• 0:02
  Speaker 1: We'll do it making mornings great again. Well, the first
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: thing today on the Tunk Median actor Thomas, we'll do
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: it lot.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: Thank you for joining us here, and it's an honor
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: to be with you each and every morning here. You know,
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: just the other day we were talking with state senator
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: was going to try to win a US Senate seed
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: stepping out for family health issues. But we got into
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: the subject of just what we were talking about. Our
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: wish for the new year, UH is to see people
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: actually outside of morning radio where you and I do this,
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: and we don't seem to have the fear of retribution
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: for pointing out the issues that we see suit up
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: in a Republican party, at least because it doesn't seem
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: like they're interested in the Democratic Party. Bryce Reeves kind
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: of laid out what's happening in these states.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: It's a difficult task to ask people to give up
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: their lives and step forward into the breach.
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: And it's all consumed and that's a tough task. And
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: then when you've got these consultants that are out there
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: pitching other ideas and telling them different things, it.
• 1:24
  Speaker 5: Makes it difficult.
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: So I think there has to be reformed there I
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: think there has to be reforming the party.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: I think, and that's the thing, is who's running the party.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: And that became a bigger abstract issue both here in
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: Virginia and New Jersey, and we're seeing it in Indianapolis.
• 1:43
  Speaker 5: And is it party?
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: And one of the things one of these little tangents
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: that sometimes I throw out there, but I truly believe
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: with all my heart. When George Mason wrote the Bill
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: of Rights, the very first one, the very most important
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: thing he felt needed to be in the US Constitution
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: to protect the individual citizens were small congressional districts. The
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: very first amendment in the Bill of Rights, as proposed,
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: would limit the size of a member of US House
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: of Representatives district to fifty thousand people. And think about
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: all the different political parties and all the different and
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: how much harder it would be to have one of
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: these intractable machine type politic operations going on if you
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: had to have one for every fifty thousand citizens. Think
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: about it for a minute and think about the opportunities
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: to actually change the narrative. It becomes greater, not lesser,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: if you go with that presentation. It's just one of
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: the things that we've allowed to be worn away from
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: the finish of our great piece of furniture known as
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: the United States, and we need to repolish it and
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: bring back the luster that it used to have, where
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: the individual felt represented and were generally speaking left alone
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: to do their business. Get further into that thought with
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: you at four three four eight A two four to
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: two one seven Our first things, though, Jack Smith admitted
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: that judges were not told that his team was seizing
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: phone records of Republican congressmen when he was asked when
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: they were asked to sign off on non disclosure orders
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: for associated subpoenas. According to a transcript of the ex
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: Special Council's deposition obtained and published this morning by The
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: New York Post, Smith told members of the House Judiciary
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Committee that keeping the subpoenas, which were part of the
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: FBI's investigation into what they alleged was twenty twenty election interference, hidden,
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: was necessary to avoid a grave risk of obstruction of justice.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: European leaders are getting ready to meet in Paris on
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: January sixth to make firm commitments towards protecting Ukraine after
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: a peace deal with Russia is finally broker French President
• 4:31

• 4:35

• 4:47
  Speaker 2: dropping for now the push to send National Guard troops
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: to Chicago, Los Angeles, and Portland to help with law
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: enforcement operations there. He said, we will come back, perhaps
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: in a different and stronger form, when crime begins to
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: soar again. New York City has a new mayor, Midnight
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: saw Zorhan. Mom Donnie gets sworn in in an abandoned
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: subway station. Not sure what the metaphor is there, but
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: it's underneath City Hall. This is truly an honor and
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: a privilege of a lifetime, Mom Donnie said, and a
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: reminder that citizens of New York can't easily get to
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: City Hall to talk to their representatives because the subway
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: doesn't stop there anymore. US military said Wednesday had struck
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: five drug smuggling boats over the last two days, killing

  Speaker 2: in the morning, with hundreds of people still in the

  Speaker 8: Considered by most Optimized curcumin is one of the few
• 8:07
  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
• 8:18
  Speaker 8: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
• 8:22
  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 inflammation,
• 8:37
  Speaker 8: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
• 8:42
  Speaker 8: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and

  Speaker 8: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

  Speaker 1: Question First Thing Today on the Talk Media Network by
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Joe Thomas, the second most Famous Thomas and Charlottesville.
• 13:19
  Speaker 12: Your words that steal me step have a day?
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we didn't stop using it.
• 13:25
  Speaker 18: When the sun comes up drops a pet of discover.
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: Without the archist all the.
• 13:35
  Speaker 11: One that Joe's allies smile.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: He only yep, Joe, bless you for letting me be
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: of service to you this morning. Four three four eight
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: eight two four two one seven multitasker just like always.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: It's a text message hotline as well as a phone
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: call as well. If you want to, you use it
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: for either. You might have a little bit more time
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: on this New Year's Day than you would under normal
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: stress and pressure. I'd like to think you have a
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: little time, but it work his work, and there are
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: a lot of people working on New Year's Day. People
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: have parties and things like that, football games and things
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: like that.
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: So I get it. Got to get your work on.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: Because the bills don't pay themselves, at least unless you
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: talk to a Democrat congressman who will be like, don't worry,
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: I will make your life affordable again. And remember the
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: acronym make America affordable again spells.
• 14:43
  Speaker 5: Just saying.
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: So we were talking about, you know, how do you
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: do this if you're feeling more and more like the
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: uniparty is there and it's just rearranging the tech chairs
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: on the Titanic. And I brought up one of my
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: favorite points, which is that the Bill of Rights originally
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: had as its first provision a guarantee that congressional districts
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: would be no larger than fifty thousand citizens per and
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: it didn't get ratified because well, a' show, how am
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: I supposed to gain power if my district doesn't grow?
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: Don't you know? Growth is good?
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: I mean except at the cancer clinic, of course. So
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: even early on there were schemers in and amongst those
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: who were our founding fathers looking to feather their nest.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: And you know, but but if you had a Congress
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: that was more fragmented like that and more hyper local,
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: you could have somebody run up and say, hey, I'm
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: going to run for Congress. And if you made it
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: easy enough to get in there, regular people could start
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: representing people in Congress again. And they get in there,
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: and they would start doing things like not hiring all
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: the career so and sos, who are the bigger problem,
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: honestly than the Nancy Pelosis who plant themselves in a
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: congressional seat and never leave. Worse are the chiefs of
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: staff and legislative liaisons who know all the K Street lobbyists.
• 16:32
  Speaker 5: I mean it, like I said.
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: Bryce Reeves, the Virginia Republican leader, told us yesterday.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: Difficult task to ask people to give up their lives,
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: and step forward into the breach.
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: And it's all consumed and that's a tough task. And
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: then when you've got these consultants that are out there
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: pitching other ideas and telling them different things, it makes
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: it difficult. So I think there has to be reformed there.
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: I think there has to be reforming the And.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: Then people get mad when I play clips like that
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: and or be critical of why the Republicans seem to
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: not want to get in the game, and listeners will
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: get in my inbox and on the telephone they're like, listen, Joe,
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: when you criticize Republicans. It doesn't help because nobody in
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: the left wing media is ever going to be critical
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: of an AOC or a Gavin Newsom or Tim Walltz,
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: and so their voters just turn out. Nobody's ever dispirited
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: and sort of lay in the blame the shade on
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: shows like this, saying, well, this is why Republicans don't
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: turn out to vote, because we've been disappointed so many
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: times by Republicans and maybe we just need a better
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: class of candidates.
• 17:46
  Speaker 5: The kid that said.
• 17:47
  Speaker 19: The emperor didn't have any clothes on, did not like
• 17:50
  Speaker 19: the emperor. Niked no, the Republicans don't represent Republicans. Did
• 18:00
  Speaker 19: not Magno, Republicans not represent Republicans. And you know, if
• 18:07
  Speaker 19: Republicans want people to turn out, represent your base.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And that's what happened after the Tea Party movement
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: in twenty eleven. You know, people started to get frustrated
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: and they've said, well, well what are you doing?
• 18:24
  Speaker 16: Uh?
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: And the same is happening in Maga.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: And now we're getting all the posers and the and
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: the pretenders out there saying, I'm Maga, you're Maga. You
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: know you're not Maga. I'm MAGA. And I'll tell you
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: who what't maga is. It's with apologies to John Roberts,
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: I'm sure he wants to keep his name out my mouth.
• 18:42
  Speaker 5: Uh, but you know he's right.
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: The Constitution is the thing, and it's a bigger deal
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: than a two word slogan or a ten word answer
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: like debate prep teaches you.
• 18:53
  Speaker 20: So you're in Virginia where Republicans in the state legislature
• 18:58
  Speaker 20: are in the minority. I'm an Alibi Ama where we
• 19:01
  Speaker 20: have the vast majority. So how would Republican stuff just
• 19:07
  Speaker 20: passes right through our legislature?
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: Right? No, it doesn't.
• 19:12
  Speaker 21: It doesn't do much better here than it does there.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: And and please please tell us because yeah, I was
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: talking about this yesterday. You know, Republicans in the minority
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: need to take a lesson from how Democrats act in
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: the minority, whether it's Hakeem Jeffries or your guys there
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: in Alabama. They they they govern almost more than the
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: majority party does.
• 19:37
  Speaker 21: Yes, you know, put your big boy pants on and
• 19:43
  Speaker 21: go play the game and bring us home some w's
• 19:46
  Speaker 21: and we'll turn out. Just Bob, I am.
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: I'm only earning my half.
• 19:57
  Speaker 7: All you care about is money.
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: It deserves a better classic.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna give it drum four three four eight A
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: two four to two one seven because I don't know
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: if you've ever had a friend that's gotten into trouble, drugs, alcohol, gambling,
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: whatever it Maybe maybe they've found themselves in an abusive relationship.
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: Whatever it may be. And I know you're looking at
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: the radio saying, why does this have to do with politics?
• 20:30
  Speaker 5: What does this have to do with Trump?
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: No, it doesn't specifically, it's it's a bigger abstract. Because
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: I'm not a PR firm. A lot of the folks
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: who purport to be independent journalists and generally just say
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: good things about the do gooders for and I'd love
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: to say it's a virus that has corrupted them all.
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: Most of them couldn't rub two thoughts together to get
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: a warm stick because they're busy trying to meet a deadline,
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: get content, and it's all just stationed to station stuff.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: So they're not thinking that deeply about it. They're thinking, well,
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: this guy says he wants to help. My viewers want
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: people who are going to help them. That's a win
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: for me. And that's how they wind up being co
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: opted by this narrative. Oh yeah, yeah, there are some
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: who are evil durers, as President Bush the second said,
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: the evil durers, But for the most part, people who
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: are complicit to the left are only doing it because
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: the left has some pretty good marketing firms. You know,
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: the same ones who managed to get Hamas rebranded as
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: a marginalized community. The game is hard. Put a helmet on.
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: I'm here about you, not some political party. They can
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: pay a pr firm, that's what they want.

• 24:31
  Speaker 8: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,

  Speaker 1: Putting the radio on is the first thing today. I
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: drink Doctor Pepper and a prouder but out of an
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: original crowd.
• 28:22
  Speaker 12: You look around these days.
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: Original wants to be a doctor. He is a maga.
• 28:32
  Speaker 5: Be a maga to.
• 28:37
  Speaker 24: Give you doctor pepper, Pepper two, be a Pepper, doctor Pember.
• 28:42
  Speaker 5: Kind of like what it's like these days.
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: Everyone everyone wants to know, you know, what is the
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: DNA of maga? And and we've allowed the left to
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: do this. The left it in their Olinski. We still
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: have Olinsky's rules out somewhere. Uh oh here, yeah, thank you.
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: Ridicule Rule five of Saul better call Saul Olinsky. Rule five.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. This is why this
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: program will satirize for your protection more frequently than not,
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: and do things like play an old Doctor Pepper commercial
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: to make people flinch a little bit about the way
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: things are getting, you know, the Candice Owens, Mark Levin,
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: Nick Fuentes, Tucker Carls and I'm a maga.
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: You're not a maga.
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: I'm a maga because I drink maga. You're not a
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: maga because I saw you drinking some You know brand
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: X And well you've you've worked for the CIA for
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: your whole life and except for all the times I
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: really liked you, and then you weren't working for the CIA,
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: And it's getting nutty and it's only benefiting the Marxist
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: Marxists li in division. They're like the weeds that grow
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: when a crack forms in your.
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: Sidewalk or your driveway.
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: You get a crack in the concrete and then the
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: weeds start growing up through it. And it's debatable there
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: are certain places where the weeds make the crack happen,
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: and sometimes the crack has to happen and then the
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: weeds come. Ridicule is man's most potent weapons. So almost
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: from the beginning from the moment the first red ball
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: cap went on. They've been deriding MAGA as a thing
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: that they can marginalize and polarize. I think that's also
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: in better call Saul as well. Isn't that one of
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: the tactic Dragon Tulan. Keep the pressure on the thread
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: is usually more terrifying than the thing you were going
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: to do yourself. If you push a negative hard enough,
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: it'll push through and become a positive.
• 31:09
  Speaker 5: The price of a successful attack.
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: Pick oh here it is yeah, Rule twelve, very last
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: better call Saul rule. Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it,
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: and polarize it. Cut off the support network, and isolate
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions.
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: People hurt faster than institutions. This is cruel, but very effective.
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: Better call Sololenski rules for radical number twelve. This is
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: why the media and the left and the Marxists had
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: to pick on, you know, the slogan maga, the acronym MAGA,
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: And it's one of the reasons that on this program
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: we try to.
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: Remind you where.
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: MAGA comes from, because the idea of making America great
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: again actually comes from a nineteen eighty TV ad for
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: Ronald Reagan, and the ad doesn't even have Reagan in it.
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: It's just touting all of his accomplishments as the Republican
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: governor of California. And it wasn't even an ad about
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: blowing up the government or destroying the government or draining
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: the government. It was about, look at me, I'm really
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: good at governing here it is.
• 33:02
  Speaker 5: Come on, I had the doctor pepperin the price of.
• 33:04
  Speaker 24: Even a small home could be two hundred thousand, And
• 33:08
  Speaker 24: what about their parents trying.
• 33:09
  Speaker 15: To make ends meet?
• 33:10
  Speaker 5: Right now?
• 33:11
  Speaker 24: To stop inflation, we've got to put a ceiling on
• 33:13
  Speaker 24: federal spending.
• 33:15
  Speaker 5: We've got to.
• 33:15
  Speaker 24: Crack down on waste, and we must lower our tax
• 33:18
  Speaker 24: rates to encourage individual productivity. In California, where I was
• 33:22
  Speaker 24: governor for eight years, we went from near bankruptcy to
• 33:24
  Speaker 24: financial help. We gave the taxpayers billions of dollars in
• 33:28
  Speaker 24: tax relief, and we met the needs of our people.
• 33:31
  Speaker 24: If we're going to stop inflation, we must do it now,
• 33:35
  Speaker 24: not with bigger government. It takes better government. That's what
• 33:38
  Speaker 24: we owe ourselves.
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: And our children.
• 33:41
  Speaker 24: That's why I'm running for president.
• 33:43
  Speaker 16: Only one man has the proven experience we need.
• 33:46
  Speaker 24: Ronald Reagan for president, Let's make America great again.
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: There it is.
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: That's the first time the phrase enters the public consciousness
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: nineteen eighty. But the better call Saul Olynskyites had to
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: marginalize everyone in Oh you're you're a hashtag. You've been
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: debased down to nothing more than a red ball cap.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: You're You're like a character in a Dunesbury cartoon. And
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: so now you have this schism where everyone's trying to
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: use it as their own fulcrum into popularity. Come on, man,
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: we got bigger fish to fry than that. I understand that.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: You know, the big guys got to eat and bills
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: have to be paid. I get it. But we can
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: do this the right way. Americans are smart enough to
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: get it. Americans don't need to be pandered to, and
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: they don't all think exactly the same. Reagan's favorite point
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: about agree with me eighty percent of the time. You're
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: one of my closest friends. But this isn't the first
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: time the Big Tent has had everyone driven out of it.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: I was just watching a guy over the weekend say, well,
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: you know, the Big Tent didn't mean Nazis and white supremacists.
• 35:24
  Speaker 5: No, it doesn't.
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: But you know what, you know why political parties wind
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: up with Nazis and white supremacists in it because we
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: don't have honest conversations about nationalist socialism. Nazi has become
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: just like Maga. It's a cartoon caricature.
• 35:50
  Speaker 5: For anyone we don't like.
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: When we were in Conquered Massachusetts for the two hundred
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: and fiftieth anniversary of the shot heard around the world,
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: the parade that celebrated it was marred by one of
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: these no more kings protests, no more tyrants to no
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: tyrants than no tyrants now. And I said, okay, ah,
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: that doesn't trump is a lot of things. He's not
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: a tyrant. And then I went to Miriam and Webster's dictionary.
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: At the corner of Miriam and Webster, you would find
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: the definition in their dictionary of tyrant as someone.
• 36:32
  Speaker 5: Who stands in the way of fairness.
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: That's where we've lost, because years ago somebody went into
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: Miriam and Webster and said, you need to make that
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: a little less brainy, make that simpler for people to understand.
• 36:50
  Speaker 5: Dumb it down some.
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: It's how you get dumber population is you keep dumbing
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: down the curriculum until students can't do you know, the
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: basic arythtic. So how would they know if they're being
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: screwed over by the tax code? And every morning I
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: get up and every morning I believe in every single
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: one of us has God's gifts in them, and nobody
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: has asked you to use them because they pander and
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: they throw pablem at you. They say, oh, you will
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: send a government program to you. And that's the offense
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: to me. It, yeah, the financial ruin and the devaluation
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: of the dollar. But the thing that bothers me about
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: the nanny state is the nanny Why do we need
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: a nanny? Never minding the costs and the constitutionality and
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: all of that. That's all real, yeah, But the essence
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: of it is you're too dumb to get by without
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: somebody looking after you. And that's what pisses me off.
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: That's what Heading into a brand new year here I
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: am all bend out of shape again. Gosh, or only
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: three hours into a new year, guys, darn it.
• 38:01
  Speaker 15: At Hotshot Secret, we share the science behind common diesel
• 38:05
  Speaker 15: problems in their solutions.
• 38:06
  Speaker 5: For example, diesel fuel setane levels.
• 38:09
  Speaker 15: In many states, the setane rating and diesel fuel is
• 38:11
  Speaker 15: forty two to forty five. Most diesel engines operate more
• 38:14
  Speaker 15: efficiently with the cetane rating of forty eight to fifty one.
• 38:17
  Speaker 15: Treatment of hot Shot Secret Diesel Extreme will raise your
• 38:20
  Speaker 15: seatane seven points, increase fuel economy, and improve cold starts.
• 38:24
  Speaker 15: Due to a cleaner burn, there are less hydrocarbons in
• 38:27
  Speaker 15: particulate matter in your exhaust. This reduces the blockage of
• 38:30
  Speaker 15: your diesel particulate filter. Using Diesel Extreme generates eighty three
• 38:34

  Speaker 1: Joe Thomas, the second most famous Thomas and Charlotte's Bill.
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: So Ellen writes in to us, Gee says, guess the
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: Melbourne New Year's Eve machete attack didn't make any waves
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: in the press. The high The headline on the video
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: is wild video shows horror New Year's Eve machete attack.
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: I'm going to play. Do we have the clip? I
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: don't you know. I don't think they say anything. Well,
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: I mean, the guy's getting knifed.
• 44:53
  Speaker 5: But do we have.
• 44:54
  Speaker 12: Minutes to midnight? Machette madness on phones online on.
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: Street so matchette madness is about twelve guys who are
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: after one guy. And so I mean, is it, you know,
• 45:17
  Speaker 2: like the terrorist attack of last year where the guy
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: drives his truck into a crowd of people. No, this
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: is the video I'm watching anyway, not not an Australian
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: law enforcement officer. I but this looks like five or
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: six guys who have what is the Charlottesville police chief
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: call it a beef with the other one and they're
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: knifing them up and it's vigil and e justice, probably
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: driven by a drug gang that they're all or one
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: of two drug gangs that they're involved in. It is
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: a horrific attack. But I don't think it was a
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: New Year's Eve attack. This wasn't done because it was
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: New Year's Eve. This was because somebody didn't cover the
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: spread on what he was supposed to be collect. This
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: was like Jules and Vincent visiting Brett over breakfast. Do
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: you remember your business partner, Brett Marcellus Wallace. Oh, yes,
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: that's what it appears to me to be. I'm not
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: dismissing it. It's a machete attack and it's proof that, oh, hey,
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: we don't need guns to be horrible to each other.
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: Huh funny that. I'll bet you that Prime Minister Albanese
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: will do a massive machete buy back there too. But
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: it sounds not dismissive. It was sartily kids getting chopped
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: up with a machete. Pretty horrific. But I don't think
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: it had anything to do with New Year's Eve, specifically
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: in the security footage that I saw in there. But look,
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: I just looked real quick. Fourteen assaults reported in New
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: York City across the five burroughs. Not necessarily because it's
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: New Year's Eve. Somebody wants to steal your wallet, steal
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: your purse, beat you up, just for giggles, because we're
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: getting our our grip on our last good marble. Societally
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: is getting very tenuous. Oh I want to do with
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: remind And we brought this up, brought this up yesterday
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: as well. The pole, the ap Nork pole that came
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: out yesterday evening thirty one percent of US adults. Now,
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: did they verify that? Are they US citizen adults? I
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: mean that's pretty racist. If the Associated Press is asking people,
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: are you a citizen?
• 47:51
  Speaker 5: We want to take a survey of you.
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's just adults that are in the United States somewhere.
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: Thirty one percent of their surveyed approve of how the
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: president is handling the economy. That's down from forty percent
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: in March. March the last time they bothered to ask anyone.
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: In case you're wondering, it's January. First. I'm sure the
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: nork Center for Public Affairs Research in as in guard
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: is pretty expensive. Those orcs don't come cheap when they
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: need to march on the one true ring. But if
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: the last time you asked anyone was March, and now,
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: remember we've gone through a whole summer where the Democratic
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: Party got the Jesus of make America affordable again, and
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: nobody asks any of these folks. So what is it
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: that you've done that made it inaffordable? Do you know
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: she's the new governor of Virginia and she's a woman.
• 49:01
  Speaker 5: What have you done?
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: If you're gonna do all these things to make life
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: affordable again, I presume then you were responsible for making
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: them une affordable.
• 49:11
  Speaker 5: And I know that opens them up to.
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: Say, oh, it's the greedy OLIGARSI it's the property owners
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: that yeah, drag them out into the street. Let them,
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: let them disgorge their inner Marxists. They all want to
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: tell you how much like Zeyfad mad Money in New
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: York they are. They all want to tell you how
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: much they like Bernie Sanders they are. They see how
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: all the young people doedly follow Bernie Sanders around like
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: he's that creepy uncle at the holiday picnic. But the
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: issue of the Trump economy is the fact that he's
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: fixed things that have to go back. And I brought
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: up food. Food is what all these people are going after.
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: Food and electricity. And the funny part about electric bills
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: is that the leftists and the government control your electric
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: bill more than anyone else.
• 50:08
  Speaker 5: Oh, it's dominion energy, It's it's key Span. No, it's not.
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: It's the regulators that tell them you can't have any
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: power plans and then drive up the cost. Here in
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: Virginia ten years ago, five years ago, we signed into
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: this Clean Economy suicide pack with California, knowing, knowing that
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: at the time, sixty percent of the Internet traffic went
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: through Virginia. Now it's up to seventy percent because of
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: data centers. And you signed into a Clean Economy Act
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: that said we're going to shut power plants down. Dumber
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: than a bag of hair. And I know because I
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: have a bag of hair here at my house. But
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: I brought up one of the things being food production
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: and that it's a perilous for the president because they
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: have started making fertilizer the cheap, inexpensive way again. But
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: those costs have not trickled back into the service yet.
• 51:14
  Speaker 5: Now will they?
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: I don't know, does big ag does the big agricultural
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: firms wanted to? They feel like you've gotten used to
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: the prices and the shrink flation and all of that, because.
• 51:29
  Speaker 5: That's why they do it.
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: They do it because like, all right, you know, they're
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: going to bitch for a while, but they're going to
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: come back and buy the canopians anyway. But they have
• 51:40
  Speaker 2: begun using the haber Bosch process again to make fertilizer
• 51:45
  Speaker 2: with natural gas, which was what they stopped under the
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: Biden administration. And when they stopped it under the Biden administration,
• 51:56
  Speaker 2: that's when the price of food and everything started to
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: get really high. Littld fun facts that they don't tell you.
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: That's okay, they don't have to tell you. It's just
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: it's the nature of the beast. They're just trying to
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: win politic political games. But we're trying to tell you
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: what's really going on. And yes, they are making fertilizer
• 52:24
  Speaker 2: the inexpensive way again. Now it's got to get to
• 52:26
