  Speaker 1: First Thing today on the Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: Friend, have a good Friday to you and blessings of
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: this weekend, which of all things, and I don't care
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: how far in or from what angle you approach this weekend,
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: understand that there is something for everyone in this weekend.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: And I don't mean that in the Marxists we will
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: take from somebody and give to everyone sort of way. No,
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: I mean that there are the things that empower and
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: drive your life in this in this weekend, for anyone
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: wherever you are, whatever your belief structure is, And the
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: empathy that one feels when somebody sees somebody that's so
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: broken that they have you know nothing. And I think
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: of the work my friends do at the Salvation Army
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: going out to find those broken people, like that Carpenter
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: Rabbi from Galilee did two thousand years ago. What's it
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: going to be like in seven years. It's regularly assumed
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: that by the time of the Crucifixion, Jesus had aged
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: thirty three years. What happens on Good Friday in twenty
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: thirty three, when it's been functionally two years since this,
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: and think about think about how long you know you think, wow,
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: I worked for that job for twenty years, man, But
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: think about the people in your world that don't have
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: the underpinning of faith to empower them. I think of
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: myself kind of playing to catch the tail. And it's
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: not one of these revival meeting things.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: But as you.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Approach Good Friday, you maybe do it from a bunch
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: of different places. But understand, the story has something in
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: it for everyone, and that's the importance of it. And
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: I think I'm not a theologian, and I try to
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: keep the sharp objects out of my hand when we
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: get into stuff like this, but I think that that's
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: the point, and that's the power of it is no
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: matter where you are, there's something in the story for you.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: On this Good Friday, we will tell you what went
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: on last night, and we will discuss how it's impacting
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: you where you are. President Trump confirmed yesterday evening that
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Pam Bondy has left the Attorney General's office. Trump said
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: that Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche will serve as Attorney
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: General for now. Bondi issued a statement that said she
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: will spend the next month insuring a smooth handoff of
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: responsibilities to Blanche. She described her tenure serving under the
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: president as the honor of a lifetime, highlighting what she
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: called major public safety and legal achievements during her time
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: leading the Department of Justice. Congresswoman Nancy Mace, sensing an
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: opportunity for radio hosts to say Congresswoman Nancy Mace on
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: the Air, issued a statement saying she would welcome lee
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: Zelden and as the new Attorney General is that rumors
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: started to circulate around Washington. She took to social media
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: and said, if the reports that lee Zelden will be
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: replacing Pambandi as Attorney General are true, I welcome it.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Iran is increasing its military preparations as tensions rise over
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: the possibility of a US ground invasion. The country told
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: The Wall Street Journal apparently has a press office in Tehran,
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: that it's strengthening its defenses around key sites, particularly major
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: oil infrastructure and, as they put it, strategically important islands.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: I presume they're referring to karg Un. Security Counsel is
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: going to vote today on a draft resolution brought by
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Bahrain to authorize the use of defensive force to protect
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: shipping in the Strait of Hormuz from Iranian attacks. Meanwhile,
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: the US Embassy in Bangdad warned American citizens to leave
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: Iraq immediately, citing threats from an Iran aligned terrorist militia
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: in central Baghdad within the next twenty four to forty
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: eight hours. British authorities have rallied thirty countries to push
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Foreign ministers from the
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: G seven, not including the United States and Arab countries
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: are among the countries attending a meeting with Prime Minister
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Keir Starmer in London. Foreign Secretary Evat Cooper said they
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: are hoping that this will assess all viable diplomatic options
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: for reopening this key oil shipping route past Iran's borders.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: And those are some of our first things this morning.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Not entirely unlike mel Brooks in History of the World
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: Part one, we're going to get to play Caesar's Palace
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: on July eighth, and they love a mountain comic there.

  Speaker 8: Forty Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the
• 8:07
  Speaker 8: few bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
• 8:13
  Speaker 8: I'm 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
• 8:26
  Speaker 8: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
• 8:31
  Speaker 8: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 8:36
  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
• 8:46
  Speaker 8: in many instances make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
• 8:51
  Speaker 8: healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com where

  Speaker 15: the way Joey has.
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: Everything a dream do all the treasure said, needs no
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: one that Joe Zellies smiled.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: He all the eggs best be.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: Joe, Bless you for letting me be of service to
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: you this good Friday morning. You know there's always questions,
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: you know, why and and why is a good question.
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: And I don't think why weakens faith. I think why
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: strengthens it. It's talking to a fella at Seapack. Do
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: we have the filmmaker still from the Sea Pack. I know,
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: we're putting together a whole audio album of our time
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: at Seapack from the Virginia Institute for Public Policy Studios,
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: brought to you by the Heritage Foundation and their Historic
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: Sites program Historic Sites dot Heritage dot org. But he
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: was taking He actually did a documentary film about his
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: journey from atheists to Christian through science. He was an
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: engineer and digging in science, and little by little science
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: proved to him that God was real. And it's a
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: commonplace story and we can discuss. Don't think this is
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: going to be Sunrise sermon.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: Ad.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: We're going to get into the Pambondi story. We're going
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: to get into a lot of things that I think
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: are missing in our.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: Representative republic.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: But I think one of the most important ones is
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: what are you willing to sacrifice? There's the whole theme
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: coming up through Easter. What are you willing to sacrifice
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: for something more? What are you willing to sacrifice for
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: right over wrong?
• 15:28
  Speaker 16: Huh?
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean the hardbit is to figure out what
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: right and wrong is. And that's why I love folks
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: who try to pick and choose where they are in
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: and I get it. And there's a lot of scholarly
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: research going on right now in the movement of kind
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: of secular christian Esque communities, very similar to what Jefferson
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: did when he took the Holy Bible and lifted out
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: any references to an actual person named Jesus, beginning the
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: narrative that Thomas Jefferson was an atheist. And you know,
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: again all these things as I discovered yesterday. Lord only
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: knows what's going to be controversial, and that's okay because
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: infinite diversity from infinite combination. This is just our analysis
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: on this side of the telephone line slash speaker.
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: At four three four eight A two four two one seven.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: But the question I think underlying for everyone is what
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: are you willing to sacrifice? With no small irony. I
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: sacrificed almost everything good Friday two years ago, and I.
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: Didn't even intend to.
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: It wasn't like we were on some sort of mission
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: trip to sub Saharan Africa. I had just built over
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: thirty some years is a radio career built around the
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: idea of helping people, mostly the listeners. But I also
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: felt like I was a pretty good help to those
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: that I associated with, which made it hard for me
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: to stay with some of those places, but I thought
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: I had found a place where, you know, those folks existed,
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: and I wanted to help them be successful, secondarily to
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: wanting to help my listeners and advertisers.
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: So and then I found a way.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: I said, oh, we've come up with a way to
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: make it even better, bigger, reach more people. So we
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: began the process of purchasing a radio station. Closed on
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: that radio station, ironically on Good Friday two years ago,
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: and I remember the strain of getting the escrow and
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: all of this done because people wanted to leave.
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: It's Good Friday.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: I'm not staying here at all of five o'clock. So
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: we're in the bank and we're running around and my
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: employ lawyers, for whatever reason, the people I had been
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: working with that I wanted to partner with changed their
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: mind and showed me the door. So Easter Sunday came
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: and I was all of a sudden unemployed, and I
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: had lost literally a career on a business level, on
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: an income level, I had lost everything. I hadn't lost
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: nearly what that carpenter Rabbi from Galilee had lost, or
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: had he lost it, had he gained it had we
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: all gained it in the sacrifice. Just let that rattle
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: around in your head for a little bit this morning.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Stir it around, see how it interacts with the other
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: chemicals in there. Meanwhile, back to the ranch where you
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: tune in here saying.
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: What the hell?
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: What happened to the radio stations supposed to be a
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: talk radio show about the news of the day. I
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: want to hear about Pam bond and why she's out.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: There is a working theory that President Trump likes to
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: reward people who are loyal to him. And this isn't
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: just hater's got to hate saying, oh, Trump just wants
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: to be surrounded by sickovins. I think President Trump wants
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: to very much so reward people that have helped him.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: And it's not that Pam Bondy hadn't been an attorney
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: general somewhere before. Oh y'all in Florida know that. So
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: it wasn't like he hired somebody who had been a
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: radio show host to become Attorney General of the United States.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: It was just watching Newsmax last night.
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: That you know. It's just this is like the worst
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: job in the world.
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: Who was it to Harvard guy pulled me the video
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: off to get it because he made some very interesting
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: points about how being attorney general in the United States
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: is just the worst job in the world and you
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: almost can't win. Part of it is And if I
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: may insert some governmental pedantics into this, the original construct
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: of the Attorney General's office was to review for Congress
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: proposed legislation and report to them on its relative potential
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: for being found unconstitutional. That's what the Attorney General's office
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: was set up for. And if you go to a
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: lot of other states, that's what their attorney general's office is.
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: Is technically the lawyer for the citizens, protecting them again
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: unconstitutional legislation, supposedly unless they're a leftists, and then it's
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: helping the General Assembly right unconstitutional legislation that will, you know,
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: sneak through a loophole somewhere.
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, was she.
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: The victim of unrealistic expectation leading to the appearance of
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: the inability to get things done because law is a
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: weird thing. You could say, I want something and I
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: lost a court case partially anyway, very similar to what
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: the UVA quarterback just had. As as a matter of fact,
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: in front of the same judge the UVA quarterback was
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: in front of. But I lost a good bit of
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: a case, even though I didn't feel like I was wrong,
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: because the law said some fairly least specific thing.

  Speaker 1: First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 28:19
  Speaker 20: In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by
• 28:23
  Speaker 20: two separate and equally important groups, the police who investigate
• 28:26
  Speaker 20: crime and the district attorneys who prosecute the offenders.
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: These are their stories.
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: And with that the story it is Alan Derschwitz. I
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: don't know why I couldn't remember Alan Dershowitz's name.
• 28:39
  Speaker 14: First, Professor Rusher is great to have your reaction. Was
• 28:41
  Speaker 14: this a good move by President Trump to fire Pam
• 28:44
  Speaker 14: Bondi as the Attorney general.
• 28:47
  Speaker 23: Pambindy is terrific. She is a great lawyer, she was
• 28:49
  Speaker 23: a great Attorney general of Florida. And I think she's
• 28:52
  Speaker 23: got gabum wrap on the Epstein matter.
• 28:55
  Speaker 16: There is list.
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: It's a liston by the way, he is Epstein's lawyer
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: and people who have been accused.
• 29:00
  Speaker 23: It's a list that the FBI has. I know who's
• 29:03
  Speaker 23: on the list. I've seen the list.
• 29:06
  Speaker 16: And and and she was right to say it was
• 29:08
  Speaker 16: a list.
• 29:09
  Speaker 23: But but it wasn't a list prepared by Jeffrey Epstein.
• 29:13
  Speaker 23: It wasn't a formal list. It was a list of
• 29:15
  Speaker 23: people who made accusations. Many people know who's on the list.
• 29:20
  Speaker 23: There are a lot of prominent people on the list,
• 29:22
  Speaker 23: many of them falsely accused. I don't know whether any
• 29:24
  Speaker 23: of the truthfully accused, So I think she's getting a
• 29:27
  Speaker 23: bum wrapped on the Epstein thing. But on the on
• 29:30
  Speaker 23: the hand, everybody has been mistreated by the media on Epstein.
• 29:35
  Speaker 16: You know, Epstein has become a new McCarthyism.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: And by the way, I want to thank you Alan
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: for being the only other person I've ever heard actually
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: make that connection, except the host of First Thing Today
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: by Joe Thomas, who, of course humility prohibits me from
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: saying anything more about it.
• 29:54
  Speaker 23: It's not surprised interesting there have been people who have
• 29:57
  Speaker 23: lost their jobs. I think America loses by not having Pambodny,
• 30:01
  Speaker 23: But the other people who are now thought of as
• 30:03
  Speaker 23: possible replacements, I know them as well. They are good people,
• 30:07
  Speaker 23: and I pity them because the attorney general is the
• 30:10
  Speaker 23: worst job in the world. I don't know why anybody
• 30:13
  Speaker 23: would possibly ever take that job. It's a schizophrenic job.
• 30:17
  Speaker 23: Nobody can perform it because the president.
• 30:20
  Speaker 16: Thinks the job is to be loyal to the president.
• 30:22
  Speaker 23: The tradition is to be loyal to the rule of
• 30:25
  Speaker 23: law and not to take advice and isident as one
• 30:28
  Speaker 23: of your previous guests says, I've written about this now
• 30:30
  Speaker 23: for twenty years.
• 30:31
  Speaker 16: There should be two jobs.
• 30:32
  Speaker 23: One the Minister of Justice, who is a cabinet member
• 30:35
  Speaker 23: whose job it is to help the president, and the
• 30:38
  Speaker 23: other the Director of Public Prosecution, whose job it is
• 30:41
  Speaker 23: to be completely separate, not to take any orders from
• 30:44
  Speaker 23: the president.
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: That's Alan Dershowitz yesterday talking to Newsmacs TV there. And
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: it's an interesting thought because, as I said, not to
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: be governmentally pedantic about it, but the attorney General, as
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: per the US Constitution, is supposed to be Congress's lawyer.
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: It's supposed to be the way.
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: The White House has the White House Counsel's office, so
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: the president can go to and call his White House
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: counsel and say I'm looking to do this. There's this
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: buttoned up. Congress had that too. It was called the
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: attorney general in the founding of this nation. So somebody
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: in the House of Representatives would say, I'm going to
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: have a bill that outlaws radio or something, and the
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: Attorney General would knock on their door and say, yeah, no,
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: that's not going to make it. And the point was
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: that this would save the people from having to go
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: and fight these unjust ministrations through the court system. And
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: that's a bigger thing that we've lost. And I want
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: to poke around that. But doctor Clark is on the
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: phone with this good Friday morning. Good Friday to you,
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: doctor Clark. How are you doing this morning, sir?
• 32:00
  Speaker 22: I'm all good.
• 32:01
  Speaker 24: Jill. So you mentioned you'd get the Pam Bondy and
• 32:06
  Speaker 24: then you said what are you willing to sacrifice? And
• 32:08
  Speaker 24: what immediately came to my mind was Pam Bondy.
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: So tough crowd. It's a tough crowd, I tell you, yeah.
• 32:19
  Speaker 24: She was an attorney general for Florida. And always remember
• 32:22
  Speaker 24: to never forget that. The local prosecutor said that George
• 32:28
  Speaker 24: Zimmerman self defense and Pam Bondy appointed a special persecutor
• 32:34
  Speaker 24: to go.
• 32:35
  Speaker 16: After him for political expediency.
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: And let's not forget the Nicholas Cruz stuff too.
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, you know, you know, and.
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: In the public administration of the office, and we call
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: our red flag Pam here, and we have for some
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: time because it's her. Administration of the Office of Attorney
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: General has been much more along the lines of let's
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: calm the public down, let's do what the public wants,
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: not what's legal. And there's I guess there's an efficacy
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: to it. I compare her to a guy like Ken Couchinelli,
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: who for four years was trying to make sure the
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: government was living within the laws and getting excoriated for
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: it for being some sort of you know, Tea Party nutcase,
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: when all he wanted to do was make sure the
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: government didn't get outside of its authorities. Pambondi was just
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: the opposite, it seems. In Florida. And you guys tell
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: me down there in Largo, or in Daytona, or in
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: you know, Treasure Coast, Saint Augustine, where you guys are
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: listening to us this morning, you know, could it be better?
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: Remember and and everyone is a creature of their place
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: and time, except for the fellow who is you know,
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: crucified two thousand some odd years ago. Pambondy and Rick
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: Scott were the governor and Attorney General of Florida right
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: after it stopped being a royal blue state. I mean,
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: until November of two thousand, Florida was considered to be
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: the ultimate, you know, New York suburb. All the New
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: Yorkers moved to Florida, took the blueness of New York
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: down to Florida with them, and Florida was a reliably
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: blue state.
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: So I think, you know.
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: To be abundantly fair with Pambondi and Rick Scott's administration
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: of Florida's government in that period of time, it was
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: still a state that a lot of people are like,
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: a is it a red stay is a blue state?
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: And much like Virginia was over the past twenty years
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: or fit ten years, maybe in Virginia's case, we decided, now,
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: you know what, we want to be a blue state.
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: We want to be we want to make California look
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: like a conservative place to live, whereas Florida.
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: Went the other way.
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: And now you have Ron DeSantis and the folks down
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: there doing their thing. So to be fair with Pambondy,
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: not to the point that Alan Dershowitz was where he's like,
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: you know, rubbing her feet with oil. You know, I
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: think she was a creature of her place in time,
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: still worrying that Florida was a teeteringly purple state at
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: that time, and so they didn't want to be firebrands.
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: But I mean, gosh, oh, man, laws the law, and
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: Nicholas Cruz had already been in custody how many times?
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: Don't tell me we need more red flag laws? And
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: we've got Oh my god, do you know doctor Clark
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: speaking of red flag laws? Not to be adhd here?
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: There is just been signed into law by the Governor
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: of the Commune Wealth of Virginia a law that says
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: the schools can now call red flag orders.
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: Did you know that?
• 36:00
  Speaker 24: Look at there?
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so the government can now call in a red
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: flag order on a citizen without any other citizen having
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: to be involved. It is an amazing place we live
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: in there.
• 36:11
  Speaker 3: It is what the country.
• 36:14
  Speaker 24: Back to PAM for just a second, you know, maybe
• 36:21
  Speaker 24: unreasonable expectations for PAM, because what we're going to have
• 36:25
  Speaker 24: to have with an AG is going to be a
• 36:28
  Speaker 24: certain amount of intescular fortitude. We didn't have that they're
• 36:33
  Speaker 24: going to have to be somewhat principled. And Joe, we're
• 36:36
  Speaker 24: going to have to have somebody that's smart enough to
• 36:38
  Speaker 24: understand that the DOJ is going to have to form.
• 36:43
  Speaker 16: An alliance with the D and I and the National.
• 36:47
  Speaker 24: Security Advisor, because there's no way that DOJ ever brings
• 36:54
  Speaker 24: the intel community to justice without those two heads working
• 37:01
  Speaker 24: with them. All yeah got to do is say national
• 37:05
  Speaker 24: Security and a Joseph go oh, you can't touch that.
• 37:09
  Speaker 24: As long as that's the case, do OJ is never
• 37:12
  Speaker 24: going to bring anybody to justice.
• 37:13
  Speaker 16: And here's the thing.
• 37:15
  Speaker 24: If Comy Clapper Brennan's Drock Page, Mary McCord, et cetera,
• 37:19
  Speaker 24: et cetera. If these people don't go to jail for
• 37:21
  Speaker 24: a very long time, Joe, two things. One, the behavior
• 37:25
  Speaker 24: has not been disincentivized. Yeah, well that's that's not the
• 37:31
  Speaker 24: big one, though, this is the big one. If they
• 37:36
  Speaker 24: don't go to jail for a very long time, those
• 37:39
  Speaker 24: of us that are engaged have no reason to believe
• 37:43
  Speaker 24: that our system is anything but corrupt. And at that point, Joe,
• 37:48
  Speaker 24: the Republic is in fact lost.
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: I think that's a that's a great point, because I
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: think there's a lot of expectation in uh Trump's supporters
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: and conservatives in general in America.

  Speaker 12: type two diabetes, heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a
• 41:10
  Speaker 12: million people a year. Even sadder, most of these deaths

• 41:18
  Speaker 12: healthier eating, and not smoking. Talk to your doctor about

  Speaker 12: if your doctor recommends lifestyle changes or medication, listen. The

  Speaker 2: Of Not Me, and you're talking about the other guys, right.
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: Thank you for letting it to be of service to
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: you on this good Friday. On the program that tells
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: you what went on last night. We'll give you our
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: analysis of what went on last night. But most importantly,
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: I want to know how it's impacting.
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: You where you are.
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: Terry writes into JT in the Morning Radio at gmail
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: dot com. You're too kind to Pam Bondy and Rick Scott.
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: They ran as tea partiers and then governed exactly the opposite. Well,
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: you know, and I wasn't trying to defend them at terry.
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: I just don't misunderstandify me. I wasn't out there trying
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: to say they were okay because of it. It's that
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: we have built up so much goo on this piece
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: of furniture known as the United States over two hundred
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: and fifty years. We keep using cheap ass furniture wax
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: on our expensive, important piece of furniture, and we just
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: sh and you know, eventually it looks awful. It's all
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: gray and grimy, it looks dirty. Have you ever seen
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: you see these pieces of furniture. Sometimes you go into
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: the habitat store or someplace around by the way. I
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: shop in a habitat store all the time because it's homie.
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: Don't got that much money. So but you know, habitat
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: store wherever you go in, and some places you know
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: they fix it up. But you go to yard sales
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: starting to get into yard sale season, except in Delaware,
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: where you have to get a special use permit to
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: hold a yard sale.
• 46:57
  Speaker 3: Tangents they all call your name.
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: And you go and you see this dresser. You're like,
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: it looks really nice, except it looks grayish. It is
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: brown with a your r it's gray with a brown
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: undertone almost, And it's because of all the crap that
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: we use to you know, supposedly clean it. And you
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: get a stripper in there, not that kind. Sorry, Bill, Oh,
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: you got my attention.
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: Now, did you.
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: Get some some furniture stripper or some elbow grease? You
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: get that twenty grade sandpaper. You gotta be careful not
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: to go too far down. But I've used, you know, plenty,
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: I've stripped down furniture and what you see comes out
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: on the other side, especially if it's in good shape,
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: you'll get it. And the woods all still good, the
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: drawers are still good. Then you know it's just been
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: badly cared for. The finish is just bad. And we
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: need to scrape off all those layers of misguided governance
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: and then we can get somewhere. Because there's so many
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: things that were brilliant about the way this country has founded.
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: That just god in the way of the machinators, the
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: ones who wanted their own agenda, and they've been around
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: since the beginning of time. It was the reason the
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: federal government wasn't supposed to have all the authority that
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: it does because the founders, George Mason, James Madison, etc.
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: Knew that if you gave that much power to that
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: many people, they were going to start falling prey to
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: their corruptions. Doctor Clark's on the phone with us this morning,
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: and the concern I think is well founded is that
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: are there going to be rules, a rule of law
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: rather than a rule of loull And here's you know,
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: one of the minefields that whoever's the age is going
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: to have to face is that there are going to
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: be expectations of just like you said, purp walks, orange jumpsuits,
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: et cetera. Are their laws and this is going to
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: be the thing the AG is going to have to
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: do the best. And maybe Zelden is the right person
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: for it, because I feel like he can tell you,
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: you know, he's comfortable enough telling the American people, here
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: are the laws that prohibit this or allow this to
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: not happen, because there are people who are saying there
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: ought to be a law. It's the same thing we
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: see with these protesters, these no kings protesters protesting against
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: ice officers enforcing laws that they're very Congress people and
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: senators past or are unwilling to what's the word I'm
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: looking for, eliminate, I guess is unlegislative. You will and
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: a repeal, thank you, thank you. All of a sudden,
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: the word is coming. So you know, it's the same
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: thing with the expectations on these on these arrests, we're
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: struck and page et cetera, covered by not just sovereign immunity,
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: but some loophole within their guidelines the Paiza Acts. And
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: you look at it, and if you're not a lawyer,
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: sometimes you don't see the loopholes that are staring you
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: in the face. But trust me, they're all worked into
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: the cake. And and that's I think the bigger thing
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: that the next Attorney General is going to have to
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: do is going to have to spend an awful lot
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: of time explaining why if these people aren't going.
• 50:41
  Speaker 3: To jail and who.
• 50:43
  Speaker 2: And I believe that it has to be politicized because
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: the laws are written by politicians. So don't tell me,
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: you know, we can't politicize the laws of the land.
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: That's who rights the laws. And it's a stupid argument
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: in my view to say, oh, you're just politicizing law enforcement. Well,
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: who wrote the laws?
• 51:03
  Speaker 3: Right? It's politicians, Am I wrong? Doctor Clark?
• 51:07
  Speaker 24: H yeah, that's who wrote well supposedly that's who's supposed
• 51:11
  Speaker 24: to write them anyway, except they've abrogated a lot of
• 51:13
  Speaker 24: that responsibility, you know, just to re emphasize, if the
• 51:19
  Speaker 24: intelligence community gets to decide who the president is, and
• 51:25
  Speaker 24: probably a lot of people in Congress, et cetera, et cetera,
• 51:29
  Speaker 24: we don't have a representative republic that you know. The
• 51:33
  Speaker 24: Democrats like to talk about voter suppression. If the intelligence
• 51:41
  Speaker 24: community can manufacture votes and run operations, all of our
• 51:49
  Speaker 24: votes have been suppressed.
• 51:50
  Speaker 3: Joe.
• 51:53
  Speaker 16: It's all a sham.
• 51:54
  Speaker 3: I see your point on that.
• 51:56
  Speaker 2: It's good stuff, Doctor Clark has always I hope you
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: have the blessings of a good East or weekend. Maybe
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: we'll talk Saturday. I don't know, but if I don't,
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: the blessings of Easter to you and resurrection Sunday, and
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: thank you, sir, you have a great morning Resurrection Sunday.
• 52:11
  Speaker 23: I like the term better well.
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: And I've noticed that, you know, not as a tangent,
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: but that has caught on more and more Christians are
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: referring to Easter Sunday is Resurrection Sunday.
• 52:22
  Speaker 24: When the conversion took place. They didn't even bother to
• 52:25
  Speaker 24: change the name on Easter. They just kept it Easter.
• 52:29
  Speaker 24: We can talk about where that came from.
• 52:31
  Speaker 7: The borrow.
• 52:33
  Speaker 3: Go sir, thank you God, bless.
• 52:35
  Speaker 24: The rabbit is not in any of the gospels.
• 52:38
  Speaker 3: No, really, really, there's no holy rabbit there. There's no
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: eggs there.
• 52:44
  Speaker 24: Didn't tell us about the bunny coming off the hill
• 52:46
