Transcript
- 0:05Speaker 1: On both sides.
- 0:06Speaker 2: Amaze your friends here in first thing Today by Joe,
- 0:10Speaker 2: Thomas jew.
- 0:11Speaker 1: Ward said, steal me.
- 0:14Speaker 3: Day at least for work.
- 0:17Speaker 4: When the sun comes up, drops a pet to scoop. Nay,
- 0:22Speaker 4: Joe is everything. All the jas needs no one that
- 0:28Speaker 4: Joe's as smile.
- 0:29Speaker 5: He only AIGs.
- 0:34Speaker 6: Joe, thank you for letting me be of service to
- 0:36Speaker 6: you this morning. It's not who votes, it's not even
- 0:41Speaker 6: who counts the votes. It's who draws the rings around
- 0:44Speaker 6: the people and says you vote over here and you
- 0:47Speaker 6: vote over there. These days, everyone, every state in the
- 0:50Speaker 6: union's got redistricting mania because they are trying to herd
- 0:57Speaker 6: the people into the right places so that the people
- 1:00Speaker 6: get elected. It's what we used to do before the
- 1:04Speaker 6: Civil War, got to keep those minority populations down. The
- 1:10Speaker 6: Permanent Reapportionment Act of nineteen twenty nine, written by Dixiecrats
- 1:15Speaker 6: to keep majority black districts from happening. It's one of
- 1:20Speaker 6: the most insidious cornerstones of the Jim Crow.
- 1:24Speaker 1: Laws all out there all going on.
- 1:27Speaker 6: So I thank Tom for giving this primer into it.
- 1:30Speaker 6: But every state's doing it differently. Every state is trying
- 1:33Speaker 6: to usurp your voice in different ways so that it's
- 1:41Speaker 6: the party that chooses the voter. And it's funny because
- 1:45Speaker 6: the very people who campaign for it are the ones
- 1:47Speaker 6: who will say, oh, we need to get districting done
- 1:50Speaker 6: so that the voters choose the party, not the other
- 1:54Speaker 6: way around. Well, you know that's what you're doing. That
- 1:57Speaker 6: is what's going on with this, is that you got
- 2:01Speaker 6: the parties choosing their voters, sorting them into places where
- 2:05Speaker 6: they can be the most useful for them. Does that
- 2:09Speaker 6: sound like a representative republic or does that just sound
- 2:12Speaker 6: like a way to get your way? And I run
- 2:18Speaker 6: into this with people who are like, you know what,
- 2:20Speaker 6: I'm fine with the FCC commissioner targeting broadcasters because they
- 2:25Speaker 6: all went after Trump.
- 2:26Speaker 1: No they didn't, No, they didn't.
- 2:28Speaker 6: And guess what, at some point, somebody else is going
- 2:31Speaker 6: to be president and I don't want them targeting me.
- 2:34Speaker 6: And I know I briefly mentioned this yesterday FCC Commissioner,
- 2:40Speaker 6: and bless you, an email came in saying, hey, didn't
- 2:43Speaker 6: you claim that your FCC license for your flagship station
- 2:48Speaker 6: and all the stations is actually just a deed to
- 2:52Speaker 6: a piece of property to make sure nobody else uses it.
- 2:57Speaker 6: And they sent me a clip of where fccc commission
- 3:00Speaker 6: in her car said exactly the opposite said, no, it's
- 3:03Speaker 6: a grant of special permissions by the government.
- 3:08Speaker 1: He's wrong.
- 3:10Speaker 6: The FCC Commissioner perhaps is more dangerous than Pam Bondi
- 3:16Speaker 6: because he'll go after broadcasters. And I don't care who
- 3:19Speaker 6: what you say. The FCC license that we file and
- 3:26Speaker 6: pay money for is there to protect my property. I
- 3:32Speaker 6: spent a lot of money on the property for the
- 3:35Speaker 6: frequencies my radio station, my flagship station, and all the
- 3:39Speaker 6: stations on this network are on. People have paid big
- 3:41Speaker 6: money for that property and the FCC license and simply
- 3:46Speaker 6: a deed filed with the government saying no one else
- 3:50Speaker 6: in this area can use my property to broadcast from
- 3:54Speaker 6: the same way you would protect the private property of
- 3:57Speaker 6: a shirt seller or a burger joint. And FCC commissioner
- 4:04Speaker 6: is wrong, and he's wrong because he wants to use
- 4:07Speaker 6: the power of the FCC to go after people. And
- 4:10Speaker 6: there are plenty of people out there who say reprehensible
- 4:14Speaker 6: and actionable things that are lies, but there are already
- 4:21Speaker 6: systems in place to punish them. And I just want
- 4:24Speaker 6: to get this up. We've got a lot to get
- 4:25Speaker 6: into this morning. But it's one of those things that
- 4:28Speaker 6: if we allow Brendan Carr, because he's Trump's FCC commissioner,
- 4:33Speaker 6: to say it, because yeah.
- 4:34Speaker 7: You're gonna go after Jimmy Gimmel, Yeah, you're gonna go
- 4:37Speaker 7: after Tom Hartman, yeah, or jim so Well.
- 4:40Speaker 6: No, no, we can't allow that because at some point
- 4:45Speaker 6: there will be a Merrit Garland. And I've got a
- 4:47Speaker 6: story here leading our first Things that will tell you
- 4:51Speaker 6: exactly why. No, it's not a good idea because at
- 4:55Speaker 6: some point you're going to be on somebody's enemy list,
- 5:00Speaker 6: and that's what we always forget in this stuff. So
- 5:04Speaker 6: on our first things this Friday morning, Senator Chuck Grassley
- 5:07Speaker 6: released an April twenty two Justice Department memo showing that
- 5:13Speaker 6: then Attorney General Merrick Garland, his deputy Lisa Monico, and
- 5:17Speaker 6: FBI Director Christopher Ray personally approved FBI investigations into the
- 5:23Speaker 6: Trump campaign associates to obstruct Congress's certification of the twenty
- 5:28Speaker 6: twenty election, which, if you're checking your calendar, took place
- 5:32Speaker 6: on January sixth, twenty twenty one. Grassley posted the four
- 5:36Speaker 6: page memorandum on his X platform and saying it personally
- 5:41Speaker 6: approves that Biden administration personally approved the targeting of a
- 5:46Speaker 6: political opponent under the banner of arctic frost. President Trump
- 5:52Speaker 6: said that his administration planned to brief Congress in future
- 5:55Speaker 6: operations against drug cartels. He said taking on cartels on
- 6:00Speaker 6: land could be next, but he won't be seeking a
- 6:02Speaker 6: declaration of war. Senate Foreign Relations Chair James rish of
- 6:07Speaker 6: Ohi of Idaho said, why am I kidding? It's clearly
- 6:11Speaker 6: written Idaho right there. Said Thursday he had no plans
- 6:14Speaker 6: at this time to hold hearings on the administration strikes
- 6:18Speaker 6: against suspected drug running vessels off of Venezuela. House Minority
- 6:25Speaker 6: Leader Hakim Jeffries was pushed back against by Illinois Democrats
- 6:30Speaker 6: because Jeffries has called upon Illinois Democrats to redraw their
- 6:34Speaker 6: congressional maps. One General Assembly member said I think there's
- 6:40Speaker 6: next to zero appetite to do it, and another Democrat
- 6:43Speaker 6: lawmaker said, there is no.
- 6:45Speaker 1: World where I see this happening.
- 6:47Speaker 6: Meanwhile, Virginia's General Assembly is going to convene or try
- 6:51Speaker 6: to convene a special session on Monday to redraw their districts.
- 6:56Speaker 1: And those are our first things.
- 7:01Speaker 8: Let's see if something costs less a lot less, but
- 7:04Speaker 8: people are actually happier with it. That sounds like something
- 7:07Speaker 8: to look into. And that's meta share. Maybe you've heard
- 7:10Speaker 8: joining metas share can save you or your family up
- 7:13Speaker 8: to five hundred bucks a month, and that's huge, But
- 7:16Speaker 8: it's also true. People are just happier with it. They
- 7:18Speaker 8: love being part of something that reflects and promotes their
- 7:21Speaker 8: values and what they believe in. Meda Share works too.
- 7:24Speaker 8: It's been around for thirty years now and members have
- 7:27Speaker 8: shared more than seven billion dollars of each other's bills.
- 7:31Speaker 8: People love having telehealth and a huge nationwide ppo networks.
- 7:35Speaker 8: So yeah, really, you can save a ton and like
- 7:37Speaker 8: it better. Imagine being happy with how you're taking care
- 7:40Speaker 8: of your health care, whether you're self employed or part

- 12:56Speaker 1: It's on.
- 13:11Speaker 2: From the home of the First Amendment. First thing today.
- 13:49Speaker 1: So be careful of slogans.
- 13:52Speaker 6: A couple of emails already coming in on my suggestion
- 13:55Speaker 6: that we look at the original idea for the Bill
- 13:59Speaker 6: of Rights, which were make sure that your congressional representatives
- 14:03Speaker 6: no given time would represent any more than fifty thousand
- 14:06Speaker 6: people at a pop. And the slogan, of course, that
- 14:10Speaker 6: I'm warning you about is I'm for smaller government. Have
- 14:16Speaker 6: you ever heard me say I'm for smaller government? Because
- 14:20Speaker 6: it's a slogan. It's a slogan that means we leave
- 14:23Speaker 6: a very few people in charge of the very many.
- 14:26Speaker 6: I'm in charge. I'm in favor of representative government. And
- 14:30Speaker 6: so what the.
- 14:32Speaker 1: Slogan sounds great, it's just like zero. It's just like
- 14:35Speaker 1: low bid contract laws.
- 14:37Speaker 6: They they're ruination because they sound good, but they actually
- 14:42Speaker 6: do bad. I'll get into that in the moment. James
- 14:45Speaker 6: Lunk is on with us at four three four eight
- 14:48Speaker 6: eight two four two one seven. They're at the jcsgold
- 14:51Speaker 6: dot Com headquarters this morning, ready to help you invest

- 14:58Speaker 6: in gold or silver. James, good morning. How are you doing, sir.
- 15:02Speaker 20: I'm doing well, Joe, and gold and silver are down
- 15:05Speaker 20: just slightly so far this morning.
- 15:08Speaker 19: Gold is at four thousand and sixty five dollars.
- 15:10Speaker 20: It ended up having a big run yesterday, up about
- 15:14Speaker 20: one hundred bucks, but it's currently down sixty one, about
- 15:17Speaker 20: one and a half percent, four sixty four and.
- 15:20Speaker 19: Silver a similar story. It's down one and.
- 15:22Speaker 20: A half percent to forty eight dollars and eighteen cents
- 15:26Speaker 20: so far this morning.
- 15:27Speaker 6: Yeah, keep your arms and hands inside the roller coaster
- 15:30Speaker 6: until it comes to a complete stop.
- 15:32Speaker 1: Holy cow. But that's the thing. I mean, this is
- 15:35Speaker 1: why you buy and hold, right, This isn't this is.
- 15:40Speaker 19: Yeah, that's exactly right.
- 15:42Speaker 20: This is you know, we're I don't have the stomach
- 15:44Speaker 20: for the roller coaster, that's for sure.
- 15:46Speaker 19: That's why I really try not to pay attention to
- 15:48Speaker 19: the little dips and the runs.
- 15:50Speaker 20: Just buying over time, and you know that's what we
- 15:53Speaker 20: talk to our clients about every day. We just constantly buy.
- 15:56Speaker 20: Whenever you're ready, whenever you're pulled. Portfolio is ready.
- 16:01Speaker 19: Then you can just add to it, and you can
- 16:03Speaker 19: cost average in, you can get some at a discount,
- 16:06Speaker 19: you can get some ounces a little bit higher.
- 16:08Speaker 20: But ultimately, you're you're building your wealth and you're you're
- 16:12Speaker 20: building it with gold and silver, and that's the main thing.
- 16:14Speaker 6: That's it, and it's something that's always been there and
- 16:18Speaker 6: that's the surety of it.
- 16:20Speaker 1: So I appreciate that.
- 16:21Speaker 6: And of course right now you can do it a
- 16:23Speaker 6: little bit more easily than you could last week because
- 16:26Speaker 6: you're getting it at a discount, is what they say
- 16:29Speaker 6: in the retail establishments, right right, James.
- 16:34Speaker 20: Right for getting it for a little bit cheaper this
- 16:37Speaker 20: Friday than you were last Friday. So it's always it's
- 16:40Speaker 20: always a good thing to take advantage of while while
- 16:42Speaker 20: these prices last.
- 16:43Speaker 6: Well, you have a great weekend and get some rest,
- 16:46Speaker 6: because I have a feeling your inbox is going to
- 16:48Speaker 6: be full of orders from folks trying to get some
- 16:51Speaker 6: gold and silver over the weekend. But I really want
- 16:53Speaker 6: you to call them at four three four nine seven
- 16:56Speaker 6: nine coin and talk to them. I mean, just impulse
- 17:00Speaker 6: buying gold and silver is not a good idea either.
- 17:03Speaker 6: We want it to be a blessing, not a curse. James,
- 17:06Speaker 6: and you have a great weekend, sir. Thanks Joey too
- 17:10Speaker 6: at four three four eight eight two four two one
- 17:13Speaker 6: seven Yeah sometimes and go this email is great here. Yeah,
- 17:19Speaker 6: I don't know what kind of program you run. I've
- 17:22Speaker 6: never heard anyone else say some of the things you
- 17:25Speaker 6: talk about. The only thing that I've heard anyone else
- 17:28Speaker 6: ever say that you get into is this Convention of
- 17:31Speaker 6: State stuff that every now and then I hear Mark
- 17:33Speaker 6: Levin talking about and I apologize, I'm different than everyone else.
- 17:39Speaker 6: I'm this is this goes into all the folks who
- 17:42Speaker 6: think that there's some talking points memo that comes out
- 17:46Speaker 6: from the EIB network. Uh and you know Rush Limbaugh's
- 17:50Speaker 6: you know staff is still sending out to all the
- 17:53Speaker 6: conservative talking heads. That's what the left, That's what Arianna
- 17:57Speaker 6: Huffington wants you to believe happened. I look at the Constitution,
- 18:01Speaker 6: I look at the things that are supposed to protect
- 18:03Speaker 6: our individual rights, and I want them to be in play.
- 18:08Speaker 6: I don't want to fall in for these slogans like
- 18:12Speaker 6: you know, oh, I want small government. Well, small government
- 18:16Speaker 6: is what they had in the Soviet Union. They had
- 18:18Speaker 6: like three four guys all advising the premiere what to do.
- 18:23Speaker 6: Was that a good idea that was a smaller government.
- 18:26Speaker 6: Let me get folks, who've got people lining up here?
- 18:28Speaker 1: Good morning? Who's this?
- 18:31Speaker 21: Hi?
- 18:31Speaker 19: This is Nancy?
- 18:32Speaker 22: How are you Joe?
- 18:33Speaker 1: Is this Nancy with the Convention of State's grassroots activists
- 18:36Speaker 1: that I know?
- 18:38Speaker 22: And it is guilty?
- 18:40Speaker 1: Is charge?
- 18:41Speaker 6: Hang on one second, because I got callers ahead of
- 18:43Speaker 6: you here. Good morning, you're on the air, first thing
- 18:45Speaker 6: this morning with Joe Thomas.
- 18:47Speaker 1: Who's this.
- 18:49Speaker 5: Clark?
- 18:50Speaker 1: Hey, doctor Clark. Okay, what's up on your mind this morning? Sir?
- 18:55Speaker 23: And y'all got it going on a firm Virginia right now.
- 18:58Speaker 1: So fart up.
- 19:01Speaker 23: Yesterday's episode of Deep Speculations with Joe and Clark, we
- 19:07Speaker 23: discussed that the left's leadership. While the left's leadership needs
- 19:12Speaker 23: the base to be in a constant state of agitation,
- 19:17Speaker 23: it is quite possible, if not likely, the progressive base
- 19:20Speaker 23: itself needs to be agitated. And then we discussed just
- 19:27Speaker 23: a little bit about how Olenski's rules for radicals touched
- 19:30Speaker 23: on this.
- 19:32Speaker 1: I've been thinking about.
- 19:33Speaker 24: That, Joe.
- 19:34Speaker 1: Okay, you know Olenski's rule.
- 19:37Speaker 23: Number five is ridicule is the greatest weapon.
- 19:40Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it is.
- 19:43Speaker 23: I think what we need to do is we need
- 19:47Speaker 23: to constantly ridicule the agit prop used by the leftist leadership.
- 19:54Speaker 23: And while we're doing the ridicule of that, we will
- 19:59Speaker 23: be simultaneoubviously overloading the basis agit receptors.
- 20:07Speaker 7: Oh, I see, you will Babylon be their agit prop
- 20:15Speaker 7: or Babylon be a ties it, and that'll and that'll
- 20:20Speaker 7: give them, give them some fit. It will be like
- 20:23Speaker 7: the kids that were reacting to the flashing lights in
- 20:26Speaker 7: the anime cartoons and having you know, tremors and things
- 20:30Speaker 7: like that.
- 20:32Speaker 23: Maybe if we do enough of this, we can desensitize them,
- 20:36Speaker 23: you know. As an example, Joe, let's see, Donald Trump
- 20:40Speaker 23: announces that the Oval Office is to be removed from
- 20:43Speaker 23: the White House. He says it will be replaced with
- 20:46Speaker 23: an royal chamber. Say, there will be a great haul,
- 20:52Speaker 23: perhaps one of the greatest halls in history. At the
- 20:55Speaker 23: interput will place a raised dias.
- 20:59Speaker 19: He said.
- 21:00Speaker 23: There will be two very large chairs, one for Lania,
- 21:03Speaker 23: one for myself, you know, to say that particulars from
- 21:08Speaker 23: abroad as well as domestic subjects will be allowed to
- 21:11Speaker 23: come before him and make please. He further states he
- 21:16Speaker 23: would consider these please and grant boons where he deemed appropriate,
- 21:23Speaker 23: and closing, he said, I'll have to learn to speak
- 21:26Speaker 23: in the third person for you know, for example, stuff
- 21:29Speaker 23: like we're not amused, or let us consider the fact,
- 21:35Speaker 23: and we will render a decision in this matter.
- 21:39Speaker 1: Oh good stuff, doctor Clark.
- 21:41Speaker 6: I think I think you know this is what we
- 21:43Speaker 6: need to do because they they can't take it. They
- 21:46Speaker 6: they they every well, if there's anyone who takes the
- 21:50Speaker 6: Marxist seriously, it's the Marxist and it's they. You know,

- 28:55Speaker 6: Violent criminals commit crimes whether they're in jail or out
- 28:59Speaker 6: of jail. This is a University of Virginia study into

- 29:10Speaker 6: Incarcerated, they sure as heck aren't stealing my stuff. And

- 29:31Speaker 6: vote for us? And that's the commerce of it. It is,
- 29:38Speaker 6: it is if we allow you to steal things from
- 29:40Speaker 6: other people, will you vote for us? Actually, the will
- 29:45Speaker 6: you vote for us should be attached to anything that
- 29:48Speaker 6: the Marxists says, because that's all they want at the
- 29:52Speaker 6: end of the day. If we give you this money,

- 30:23Speaker 6: vote for us? Nancy for our friend from the Convention
- 30:26Speaker 6: of States. Must have heard me mentioning, you know the
- 30:29Speaker 6: Convention of States earlier, and all the crazy stuff that
- 30:33Speaker 6: nobody ever hears on any other commercially produced talk radio
- 30:37Speaker 6: show distributed by a network that's the only one that
- 30:40Speaker 6: I think anyone else ever talks about. At least that's
- 30:43Speaker 6: what the listeners are getting, Nancy, is the Convention of States.
- 30:46Speaker 1: How you doing, my friend, I'm.
- 30:49Speaker 22: Doing fine, and thank you very much for having Tom
- 30:52Speaker 22: Garrett on. I'm calling about well. I guess it was
- 30:57Speaker 22: about a half an hour ago, the idea that we
- 31:01Speaker 22: don't need to worry about something because we've got someone
- 31:05Speaker 22: or other in office.
- 31:08Speaker 8: There are two.
- 31:08Speaker 22: Things about the Convention of States. First of all, let
- 31:12Speaker 22: me explain what it is. We're using Article five to
- 31:17Speaker 22: call for a Convention of the States, which is the
- 31:20Speaker 22: second clause of Article five to amend the Constitution, and
- 31:26Speaker 22: the Constitution the proposed amendments would have to fall into
- 31:32Speaker 22: one of three categories. Term limits, fiscal responsibility, and reigning
- 31:37Speaker 22: in the federal government couldn't be You would be called
- 31:41Speaker 22: out of order if you proposed anything that didn't fit
- 31:47Speaker 22: into those categories.
- 31:49Speaker 6: And that's let me insert one quick thing here, so
- 31:53Speaker 6: that is this particular So if you go to Convention
- 31:56Speaker 6: of States dot com, that is what this particular campaign
- 32:00Speaker 6: to get to a convention is trying to do. And
- 32:05Speaker 6: the Article five is very clear on how it says
- 32:08Speaker 6: and they tried several times to address.
- 32:11Speaker 1: Slavery before the Civil War with Article.
- 32:14Speaker 6: Five, and it was knocked down by the same people
- 32:16Speaker 6: who didn't want to ever change anything because we'd grown
- 32:19Speaker 6: comfy with the way we are.
- 32:20Speaker 1: But you can.
- 32:21Speaker 6: I mean, if I wanted to change and bring back
- 32:24Speaker 6: that first amendment to the Bill of Rights, the one
- 32:27Speaker 6: about fifty thousand maximum fifty thousand people in a congressional district,
- 32:32Speaker 6: I could do it if I called my own con
- 32:35Speaker 6: you know. It's the idea of what I'm saying is
- 32:38Speaker 6: that you could have conventions on various things. It's herculean task.
- 32:44Speaker 6: I would warn anyone. How long have you guys been
- 32:47Speaker 6: working on getting the thirty four states?
- 32:51Speaker 22: Since twenty thirteen, so yeah, you had nineteen states, so
- 32:56Speaker 22: we're more than halfway there. But yes, you and there
- 33:01Speaker 22: have been more than four hundred calls, but we haven't
- 33:05Speaker 22: gotten to thirty four states yet. But the other thing
- 33:11Speaker 22: is being prepared like a good boy scout, well a
- 33:15Speaker 22: boy scout from the nineteen fifties, being prepared with when
- 33:22Speaker 22: we get to thirty four every state would no, let
- 33:28Speaker 22: me start again. What we're working on right now in Virginia,
- 33:33Speaker 22: what we proposed during the last session and during in
- 33:39Speaker 22: the twenty sixth session, we will be doing and other
- 33:42Speaker 22: states are doing this, also passing a bill that will
- 33:50Speaker 22: give the qualifications for the commissioner who is sent to
- 33:55Speaker 22: the Convention, how he or she will be chosen, what
- 33:59Speaker 22: qualifiationations here she needs, and on top of that, having
- 34:06Speaker 22: if the commissioner would go rogue, and this is what
- 34:09Speaker 22: people from all parties are concerned about. If he or
- 34:14Speaker 22: she goes rogue, what happens. And the bill that we
- 34:20Speaker 22: are proposing in Virginia says that it would be a
- 34:24Speaker 22: class five felony. I was speaking to you the other day, Joe,
- 34:29Speaker 22: and you said that it shouldn't be a class five felony,
- 34:33Speaker 22: or you were questioning that. The reason that I specifically
- 34:37Speaker 22: ask that that be put in is that as a
- 34:40Speaker 22: public school teacher, if I were to do Shenanigans with
- 34:46Speaker 22: my students on their state of their Standards of Learning tests,
- 34:54Speaker 22: I would be liable for a class five felony. And
- 34:57Speaker 22: certainly anything that would happen to the US Constitution should
- 35:02Speaker 22: have that same qualification that it is that serious. I understand,
- 35:10Speaker 22: don't fiddle with the Constitution.
- 35:13Speaker 6: I understand that and this is you know where I
- 35:16Speaker 6: you know, I think that a lot of people have
- 35:18Speaker 6: been concerned because they've heard stories. And one of the
- 35:22Speaker 6: things that always baffles me not to digress into an
- 35:25Speaker 6: abstract on the Convention of States, but I wish everyone
- 35:28Speaker 6: would take a look at it and understand that most
- 35:31Speaker 6: of the people who push back against it say, well,
- 35:34Speaker 6: the Constitutional Convention was a runaway convention. It wasn't called
- 35:39Speaker 6: to write the constitution. It's why Patrick Henry was against
- 35:43Speaker 6: the Constitution.
- 35:44Speaker 1: All these things.
- 35:47Speaker 6: Are irrelevant because an Article five convention could not have
- 35:50Speaker 6: been called at that point because Article five didn't exist
- 35:55Speaker 6: at that point. And if you read Article five, as
- 35:57Speaker 6: it speaks to how the several states can do their
- 36:00Speaker 6: own amendments to the Constitution, it specifically says that the
- 36:06Speaker 6: call for that convention specifically detail what the amendment is.
- 36:11Speaker 6: So you can't just say, hey, let's all get together
- 36:13Speaker 6: in provo, Utah and decide some constitutional conventions. You have
- 36:18Speaker 6: to specifically say I'm convening a conventional a state's convention
- 36:24Speaker 6: to pass this amendment.
- 36:27Speaker 1: And that's what you know.
- 36:29Speaker 6: And and so I know a lot of folks say, oh,
- 36:32Speaker 6: rogue convention, and you know, rogue delegates and things like that,
- 36:35Speaker 6: And I know that that's what you're trying to do,
- 36:37Speaker 6: is to address those concerns by saying we will now
- 36:41Speaker 6: have rule of law over people in their behavior. But
- 36:45Speaker 6: I also imagine the rule of the convention would also
- 36:48Speaker 6: if somebody brought up something, you know, it would generally
- 36:53Speaker 6: be you know, not approved by the convention anyway, exactly.
- 37:00Speaker 22: And not only that, the convention would run very much
- 37:05Speaker 22: like a state legislature. It's under Mason's rule of order
- 37:14Speaker 22: the simulated conventions were, and it's mister Mason from the
- 37:18Speaker 22: nineteen thirties, not our own George Mason who proposed the
- 37:22Speaker 22: second clause and the other one of the other misconceptions.
- 37:28Speaker 1: Real quick, we all have about thirty seconds.
- 37:30Speaker 22: Look, we're not proposing amendments. We're calling for a convention
- 37:36Speaker 22: for amendments to be proposed in those three categories. The
- 37:41Speaker 22: proposed amendments would happen at that convention with all fifty
- 37:45Speaker 22: states there.
- 37:46Speaker 1: Thank you, Nancy. It's Convention of States dot com.
- 37:50Speaker 6: Lots of states in our footprint have already ratified it.
- 37:53Speaker 6: But stay on it because they could decertify it just
- 37:56Speaker 6: as easily. So you have a great morning.
- 37:58Speaker 22: Nance, thank you godless.

- 40:59Speaker 28: Hi, everybody, and it's always a boy. Growing up on
- 41:01Speaker 28: a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
- 41:04Speaker 2: I'm not only in all of their.
- 41:06Speaker 28: Beauty and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic. Just
- 41:08Speaker 28: look at the birds who gather supplies to build nests,
- 41:11Speaker 28: or Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,
- 41:14Speaker 28: or penguins who travel up to five hundred miles to
- 41:17Speaker 28: secure food for their families, or bush babies whose impressive
- 41:20Speaker 28: jump allows them to navigate the trees and the wild
- 41:23Speaker 28: in search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared
- 41:25Speaker 28: by our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are
- 41:29Speaker 28: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
- 41:32Speaker 28: they also perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep
- 41:35Speaker 28: us safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of
- 41:38Speaker 28: whom suffer from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them
- 41:41Speaker 28: when there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs
- 41:44Speaker 28: have a variety of highly trained roles that contribute to
- 41:46Speaker 28: society and help those in need. So please join me
- 41:49Speaker 28: an American Humane and supporting our heroic working dogs and
- 41:52Speaker 28: all the amazing animals on this planet we inhabit together.
- 41:55Speaker 28: Go to American Humane dot org to learn more.
- 42:00Speaker 14: Oh Bruho's buzzed.
- 42:01Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, he's starting with the woots.
- 42:05Speaker 28: And now a speech.
- 42:07Speaker 14: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
- 42:10Speaker 14: art and brain.
- 42:12Speaker 2: Who's with me?
- 42:13Speaker 22: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and my
- 42:15Speaker 22: brain is saying when it's time to go home.
- 42:18Speaker 18: Somebody call me a ride.
- 42:20Speaker 25: Love that guy, me too.
- 42:21Speaker 17: Know your buzzed warning signs, call for a ride when
- 42:24Speaker 17: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
- 42:29Speaker 29: Did you know that more than half our household energy
- 42:31Speaker 29: costs go to heating and cooling. Energy efficiency isn't just

- 43:32Speaker 30: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
- 43:35Speaker 30: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased

- 44:11Speaker 2: From the home of the First Amendment, first thing today.
- 44:23Speaker 1: The FBI.
- 44:28Speaker 6: A QM production, Where's Quinn Martin when we need him?
- 44:33Speaker 6: Or from Zimbalist Junior. So I want to get back
- 44:37Speaker 6: to this Chuck Grassley post and the admission the discovery
- 44:44Speaker 6: that the FBI, at the direction of Attorney General Merrick
- 44:49Speaker 6: Garland targeted members of the administration regarding the idea of
- 44:56Speaker 6: obstructing Congress Congress's.
- 44:59Speaker 1: Certification of the twenty twenty election.
- 45:01Speaker 6: Now, the lazy people that populate my industry will talk about.
- 45:05Speaker 1: Overthrowing or overturning.
- 45:08Speaker 6: Election results, and what they don't tell you is that
- 45:12Speaker 6: that is specifically what the Constitution lays out in the
- 45:16Speaker 6: direction and the directives over the certification of federal elections
- 45:23Speaker 6: was that if an election was found the reason we
- 45:26Speaker 6: go through the process is if an election or electors
- 45:30Speaker 6: were found to be fraudulently collected, you could overturn those results.
- 45:37Speaker 6: And every presidential election prior to twenty twenty had seen
- 45:42Speaker 6: one party or the other call upon challenges to the votes.
- 45:48Speaker 6: Can't do it anymore. Didn't know that, did you? Oh yeah,
- 45:53Speaker 6: this was before the ink was dry. On Joe Biden's presidency,
- 45:59Speaker 6: they changed the law in Congress so that you cannot
- 46:02Speaker 6: challenge the results of any of the several states elections.
- 46:07Speaker 6: It is simply a perfunctory measure. Now on January sixth,
- 46:12Speaker 6: that they get there and say, yes, yes, we have
- 46:15Speaker 6: heard from our states, and here is how our electors voted.
- 46:18Speaker 6: There is no chance of Chuck Grassley or a Ted
- 46:25Speaker 6: ted Cruise did frequently. Josh Hawley or an Adam Schiff
- 46:34Speaker 6: or Maxine Waters. She was famous for it too, challenging
- 46:39Speaker 6: the results of their state's electoral count asking for a
- 46:45Speaker 6: recertification to go through the votes and the electors. This
- 46:51Speaker 6: is why political parties have alternate electors. See the fact
- 46:56Speaker 6: that the Michigan quote fake electors story. You didn't hear this,
- 47:00Speaker 6: did you? This is gosh, this is going back what
- 47:03Speaker 6: four months now? Michigan judge tossed the fake elector's case
- 47:08Speaker 6: out of court.
- 47:09Speaker 1: Now.
- 47:09Speaker 6: I don't know how much money the folks who had
- 47:13Speaker 6: to defend themselves were out of for defending themselves, but
- 47:17Speaker 6: the whole headlines were fake electors, pictures of them names,
- 47:25Speaker 6: and then to judge those I said, no, they weren't
- 47:27Speaker 6: fake electors. Of course we knew they weren't fake electors.
- 47:29Speaker 6: But the process becomes the punishment. But the process up
- 47:36Speaker 6: till twenty twenty one, when Congress said, oh, we can't
- 47:41Speaker 6: go through that again. And this is why I don't
- 47:44Speaker 6: believe Donald Trump had anything to do with what happened
- 47:47Speaker 6: on January sixth, twenty twenty one, because it all every
- 47:52Speaker 6: single last bit of it, every single thing that happened
- 47:56Speaker 6: on or following January sixth, twenty twenty one benefit I
- 48:00Speaker 6: did one political party and one political candidate only.
- 48:08Speaker 1: Because they stopped the certification.
- 48:10Speaker 6: Process and the Senate when this crowd perhaps jinn on
- 48:17Speaker 6: by two hundred and forty seven FBI agitators in the crowd.
- 48:22Speaker 1: We don't know.
- 48:23Speaker 6: They still won't tell us and tell that Denver Riggleman's
- 48:26Speaker 6: vaunted investigation couldn't find didn't even know there were all
- 48:31Speaker 6: these FBI agents. You'd think that would be the easiest
- 48:34Speaker 6: thing to get. Why would Denver Wriggleman have ignored all
- 48:39Speaker 6: those FBI agents that were assigned. I mean, it wasn't
- 48:43Speaker 6: even like you had to find that the FBI had
- 48:45Speaker 6: assigned them. And if you're working for the government, the
- 48:47Speaker 6: government says, we assigned these guys and gals to be
- 48:50Speaker 6: in the crowd and willful ignorance, corruption, manners of levels
- 49:01Speaker 6: of it. But up until twenty twenty one, the whole
- 49:06Speaker 6: point of the January sixth meetings of Congress to certify
- 49:11Speaker 6: the electoral results was to give the states a chance
- 49:15Speaker 6: to possibly overturn the results if they felt they were
- 49:22Speaker 6: achieved in a fraudulent manner.
- 49:24Speaker 1: It's the same.
- 49:25Speaker 6: Sloganeering stuff I was talking about with smaller government. I
- 49:29Speaker 6: want small government. No, I want representative government. If there's
- 49:34Speaker 6: three hundred million of US, I want enough representatives for us,
- 49:38Speaker 6: And if that means six thousand members of Congress, so
- 49:41Speaker 6: be it. I'd like to see them reign in the
- 49:43Speaker 6: federal bureaucracy, maybe actually put them in charge of the
- 49:48Speaker 6: the departments they are. But hey, maybe we could actually
- 49:50Speaker 6: get a budget out of a six thousand person Congress,
- 49:53Speaker 6: and we might even have other political parties rise up.
- 50:03Speaker 6: But if you realize why we don't have a representative government,
- 50:06Speaker 6: you realize it's because of race. It's because of racism.
- 50:11Speaker 6: And yet the party that claims everything that you and
- 50:14Speaker 6: I do is race based. They're the ones who seemingly
- 50:18Speaker 6: do all these things that are based on keeping the
- 50:20Speaker 6: black population down, including the Great Society and the Permanent
- 50:25Speaker 6: Reapportionment Act and dissolving the electoral process, which in states
- 50:33Speaker 6: like Mississippi and Alabama back in the bad old days
- 50:36Speaker 6: of Jim Crow, could be challenged for the way they
- 50:40Speaker 6: conducted votes or if there were poll taxes, the whole
- 50:44Speaker 6: point of the January sixth certification was so that a
- 50:48Speaker 6: Senator could stand up and say, hold on, we understand
- 50:52Speaker 6: that there were poll taxes being charged, or there were
- 50:55Speaker 6: poll tests being conducted at these black districts, and we
- 51:01Speaker 6: want to challenge the results of this election. So the
- 51:05Speaker 6: anti racists of the Democratic Party have yet again enacted
- 51:10Speaker 6: more racist or undone more things designed to fight institutional
- 51:16Speaker 6: racism in the country. Arctic frost. You know what color
- 51:20Speaker 6: Arctic frost is white. Just like the Democrat leadership that
- 51:27Speaker 6: sits there and tells the black community they're on their side.
- 51:31Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 51:32Speaker 6: They must leave out a few words because what they're
- 51:34Speaker 6: really saying is they're on your backside, riding you. And
- 51:40Speaker 6: it frustrates me. It frustrates me. You know when Garland
- 51:43Speaker 6: puts this stuff out and the narrative is, oh boy,
- 51:47Speaker 6: they're talking about overthrowing votes. Maybe the votes deserve to
- 51:53Speaker 6: be overturned. It was the whole point of January sixth
- 51:58Speaker 6: and the certification process. But we lose ourselves in these slogans.
- 52:04Speaker 6: It's what or Well warned us about. And I'm sorry
- 52:13Speaker 6: if I again you don't want to talk about this,
- 52:15Speaker 6: but This is a huge story again showing that the
- 52:20Speaker 6: Attorney General targeted members of the administration for simply doing
- 52:25Speaker 6: what the Constitution said. Congress's job was to do, which
- 52:31Speaker 6: is challenge the electoral process to make sure that funny
- 52:36Speaker 6: business hadn't gone on in the several states. It was
- 52:39Speaker 6: a final check and balance over things like Jim Crow
- 52:44Speaker 6: laws and poll taxes and poll tests.
- 52:47Speaker 1: They didn't tell you that.
- 52:51Speaker 2: My name is Bobby.
- 52:52Speaker 1: I'm a veteran and lost my leg to a roadside bomb.
- 52:55Speaker 15: My victory was going from a wheelchair to becoming a
- 52:58Speaker 15: weightlifting champion.
