3: I'm quoting here from Politico, one million, six hundred and
- 33:32Speaker 3: fifty eight, seven hundred and sixty seven votes. If she
- 33:38Speaker 3: had received that same number, she still would have lost
- 33:41Speaker 3: to Abigail Spanberger, who managed to find almost two million
- 33:46Speaker 3: votes out of Virginia's electorate to win fifty seven percent.
- 33:52Speaker 3: But Winsom Seers only had one point four four to
- 33:56Speaker 3: two million votes. So just in and of that, where
- 34:02Speaker 3: did those two hundred thousand votes go? And where did
- 34:09Speaker 3: the three hundred thousand new Democrats come from from Terry
- 34:14Speaker 3: mcculliff's total of one point six million in twenty twenty one.
- 34:19Speaker 23: Well, we know they can find some bees when they
- 34:22Speaker 23: need them. Yeah, So, did Abigail span Burger win because
- 34:28Speaker 23: people wanted Abigail span Burger to be their governor? Or
- 34:31Speaker 23: did Abigail span Burger win because she was the Democrat candidate?
- 34:36Speaker 3: The latter especially if j Jones is now the attorney general.
- 34:41Speaker 3: Even though he says I will target my opponents and
- 34:44Speaker 3: go after them with whatever I can do, whether it's
- 34:48Speaker 3: physical violence or not, he now has the apparatus for
- 34:51Speaker 3: four years to target his opponents in the same way
- 34:55Speaker 3: he talked about targeting. And maybe this is what you know.
- 34:59Speaker 3: One point eight million Virginians want. They want somebody to
- 35:04Speaker 3: go out and target the people they don't like. This
- 35:06Speaker 3: may be that let your rage fuel you moment, and
- 35:11Speaker 3: our neighbors are ready to pick up pitchforks and torches
- 35:14Speaker 3: and chase us up into Castel Frankenstein.
- 35:19Speaker 23: So people that identify as Democrats will go vote for
- 35:24Speaker 23: the brand.
- 35:25Speaker 3: Period.
- 35:27Speaker 23: The Republicans do not enjoy that. And the reason is, well,
- 35:31Speaker 23: let's move this way, Joe. Democrats never disappoint me. They
- 35:37Speaker 23: promised to go as far left as they.
- 35:39Speaker 3: Can and they always do. Yeah.
- 35:42Speaker 23: The Republicans, on the other hand, tell me that they
- 35:45Speaker 23: will retard that leftward progression, and they don't.
- 35:50Speaker 3: Man's not wrong until Donald Trump came along. And I
- 35:54Speaker 3: will say this, and.
- 35:56Speaker 23: Donald cannot do it by himself. He just can't.
- 36:01Speaker 17: Joe.
- 36:02Speaker 23: Now, the thing about Donald Trump not on the ticket, well, hell,
- 36:06Speaker 23: put him on the ticket from now on, I'll vote
- 36:10Speaker 23: best president ever. Okay, just put him on the ticket
- 36:13Speaker 23: and I'll show them vote for that. I'm gonna show
- 36:16Speaker 23: vote anyway. But hey, you know, make that a new
- 36:20Speaker 23: thing and you can just pick whoever you thought was
- 36:24Speaker 23: the best president ever. If Trump's on there, that'll get
- 36:26Speaker 23: people to show it, to vote on for it. Now, Vexit,
- 36:31Speaker 23: if we won't play to win, we will have to
- 36:33Speaker 23: fight to survive, Joe. You can flip Virginia to a
- 36:37Speaker 23: red state with a pen and.
- 36:40Speaker 3: A phone, real simple.
- 36:46Speaker 23: You take every single federal agency and you redistribute them
- 36:51Speaker 23: throughout the country.
- 36:52Speaker 3: Put them in blue states.
- 36:55Speaker 23: Get EPA in California, you put the IRS and Illinois.
- 37:01Speaker 23: You break it up. And I think Virginia is a
- 37:06Speaker 23: red state. There's two red senators and however many red
- 37:11Speaker 23: House and representatives. I think there's a good chance you
- 37:14Speaker 23: might flip Maryland.
- 37:15Speaker 16: Joe.
- 37:16Speaker 23: I'll have to look at it.
- 37:18Speaker 3: You might be able to fix it. You know, there
- 37:20Speaker 3: was a campaign very similar to Vexit. It was called
- 37:23Speaker 3: make d C Square Again. You remember the call to
- 37:30Speaker 3: to give d C statehood. Yes, so the Virginia Republican said, sure,
- 37:39Speaker 3: we'll go along with that. Take Arlington Virginia with you,
- 37:42Speaker 3: because if you look at the map, Arlington, Virginia and
- 37:46Speaker 3: what is Washington d C make a square on the map,
- 37:50Speaker 3: and if you took that, you could take the what
- 37:55Speaker 3: is it? Seventy nine almost eighty thousand votes off of
- 37:59Speaker 3: Abiga el span Burgers.
- 38:02Speaker 6: In a study, it was found that thirty three percent

- 39:08Speaker 6: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 39:13Speaker 6: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 39:19Speaker 6: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 39:23Speaker 6: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 39:27Speaker 6: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 39:32Speaker 6: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 39:37Speaker 6: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 39:43Speaker 6: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 39:46Speaker 6: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

- 41:05Speaker 26: I'm not only in all of their beauty and kindness,
- 41:07Speaker 26: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
- 41:09Speaker 26: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
- 41:13Speaker 26: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
- 41:16Speaker 26: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
- 41:18Speaker 26: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
- 41:21Speaker 26: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search

- 44:11Speaker 2: Well, there's no.
- 44:12Speaker 7: Question that jerry mandering is a threat to our democracy.
- 44:14Speaker 7: It allows politicians to pick their voters.
- 44:16Speaker 2: The first thing today by Joe Thomas on the Tunk
- 44:20Speaker 2: Media Network.
- 44:36Speaker 22: So here is in the election post mortem, you're seeing
- 44:44Speaker 22: clear exit wounds, seeing clear entry wounds, seeing self inflicted wounds.
- 44:52Speaker 3: Even before that, how do you fix it? This becomes
- 44:58Speaker 3: the bigger problem and one of the issues, and one
- 45:02Speaker 3: of the main issues here is the great society. So
- 45:09Speaker 3: if Virginia gets sixty percent voter turnout, ten percent of
- 45:14Speaker 3: Virginia's population lives below the poverty level. Another ten I've
- 45:21Speaker 3: seen numbers varying between ten and fifteen percent are what
- 45:25Speaker 3: we used to call the working poor. There's one of
- 45:28Speaker 3: these new speak crazy acronyms for them now, you know,
- 45:33Speaker 3: fancies or something like that, dandies. There's an acronym for
- 45:38Speaker 3: the people who have jobs but still spend a significant
- 45:47Speaker 3: portion of whatever they earn it their job on food
- 45:50Speaker 3: and housing, excess of seventy percent in some cases. So
- 45:57Speaker 3: you're already up at about twenty five to thirty Add
- 46:01Speaker 3: to that the people who don't want to actually do
- 46:03Speaker 3: anything about it. They see it, but they don't want
- 46:06Speaker 3: to actually do anything about it, but they fall prey
- 46:09Speaker 3: to a politician saying, look, twenty five percent of our
- 46:12Speaker 3: population is struggling. Vote for me and it will go away.
- 46:16Speaker 3: Vote for me and you'll be able to go home
- 46:18Speaker 3: and you will be able to say you did something
- 46:21Speaker 3: about it. And that's how you win when you get
- 46:27Speaker 3: a sixty percent voter turnout. It's a math game. It's
- 46:31Speaker 3: easy enough to get people to say, these people are
- 46:37Speaker 3: being targeted, these people are being harmed. I'm going to
- 46:41Speaker 3: defend it. The same groups. Democrats watch Braveheart just like
- 46:46Speaker 3: conservatives do. They believe themselves to be on that battlefield
- 46:52Speaker 3: or sending their citizens to that battlefield anyway, because they
- 47:02Speaker 3: believe that America is a broken society, a broken conceptual
- 47:08Speaker 3: society where there are people who are prospering because they
- 47:12Speaker 3: can make money. And I'm not going to deny that
- 47:14Speaker 3: there are things we did in the nineties and early
- 47:18Speaker 3: two thousands that changed how Wall Street and the banking
- 47:22Speaker 3: industry operated that need to be looked at. I can
- 47:25Speaker 3: be intellectually honest about that. Unfortunately, many of my brethren
- 47:30Speaker 3: and sister and who do what I do from a
- 47:32Speaker 3: different political pent can't say that. They'll just say it's greed.
- 47:38Speaker 3: It's Gordon Gecko, it's greed. People are greedy. There are
- 47:43Speaker 3: greedy Americans who have made a lot of money and
- 47:45Speaker 3: they're not sharing. And they use that ridiculous, mischaracterized Robin
- 47:51Speaker 3: Hood metaphor because so many people have never read Robin Hood.
- 47:59Speaker 3: They don't understand that Robin Hood was stealing from the
- 48:02Speaker 3: government to give to the tax to give back to
- 48:05Speaker 3: the taxpayers. So we we are in a perfect storm.
- 48:17Speaker 3: If conservatives don't turn out, they lose. Period. It happens
- 48:23Speaker 3: time and time again. I've covered enough of these. If
- 48:26Speaker 3: conservatives get into a battle of who is the perfect candidate,
- 48:30Speaker 3: who isn't they lose? And somebody said, well it's you know,
- 48:40Speaker 3: it's about division and the party. Glenn youngkin one in
- 48:44Speaker 3: Virginia and he faced what six other Republicans in the
- 48:50Speaker 3: primary when some sears had no primary. And maybe that's
- 48:57Speaker 3: part of the problem. But that's a them problem. That's
- 49:02Speaker 3: a Republican party problem, that's not a liberty problem. But
- 49:09Speaker 3: what's going to happen now? And the reason that so
- 49:13Speaker 3: much money had to be poured into New Jersey and
- 49:15Speaker 3: New York and Virginia into California's Prop fifty race. Is
- 49:20Speaker 3: that now they can draw these maps. And remember I've
- 49:23Speaker 3: told you if we had constitutional representation of these districts,
- 49:29Speaker 3: they wouldn't be able to do any of this. But
- 49:33Speaker 3: because of the racist Dixie krant drawn nineteen twenty nine
- 49:37Speaker 3: Permanent Reapportionment Act, here we are trying to go into
- 49:42Speaker 3: court to find injunctive relief against jerrymandering, which ironically, that's
- 49:48Speaker 3: Eric Holder talking about jerrymandering while he has been passing
- 49:52Speaker 3: out cash like you know, it's left over from Barack
- 49:55Speaker 3: Obama's last reelection campaign, handing it out to anyone who
- 50:03Speaker 3: wants to fight for all blue districts to try to
- 50:07Speaker 3: make America a congressional state that no president will ever win,
- 50:14Speaker 3: no Congress will ever be represented by Republican majorities ever again.
- 50:23Speaker 3: And it's classically elected officials picking their voters by the
- 50:28Speaker 3: very people who told us they wanted to fight that.
- 50:31Speaker 3: And then we had this case in Virginia where a
- 50:34Speaker 3: judge decided that the clerks that would be forced to
- 50:37Speaker 3: break the law didn't have standing. Somehow, that's the one
- 50:42Speaker 3: that I really it's befuddling to me in a whole
- 50:46Speaker 3: hat thing.
- 50:48Speaker 23: I'm going to tell you why they said they couldn't
- 50:50Speaker 23: hear the state. It's the case because of standing, Joe.
- 50:54Speaker 3: Oh you know, okay, cool, I've been trying to get
- 50:56Speaker 3: this information.
- 50:57Speaker 23: Because they could not possibly come up with a way
- 51:00Speaker 23: to make it national security.
- 51:03Speaker 3: Well but how was it? How would that even be
- 51:07Speaker 3: national security? They were saying they were being forced.
- 51:10Speaker 23: Tostanding, Joe. Every time we want to know something, why
- 51:15Speaker 23: can't we find out what something? National security?
- 51:20Speaker 3: All time?
- 51:22Speaker 23: This is the two excuses they have. It's racist and
- 51:26Speaker 23: sexist for hearing cases or releasing information.
- 51:31Speaker 3: It's the go tos, right, I see, it's the it's
- 51:34Speaker 3: the pad answer one from column A one from columb
- 51:38Speaker 3: We can't let you take this to court because it's
- 51:41Speaker 3: either national security or racist violation of the Voting Rights
- 51:47Speaker 3: Actor or something like that.
- 51:50Speaker 23: It's kind of like there was never evidence of fraud
- 51:53Speaker 23: in twenty and twenty. No, there was plenty of evidence
- 51:58Speaker 23: y'all just kept it out.
- 51:59Speaker 3: Of Again, you're discretion standing.
- 52:06Speaker 23: You don't have standing to bring this, so you don't
- 52:08Speaker 23: have evidence, ye know, if your cat had biscuits or
- 52:13Speaker 23: if your cat had kittens. In the end, I don't
- 52:15Speaker 23: like them biscuits. Y'all are playing with words.
- 52:18Speaker 3: Yes, that's what we pay lawyers five six seven dollars
- 52:22Speaker 3: an hour for.
- 52:25Speaker 23: I guess and you know here. Okay, clearly there's no
- 52:30Speaker 23: way we can win this case based on the merits.
- 52:36Speaker 23: Find a way around, find a way around front.
- 52:38Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't have standing. Yep, that's it. That seems
- 52:42Speaker 3: to be it. Hopefully the appeals process moves forward anyway,
- 52:45Speaker 3: Doctor Clark, You have a good morning, sir. Take care, Joe.
