0:00
Speaker 1: Thanks for indulging me ahead to get it out of
0:01
Speaker 1: my system. Welcome back, my friend. Love having you on
0:03
Speaker 1: the show.
0:05
Speaker 2: Oh, thank you so much. I love being on your show.
0:08
Speaker 2: So I appreciate the opportunities, you know. I want to
0:12
Speaker 2: start off with just wishing you and everyone you're listening
0:16
Speaker 2: to audience a happy Black Black History Month. Yeah, and
0:21
Speaker 2: you've entered Black We've entered Black History Months. And you
0:25
Speaker 2: know each time I the four times on my show
0:28
Speaker 2: with you, the smither Vent, I'm just going to drop
0:31
Speaker 2: a little knowledge before I go into the event, and
0:34
Speaker 2: I'll be brief about it. But first just note that
0:39
Speaker 2: this is American history. You know, at the end of
0:41
Speaker 2: the day we call it Black History Month, but it's
0:44
Speaker 2: American history. And I'm going to highlight I'm going to
0:47
Speaker 2: highlight tuch Gegee University and Institution because there are a
0:51
Speaker 2: lot of people in our country that do not know
0:53
Speaker 2: that HBCUs. Historically, black colleges and universities are all around
0:58
Speaker 2: us in United States of America. These are higher education
1:03
Speaker 2: institutions that are incredibly important to America. And my parents, uh,
1:10
Speaker 2: doctor Herbert Smitherman and Barbara Smitherman met at Tuskegee University
1:15
Speaker 2: in Alabama. My parents were both from Alabama. They did
1:18
Speaker 2: not have access to what would what we would call
1:22
Speaker 2: white American institutions. When they graduated from high school. They
1:27
Speaker 2: had to attend HBCUs. My parents were born in the
1:32
Speaker 2: nineteen thirties and so my mother was Miss Tuskegee. I'm
1:37
Speaker 2: very proud of that. I always tease my dad, how
1:40
Speaker 2: did you pull? Literally, how did you date the queen
1:44
Speaker 2: of Tuskegee. We would just laugh about that. I say, Dad,
1:49
Speaker 2: you had to have some serious games geevery I absolutely did,
2:01
Speaker 2: and I'm glad he did because if he did, that
2:03
Speaker 2: wouldn't exist.
2:05
Speaker 1: I with you.
2:08
Speaker 2: So that was a running joke in our family. But
2:12
Speaker 2: on a serious note, Tuskegee has been around since eighteen
2:15
Speaker 2: eighty one, so it's been around for one hundred and
2:17
Speaker 2: forty five years. It's a private institution located in Alabama.
2:24
Speaker 2: And you know, there are students that are graduating in
2:27
Speaker 2: May all across the city of Cincinnati, and they might
2:30
Speaker 2: be attending one of our HBCUs out end with this
2:34
Speaker 2: employers out there. When students are graduating from more House
2:38
Speaker 2: or Spellman or Howard or Tuskegee as examples of historically
2:41
Speaker 2: black colleges and universities. Look at those students very closely
2:46
Speaker 2: as you would look at them if they were coming
2:48
Speaker 2: from Harvard Yale, or if they were coming from the
2:51
Speaker 2: Ohio State University or Bowling Green State University or Miami, Ohio.
2:55
Speaker 2: These are great institutions. They educate really great students. And
3:00
Speaker 2: there are white students and Black students and Latino students
3:05
Speaker 2: now who attend all of these HBCUs. So that is
3:09
Speaker 2: my Black History Month start of just talking about American history.
3:15
Speaker 1: Fair enough. I honestly I know about historically black college
3:19
Speaker 1: and the universities understood in these very left leaning times
3:23
Speaker 1: and these racially charged learning exercises DEI and that kind
3:27
Speaker 1: of thing. Are you aware of whether these historically black
3:31
Speaker 1: college universities have adopted that sort of leftist mentality mantra
3:34
Speaker 1: that seemingly all universities have adopted, or have they sort
3:37
Speaker 1: of maintained that straightforward traditional so we say classical type education.
3:44
Speaker 2: Very very traditional education. If you remember, President Biden spoke
3:51
Speaker 2: at more Houses graduation. Everybody should google it. It was
3:56
Speaker 2: not shown on places like MSNBC. Many of those graduates
4:02
Speaker 2: stood and turned their back to President Biden. As he
4:06
Speaker 2: gave the keynote address approximately a year ago. So understand,
4:10
Speaker 2: when you go to these institutions, these students are very
4:13
Speaker 2: aware of history. They understood President Biden's history and lack
4:18
Speaker 2: of support of the African American community, and they were
4:21
Speaker 2: not happy that he was selected as their commencement speaker.
4:25
Speaker 2: But again, you would never see that shown right on TV,
4:30
Speaker 2: but that absolutely happened at Morehouse universities. You tend to
4:33
Speaker 2: have more conservative people who attend these institutions, and you know,
4:40
Speaker 2: many of them have Baptists or some type of religious
4:45
Speaker 2: foundations in many of the institutions that were established well.
4:49
Speaker 1: And there's that all critical element of religion which seems
4:52
Speaker 1: to be going the way of the Dodo in the
4:53
Speaker 1: United States. I think that may be part of the
4:55
Speaker 1: fundamental problem we face as a culture here, Christopher, Yes.
4:59
Speaker 2: In which you're see is many African American families are
5:02
Speaker 2: choosing to send their children to these historically black colleges
5:06
Speaker 2: and universities for exactly what you said. They want their
5:10
Speaker 2: children to have those same conservative, rooted values in faith
5:16
Speaker 2: that they had in their life. And so they graduated
5:19
Speaker 2: from a Wilberforce or they graduated from a central state
5:22
Speaker 2: and they want their children to get that same kind
5:24
Speaker 2: of rooted education in America. So yes, you're seeing a
5:29
Speaker 2: lot of because you're seeing a lot of white American
5:32
Speaker 2: families sending their children south, for example, to attend some
5:36
Speaker 2: of these institutions because they're concerned about their children being
5:41
Speaker 2: indoctrinated in the left mentality of the left environment. So again,
5:46
Speaker 2: these are great institutions. I encourage places like Proper and
5:50
Speaker 2: Gamble and Western Southern and Fifth Third who are locally
5:53
Speaker 2: if you have students that have graduated from these HBTU
5:56
Speaker 2: institutions like my father and like my mother. My father
6:00
Speaker 2: worked at Procter and Gamble was hired in the nineteen sixties.
6:03
Speaker 2: He was the first African American hired in the United
6:06
Speaker 2: States of America with a PhD's were our family is
6:09
Speaker 2: very honored by my father's accomplishments at Procter Gamble. My
6:13
Speaker 2: point is that these students that come out are the
6:16
Speaker 2: best and the brightest, and our institutions should be looking
6:20
Speaker 2: at those resumes very closely.
6:22
Speaker 1: I appreciate that you allowed me to Oh man, no,
6:25
Speaker 1: that's wonderful, Christopher, and I'm glad to hear what you
6:27
Speaker 1: just said. That's fantastic and it's different from what I
6:29
Speaker 1: would have presumed. So we'll bring Christopher back. Maybe he'll
6:32
Speaker 1: start venting his spleens. Since that was a great Upbroads,
6:37
Speaker 1: you've been warned. Christopher Smithman will be back. Be back
6:40
Speaker 1: just a minute. Here, you're finished the USA installation. I'll
6:42
Speaker 1: bet you wish you it's seven thirty here I fIF
6:50
Speaker 1: you have KCD talk station Brian Thomas with former Vice
6:52
Speaker 1: Mayor of the City Sincinnati, Christopher smith Avan doing a
6:55
Speaker 1: smith event. Time to launch. I guess three two one
7:00
Speaker 1: the drive.
7:00
Speaker 2: Brother. I tell you, I am very frustrated with the
7:04
Speaker 2: extreme left. You know, I've just been thinking about it
7:08
Speaker 2: all week. I'm tired of all of the protests. They're fake,
7:13
Speaker 2: you know when they're this is all regarding Ice. This
7:17
Speaker 2: is all made up because they're interested in power, getting power,
7:21
Speaker 2: controlling power, impacting the midterm elections. The most recent discussion
7:27
Speaker 2: about the shutdown and ICE. All of this is manufactured
7:31
Speaker 2: because the Democrats, right like Schumer, we're all supporting ICE.
7:37
Speaker 2: They're videos out there with speeches with President Clinton, President Obama,
7:42
Speaker 2: President Bush, all of them supporting ICE, all of them
7:45
Speaker 2: saying that they supported removing people who came to this
7:48
Speaker 2: country illegally and getting criminals, people who are gang members
7:53
Speaker 2: gang banging in our country. You're a visitor in our
7:57
Speaker 2: country and you're gang banging. Are the people that we
8:01
Speaker 2: are removing. We're removing people who are pedophilers, people who
8:05
Speaker 2: have right women, people who are drunk drivers and have
8:08
Speaker 2: killed families, whether it's whether they're whether they're traveling at
8:11
Speaker 2: an eighteen willer or they're driving drunk and they're hitting
8:14
Speaker 2: a van. We want those people out of our country.
8:18
Speaker 2: I do not understand the left right now and all
8:22
Speaker 2: of these fake protests when we're talking about removing criminals,
8:26
Speaker 2: and then when they moved to the illegitimate president of Venezuela.
8:31
Speaker 2: This was not the president of the United States of America.
8:33
Speaker 2: The Secretary of State in his testimony this week, really
8:37
Speaker 2: did a great job in front of the Senate hearing.
8:39
Speaker 2: Anybody who did not watch that should watch it. He
8:43
Speaker 2: did a masterful job answering the questions of the Democrats
8:46
Speaker 2: who with their demagogueing on things they didn't even know
8:49
Speaker 2: what they were talking about. But at the end of
8:51
Speaker 2: the day, when they removed this illegitimate president from Venezuela,
8:56
Speaker 2: by the way, pushed by Biden, by the way, putting
8:59
Speaker 2: this fifty million dollar bounty on his head to have
9:04
Speaker 2: him arrested. He would he had an warrant out for
9:08
Speaker 2: his arrest by the United States of America under the
9:11
Speaker 2: Democrat And so these all of these fake protests that
9:14
Speaker 2: were happening that they were so angry by it. I
9:17
Speaker 2: am just tired of it. And the last point is
9:20
Speaker 2: burning our flag. I started with Tuskegee, the Tuskegee Airmen,
9:25
Speaker 2: Tuskegee University, Tuskegee Institute, being around one hundred and forty
9:29
Speaker 2: five years. Look, African Americans, White Americans, Latino Americans, we
9:34
Speaker 2: are very patriotic. We love our country. We don't like
9:37
Speaker 2: seeing people burning our flag and peeing on our flag.
9:41
Speaker 2: That is insane behavior from the extreme left. If you
9:46
Speaker 2: don't like our country, get out. We'll pay for it,
9:50
Speaker 2: Brian Thomas will pay for it. We'll have a pool
9:52
Speaker 2: for it, we'll do split the pot. We will do
9:55
Speaker 2: whatever we have to do to pay for a ticket
9:58
Speaker 2: to get you the head out of the United States
10:01
Speaker 2: of America. If you don't like our.
10:03
Speaker 1: Country, yeah, well self deport that's an option for illegal
10:07
Speaker 1: immigrants who want the option to be able to try
10:10
Speaker 1: to apply for legal citizenship. I think it's like a
10:12
Speaker 1: twenty five hundred dollars check up from one thousand previously
10:15
Speaker 1: and a flight home. At least keeps your place available
10:18
Speaker 1: for the option of trying it, trying it legally. And
10:21
Speaker 1: you don't take that option if you're picked up, maybe
10:23
Speaker 1: because you did rape a child or something. Out you
10:26
Speaker 1: go after you serve your prison sentence here and off
10:28
Speaker 1: you go, and you'll never be eligible to come to
10:30
Speaker 1: the United States again, right.
10:32
Speaker 2: Period, right period. And the crazy thing about it is
10:36
Speaker 2: I want everybody to make sure you understand that I
10:40
Speaker 2: appreciate legal immigration. We are a country of immigrants. And
10:46
Speaker 2: by the way, those are the people get up every
10:50
Speaker 2: day listening to your show working their butts off. And
10:54
Speaker 2: it's not like, oh, I'm working my butt off. It's
10:56
Speaker 2: amazing how the Democrats say I'm worried about removing immigran
11:00
Speaker 2: it's because they're the ones that are doing the labor. Look,
11:02
Speaker 2: there are lots of immigrants in this country that do
11:05
Speaker 2: that very noble work. Work in our hotels, work in
11:08
Speaker 2: the restaurant businesses, clean our homes. I respect them. Deeply
11:13
Speaker 2: for their hard work period. But there are also people
11:16
Speaker 2: that come here who are doctors, who are lawyers, who
11:19
Speaker 2: are accountants, who are scientists, who are contributing to our society,
11:23
Speaker 2: making this country great, serving our country and our military
11:27
Speaker 2: every single day, dying for our country every single year.
11:31
Speaker 2: These are people who have immigrated to our country legally,
11:35
Speaker 2: followed the process, became an American citizen, or they're working
11:39
Speaker 2: here legally on the right identification. Those are great people
11:44
Speaker 2: that are not being deported. No one is focused on
11:48
Speaker 2: those people. And the reality of it is when you
11:50
Speaker 2: listen to the Democrats who continue to lie about this
11:53
Speaker 2: on the left, they keep acting as if those are
11:56
Speaker 2: the people that Ice are targeting. That is an absolute
11:59
Speaker 2: total lot.
12:02
Speaker 1: Let's pause, We'll bring Christopher back. He's on a tear.
12:04
Speaker 1: I got a couple of questions for you too, Christopher,
12:06
Speaker 1: but we'll let you hear. You'll let you get it
12:08
Speaker 1: out of your system, and I can ask you a
12:10
Speaker 1: couple of questions along the lines of what you just
12:11
Speaker 1: mentioned there. But first, fast and pro roofing the best
12:14
Speaker 1: roofers around. And you know, obviously we have a difficult
12:17
Speaker 1: winter situation going on here. Six nine about Keroseit Talk
12:25
Speaker 1: Station Monday, which means we're in the middle of the
12:27
Speaker 1: smither Van former vice mayor of the City of Cincinna,
12:29
Speaker 1: joins the program for a few segments every Monday. We'll
12:31
Speaker 1: here from Mondy Monday, Brian James at the top of
12:33
Speaker 1: the Aaron News. Would you like to continue your rand? Christopher.
12:37
Speaker 1: I know you're not done yet, I.
12:39
Speaker 2: Really do you know? The Grammy Awards were yesterday. I
12:43
Speaker 2: went to the school. I went to the school. See
12:47
Speaker 2: that reaction, that's perfect.
12:48
Speaker 1: That's getting me going on that man, go ahead.
12:52
Speaker 2: It's a perfect reaction. See the Grammy Awards. I went
12:55
Speaker 2: to the School for Creative and Performing Arts. I graduated
12:58
Speaker 2: from Cincinnati Public public Education. And many of my brothers,
13:03
Speaker 2: many of my siblings graduated the majority, super majority of them,
13:08
Speaker 2: graduated from public education. Look, these are people the Grammy Awards.
13:13
Speaker 2: Let's be clear here, very super wealthy people. Number one.
13:18
Speaker 2: I'm happy. I'm not player hating on their successes. But
13:23
Speaker 2: many of them are walking around with private security, not one,
13:28
Speaker 2: not two, not three, not four, five or six bodyguards
13:32
Speaker 2: around each one of them. It was one of the
13:34
Speaker 2: safest places in a branch right because everybody is around
13:39
Speaker 2: there with their own private security, living in their big
13:42
Speaker 2: mansions with their big, beautiful gates. They have no place
13:47
Speaker 2: standing on mics and dogging out our country. One person's
13:51
Speaker 2: making comments about stolen land. Let me be clear. Let
13:55
Speaker 2: me be clear to everybody listening here. My grandmother, who
14:00
Speaker 2: was born in the early nineteen hundreds, right, spent a
14:04
Speaker 2: long period of time in her life without the ability
14:08
Speaker 2: to vote in this country, being a woman and being
14:10
Speaker 2: African American, And she loved this country. Her grandparents, her parents, right,
14:16
Speaker 2: and grandparents, these they were free flames. My mother's grandparents
14:21
Speaker 2: were just out of that, born in the eighteen hundreds.
14:24
Speaker 2: This is my mother now, who's eighty seven years old.
14:28
Speaker 2: They my mother loves this country. My father loves this country.
14:33
Speaker 2: These people are privileged, living a privileged life, dogging out
14:37
Speaker 2: a country that has given them so much. Is it
14:42
Speaker 2: blows my mind listening to these grammary people get up
14:46
Speaker 2: there and dog out of country that has given them
14:49
Speaker 2: so much. I don't care about their political positions about anything.
14:54
Speaker 2: I don't want to hear about it. I don't want to.
14:56
Speaker 2: I don't want to. I don't want to know anything
14:58
Speaker 2: about what their perspective is sing your songs, let me
15:01
Speaker 2: enjoy the music that you create, and stay the heck
15:05
Speaker 2: out of politic Yeah.
15:06
Speaker 1: I share that sentiment all day long. And in fact,
15:08
Speaker 1: as I pointed out over the years, you know, a
15:10
Speaker 1: lot of the bands that I've liked over the years
15:11
Speaker 1: are very sort of left leading, even though some of
15:14
Speaker 1: the lyrics reflect that. But if you can provide me
15:17
Speaker 1: with some insight and some thoughts, some legitimate an appearance
15:21
Speaker 1: that you actually gave what you were saying, some thought
15:23
Speaker 1: you know, comes together, and the music is good, I'm
15:25
Speaker 1: probably gonna like it, even though I don't agree with
15:27
Speaker 1: it politically. You know, that's okay, But you have sold
15:32
Speaker 1: something to the American people that the American people want,
15:34
Speaker 1: as demonstrated by your success and all that money you
15:37
Speaker 1: just pointed out. So do what you're good at, shut
15:40
Speaker 1: up and sing, right.
15:43
Speaker 2: That's right. But the thing, Brian, is they're making all
15:45
Speaker 2: their money off the back of the United States of America. Mean,
15:49
Speaker 2: that's the hypocrisy, like the country that is generating where
15:53
Speaker 2: you are worth fifty million dollars, right, you then stand
15:57
Speaker 2: on a mic and dog out the United States of America,
16:01
Speaker 2: right while you live in a gated home. While you're
16:05
Speaker 2: walking around with bodyguards, you have guns like it's totally insane,
16:10
Speaker 2: while you're flying around in private jets talking about the environment.
16:14
Speaker 2: It makes no sense to me. Most of the people
16:17
Speaker 2: are in there are nothing but hypocrites. The only thing
16:20
Speaker 2: I want them to do is make music and shut up.
16:23
Speaker 2: That's it. I don't want to hear anything about their politics.
16:26
Speaker 2: And by the way, they have nothing in common with
16:28
Speaker 2: a guy by the name of Vice President JD. Vance
16:32
Speaker 2: who came from nothing. This guy had nothing, his mother,
16:37
Speaker 2: his family, how we lived. This man then became the
16:40
Speaker 2: Vice President of the United States of America. And you
16:43
Speaker 2: sit there in your plush homes, in your gated communities,
16:47
Speaker 2: and you look down on somebody like JD. Vance, who
16:50
Speaker 2: came essentially from America, from the streets and the gutters,
16:54
Speaker 2: and became the vice President of the United States of America.
16:58
Speaker 2: I'd rather have lunch with him than I would with
17:01
Speaker 2: any of those people who were opening their mouths yesterday.
17:03
Speaker 2: I can't even watch the Grammys anymore because I don't
17:06
Speaker 2: want to hear about their politics. I don't even watch
17:08
Speaker 2: that trash. I don't want it in my head. I
17:11
Speaker 2: don't want it in my children's hit because it's nothing
17:13
Speaker 2: but trash.
17:14
Speaker 1: Well, it's nothing but trash in a circular pleasure fest
17:17
Speaker 1: from the very people who are parroting exactly what you're
17:19
Speaker 1: talking about. Hey, how come none of them had mentioned
17:22
Speaker 1: redistribution of the royalties earned by all artists in the
17:27
Speaker 1: interest of fairness and equity. So you have achieved success
17:30
Speaker 1: because of your musical ability. Call it that you've done really,
17:34
Speaker 1: really well. But you know what, there are a thousand
17:35
Speaker 1: artists that have all tried to publish their material, posted
17:38
Speaker 1: the material online, maybe even have record contracts. They haven't
17:40
Speaker 1: sold anywhere near what you sold. You are apparently part
17:44
Speaker 1: of the privileged elite. You know the problem in this country.
17:47
Speaker 1: You need to give up and relinquish some of that
17:49
Speaker 1: redistributed all those other people who haven't done quite as
17:52
Speaker 1: well as you. How about that?
17:53
Speaker 2: He exactly? I mean, it's a beautiful play that you're making. Man,
18:00
Speaker 2: Nobody there is saying I'm willing to give up my royalties.
18:03
Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, they're sewing. They're suing every
18:07
Speaker 2: single distribution center for their music, saying they want every
18:11
Speaker 2: single rant scent every time their music is played. They're
18:15
Speaker 2: charging every bar in every restaurant feeds if they play
18:19
Speaker 2: their music. Anyway, many of these bars and restaurants around
18:23
Speaker 2: this region are writing checks like twenty thousand dollars a
18:26
Speaker 2: year just to play their freaking music and have and
18:30
Speaker 2: so that these artists get their royalties who are represented
18:33
Speaker 2: by unions. You are so right, Brian Thomas. I had
18:37
Speaker 2: not even thought about that point. As they're fanning there,
18:41
Speaker 2: talking with their Mrpocracy and collecting their royalties.
18:45
Speaker 1: I just love the opportunity to feed off your rent
18:47
Speaker 1: stick around. I do want to raise a couple of
18:49
Speaker 1: questions with you when we come back, Christopher smith and
18:51
Speaker 1: hold you over for the whole time thinking about KARSD
18:56
Speaker 1: Talk Station. Have be Monday Money Money with Brian James
18:59
Speaker 1: up the air news in the meantime, hold over with
19:01
Speaker 1: Christopher Smithman because you brought up in the bottom of
19:04
Speaker 1: the ar at seven thirty, Christopher, the whole idea that
19:06
Speaker 1: this anti ice their efforts to throw out hardened criminals
19:10
Speaker 1: and rapists and murders and just any number of crime.
19:13
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, you probably name any crime
19:15
Speaker 1: you've got illustrations of an illegal immigrant committing in here.
19:18
Speaker 1: People have died here in the United States, on and
19:20
Speaker 1: on and on, well documented. So how come it is
19:23
Speaker 1: now the Democrats are all screaming about border enforcement, and
19:26
Speaker 1: they're all screaming about ICE and their activities, and they
19:28
Speaker 1: hate it, and ice is evil. We need a defund
19:30
Speaker 1: ice question. And I'll give props to Larry Elder over
19:35
Speaker 1: I believe Let me see, I believe it his Daily
19:37
Speaker 1: call er. It doesn't matter where it got it, but
19:39
Speaker 1: Larry Elder gets credit for this anyway. He pulled out
19:41
Speaker 1: some quotes. Let me ask you, Christopher Smithman, who said
19:45
Speaker 1: this quote, We simply cannot allow people to pour it
19:49
Speaker 1: into the United States, undetected, undocumented, unchecked, and circumventing the
19:52
Speaker 1: line of people who are waiting patiently, diligently, and lawfully
19:56
Speaker 1: to become immigrants in this country. Would that be Donald Trump?
20:00
Speaker 1: Or would that be.
20:02
Speaker 2: Barack Obama?
20:03
Speaker 1: Actually, Senator of Barack Obama. You're right, you got the
20:05
Speaker 1: right guy. Two thousand and five. That's a quote ready
20:07
Speaker 1: quote number two. Real reform means stronger border security, putting
20:11
Speaker 1: more boots on the southern border than at any time
20:13
Speaker 1: in our history, and reducing illegal crossings to their lowest
20:16
Speaker 1: level in forty years. Trump or Obama Clinton. Nope, Obama,
20:21
Speaker 1: I'm going to you were CLUBB. We'll get to him.
20:27
Speaker 1: That was Obama in twenty thirteen. Now here's a curve ball. Think,
20:31
Speaker 1: senators and very powerful ones. Illegal immigration is wrong, plain
20:34
Speaker 1: and simple. People who enter the United States without our
20:36
Speaker 1: permission are illegal aliens, and illegal aliens should not be
20:39
Speaker 1: treated the same as people who enter our country legally.
20:42
Speaker 1: Until the American people are convinced that we will stop
20:44
Speaker 1: future flows of illegal immigration, we will make no progress
20:47
Speaker 1: on dealing with the millions of illegal immigrants who are
20:49
Speaker 1: here now. We will use phrases like undocumented workers. We
20:52
Speaker 1: convey a message to the American people that their government
20:55
Speaker 1: is not serious about combating illegal immigration. If you don't
20:59
Speaker 1: think it's illegal, you're not gonna say it. And I
21:02
Speaker 1: think it's illegal and wrong. Close quote Senator Chucky Schumer
21:08
Speaker 1: two thousand and nine. You get a star quote. Because
21:11
Speaker 1: we do need to address the issue of immigration and
21:14
Speaker 1: the challenges we have of undocumented people in our country.
21:17
Speaker 1: We certainly don't want any more coming in. Think of powerful,
21:22
Speaker 1: powerful House speakers. Nancy Pelosi, Nancy Pelosi two eight here's
21:31
Speaker 1: another one going. Okay, you called this one a little
21:34
Speaker 1: early Bill Clinton, nineteen ninety five. All Americans are rightly
21:37
Speaker 1: disturbed by the large numbers of illegal aliens entering our country.
21:41
Speaker 1: We are a nation of immigrants, but we are also
21:43
Speaker 1: a nation of laws. And then, finally, if making it
21:48
Speaker 1: easy to be an illegal alien isn't enough, how about
21:51
Speaker 1: offering award for being an illegal immigrant? No sane country
21:56
Speaker 1: would do that. Right, if you break our laws by
21:59
Speaker 1: entering this country without permission and give birth to a child,
22:02
Speaker 1: we reward that child with US citizenship. Was that evil
22:05
Speaker 1: Orange man? Or was that Senator Harry Reid Christopher knowing
22:09
Speaker 1: the answer the question ahead of time? Where the hell
22:13
Speaker 1: do these people go? Oh, that's right, they're still there.
22:17
Speaker 2: We all should post these quotes on our social media platforms.
22:22
Speaker 2: I don't. It drives democrats crazy when they hear these
22:26
Speaker 2: fact patterns, right, Like, just weeding all of those is
22:29
Speaker 2: just totally insane, Like you should do that every single week.
22:33
Speaker 2: It is because there's so many quotes out there, by
22:36
Speaker 2: these big statements that they've made over the years. It's
22:39
Speaker 2: just absolutely amazing. Let me end by saying this to you.
22:43
Speaker 2: The election in November coming up is huge. We have
22:47
Speaker 2: a gubernatorial race right. We have Governor vivek Ramaswami, who
22:52
Speaker 2: I am supporting for governor state of Ohio. Listen, we
22:57
Speaker 2: must elect him. I do not want to look like
23:00
Speaker 2: Vigina is looking right now. They made a mistake. We
23:03
Speaker 2: can look at the mistake that they made and make
23:06
Speaker 2: sure that we do not repeat that mistake. That is
23:10
Speaker 2: incredibly important to me and important to the state of
23:13
Speaker 2: Ohio that we secure what's happening at the state for
23:16
Speaker 2: the next eight years. You know, our counties, our cities
23:19
Speaker 2: are going so liberal and so blue. There's no way
23:22
Speaker 2: I want to see the state of Ohio and it
23:24
Speaker 2: end up in that kind of part. I don't want
23:26
Speaker 2: to wake up and see David Pepper, who who has
23:30
Speaker 2: lived a very privileged life, whereas the vek Ramaswami came
23:35
Speaker 2: from most likely a middle class family with to say
23:37
Speaker 2: that family worked very hard, he was a businessman, made
23:41
Speaker 2: some good decisions, became very very wealthy. That is not
23:44
Speaker 2: true for David Pepper. And I'm not hating on David
23:47
Speaker 2: Pepper and his family for doing well and making sure
23:51
Speaker 2: that he lived a very privileged life. But David Pepper
23:54
Speaker 2: has to own that. Stop acting as if you are
23:58
Speaker 2: just the champion for public education when he's spent and
24:01
Speaker 2: his family spent their entire life making sure he avoided
24:05
Speaker 2: public education, and they sent him to the best private
24:08
Speaker 2: schools at every single level, whether it was preschool, whether
24:12
Speaker 2: it was grade school, whether it was high school, or
24:15
Speaker 2: whether it was his university study. All of it is
24:18
Speaker 2: baked in private. And so when we talk about school choice,
24:22
Speaker 2: meaning David Pepper doesn't want poor people, whether they're black
24:26
Speaker 2: or Latino or white, to have the same choice that
24:29
Speaker 2: his family was able to pay for.
24:32
Speaker 1: Christopher Smithman all he's knocking out of the park, my friend.
24:34
Speaker 1: I look forward to next Monday in another smith event.
24:36
Speaker 1: As always, I hope you have a fantastic week, brother,
24:39
Speaker 1: and best of health to you and all your loved ones.
