- 0:07Speaker 1: Five O five fifty five k r C the talk
- 0:12Speaker 1: station Wednesdays. I'm Donald J.
- 0:30Speaker 2: Trump.
- 0:30Speaker 1: Can I improve this message? And thankfully I can read
- 0:32Speaker 1: a lot faster than the uh Donald Trump can speak.
- 0:37Speaker 1: Happy Wednesday by Thomas right here. Just got done reading
- 0:39Speaker 1: the entire speech last night, record setter in terms of
- 0:42Speaker 1: state of the Union addresses, we would come into like
- 0:44Speaker 1: an hour plus hour twenty or something like that anyway,
- 0:48Speaker 1: and I actually it reads pretty damn well. I normally
- 0:51Speaker 1: struggle with reading Donald Trump because quite often, you know,
- 0:54Speaker 1: it's with with with with speech. You know, there's there's
- 0:58Speaker 1: conversational speech which doesn't necessarily look like grammatically correct speech,
- 1:02Speaker 1: and so when you're reading something, you're like, why did
- 1:04Speaker 1: he repeat that so many times? Why did you Well,
- 1:06Speaker 1: if you're not listening to somebody live, when you read
- 1:08Speaker 1: a transcript, it just doesn't come across as well. So
- 1:11Speaker 1: having just read the full transcript, I didn't encounter a
- 1:13Speaker 1: whole lot of that. It was very succinct. I had
- 1:15Speaker 1: to the speechwriter's congratulations hitting home runs across the board.
- 1:19Speaker 1: Will I'll get into that in just a minute. Want
- 1:20Speaker 1: to let you know what's coming up with the fifty
- 1:21Speaker 1: five Carson warning, sh and this is your phone calls.
- 1:23Speaker 1: Maybe you got a comment reaction to it. Did you
- 1:25Speaker 1: stay up and watch the whole thing? Are you awake? Now?
- 1:27Speaker 1: Even if you did stay up, I did not watch
- 1:29Speaker 1: it live. And that's typically the case with me. I
- 1:31Speaker 1: get up at two thirty. I'm just not able to
- 1:32Speaker 1: stay up that late. So you know, forgive me. I
- 1:35Speaker 1: need to at least have some sense of awareness as
- 1:36Speaker 1: I do. The morning show. Coming up with the fifty
- 1:38Speaker 1: five Cassee Morning Show seven oh five. It is Wednesday,
- 1:41Speaker 1: The Big Picture with Jack Atherton. Democrats should thank Fox News,
- 1:45Speaker 1: says Jack Addden. I'm looking forward to hearing his analysis
- 1:48Speaker 1: on that, but then again, it's always a great analysis
- 1:50Speaker 1: whatever he's talking about. Jack, love your brother, you're out there.
- 1:52Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to seven oh five, follow by Donald
- 1:54Speaker 1: and Neil. Americans were prosperity. He's going to give us
- 1:56Speaker 1: his assessment of the supre the state of the Union
- 1:58Speaker 1: address with his thoughts on the same thing, plus the
- 2:02Speaker 1: Cincinnati Exchange, which is his new website. It's growing by
- 2:05Speaker 1: leaps and bounds. Adam Keller returns to the Morning Show
- 2:08Speaker 1: at eight oh five. Yes it's Wednesday. Judge Ennitor politano
- 2:11Speaker 1: perfect a price of perfect nihilism, and maybe we'll talk
- 2:16Speaker 1: about congressional in action. Keep asking out loud, why nobody
- 2:18Speaker 1: in the I mean even the left, nobody's saying anything
- 2:22Speaker 1: about Trump getting ready to push the button and launch
- 2:24Speaker 1: a war against Iran. It's methodically being built up the ships,
- 2:29Speaker 1: the carrier groups in the region. We're building up our
- 2:32Speaker 1: military troop presidence around the country Iran. And I just
- 2:37Speaker 1: keep waiting. For some Democrats, It's like, hold up, excuse me.
- 2:40Speaker 1: The Constitution says the declaration of war is a responsibility
- 2:44Speaker 1: or a power that rests in the hands of Congress.
- 2:46Speaker 1: Is no one willing to just sort of raise that point,
- 2:49Speaker 1: I mean even as a discussion point to talk about
- 2:51Speaker 1: the like maybe constitutional theory or something. Nothing. Silence to
- 2:56Speaker 1: me is deafening on that one. Anyway. I love honor

- 3:47Speaker 1: listen wherever you happen to be. Anyway, does quick analysis
- 3:50Speaker 1: of the speech here if I can be quick about it?
- 3:52Speaker 1: Started out, you know, a nice little introduction, few paragraphs
- 3:55Speaker 1: that we go straight to the border. Then our border
- 3:58Speaker 1: is secure and you know City of Cincinnati might want
- 4:02Speaker 1: to you know, check itself. I mean, he pointed out
- 4:08Speaker 1: millions of illegal areas aliens and this is the other
- 4:10Speaker 1: thing I sort of took away from the speech. He
- 4:13Speaker 1: did a really good job of pointing out Democrats, notably
- 4:16Speaker 1: when he asked people to, you know, to stand if
- 4:18Speaker 1: you agree that American interests ye are ahead of those
- 4:23Speaker 1: of illegal immigrants. I'll get to the exact quote on that,
- 4:25Speaker 1: but the Democrats did not stand up, and I don't
- 4:28Speaker 1: believe they did themselves a whole lot of favors by
- 4:30Speaker 1: not standing up to that. He was focused on the criminal,
- 4:33Speaker 1: illegal elements, but in the lead up to the comment,
- 4:36Speaker 1: he said, you know, who doesn't agree with that, or
- 4:37Speaker 1: who who agrees with that? All the Republicans stand up
- 4:40Speaker 1: in clap, and all the Democrats sit down? Whose interests
- 4:44Speaker 1: are first and foremost? Don't you think, as an elected
- 4:48Speaker 1: official in the United States of America, given the the
- 4:50Speaker 1: constitutional republic that we find ourselves in, thankfully, that you
- 4:54Speaker 1: owe an obligation to your citizens over those of other
- 5:00Speaker 1: people foreign countries, citizens of foreign nations. I mean, isn't
- 5:04Speaker 1: that just the fundamental principle? I mean, you're allowed to prioritize.
- 5:11Speaker 1: Isn't that what we're why we have countries and borders
- 5:14Speaker 1: so the people within running that geographical area can try
- 5:18Speaker 1: to advance their interest over those of other countries who
- 5:21Speaker 1: are trying things a different way. Huh. Let's observe over
- 5:24Speaker 1: the past multiple thousands of years of human existence on
- 5:28Speaker 1: this planet, what countries principles and well, we'll say just
- 5:33Speaker 1: doctrine and dogma. However, you want to characterize political philosophy,
- 5:36Speaker 1: which one arose and emerged as the most powerful, most
- 5:40Speaker 1: successful in the history of the globe. Yeah, we're standing
- 5:43Speaker 1: in it. That is because our elected officials, with you know,
- 5:48Speaker 1: with some notable exceptions, tried to advance our interests without
- 5:52Speaker 1: the interests of every other man human at every other
- 5:54Speaker 1: human being in the planet. Civil question, whose interests matter
- 5:59Speaker 1: the most to you as an American elected official? The
- 6:04Speaker 1: Democrats don't stand. It's kind of strange, isn't it. And
- 6:07Speaker 1: tell me that isn't going to make the rounds coming
- 6:08Speaker 1: up into the election in November. You're going to see
- 6:11Speaker 1: that perpetually rolled on video for every candidate and running
- 6:13Speaker 1: for public office on their Republican side. Adihow, Sorry, I
- 6:18Speaker 1: was meant to get further into the speech, and I
- 6:20Speaker 1: only made it a page one and I didn't even
- 6:23Speaker 1: get to the part in the speech where he brought
- 6:24Speaker 1: that up, but he did mention totally unvetted and unchecked.
- 6:29Speaker 1: And as the City of Cincinnati talks about the safety
- 6:31Speaker 1: of the community, ensure the safety of our residents and
- 6:34Speaker 1: mitigate threats of violence, and that, of course is a
- 6:37Speaker 1: city that's Ryan James, councilmember, seeking to protect our residents
- 6:43Speaker 1: from the threat of Immigrations and Customs enforcement surveillance. Yeah,
- 6:46Speaker 1: they entertained this motion the other day. What we saw
- 6:53Speaker 1: in Minnesota is absolutely tragic. We must take every action
- 6:56Speaker 1: we can to ensure our local tools and resources are
- 6:59Speaker 1: not being used to unlawfully target and terrorize our residents.
- 7:02Speaker 1: That's statement from Anna. I'll be at the Cities Youth
- 7:09Speaker 1: and Human Services Committee where they unanimously voted to advance
- 7:13Speaker 1: motions to a full city council. One to protect our
- 7:18Speaker 1: residents from the federal Immigrations and Customs Enforcement surveillance, list
- 7:23Speaker 1: the programs to collect residence citizen status they want the
- 7:26Speaker 1: okay real briefly here pivoting over to how this you know,
- 7:29Speaker 1: the Trump speech last night and in the actions of
- 7:32Speaker 1: council the other day kind of collide. So this motion
- 7:36Speaker 1: demands the city provide a list of every program that
- 7:40Speaker 1: collects residence citizens status. Motion also has city manager sharel
- 7:45Speaker 1: Long to remove any questions about a person's immigration status.
- 7:50Speaker 1: Why well, if you listen to Council Member James, as
- 7:55Speaker 1: a welcoming city for immigrant and refugee communities, it is
- 7:58Speaker 1: our responsibility as public servants to ensure the safety of
- 8:01Speaker 1: our residents and mitigate threats of violence. All right, this
- 8:05Speaker 1: is connected with illegal emmerts. What's the problem we have
- 8:07Speaker 1: with certain illegal immigrant countries? Not all of them, mind you.
- 8:10Speaker 1: Some have vetting, some have criminal records, some keep pretty
- 8:14Speaker 1: good tabs on their citizenship. In other words, those countries
- 8:17Speaker 1: are able to provide us here in the United States
- 8:20Speaker 1: information so we can vet those across our border illegally.
- 8:24Speaker 1: Is that person or criminal? Does he or she represent
- 8:27Speaker 1: effect to the community? Are they a rapist, a child molester,
- 8:31Speaker 1: someone who has been convicted of a crime, who has
- 8:33Speaker 1: wanted a crime in your country? Uh? I'm sorry, we
- 8:37Speaker 1: don't keep those records. Say many countries so corrupt they
- 8:41Speaker 1: may be, or so overwhelmed they don't have the resources
- 8:44Speaker 1: to keep that kind of information. If you can't as
- 8:50Speaker 1: a country, tell us if this person is a threat
- 8:53Speaker 1: to our community, how in the hell are we supposed to?
- 8:57Speaker 1: Therein lies the challenge, So are you protecting residents of
- 9:03Speaker 1: any given community by not asking for the immigration stentnis
- 9:07Speaker 1: and not seeing if this person has been vetted, if
- 9:09Speaker 1: they're in our community as a consequence of an illegal
- 9:11Speaker 1: border crossing. Huh, No, I guess you can't, can you? Jeez?
- 9:21Speaker 1: And he pointed out early on, we'll always welcome people
- 9:23Speaker 1: into this country legally. He noted, fentanyl production or fentanyl
- 9:27Speaker 1: is down dramatically in this country. Gasoline prices are dropped dramatically.
- 9:32Speaker 1: Here's a pat on the back. How about a two
- 9:33Speaker 1: dollars gallon gasoline versus six dollars? Mortgage rate's lowest now
- 9:37Speaker 1: in four years. That happened earlier in the week with
- 9:39Speaker 1: dropping below six percent mortgage rate, stock market fifty three
- 9:42Speaker 1: all time records since his election. Obviously, anybody with a
- 9:45Speaker 1: four to one K plan or other kind of retirement account,
- 9:47Speaker 1: including pensioners, millions and millions of additional dollars pumping into that,
- 9:52Speaker 1: if not billions across the board. Hmm. All the investments
- 9:56Speaker 1: coming in from foreign nations. He said, it was eighteen
- 9:59Speaker 1: t billion dollars compared to Biden's one trillion over four years.
- 10:03Speaker 1: That's pretty impressive, even if the number is a rounding
- 10:05Speaker 1: up figure. Oil production up, ergo, the price of gasoline down.
- 10:10Speaker 1: More Americans working today than other times. The honered the
- 10:13Speaker 1: Olympic hockey team gave the Presidential Medal of Freedom to
- 10:17Speaker 1: the to the goalie who, obviously Connor did a great
- 10:20Speaker 1: job in that game. So there he's got his award.
- 10:23Speaker 1: Opportunity to stand up and clap. Coastguard rescue schoomer Scott
- 10:27Speaker 1: Ruskin got a Legion of Merit for extraordinary heroism despite
- 10:35Speaker 1: his first ever rescue mission. Let's see here. Who else
- 10:41Speaker 1: was mentioned? Oh yeah, called out the Democrats again, all
- 10:46Speaker 1: Democrats after giving Republicans praise for passing the one big
- 10:51Speaker 1: beautiful bill of the largest tax cuts in American history,
- 10:53Speaker 1: which includes a whole bunch of other things, the enjoyment
- 10:56Speaker 1: of which we're going to start to appreciate this year
- 10:58Speaker 1: because it just kicked in this year, big beautiful bill.
- 11:01Speaker 1: Auto loans now tax deductible if you buy an American car.
- 11:04Speaker 1: Little populism right there. I have to acknowledge that no
- 11:08Speaker 1: taxes on tips, no tax on overtime, expanded child tax
- 11:12Speaker 1: care credit. There's a lot of frontline working class people
- 11:15Speaker 1: out there in the world that are enjoying the benefits
- 11:17Speaker 1: of that. Again, a populist measure and proposal, not necessarily
- 11:20Speaker 1: something Republicans historically would done by Donald Trump, there he
- 11:23Speaker 1: is taking credit for it and giving the Republicans praise
- 11:26Speaker 1: for passing it and calling out the Democrats for not
- 11:28Speaker 1: voting at all on any of that. So if you're
- 11:31Speaker 1: happy you're not taxed on tips, you're happy on no
- 11:33Speaker 1: tax on overtime, you're happy about an expanded tax care
- 11:36Speaker 1: for your child, then you only have Republicans to thank
- 11:39Speaker 1: for that period, end of story. Full stop. You did mention.
- 11:42Speaker 1: Tariffs took a little of just nine a minor jab
- 11:45Speaker 1: at the Supreme Court. Handful of them showed up, came
- 11:48Speaker 1: down very unfortunate ruling. He called it. The good good
- 11:51Speaker 1: news is he sort of pointed out that he's done.
- 11:53Speaker 1: He's going to keep going with tariffs in a different way.
- 11:55Speaker 1: That too, will be addressed in court at some day.
- 11:58Speaker 1: He used tariffs as a mention about what settling wars
- 12:01Speaker 1: because of the threat of tariffs that was a foreign
- 12:03Speaker 1: policied a big win for Donald Trump, something that should
- 12:06Speaker 1: have qualified him for the Nobel Peace Prize. Job investment,
- 12:10Speaker 1: he's factory jobs investments and trillions and trillions of dollars
- 12:13Speaker 1: pouring into the United States, which benefits the front line
- 12:19Speaker 1: of American workers. Again, he's appointed Biden in the Green
- 12:23Speaker 1: new Scam aka the Inflation Reduction Act, open borders for everybody,
- 12:30Speaker 1: Millions and millions of people pouring in from prisons and
- 12:32Speaker 1: mental institutions. Going back to my point to Cincinni City Council,
- 12:35Speaker 1: they're not vetted and they may have BacT like Venezuela.
- 12:38Speaker 1: They don't do any vetting down there. They opened up
- 12:40Speaker 1: their prisons and sent everybody here. That's a problem. He
- 12:47Speaker 1: specifically mentioned eighty eight murderers landed our country. They came
- 12:54Speaker 1: into our country. You, pointing to the Democrats allowed that
- 12:57Speaker 1: to happen. Yeah, well, distinctive between Republican Democrats when it
- 13:01Speaker 1: comes to border security and the aftermath of it. Oh,
- 13:05Speaker 1: let us see here. And then he mentioned the affordability word. Yes,
- 13:09Speaker 1: affordability Democrats pointing to the Republicans going into November, it's
- 13:12Speaker 1: all the Republicans fault. And Donald Trump did a pretty
- 13:15Speaker 1: good job of pointing out why that's not true, especially
- 13:18Speaker 1: in energy. He did pivot over to the Affordable Care Act,
- 13:21Speaker 1: which he called let us see well. He said it
- 13:24Speaker 1: was meant for insurance companies, another populist mention, meant for
- 13:28Speaker 1: insurance companies, giving them hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars.
- 13:31Speaker 1: That is true, and he said, hey, how about giving
- 13:33Speaker 1: that money directly to the American people so they can
- 13:35Speaker 1: go out and get their own damn insurance in the
- 13:37Speaker 1: private market. Like John Roman from cover SINSI there's a
- 13:39Speaker 1: free blog. Yeah, private market exists out there. If you
- 13:42Speaker 1: had a pile of cash that you were free to spend,
- 13:44Speaker 1: much like school choice, you would make a more educated,
- 13:47Speaker 1: informed choice and end up with better medical assurance without
- 13:50Speaker 1: with lower lower price. Talked about most Favored Nation agreements
- 13:54Speaker 1: for drug prices, lowest price now anywhere in the world,
- 13:57Speaker 1: and he called on Congress specifically to codify the most
- 14:01Speaker 1: favored nation program you like low prescription drugs. Debate it,
- 14:06Speaker 1: vote on it. Let's see what the American people say
- 14:08Speaker 1: about your vote on that. Halfway through he calls out
- 14:12Speaker 1: Congress quite a few times. I don't know, I'm pretty
- 14:15Speaker 1: impressed by it as I read it. What do you
- 14:17Speaker 1: think give me a call. I'll be right back after
- 14:18Speaker 1: these brief words.
- 14:20Speaker 3: Here's what's happening.
- 14:21Speaker 4: It's nice say to the union address.
- 14:29Speaker 1: May want more of the comical member, comical comments made.
- 14:33Speaker 1: He wants to eliminate congress trading on insider information. Let's
- 14:40Speaker 1: also when she remembers of Congress cannot corruptly profit from
- 14:43Speaker 1: using insider information. And of course is interestingly enough, a
- 14:47Speaker 1: lot of people stood up for that, including a lot
- 14:48Speaker 1: of Democrats, and among them Nancy Pelosi, who's widely viewed
- 14:52Speaker 1: as one of the most corrupt members of Congress because
- 14:54Speaker 1: she's traded on inside information. Rumor has it said, I
- 15:00Speaker 1: can't believe that the Nancy Pelosi stand up. If she's here,
- 15:03Speaker 1: I doubt it past the Stop Insider Trading Act without delay.
- 15:08Speaker 1: Congress do that right now. There's another call to Congress
- 15:11Speaker 1: to act. And yes, and thank god he brought up fraud,
- 15:16Speaker 1: noting when it comes to corruption, that is plundering. Really,
- 15:19Speaker 1: it's plundering America. There's been no more stunning example than Minnesota,
- 15:22Speaker 1: where members of the Somali cuty members of not All
- 15:27Speaker 1: have pillaged an estimated nineteen billion dollars in American taxpayers
- 15:31Speaker 1: something I've been on a tear on in an article
- 15:33Speaker 1: that you can read on my website fifty five Casey
- 15:35Speaker 1: dot com. Thank you for putting it up yesterday, Joe,
- 15:37Speaker 1: the Imprimis article which breaks down in glorious and horrific detail,
- 15:42Speaker 1: how the fraud came about in Minnesota and how many,
- 15:45Speaker 1: if well seemingly all of elected officials those are responsible
- 15:48Speaker 1: for oversight of your taxpayer dollars ignored it and in
- 15:54Speaker 1: such a way ignored it so much that you can
- 15:57Speaker 1: only reach your conclusion that the reason they ignored it
- 15:59Speaker 1: is because they were benefiting from it, the ones responsible
- 16:04Speaker 1: for oversight. It's like the you know, the the Fox
- 16:06Speaker 1: Garden of the Henhouse. Read it at fifty five KRC
- 16:10Speaker 1: dot com. It's right there, and I thank you again
- 16:13Speaker 1: for putting that on the link there in Primus article
- 16:16Speaker 1: for Masterday. So he did call him out and he's
- 16:18Speaker 1: placed JD. Vans in charge. Meanwhile, Billion Omar is screaming
- 16:27Speaker 1: Donald Trump's a liar in uh from from the peanut gallery.
- 16:32Speaker 1: All right, let's all look west. Sid Jim to the phone.
- 16:34Speaker 1: Hang on, Jim, I love it when you call. We'll
- 16:36Speaker 1: get your call right out of the gate when I return.

- 16:39Speaker 1: talk station, fifty.
- 16:40Speaker 3: Five KRC dot Com.
- 16:43Speaker 1: Five KRCD talk station. Yeah, five nine Bright Thomas wishing
- 16:53Speaker 1: everyone a very happy Wenesday and going straight to the phones.
- 16:55Speaker 1: We'll get to West side. Jim kind enough to hold
- 16:57Speaker 1: over the break. Welcome back, Jim. It's always great hearing
- 16:59Speaker 1: from you, my friend.
- 17:01Speaker 2: Morning Brian. Before I talk about the speech from last night,
- 17:05Speaker 2: Todd z endsers on Diry Dutey and he pulled a
- 17:07Speaker 2: trial yesterday, so I'm kind of curious what that one
- 17:11Speaker 2: was and if he got into the so called mini
- 17:14Speaker 2: riot that happens down at the courthouse. Signal ninety nine,
- 17:17Speaker 2: who's been.
- 17:18Speaker 5: Talking about that?
- 17:19Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw that that happened yesterday.
- 17:21Speaker 1: Well that's good. I mean, timing couldn't be better. I
- 17:24Speaker 1: hate when that kind of thing happens, and it seems
- 17:25Speaker 1: like it happens more and more often, as she noted
- 17:27Speaker 1: in her post. But she'll be on the program tomorrow,
- 17:30Speaker 1: the return of Signal ninety nine along with Warren Davidson
- 17:33Speaker 1: tomorrow tomorrow in the morning show.
- 17:35Speaker 2: Yeah, that'll be good. I'm talking about last night at least.
- 17:39Speaker 2: We couldn't understand or hear that those two so called
- 17:42Speaker 2: ladies when they were yelling during the speech, that that
- 17:45Speaker 2: wasn't a Wilson type of an atmosphere. I couldn't hear
- 17:49Speaker 2: him when I hit the TV on. I you know,
- 17:52Speaker 2: when you told me about what they were yelling.
- 17:55Speaker 6: That's fine.
- 17:55Speaker 2: They want to call trumpel ire, that's fine. They could
- 17:57Speaker 2: do whatever they want. That was a little little time
- 18:00Speaker 2: and fame. But I guarantee you that during this whole
- 18:05Speaker 2: thing last night, when Trump bought all those people out there,
- 18:09Speaker 2: some being called heroes and others, it was a man.
- 18:13Speaker 2: The moment when he was given those Congressional medals of
- 18:15Speaker 2: honor to those soldiers was unreal.
- 18:19Speaker 1: But the.
- 18:22Speaker 2: I lost my train of thought there. But when they
- 18:25Speaker 2: bought the goalie and the rest of the Olympic gold
- 18:29Speaker 2: medal people out, I guarantee that if the shoe was
- 18:32Speaker 2: on the other foot and the Democrats were in charge,
- 18:35Speaker 2: and if they would possibly have brought those people out,
- 18:38Speaker 2: the Republicans would have would have stood up and clapped,
- 18:41Speaker 2: rather than the Democrats not standing up and clapping. That
- 18:45Speaker 2: was really sparse.
- 18:46Speaker 5: I saw a few of them.
- 18:47Speaker 1: Ask yourself why wouldn't they.
- 18:51Speaker 5: I have no idea exactly.
- 18:52Speaker 2: I call the MANI Americans.
- 18:54Speaker 1: Well, and therein lies the challenge for me. I can
- 18:57Speaker 1: come to no other conclusion than that our team won,
- 19:02Speaker 1: the United States beat the other guys. Isn't that what
- 19:05Speaker 1: sports is all about? Aren't you supposed to be congratulatory
- 19:08Speaker 1: to your team for winning. I mean, there's no politics
- 19:12Speaker 1: involved in ice hockey. Man, it's just us versus Them's
- 19:15Speaker 1: the Bengals versus the Browns. I mean, is it non
- 19:18Speaker 1: patriotic to vote for one team or another or to
- 19:20Speaker 1: root for one team versus another? No, we won, I
- 19:24Speaker 1: mean we have one. Since it wasn't eighty, it was
- 19:27Speaker 1: a celebratory moment.
- 19:28Speaker 2: For that far, wasn't a time that it wasn't a
- 19:31Speaker 2: time to do what they do. I mean, believe the
- 19:34Speaker 2: politics out of it. Sometimes to stand up and give
- 19:36Speaker 2: these kids or just due. I mean, for God's sakes,
- 19:39Speaker 2: that's all gonna do is stand up and clapping and
- 19:42Speaker 2: for what thirty seconds? Yeah, I mean for god, It's
- 19:45Speaker 2: just unreal with how low these people are on the left,
- 19:50Speaker 2: like little kids, you know, you bring it up all
- 19:52Speaker 2: the time. They put their hands, order ears to go.
- 19:54Speaker 5: No lah lah lah.
- 19:55Speaker 2: Well that's what they tried to do last night.
- 19:57Speaker 6: But anyway, I thought.
- 19:59Speaker 5: This speech, this was good.
- 20:00Speaker 2: It was about a fifty percent speech and about a
- 20:03Speaker 2: fifty more of acknowledgment of so called heroes. You can't
- 20:09Speaker 2: you can't classify. Some of them are heroes that just
- 20:11Speaker 2: great people that events happened to him. But the ones
- 20:15Speaker 2: like the helicopter pilot you could see that he was
- 20:18Speaker 2: using a walker. I mean, it almost gives you an
- 20:20Speaker 2: hourgy time, that says for sure. And that one hundred
- 20:25Speaker 2: year old gentleman, that's incredible. His story was remarkable. It
- 20:31Speaker 2: reminds me a lot of that gentlemen that you have
- 20:33Speaker 2: on periodically that was sitting next to the first lady.
- 20:38Speaker 2: So we'll see what happens. We'll see. I watched the
- 20:41Speaker 2: fact checkers on CNN afterwards and what a joke that was.
- 20:46Speaker 2: And I guess we'll see more of the fact checking.
- 20:49Speaker 5: Coming out today.
- 20:50Speaker 6: But I thought it was good.
- 20:51Speaker 5: You know, I'll give you.
- 20:52Speaker 2: Thumbs up on it. I didn't want to sit there
- 20:55Speaker 2: for two hours to be bored to death. And you know,
- 20:58Speaker 2: maybe maybe some of the facts are a little stretched,
- 21:01Speaker 2: but so what you know, it is what it is
- 21:04Speaker 2: and they all do it, so I definitely give it
- 21:07Speaker 2: a thumbs up.
- 21:08Speaker 1: Thumbs up, and also a lot of material for well
- 21:12Speaker 1: of the upcoming November election in terms of you know,
- 21:14Speaker 1: video and uh material that Republicans used to advance theirs
- 21:18Speaker 1: and contrast them from the Democrats, who again oddly did
- 21:24Speaker 1: not stand for the American hockey team of all things that. Jim,
- 21:28Speaker 1: I'm glad you brought that point up because I did
- 21:30Speaker 1: not see that point wasn't mentioned the materials I was reading. Thanks, brother,
- 21:33Speaker 1: have a great day, and I appreciate your calling in.
- 21:35Speaker 1: Let's see what Jay's got this morning. Jay, Welcome to
- 21:37Speaker 1: the Morning Show, and Happy Wednesday to you.
- 21:40Speaker 7: Happy Wednesday, Brian. Hey, the only thing I want to
- 21:43Speaker 7: hear at the at the speech is Doge updates, and
- 21:47Speaker 7: it seems like Doge just fell off the map.
- 21:51Speaker 1: He brought up Minnesota, he did bring up a JD.
- 21:55Speaker 1: Vans being appointed to look into it, and he did
- 21:57Speaker 1: mention other states maybe even being worse than the fraud,
- 22:00Speaker 1: wasted abuse that's been uncovered in Minneapolis. So I think
- 22:04Speaker 1: he set it up. He set it up anyway, and
- 22:06Speaker 1: he did bring it up, which I was very pleased
- 22:08Speaker 1: to see.
- 22:10Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm pleased to see it. I'm disappointed that it
- 22:13Speaker 7: fell by the wayside, and I can't have a whole
- 22:17Speaker 7: lot of confidence that JD. Vance leading the effort on
- 22:20Speaker 7: DOGE given his resume. The only thing that I know
- 22:23Speaker 7: that JD has done is he was the tiebreaker on
- 22:27Speaker 7: the passing the Big Beautiful Bill, which locked in Joe
- 22:30Speaker 7: Biden's level of spending. But I don't see his resume
- 22:35Speaker 7: saying that.
- 22:35Speaker 8: He's like a let's.
- 22:37Speaker 7: Take somebody like Larry Kulp, who is the current CEO
- 22:40Speaker 7: of GE, came in, turned around a great, big organization
- 22:44Speaker 7: that was left a mess by his predecessor mL and
- 22:49Speaker 7: has done a masterful job. And he did that throughout
- 22:52Speaker 7: his career.
- 22:53Speaker 1: That's what that's what was doing. He Elon must started
- 22:57Speaker 1: out in that role. He's not there anymore. Under somebody's
- 23:00Speaker 1: got to do it. At least the President appointed someone
- 23:03Speaker 1: and is aware of the fraud, wasted abuse and has
- 23:05Speaker 1: actually initiated initiated an action plan to deal with it.
- 23:08Speaker 1: I'm willing to wait and see if JD. Vance is
- 23:10Speaker 1: up at the task. Jay. I'm not going to dismiss
- 23:12Speaker 1: him out of the gate because he voted for well,
- 23:13Speaker 1: the one big Beautiful Bill, or any other particular act.
- 23:16Speaker 1: If Donald if Joe Biden, or any other any other
- 23:18Speaker 1: Democrat was up there during the State of the Union
- 23:20Speaker 1: and wouldn't even have mentioned the issue, they wouldn't have
- 23:23Speaker 1: brought it up. So he did bring it up.
- 23:28Speaker 5: He did.
- 23:28Speaker 7: Let's stop talking, then let's start moving because the results
- 23:31Speaker 7: aren't coming in. So until man, it's just talk, which
- 23:33Speaker 7: is JD's PhD.
- 23:36Speaker 1: The reality of American politics. It's always just talk until
- 23:41Speaker 1: something gets done and we can reflect back, look that
- 23:43Speaker 1: was the beginning of the end for that particular that
- 23:46Speaker 1: area of a problematic government, or we look back and
- 23:49Speaker 1: say that was supposed to be the beginning of the end.
- 23:51Speaker 1: But he didn't do anything. Got to take time, got
- 23:53Speaker 1: to wait for it. At least something has been promised
- 23:56Speaker 1: which never would have happened under a democratic president. So
- 23:59Speaker 1: I'm we're gonna look at it as a sign of optimism, Jay,
- 24:02Speaker 1: and not dismiss it out of the gate as gonna
- 24:05Speaker 1: be fruitless. Just my efforts to remain optimistic got a run.
- 24:09Speaker 9: Jay.

- 24:50Speaker 1: Happy Wednesday, brother.
- 24:53Speaker 5: Ed, good morning. When I heard that West Side Gym

- 25:06Speaker 5: appreciate Jay and all the all the things he looks
- 25:09Speaker 5: into and then gets on here and let us know
- 25:11Speaker 5: about it. I I watched a good portion of it
- 25:16Speaker 5: the speech last night I at some point I was like,
- 25:19Speaker 5: I gotta get sleep right. But yeah, basically you could
- 25:24Speaker 5: title that speech don't vote Democrat. I love how he
- 25:28Speaker 5: hammered him. I just I loved it. He would point
- 25:31Speaker 5: at him, he would wave his hand over there, like
- 25:34Speaker 5: look at these people over here, and they're sick, and
- 25:37Speaker 5: I mean it was it was spectacular.
- 25:40Speaker 1: And did you see Rashid Representative Rashid at the League
- 25:45Speaker 1: was wearing.
- 25:47Speaker 5: Yeah, I saw. I saw those two with their crocodile
- 25:50Speaker 5: tears going.
- 25:50Speaker 1: And well she had a button. All I was, I'm
- 25:53Speaker 1: lamenting the state of discourse in this world. I was
- 25:56Speaker 1: doing it the other day with the F bombs being
- 25:57Speaker 1: dragged out of the everywhere from every person that you
- 26:01Speaker 1: might consider someone who should have a better sense of themselves.
- 26:04Speaker 1: But she wore a button that said F word ice
- 26:08Speaker 1: right there, bigger in life. So you know, stay classy, Democrats,
- 26:11Speaker 1: stay classy, right.
- 26:13Speaker 5: Yeah, And and you know they and they're just they're hypocrites.
- 26:16Speaker 5: It's really is because they just want what they want.
- 26:19Speaker 5: They want things to go their way. Uh you know
- 26:22Speaker 5: they whatever their reason is, doesn't matter that what they
- 26:25Speaker 5: want is wrong. It shouldn't be going on in this country.
- 26:28Speaker 5: We as as our representatives. They should not be putting
- 26:33Speaker 5: other people's interests first. I think that was that was
- 26:37Speaker 5: probably the biggest moment of the speech when he when he,
- 26:39Speaker 5: like you pointed out, said hey, stand up if you
- 26:42Speaker 5: agree with this statement, and and majority of the one
- 26:45Speaker 5: sided room did not stand up. You really all you
- 26:48Speaker 5: need to know.
- 26:49Speaker 1: The first duty of the American government is to protect
- 26:51Speaker 1: American citizens, not illegal aliens.
- 26:54Speaker 5: Correct and full stop. That's it right there. He could
- 26:57Speaker 5: have he could have walked away from the mic right there.
- 27:00Speaker 5: Of course, there's no way he's gonna do that. But
- 27:03Speaker 5: that's it. That's what it boils down to. And clearly
- 27:06Speaker 5: our interests or not what's first to them. So you know,
- 27:11Speaker 5: like I said, don't vote Democrat. Have a great day, Brian.
- 27:13Speaker 1: You do the same. Tom, appreciate you calling. Okay, you
- 27:17Speaker 1: know me, I'm a huge fan of school choice. Here's
- 27:18Speaker 1: a reason. A substitute teacher, a person who drew the
- 27:25Speaker 1: attention of a lot of parents and raised a lot
- 27:27Speaker 1: of complaints described as a transgender substitute teacher teaching at
- 27:31Speaker 1: the Mildred b. Pool Elementary School at Fort Bragg in
- 27:34Speaker 1: North Carolina. Been there since twenty twenty three, not there anymore.
- 27:40Speaker 1: Parents reported the employee went by female names, this is
- 27:44Speaker 1: a man and more bds BDSM bondage discipline sadomasochism style
- 27:52Speaker 1: female clothing, including a dog dog collar and an animal
- 27:55Speaker 1: tale to school. Teacher told students to address it by
- 28:02Speaker 1: some online personas including Roxanne, Roxy, Captain Roxy or coda anyway.
- 28:08Speaker 1: An announcement just the other day on ex Pete hagsth
- 28:11Speaker 1: Secretary of War said the wolf that was one of
- 28:13Speaker 1: the words that she went by has been fired two
- 28:15Speaker 1: weeks ago. Parents raised concerned about the teachers inappropriate attire
- 28:19Speaker 1: to administrators early last year court to the Liberty Council,
- 28:22Speaker 1: I guess they're representing teachers. These are pre k and
- 28:26Speaker 1: kindergarten students being subjected to this type of behavior. Their
- 28:30Speaker 1: mothers reported that a teacher was allowed to identify as
- 28:33Speaker 1: a female ask students to address the teacher by female
- 28:36Speaker 1: pronouns in a classroom address in quote, tight skirts and
- 28:38Speaker 1: tank tops above the knee, skirts and combat boots while
- 28:41Speaker 1: wearing a BDSM dog collar with dog tags, which they
- 28:45Speaker 1: say represents sexual fetishes. I think I'm in a court
- 28:48Speaker 1: on that assessment. Court to Liberty Council. The parents reported
- 28:50Speaker 1: seeing the teacher wearing the attire with the animal tale
- 28:52Speaker 1: on more than one occasion, despite bright dressing appropriately for
- 28:56Speaker 1: the school yearbook photo. Another school events, it's keeping it
- 29:00Speaker 1: on the DL when she's out in public, not in
- 29:02Speaker 1: the classroom, let her said letters. Said student told parents
- 29:07Speaker 1: that the teacher directed them to address it by online
- 29:10Speaker 1: wolf character names, told them to howl like wolves, and
- 29:14Speaker 1: said the teacher would talk about turning into a werewolf
- 29:16Speaker 1: at night, and told students the individual wanted to present
- 29:19Speaker 1: more non binary and was actually a woman who likes boys.
- 29:26Speaker 1: I'm struggling with this myself. One mother reporter that her
- 29:30Speaker 1: child arrived home frightened, saying, Mommy, I'm scared he's going
- 29:33Speaker 1: to come and eat me.
- 29:36Speaker 9: Phrasing.
- 29:38Speaker 1: Parents also reported the teacher's car displayed across the windshield
- 29:41Speaker 1: the words where beast huntress with a custom front plate
- 29:47Speaker 1: rocks ro x x y six six six, along with
- 29:53Speaker 1: profanity transgender flags that accorded reports with the Liberty Council.
- 29:58Speaker 1: Liberty councils had have reviewed social media counse needed to
- 30:00Speaker 1: that employee said the material included a teacher engaging in
- 30:03Speaker 1: sexual fetishes and violence, slash torture through drawings with furry personas.
- 30:10Speaker 1: Letter alleged teacher's behavior constituted sexual harassment, was unacceptable conduct
- 30:14Speaker 1: and defies common sense and decency, also raising safety concerns
- 30:17Speaker 1: about whether the employee escorted girls to restrooms based on
- 30:22Speaker 1: the claimed female identity. Letter Than demanded the teacher be
- 30:25Speaker 1: immediately suspended removed from the classroom pending investigation of the matter,
- 30:29Speaker 1: and according to Pete Heggzef, that happened school Choice five
- 30:34Speaker 1: forty seven.
- 30:35Speaker 10: There's no flag for us.

- 31:38Speaker 1: where Car tied herself with a rope to the barrier
- 31:40Speaker 1: at the overlook, forced Isbel to climb over the barrier,
- 31:43Speaker 1: then forced her off this side of the canyon. Isbel's
- 31:47Speaker 1: husband reported her missing in December, who would take authorities

- 32:17Speaker 1: but pleaded to a lesser charge of murder. Kelly expected
- 32:21Speaker 1: to testify against her mom if the case went to court.
- 32:24Speaker 1: She was sentenced to forty years in prison. District Attorney
- 32:28Speaker 1: Summer somer Ford. Summer Somerford, how about that this is
- 32:31Speaker 1: an example of the senseless, this act destroying a family.
- 32:34Speaker 1: The mother's left without a daughter, sister's left without a sibling,
- 32:36Speaker 1: and a son has left without a mom. Femily has
- 32:38Speaker 1: been through much, but they've walked with us in law
- 32:41Speaker 1: enforcement throughout this process and have been responsive and helpful.
- 32:44Speaker 1: And then she asked for prayers. So Alabama woman gonna

- 33:02Speaker 1: Michigan State Police said he kidnapped his cousin. Why are
- 33:07Speaker 1: you doing that? Let's find out together me. West Brandt's
- 33:09Speaker 1: Post troopers responded to a gas station on February twenty firth. First,
- 33:17Speaker 1: let's try that again. February twenty first, twenty one year
- 33:24Speaker 1: old Hulbert Man called nine one one reported that after
- 33:26Speaker 1: drinking alcohol together early in the evening, his cousin had
- 33:29Speaker 1: forced him to drive to Florida at knife point. What
- 33:33Speaker 1: cousin fell asleep. Though the man called a family member
- 33:35Speaker 1: in nine to one one for help, nobody got injured
- 33:37Speaker 1: or to the police came in. Honeyset arrested for unlawful
- 33:41Speaker 1: imprisonment rain in the eighty first District court coming up.
- 33:50Speaker 1: I want to go to Florida. Idiots doing idiot things
- 33:55Speaker 1: because they're idiots. Uh, last, come on, I'm gonna spend
- 33:57Speaker 1: the next several decades in prison after suffocating her infant daughters.
- 34:03Speaker 1: Do what the hell? Stephanie Elizabeth Belicky thirty years old,
- 34:08Speaker 1: formerly known as Stephanie la Fontaine. He did a guilty
- 34:11Speaker 1: to two counts of murder and the second degree over
- 34:13Speaker 1: the deaths of her four month old and thirteen month
- 34:15Speaker 1: old baby girls. Sentence so one hundred and thirty years prison,
- 34:19Speaker 1: eighty five years suspended in total. She's going to serve
- 34:22Speaker 1: forty five years In exchange for the guilty plea prosecutors
- 34:25Speaker 1: drop tw additional charges as well as two charges of
- 34:28Speaker 1: murder in the first degree District Thurtey said mandatory minimum
- 34:32Speaker 1: both cases in fact twenty years, because this was her
- 34:35Speaker 1: child in each case Jesus. In September twenty fifteen, she
- 34:40Speaker 1: called her boyfriend and mom break the news her four
- 34:43Speaker 1: month old girl was dead. Ten minutes later, and just
- 34:47Speaker 1: before her mom arrived, she dialed nine to one point one.
- 34:50Speaker 1: Otherwise healthy little girl caused death presumed to be sudden
- 34:53Speaker 1: infant death syndrome. Investigation later determined she died from injuries
- 34:57Speaker 1: consistent with strangulation. Two years later later, it happened again,
- 35:02Speaker 1: eerily similar as it's written. November twenty seventeen, her husband
- 35:05Speaker 1: was deployed. She attempted to call them, settle for calling
- 35:08Speaker 1: her in laws. This time, she reported that her thirteen
- 35:11Speaker 1: month old girl, Jasmine, was not breathing. Again, before the
- 35:13Speaker 1: girl's grandparents arrived, she called nine to one one. This
- 35:18Speaker 1: time they came up with evidence of a crime. Hours
- 35:20Speaker 1: before making the call, she searched the Internet on her
- 35:24Speaker 1: cell phone, using phrases like quote ways to suffocate close
- 35:27Speaker 1: quote quote ways to kill a human with no proof
- 35:31Speaker 1: close quote quote drugs that can kill people with no trade.
- 35:35Speaker 1: I think she meant trace close quote. Ken drownings show
- 35:38Speaker 1: in an autopsy report. Sixteen steps to kill someone and
- 35:44Speaker 1: not get caught, and multiple others along those lines, according
- 35:47Speaker 1: to prosecutors who got the records from her search. Remember
- 35:49Speaker 1: they can do that, idiots doing idiot things because they're idiots.
- 35:55Speaker 1: Autopsy showed that the other baby's cause of death was
- 35:58Speaker 1: in fact lack of oxygen. With suspicions aroused, the escotor's
- 36:01Speaker 1: tone began to understand that she was likely responsible for
- 36:04Speaker 1: both the deaths and died in twenty eighteen by a
- 36:07Speaker 1: grand jury. Well, welcome to forty years in prison. Five

- 37:39Speaker 1: five love supporting honor flight. So uh, whenever quite you know,
- 37:44Speaker 1: a few of the highlights in the last hour. Again
- 37:46Speaker 1: found it, I think easier to read. And I got
- 37:48Speaker 1: to give props again to the speech writers. Boy, they
- 37:51Speaker 1: really Donald Trump did a great job of putting the
- 37:53Speaker 1: crosshairs on the Democrats, and at one point he even said,
- 37:56Speaker 1: I mean this is right there, square in front of
- 37:58Speaker 1: the probably the biggest point that was made on immigration.
- 38:01Speaker 1: One of the great things about the State of the
- 38:02Speaker 1: Union is how it gives Americans the chance to see
- 38:05Speaker 1: clearly what their representatives really believe, like rasheated talib f Ice,
- 38:11Speaker 1: clearly see what the representatives really believe. So tonight he said,
- 38:15Speaker 1: I'm inviting every legislator to join with my administration reaffirming
- 38:18Speaker 1: a fundamental principle. If you agree with this statement, then
- 38:21Speaker 1: stand up and show your support. The first duty of
- 38:26Speaker 1: the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens.
- 38:31Speaker 1: And of course, the vast majority I don't know if all,
- 38:34Speaker 1: but the vast majority of Democrats didn't stand up. A
- 38:36Speaker 1: lot of applause from their publican side, they all stood up.
- 38:38Speaker 1: So there's your stark contrast. I a bit of a
- 38:44Speaker 1: tearn the last hour on that point. I mean, what
- 38:49Speaker 1: is the point of borders. What is the point of
- 38:51Speaker 1: having a separate government from the rest of the governments
- 38:53Speaker 1: in the world if you're not there to support your
- 38:55Speaker 1: best interest. I make the point all the time, the
- 38:57Speaker 1: fools is the one that's not looking out for his
- 38:59Speaker 1: or her own best interest. Isn't that why we elect
- 39:03Speaker 1: officials in our representative form of government. When I vote
- 39:08Speaker 1: for someone, I'm hoping that they put my which means
- 39:11Speaker 1: your interests first. I have no obligation to the citizens
- 39:16Speaker 1: of filling the blank any given country on the planet.
- 39:20Speaker 1: And we already we have a train wreck of an
- 39:22Speaker 1: economy here. I mean, I know, Donald Trump's talking about
- 39:24Speaker 1: how the economy is improving, and there are areas of
- 39:25Speaker 1: the economy that are improving, and we still are the
- 39:28Speaker 1: well the wealthiest nation on the planet, but look at
- 39:30Speaker 1: the whole we've dug ourselves in. There aren't enough dollars
- 39:34Speaker 1: to deal with our own domestic issues. So okay, you're
- 39:39Speaker 1: gonna have to focus on this country. Let's deal with
- 39:41Speaker 1: our problems first and foremost, and if there's anything left over,
- 39:44Speaker 1: then maybe we'll consider the interests of another country. But
- 39:47Speaker 1: in all times and in all places, and regardless of
- 39:50Speaker 1: economic prosperity or problems with the economy, we should come
- 39:55Speaker 1: first and foremost. Period. And the story, even if you're
- 39:58Speaker 1: on the left wing side of the equation, well, you
- 40:00Speaker 1: want to run this country from a left wing perspective, politically,
- 40:03Speaker 1: you're still supposed to run it to benefit power citizenry.
- 40:10Speaker 1: So I don't know how they can defend that. And
- 40:15Speaker 1: of course, he said, isn't it a shame? You should
- 40:17Speaker 1: be ashamed of yourself not standing. Then he was pivoted
- 40:20Speaker 1: over to asking them to asking Congress and sanctuary city
- 40:23Speaker 1: policies that protect criminals, of course, and he pointed out
- 40:27Speaker 1: they're blocking the removal of these people from our country
- 40:30Speaker 1: f ice. And then he pivoted to the Save Act. Yes,
- 40:37Speaker 1: a driver's license, a photo ID. It's not a huge ask,
- 40:41Speaker 1: is it, over and over and over again statistically proven
- 40:45Speaker 1: that the vast majority of the American people want this.
- 40:48Speaker 1: They don't have any problem obtaining a photo license, even
- 40:51Speaker 1: black people and women find it pretty damn easy to
- 40:54Speaker 1: do in spite of what the Democrats tell you. So
- 40:57Speaker 1: he asked them specifically approve this act He even pivoted
- 41:04Speaker 1: over to mom Damie in New York. I think he's
- 41:06Speaker 1: actually nice guy actually, but he put it out, if
- 41:12Speaker 1: they want to shovel snow in New York City, you
- 41:13Speaker 1: got to present a Social Security card in two forms.
- 41:15Speaker 1: I d I'd love that point. So they don't want
- 41:20Speaker 1: you to get identification for the greatest privileges of them all,
- 41:23Speaker 1: voting in America. And that's when he called on Congress, Congress,
- 41:27Speaker 1: you should unite an act, the Save Act, the Common
- 41:30Speaker 1: Sense Country saving legislation now before anything else happens. And
- 41:34Speaker 1: then he said he said the stuff of the hard
- 41:35Speaker 1: part out loud, which is and the reason they don't
- 41:38Speaker 1: want to do with the Democrats and why would anybody
- 41:41Speaker 1: not want voter id things that make you go it's
- 41:46Speaker 1: rhetorical question, of course, But isn't that the point of them?
- 41:49Speaker 1: Well he answered the question, of course, Donald Trump did
- 41:52Speaker 1: one reason, because they want to cheat. That's the only reason.
- 41:57Speaker 1: They make up excuses say it's racist, you know, And
- 42:00Speaker 1: he says, what an imagination they have? They want to cheat.
- 42:06Speaker 1: So I think he's called them out pretty directly. Now,
- 42:10Speaker 1: if you spring from the proposition that the vast majority
- 42:13Speaker 1: of US do that. Black people and women and anybody
- 42:15Speaker 1: else can easily equally get an ID. The same challenges
- 42:18Speaker 1: presented to any member of any class, rich or poor,
- 42:21Speaker 1: of any color, any religion. We all face the same
- 42:24Speaker 1: challenges which are very little in getting a photo ID.
- 42:29Speaker 1: So with that in mind, you can throw out the
- 42:31Speaker 1: racist argument, you can throw out these sexist argument, you
- 42:33Speaker 1: can throw out every other thing. What are they left
- 42:35Speaker 1: with the Democrats in rejecting something that so many of
- 42:38Speaker 1: us want, right, They apparently want to cheat if it's
- 42:43Speaker 1: possible to cheat, and there is an easy solution to
- 42:47Speaker 1: prevent it that addresses the often used argument, well, it
- 42:50Speaker 1: happens so infrequently. There's only a couple of people cheating
- 42:54Speaker 1: out there. Wow, is it that they can cheat? Why?
- 42:56Speaker 1: Because you can drive a tank through the holes in
- 42:58Speaker 1: the process. The simple little fix of a photo ID
- 43:02Speaker 1: will stop that from happening, or dramatically reduced to the
- 43:04Speaker 1: point where it could hardly happen again. And to the
- 43:09Speaker 1: extent it can, you've at least taken a huge problem
- 43:13Speaker 1: out of the equation. You should take every step so
- 43:17Speaker 1: you can say definitively no, it's impossible to cheat in
- 43:20Speaker 1: an election. Now, hands up who in the room wants
- 43:25Speaker 1: to make it impossible to cheat on an election? That
- 43:28Speaker 1: would have been a good question for him to ask,
- 43:30Speaker 1: wouldn't it putting aside to save acting any problems any
- 43:33Speaker 1: Democrat might have with that? And they can come back
- 43:34Speaker 1: afterwards say I didn't stand because of this provision. I
- 43:37Speaker 1: didn't stand because of that provision. But do you stand
- 43:42Speaker 1: for the proposition of making it impossible to cheat in
- 43:46Speaker 1: an election? There's a simple, straightforward question for the Democrats.
- 43:52Speaker 1: Le aren Democrats out and listening audience that don't agree
- 43:54Speaker 1: with that. Wouldn't you like them make it impossible to cheat?
- 43:56Speaker 1: You know, because Republicans can cheat too. Isn't that what
- 43:59Speaker 1: you accused Donald Trump of? Oh that's right, you did,
- 44:04Speaker 1: didn't you. Huh? Well, if Donald Trump can cheat, then
- 44:09Speaker 1: would you want to stop that? Yeah? I would think so.
- 44:19Speaker 1: He addressed crime in the context of course illegal immigrants
- 44:23Speaker 1: flown into this country. Congress. I'm asking Congress to pass
- 44:27Speaker 1: tough legislation to ensure that violent and dangerous orpeat offenders
- 44:30Speaker 1: are put behind bars and importantly that they stay there.
- 44:33Speaker 1: This is something Democrats reject. They're not tough on crime
- 44:36Speaker 1: for bizarre reasons. What uh again, law if you spring
- 44:43Speaker 1: from the proposition that there's an equal application of the
- 44:46Speaker 1: laws to all people equally. And I know there's been
- 44:48Speaker 1: some historic struggles with that concept. We've made a lot
- 44:51Speaker 1: of inroads on that equal of protection of the laws.
- 44:53Speaker 1: They don't apply to just some set of people, they
- 44:55Speaker 1: apply equally to everyone. Democrats don't dig that at all
- 44:59Speaker 1: for whatever reason. So he pointed out that Iriana Tuska,
- 45:09Speaker 1: who was slaughtered on a train through a guy that
- 45:12Speaker 1: was released and no cash bell arrested over a dozen times.
- 45:15Speaker 1: There he was standing on the train and he slaughtered her.
- 45:18Speaker 1: The look on her face you can never forget if
- 45:20Speaker 1: you saw that video. I'm glad he brought that specific
- 45:22Speaker 1: one up. Who could be in favor of that a
- 45:25Speaker 1: recidivus demonstrably dangerous to society as I observe what Cincinnati
- 45:33Speaker 1: Council is doing. And he cited Sarah Backstrom shot in
- 45:49Speaker 1: the head by a terrorist from Afghanistan who shouldn't even
- 45:52Speaker 1: have been in our country because she was wearing the
- 45:54Speaker 1: uniform National Guard specialist twenty years old. Debt great illustration
- 46:01Speaker 1: on that one talked, of course, foreign policy, talk about
- 46:05Speaker 1: ending wars. He did mention the tariffs in that regard too,
- 46:11Speaker 1: Operation Midnight Hammer destroying the Iranian missile a nuclear program,
- 46:16Speaker 1: added himself on the back for that. He talked about
- 46:18Speaker 1: the military being rebuilt, flexing his military muscle, pointing out
- 46:23Speaker 1: again that we have the most powerful military on earth.
- 46:26Speaker 1: Gave himself props for the NATO chalking up five percent
- 46:30Speaker 1: of GDP when they weren't even paying the two percent
- 46:32Speaker 1: they were expected to pay. And that's a great point.
- 46:34Speaker 1: It's worth noting, isn't it. Why are we a member
- 46:36Speaker 1: of NATO if we all have mutual defense obligations. As
- 46:39Speaker 1: someone started launching missiles at the United States, our NATO
- 46:42Speaker 1: allies have sworn to help protect us against that type
- 46:45Speaker 1: of challenge. If they don't have militaries, what's the point
- 46:49Speaker 1: of a mutual defense agreement. Yeah, that's pretty damn important,
- 46:53Speaker 1: isn't it. Well, he's got them to step up to
- 46:55Speaker 1: the plate and rebuild their own military so they can
- 46:56Speaker 1: protect themselves. We don't have to bear the burden of
- 46:59Speaker 1: being the police force for all of Europe. Talked about
- 47:05Speaker 1: record numbers of recruitment in American military, every branch, setting
- 47:08Speaker 1: records that didn't happen under Biden did it. Huh uh,
- 47:13Speaker 1: security dominance in the Western Hemisphere, talking about the drug cartels,
- 47:16Speaker 1: recent activity in Mexico, what he's accomplished in Venezuela, and
- 47:21Speaker 1: it helps the people of Venezuela much in the same
- 47:23Speaker 1: way I reacted to the missile strike kill on the
- 47:26Speaker 1: terrace and the drug cartel kingping in Mexico the other day,
- 47:30Speaker 1: talked with Daniel Davis about that yesterday podcast fifty five
- 47:32Speaker 1: Karcy dot com. What a beginning, what a hopeful future
- 47:36Speaker 1: for Mexico. If they continue down this road and President
- 47:39Speaker 1: Scheinbaum continues to go after the organized drug cartels, it's
- 47:43Speaker 1: going to be great for Mexico. Venezuela was corr up
- 47:48Speaker 1: from top to bottom. You get rid of the most
- 47:50Speaker 1: corrupt person in the room, Aduro. You give the people
- 47:52Speaker 1: of Venezuela an opportunity to change course, optimism for Venezuela
- 47:58Speaker 1: that didn't exist before. That's a good thing, isn't it.
- 48:06Speaker 1: And Congressional Medals of Honor are awarded some really impressive
- 48:09Speaker 1: folks in the audience and a nice little summary, you know,
- 48:13Speaker 1: congratulating the United States of America. It's two hundred and
- 48:15Speaker 1: fiftieth anniversary and just walking through American achievement and American
- 48:21Speaker 1: greatness generally speaking. And it's right to be supportive of
- 48:25Speaker 1: American it's like to be it's right to be patriotic.
- 48:28Speaker 1: And that's what's so fundamentally weird about Democrats and not
- 48:32Speaker 1: standing for the Olympic hockey team, not standing for that.
- 48:39Speaker 1: What is I don't understand that the hockey team wasn't
- 48:43Speaker 1: playing for Republicans, they weren't playing for Democrats. They were
- 48:45Speaker 1: playing for the United States of America, representing this country
- 48:49Speaker 1: on the world stage. They brought them a goal that
- 48:51Speaker 1: we haven't hand since nineteen eighty in hockey. You can't
- 48:55Speaker 1: be proud of that moment. I should wake what the
- 49:00Speaker 1: hell is wrong with those people? Six nineteen fifty five
- 49:03Speaker 1: kerr CE Deepalk Station Foreign Exchange head none over Foreign
- 49:06Speaker 1: Exchange tomorrow aftera see the talk station six twenty four

- 49:31Speaker 1: hour as well five one three, seven four fifty five
- 49:33Speaker 1: eight two three fock. Meanwhile, while the New York City
- 49:35Speaker 1: Police officers getting pelted with snowballs from angry people in
- 49:38Speaker 1: the City of New York who do not care about
- 49:40Speaker 1: law enforcement hate them. I suppose Mom, Donnie calling you, well,
- 49:43Speaker 1: it looks like a snowball fight. They're getting pumbled by
- 49:45Speaker 1: the snowballs to the New York City Police Department. I
- 49:49Speaker 1: was thinking, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing for all
- 49:51Speaker 1: those folks in New York City who hate law enforcement?
- 49:54Speaker 1: I think it's a cool thing to pummele them with
- 49:55Speaker 1: snowballs while they're walking down the street. What if the
- 49:58Speaker 1: New York City Police Department just shrunk like Atlas shrug.
- 50:01Speaker 1: They just woke up one day and they said, you
- 50:02Speaker 1: know what, I'm not going to do this anymore. I'm
- 50:04Speaker 1: walking out. I'm sick of it. Well, every single one
- 50:09Speaker 1: of those Claremont County Law Enforcement Expo taking place, I
- 50:12Speaker 1: guess today at the U see campus over in Claremont County.
- 50:15Speaker 1: You see Campus forty two undred, Claremont County driving Matavia
- 50:18Speaker 1: Career Opportunities in Law Enforcement in Claremont County, which is
- 50:21Speaker 1: probably a hell of a lot better place to be
- 50:23Speaker 1: a law enforcement officer than downtown New York City. Looking
- 50:27Speaker 1: for police officers, deputy sheriff's corrections officers, dispatch communications personnel.
- 50:33Speaker 1: If you want to show up, you'll meet face to
- 50:35Speaker 1: face with agency representatives. They talk about the hiring requirements, sponsorships,
- 50:39Speaker 1: training programs, this specialty units, career advancement pathways, all the
- 50:43Speaker 1: information including salary and benefit packages. Anyone invited an interesting
- 50:49Speaker 1: pursuing a career in law enforcement, including current students, recent graduates,
- 50:53Speaker 1: military veterans, career changers, community members interested in the field.
- 50:57Speaker 1: Sounds to me like everybody and members of New York
- 50:59Speaker 1: City Police Department. Competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, retirement plans. Hey,
- 51:09Speaker 1: it is a job that comes with that job stability,
- 51:13Speaker 1: opportunities for advancement, and the privilege of serving your community
- 51:17Speaker 1: and making a meaningful impact. And I know my friends
- 51:20Speaker 1: in Claremont County. No, I'm not telling you what to pay, Stricker,
- 51:25Speaker 1: you're not allowed. You stay right where you are, Claire,
- 51:31Speaker 1: he just left the building, Joe. It doesn't start until
- 51:38Speaker 1: four pm. But the Claremont County residents they'll support you.
- 51:48Speaker 1: They'll have your back, they'll cooperate, they'll drop the dimes,
- 51:54Speaker 1: and you probably won't have a lot to do in
- 51:56Speaker 1: Claremont County, noting that it isn't a real high crime
- 51:59Speaker 1: area of the country. Six twenty six right now, if
- 52:01Speaker 1: you have KRC dethalk station, maybe I'll think about that.

- 52:36Speaker 11: yourself for all the support that you give the active
- 52:41Speaker 11: military and especially our our veterans here in the area.
- 52:45Speaker 11: Between your interviews with the VA Steve Balscots out with
- 52:49Speaker 11: the Clarimon County Services Office, and of course you're continued
- 52:52Speaker 11: in strong support for Tri State Honor Flight. I want
- 52:55Speaker 11: to thank to both of you from the bottom of
- 52:56Speaker 11: my arts.
- 52:57Speaker 1: Let me reciprocate by thanking you, Mike for all your
- 53:00Speaker 1: work with Honor Flight Tricetity two. Without guys like you,
- 53:02Speaker 1: it just wouldn't happen. I mean, it's guys like you
- 53:04Speaker 1: that started on our flight, people like you and Cheryl
- 53:06Speaker 1: Pop that continue the effort. And what a beautiful, beautiful
- 53:10Speaker 1: gift to the American veterans to fly in the DC
- 53:12Speaker 1: to see their memorials. I mean, it's just it's an
- 53:14Speaker 1: awe inspiring thing to participate with, and it's just a
- 53:17Speaker 1: beautiful thing for the community. And it is my distinct
- 53:20Speaker 1: and humble honor to be in a position to support
- 53:23Speaker 1: American military and veterans.
- 53:26Speaker 11: I mean, it's a labor of love. I've been doing
- 53:28Speaker 11: it for many years and I can't wait. With the
- 53:31Speaker 11: upcoming flight season, we have our flight lists coming up. WI,
- 53:34Speaker 11: I know you're going to talk more about Yeah, and
- 53:36Speaker 11: it's it's just tremendous. And you saw you saw it
- 53:40Speaker 11: on display last night at the oh Yeah State of Honor.
- 53:45Speaker 11: And to see those three individuals and two of them
- 53:48Speaker 11: get a Congressional Medal of Honor, I mean, and another
- 53:50Speaker 11: warrant officer no less, United States Army. You talk about
- 53:53Speaker 11: somebody right out of Central Casting. And I'm sure over
- 53:57Speaker 11: time we're going to hear more and more about this operation,
- 54:00Speaker 11: but just what the President mentioned last night, it sounds
- 54:03Speaker 11: like it could have easily went south and we could
- 54:05Speaker 11: have had another Jimmy Carter Iran hostage disaster. What that
- 54:10Speaker 11: pilot did, and if anybody knows what a chinook is,
- 54:13Speaker 11: those things are huge, and that's what is used to
- 54:15Speaker 11: transport our special forces. And for him to land that
- 54:19Speaker 11: thing on target, you know, going through the injuries that
- 54:23Speaker 11: he did, after.
- 54:24Speaker 1: Being shot and bleeding profusely, the guy basically.
- 54:27Speaker 11: Passed, Yeah, absolutely, I mean I was just in tears
- 54:31Speaker 11: sitting there, you know, to see that. And then of
- 54:35Speaker 11: course the one hundred year old World War two Korean
- 54:39Speaker 11: War Vietnam basically ACE once again didn't get into the
- 54:43Speaker 11: whole citation, but to take over two hundred bullets and
- 54:47Speaker 11: still bring down multiple planes, you know, to put that
- 54:50Speaker 11: on display for the entire country. Like I said, I
- 54:53Speaker 11: wept like a little kid to even see. And I
- 54:56Speaker 11: don't care if maybe one or two or how many.
- 54:59Speaker 11: But still the the greater majority of the left was
- 55:01Speaker 11: standing up, and even the look on Mark Kelly's face
- 55:04Speaker 11: he knew being another a Navy eighty eat or two.
- 55:08Speaker 11: What that one hundred year old pilot went through. Oh my,
- 55:12Speaker 11: that that was just awesome.
- 55:13Speaker 1: He fought off seven Soviet fighter planes in nineteen fifty two.
- 55:18Speaker 1: He took two hundred and sixty three bullets, got seriously injured.
- 55:22Speaker 1: And Donald Trump mentioned, I guess it was this. It
- 55:25Speaker 1: was a secret. He said his story was secret for
- 55:27Speaker 1: every fifty years. I guess it's because it was nineteen
- 55:29Speaker 1: fifty two, at the height of the Cold War and
- 55:31Speaker 1: he got into a dogfight with the Russians or the Soviets.
- 55:35Speaker 11: Absolutely, that's like.
- 55:37Speaker 1: It was like one of the War Three things.
- 55:38Speaker 11: That that time will never deglassify. Yeah, I can say
- 55:41Speaker 11: that was certainty, sir.
- 55:43Speaker 3: Oh, I'm sure.
- 55:44Speaker 1: I'm sure. As someone who spent as much time as
- 55:46Speaker 1: you did underwater in a nuclear powered submarine with nuclear
- 55:49Speaker 1: weapons on it, you probably can talk about heroism that
- 55:52Speaker 1: nobody knows of.
- 55:54Speaker 11: You know, I think, to quote a famous American on
- 55:56Speaker 11: the radio, both of those individuals and anybody that wears
- 55:59Speaker 11: that blue ribbon around her neck is the ultimate badassery.
- 56:03Speaker 11: Oh thanks again, Brian.
- 56:04Speaker 1: Staking you sure, and thank you, sir for your service
- 56:07Speaker 1: to our country and your ongoing patriotism and support through
- 56:11Speaker 1: Honor Flight tri State. We'll have Cheryl Pop on the
- 56:13Speaker 1: program end of the show to talk about the Flightless
- 56:15Speaker 1: Honor Flight coming to March eighth. It is six forty
- 56:24Speaker 1: ethic about par CD talk station, So free to call man.
- 56:26Speaker 1: You've got some response to the State of the Union,
- 56:28Speaker 1: a dress you're gonna hear from a big The Big
- 56:30Speaker 1: Picture with Jack ad Than talking about Democrats should thank
- 56:33Speaker 1: Fox News and then segue over to some response from
- 56:36Speaker 1: Donovan and Neil Americans for Prosperity to the State of
- 56:38Speaker 1: the Union address. Last night we get Adam Keller's response
- 56:42Speaker 1: to it as well eight oh five with Local Well

- 56:50Speaker 1: the Union address as well as the Cincinnati Exchange, which
- 56:52Speaker 1: is his news website growing by leaps and bounds out
- 56:56Speaker 1: of site. Is Judgingapolitan of the prife of price of
- 56:59Speaker 1: perfect meal nihilism. That's today thirty and then again Cheryl
- 57:02Speaker 1: Pop coming up at eight forty five talk with the
- 57:04Speaker 1: Flightless hon Or Flight five point three seven four nine
- 57:07Speaker 1: fifty five hundred, eight hundred eight two three talk Pound
- 57:09Speaker 1: five fifty on at and T funds. Of course, Donald
- 57:11Speaker 1: Trump pushing to have that Save Act pass. Of course,
- 57:13Speaker 1: everyone thinks that is a great idea, with the exception
- 57:16Speaker 1: of about twenty percent of the American people across the
- 57:18Speaker 1: board politically, everyone Republicans, Democrats. I go back to my point,
- 57:23Speaker 1: does anybody want to cheat? Donald Trump said it out loud.
- 57:27Speaker 1: He said they don't want identification the Democrats because they
- 57:30Speaker 1: want to cheat. And going back to the comments made
- 57:32Speaker 1: earlier in the obvious point of Donald Trump's statement along
- 57:34Speaker 1: those lines, if you do you believe that there's a
- 57:37Speaker 1: possibility of cheating, if anybody can cheat, ask yourself how
- 57:41Speaker 1: that can happen? And does anybody want the opportunity to
- 57:46Speaker 1: cheat in an election? There's no Democrat that can stay
- 57:48Speaker 1: with a straight face. I do want that opportunity, and
- 57:50Speaker 1: yet their actions suggests they do.
- 57:55Speaker 5: So.
- 57:55Speaker 1: Rather than say support the Save Act, which may give
- 57:57Speaker 1: them some wiggle room for some particular reason in the
- 58:00Speaker 1: verbiage of the act, the language, ask them directly, do
- 58:04Speaker 1: you want it possible for anybody to cheat? Because then
- 58:07Speaker 1: you can pivot over and say, well, Republicans can cheat,
- 58:09Speaker 1: then do you want Republicans to steal your election? They
- 58:13Speaker 1: regularly run around and accuse Republicans a cheating, most notably
- 58:15Speaker 1: Donald Trump. So if the answer must be no, I
- 58:17Speaker 1: don't want Republicans to be able to cheat. Okay, how
- 58:20Speaker 1: can they cheat? Well, they can pretend to be somebody else, now,
- 58:25Speaker 1: can't they. Well, it's the best way to prevent someone
- 58:28Speaker 1: from pretending to be somebody else, require a government issued
- 58:31Speaker 1: identification for casting a vote in a federal election. Do
- 58:34Speaker 1: you want your state elections? Do you have total control
- 58:36Speaker 1: over that? That's what the Constitution says. But as so
- 58:38Speaker 1: far as federal elections are concerned, federal law is supreme
- 58:41Speaker 1: supremacy clause. So if they were to pass the Save Act,
- 58:45Speaker 1: that would take out a loophole, a loophole that allows
- 58:47Speaker 1: people to cheat, period. May you put them on the
- 58:53Speaker 1: spot with that kind of question, don't you? And it
- 58:58Speaker 1: cracked me up this morning as I read and I
- 58:59Speaker 1: saw the article yesterday the United States Postal Service, you
- 59:02Speaker 1: know those mail in votes we kind of get concerned about.
- 59:05Speaker 1: You know, we got ballot harvesting, one person dropping off
- 59:08Speaker 1: for several hundred ballots to drop off. That kind of
- 59:10Speaker 1: thing happens all the time. Maybe another Navid avenue for cheating.
- 59:15Speaker 1: United States Postal Service cannot be sued for damages for
- 59:20Speaker 1: intentionally failing to deliver mail. Intentional is an important word
- 59:25Speaker 1: in that statement. A postal service person says, I am
- 59:30Speaker 1: not going to deliver mail for whatever reason. Maybe that
- 59:37Speaker 1: reason would be because I don't want these votes cast.
- 59:40Speaker 1: That could be a reason, but they can't be sued
- 59:43Speaker 1: for damages for that. Five for decision yesterday, a majority
- 59:47Speaker 1: opinion written of all people by Justice Clarence Thomas said
- 59:50Speaker 1: government sovereign immunity bars claims for undelivered mail. The United
- 59:53Speaker 1: States enjoys sovereign immunity and cannot be sued without its consent,
- 59:58Speaker 1: citing the Federal Torts Claims Act. Postal Service versus Conen
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: was the case dispute between Texas landlord and her local
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: post office. Conan alleged at the postal worker intentionally withheld
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: and returned mail addressed to her entertenance at two rental
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: properties she owned, causing her financial harm and emotional distress.
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: Administrative complaints failed. Cone ensued the United States and Federal court,
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: saying hey state law claims including nuisances, tortious interference, and conversion.
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: Federal court dismissed the claims citing the FTCA Postal exception,
- 1:00:34Speaker 1: which preserves immunity for any claim arising out of a loss, miscarriage,
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: or negligent transmission of letters or postal matters. Well, I
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: just pivot over and think, if you can't sue them
- 1:00:43Speaker 1: for absolutely outright refusing to deliver mail to any given
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: location or pick it up, this may suggest that they
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: can't be sued or otherwise held accountable for intentionally not
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: delivering ballots that were sent through the US postal system.
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: Interesting way of viewing that, isn't it, Mike, I see
- 1:01:01Speaker 1: her on the phone. I'm dying to talking, but I'm
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: out of time. I just looked up don't want to
- 1:01:04Speaker 1: get the Harry oh I ball from Joe Strecker at
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: six fright to forty five. Did you buy Wednesday? Brian Thomas,
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: gonna go to the phones. Thank you, Mike for holding
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: over the brake there. Welcome to the program sir, Happy Wednesday?
- 1:01:14Speaker 5: Hi, Brian?
- 1:01:15Speaker 8: Uh watching the stam A Union last night when Trump
- 1:01:19Speaker 8: brought up the part about but the Americans first, their
- 1:01:23Speaker 8: safety first over illegal aliens and none of the Democrats
- 1:01:27Speaker 8: set up of course?
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: Right?
- 1:01:28Speaker 8: And Uh? I was watching Fox News and they shut
- 1:01:31Speaker 8: one of the congress I'm not sure who he was,
- 1:01:33Speaker 8: he said towards the back, and he was like looking
- 1:01:36Speaker 8: down and away from Trump. He would not make our
- 1:01:39Speaker 8: contact with Trump. And I looked at that slew my friends,
- 1:01:42Speaker 8: like that's a broken man right there. The Democrats have
- 1:01:45Speaker 8: broken him.
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: Yeah, the fall in line.
- 1:01:48Speaker 8: It's like, you know, he wanted to stand up and cheer,
- 1:01:51Speaker 8: but he he would He knew that if he did,
- 1:01:53Speaker 8: he was gonna be in trouble.
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: Well, and that isn't that crazy. The man has, assuming
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: he has his own convictions and and does personally believe
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: it would have been an appropriate thing to stand up
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: at any given mode, including when the United States hockey
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: team is being praised. Most Democrats didn't even stand up
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: for that, so the guys obviously got reservations about sitting down.
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: He is reflecting a behavior that looks like he's cowering
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: and embarrassed because he won't stand up. That man has
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: sacrificed his own principles and values in the name of
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: what unity among the Democrats, unity that makes them look
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: anti American. If I may be so bold, I don't understand.
- 1:02:30Speaker 8: I really don't right as constituents too. I mean, that's
- 1:02:33Speaker 8: what they He's not down with astituents.
- 1:02:36Speaker 1: Right, you can say that with a Save America Act
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: as well. That one's really I think it's a It's
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: a winner for Trump and that was I think part
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: of the brilliance of the address. Say what you want
- 1:02:43Speaker 1: about Trump saving but he at every opportunity called out
- 1:02:47Speaker 1: Congress to pass common sense legislation, and he at every
- 1:02:50Speaker 1: opportunity pointed to the Democrats, asserting blame where blame was due,
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: and pointing out the Democrats or the Republicans have better
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: policies for it, pointing out ways in which the Democrats
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: are obviously in that particular case, anti American. You know,
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: do you believe in protecting your constituents, the residents of
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: the United States, or basically any other human being in
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: the globe? And we can't put ourselves first. It's the
- 1:03:10Speaker 1: same reason they didn't stand for the hockey team. That
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: hockey team doesn't represent politics, it represents America on the
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: global stage. You can't stand up for their victory. And
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: clearly they hate America. I think that's the only conclusion
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: one can draw. Or they're pretending and ask yourself why
- 1:03:26Speaker 1: that person. If we are our analysis of that or
- 1:03:29Speaker 1: is his point is well taken? What that man would
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: stand to lose by well, maybe standing for the United
- 1:03:37Speaker 1: States hockey team's recognition. What possible criticism could you levy
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: on that he's proud of America? He's a xenophob Really
- 1:03:46Speaker 1: is that what you've become? Democrats? I want to bring
- 1:03:53Speaker 1: this back up. Christopher Smithon is gonna be talking about
- 1:03:55Speaker 1: this one. This was Gavin Knew some statement the other
- 1:03:57Speaker 1: day where he's talking down to black people. He is
- 1:03:58Speaker 1: insulting them. That's my conclusion. It's the conclusion a lot
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: of people have reached. He's speaking to a black audience
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: of black voters in Georgia, promoting his book of all Things.
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: I'm not trying to impress you. I'm just trying to
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: impress upon you. I'm like you, White Governor Gavin Newsom.
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: I'm no better than you. I'm a nine to sixty
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: SAT guy, not trying to offend anyone. Literally, a nine
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: sixty SAT guy. You've never seen me read a speech.
- 1:04:25Speaker 1: Because I cannot read a speech. Maybe I'm in the
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: wrong business to be in. Nick Knage pointed out he
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: actually slowed down the pace of his speech, and she
- 1:04:32Speaker 1: viewed that as insulting, as if black people are incapable
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: of sticking with the narrative as he speaks in real time. No,
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: he's got to slow it down. And of course the
- 1:04:41Speaker 1: ultimate insult sort of pointing out his personal stupidity to
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: a group of black people, suggesting perhaps he's like them,
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: maybe he thinks they're stupid. Going back to the voter,
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: I d thing same kind of argument being made in
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: this particular case. I love this. I'm no fan of
- 1:04:56Speaker 1: Cornell less left wing activists extraordinary. He's been around a
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: long time, even ran for president. He's about as left
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: wing as you can get. Prominent spokesman for the black community.
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: Taking a blasted Governor Newsom, he saw through it. He
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: could have said, I'm just like you. I was born
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: of a woman, I face loss, pain and death just
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: like anybody else. But instead he thinks of black people
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: who brings up low sat scores. That mindset sits at
- 1:05:24Speaker 1: the core of white supremacy, the belief that black people
- 1:05:27Speaker 1: are less beautiful, less moral, less intelligent. Don't play with
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: us like that. Referencing Gavin Newsom, h yeah ed Cornell
- 1:05:40Speaker 1: West to the group of clear thinking individuals who can
- 1:05:43Speaker 1: see right through the nonsense. No, you're not too dumb
- 1:05:47Speaker 1: to get a photo ID, and yeah, you can do
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: better than Gavin Newsom on an SAT too. Just go
- 1:05:54Speaker 1: to school, pay attention and you'll be fine. Right works
- 1:05:57Speaker 1: that way for pretty much everybody. Anyway. Coming up on
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: the top of the hour, here, we're gonna hear the news,
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: of course we always do. We're gonna get the big
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: picture from Jack Adan and kindly waiting in the wings.
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: It's always great hearing from Jack brilliant, analy says he
- 1:06:08Speaker 1: will provide us and he'll explain why Democrats should thank
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: Fox News Dot and Neil at the State of the
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: Union recap coming over at the bottom of they are,
- 1:06:17Speaker 1: and maybe more opportunities to call later in the program.
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: But as of right now, looks like I've got a
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: full show, which I'm looking forward to, and I hope
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: you can stick around all morning. I'll be right back
- 1:06:25Speaker 1: after the news.
- 1:06:27Speaker 3: Today's top headlines coming up at the top.
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: Seven o six at fety five Krose Talk Station on
- 1:06:45Speaker 1: a Wednesday. That means it's time for the big picture.
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: Would be brilliance, Jack Athan, Welcome back to my dear
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: friend Jack, Athan, and thank you so much for spending
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: time with my listeners and me on a Wednesday, Sir.
- 1:06:54Speaker 9: Thank you as always for having me back.
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: Brian, always enjoy it, Always enjoy it real quick. I
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: know you get topic about it. This is going to
- 1:07:01Speaker 1: be good. I'm looking forward to Democrats should thank Fox News.
- 1:07:05Speaker 1: Did you see the State of the Union address? By
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: any chance? Jack? Just asking what a night.
- 1:07:10Speaker 9: We cheered heroes from World War Two and the liberation
- 1:07:14Speaker 9: of Venezuela just a month ago, We grieved with families
- 1:07:18Speaker 9: of Americans killed by illegal migrants, and joyously welcomed our
- 1:07:23Speaker 9: US men's hockey team minus Jack Hughes teeth. Brian, this
- 1:07:28Speaker 9: was the greatest State of the Union I have ever heard.
- 1:07:31Speaker 9: And that's not Reason's bias. And I go back to
- 1:07:34Speaker 9: Jack Kennedy bold state, but Brian, in terms of policy.
- 1:07:40Speaker 9: For me, the biggest news from last night's address was
- 1:07:43Speaker 9: the very first thing that President Trump talked about. What's
- 1:07:48Speaker 9: going to determine whether he holds onto Congress in November.
- 1:07:51Speaker 9: What millions of Americans finally got a chance to hear
- 1:07:54Speaker 9: about the Trump economy, how the presidents cut taxes and
- 1:08:00Speaker 9: returned huge refunds how Trump's crushed Biden's inflation, unleashed energy,
- 1:08:06Speaker 9: and brought American manufacturing back from communist China, boosting jobs
- 1:08:11Speaker 9: and national security. And when I say Americans adopting hearing
- 1:08:15Speaker 9: all of this, I'm not talking about those who focus
- 1:08:17Speaker 9: only on TikTok. We're talking about news junkies who seek
- 1:08:22Speaker 9: real news but instead are fed twenty four to seven
- 1:08:27Speaker 9: for weeks on end ice protesters in Minneapolis, and then
- 1:08:32Speaker 9: Savannah Guthrie's poor mother. I hope she comes back, and
- 1:08:36Speaker 9: now again Jeffrey Epstein and his loneness, the former Prince Andrew,
- 1:08:42Speaker 9: though not Donald Trump, much as the Democrats want to
- 1:08:45Speaker 9: hear it, because he had nothing to do with those scumbags.
- 1:08:48Speaker 9: Are the other stories important? Sure? Are they great for ratings,
- 1:08:53Speaker 9: you bet. But in case you haven't heard, folks, and
- 1:08:56Speaker 9: you probably haven't, President Trump has been pleading with reporters
- 1:09:00Speaker 9: in the White House and on Air Force One. We
- 1:09:03Speaker 9: had the tape to also report on what truly matters
- 1:09:07Speaker 9: to the American people, and not just when the Supreme
- 1:09:10Speaker 9: Court tries to torpedo his tariffs. Maybe we can talk
- 1:09:13Speaker 9: about that later, Brian, According to every poll starting with
- 1:09:18Speaker 9: primaries in three states next week, including Texas. Americans will
- 1:09:23Speaker 9: be voting chiefly on the economy, affordability if they're young,
- 1:09:29Speaker 9: whether they'll have jobs and can afford a house and
- 1:09:32Speaker 9: a family if they're older like us, whether we can
- 1:09:35Speaker 9: afford healthcare and groceries. I'm not going to repeat Trump's
- 1:09:39Speaker 9: answer from the beginning of his speech. If you missed it,
- 1:09:42Speaker 9: please watch or read his State of the Union. But
- 1:09:46Speaker 9: watching is so much fun. And also the Democrats response,
- 1:09:50Speaker 9: although their true response is not words, it's Joe Biden
- 1:09:54Speaker 9: and Chuck Schumer's record on the economy, the border, crime,
- 1:09:59Speaker 9: and foreign affairs. If Democrats are promising anything different from
- 1:10:03Speaker 9: Biden nomics, spend more, tax more, I haven't heard it,
- 1:10:07Speaker 9: only f Trump. That's an actual political ad BRODNSF Trump
- 1:10:13Speaker 9: over and over. And that's my point. We don't hear
- 1:10:17Speaker 9: much that's substantive on the news, nothing to compare with
- 1:10:21Speaker 9: the substance you and Joe serve up every hour of
- 1:10:24Speaker 9: every single morning. And I'm not being sick, a fanatic
- 1:10:27Speaker 9: or a friend. You invite guests from every point of
- 1:10:31Speaker 9: the political compass, and you make it entertaining. Now, we
- 1:10:34Speaker 9: don't expect the so called mainstream media, that Democrat media
- 1:10:40Speaker 9: to report anything like the truth about affordability, because what
- 1:10:44Speaker 9: could they say? Under Biden we hit nine percent inflation
- 1:10:49Speaker 9: cumulatively over his four years, more than twenty percent. Trump
- 1:10:54Speaker 9: is bringing down the inflation and prices as fast as
- 1:10:58Speaker 9: we'd like, of course, not we'd like it yesterday. But
- 1:11:01Speaker 9: inflation has come down and private sector wages are going
- 1:11:06Speaker 9: up thanks to growth, growth that even Democrats shutdowns cannot stop.
- 1:11:12Speaker 9: As I say, we don't expect the never Trump media
- 1:11:15Speaker 9: to report any of this. But what about the Fox
- 1:11:19Speaker 9: News Channel? Is Fox any more serious? I'm not talking
- 1:11:24Speaker 9: about the Fox Business Channel, Business channels, even CNBC and
- 1:11:28Speaker 9: Bloomberg they have to be serious because investors demand the
- 1:11:32Speaker 9: truth otherwise they lose money. But the Fox News Channel, Yes,
- 1:11:37Speaker 9: Brettbear's News Hour is as fair and balanced as Walter
- 1:11:41Speaker 9: Cronkite ever was, and Laura Ingram Sean Hannity. There are
- 1:11:46Speaker 9: substantive Fox News hosts. However, it's blockbuster shows, the Five,
- 1:11:53Speaker 9: Jesse Waters and Greg Gottfeldt. More often than not, they're
- 1:11:56Speaker 9: force feeding us fluff at the top of their shows,
- 1:12:01Speaker 9: their favorite story, the latest idiocy from Democrat front runners,
- 1:12:07Speaker 9: not candidates in this year's crucial midterm elections. We'd love
- 1:12:10Speaker 9: to see some of those people, and especially the Republicans.
- 1:12:13Speaker 9: No Fox News focuses on Democrats who may or may
- 1:12:18Speaker 9: not run in the twenty twenty eight presidential race two
- 1:12:23Speaker 9: years away. Rush Limbaugh's favorite joke was this made up
- 1:12:27Speaker 9: New York Times headline, meteor strikes Earth, Women and minorities
- 1:12:32Speaker 9: hardest hit. The Fox News version is not a joke.
- 1:12:37Speaker 9: Any day They're going to be running this breaking news
- 1:12:40Speaker 9: meteor strikes Earth. Kamala Harris orders a Harvey Wallbager, or
- 1:12:45Speaker 9: maybe meteor strikes California. Greasy Gavin escapes Ta Davos, Or
- 1:12:50Speaker 9: how about meteor strikes Taiwan. AOC can't decide whether the
- 1:12:55Speaker 9: defendant or whether Taiwan is beneath the equator. Friends, I
- 1:13:01Speaker 9: would love to have worked for Fox. Who am I
- 1:13:04Speaker 9: to criticize my betters? And I love the fun they
- 1:13:07Speaker 9: have the five and Guttfeld. As for Jesse Waters, he
- 1:13:11Speaker 9: analyzes serious news stories with wit and terrific insight better
- 1:13:16Speaker 9: than anyone what he feels like it. But the danger
- 1:13:20Speaker 9: is that Fox is doing for Kamala, Gavin and AOC
- 1:13:25Speaker 9: what CNN and MS DNC did in twenty sixteen for
- 1:13:30Speaker 9: Donald Trump, the left wing networks called Trump Names twenty
- 1:13:34Speaker 9: four to seven. They endlessly played Trump's sound bites that
- 1:13:38Speaker 9: they thought made him look as nine. CNN and the
- 1:13:41Speaker 9: other Marxists congratulated themselves on sinking Trump's candidacy while they
- 1:13:47Speaker 9: were actually handing him the GOP nomination and then the
- 1:13:51Speaker 9: presidency thanks as The New York Times now admits, and
- 1:13:55Speaker 9: it's not a joke headline, thanks to billions of dollars
- 1:13:59Speaker 9: in free publicity. Worse yet, they let Trump set the
- 1:14:03Speaker 9: agenda on their news shows every night. That's what Fox
- 1:14:07Speaker 9: News is doing now, letting Democrats distract us with anything
- 1:14:12Speaker 9: but the number one issue, where James Carville, a Democrat,
- 1:14:16Speaker 9: called the economy stupid. Brian, this is not just my opinion.
- 1:14:22Speaker 9: One of The Five's regulars, Dana Perino, recently had the
- 1:14:26Speaker 9: guts to suggest that maybe, just maybe, instead of leading
- 1:14:30Speaker 9: her top rated show with the latest words salad from
- 1:14:33Speaker 9: Kamala Harris, the Five ought to discuss you guessed it affordability.
- 1:14:39Speaker 9: For her trouble, the former Bush spokesperson got her head
- 1:14:43Speaker 9: bitten off by her good friend Greg Guttfeld, who said
- 1:14:46Speaker 9: only half jokingly. I don't like being told what to
- 1:14:49Speaker 9: talk about, so they went on to yuck it up
- 1:14:53Speaker 9: about Kamalo. What President Trump knows is that the joke
- 1:14:58Speaker 9: may be on us, because just CNN and MSNBC sucked
- 1:15:02Speaker 9: all the oxygen away from Trump's gop rivals in twenty sixteen,
- 1:15:07Speaker 9: Fox now seems to be elevating with their jokes Kamala,
- 1:15:11Speaker 9: Gavin and AOC Well. Republicans may say good, those three
- 1:15:16Speaker 9: stooges cannot win in twenty twenty eight the way CNN
- 1:15:20Speaker 9: thought Trump could not win in twenty sixteen. But look
- 1:15:24Speaker 9: at your TV set. While Fox is sticking its tongue
- 1:15:27Speaker 9: out at those democrats, half the country is mesmerized by
- 1:15:32Speaker 9: their faces, which are all very attractive. Just as Donald Trump,
- 1:15:37Speaker 9: whatever you may think of him, gleans on TV like
- 1:15:40Speaker 9: twenty four carried Gold, A picture is worth a thousand insults.
- 1:15:45Speaker 9: To sum up, my friend, I'm not telling Fox what
- 1:15:48Speaker 9: to report. Even Dana Marino can't do that, although recently,
- 1:15:52Speaker 9: in just the last few days since Thursday, it seems
- 1:15:55Speaker 9: her speaking out and Trump's plead to reporters maybe having
- 1:16:00Speaker 9: impact the tariff decision and Iran and Mexican drug cartels
- 1:16:05Speaker 9: are too big to ignore. I am urging everybody to
- 1:16:09Speaker 9: watch news shows that treat us like adults, not like
- 1:16:13Speaker 9: children addicted to TikTok. Better Yet, don't get all your
- 1:16:17Speaker 9: news from TV. I begin each day after listening to
- 1:16:21Speaker 9: your show, Brian, religiously thank you by reading RealClearPolitics dot com,
- 1:16:27Speaker 9: which is packed with facts and analysis from both sides
- 1:16:31Speaker 9: of the aisle, one right next to the other. And
- 1:16:34Speaker 9: even if you laughs, So what are you saying, mister substance.
- 1:16:38Speaker 1: Well, I thank you. I appreciate the kind words. Oh,
- 1:16:41Speaker 1: he's back, he's don with the nail. He's with Americans
- 1:16:43Speaker 1: for prosperity, providing a great opportunity for us to get
- 1:16:46Speaker 1: involved and make it so easy. And don O, Neil,
- 1:16:49Speaker 1: welcome back to the morning show. It's great having you
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: on this morning. Do you enjoy the speech last night?
- 1:16:54Speaker 8: Oh?
- 1:16:54Speaker 3: Who doesn't enjoy two hours of political Uh, it was
- 1:16:58Speaker 3: a good one. It's always, you know, being undbserver in
- 1:17:01Speaker 3: a long time, you know, being a vote in the process, right,
- 1:17:03Speaker 3: It's it's always a good it's always interesting to hear
- 1:17:05Speaker 3: from the presidency reactions.
- 1:17:07Speaker 5: It is.
- 1:17:07Speaker 1: And something would a bounce off you because it was
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: a for to me a prominent future in the in
- 1:17:11Speaker 1: the in the speech last night with regard to the
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: Save America Act to make you know, require a photo ID,
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: which that again the vast majority of Americans of all
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: political stripes, embraced the concept. It was brought to my attention.
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: And maybe it's me not paying enough attention to all
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: the minutia that's going out in the world. The other day,
- 1:17:25Speaker 1: but we were doing a call of action, which he
- 1:17:27Speaker 1: regularly suggest you know, you got something that we need
- 1:17:29Speaker 1: to do, and one of the things that was suggested
- 1:17:32Speaker 1: we get in touch with our elected officials. Bernie Morina
- 1:17:35Speaker 1: was identified, and I forgive me for not remembering the
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: specific guests, but to get them to support the Save
- 1:17:40Speaker 1: America Acts. And someone called me and pointed out that
- 1:17:44Speaker 1: the person standing in the way of that being voted
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: on advancing it for a vote is Mitch McConnell. Of
- 1:17:50Speaker 1: all people, Mitch McConnell is responding, has the power to
- 1:17:53Speaker 1: either bring a bill for a vote or not, and
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: he's the one that won't bring it up for a vote.
- 1:17:57Speaker 1: That's I looked online and search some articles and that
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: seems to be the case. So my friends in the Commonwealth.
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: What the hell's with Mitch McConnell. So call to action, Donovan,
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: I'm stealing some of your thunder. Call to action everybody
- 1:18:10Speaker 1: in Ohio and Kentucky, Indiana, if you're listening to me
- 1:18:12Speaker 1: in any state, call and ask Mitch McConnell to get
- 1:18:15Speaker 1: off his butt and bring that up for a vote. Okay,
- 1:18:18Speaker 1: I said my piece. Now you may put it. Now
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: you may pint the voters.
- 1:18:26Speaker 3: Stuff makes a lot of sense. I think it's you know,
- 1:18:28Speaker 3: it's what folks want, you want to know, and I
- 1:18:30Speaker 3: think we do. You know, our folks. I think here
- 1:18:32Speaker 3: in Ohio we do a great job with it. But
- 1:18:35Speaker 3: we're one of fifty states and were talking about national elections.
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: You want to know.
- 1:18:38Speaker 3: Some of this stuff is consistent and there's confidence and
- 1:18:42Speaker 3: it's important for that confidence piece. So hopefully they can't
- 1:18:45Speaker 3: get that done.
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: Amen. Brother. Anyway, some of the highlights for you last night, donovd.
- 1:18:51Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I think you know the president one I
- 1:18:53Speaker 3: think was, you know, and we know how anybody who
- 1:18:56Speaker 3: can following President Trump knows he likes to go off script.
- 1:19:00Speaker 3: But I think you know it certainly had those deviations
- 1:19:03Speaker 3: that are on brand for him, But I think some
- 1:19:05Speaker 3: of the stuff that was really important here that he
- 1:19:06Speaker 3: did I think deliver very well is a listing some
- 1:19:12Speaker 3: of the things that were accomplished in the last twelve
- 1:19:14Speaker 3: months since his administration took over, casting a positive vision
- 1:19:18Speaker 3: for what we need to do to truly embrace that
- 1:19:21Speaker 3: gold at the Golden age for a country. Ultimately, we
- 1:19:23Speaker 3: need Congress to do those things though, if we want
- 1:19:26Speaker 3: to have them last and be impactful. But then, you know,
- 1:19:30Speaker 3: I think again helped highlight where Americans are feeling the
- 1:19:35Speaker 3: most pain, and it's in that affordability space. I think
- 1:19:38Speaker 3: he rightly called out the Democrats who have kind of
- 1:19:41Speaker 3: hijacked that and somehow tried to pull a reversus a
- 1:19:45Speaker 3: card on the American people and say they're the ones
- 1:19:47Speaker 3: who've been working for affordability when we know biden nomin
- 1:19:49Speaker 3: its policies that they embraced just twelve twenty four months
- 1:19:53Speaker 3: ago put us in the situations that we find ourselves in.
- 1:19:57Speaker 3: And it wasn't just putting blame, to be clear, it
- 1:19:59Speaker 3: was up. Those policies are bad Bidenomics top down, you know,
- 1:20:04Speaker 3: Washington d C. Taking control of your tax dollar policies
- 1:20:07Speaker 3: are bad. The way we do we make American life
- 1:20:10Speaker 3: more affordable is by empowering patients with their healthcare dollars,
- 1:20:14Speaker 3: by creating more energy, not less, by increasing the supply
- 1:20:18Speaker 3: of housing, by cutting red tape, not you know, approaching
- 1:20:22Speaker 3: it with rent control New York style limited supply economics.
- 1:20:28Speaker 3: And so overall, I think the President did a great
- 1:20:31Speaker 3: job outlining a lot of the things that we're hearing
- 1:20:33Speaker 3: from people at the doors across the state of Ohio
- 1:20:36Speaker 3: wanting addressed.
- 1:20:37Speaker 1: Yeah, and good fodder for the election coming up as well,
- 1:20:39Speaker 1: and he did go. I think he did a great
- 1:20:41Speaker 1: job contrasting the good stuff that came from exclusively Republicans.
- 1:20:45Speaker 1: You alluded to it. He pointed out that Congress pass
- 1:20:47Speaker 1: the largest tux tax cuts in American history under his
- 1:20:49Speaker 1: one big, Beautiful bill, and he pointed to the Democrats,
- 1:20:51Speaker 1: he said, all Democrats, every single one of them, voted
- 1:20:53Speaker 1: against it, and then went to point out how we
- 1:20:56Speaker 1: were going to get the benefit of it. What a
- 1:20:58Speaker 1: populous thing to do. Trust on auto loans if you
- 1:21:01Speaker 1: buy a car in America, no tax on tips, no
- 1:21:04Speaker 1: tax on overtime, expanded child tax credit. Those are big
- 1:21:08Speaker 1: issues for the working class Americans. So he said out loud,
- 1:21:11Speaker 1: Democrats were against all of this. Look what I did
- 1:21:14Speaker 1: for you and you are now reaping the benefit of it.
- 1:21:17Speaker 1: Just one point among many where he pointed out the
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: stark contrast that exists between the parties.
- 1:21:23Speaker 3: Well and does a great job too in that topic
- 1:21:25Speaker 3: was the Megan I think was her name waitress right
- 1:21:30Speaker 3: where he talked about how those policies within the Working
- 1:21:33Speaker 3: Family Tax Cuts, the one big beautiful bill, have delivered
- 1:21:36Speaker 3: I think something like five thousand dollars five in money
- 1:21:40Speaker 3: back from the federal government, not money back, but like
- 1:21:43Speaker 3: just a lower tax bill for a true working film.
- 1:21:45Speaker 3: And how many of your listeners, Brian, I know folks
- 1:21:48Speaker 3: you know here in Richmond County where I live, who
- 1:21:50Speaker 3: work two jobs, ones in a factory, the other's a waitress.
- 1:21:53Speaker 3: Works that you know, kids go to school. We all
- 1:21:55Speaker 3: know a Megan out there. And I think that gives
- 1:21:58Speaker 3: you know what we need now, right our folks in
- 1:22:00Speaker 3: Congress to take that playbook that the President laid out
- 1:22:03Speaker 3: and connect these policies to the people that they are benefiting.
- 1:22:08Speaker 3: Good policy equals good politics, and that's what the President
- 1:22:12Speaker 3: was outlining last night.
- 1:22:13Speaker 1: During the State of the Union Americus preparais to prosperity,
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: Donald Anyey, We're going to hold him over, bring him
- 1:22:16Speaker 1: back for a few more comments about the state of
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: the Union. And I've got a whole lot more coming
- 1:22:20Speaker 1: up after Top of the aar Adam Kahler and studio
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: or Adam Kayler talking about state of Union address Judge
- 1:22:24Speaker 1: of PAULA Tonell in a little more at a little
- 1:22:25Speaker 1: less than an hour in The Perfect Nihilism, Cheryl Poppin
- 1:22:28Speaker 1: on a flight tri State March eighth, the Flightless Honor
- 1:22:31Speaker 1: Flight more though with Don the tog station Son forty fifty,
- 1:22:35Speaker 1: i'm k City Talks Station. Joe Charuker called me outs
- 1:22:37Speaker 1: Women's Mitch mcconnid's no longer sent a majority leader soon
- 1:22:41Speaker 1: is Yeah. Well, the point is, Mitch McConnell leads the
- 1:22:44Speaker 1: Senate Rules Committee, and he's refusing to schedule a vote
- 1:22:47Speaker 1: on the Save Act, which prevents it from moving forward effectively,
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: just in the way it wouldn't advance if he was
- 1:22:51Speaker 1: Senate majority leader. There's the context for that, So call
- 1:22:55Speaker 1: Senator Mitch McConnell and tell him to get off his
- 1:22:57Speaker 1: But sorry, Donald and Neil just wanted to correct the record,
- 1:22:59Speaker 1: make sure everybody was clear from where my criticism was
- 1:23:01Speaker 1: coming from. Donald and Nell. Regarding the State of the
- 1:23:03Speaker 1: Union address last evening, I thought it weird. I know,
- 1:23:08Speaker 1: the Democrats refused to stand up anytime evil orange man
- 1:23:10Speaker 1: has an idea or thought, but the Olympic hockey team.
- 1:23:14Speaker 1: They wouldn't stand for the damn Olympic Hockey team. Donovan
- 1:23:17Speaker 1: and Neil, what I mean, did do they just hate America? Sir?
- 1:23:21Speaker 4: I don't.
- 1:23:22Speaker 1: I don't get it.
- 1:23:24Speaker 3: I mean, I think, well, what's interesting here too, is,
- 1:23:27Speaker 3: you know, we get a lot of polling, we get
- 1:23:29Speaker 3: a lot of insight American The American people want two things.
- 1:23:34Speaker 3: They want solutions, and they don't want people pointing fingers
- 1:23:39Speaker 3: at others and saying they're not getting things done. And
- 1:23:42Speaker 3: when you have an entire wing of the party right
- 1:23:45Speaker 3: that is representative of a portion of this country failing
- 1:23:49Speaker 3: to even applaud Olympic gold medal winner, you're failing on
- 1:23:56Speaker 3: both of those fronts. And it's you know, good on
- 1:23:59Speaker 3: President Trump to help highlight that right because with the
- 1:24:01Speaker 3: way so much media exists today, you know, you'd think
- 1:24:05Speaker 3: most Americans are unhappy with the President, and this agenda,
- 1:24:10Speaker 3: this suffordability agenda. But the reality is is it's a
- 1:24:12Speaker 3: fraction of the country. And the Democrats are exposed on
- 1:24:16Speaker 3: national TV for the hypocrisy that they bring to Washington
- 1:24:20Speaker 3: every day.
- 1:24:21Speaker 1: Yes they are, and you're right. The resounding cry from
- 1:24:24Speaker 1: the left wing media is that everything is terrible in
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: this country. It's all Donald Trump's fault. We just need
- 1:24:29Speaker 1: to wait around for November when the Democrats are going
- 1:24:30Speaker 1: to take over like like a title wave. I just
- 1:24:34Speaker 1: don't know where those predictions come from. Donald. I know
- 1:24:36Speaker 1: history suggests that the party in power in the midterms
- 1:24:39Speaker 1: ends up losing seats in Congress. It doesn't have to
- 1:24:42Speaker 1: be like that. If the party out of power are crazy,
- 1:24:46Speaker 1: you know, I mean, I'm sorry. I try to think
- 1:24:49Speaker 1: from a logical, reasonable perspective on anything. I try to
- 1:24:52Speaker 1: act like Switzerland, to be neutral when I'm assessing any
- 1:24:54Speaker 1: given problem. You know, I look at a thing like
- 1:24:56Speaker 1: the Save Act, where the vast majority of the people
- 1:24:58Speaker 1: want that and Democrats are obstruct against it. The only
- 1:25:01Speaker 1: thing you can come to conclusion is they want an
- 1:25:04Speaker 1: opportunity to cheat. I phrased it early in the program.
- 1:25:07Speaker 1: Let's quit asking if they support the Save Act. Let's
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: ask them directly, do they want an opportunity to cheat
- 1:25:13Speaker 1: in an election? Is it okay in any given circumstance
- 1:25:16Speaker 1: to cheat in an election? And they've got to say no
- 1:25:18Speaker 1: to that, in which case you can respond by saying, well,
- 1:25:21Speaker 1: the opportunity to cheat exists because you don't ask for
- 1:25:24Speaker 1: people's proof of identification. Problem solved.
- 1:25:28Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, well, I think the president you know,
- 1:25:33Speaker 3: last night gives gave Republicans, right, conservatives at large, a
- 1:25:39Speaker 3: framework from which to stand on that moral high ground. Well,
- 1:25:43Speaker 3: whether it's on the Save Act, the economy, healthcare where
- 1:25:46Speaker 3: his you know, his comments on healthcare too quick deviation here.
- 1:25:49Speaker 3: Oh yeah, we're going to take the money from the
- 1:25:51Speaker 3: corporations right where we've been subsidizing the Unaffordable Care Act.
- 1:25:55Speaker 3: Another populist, now, yeah, populist, but also free market point right, yep, Brian,
- 1:26:01Speaker 3: And that we're gonna If we're gonna spend that money,
- 1:26:03Speaker 3: how about we put it into patients accounts, HSA's health
- 1:26:06Speaker 3: savings accounts. Great policy, yep. Let's put it into those
- 1:26:10Speaker 3: people's pockets and give them the buying power to go
- 1:26:13Speaker 3: out and make decisions rather than funding the six largest
- 1:26:17Speaker 3: health insurance corporations in the country. This isn't anti free market.
- 1:26:20Speaker 3: It's just a matter of saying, let's let's empower the people,
- 1:26:23Speaker 3: just like in education, with that free marketing accounts.
- 1:26:26Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, we're.
- 1:26:27Speaker 3: Going to empower the people to make those choices. Presidents,
- 1:26:31Speaker 3: given that framework, we need Republicans conservatives be comfortable going
- 1:26:34Speaker 3: out not being mean, not being aggressive, not being hostile
- 1:26:37Speaker 3: or unsavory, but standing on the moral high ground that
- 1:26:41Speaker 3: the President took yesterday at the State of the Union
- 1:26:44Speaker 3: and pointing out we've got the right solutions. We are
- 1:26:47Speaker 3: the we are you know, we're the free market is
- 1:26:49Speaker 3: the way. We just got to go out and be
- 1:26:52Speaker 3: bold champions and support of it.
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: Right, and who if given a pile of money that
- 1:26:56Speaker 1: otherwise would have gone directly the insurance companies without any
- 1:26:58Speaker 1: sort of oversight affordable care, he said, it was meant
- 1:27:01Speaker 1: for the insurance companies, not for the people, without our
- 1:27:03Speaker 1: government giving them hundreds of millions and billions of dollars prices.
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: Sword give the money, that money directly to the people. Now,
- 1:27:11Speaker 1: if you are given a pile of cash for the
- 1:27:13Speaker 1: purposes of purchasing health insurance, you will make better and
- 1:27:15Speaker 1: more informed decisions. You go out and have the private market,
- 1:27:18Speaker 1: you get into maybe a broker like my friends. It
- 1:27:20Speaker 1: covers sensy to go out into the world and find
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: a less expensive but better policy for you. That's efficiency,
- 1:27:26Speaker 1: that's going to bring you the best result for your family.
- 1:27:28Speaker 1: And only you are in a position to make the
- 1:27:30Speaker 1: best determination about what's good for you and not for
- 1:27:32Speaker 1: everybody else in the world. That was the failure of Obamacare.
- 1:27:35Speaker 1: It was everybody gets one single policy, everybody has to
- 1:27:39Speaker 1: fund every single thing that's not what's good for you
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: or me necessarily. So free market principles would be wonderfully
- 1:27:47Speaker 1: wonderful at work here if we got the pile of
- 1:27:49Speaker 1: money ourselves.
- 1:27:51Speaker 3: But the great thing is right, you know, from our organization,
- 1:27:54Speaker 3: we've been working on this for a while, our Personal
- 1:27:58Speaker 3: Option campaign on lines very nice, nicely with the President's
- 1:28:01Speaker 3: Great American Health Care Plan, you know, fund patience, ensures
- 1:28:06Speaker 3: and then remove barriers to care and ensure that we
- 1:28:08Speaker 3: have transparency and where all of this money is flowing.
- 1:28:12Speaker 3: It's pretty simple stuff. The barriers here, though, are our
- 1:28:17Speaker 3: friends in the Democrat wing of the country, you know, Congress,
- 1:28:21Speaker 3: who want to maintain this March to death of Obamacare.
- 1:28:26Speaker 3: They can't admit it's been a failure. And then the
- 1:28:28Speaker 3: other side of it is the health insurance industry, the
- 1:28:31Speaker 3: folks who want to maintain the status quo because it's
- 1:28:33Speaker 3: working pretty well for them. And meanwhile, Americans like us
- 1:28:37Speaker 3: are stuck in the middle paying more in premiums because
- 1:28:40Speaker 3: of bad policy enacted and to the Obama administration.
- 1:28:43Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I I did not stay up to watch
- 1:28:47Speaker 1: it Donald, and I like to point out my listeners
- 1:28:49Speaker 1: and honest with him, I am I can't stay up
- 1:28:51Speaker 1: late enough to watch I get up at two thirty
- 1:28:53Speaker 1: in the morning and usually go to bed at eight o'clock,
- 1:28:54Speaker 1: which was the case last night. I read the whole
- 1:28:56Speaker 1: thing cover to cover, and I can thankfully read faster
- 1:28:58Speaker 1: than this speech was done. But it read. I think
- 1:29:03Speaker 1: it read much better than a lot of things you
- 1:29:05Speaker 1: read from Donald Trump, because his conversational verbiage can be
- 1:29:09Speaker 1: a bit jumbled, and if you don't hear the emotion
- 1:29:12Speaker 1: of the voice inflection you're reading something, you're like, this
- 1:29:14Speaker 1: doesn't sound evensane. But this reads really well. And that's
- 1:29:19Speaker 1: not an insult to Trump. It's anybody who engages in
- 1:29:21Speaker 1: conversational English. It just doesn't read as well as it
- 1:29:23Speaker 1: sounds when you're saying it. And I'll put myself in
- 1:29:26Speaker 1: that basket as well. But overall, I have to give
- 1:29:29Speaker 1: props to the speech writers on this. He scored. I
- 1:29:31Speaker 1: think he scored some great points. He obviously highlighted the
- 1:29:34Speaker 1: vast sea of difference between the Democrats and Republicans, and
- 1:29:38Speaker 1: he pointed out in many opportunities they are going to
- 1:29:41Speaker 1: turn into wonderful campaign ads as we move into November.
- 1:29:45Speaker 1: The sort of bizarre reality is that it is within
- 1:29:48Speaker 1: the Democrat Party again, going back to not standing for
- 1:29:50Speaker 1: the hockey team. What a great illustration of insanity right there.
- 1:29:55Speaker 1: I just I think they're going to really regret the
- 1:29:57Speaker 1: day that they didn't stand up at least for the
- 1:29:59Speaker 1: hockey team. Donald.
- 1:30:01Speaker 3: Yeah, well, and I think the other part you talked
- 1:30:03Speaker 3: to here is because I was reading it again, just
- 1:30:05Speaker 3: trying to identify some of the different highlights to connect here.
- 1:30:09Speaker 3: Very patriotic as well, bringing in the themes of our
- 1:30:13Speaker 3: two hundred and fiftieth birthday. Very you know, how do
- 1:30:17Speaker 3: you not get excited? You know, when you talk about
- 1:30:19Speaker 3: the spirit of seventeen seventy six Thomas Jefferson, our founding fathers,
- 1:30:23Speaker 3: the things that we've accomplished in this you know, in
- 1:30:25Speaker 3: the grand scheme of time, right in this short window
- 1:30:27Speaker 3: of ten or fifty years that this country has existed,
- 1:30:29Speaker 3: it's greatness, it's excellence. You got to get excited about
- 1:30:34Speaker 3: that kind of stuff. And that's you know, beyond the politics,
- 1:30:38Speaker 3: even beyond the policy, right, those foundational ideals that made this,
- 1:30:42Speaker 3: that set this country on a trajectory, that have enabled
- 1:30:47Speaker 3: the prosperity unknown before it to exist here in this country.
- 1:30:51Speaker 3: It's just phenomenal. It's great to be able to be
- 1:30:53Speaker 3: a part of it and fight for it, and proud
- 1:30:56Speaker 3: to be part of a team, an organization that gets
- 1:30:58Speaker 3: to go out there and do that every day.
- 1:31:00Speaker 1: Scellent point. I agree with you completely. Everyone should have
- 1:31:02Speaker 1: felt a swell of American pride. But maybe therein lies
- 1:31:05Speaker 1: the rub. I think the Democrats are embarrassed by our
- 1:31:10Speaker 1: outstanding greatness. They're embarrassed by our unbelievably unbelievable success. It
- 1:31:15Speaker 1: literally bursts the balloon of their socialist narrative because when
- 1:31:20Speaker 1: you compare American greatness under largely capitalism, not pure capitalism, mind,
- 1:31:24Speaker 1: you all acknowledge that it obviously has been demonstrably far
- 1:31:28Speaker 1: more successful than any other country on the planet. And
- 1:31:31Speaker 1: that well just destroys the narrative that socialism is somehow
- 1:31:34Speaker 1: better out of him.
- 1:31:36Speaker 3: Well, and then why, like we see, why are all
- 1:31:38Speaker 3: of these folks trying to get into this country? Right? Yeah,
- 1:31:42Speaker 3: if it was so bad here, why are folks literally
- 1:31:45Speaker 3: risking their lives right to get into this country. It's
- 1:31:50Speaker 3: because there's excellence here, there's opportunity. The American dream is alive.
- 1:31:53Speaker 3: And well, it's so many Americans right now do feel
- 1:31:57Speaker 3: like it is unachievable, right when they look at their
- 1:32:00Speaker 3: utility bills, they look at their health insurance premiums, they
- 1:32:03Speaker 3: look at you know, the cost of groceries or just
- 1:32:05Speaker 3: living their lives. Right, there's work to be done. But
- 1:32:10Speaker 3: the policies right that we're outlined just to bring it
- 1:32:12Speaker 3: back to the policy, right, those are the ways that
- 1:32:15Speaker 3: we can get this stuff done. We can make energy
- 1:32:17Speaker 3: more affordable by building, by generating more energy, love the
- 1:32:20Speaker 3: nuclear right, Brian.
- 1:32:21Speaker 9: Oh.
- 1:32:21Speaker 3: We can make health care more affordable by empowering, because
- 1:32:24Speaker 3: we're giving healthcare more affordable by empowering consumers, not health
- 1:32:28Speaker 3: insurance corporations with the tools they need to be able
- 1:32:31Speaker 3: to go and get health care. And we can make
- 1:32:33Speaker 3: housing more affordable if we remove the regulations and red
- 1:32:36Speaker 3: tape that exist at every layer, from our townships and
- 1:32:38Speaker 3: little villages all the way up to federal government policies.
- 1:32:44Speaker 3: We know what works. We just need you know, in
- 1:32:47Speaker 3: the president is cast division. We need Congress to get
- 1:32:50Speaker 3: to work to get it done. You know, midterm elections
- 1:32:52Speaker 3: are going to be the reason why they don't want
- 1:32:54Speaker 3: to do anything right. Nobody wants to rock the boat
- 1:32:56Speaker 3: coming up on an election. But I think we need
- 1:32:59Speaker 3: to verse that thinking is absolutely the reason we need
- 1:33:03Speaker 3: to do these things, because if we don't, the other side,
- 1:33:06Speaker 3: the path that advocates for socialism and top down economic
- 1:33:10Speaker 3: policies out of Washington, DC, are going to say give
- 1:33:13Speaker 3: us back to the power. We will. We will hear,
- 1:33:15Speaker 3: we hear your cries, and we have the solutions if
- 1:33:17Speaker 3: you just give us a little bit more of your
- 1:33:19Speaker 3: of your freedom and liberty.
- 1:33:21Speaker 1: Americans for Prosperity Donovan and he always love having you

- 1:33:59Speaker 1: going to join them at eight forty five. Love Cheryl
- 1:34:01Speaker 1: Pop and what she does for the American veterans, and
- 1:34:03Speaker 1: I certainly love honor flight as a concept. So if
- 1:34:06Speaker 1: you can't make it due to disability or some other reason,
- 1:34:09Speaker 1: then there's an honor flight for you. It's March eighth.
- 1:34:11Speaker 1: Cheryl Pop on that and the meantime. Welcome back to
- 1:34:13Speaker 1: the fifty five Casey Morning Show. The man responsible for
- 1:34:16Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Exchange dot Com, Adam Kahler, It's great having
- 1:34:20Speaker 1: you on the program. Good welcome back.
- 1:34:22Speaker 6: Hey, Brian, thanks a lot. Normally I'm in there, you know,
- 1:34:25Speaker 6: I know, I know.
- 1:34:26Speaker 1: Actually I kind of expell I was getting ready to
- 1:34:27Speaker 1: ask Joe about you. Is Adam coming to the studio,
- 1:34:30Speaker 1: But he usually writes in studio when you are coming in,
- 1:34:33Speaker 1: so I knew the answer to that question. So sorry
- 1:34:34Speaker 1: you're not here, but we're still of course able to talk.
- 1:34:37Speaker 1: And how's the Cincinni Exchange going. I'll recommend my listeners
- 1:34:39Speaker 1: bookmark the site again, the Cincinnati Exchange dot com. It's
- 1:34:42Speaker 1: a whole bunch of news. It really isn't exclusively confined
- 1:34:46Speaker 1: to local news though you got to It's a mixed
- 1:34:48Speaker 1: bag of stuff and it's really a great sight, Adam.
- 1:34:50Speaker 1: So how's it working out.
- 1:34:52Speaker 6: Oh, it's going really good. Last month we actually saw
- 1:34:56Speaker 6: about one hundred and twenty percent.
- 1:34:58Speaker 3: Growth in readership. Oh good.
- 1:35:01Speaker 6: So if we can continue that trend, we'll be getting
- 1:35:04Speaker 6: up there with with some of the more known local
- 1:35:09Speaker 6: local news stations, and that would be really, really, really
- 1:35:12Speaker 6: cool to be able to spread, you know, some more
- 1:35:15Speaker 6: truthful news out into the world of Cincinnati and report
- 1:35:18Speaker 6: on things maybe some of these other local media are
- 1:35:22Speaker 6: not reporting on and in the way maybe you're your
- 1:35:25Speaker 6: listeners would expect, yeah.
- 1:35:28Speaker 1: From a well at least a neutral perspective, but maybe
- 1:35:33Speaker 1: something with a little more conservatives, dare I say a
- 1:35:34Speaker 1: libertarian perspective and reporting Signal ninety nine is going to
- 1:35:38Speaker 1: be on the Porting on the program tomorrow. She has
- 1:35:39Speaker 1: gained local fame in prominence because she does report on
- 1:35:43Speaker 1: a lot of the things that nobody's reporting on local news.
- 1:35:45Speaker 1: And isn't it a sad commentary when you have to
- 1:35:47Speaker 1: get all the all the crazy shenanigans revealed by someone
- 1:35:50Speaker 1: who's not even part of the formal traditional media, Adam,
- 1:35:53Speaker 1: that's kind of where you're going. Todd Zinzer does the
- 1:35:56Speaker 1: same thing our Citizen Watch job. He crunches numbers former
- 1:35:58Speaker 1: inspector general, He looks and gets the math, and he
- 1:36:01Speaker 1: gets the documents and he provides them to us. He
- 1:36:04Speaker 1: regularly attends Cincinnati council meetings, kind of like a reporter
- 1:36:07Speaker 1: should do. Isn't it odd that we just we don't
- 1:36:09Speaker 1: have a whole lot of reporters, you know, going in
- 1:36:12Speaker 1: and asking our elected officials questions, asking the mayor and
- 1:36:15Speaker 1: holding the mayor's feet to the fire to get answers
- 1:36:17Speaker 1: to the questions. We all have. I mean, you know,
- 1:36:20Speaker 1: I understand the Internet has eroded local reporting. It's sad,
- 1:36:24Speaker 1: it's a fact, but it still can be done. And
- 1:36:27Speaker 1: you're part of the solution, Adam with the Cincinnati Exchange.
- 1:36:31Speaker 6: Yeah, that's one hundred percent true. And of those both
- 1:36:34Speaker 6: of those people write for us. So we have a
- 1:36:36Speaker 6: we have a group of local people who care about
- 1:36:39Speaker 6: the city. And I think one of the big problems
- 1:36:41Speaker 6: is is we just feel beat down. I mean, I'm
- 1:36:45Speaker 6: sure your listeners, you know.
- 1:36:46Speaker 5: They they agree with this.
- 1:36:47Speaker 11: I mean, we live in a city.
- 1:36:48Speaker 6: Where, you know, we have a one progressive monopoly on
- 1:36:53Speaker 6: city council, the mayor's office, and on County Commission. Yeah,
- 1:36:57Speaker 6: and you've got you've got people people who you know,
- 1:37:02Speaker 6: in the in the suburbs, in the outskirts and and
- 1:37:05Speaker 6: even further out who are dependent, reliant on local news
- 1:37:10Speaker 6: coming out of downtown Cincinnati. And you have a lot
- 1:37:13Speaker 6: of activists working in some of these organizations. As a
- 1:37:17Speaker 6: matter of fact, only three and a half percent, this
- 1:37:19Speaker 6: is a Syracuse University study, only three and a half
- 1:37:21Speaker 6: percent of journalists consider themselves conservative. Yeah, so where they
- 1:37:28Speaker 6: all go, they felt uncomfortable in the newsroom, they've been
- 1:37:30Speaker 6: you know, mocked and kicked out of the newsroom by
- 1:37:34Speaker 6: these by these activists overwhelming them. So now we're reliant
- 1:37:38Speaker 6: on you know, Signal ninety nine, todds In's or Christina Holbrook,
- 1:37:43Speaker 6: some of these people that write for us, and you know,
- 1:37:46Speaker 6: get on Facebook and get on Twitter and report on
- 1:37:49Speaker 6: what they're seeing. But it's sad that we have to
- 1:37:52Speaker 6: do that because the agenda isn't to tell us the truth.
- 1:37:56Speaker 6: The agenda, as a matter of fact, to hide a
- 1:37:58Speaker 6: lot of the stuff from us. Otherwise we get upset.
- 1:38:01Speaker 6: And I mean you could see the trend. Conservatives are
- 1:38:04Speaker 6: leaving the city. They've been moving out to the suburbs
- 1:38:06Speaker 6: for decades, and now a lot of people are just
- 1:38:09Speaker 6: considering leaving the area altogether because of what's been going on.
- 1:38:12Speaker 6: I mean, look at the crime, Look at the situation
- 1:38:14Speaker 6: that's happened in downtown. I mean, it's getting worse and worse,
- 1:38:17Speaker 6: you know, and they keep claiming that crime in the
- 1:38:20Speaker 6: overall area is down, but crime in downtown Cincinnati, in
- 1:38:23Speaker 6: the West End are up. That's where the investment money
- 1:38:27Speaker 6: they've been telling people for years, invest downtown, invest on
- 1:38:30Speaker 6: Vine Street, you know, bring more people back to the
- 1:38:33Speaker 6: city Corps and then they do things like week on
- 1:38:35Speaker 6: crime policies, which then lead to what people leaving investment money,
- 1:38:40Speaker 6: leaving people going to different different places to invest their
- 1:38:44Speaker 6: money and to build things. And you know Cincinnati suffers.
- 1:38:47Speaker 1: For that, yes it does. But you know this has
- 1:38:49Speaker 1: happened on a national scale as well, and people are
- 1:38:51Speaker 1: running away from California to the regulatory environment at high
- 1:38:54Speaker 1: taxes and outrageous energy prices. Happened in New York, New Jersey.
- 1:38:57Speaker 1: They're fleeing, heading to places like Florida where the getting
- 1:39:00Speaker 1: ready to eliminate the property tax. Wait, can't we cut
- 1:39:05Speaker 1: and paste what Florida is doing and apply here in
- 1:39:07Speaker 1: Ohio anyway? But yeah, that's what there's the reality. And
- 1:39:11Speaker 1: going back to the part about the dissenting or the
- 1:39:14Speaker 1: idea that there should be a dissenting voice. You know,
- 1:39:16Speaker 1: even if we had Republicans dominating council, the idea of
- 1:39:21Speaker 1: someone who's bucking the trend, that is willing to point
- 1:39:24Speaker 1: out that whoa, whoa, whoa whoa. Have you looked at
- 1:39:25Speaker 1: it from this way? I don't think that's a good
- 1:39:27Speaker 1: idea because but their lockstep uniform, which is one of
- 1:39:30Speaker 1: the reasons they don't feel like they even have to
- 1:39:32Speaker 1: answer a question from a reporter. They've all got each
- 1:39:34Speaker 1: other's backs. It's a unified lockstep vision forward, and that
- 1:39:38Speaker 1: vision doesn't really mirror what a lot of us want.
- 1:39:41Speaker 1: Where is at least one voice, you know, one single
- 1:39:44Speaker 1: person a Liz Keating or maybe like an Rmer, Amy
- 1:39:46Speaker 1: Murray or somebody used to be on council to at
- 1:39:49Speaker 1: least bring up descent, which might force local reporters to
- 1:39:54Speaker 1: actually address it and ask about the differences between the opinions.
- 1:40:00Speaker 6: Yeah, and you saw it last night with the State
- 1:40:02Speaker 6: of the Union. You know, all the Democrats are sitting
- 1:40:05Speaker 6: down basic things like you know, do you support Americans
- 1:40:09Speaker 6: over illegal aliens? I know none of the Democrats would
- 1:40:12Speaker 6: stand up. It wouldn't even the same thing with city council,
- 1:40:16Speaker 6: except instead of there being half, you know, half Republicans
- 1:40:19Speaker 6: and half Democrats on city council, it's one Democrats. So,
- 1:40:23Speaker 6: like you said, they're lockstep with the party and they're
- 1:40:25Speaker 6: going to do with the party once and when there's
- 1:40:27Speaker 6: a monopoly of them, it's not good for our city.
- 1:40:31Speaker 5: And people just keep voting these.
- 1:40:32Speaker 1: Saying people in well and to your point on not
- 1:40:36Speaker 1: standing up for Americans and and and legal citizens and
- 1:40:41Speaker 1: the citizenry generally speaking, they wouldn't even stand up for
- 1:40:45Speaker 1: the hockey team, Adam. I was really quite frankly, the
- 1:40:50Speaker 1: more I thought about, the more disturbed I became about that,
- 1:40:53Speaker 1: because I wasn't watching it last night, so I had
- 1:40:55Speaker 1: to wake up to find out that when he just
- 1:40:57Speaker 1: spoke about the wonderful victory or America, that hockey team
- 1:41:02Speaker 1: didn't win for Republicans, it didn't rent for Democrats. It
- 1:41:04Speaker 1: just won for the country on a global stage. Is
- 1:41:09Speaker 1: what is there not to celebrate that about that? Why
- 1:41:12Speaker 1: wouldn't you stand in appreciation for that wonderful victory, nonpartisan,
- 1:41:17Speaker 1: non political victory. I don't know. I just say this
- 1:41:20Speaker 1: hate America, Adam. I mean, is that what it comes
- 1:41:22Speaker 1: down to? Is it because we're so successful and we
- 1:41:25Speaker 1: are the outlier economically and in terms of prosperity, that
- 1:41:28Speaker 1: we have funded literally everything around the planet. We've protected
- 1:41:32Speaker 1: Europe with our military and our American taxpayer. I was
- 1:41:35Speaker 1: paying for that. I mean, I just the amount of
- 1:41:38Speaker 1: money and love that has flown out of our country,
- 1:41:40Speaker 1: the number of things that we have achieved because of
- 1:41:42Speaker 1: American greatness. All of this should be celebrated. It's what
- 1:41:45Speaker 1: Donald Trump kind of concluded the back end of the speech,
- 1:41:47Speaker 1: with all this wonderful progress over two hundred and fifty years.
- 1:41:50Speaker 1: They're not proud of America at all. Adam, that's the
- 1:41:53Speaker 1: only thing I can read. Maybe because America proves their
- 1:41:57Speaker 1: political philosophy isn't utter failure.
- 1:42:01Speaker 6: Well, look at some of the headlines this morning. It's
- 1:42:04Speaker 6: all PDS related. And again that's going back to the
- 1:42:08Speaker 6: fact that these journalists are not conservatives. These journalists, they're
- 1:42:13Speaker 6: not even moderates. The vast majority of them are are
- 1:42:17Speaker 6: are progressive liberals. And I think I mentioned on your
- 1:42:21Speaker 6: show last time there's a working agreement between the Journalist
- 1:42:24Speaker 6: Union and the DSA. The Democrat Socialists of America and
- 1:42:28Speaker 6: the Democrat Socialists of America are some of those far
- 1:42:31Speaker 6: left type mumdani folks who you know, can't even clean
- 1:42:35Speaker 6: up their own streets. In the city of New York.
- 1:42:37Speaker 6: They've got people out there with shovels, paying them thirty
- 1:42:40Speaker 6: dollars an hour that aren't even shoveling. They're just going
- 1:42:42Speaker 6: in and saying they did work. And then they're collecting
- 1:42:45Speaker 6: a check. Yeah, so, I mean it's absolutely insane.
- 1:42:48Speaker 1: Better have a social security guard to do that in
- 1:42:50Speaker 1: New York City though, Adam, you know you need to
- 1:42:52Speaker 1: two pictures of yourself and a social security guard to
- 1:42:55Speaker 1: prove you're an American citizens and therefore lawfully allowed to work. Pause.
- 1:43:00Speaker 1: Bring Adam Keaylor back and again check him out online
- 1:43:02Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Exchange dot Com and Joe chimed in and
- 1:43:05Speaker 1: notably pointed out that you had the podcast from Todd
- 1:43:07Speaker 1: Zenzer Signal ninety nine and others also featured on your
- 1:43:11Speaker 1: on your Sininni Exchange website as well. So great one
- 1:43:14Speaker 1: stop shopping for things going on in our area with Adam.
- 1:43:17Speaker 1: Kaylor stick around. We're gonna do a little bit more
- 1:43:18Speaker 1: with Adam. Then we're gonna hear from Judge and Poulaitano
- 1:43:20Speaker 1: and Cheryl Pop in the last half of the hour.
- 1:43:22Speaker 1: I'll be right back. This is fifty Box Station eight
- 1:43:30Speaker 1: nineteen to fifty five KARCD talk station, Happy Wednesday, Adam
- 1:43:34Speaker 1: Keaylor on the phone man response before the Cincinnati Exchange
- 1:43:38Speaker 1: dot Com. Maybe remember he did run for office one point,
- 1:43:40Speaker 1: maybe we'll see him run for office again. But still
- 1:43:43Speaker 1: keeping tabs on what's going in the greater Cincinnati area
- 1:43:45Speaker 1: and facilitating the opportunity for us out here in the
- 1:43:47Speaker 1: world who we're paying attention to these things to also
- 1:43:49Speaker 1: do so. Just reach out to Adam through the Cincinnati Exchange.
- 1:43:52Speaker 1: Adam pivoting over to your thoughts and comments on the
- 1:43:55Speaker 1: State of the Union address, anything particular standout that you
- 1:43:58Speaker 1: want to comment on with regard to that, What I
- 1:44:00Speaker 1: thought was a really good speech last night.
- 1:44:04Speaker 6: Oh the speech was outstanding. It might have been one
- 1:44:06Speaker 6: of the best I've ever seen. And look at Trump's energy, right,
- 1:44:10Speaker 6: I mean, you know Democrats have been trying to say, oh,
- 1:44:12Speaker 6: Trump's he doesn't have it anymore, and the same stuff,
- 1:44:16Speaker 6: you know, the same arguments we had with Biden, you know,
- 1:44:18Speaker 6: falling up the stairs or whatever. But I mean Trump
- 1:44:21Speaker 6: looked energetic, He looked excited, he was smiling. It felt
- 1:44:26Speaker 6: like we were winning. It didn't look manufactured. You know,
- 1:44:30Speaker 6: all the numbers that he did he put out there,
- 1:44:32Speaker 6: you know you can fact check them. Those numbers are true.
- 1:44:35Speaker 6: Inflation's down under three percent, you know, closer to two
- 1:44:38Speaker 6: percent at this point. Mortgage rates are coming down. I
- 1:44:41Speaker 6: just saw, you know, we're getting ready to write under
- 1:44:44Speaker 6: six percent. We're getting ready to write an article about that.
- 1:44:47Speaker 6: I mean, every key measure that you need to happen
- 1:44:50Speaker 6: is starting to happen. His terriffs didn't raise inflation. They're
- 1:44:55Speaker 6: bringing jobs back, They're bringing investment money into this country
- 1:45:00Speaker 6: from places like Japan. You know, people believe around the world,
- 1:45:04Speaker 6: believe in America again. Europe is a failed continent at
- 1:45:07Speaker 6: this point without US, without US taxpayers subsidizing places like
- 1:45:13Speaker 6: Canada and the whole of Europe with our military. You know,
- 1:45:18Speaker 6: bye by free healthcare, bye by free universities. You know,
- 1:45:21Speaker 6: they're going to have to start, you know, paying their
- 1:45:23Speaker 6: own bills at some point instead of instead of you
- 1:45:25Speaker 6: and I and all your listeners, you know, paying all
- 1:45:28Speaker 6: this money to defend their countries. So they're going to
- 1:45:32Speaker 6: have to start straightening up. And that's one of the
- 1:45:34Speaker 6: things Trump's doing.
- 1:45:35Speaker 10: It.
- 1:45:35Speaker 6: You know, he gets called mean for it. Oh we're
- 1:45:38Speaker 6: you know, our are the global community hates us now,
- 1:45:41Speaker 6: you know, those are the narratives. But he's the only
- 1:45:44Speaker 6: president I can remember that's ever pushed back on any
- 1:45:48Speaker 6: of these policies.
- 1:45:49Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, and you know, going back to American greatness,
- 1:45:52Speaker 1: my comment about how unbelievably wealthy are compared to all
- 1:45:55Speaker 1: the rest of the countries in the world. I mean, historically,
- 1:45:57Speaker 1: even if there were no American great this, you know,
- 1:46:00Speaker 1: he summarized last night, there wouldn't be all these vast
- 1:46:03Speaker 1: sums of cash. We wouldn't have been able to act
- 1:46:05Speaker 1: as the police department for all of NATO since World
- 1:46:08Speaker 1: War Two. That's us, all the bases over there, all
- 1:46:11Speaker 1: of the military over there, we pay for that, We
- 1:46:13Speaker 1: own it. They don't have their own militaries necessarily, at
- 1:46:16Speaker 1: least in terms of numbers, very few troops and hardly
- 1:46:19Speaker 1: any military hardware. What point is it to belong to NATO?
- 1:46:22Speaker 1: We have mutual defense agreements and they can't help defend us, Adam.
- 1:46:27Speaker 6: That's right, that's right. And now we have it. Now
- 1:46:30Speaker 6: we have a healing trade deficit because of things like tariffs,
- 1:46:34Speaker 6: and it's waking up the global community that they need
- 1:46:37Speaker 6: to start taking care of themselves instead of expecting, you know,
- 1:46:40Speaker 6: America to act as their welfare state. Yeah, I mean,
- 1:46:44Speaker 6: it's it's absolutely insane what's been going on. And every
- 1:46:47Speaker 6: president prior to this has you know, either been complicit
- 1:46:50Speaker 6: in it or they've just been downright afraid to make
- 1:46:53Speaker 6: a political move of the way Trump does. And as
- 1:46:56Speaker 6: you guys can see, I mean as everybody can see.
- 1:46:58Speaker 6: You know, Trump does what necessary. He's not doing things
- 1:47:03Speaker 6: to necessarily be political. He's doing them because it's what's
- 1:47:07Speaker 6: right for the United States in my opinion, and i've
- 1:47:11Speaker 6: this is what people voted for, and this is what
- 1:47:13Speaker 6: we're getting. And we're getting. We're getting closed borders. You
- 1:47:16Speaker 6: heard it last night. You know, zero illegal entries into
- 1:47:20Speaker 6: the country. I mean, the borders tight now. I just
- 1:47:22Speaker 6: got back from California a couple of days ago. You know,
- 1:47:25Speaker 6: we were close to the beach. Border patrol was driving
- 1:47:28Speaker 6: up and down the beach the entire time at night,
- 1:47:31Speaker 6: lights on. You know, beach is closed. They're watching for
- 1:47:34Speaker 6: people coming in. You know, was that happening under Biden?
- 1:47:37Speaker 6: I don't know, but you know it's definitely happening under Trump.
- 1:47:41Speaker 1: Yes it is. And pivoting back to local stories, I
- 1:47:44Speaker 1: guess yesterday they took a vote on well preventing the
- 1:47:47Speaker 1: City of Cincinnati from sharing any information regarding a status
- 1:47:51Speaker 1: of residence immigration status here to protect our residents from
- 1:47:55Speaker 1: the threat of immigrations and customs enforcement surveillance that's the
- 1:47:58Speaker 1: name of the motion introduced by I guess Ryan James.
- 1:48:02Speaker 1: They don't want any information provided to ICE about citizens
- 1:48:05Speaker 1: retisents status, and we're gonna they're not going to collect
- 1:48:07Speaker 1: it anymore. I'm not quite sure that's what the residents
- 1:48:11Speaker 1: of the city of Cincinnati want. I don't think they
- 1:48:13Speaker 1: want criminals or child molesters, or rapists or murders living
- 1:48:16Speaker 1: in their neighborhood. Personally think that way, but I don't know.
- 1:48:19Speaker 1: You've got a loud, loud, loud, squeaky wheel in this
- 1:48:21Speaker 1: anti ICE situation going on in our country right now,
- 1:48:25Speaker 1: Adam twelve.
- 1:48:27Speaker 6: Once again, you get what you vote for, right, I mean,
- 1:48:29Speaker 6: this is what the citizens of Cincinnati voted for. I
- 1:48:32Speaker 6: think a lot of people are just low information voters.
- 1:48:35Speaker 7: Uh.
- 1:48:35Speaker 6: They more people probably need to read our paper and
- 1:48:37Speaker 6: watch yours and listen to your show, uh, maybe tuned
- 1:48:40Speaker 6: into the Brian Thomas podcast and uh, and learn what's
- 1:48:43Speaker 6: going on in the city, because you know, we've got
- 1:48:46Speaker 6: we've got some activists running our city right now, running
- 1:48:49Speaker 6: in our county, and you know what they want to
- 1:48:52Speaker 6: do is what they.
- 1:48:52Speaker 5: Want to do.
- 1:48:53Speaker 6: And the narrative that comes down from DC is what
- 1:48:56Speaker 6: they're gonna follow, and you see the results of that
- 1:48:59Speaker 6: in places like Minat Soda, right. I mean, these activists, democrats,
- 1:49:03Speaker 6: they want, they want people injured, they want because now
- 1:49:08Speaker 6: they've got a story. They've got their next January sixth
- 1:49:10Speaker 6: with these people that are throwing themselves in front of
- 1:49:13Speaker 6: law enforcement and getting injured or unfortunately, you know, worse
- 1:49:17Speaker 6: than that in some cases. So you know, these are
- 1:49:20Speaker 6: the stories that they're looking for, and they get they
- 1:49:22Speaker 6: don't work with ICE because it forces ICE instead of
- 1:49:26Speaker 6: just going to the prisons and picking these people up,
- 1:49:28Speaker 6: or going to the local jails and picking these people up,
- 1:49:31Speaker 6: they have to go into the neighborhoods, they have to
- 1:49:33Speaker 6: go knock on doors, and these activists end up following
- 1:49:37Speaker 6: them around the city. I saw an accident the other
- 1:49:39Speaker 6: day on the highway, some activists trying to follow ICE,
- 1:49:42Speaker 6: and these types of situations happen, and then they point
- 1:49:45Speaker 6: at Trump and say, isn't Trump a bad guy? Look
- 1:49:47Speaker 6: look what his ICE people are doing. He sent out
- 1:49:51Speaker 6: the Gestapo to arrest these people, when in fact, none
- 1:49:55Speaker 6: of this would be happening if Biden hadn't let eleven
- 1:49:58Speaker 6: million people into the country.
- 1:50:00Speaker 1: Adam Kaylor find him online again thus cincinnatiexchange dot com.
- 1:50:04Speaker 1: Great stuff, Adam. I appreciate what you're doing out there.
- 1:50:06Speaker 1: You got to welcome spot here in the fifty five
- 1:50:07Speaker 1: KRC Morning Show to talk about issues, and I'll look
- 1:50:10Speaker 1: forward to having you back on rele soon man next
- 1:50:11Speaker 1: time in studio.
- 1:50:12Speaker 4: Okay, brother Parks and the Yankees are off to a
- 1:50:15Speaker 4: pretty good start this spring training season. It's all because
- 1:50:19Speaker 4: of the hitting and pitching tips from our next guest. Now,
- 1:50:23Speaker 4: if he could just be so kind to National League teams, hint, hint,
- 1:50:27Speaker 4: but judge es next Chuck Ingram on fifty five KRS
- 1:50:30Speaker 4: the talk station.
- 1:50:33Speaker 1: Hey thirty if any five krcd talk station. He's brilliant.
- 1:50:38Speaker 1: He is Judgenna Paulton apparently a batting coach as well.
- 1:50:41Speaker 1: Welcome back, Judgenna Paul Town. I love having you on
- 1:50:43Speaker 1: the show, my friend.
- 1:50:44Speaker 10: Thank you, and thank you Chuck. You know I do
- 1:50:46Speaker 10: love baseball, and I'll tell you a very very brief story.
- 1:50:49Speaker 10: When I was in basic training Fort Knox, Kentucky, nineteen seventy,
- 1:50:54Speaker 10: I managed our platoons team and we made it all
- 1:50:58Speaker 10: the way to the finals. And I love every minute
- 1:51:00Speaker 10: of it except for the ninth inning of the last game.
- 1:51:06Speaker 10: I am a baseball fanatic, but the Yankees don't come
- 1:51:10Speaker 10: to me for tips.
- 1:51:11Speaker 1: That's great eran. I didn't know you're a ballplayer. Good
- 1:51:13Speaker 1: for you. I played little league baseball until I started swimming,
- 1:51:16Speaker 1: and then I was in the pool for what seemed
- 1:51:18Speaker 1: like literally decades of my childhood. I have bad reminders
- 1:51:23Speaker 1: of swimming by My.
- 1:51:24Speaker 10: Father, May he rest in peace, was a super jock
- 1:51:27Speaker 10: and made his three boys about athletic as athletic as
- 1:51:33Speaker 10: we could be. My two brothers better athletes than I.
- 1:51:36Speaker 1: Well, you know, I guess you came from a kind
- 1:51:37Speaker 1: of family. My dad was a jock when he was
- 1:51:39Speaker 1: a kid, any great baseball player, and I think I
- 1:51:42Speaker 1: disappointed him to no end because I didn't take the
- 1:51:45Speaker 1: baseball like he did, and I never took to golf
- 1:51:48Speaker 1: like he did. My dad loved the game of golf anyway,
- 1:51:52Speaker 1: my late father I love.
- 1:51:53Speaker 10: My dad played four days a week until he was
- 1:51:58Speaker 10: eighty two years old.
- 1:52:00Speaker 1: You know what, that sounds remarkably like my dad Because
- 1:52:02Speaker 1: my dad hosted the morning show for forty well, he
- 1:52:05Speaker 1: was on radio for about forty six or forty eight years.
- 1:52:08Speaker 1: In the last thirty years was the morning show here
- 1:52:10Speaker 1: in Cincinnati off the radio at nine like I am,
- 1:52:14Speaker 1: and then straight to the golf course almost every single
- 1:52:17Speaker 1: day of the week, with the exception of Mondays when
- 1:52:19Speaker 1: the club was closed. So there you have it. He
- 1:52:22Speaker 1: and his buddy, a pathologist whose patients weren't waiting for
- 1:52:26Speaker 1: him in a lobby, if you know what I mean,
- 1:52:27Speaker 1: used to have like it was who paid the most
- 1:52:29Speaker 1: games of golf at the club every year, and it
- 1:52:31Speaker 1: was either the pathologist or my dad. So benefits of
- 1:52:34Speaker 1: the morning show. It sucks having to go to bed early.
- 1:52:37Speaker 1: Pivoting over real quick? Here can I get a comment
- 1:52:41Speaker 1: or two from me on Taro's the Supreme Court and
- 1:52:43Speaker 1: using the major Questions document a doctrine which was a
- 1:52:46Speaker 1: major victor. I believe it was US versus or West
- 1:52:48Speaker 1: Virginia versus EPA where we got that brilliant decision. You know,
- 1:52:52Speaker 1: if it wasn't specifically addressed by Congress, if it's not
- 1:52:55Speaker 1: specifically identified in the law, then and if it evolved
- 1:52:59Speaker 1: something as big as consequential as taxes or tariffs, no
- 1:53:02Speaker 1: reference to it means they intentionally left it out. It
- 1:53:05Speaker 1: is a major question that would have been had they
- 1:53:08Speaker 1: intended to be in the law. It isn't there ergo,
- 1:53:11Speaker 1: the tariffs are beyond the scope of the presidency. That's
- 1:53:14Speaker 1: how I understand the Supreme Court's reading, although the dissent
- 1:53:17Speaker 1: kind of wanted to create a carve out to the
- 1:53:19Speaker 1: Major Questions doctrine.
- 1:53:21Speaker 10: Well, I agree with the outcome, and I agree that
- 1:53:25Speaker 10: you have as always accurately articulated the major question doctrine.
- 1:53:30Speaker 10: If the Congress is going to authorize the President to
- 1:53:34Speaker 10: do something which is ordinarily in Congress's barely what they
- 1:53:39Speaker 10: may do, so they must do so.
- 1:53:41Speaker 3: With precision and certainty.
- 1:53:44Speaker 10: However, I would while I would have agreed with the outcome,
- 1:53:47Speaker 10: I would have written a different opinion. I would have argued,
- 1:53:51Speaker 10: consistent with a long line of Supreme Court cases, that
- 1:53:55Speaker 10: there are areas of congressional authority which it cannot convey
- 1:54:00Speaker 10: away to the president, and those are its core responsibilities
- 1:54:05Speaker 10: under the Constitution, and none is more core than raising
- 1:54:09Speaker 10: and setting taxes. Why do I say that, if you
- 1:54:12Speaker 10: go to Article one, Section eight, paragraph one, the very
- 1:54:16Speaker 10: first power given to Congress is to raise and set taxes.
- 1:54:22Speaker 10: It cannot be delegated away period.
- 1:54:25Speaker 1: I'm glad you brought that part up, because that takes
- 1:54:27Speaker 1: me all the way back to I believe it was
- 1:54:29Speaker 1: the Reagan era where they gave him the line item veto,
- 1:54:31Speaker 1: and the Supreme Court found that to be unconstitutional delegation
- 1:54:34Speaker 1: of the authority in their power.
- 1:54:36Speaker 3: Correct.
- 1:54:36Speaker 10: I wish the president had that authority. We might not
- 1:54:40Speaker 10: have a thirty eight trillion in debt today.
- 1:54:42Speaker 3: But it's not in the constitution.
- 1:54:44Speaker 1: He doesn't have it.
- 1:54:45Speaker 10: The Congress can no more give the president the power
- 1:54:48Speaker 10: to tax than he could give the Chief Justice the
- 1:54:52Speaker 10: power to be Commander in chief of the armed forces.
- 1:54:54Speaker 10: You just can't be trading powers like that. It violates
- 1:54:58Speaker 10: the Constitution. It reduces the power of the sending branch
- 1:55:04Speaker 10: beyond and increases the power of the receiving branch beyond
- 1:55:09Speaker 10: what the Framers wanted. And it's detriment to personal freedom.
- 1:55:14Speaker 10: If the President gets mad at some foreign entity because
- 1:55:18Speaker 10: they ran and ad on their television stations that he
- 1:55:22Speaker 10: didn't like Ontario, Canada, he can punish them by taxing Americans.
- 1:55:28Speaker 10: That is so far afield from the Constitution it's barely
- 1:55:31Speaker 10: merits a serious conversation. Well, I'm happy, I'm happy with
- 1:55:35Speaker 10: the outcome, but I am not happy with the reasoning
- 1:55:39Speaker 10: that God us there in terms of justice. The Kavanaugh's dissent,
- 1:55:43Speaker 10: he proves yet again why he doesn't belong on the
- 1:55:46Speaker 10: Supreme Court.
- 1:55:47Speaker 1: Wow, and then allows me to pivot over. Could Congress
- 1:55:50Speaker 1: delegate the power to declare war? Something I alluded to
- 1:55:54Speaker 1: in my comment to you back with the email. I
- 1:55:57Speaker 1: keep hearing and we all know we have massive build
- 1:55:59Speaker 1: ups of military very nearly near Iran, multiple carrier groups,
- 1:56:02Speaker 1: We've got all kinds of hardware over the Middle East. Generally,
- 1:56:05Speaker 1: Donald Trump is threatening war. It is just a direct statement.
- 1:56:09Speaker 1: It is the stick that he's holding in order to
- 1:56:11Speaker 1: negotiate foreign policy. But he doesn't have the power to
- 1:56:14Speaker 1: declare war. If Congress gave him authorization, that will be
- 1:56:20Speaker 1: one thing. It require congressional action. But can Congress And
- 1:56:23Speaker 1: their silence seems almost like an abdication of their soul responsibility.
- 1:56:29Speaker 1: I haven't heard even Democrats screaming about he doesn't have
- 1:56:32Speaker 1: the ability to launch a missile on this to start
- 1:56:35Speaker 1: a war. So could they delegate that?
- 1:56:38Speaker 10: He claimed?
- 1:56:38Speaker 9: He claimed?
- 1:56:39Speaker 10: The President claimed what I call the kidnapping of President
- 1:56:44Speaker 10: Maduro of Venezuela was a law enforcement function because Maduro
- 1:56:50Speaker 10: had been indicted and was escaping justice a real stretch,
- 1:56:54Speaker 10: and for that reason he didn't need congressional authority. He
- 1:56:57Speaker 10: can't claim that now. He has between one third and
- 1:57:01Speaker 10: one half of the United States Navy in two spots
- 1:57:07Speaker 10: outside of Iran, to the south of it and to
- 1:57:12Speaker 10: the west of it. If he invades Iran, he will
- 1:57:16Speaker 10: absolutely need congressional authorization. You're right, Congress is silent. Congress
- 1:57:22Speaker 10: is not living up to its obligations. Another silly example.
- 1:57:26Speaker 10: I was interviewing the late great Harlem Congressman Charlie Wrangle.
- 1:57:30Speaker 1: He used to talk about this.
- 1:57:31Speaker 3: He was a real character.
- 1:57:32Speaker 10: He was on my show on Fox News when we
- 1:57:35Speaker 10: learned in the middle of the show that President Obama
- 1:57:39Speaker 10: had bombed Libya. I looked at Congressman Wrangle and I said,
- 1:57:44Speaker 10: was there a declaration of war that I missed? And
- 1:57:46Speaker 10: I would imitate his voice it was so scratchy.
- 1:57:49Speaker 9: He said, Oh, no, we're happy to look the other way.
- 1:57:54Speaker 10: If the bombing succeeds, we'll take credit. If it doesn't succeed,
- 1:57:59Speaker 10: we'll blame the president. That's the attitude of members of Congress,
- 1:58:04Speaker 10: and that attitude is a rejection of their responsibilities under
- 1:58:08Speaker 10: the Constitution.
- 1:58:10Speaker 1: Amen, That's exactly what I was hoping you'd be very
- 1:58:13Speaker 1: strong on. And I'm glad you brought up that as
- 1:58:15Speaker 1: an illustration because that seems to be the current point
- 1:58:17Speaker 1: with the Democrats. We'll let him get in trouble. If
- 1:58:19Speaker 1: it's trouble, we're going to make fun of him, We're
- 1:58:21Speaker 1: going to accuse him, we're going to use it to
- 1:58:22Speaker 1: our advantage in the elections, whatever. But if it's successful,
- 1:58:26Speaker 1: well they'll have maybe they'll have to give him credit
- 1:58:28Speaker 1: for it. If it's successful, your honor. I can't see
- 1:58:30Speaker 1: that happening any day.
- 1:58:31Speaker 10: I don't see that happening.
- 1:58:33Speaker 9: But what would success be?
- 1:58:34Speaker 10: What right do we have to change the regime of
- 1:58:38Speaker 10: another country just because Benjamin Netsanna who wants us to
- 1:58:41Speaker 10: do it. They haven't had nuclear weapons there since two
- 1:58:44Speaker 10: thousand and three. If you don't believe me, would you
- 1:58:47Speaker 10: believe Telsea Gabbard because she testified to that under oath
- 1:58:51Speaker 10: a year ago.
- 1:58:53Speaker 1: To Gendal Paul, title I Love our conversations gets the
- 1:58:56Speaker 1: juices of intellect flowing anyway, and quite often flies in
- 1:58:59Speaker 1: the face of what some listeners want to hear, but
- 1:59:01Speaker 1: that's okay. That's why we have you on to make
- 1:59:03Speaker 1: those intellectual juices flow and make you think about it
- 1:59:06Speaker 1: from a constitutional perspective anyway. We have you to rely
- 1:59:08Speaker 1: on for that man who still respects the Constitution and
- 1:59:11Speaker 1: explains it every week here on the fifty five Carse
- 1:59:13Speaker 1: Morning Show. Speaking of speaking with who's on your program
- 1:59:15Speaker 1: today Judging Freedom, Judge in Apolitano.
- 1:59:19Speaker 10: I have Jeff Sachs later today, Professor Sachs, and my
- 1:59:23Speaker 10: two colonels, Colonel Wilkerson and Larry Wilkerson and Doug McGregor tomorrow.
- 1:59:29Speaker 10: It's a very very dramatic time because we don't know
- 1:59:34Speaker 10: how close the president is to pulling the trigger. I
- 1:59:37Speaker 10: think he's painted himself into a corner. The government is
- 1:59:40Speaker 10: spending billions a day supporting all those enaval all that
- 1:59:46Speaker 10: naval apparatus and people there. If he doesn't use it,
- 1:59:50Speaker 10: he's going to be humiliated. If he does use it
- 1:59:52Speaker 10: and he doesn't achieve his goal.
- 1:59:53Speaker 3: He's going to be humiliated. He's boxed himself into a corner.
- 1:59:56Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with you on that one. Love it
- 1:59:59Speaker 1: or hate it, it's where we are right now, and
- 2:00:01Speaker 1: it's frightening Judge Napolitano every week on Judging Freedom. Find
- 2:00:04Speaker 1: his podcast wherever you get your podcasts and tune in
- 2:00:06Speaker 1: every Wednesday at a thirty here in the fifty five

- 2:00:12Speaker 1: I love Honor Flight Tries, Stay low, what they're doing
- 2:00:14Speaker 1: for the American veteran. I have had the blessing twice
- 2:00:17Speaker 1: in my life to be a guardian on an Honor Flight.
- 2:00:19Speaker 1: What an amazing, amazing thing that is. And someone who
- 2:00:23Speaker 1: keeps this energy going for Honor Flight Tries. Date Cheryl
- 2:00:26Speaker 1: Pop Welcome back to the fifty five Krssey Morning. We
- 2:00:28Speaker 1: heard from Mike earlier Cribbage Mike, and he's still actively
- 2:00:31Speaker 1: involved in Honor Flight, and I was giving you praise
- 2:00:33Speaker 1: this morning for all the work you're doing, and I
- 2:00:35Speaker 1: want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Well,
- 2:00:37Speaker 1: I guess I'll be happening away of the veterans out there,
- 2:00:39Speaker 1: but you're just doing a great job for Honor Flight.
- 2:00:42Speaker 1: Got one coming up, don't we, Cheryl?
- 2:00:44Speaker 2: We sure do.
- 2:00:45Speaker 12: Thanks to Mike and all of our team. We're really
- 2:00:48Speaker 12: rolling along here. We've had for the last couple of
- 2:00:51Speaker 12: years what we call our flight Less Honor flight, which
- 2:00:54Speaker 12: is the veterans that are not capable of going on
- 2:00:57Speaker 12: an eighteen hour day between the bus and the air plane,
- 2:01:00Speaker 12: you know, being away from home, so any kind of
- 2:01:02Speaker 12: physical limitation, or maybe they're afraid to fly, that's simple.
- 2:01:07Speaker 12: We have our flightless on our flight and it's may
- 2:01:09Speaker 12: A or march As at the Innerson Community Center, which
- 2:01:14Speaker 12: they have been so generous to let us use that day.
- 2:01:18Speaker 12: But it'll be everything like we can put together for
- 2:01:20Speaker 12: a flight. Well, bagpipers and the opening national anthem sung
- 2:01:24Speaker 12: live by a local high school student. That's fabulous. We
- 2:01:27Speaker 12: have a movie that we produce. There's a photo booth, well,
- 2:01:30Speaker 12: we have snacks even brought to the veterans by flight attendants.
- 2:01:34Speaker 12: We have a coin ceremony and a flag ceremony, a
- 2:01:37Speaker 12: group shot, you know, a group photo shot, and just
- 2:01:40Speaker 12: everything we can squeeze into a two and a half
- 2:01:42Speaker 12: hour that makes it seem like they're really on the flight.
- 2:01:45Speaker 12: And then of course the welcome home rally, which is
- 2:01:47Speaker 12: our biggest thing all the time on our regular flights.
- 2:01:50Speaker 12: We've got a really nice one playing for them right
- 2:01:52Speaker 12: after the.
- 2:01:53Speaker 1: All of this goes on, well, I'm so glad to
- 2:01:55Speaker 1: hear that because you know, in many ways, I'm not
- 2:01:58Speaker 1: going to say that's the highlight of it after such
- 2:02:00Speaker 1: a long day, and it is a long day, especially
- 2:02:03Speaker 1: for those senior veterans. You know, we're getting all around DC,
- 2:02:06Speaker 1: the travel back and forth. You know you're pretty exhausted
- 2:02:09Speaker 1: by the time you get off the airplane. But man,
- 2:02:11Speaker 1: you just come alive with a burst of energy and adrenaline.
- 2:02:15Speaker 1: And yes, the emotional outbreak you're gonna definitely have when
- 2:02:18Speaker 1: you see one of these these welcome home ceremonies, but
- 2:02:21Speaker 1: that you're going to try to recreate that for this
- 2:02:22Speaker 1: Flightless Honor flight. I sure hope it's it's even close
- 2:02:26Speaker 1: to what you see at CVG because it's such a
- 2:02:28Speaker 1: great moment in time.
- 2:02:29Speaker 12: Well, we have some high school students coming over and
- 2:02:32Speaker 12: now just so many you know, this little choir coming
- 2:02:35Speaker 12: and we're gonna have music. And you know how when
- 2:02:37Speaker 12: your little kids and your mom says you got a
- 2:02:39Speaker 12: second wind, Well they'll get a second win when they
- 2:02:42Speaker 12: see this. And it's it's all planned out by our
- 2:02:45Speaker 12: our Flightless staff, and they've been working on this for weeks,
- 2:02:49Speaker 12: down to every list of detail so we even have
- 2:02:51Speaker 12: boarding passes for the guys, everything that will make them
- 2:02:54Speaker 12: feel like they're on a flight, but they're not leaving Cincinnati.
- 2:02:57Speaker 12: They're being dropped off maybe by their retime ironman home
- 2:03:00Speaker 12: or buy a family member. And then we have so
- 2:03:02Speaker 12: much room there at the Anderson Center that we can
- 2:03:05Speaker 12: really accommodate a lot of people, So it should be
- 2:03:07Speaker 12: fabulous for the veterans.
- 2:03:08Speaker 1: Is there a limit to the number that are spots available?
- 2:03:11Speaker 1: Clearly on an airplane there's a cutoff, But how about
- 2:03:13Speaker 1: the flightless onner flight?
- 2:03:15Speaker 12: Well, there is, but I didn't tell you that. We
- 2:03:19Speaker 12: have plenty of room and we also have spots available,
- 2:03:22Speaker 12: so the only thing you have to do is not
- 2:03:24Speaker 12: just show up. We'd like to know how many, right,
- 2:03:26Speaker 12: So if you go onto our website to the very
- 2:03:28Speaker 12: front page of our website on our flight tri state
- 2:03:31Speaker 12: dot org, and there's a flightless application there. So if
- 2:03:35Speaker 12: you would just fill that out quickly and send it
- 2:03:37Speaker 12: over to Kirol clack and Bush, who's our chairman, she'll
- 2:03:40Speaker 12: get everything set up for your name tag, your T shirt,
- 2:03:42Speaker 12: everything you'll need. So we just need to know how
- 2:03:44Speaker 12: many are coming. But we really do have space left Yeah.
- 2:03:47Speaker 1: That's wonderful. I'm glad to hear it. But it's open
- 2:03:49Speaker 1: to I see some eligibility information your veterans age sixty
- 2:03:52Speaker 1: five and older, and of course, Honor Flight is committed
- 2:03:54Speaker 1: to going with the traditional flights. The oldest people get
- 2:03:58Speaker 1: to go first for obvious reasons, but sixty five and older,
- 2:04:01Speaker 1: those who serve stateside or overseas during wartime or peacetime,
- 2:04:05Speaker 1: that will be everybody. Veterans unable to participate in the
- 2:04:08Speaker 1: traditional honor flight due to medical or logistical reasons. So
- 2:04:10Speaker 1: there's your cutoffs right there. It seems like it's well,
- 2:04:13Speaker 1: if there's no number cut off, then there's your eligibility
- 2:04:16Speaker 1: requires click out click on the downloaded application form.
- 2:04:20Speaker 12: Yeah, it's pretty much wide open. We have so many
- 2:04:23Speaker 12: veterans that have so much difficulty going on these flights.
- 2:04:25Speaker 12: I mean we always say you go up and down
- 2:04:27Speaker 12: steps six steps fourteen times. That's pretty overwhelming. Yeah, So
- 2:04:32Speaker 12: if you're in any kind of condition where you can't
- 2:04:34Speaker 12: do anything like that, come on out and enjoy your day.
- 2:04:36Speaker 12: We've got everything planned for you and it'll be a
- 2:04:39Speaker 12: really nice substitution for a great big flight. And flightless
- 2:04:43Speaker 12: is a term that we've been using for gosh about
- 2:04:45Speaker 12: eight years and it's they do appreciate it, and especially
- 2:04:49Speaker 12: to family members who know that they're not able to
- 2:04:52Speaker 12: go on this long flight, so Flightless Honor Flight March
- 2:04:55Speaker 12: eighth at the Anderson Community Center.
- 2:04:57Speaker 1: Help us celebrate. You sign up Arch eight.
- 2:05:02Speaker 12: And if you want to come out for the welcome home,
- 2:05:04Speaker 12: it'll be on the lower level. There's parking in the
- 2:05:06Speaker 12: building right behind the center and it'll be starting about
- 2:05:10Speaker 12: three fifteen.
- 2:05:11Speaker 1: A fantastic well we can all help out with the
- 2:05:13Speaker 1: welcome home ceremony. Chryl pop got
