- 0:42Speaker 7: you this morning.
- 0:45Speaker 8: Back at it.
- 0:46Speaker 9: This is this is not another Dajabu moment.
- 0:50Speaker 7: We are here at Freedom Fence, brought to you by
- 0:52Speaker 7: our friends at the Heritage Foundation and their Historic Sites program.
- 0:56Speaker 7: So you know that you don't get slapped upside the
- 0:58Speaker 7: head with and buried under snowflakes if you go and
- 1:02Speaker 7: visit some of the great historic sites, especially as we
- 1:06Speaker 7: celebrate two hundred and fifty years of We the People,
- 1:10Speaker 7: as well as brought to you by our friends at
- 1:12Speaker 7: Big Ridge Guns and Archery Big Ridge Guns dot com.
- 1:17Speaker 7: Ken Kochinelli, former DHS Secretary and Attorney General for the
- 1:22Speaker 7: Commonwealth of Virginia, going to join us now head of
- 1:25Speaker 7: Election Transparency Initiative. We've got stop a couple of rulings
- 1:31Speaker 7: and a couple of cases to.
- 1:33Speaker 9: Go over there.
- 1:33Speaker 7: He's also involved. He's one of the attorneys in these
- 1:36Speaker 7: suits that are stopping all the gun grabs too.
- 1:39Speaker 9: There.
- 1:39Speaker 7: But our friend James Lucke is on the phone with
- 1:41Speaker 7: us from jcsgold dot Com. Always standing with us there.
- 1:46Speaker 7: Jcsgold dot Com a family business. Not there on a
- 1:50Speaker 7: call center trying to make a quota or reach a
- 1:54Speaker 7: goal for a sales incentive. They're just trying to help
- 1:58Speaker 7: you get into the gold and silver business. How you
- 2:00Speaker 7: doing this morning, James.
- 2:02Speaker 10: I'm doing well, Joe, and gold and silver are trying
- 2:04Speaker 10: to rebound a little bit today. We've had a little
- 2:06Speaker 10: bit of a dip here first part of the week,
- 2:09Speaker 10: but gold is currently up almost one percent, up thirty
- 2:12Speaker 10: five dollars to four one hundred and thirteen dollars, holding
- 2:16Speaker 10: strong there above four thousand dollars. Silver dip below sixty,
- 2:21Speaker 10: trying to reclaim that here before the week is over.
- 2:24Speaker 10: Silver's currently up a one and a half percent of
- 2:27Speaker 10: fifty nine dollars and eighteen cents.
- 2:29Speaker 9: All right, So it's bouncing back.
- 2:31Speaker 7: Because I was curious looking at the Wall Street and
- 2:34Speaker 7: how it reacted to the bombs dropping and Iran again.
- 2:39Speaker 7: But you're saying gold and silver look like they're getting
- 2:41Speaker 7: some strength back.
- 2:43Speaker 10: Yeah, they're getting some strength back here, you know. And
- 2:45Speaker 10: it seems like the broader market overall is maybe getting
- 2:49Speaker 10: a little bit more used to bombs flying and dropping,
- 2:55Speaker 10: and it seems to be a little less reactionary than
- 2:57Speaker 10: it was about a month ago.
- 2:58Speaker 7: All right, Well, that's the site that you get, like
- 3:01Speaker 7: I said, from a family business that's been doing this
- 3:03Speaker 7: since nineteen sixty one. Find them at jcsgold dot com. James,

- 3:28Speaker 7: you tomorrow. Thanks to show you too, and you can
- 3:32Speaker 7: join us at four three four eight A two four
- 3:35Speaker 7: two one seven. The first things that we're watching this
- 3:39Speaker 7: morning NATO and President Trump there and dropping verbal bombs
- 3:46Speaker 7: as much as anything else, saying that the ceasefire with
- 3:50Speaker 7: Iran is effectively over. After Iran hit some ships trying
- 3:55Speaker 7: to go through the Strait of Horror moves. The US
- 3:57Speaker 7: hit some military sites near Shahbahar and Bandar Abbas and
- 4:05Speaker 7: several others. Meanwhile, Iranian TV is reporting an Iranian official
- 4:11Speaker 7: security official said any strike against Iran will lead to
- 4:17Speaker 7: two immediate actions. First, the Strait of Horror Moves will
- 4:20Speaker 7: be completely closed to maritime traffic, and secondly, Iran will
- 4:24Speaker 7: strike any target at a ratio of at least two
- 4:28Speaker 7: to one. However, they weren't saying that had already happened.
- 4:32Speaker 7: They were just saying, don't do that again. S and
- 4:34Speaker 7: P five hundred, as I mentioned with James dropped, Under
- 4:38Speaker 7: dropped five hundred points lower. I think five seventy seven total,
- 4:44Speaker 7: as Broadcom gained, but a lot of other blue chip
- 4:47Speaker 7: stocks fell. Speaking at the NATO summit in Turkey, President
- 4:51Speaker 7: Trump said he had no interest in furthering any talks
- 4:55Speaker 7: with Iran as of right now. He also said that
- 5:00Speaker 7: he was going to ask that Turkey be reinstated in
- 5:04Speaker 7: the US led F thirty five fighter jet program, saying
- 5:09Speaker 7: I haven't totally made up my mind, but he's done everything.
- 5:12Speaker 7: Meeting President Ertigan, He's helped us in so many ways,
- 5:15Speaker 7: and you know who else has been good to us?
- 5:18Speaker 7: China left several folks scratching their head. President Trump also
- 5:23Speaker 7: said he's going to ask the Supreme Court to re
- 5:26Speaker 7: visit the five to four decision on birthright citizenship quote
- 5:32Speaker 7: immediately JD Vance in Milwaukee saying he's going after the
- 5:37Speaker 7: H one B VISA program, saying it's berefed with fraud.
- 5:42Speaker 7: He said, quote, here's a simple principle, ladies and gentlemen,
- 5:46Speaker 7: American jobs ought to go to American workers. Graham Platner
- 5:51Speaker 7: has pulled out of the US Senate race in Maine
- 5:56Speaker 7: following the allegations of more sexual assaults in his past. Now,
- 6:01Speaker 7: the Democratic Party of Maine held an emergency meeting of
- 6:06Speaker 7: their state Central Committee yesterday and they've determined that they
- 6:10Speaker 7: will hold a nominating convention so that all that main
- 6:14Speaker 7: residents can feel confident that it wasn't a smoke fille

- 6:29Speaker 7: dollars fine. Hey, you may have heard I write for

- 8:04Speaker 11: Considered by most Optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 8:07Speaker 11: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
- 8:13Speaker 11: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 8:18Speaker 11: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 8:22Speaker 11: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 8:27Speaker 11: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 8:32Speaker 11: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 8:37Speaker 11: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 8:42Speaker 11: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 8:46Speaker 11: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

- 10:00Speaker 13: It's always a boy growing up on a farm in Tennessee,
- 10:03Speaker 13: I've been fascinated with animals. I'm not only in awe
- 10:05Speaker 13: of their beauty and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic.
- 10:08Speaker 13: Just look at the birds who gather supplies to build nests,
- 10:11Speaker 13: or Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,
- 10:14Speaker 13: or penguins who travel up to five hundred miles to
- 10:17Speaker 13: secure food for their families, or bush babies whose impressive
- 10:20Speaker 13: jump allows them to navigate the trees and the wild
- 10:23Speaker 13: in search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared
- 10:25Speaker 13: by our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are
- 10:29Speaker 13: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
- 10:32Speaker 13: they also perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep
- 10:35Speaker 13: us safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of
- 10:37Speaker 13: whom suffer from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them
- 10:41Speaker 13: when there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs
- 10:44Speaker 13: have a variety of highly trained roles that contribute to
- 10:46Speaker 13: society and help those in need. So please join me

- 13:24Speaker 1: Joe Thomas on the Tunk Media Network.
- 13:27Speaker 9: Damn dog.
- 13:27Speaker 7: We're all afraid to speak the truth, and the more
- 13:29Speaker 7: afraid we get, the more we hate the ones who do.
- 13:31Speaker 9: You're ashamed to be American. Okay, that's cool because honestly.
- 13:35Speaker 5: We are all ashamed of YouTube dollars.
- 13:37Speaker 7: So on this Thursday morning, back to it and man,
- 13:41Speaker 7: I missed you yesterday, but not to be labor here
- 13:44Speaker 7: at Freedom Fest, the world's biggest gathering of free minds,
- 13:48Speaker 7: here in the least libertarian city in America.
- 13:52Speaker 9: I know.
- 13:54Speaker 7: Prostitution and drugs have always been kind of u and gambling,
- 13:59Speaker 7: but if you try to carry a box of books
- 14:02Speaker 7: into a conference center, you'll have eight different unions grabbing
- 14:07Speaker 7: you saying, hey, you know we are supposed to be
- 14:10Speaker 7: doing that. I swear to goodness, Las Vegas. If you
- 14:14Speaker 7: actually try to live or operate a business in Las
- 14:17Speaker 7: Vegas makes it makes Chicago seem like a libertarian nirvana
- 14:23Speaker 7: when it comes to being able to do anything. Like
- 14:26Speaker 7: I said, sure you can gamble and hire a prostitute,
- 14:29Speaker 7: but that doesn't make libertarianism. A man who knows a
- 14:32Speaker 7: little bit about this and not gambling or prostitution. Although
- 14:37Speaker 7: I'm sure he's prosecuted same as Attorney General when necessary.
- 14:42Speaker 7: He is from the Election Transparency Initiative, the Great Ken Kochinelli.
- 14:46Speaker 9: How are you, Ken?
- 14:48Speaker 8: I'm all right for morning.
- 14:50Speaker 9: Do you ever come out to Freedom Fest? This libertarian?
- 14:54Speaker 7: I know Rand Paul is here today and yesterday and
- 14:58Speaker 7: he's sort of fighting with Rob Schneider to be the
- 15:01Speaker 7: most famous person in the room. And I know you
- 15:05Speaker 7: guys work together a lot in the Senate, But you know,
- 15:08Speaker 7: did you ever come out to this when you were
- 15:10Speaker 7: running for governor, when you were Attorney general or at DHS.
- 15:15Speaker 8: I have never been to it. No, it's a you're
- 15:19Speaker 8: more of a traveler than me.
- 15:22Speaker 9: Not by choice.
- 15:23Speaker 7: Sometimes we go to where the interesting stuff is. But
- 15:28Speaker 7: I bring it up because voting was something that came
- 15:30Speaker 7: up yesterday. We had a little mixer, everyone getting in
- 15:34Speaker 7: here and all there are a dozen different groups that
- 15:39Speaker 7: are trying to come up with new ways to vote.
- 15:41Speaker 7: There's a ranked choice voting group here. There are all
- 15:45Speaker 7: sorts of people who are trying to get in between
- 15:47Speaker 7: every valid voter casting one valid vote. There's an open
- 15:51Speaker 7: voting group here. There's a group that wants to do
- 15:54Speaker 7: digital voting and move everything online. And I'm like, man,
- 15:59Speaker 7: you know, sure, you know. The libertarian mind is you
- 16:02Speaker 7: should be able to do whatever you want. But we
- 16:04Speaker 7: got to have a government. Wasn't there something about to
- 16:07Speaker 7: secure these rights? I remember, as Martin Luther King says
- 16:11Speaker 7: something like that somewhere I read So what's going on
- 16:15Speaker 7: at ET? I was reading your piece about New Jersey
- 16:18Speaker 7: litigating rather than.
- 16:21Speaker 9: Leadership. I guess litigation instead of leadership.
- 16:26Speaker 22: Well, so you've got some political grand standing going on
- 16:30Speaker 22: after the Louisiana.
- 16:31Speaker 8: Versus Kela case. No, really so for listeners.
- 16:35Speaker 22: That case was decided by the Supreme Court and.
- 16:40Speaker 8: It involved the.
- 16:44Speaker 22: Voting Rights Act in Louisiana, and basically the Supreme Court
- 16:49Speaker 22: said you have to have an intent to discriminate to
- 16:53Speaker 22: violate the Voting Rights Act. Well, that seems pretty reasonable
- 16:58Speaker 22: I think to most people on its face, and the
- 17:00Speaker 22: Left went crazy over it, and because they want to
- 17:03Speaker 22: be able to declare discrimination without intent, and of course,
- 17:09Speaker 22: if you've got a dictionary, you might end up scratching
- 17:12Speaker 22: your head over that because discrimination naturally requires some intent.
- 17:18Speaker 22: So many of us think the Supreme Court has finally
- 17:21Speaker 22: gotten the Voting Right Sack back to its original purpose.
- 17:24Speaker 22: And of course, you know you and I are from Virginia.
- 17:27Speaker 22: It's easy to understand. Historically the original need for the
- 17:31Speaker 22: Voting Rights Act there was genuine discrimination efforts and tools
- 17:36Speaker 22: to block black voters from participating or black citizens from
- 17:42Speaker 22: even becoming voters. Yes, that's exactly right, and it served
- 17:49Speaker 22: that purpose. It has worked, but the left has gotten
- 17:58Speaker 22: accustomed to being able to use race under the Voting
- 18:02Speaker 22: Rights Act now.
- 18:04Speaker 8: To gain political advantage.
- 18:06Speaker 22: And so that's what they're really upset about in the
- 18:08Speaker 22: Louisiana versus Kale case. And as part of that temper
- 18:12Speaker 22: tantrum here in New Jersey, you've got them passing a
- 18:16Speaker 22: bill that they grandly call the you know, the John R.
- 18:20Speaker 8: Lewis Voter Empowerment Act, and basically they say you can't
- 18:25Speaker 8: discriminate and.
- 18:26Speaker 22: There's a fifty by the way, that the fifty thousand dollars,
- 18:28Speaker 22: Fine if you do. And so the our kind of
- 18:33Speaker 22: a litigation is that they've they've empowered state authorities to
- 18:36Speaker 22: go and enforce this, but the Republicans have voted against it,
- 18:41Speaker 22: kept saying this is already illegal in Virginia. I'm not Virginia,
- 18:46Speaker 22: New Jersey. You already can't discriminate, you know, la laugh.
- 18:51Speaker 22: Trump is terrible.
- 18:53Speaker 8: He got to do with it. You know, a lot
- 18:55Speaker 8: of Trump arrangement syndrome going on here.
- 18:57Speaker 22: Sure, And so that's our point is they're looking, they're
- 19:01Speaker 22: trying to.
- 19:02Speaker 8: Drag into litigation.
- 19:05Speaker 22: Issues of line drawing within their own state edit and
- 19:09Speaker 22: to fulfill their temper tantrum over the Louisiana Versus Kale case.
- 19:14Speaker 9: Isn't it?
- 19:15Speaker 7: First and foremost My first pass over this is if
- 19:19Speaker 7: a bill is called the Voter Empowerment Act, that's exactly
- 19:22Speaker 7: the opposite of what its intent is. Since they want
- 19:25Speaker 7: to talk about intent, because if you start to let
- 19:30Speaker 7: politicians pick their voters, and I remember somebody talking ardently
- 19:36Speaker 7: about avoiding that, then you're going to And it's always
- 19:42Speaker 7: always one of the things, you know, when when Horace
- 19:44Speaker 7: Cooper beat down the or help beat down the preclearance
- 19:48Speaker 7: lists uh in the Voting Rights Act. The intent of
- 19:53Speaker 7: some of these things, you know, if they're going to
- 19:56Speaker 7: talk about the intent to be racist, a lot of
- 19:59Speaker 7: these nations in the in the thirties and forties and
- 20:04Speaker 7: fifties were actually meant to be more divisive. The idea
- 20:09Speaker 7: that you have you know, one or two majority minority
- 20:13Speaker 7: precincts rather than allowing communities to grow and prosper and
- 20:17Speaker 7: be freely. You know who's associating with them, is patently
- 20:22Speaker 7: redlining in and of itself.
- 20:23Speaker 9: Ken Or you know, I'm not the lawyer you are,
- 20:27Speaker 9: but that's what I see in it.
- 20:30Speaker 8: Well, I don't disagree with you.
- 20:34Speaker 22: And you know how this has evolved over time, We've
- 20:39Speaker 22: we've reached a point of you know, borderline just silliness
- 20:43Speaker 22: in terms of appearance over substance, right. I mean, politics
- 20:50Speaker 22: has always had some of that, right, but now it's
- 20:53Speaker 22: it's it's like the substance.
- 20:57Speaker 8: Borders on irrelevant. And this New Jersey builds a good example.
- 21:02Speaker 22: As the opponents of it, or at least the non supporters,
- 21:07Speaker 22: they clearly don't oppose protecting against discrimination. What they said was,
- 21:14Speaker 22: you know what you're doing here is already illegal. I mean, basically,
- 21:18Speaker 22: they're saying, if you violate equal protection, which by the way,
- 21:23Speaker 22: is in the federal Constitution, and so it already exists,
- 21:27Speaker 22: that we're going to have this separate state fine and
- 21:32Speaker 22: litigation process.
- 21:33Speaker 8: Well, I guess you can add the.
- 21:35Speaker 22: Fine, but it isn't like they're creating a new offense
- 21:44Speaker 22: and enforcing it. More silliness on the left, But I
- 21:49Speaker 22: definitely agree with you on these names. I say this
- 21:52Speaker 22: about Washington all the time. You know, the Affordable Care Act,
- 21:55Speaker 22: it's not affordable and they don't care. And that Neutrality
- 21:59Speaker 22: Act is to control the Internet.
- 22:01Speaker 8: True.
- 22:02Speaker 11: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
- 22:07Speaker 11: actually three known gas is I I'm doctor Mitch, and
- 22:12Speaker 11: nitric oxide is a gas that's readily made all day
- 22:16Speaker 11: long to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood
- 22:20Speaker 11: vessel walls. By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood,
- 22:26Speaker 11: oxygen and nutrients to every part of your body. Both
- 22:31Speaker 11: age and poor diet can lead to a loss of
- 22:34Speaker 11: this precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
- 22:38Speaker 11: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in

- 24:07Speaker 11: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
- 24:12Speaker 11: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 24:18Speaker 11: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 24:22Speaker 11: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 24:26Speaker 11: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 24:31Speaker 11: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 24:36Speaker 11: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 24:42Speaker 11: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 24:45Speaker 11: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

- 28:17Speaker 9: Thank you for letting us be of service to you.
- 28:19Speaker 7: Here live at freedom Fest, the world's biggest gathering of freeminds,
- 28:25Speaker 7: and find out more at freedomfest dot com. But also
- 28:31Speaker 7: you go and see because I believe some of the
- 28:36Speaker 7: content already is up online.
- 28:37Speaker 9: Social media and.
- 28:41Speaker 7: Take a look at what's happening, uh there and some
- 28:45Speaker 7: great video already stuff from yesterday, we spent some time
- 28:49Speaker 7: on Rob Schneider's point about taking taking Andrew Breitbart's point
- 28:57Speaker 7: about culture being upstream from government, and Rob made a
- 29:03Speaker 7: point yesterday and here at freedom Fest that then media
- 29:07Speaker 7: entertainment is upstream from culture, and I think, you know,
- 29:10Speaker 7: though I don't disagree that that's where we are right now,
- 29:13Speaker 7: I think it is indicative of our problem as we're
- 29:17Speaker 7: allowing the entertainment media to create our culture for us,
- 29:23Speaker 7: and because our news lives in the same ecosystem as
- 29:28Speaker 7: our entertainment, it winds up trying to do the same
- 29:31Speaker 7: thing and.
- 29:32Speaker 9: Gets used for it. Your thoughts as well.
- 29:34Speaker 7: We'll get back to Ken Kochinelli from the election Transparency Initiative,
- 29:40Speaker 7: but want to talk about data centers, because there's another
- 29:44Speaker 7: one here at a libertarian think tank group, you know,
- 29:50Speaker 7: convention that we're at eight thousand different opinions about data centers,
- 29:55Speaker 7: and I'm they're mad at me for all of them,
- 29:59Speaker 7: because my point is I'd rather have data centers in
- 30:03Speaker 7: the United States than in China. And they're like, but
- 30:07Speaker 7: what about the electricity, So they're not it's not the electricity.
- 30:10Speaker 9: Well what about the water. It's not the water, you know.
- 30:13Speaker 7: And and then when I point to the articles that say, hey, look,
- 30:16Speaker 7: by the way, all this rhetoric about data centers being
- 30:20Speaker 7: paid for by China, but what about the water, and
- 30:23Speaker 7: it's I can't get anywhere. It's like I feel like, uh,
- 30:27Speaker 7: my cousin Vinnie stuck in the mud. They're spinning my
- 30:30Speaker 7: Cadillac tires there, Ross Marsh and executive director uh and
- 30:37Speaker 7: uh you know, you know, leader and push there to
- 30:42Speaker 7: uh talk about the Taxpayers Protection Alliance. Ross, thank you
- 30:48Speaker 7: for joining us this morning. How are you doing, sir,
- 30:51Speaker 7: doing great?
- 30:52Speaker 19: Happy to be in your show.
- 30:53Speaker 7: Well, thank you for taking a little time out help
- 30:56Speaker 7: me out here, help me get out of the mud
- 31:00Speaker 7: here and get some traction on this because I just
- 31:02Speaker 7: want to have a reasonable conversation about data centers, am
- 31:08Speaker 7: I do? I'm not disregarding the fact that there's surveillance
- 31:13Speaker 7: going on and people knowing what's going on in my data,
- 31:16Speaker 7: but we can figure that out the existence of the data.
- 31:19Speaker 7: I feel like it's almost like the gun issue. People
- 31:22Speaker 7: are like, well, guns are used for violence. Well, guns
- 31:25Speaker 7: are also used for self defense. Data is used for surveillance.
- 31:28Speaker 7: But data is also used for great things. I mean,
- 31:31Speaker 7: we're treating these inanimate objects like they're creating the scenarios
- 31:36Speaker 7: by which people are doing bad things to each other,
- 31:40Speaker 7: when truthfully, I mean, you know, there's a lot to
- 31:42Speaker 7: be said for data centers. You guys even have a
- 31:46Speaker 7: toolkit about it, talk about that.
- 31:50Speaker 19: Sure, Yeah, And as you say, let's have a reasonable
- 31:52Speaker 19: conversation because there is so much unreasonable back and forth
- 31:55Speaker 19: and so much myth and misinformation being trotted out about
- 31:59Speaker 19: data centers, and the truth of the matter is we
- 32:01Speaker 19: go so you know, TPA, we go state by state
- 32:04Speaker 19: and we try for each state to look at the
- 32:06Speaker 19: energy usage and the water usage for these data centers,
- 32:09Speaker 19: and we find Virginia, for example, it's one point four percent,
- 32:14Speaker 19: only one point four percent of total water consumption and
- 32:17Speaker 19: less than five percent for electricity consumption. Now, if you
- 32:20Speaker 19: listen to some of these policy makers you're trying to
- 32:22Speaker 19: sew division, we're trying to ban these data centers, you
- 32:25Speaker 19: would think it would be twenty percent of water and
- 32:28Speaker 19: sixty percent of electricity, But that is simply not the
- 32:30Speaker 19: case when we're finding more or less consistent stats state
- 32:34Speaker 19: by state. It's just it's not consuming the natural resources
- 32:38Speaker 19: that opponents and these projects claim that they do well.
- 32:40Speaker 7: And the electricity bit is maddening to me because they're
- 32:44Speaker 7: acting like we're giving them free electricity and passing the
- 32:48Speaker 7: you know, costs onto.
- 32:49Speaker 9: The home rate payers.
- 32:51Speaker 7: If they use it kill a lot of electricity, they
- 32:54Speaker 7: pay as much for that as I do at my
- 32:56Speaker 7: house in Palmyra, Virginia, and they just you are using
- 33:01Speaker 7: a whole crap ton more of them. It's not like
- 33:03Speaker 7: it's a finite thing. And if we're being asked to
- 33:08Speaker 7: pay more for electricity, it's all based on policies that
- 33:11Speaker 7: were written back when the government should have known better.
- 33:14Speaker 7: When Virginia signed into this economic disarmament suicide packed with
- 33:21Speaker 7: California back in twenty twenty one, we knew that Virginia
- 33:27Speaker 7: was home to almost half of the country's data centers,
- 33:31Speaker 7: and yet we blindly said, yeah, and we're going to
- 33:33Speaker 7: start shutting down electric generating plants. And then it's almost
- 33:37Speaker 7: like they had it planned ross. Then they turned around
- 33:40Speaker 7: and said, yeah, but now we need to you know,
- 33:42Speaker 7: the rates have to go up because of the data centers.
- 33:45Speaker 7: And it's ridiculous, it doesn't make any sense and I'm
- 33:48Speaker 7: not even an economist.
- 33:51Speaker 8: Well, here's the good news.
- 33:52Speaker 19: The good news is that it's very easy to test
- 33:54Speaker 19: this idea that data centers are driving electricity price For it,
- 33:58Speaker 19: all you need to do is look at the different states,
- 34:00Speaker 19: because fifty different states have fifty very different approaches of
- 34:02Speaker 19: data centers. So you could okay, at states like Virginia
- 34:06Speaker 19: and Texas, and those states are really leading the charge
- 34:09Speaker 19: on data center deployment, new projects, and look, if data
- 34:13Speaker 19: centers were resulting in electricity price hikes, you could say, well,
- 34:18Speaker 19: probably Texas and Virginia are going to be leading the
- 34:21Speaker 19: way for power bill price increases. And that's just not
- 34:25Speaker 19: the case. In fact, the Institute for Energy Research really
- 34:27Speaker 19: great rigorous organization. They did the economic research and they
- 34:32Speaker 19: looked at the fifty states, and they looked at data
- 34:34Speaker 19: center growth, they looked at powerbill growth, and they found
- 34:37Speaker 19: there's just no connection between the two.
- 34:39Speaker 7: So how do people find this? Because you have a
- 34:41Speaker 7: toolkit that it's not just for media people like me,
- 34:44Speaker 7: Lord knows we could be dangerous with sharp objects. Ross
- 34:48Speaker 7: March and on with us from of the Taxpayers Protection Alliance.
- 34:52Speaker 7: It's protecting taxpayers dot org. Is your website? Is that
- 34:55Speaker 7: the best place for people to go to look at
- 34:58Speaker 7: this fifty stateside each comparison toolkit?
- 35:03Speaker 19: Yes, exactly. Yeah, so we have on Protecting Taxpayers dot org.
- 35:07Speaker 19: We have those toolkits now we're up to twenty five states,
- 35:10Speaker 19: and we also have a Q and A where we
- 35:11Speaker 19: try to answer is really commonly asked questions about data centers.
- 35:15Speaker 7: Is the idea that data centers and taxpayers are even
- 35:19Speaker 7: in the same conversation a problem because you know, to me,
- 35:25Speaker 7: data centers are just something that should you know, if
- 35:28Speaker 7: a company wants to do artificial intelligence or just you know,
- 35:32Speaker 7: make a great search engine, you know they can do it.
- 35:35Speaker 7: They don't need the taxpayers to be involved. And I've
- 35:38Speaker 7: talked to a lot of data center groups who have
- 35:40Speaker 7: said we don't want the taxpayers involved. We want to
- 35:44Speaker 7: do our business and serve them in our own way,
- 35:47Speaker 7: but we don't need the government to stick their nose
- 35:50Speaker 7: in there. But yet they insist on it.
- 35:53Speaker 19: That's exactly where taxpayer should not be involved. And any
- 35:56Speaker 19: proposal that involves taxpayer funded data centers, we would pose,
- 36:00Speaker 19: just like we opposed taxpayer funded broadband projects across the country.
- 36:04Speaker 19: But listen to this. You have examples like Louden County,
- 36:07Speaker 19: and they have been very accommodating to data centers, and
- 36:11Speaker 19: taxpayers have benefited because it brings in the case of
- 36:14Speaker 19: Louden County, Virginia, a billion dollars a year in tax revenues.
- 36:19Speaker 19: That's not half for operating budget revenue, and that's been
- 36:22Speaker 19: able to quote unquote pay for a property tax reduction
- 36:27Speaker 19: over multiple years, and it funds essential public services. Suit
- 36:31Speaker 19: you have this accommodating approach, and you just give these
- 36:34Speaker 19: data center projects a chance. Taxpayers absolutely do this well.
- 36:38Speaker 7: And here's the funny thing. So the politicians not that
- 36:41Speaker 7: they should surprise anyone when they don't lower the taxpayers'
- 36:45Speaker 7: taxes enough that the taxpayers say, hey, hold on a second,
- 36:49Speaker 7: you made all this money off the data centers. Why
- 36:51Speaker 7: didn't my taxes go down more? They managed FANGALII like
- 36:55Speaker 7: to blame the data centers for the fact that they
- 36:58Speaker 7: didn't lower their tax their citizen's taxes sufficiently.
- 37:04Speaker 19: Yeah, and it's you know, there's so many fluzy arguments
- 37:07Speaker 19: about taxes, and you know, data centers actually costing taxpayers
- 37:11Speaker 19: a lot of money. But look, wherever data centers are welcome,
- 37:15Speaker 19: taxpayers ultimately benefit. So they benefit for tax revenue in
- 37:19Speaker 19: a direct way. So that could you know, fund and
- 37:22Speaker 19: way the groundwork for property tax reductions for example. I
- 37:26Speaker 19: mean also you know, just in general for prosperity. I
- 37:28Speaker 19: mean we're talking about really well paying jobs at these days,
- 37:31Speaker 19: projects resulting. And you know, if you earn a lot
- 37:35Speaker 19: of money, of course, you know you're going to pay
- 37:37Speaker 19: more in taxes and you're going.
- 37:38Speaker 9: To you know, it's it's canes.
- 37:42Speaker 7: Really, if I have money in my pocket, I'm going
- 37:44Speaker 7: to spend that money.

- 37:59Speaker 25: There's more at Hotshot Secret, we share the science behind
- 38:04Speaker 25: common diesel problems in their solutions.
- 38:06Speaker 17: For example, diesel fuel setane levels.
- 38:08Speaker 25: In many states, the setane rating and diesel fuel is
- 38:11Speaker 25: forty two to forty five. Most diesel engines operate more
- 38:14Speaker 25: efficiently with the cetane rating of forty eight to fifty one.

- 44:23Speaker 3: Parmis fulm was about the follow victim of the dreaded
- 44:26Speaker 3: international Chinese Communist conspiracy. Yes, these fanatical themes under the
- 44:32Speaker 3: leadership of the so called MAPSE. Tom had caught this
- 44:36Speaker 3: film offside for one brief the table moment.
- 44:42Speaker 7: And destroyed her and with the new active ingredient fraudulent
- 44:47Speaker 7: and Adam marchend Is Ross marchand pardon me. I'm not
- 44:51Speaker 7: sure Adam is if he's a relative. I hope it's
- 44:53Speaker 7: one you like. Ross from the Taxpayer Protection Alliance on
- 44:57Speaker 7: was Ken Kuchinelli from the Election Transparent Currency Initiative, Live
- 45:01Speaker 7: from Freedom Fest this morning and Lost Wages Nevada for
- 45:05Speaker 7: you for your dining and dancing pleasure. Here the world's
- 45:09Speaker 7: biggest gathering of free minds, and you know, freeing the mind,
- 45:14Speaker 7: Ross is what I wanted to talk about, is, you
- 45:17Speaker 7: know China and its role in the narrative over data centers. Obviously,
- 45:24Speaker 7: the Chinese Communist Party wants data centers in their country,
- 45:30Speaker 7: and I want them in the United States. And my
- 45:33Speaker 7: argument has been and you tell me if this is
- 45:34Speaker 7: crazy or not, and please my wife will tell me
- 45:38Speaker 7: I'm crazy, so you can too, Ross. But having a
- 45:43Speaker 7: data center in a land governed by a bill of
- 45:47Speaker 7: rights that says I have privacy and protection, whether or
- 45:50Speaker 7: not right now we feel like that's being ardently pursued
- 45:53Speaker 7: or not, it exists, and I can go into court
- 45:56Speaker 7: and say my privacy has been violated. I can't do
- 45:58Speaker 7: that if these data or let's just say, in someplace
- 46:02Speaker 7: like the Wuhan region of.
- 46:04Speaker 19: China, exactly. It's really really simple. You can't just ban
- 46:09Speaker 19: data centers. You think you could ban data centers. What
- 46:11Speaker 19: you really do is you just chase them elsewhere. In
- 46:14Speaker 19: this case, you're chasing them to China, and you're seeding
- 46:17Speaker 19: AI leadership. That's not just about AI. It's not the
- 46:19Speaker 19: broader digital domain, it's not the Internet. So we all
- 46:22Speaker 19: benefit from data centers. Every time we search for something
- 46:25Speaker 19: on Google or buy something Amazon Primes, we're all benefiting
- 46:28Speaker 19: from data centers, and we seed that digital leadership to
- 46:32Speaker 19: China when we chase away these data centers.
- 46:35Speaker 7: Well, Ross, thank you so much. What other stuff are
- 46:38Speaker 7: you working on at the Taxpayer Protection Alliance?
- 46:43Speaker 19: Well, look, so we tell everyone, if you see something,
- 46:45Speaker 19: say something. So if you see a local tax initiative,
- 46:48Speaker 19: and of course you know buer crests are always trying
- 46:50Speaker 19: to see how they could raise their taxes, both directly
- 46:52Speaker 19: and indirectly, So if you see that, please let us know.
- 46:56Speaker 19: You know, we're fighting across the board all levels of
- 46:59Speaker 19: government again, these terrible, heavy handed, expensive taxes and regulation.
- 47:04Speaker 7: Absolutely, and we're right here in the middle of it. Ross,
- 47:09Speaker 7: I'm just down the block from where they're going to
- 47:11Speaker 7: tear down a casino to put up a baseball stadium
- 47:15Speaker 7: and lost it. If you ever thought you'd live in
- 47:18Speaker 7: a world see the day when somebody was going to
- 47:21Speaker 7: tear down a casino in Las Vegas to build some
- 47:25Speaker 7: you know anything else you you.
- 47:27Speaker 9: Are in that day now.
- 47:29Speaker 7: But I appreciated tax protecting taxpayers Dot org Ken election
- 47:35Speaker 7: transparency again, folks, sadly we need people like you protecting
- 47:43Speaker 7: you know, our rights to, oh, I don't know, vote
- 47:46Speaker 7: for things and feel like our votes are being kept.
- 47:50Speaker 7: But every time you're telling you about this John Lewis
- 47:54Speaker 7: voter rights protection, you know, we know that these legislations
- 48:00Speaker 7: are basically telling us the opposite of what they are.
- 48:04Speaker 8: And it's bipartisan.
- 48:06Speaker 22: I mean, let's face it, what was the biggest one
- 48:10Speaker 22: in Biden The Inflation Reduction Act?
- 48:13Speaker 9: Oh yeah, shovel ready jobs.
- 48:15Speaker 7: All of these you know, they the machinations and maybe,
- 48:21Speaker 7: bless their heart, they're actually trying to legislate something rather
- 48:25Speaker 7: than just give a speech about it. But that's even
- 48:28Speaker 7: more frightening is the idea that they're actually trying to
- 48:30Speaker 7: write a law rather than just make a speech that
- 48:33Speaker 7: gets some you know, cheer points there at the end,
- 48:38Speaker 7: of it. None of it protects the voter from having
- 48:44Speaker 7: their vote infringed. And this was the point I made,
- 48:46Speaker 7: and I'm curious your thought on this at the Election
- 48:49Speaker 7: Transparency Initiative, but also somebody who's been an attorney general
- 48:53Speaker 7: and the DHS secretary. All these extra things they're trying
- 48:59Speaker 7: to do, they are taking away my right to have
- 49:03Speaker 7: my vote count by allowing people who aren't citizens to vote,
- 49:07Speaker 7: by not making sure that people who aren't citizens aren't voting.
- 49:10Speaker 7: However you want to pitch it, Yeah, my right has
- 49:13Speaker 7: been violated. So therefore there's a patently unconstitutional aspect of
- 49:19Speaker 7: all of this, you know, open election stuff.
- 49:22Speaker 9: Ken, Am I wrong?
- 49:24Speaker 22: No, You're not wrong. You know, one of the challenges
- 49:30Speaker 22: is that you know, to sue on that, you have
- 49:35Speaker 22: to explain a special and unique injury to yourself. The
- 49:39Speaker 22: fact is it's an injury to all the voters that
- 49:42Speaker 22: are appropriate, and so strangely enough, they're insulated from you know,
- 49:48Speaker 22: they love litigation, but they're insulated from it by applying
- 49:52Speaker 22: their insanity across the board, so they aren't particularized injuries.
- 49:58Speaker 7: I can't say, you know that guy I canceled my
- 50:02Speaker 7: vote out is that what you're saying, I can't point
- 50:06Speaker 7: to a specific and people get frustrated, Ken, because groups
- 50:12Speaker 7: like yours Election Transparency Initiative have to go into court
- 50:15Speaker 7: to litigate these things sometimes, and people are like, why
- 50:18Speaker 7: are we constantly having to do it? The gun suits
- 50:22Speaker 7: that you're involved in and the legislation that shouldn't have
- 50:26Speaker 7: been allowed to get through but did. It's the nature
- 50:30Speaker 7: of the beast to a degree.
- 50:31Speaker 9: But are people correct?
- 50:33Speaker 7: And the thing thought that too frequently we have to,
- 50:37Speaker 7: you know, sue to keep the government from trying to
- 50:40Speaker 7: escape their box.
- 50:45Speaker 8: No.
- 50:46Speaker 22: No, And you know I did a lot of that
- 50:49Speaker 22: as Attorney General, of course, and as you noted, I've
- 50:52Speaker 22: got a gun case going in Virginia where that's going
- 50:56Speaker 22: well actually at least the whole situation, my particular case.
- 51:00Speaker 22: But there's an awful lot of work we're having to
- 51:04Speaker 22: do to keep the government within its own boundaries.
- 51:08Speaker 7: Ken, and it's an Election Transparency dot org. I appreciate
- 51:12Speaker 7: your time as always, John writes in.
- 51:15Speaker 9: To four three four eight eight two four.
- 51:17Speaker 7: Two one seven, listening uh in Virginia this ruling for
- 51:22Speaker 7: the judge. You know we had the story. I think
- 51:25Speaker 7: we had it in the news the judge in Wisconsin
- 51:28Speaker 7: that snuck Sally out the alley from her courthouse rather
- 51:33Speaker 7: than have him deported because he wasn't a citizen. He
- 51:37Speaker 7: writes this ruling of justifying for this judge that assisted
- 51:41Speaker 7: an illegal to avoid federal agents as just another example
- 51:45Speaker 7: of the two tiered justice system. If it had been
- 51:47Speaker 7: you or I that interfered with federal law enforcement of
- 51:52Speaker 7: any kind, our ass would be in jail, gee, probably
- 51:55Speaker 7: faster than you can say January sixth. And that's the problem,
- 52:00Speaker 7: is that because we liked what she did, or at
- 52:03Speaker 7: least you know, the progressives in you know that appointed
- 52:07Speaker 7: judges or are afraid of being seen to stand up
- 52:11Speaker 7: against somebody who's just looking.
- 52:13Speaker 9: For they're just looking for a better life.
- 52:15Speaker 7: Man, and they're winding up as a permanent underclass here
- 52:21Speaker 7: in the United States. It's frightening and it's sad, and
- 52:24Speaker 7: it's debasing, and we're allowing for it. And this judge
- 52:31Speaker 7: should be immediately impeached because she has shown that she
- 52:35Speaker 7: has no respect for the law. Gee, you think a
- 52:37Speaker 7: judge should have some respect for the law. There is
- 52:41Speaker 7: Sheriff Viewford te Justice when we need them more. From
- 52:44Speaker 7: Freedom Fest tomorrow morning here in Las Vegas. So long
