  Speaker 3: President says, going to be a couple of more weeks
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: and we'll be done. In Iran. Iran is apparently negotiating
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: through the UN for more talks. Perhaps again in Pakistan.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: Maybe they didn't realize we'd leave, you know, they figured, well,
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: maybe they'll come back tomorrow. What else is jd Vance doing.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: Jd Vance is out there saying, you know, we just
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: have to understand that this isn't going to be fixed
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: in a couple of days. Even though President Trump said
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: this will be fixed in a couple of days, the
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: blockade continues. Saudi's are calling on the president easop Disney's
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: laying off thousands of people. Seven eleven, which used to be,
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: you know, almost a synonym for convenience store. You didn't say, hey,
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: are you going to the convenience store? You said you're
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: going to seven eleven. And they're closing stores all over
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: the place. Just proof again that if you let a
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: market work, When you let a market work, there is
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: creative destruction and new guys come along, and those opportunities
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: should be there. If you don't have a crony economy. Fortunately,
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: we have too much of that. So, as we mentioned
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: US President, as we kick into our first things, Donald
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: Trump said the war with Iran was very close to over.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: In clips of an interview sent to air Today. Diplomats
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: worked through back channels Tuesday to arrange a new round
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: of talks between the United States and Iran. President Trump
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: said that could happen over the next two days. United
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres concurred, saying it's highly probable
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: the talks will be this week. US Central Command says
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: it has achieved maritime superiority and that the blockade of
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: Iranian ports has been fully implemented. Lebanon and Israel sat
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: down for direct diplomatic talks for the first time in
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: decades yesterday in Washington, following more than a month of
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: bombardments between Israel and the ranbacked Hezbola militant group. Federal
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: judge must end his intrusive contempt investigation into the Trump administration,
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: according to a majority opinion of a three judge panel
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: of the US Court of Appeals in the District of
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: Columbia Circuit, Chief Judge James Boseburg abused his discretion in
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: forging ahead with criminal contempt proceedings over the deportation flights.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: Walt Disney Company said it's beginning to enact layoffs that
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: will equal about a thousand job cuts across the Burbank,
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: California based company says its traditional television businesses, including ESPN,
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: its movie studio.
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: And.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: Other parts of its technology company will also be affected,
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: as well as their marketing division. Trump administration is intensifying
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: efforts to identify illegal aliens. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessen said
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: in an exclusive interview with Semaphore he's pushing for regulations
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: that would require banks to collect customers citizenship information. House
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: Democrats Tuesday introduced legislation to create commissions that would evaluate
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: whether President Trump or any president could be removed from
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: office under a reworking of the twenty fifth Amendment. This
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: would require rewriting the twenty fifth Amendment and that raises
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: a high bar, but they want a commission to look
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: into that. Meanwhile, in Maryland, Democrats stuck their hands in
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: their pockets and allowed a bill to redistrict the state
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: to favor Democrats more thoroughly die in committee. As the
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: General Assembly session came to an end yesterday, and those
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: are just some of our first things this morning.
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: Hi, this is Bud Foster, co host of Foster and
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: Friends and former Virginia Tech football coach. When I brought
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: the fame lunch fail to our team, it symbolized teamwork.
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: The word win stood for what's important. Now, the Lunch

  Speaker 6: For veterans concerned about their alcohol or drug use, seeking
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: help can be the first step toward recovery. Doctor Joseph Liberto,

  Speaker 8: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
• 8:08
  Speaker 8: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
• 8:13
  Speaker 8: am Doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
• 8:19
  Speaker 8: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
• 8:23
  Speaker 8: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
• 8:27
  Speaker 8: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
• 8:32
  Speaker 8: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and
• 8:36
  Speaker 8: inflammation has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can
• 8:42
  Speaker 8: prevent cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer,
• 8:46
  Speaker 8: and in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects
• 8:51
  Speaker 8: our healthy cells even from radiation. Total Wellness dot com

  Speaker 10: Hid Jack Hannah and It's always a boy growing up
• 10:02
  Speaker 10: on a farm in Tennessee. I've been fascinated with animals.
• 10:05
  Speaker 10: I'm not only in all of their beauty and kindness,
• 10:07
  Speaker 10: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
• 10:09
  Speaker 10: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes

  Speaker 10: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
• 10:15
  Speaker 10: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
• 10:18
  Speaker 10: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
• 10:21
  Speaker 10: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
• 10:23
  Speaker 10: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
• 10:26
  Speaker 10: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
• 10:30
  Speaker 10: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
• 10:33
  Speaker 10: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
• 10:36
  Speaker 10: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
• 10:38
  Speaker 10: from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
• 10:42
  Speaker 10: a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a
• 10:44
  Speaker 10: variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society and

• 11:01
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, he's starting with the woots.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: And now a speech.
• 11:07
  Speaker 11: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
• 11:11
  Speaker 11: heart and brain.
• 11:12
  Speaker 12: Who's with me?
• 11:13
  Speaker 11: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and my
• 11:16
  Speaker 11: brain is saying when it's time to go home. Somebody
• 11:19
  Speaker 11: call me a ride.
• 11:20
  Speaker 6: Love that guy, me too. Know your buzzed warning signs.
• 11:23
  Speaker 13: Call for a ride when it's time to go home.
• 11:25
  Speaker 6: Buzz driving is drunk driving.
• 11:29
  Speaker 14: Did you know that more than half our household energy
• 11:32
  Speaker 14: costs go to heating and cooling. Energy efficiency isn't just
• 11:36
  Speaker 14: good for the environment, It means lower utility bills too.
• 11:40
  Speaker 14: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home

  Speaker 14: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can

• 12:03
  Speaker 14: energy Star logo and read the energy guide label. And

• 13:09
  Speaker 1: The first thing today on the Talk Media Network by
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Joe Thomas.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: Thank you for joining us. And if you don't know,
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: and you're like, what's with all the nugent stuff, it's
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: all that's about. I thought this was Talk Radio. Tedness
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: is a celebration of God's gifts to all of us.
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: We all have a Tedness. Mine is easily filed under
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: the sign we'll talk for food, but we all have one.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: We all have something that we are just gifted at. Sadly,
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: under the gaslight of America. Many of us have been told,
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: don't worry about finding that, just stamp these four and
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: then somewhere along the line, the company comes along and says,
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: we don't need you to stamp those forms anymore. You're
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: laid off. And then you're sitting there saying, oh man, now,
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: what like seven to eleven? And I'm going to arc
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: to that in a second. So tedness means we celebrate
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: that tenness in you. Whatever it is, butcher Baker, guitar player,
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: whatever it is that you do with great expertise, you've
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: trained up to the point of mastery. You deliver it
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: to a grateful constituency. See who reward you justly for it,
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: and you don't have to worry about the other stuff.
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: It is the true essence of happiness. Sure, you want
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: everyone to like you. Nobody wants somebody to dislike them,
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: but when they do you all right. Sucks to be you.
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: You know, you're like you're missing out on the good stuff,
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: and that gives you that opportunity. That's a power that
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: no political party can give you. It just isn't. I know,
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: people think, you know it's got political ramifications, but that's
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: just because too much of our lives seem to have
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: political ramifications. I want to get into Maryland and Virginia.
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: Too often Virginia tries to be more like Maryland. I'm
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: hoping they wind up being more like Maryland. As Maryland
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: Democrats said, I don't want to be the guy to
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: blow up the districts in our just to please the
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: political leadership. God bless them for it. I will speak
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: well of the Maryland Democrats this morning, as we are
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: a week away from finding out what Virginia's public vote
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: is on it, and we have some stunning numbers. Only
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: three percent of all the money being spent on advertising
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: in the Commonwealth of Virginia regarding the redistricting referendum that,
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: like I said, culminates a week from yesterday, has come
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: from Virginia. On the other hand, the people who are
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: saying vote no, most of them are Virginians. Interesting that
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: and that being said, even the Poles say it's neck
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: and neck. But I want to spend some time on
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: a bigger story. Because we talk about cronyism and how
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: we we larp capitalism. Right now, that's live action role play.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: We're not actually Knights of the realm. We're not actually
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: in capitalism. We're role playing through what you know, people
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: organized to look like capitalism, much like the Romans thought, well,
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: everything's the same, the Senate's meeting, and you know, I
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: can go here and sell my hummus and whatever. Like
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: the Grinch, We've grown so accustomed to thinking that the
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: trappings of capitalism are capitalism that when one is getting
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: ready to close, we freak out. But that's how capitalism,
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: real capitalism is supposed to work. Rare is the company
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: that lasts three generations. Have you ever heard the expression
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: the idiot sons of the idiot sons? I know, I know,
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: I'm not supposed to use that word because it hurts
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: people's feelings, But what it means is an enterprise is created,
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: let's say, First Thing in the Morning by Joe Thomas
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: is created by my passion, my tedness, and at some point,
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: my last good marble falls out of my hand. And
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: as my daughter has said in the past, it'll take
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: several years for you to notice, but eventually you'll catch
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: on that I'm just babbling, you know, stuff that pops
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: into my random access memory chip, and maybe my daughter
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: takes over because she thinks like I do. Maybe my
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: son takes over because he's media savvy, but he doesn't
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: think in the same way. He doesn't dissect things all equally,
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: is conservative as I am in terms of things, whether
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: it's political or not to them. And it goes along
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: for a while, and First Thing Today by Mithral Thomas
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: continues for some time, and then her son takes over
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: and he couldn't care less. He's just told that he
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: must take over the family business. And that's when First
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: Thing Today by the Thomas family finally fails because somebody
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: is finally there who really isn't vested in the thing,
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: whether it's a farm, a bank, a chain of convenience stores, corporations,
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: and the corporate structure are designed to sort of change
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: that sort of inoculate to a degree because you have
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: lots of owners, but the creative destruction must still happen
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: in order for there to be capitalism. Shareholders will often
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: petition they're congressional leaders to enact another too big to
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: fail bailout, often driven by popular support for people saying.
• 19:38
  Speaker 12: You can't let seven eleven close.
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: Seven eleven is America even though it's a Japanese company
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: now because seven eleven should have closed. Oh gosh, how long?
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: So Japan loves seven eleven and seven eleven as an
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: operation as a store is so profoundly different in Japan,
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: and the Japanese love their seven elevens. They all it's
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: it's like a treat for them to go and it's
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: like a night out, that kind of thing. Oh, let's
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: do a seven eleven run. So when seven eleven first
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: went through this teetering on closing everything, the Japanese operators said, well,
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: we're doing great, and they actually bought seven to eleven
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: from inside. And now they're transitioning. They're they're going away
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: from the convenience store model to a wholesale gas model.
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: More money in that, more profitent and less you know,
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: moving parts, less liability, all these things. They decided that
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: selling gas to other gas retailers, becoming the gasoline middleman,
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: is where to be, and that's okay. But here's a
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: business that was so ubiquitous at one point it was
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: teetering on becoming like coke. You say can I have
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: a coke? When you mean can I have a cola?
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: You'd say, hey, let's go to seven eleven, meaning let's
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: go to the convenience store, and yet here we are
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: on tax Day twenty twenty six talking about seven to
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: eleven shuddering large portions of its operations. Because that happens.
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: It's not some message or some implication that a president
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: or Congress is good, bad, or indifferent, or that the
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: economy is It's just how if you let capitalism work.
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: Capitalism works because then someone else can buy that up
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: and maybe start a bodega in their town the building
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: that was a seven eleven.
• 22:03
  Speaker 8: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
• 22:08
  Speaker 8: actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
• 22:13
  Speaker 8: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
• 22:17
  Speaker 8: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.

• 24:32
  Speaker 8: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,

  Speaker 4: O restraint absolute, Amaze your friends Here at First Thing
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: Today by Joe.
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: Thomas, thank you for joining me and break it down
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: for you. You've heard me say this in the past
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: regarding our representation, and I was talking about this with
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: a group of folks. I got invited to be a
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: keynote speaker at lunch event held by the Virginia Institute
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: for Public Policy, and I brought up the fact that
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: in nineteen twenty nine, there were some two hundred and
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: thirty odd thousand American citizens within each congressional district. That
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: number is now over eight hundred thousand in some states
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: because of the Permanent Reapportionment Act of nineteen twenty nine.
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: And they were nodding, and they said, you understand what
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: I'm saying is we need more congress people. And they're like, yeah,
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: we do. And I said, then we would get more
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: political parties because the political parties couldn't control everything, and
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: they nodded. I was thinking, this is weird. I usually
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: get people saying, but Joe, that would make government bigger. No,
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: it wouldn't. It would make our representation bigger. Government then
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: can get smaller. And with that segue to John Cornyn,
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: they're trying to get a DHS funding package with just
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: Republicans he was talking to Newsmacs yesterday and said, this.
• 29:52
  Speaker 20: Hardship for a lot of these folks, and they aren't
• 29:55
  Speaker 20: to blame for anything. They didn't do anything wrong. They're
• 29:57
  Speaker 20: doing their job and we need them to do their job.
• 30:01
  Speaker 20: But we need to make them whole through this process,
• 30:04
  Speaker 20: and we need to try to figure out how do
• 30:06
  Speaker 20: we prevent this from happening again, because the nation shouldn't
• 30:10
  Speaker 20: be held hostage to a handful of Democrats who just
• 30:15
  Speaker 20: don't want to do anything.
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: And include so you would think listening to Senator Cornyon,
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: that the Democratic Party has been elected by a majority
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: of Americans to hold a majority in the US House
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: and Senate. But that's not the case. And there's a
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: radio show it's on in the mornings. You may not
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: hear it because it's on in the morning, so you
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: may have it on and just not realize it. That
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: has pointed this out time and time again, that we
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: have backseat governors for some reason. Maybe it's their ability
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: to brush their teeth while averting their eyes, whatever it is,
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: or their expertise with parliamentary procedure. The Democratic Party of
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: the United States is adept at governing from behind. And
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: I'll be the first one to tell you that representative
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: democracy is supposed to be the way that a minority
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: voice is always given a chance to be heard. So
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: even if your political party is in the minority in
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: the House and Senate, you're supposed to have the toolkits
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: available at your disposal to make your voice heard. So
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: I'm not decrying the fact that the Democrats use these
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: procedures to make their voices heard. What I decry is
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: the fact that when the Democrats take majority, all all
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: I hear from people like John Cornyn is well, elections
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: have consequences, and then they come to events where people
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: like me are and say, why are you always slagging us?
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: You know, the left wing media does nothing but bash us.
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: We don't need our friends helping like I work for you,
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: like I'm their press secretary. I'm here just to tell
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: you the truth. And this is just this is inside
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: baseball stuff. This is like the Houston Astros banging garbage
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: candlids to steal signs. But this is what I've told
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: you about time and time again. Democrats have no compunction
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: about using the rules, not breaking any rules. They're just
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: using the rules in ways that Republicans won't do The
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: rules haven't changed when the Republicans have been in the minority.
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: Yet they shrug and they go back to the district
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: and maybe it's easier to fundraise, saying elections have consequences. Man,
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: you know, if you put an extra zero on that
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: campaign contribution, maybe we can win a majority and do
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: some things. Hamp listens to us down Virginia Beach and
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: not Virginia Beach in the Treasure Coast in Vero Beach.
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: WTTB there said yesterday, texted this on yesterday's program. Read
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: into the public record. Lots and lots of bills to pass,
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: lots of things to codify in twenty twenty six, and
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: exactly what has happened. Absolutely nothing. We passed a bill
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: the US House of Representatives passed a bill yesterday that
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: would require airplanes and helicopters aircraft that first are already
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: required to have this location device on their aircraft on board.
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: They're required to keep it turned on when they're within
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: I think it's one hundred miles of an airport, maybe
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: it's two hundred dollars a zone. Because of the plane
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: crash that happened outside of Reagan National Airport, the helicopter
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: had shut off its location device. Because it's a military helicopter.
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: You've got to be able to shut those things off.
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: You don't want the Iranian you know what remains of
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: the Iranian military saying, Hey, I got a bunch of
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: helicopters coming according to their ABS locators, but around an
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: American airport. Probably shouldn't shut that off. Apparently, according to
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: the NTSB, that's what happened over the Potomac and tragedy ensued.
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: But I can't think of too many other things camp
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: to your point that what have they done? What levels
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: of things that President Trump has wanted to do that
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: President Trump has only been able to do through executive order,
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: which will be undone as soon as President Spanberger sits
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: down behind the Resolute Desk in twenty twenty nine, I'm
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: sorry for my Virginian friends. Did I mess up your breakfast?
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: Oh go see that seven eleven before closes. Okay, I
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: know down in Hampton Roads you've got my son went
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: to school there. I know there's seven elevens around there.
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: They may not be around there for very much longer.
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: So stop buy and say, I get yourself something to
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: wash down the bile that I just made come back
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: up with the thought of President Spanberger. Oh, and she
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: did a number. This week was the deadline for Virginia
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: bills to either be vetoed or a mended and sent back,
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: and she did a number on all the more lefty
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: leaning stuff except for the gun Sellar liability sign that
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: one purple ink. Then she went on tour yesterday doing
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: groundbreaking events.
• 36:33
  Speaker 18: Wearing a purple jacket.
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: Again, she's begging me to portray her as at very
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: least the Mark Hamill cartoon joker, if not the Jack
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: Nicholson joker. She's not as dark as the Heath Ledger joker.
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: She's a little bit more Caesar Romero or Jack Nicholson joker.
• 36:59
  Speaker 13: But she's wearing purple coats.
• 37:01
  Speaker 18: You're begging me to do this, Abigail.
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: But Democrats don't have a problem. And maybe Republicans just
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: don't know where the rule book is. But I think not.
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: I think they just find it to be more comfortable
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: to be the outsiders, shrugging and going on the rubber
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: chicken fundraising circuit, saying, you know, if you give us
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: a majority, we are going to because at some point
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: people get hip to the idea that you're lying to them.
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: And that's what this election in Hungary should be teaching you,
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: is that these third parties are going to start popping
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: up and they're going to start winning elections, both from
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: the Democrats and the Republican side.

• 38:09
  Speaker 21: In many states, the setane rating and diesel fuel is
• 38:12
  Speaker 21: forty two to forty five. Most diesel engines operate more
• 38:14
  Speaker 21: efficiently with the cetane rating of forty eight to fifty one.

• 38:21
  Speaker 21: seatane seven points, increase fuel economy, and improve cold starts.

  Speaker 2: Exercise is hard. Was maintaining a healthy diet. Of course,
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type two diabetes,
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a

  Speaker 2: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type two

  Speaker 2: diabetes and heart disease, and if your doctor recommends lifestyle
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: changes or medication, listen the reason so many die is

  Speaker 1: Quit on your to do list. Putting the radio on
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: is the first thing today.
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: A this Tedesday morning. Thank you for letting us be
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: of service to you. So let's let's mash two things
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: together again my revelation that people are starting to come
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: around to the idea that we've been done dirty in
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: the twenties. That the amongst the many things that happened
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: in between nineteen teen ten and nineteen thirty, the establishment
• 45:04
  Speaker 3: of the Federal Reserve and personal income tax on this
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: tax day, sixteenth Amendment, making April fifteenth just one of
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: them days that everyone ruse. As my accountant says, if
• 45:21
  Speaker 3: you're thinking about trying to reduce your tax implications today,
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: you're a little late. You need to be thinking about
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: that starting tomorrow for next year. All of these things
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: went on, and I made the case. I mentioned I
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: was at a speaking engagement yesterday and somebody brought up
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: the Civil War and that she had been a history
• 45:51
  Speaker 3: teacher and that kids in Louisiana where she had been teaching,
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: actually thought the South had won the Civil War. And
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: I looked at her dead square in the eye, and
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: I said, they did kind of did one of these.
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: I said, they did. All this technocratic stuff, the racist
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: permanent reapportionment acts, Jim Crow laws, filibusters, all of this
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: stuff happened because the now reunited Southern States were given
• 46:32
  Speaker 3: a wide berth by the Northern legislators who felt guilty,
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: a lot of them. So you think we invented this
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: stuff in twenty twenty six. So Sherman and the history
• 46:47
  Speaker 3: that is somewhat embellished regarding Sherman's march through Atlanta. I mean, heck,
• 46:55
  Speaker 3: they named their hockey team after the fact that the
• 46:58
  Speaker 3: city was burned by the Northern Army. You want to
• 47:03
  Speaker 3: talk about leaning into ignominity so that you can get
• 47:07
  Speaker 3: profit from it later you could make if you had
• 47:13
  Speaker 3: the time. And we've got hit and run here a
• 47:15
  Speaker 3: little bit. But think about all the things that happened
• 47:18
  Speaker 3: between the end of the Civil War, including the assassination
• 47:24
  Speaker 3: of Abraham Lincoln, the abandonment of forty Acres and a Mule,
• 47:30
  Speaker 3: which was Jefferson. You know, ad this Tuesday we were
• 47:34
  Speaker 3: talking about the three times Jefferson failed. The fourth time
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: is forty acres and a mule, And to be fair,
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: he wasn't alive anymore for it, but it was Lincoln
• 47:44
  Speaker 3: was going to do what Jefferson said, You've got to
• 47:47
  Speaker 3: make sure these folks have access to an economy. Would
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: you free them? And you're going to need to free
• 47:52
  Speaker 3: them at some point. But all this stuff that happened
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: after the Civil War, all the way through the development
• 48:01
  Speaker 3: of the Federal Reserve and the Federal income tax, taking
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: your money without Fifth Amendment provisions being attached, and all
• 48:11
  Speaker 3: of this stuff is all stuff that happened because we
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: gave in to this reparational idea, governmental reparations that somehow
• 48:26
  Speaker 3: the north of the liberty of the United States was
• 48:31
  Speaker 3: the cause of the Civil War, so we better start
• 48:34
  Speaker 3: giving up all those individual liberties. And what we've done
• 48:40
  Speaker 3: is we've retarded, but not extinguished, the fire that was
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: the Civil War. And here we are in twenty twenty six,
• 48:49
  Speaker 3: getting ready to get our civil war on again. It's
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: not a new one, it's the same one. The players
• 48:54
  Speaker 3: are the same, The issue is the same, a permanent
• 48:57
  Speaker 3: underclass serving us, taking care of us, doing things quote,
• 49:01
  Speaker 3: we don't want to do. But one of those things
• 49:12
  Speaker 3: was the ultra racist Permanent Reapportionment Act. And you talk
• 49:18
  Speaker 3: about John Cornyn and oh, we're being held hostage by
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: a few times. You know what, John, if there were
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: more members of the House from more districts, you might
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: have three or four different parties all vying for positions.
• 49:39
  Speaker 3: Speaker of the Houses is ostensibly Prime Minister of the
• 49:44
  Speaker 3: United States anyway, everyone says, well, you know it wouldn't
• 49:47
  Speaker 3: change the presidency. No, but if you put the electoral
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: college back in place. That's another thing Virginia did this week,
• 49:55
  Speaker 3: sold its soul signed into the National pop Or Vote Compact.
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: So now Virginia actually doesn't matter anymore except for it's
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: redistricting zeal You want to redistrict, but you don't want
• 50:09
  Speaker 3: to have any say in the electoral college anymore. You
• 50:11
  Speaker 3: want to abandon the electoral College and create even more
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: federal control over the states. John Cornyn when he says,
• 50:21
  Speaker 3: but we need to.
• 50:22
  Speaker 20: Make them whole through this process, and we need to
• 50:25
  Speaker 20: try to figure out how do we prevent this from
• 50:27
  Speaker 20: happening again, because the nation shouldn't be held hostage to
• 50:33
  Speaker 20: a handful of Democrats who.
• 50:34
  Speaker 3: Just handful of Democrats who know the parliamentary procedure and
• 50:38
  Speaker 3: know how to hold up things. But guess what if
• 50:41
  Speaker 3: you had let's just be conservative, let's just say three
• 50:46
  Speaker 3: times as many congress people, you would have more political parties.
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: The Republican and Democratic Party would actually have to compete
• 50:54
  Speaker 3: in the realm of ideas for why their best rather
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: than just vote for us, not the other guy. Sure
• 51:03
  Speaker 3: we stink, but they stink worse than us. That's what
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: our political campaigns have come down to. Sure we're horrible,
• 51:11
  Speaker 3: but we're not as horrible as the other guy. And
• 51:19
  Speaker 3: this one unlike constitutional amendments like the twenty fifth Amendment,
• 51:23
  Speaker 3: which they're also discussing, how to come up with a
• 51:28
  Speaker 3: congressional commission that circumvents the twenty fifth amendments requirement for
• 51:34
  Speaker 3: it to be driven by the vice president and the Cabinet,
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: not the legislature. Insisting that they don't have enough control
• 51:43
  Speaker 3: over the presidency, they want to come up with some
• 51:48
  Speaker 3: extra constitutional twenty fifth amendment That shouldn't surprise you. They
• 51:52
  Speaker 3: have no interest in constitution anymore. They are truly a
• 51:57
  Speaker 3: political party that run their business like a third world dictatorship.
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: Hakeem Jeffreys, Nicholas Maduro indistinguishable, Hugo Chavez, Chuck Schumer, indistinguishable
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: from one another. The American Democrat Party, good, bad, or
• 52:18
  Speaker 3: indifferent to your thinking, operates with the idea that I
• 52:22
  Speaker 3: just suspend the rules until it suits my purpose. Thank goodness,
• 52:28
  Speaker 3: Maryland's Democrats decided not to do it. Now that maybe
• 52:32
  Speaker 3: a rebuke of Westmore's popularity up or down with his party,
• 52:37
  Speaker 3: but at least they stood the line and Virginia, with
• 52:42
  Speaker 3: a week to go before the redistricting referendum ends, needs
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: to look at what Maryland did and wake up and
• 52:49
  Speaker 3: smell the campaign contributions.
• 52:51
  Speaker 16: Crime across the country is at an all time high.
• 52:54
  Speaker 16: It feels like even a family road trip is taking
• 52:57
  Speaker 16: a risk. We don't want the feeling of being unprotected
• 53:00
  Speaker 16: and vulnerable. We found GETCCL dot com. Get CCL dot
