Transcript
- 0:06Speaker 1: To detain and deport German, Japanese Italian immigrants doing World War.
- 0:12Speaker 2: The first thing today by Joe Thomas on the Tunk
- 0:16Speaker 2: Media Network, what do.
- 0:17Speaker 3: You think about the dog problem? And I said, definitely,
- 0:20Speaker 3: I feel we have too many dogs.
- 0:23Speaker 4: George said, steal me step a day at least for work.
- 0:29Speaker 5: When the sun comes up, drops a pet of the school.
- 0:33Speaker 4: Joe is everything.
- 0:34Speaker 6: All the jas needs no one that Joe's as smiled.
- 0:41Speaker 7: He only as.
- 0:46Speaker 6: Joe.
- 0:46Speaker 8: Thank you for letting me be of service to you
- 0:48Speaker 8: this morning here in the epicenter of international intrigue, as
- 0:59Speaker 8: the King and Queen tour the Commonwealth to see if
- 1:04Speaker 8: they left anything behind two hundred.
- 1:06Speaker 9: And fifty years ago.
- 1:07Speaker 8: They are coming to our neck of the woods, just
- 1:10Speaker 8: an hour or so north of our flagship station to
- 1:13Speaker 8: Front Royal, ironically named for their two hundred and fiftieth
- 1:17Speaker 8: anniversary parade, which is today at ten Eastern time. And
- 1:22Speaker 8: then they're going to go up to Shenandoah National Park
- 1:26Speaker 8: to celebrate all the displaced hillbillies that were kicked out
- 1:30Speaker 8: of their homes by the federal government in the day.
- 1:33Speaker 8: Huh oh, no, oh, he's talking to environmentalists. Oh, Okay,
- 1:39Speaker 8: now I understand it, because King Charles can only for
- 1:42Speaker 8: so long be away from his al Gore tribute tour
- 1:47Speaker 8: there as they will continue to remind us that we
- 1:52Speaker 8: don't have kings. And I checked again just before the
- 1:56Speaker 8: hour began. I was wanted to make sure that I
- 1:58Speaker 8: didn't miss anything. And I looked up, and I looked down.
- 2:02Speaker 8: I looked around. Couldn't find a single no King's rally
- 2:09Speaker 8: scheduled for Front Royal Virginia today. And I'm sure it's
- 2:18Speaker 8: got to be there. I mean, there's legitimately a king coming,
- 2:23Speaker 8: not even somebody who used to be a king. It's
- 2:25Speaker 8: not like Reziplab is there or anyone like that. No,
- 2:29Speaker 8: that was a bona fide king. And I'll bet you
- 2:33Speaker 8: Tim Kaine, Mark Warner and these folks will be hanging
- 2:36Speaker 8: around him, even despite benefiting and often marching in front
- 2:45Speaker 8: of these no Kings protests. Will Don Lemon be here?
- 2:48Speaker 8: Don Lemon likes to come to Virginia for our no
- 2:51Speaker 8: king's protests? Will Don Lemon come and protest an actual
- 2:55Speaker 8: sitting king? No, Well, you know, one could hope. I mean,
- 3:02Speaker 8: it would be nice to see some intellectual honesty, But
- 3:06Speaker 8: for our part, we do what we do for you,
- 3:08Speaker 8: which is tell you what went on last night and
- 3:10Speaker 8: our first things this morning. Justice Department officials moved Wednesday
- 3:15Speaker 8: on a rollback of gun regulations, which in many cases
- 3:19Speaker 8: are just superfluous, like the background chap law that was
- 3:25Speaker 8: changing the apocryphal gun show loophole. Iran's currency has dropped
- 3:32Speaker 8: to an all time low. If you think the US
- 3:34Speaker 8: dollar is weak, imagine having to have one point eight
- 3:37Speaker 8: million real to just get one dollars worth of stuff.
- 3:42Speaker 8: According to Harvard and the Harris Pole they commissioned, the
- 3:45Speaker 8: majority of Americans, despite unending press coverage and Tucker Carlson,
- 3:52Speaker 8: believe that the US airstrikes on Iran were justified. Fifty
- 3:56Speaker 8: four percent. Fifty four percent also believe the US has
- 4:00Speaker 8: the advantage in the negotiations to end these battles. President
- 4:05Speaker 8: Trump met with at very least the head of Chevron
- 4:10Speaker 8: at the White House, supposedly other oil company leaders, discussing
- 4:14Speaker 8: oil prices. The meeting was attended also by Chief of
- 4:21Speaker 8: Staff Suzy Wiles, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessen, and Witkoff, and Kushner.
- 4:30Speaker 8: Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz is still running very
- 4:34Speaker 8: slowly as the US tries to let through permitted vessels
- 4:39Speaker 8: and keep them safe. They've sent out a maritime freedom
- 4:42Speaker 8: construct through what they call in the state craft back channels.
- 4:48Speaker 8: US embassies calling on diplomats to press their governments to
- 4:52Speaker 8: participate in this flotilla to Manila, hoping to get more
- 4:58Speaker 8: shipping through the strait. The Supreme Court yesterday passed a
- 5:04Speaker 8: six y three ruling on Louisiana's districts, ruling that Democrat
- 5:13Speaker 8: clo Fields District, which the Court described as a snake
- 5:18Speaker 8: that stretches more than two hundred miles from Shreveport to
- 5:22Speaker 8: Baton Rouge, is an unconstitutional gerrymander.
- 5:35Speaker 9: That's everything, huh okay.
- 5:38Speaker 10: And that is what we have for you.
- 5:40Speaker 8: Are first things this morning here along the talk median.
- 5:43Speaker 8: If sure there's not a page missing. I think there
- 5:45Speaker 8: was a page missing. We're going to go look for that.
- 5:47Speaker 9: Please.
- 5:51Speaker 11: Every state is home to significant historic sites that tell
- 5:54Speaker 11: the American story, but not every site is telling that
- 5:58Speaker 11: story honestly and fairly. That's why the Heritage Foundation created
- 6:02Speaker 11: the Heritage Guide to Historic Sites. This interactive guide equips
- 6:06Speaker 11: American citizens with the tools they need to enjoy the

- 6:18Speaker 11: for families or educators planning a visit. It currently covers
- 6:22Speaker 11: over forty five sites in the thirteen original colonies, but
- 6:25Speaker 11: sites from all fifty states will be added in time
- 6:29Speaker 11: for citizens to celebrate America to fifty this summer. From
- 6:32Speaker 11: Mount Vernon to Independence.
- 6:34Speaker 12: Hall to Gettysburg and more.
- 6:36Speaker 11: Americans deserve transparency, and sites that steward our history faithfully
- 6:41Speaker 11: deserve our gratitude. The Heritage Guide to Historic Sites invites
- 6:45Speaker 11: every American to rediscover the places and stories that define

- 10:03Speaker 18: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type two diabetes,
- 10:08Speaker 18: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
- 10:12Speaker 18: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 10:15Speaker 18: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
- 10:21Speaker 18: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type two
- 10:24Speaker 18: diabetes and heart disease, and if your doctor recommends lifestyle
- 10:27Speaker 18: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
- 10:32Speaker 18: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,

- 13:11Speaker 2: From the home of the First Amendment. First thing today.
- 13:15Speaker 12: The last time.
- 13:16Speaker 1: The Alien Enemies Act was invoked, it was used to
- 13:20Speaker 1: detain and deport German, Japanese Italian immigrants doing war War.
- 13:33Speaker 8: Terry and Portland sends a simple text, Good morning, Joe.
- 13:45Speaker 8: Knowledge is good. That's right, the great motto of favor
- 13:52Speaker 8: College giving us the esteemed Senator Blue Tarski, who you know,
- 13:57Speaker 8: has certainly left a heavy legacy behind for Ilhan Omar
- 14:02Speaker 8: to talk about the importance of, you know, keeping and
- 14:06Speaker 8: honoring the spirit of those who fought in World War eleven.
- 14:14Speaker 8: You know, and we used to remember, we used to
- 14:19Speaker 8: have some fun ramping up President Obama when he would
- 14:22Speaker 8: wander off of his teleprompter, and of course he left
- 14:27Speaker 8: his teleprompter and his will to Joe Biden, who I
- 14:30Speaker 8: don't even know where he put it. We put it
- 14:32Speaker 8: in the closet with the auto pen. And I think
- 14:40Speaker 8: sometimes we ask too much of these folks. I really
- 14:43Speaker 8: think that we often do send the people we have
- 14:48Speaker 8: the least used for to Congress. That was, you know,
- 14:54Speaker 8: show of hands, who's got work to do this month? Okay,
- 14:58Speaker 8: oh Joe, you don't have anything to do this month?
- 15:00Speaker 8: All right, you're up in Congress. Then, I mean, if
- 15:02Speaker 8: you're not contributing to the community, why send somebody off
- 15:05Speaker 8: to it? Most of them are lawyers? What no ambulances
- 15:10Speaker 8: to chase? Are there too many lawyers? Is there a
- 15:13Speaker 8: glut of lawyers in your district? Madam Congresswoman?
- 15:18Speaker 10: I write the law, I am the law.
- 15:21Speaker 8: Oh that's right. And then of course, once you are
- 15:24Speaker 8: the law, you're above the law. And it's fun and
- 15:29Speaker 8: it's frolic, but it also is sad, and it reminds
- 15:32Speaker 8: us that these are not the sharpest knives of the drawer.
- 15:36Speaker 8: These are not people who have great skills to bring
- 15:38Speaker 8: their community. Their skill is convincing fifty one percent of
- 15:43Speaker 8: fifty percent to vote for them. And we'll wash, rinse,
- 15:47Speaker 8: and repeat heading into the midterm elections. As well, Marshall,
- 15:51Speaker 8: Patty from our friends at City Elders City Elders dot
- 15:55Speaker 8: org governing the city gates, trying to put morality back
- 16:00Speaker 8: into the offices where perhaps you'd remember that I I
- 16:05Speaker 8: is indicating the number two. Marshall, talk about you know,
- 16:09Speaker 8: coming up into the midterms. You guys are going to
- 16:11Speaker 8: be very busy trying to help folks get elected. But
- 16:15Speaker 8: the midterms are going to be daunting, aren't they. It's
- 16:17Speaker 8: gonna be tough. We know the environment we're in.
- 16:20Speaker 23: I think we got out spent what four to five
- 16:22Speaker 23: to one, just depending on which number is you look at,
- 16:26Speaker 23: and who knows about the soft money and the you know,
- 16:29Speaker 23: behind the pack money that we didn't necessarily see what
- 16:32Speaker 23: they spent on, right, And so we have a tough,
- 16:35Speaker 23: tough fight because again it's you know, the ballots written
- 16:39Speaker 23: as this is just you know, re establishing Rod versus
- 16:41Speaker 23: Wade in Virginia, and if you actually read the actual law,
- 16:45Speaker 23: we know goes much much further than that. And I
- 16:47Speaker 23: think if people understood, like you know, you're you're an
- 16:50Speaker 23: hour away from giving birth, the baby's perfectly healthy, and
- 16:54Speaker 23: then you claim to your doctor you're having mental stress
- 16:56Speaker 23: and you want to terminated. That is sufficient to terminate
- 17:01Speaker 23: that baby. And I think most people, you know, obviously
- 17:05Speaker 23: we have different stands in city elders. I think most people,
- 17:09Speaker 23: if the baby's perfectly healthy and can live outside the womb, yeah,
- 17:13Speaker 23: they would never allow that to happen, right, never. And
- 17:17Speaker 23: that's what the law does.
- 17:18Speaker 8: And it's unfortunately what happens when you rely on politicians
- 17:22Speaker 8: to tell you when life begins. Marshall Patty is done
- 17:25Speaker 8: with us. Marshall from City Elders of Virginia. City ELDERSVA
- 17:30Speaker 8: dot org find out more. But again, it's at common
- 17:33Speaker 8: grounds on Friday mornings starting at seven and prayer and
- 17:38Speaker 8: then breakfast and then discussion and things like that. What
- 17:44Speaker 8: is the mood after the referendum vote? You know, because
- 17:50Speaker 8: I'm sure a lot of the folks who are very
- 17:52Speaker 8: keyed into the referendum vote may not know everything that's
- 17:57Speaker 8: going on with the Supreme Court. But you know, was
- 18:00Speaker 8: there deflation amongst folks in the in the group after
- 18:08Speaker 8: the vote came in and so narrow? I know, I
- 18:11Speaker 8: sound like I'm one of those you know, oh well,
- 18:13Speaker 8: you know what it could have should you know, Hey,
- 18:16Speaker 8: we outkicked the coverage or whatever, trying to find a
- 18:20Speaker 8: positive to it. But I really truly think when you're
- 18:23Speaker 8: out spent four to one and it's a one point
- 18:26Speaker 8: margin in between the side that spent four times as
- 18:30Speaker 8: much as you, I think it speaks volumes about you know,
- 18:33Speaker 8: where we are. But talk about the group and their mood.
- 18:37Speaker 23: Yeah, I think I think, you know, when we started
- 18:40Speaker 23: looking how close it was, and there's some monptimism there.
- 18:43Speaker 23: We performed well, and you know what, a half a
- 18:47Speaker 23: million Democrats didn't come and vote because they couldn't, you know,
- 18:52Speaker 23: buy the lie that they were being given. They knew
- 18:54Speaker 23: it was wrong and they didn't show up, and that
- 18:57Speaker 23: that helps tremenously as well. I'd say the move it's
- 18:59Speaker 23: pretty positive. You know, we feel like we've already you know,
- 19:01Speaker 23: won the war. Now we've got to fight the battles
- 19:04Speaker 23: and so you know, we feel like victory has already
- 19:09Speaker 23: been had because of our faith. But but we have
- 19:12Speaker 23: to do our work on this earth and that's what
- 19:14Speaker 23: we're focused on. And so the mood was pretty upbeat.
- 19:18Speaker 23: You know, we were obviously not happy about it, but
- 19:20Speaker 23: we're like, all right, so that's over. We can't control
- 19:22Speaker 23: this what it's going to do. We need to get
- 19:25Speaker 23: going and start focusing on the things that we can control,
- 19:27Speaker 23: you know, the National Day of Prayer, right, uh, making
- 19:30Speaker 23: sure that we're ready in the next political environment coming
- 19:33Speaker 23: up here shortly. And so that's that's what we've been
- 19:36Speaker 23: focused on. And you know, once it's done, is done.
- 19:39Speaker 23: And so I feel pretty optimistic about us moving forward.
- 19:42Speaker 23: And I think the group's starting to work again after
- 19:45Speaker 23: maybe another week or two break.
- 19:47Speaker 8: Is this and I'm thinking about you know, how you know,
- 19:50Speaker 8: and where Christianity comes from, and the very beginnings, and
- 19:55Speaker 8: certainly it begins with the biggest loss of all.
- 19:59Speaker 23: And and.
- 20:01Speaker 8: You're facing somebody who's had way more money than the
- 20:04Speaker 8: Democratic Party, the Roman Empire, and the society of the day,
- 20:10Speaker 8: and yet victory was had. I think there's an important
- 20:14Speaker 8: message in there. And I know our friend John quiz
- 20:16Speaker 8: And very much better with this kind of stuff than
- 20:19Speaker 8: I am. But but does that make any sense to
- 20:22Speaker 8: look and say, listen, you know, we faced worse odds
- 20:25Speaker 8: than this for bigger issues.
- 20:27Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 20:28Speaker 23: One of one of the common things that we always
- 20:29Speaker 23: say is nothing's impossible, you know, with God, So regardless
- 20:35Speaker 23: of how dark it looks are bleak, and you know
- 20:38Speaker 23: I pushed back. There were you know, there's a lot
- 20:40Speaker 23: of people talking about, you know, sections of Virginia leaving
- 20:44Speaker 23: to Tennessee and West Virginia and.
- 20:47Speaker 13: The ve.
- 20:50Speaker 23: Yeah, and I'm like, no, We're going to stay in
- 20:52Speaker 23: and fight. We can win this.
- 20:54Speaker 9: We can win this.
- 20:55Speaker 3: To the polls.
- 20:55Speaker 23: We more effort, more better messaging, everything need to do.
- 21:00Speaker 23: We just got to do it better. We're not just
- 21:02Speaker 23: going to quit and leave, because you know, I think
- 21:05Speaker 23: that's that's a dangerous precedent. And so there, you know,
- 21:08Speaker 23: there was always those kind of theories and then I
- 21:11Speaker 23: explained to them and even if you could do it,
- 21:12Speaker 23: it would take years and years and years. Uh So
- 21:15Speaker 23: we got to stay and fight. Our kids are in schools,
- 21:18Speaker 23: our you know, our families are here. You know, all
- 21:22Speaker 23: these things are happening to us, and we need to
- 21:24Speaker 23: stay and fight. So oh yeah, we have that optimism,
- 21:27Speaker 23: that that Christian belief and and you know the other
- 21:29Speaker 23: thing is as bad as it seems and feels, We've
- 21:33Speaker 23: been in worse spots right as a country, as a
- 21:36Speaker 23: Christian population, you know, for thousands of years, Like you know,
- 21:39Speaker 23: I'm staying in air conditioning room. Uh, going to get
- 21:43Speaker 23: my car to go back to my house. Like, yeah,
- 21:45Speaker 23: there's some there's some things that are We've had some
- 21:47Speaker 23: some minor losses, but we need to fight and get
- 21:50Speaker 23: those back. And as long as we can vote fairly,
- 21:53Speaker 23: as long as we have free speech. Uh, there's really
- 21:56Speaker 23: no excuse to quit and not keep going.
- 22:01Speaker 24: Let's see if something costs less but people are happier
- 22:05Speaker 24: with it, that sounds like something to look into, and
- 22:07Speaker 24: that is meta share. Maybe you've heard switching to meta
- 22:10Speaker 24: share to pay for healthcare can save many families up
- 22:13Speaker 24: to five hundred bucks a month, and that is huge,
- 22:15Speaker 24: But it's also true that people are way more satisfied
- 22:18Speaker 24: after making the switch too. The members satisfaction rate for
- 22:21Speaker 24: meta share is double that of the typical health insurance plan.
- 22:25Speaker 24: Double Metashare works too. It's been around for thirty years.
- 22:28Speaker 24: Members have shared more than five billion dollars of each
- 22:31Speaker 24: other's bills. People love having telehealth and a huge nationwide
- 22:34Speaker 24: PPO network. So yeah, really you can save a ton
- 22:37Speaker 24: and like it better. Imagine being happy with how you're
- 22:40Speaker 24: taking care of your healthcare. So if you're self employed

- 28:35Speaker 8: control control himself in the in the backwash of history
- 28:42Speaker 8: and more rightness, all washing around my ankles.
- 28:46Speaker 10: Wow, Wow, big day for you.
- 28:49Speaker 8: Well, you know, when I saw the headline about the
- 28:52Speaker 8: Saudi government pulling all of their money from the Live
- 28:56Speaker 8: Golf tour, I'm like, gee, it's not like Mac and
- 28:59Speaker 8: I talked about this like two weeks ago and they
- 29:01Speaker 8: were all.
- 29:02Speaker 2: Oh, no, everything's fine here, everything's good.
- 29:05Speaker 30: You don't think you don't think you can run a
- 29:06Speaker 30: business for one hundred million a.
- 29:08Speaker 8: Month, Yeah and lose what story said they lost eight
- 29:12Speaker 8: billion dollars. Apparently we know where the Saudi government's line is.
- 29:17Speaker 30: Because now the Wall Street Journal released the report yesterday.
- 29:21Speaker 30: As I said, I'm gonna dive into it just a
- 29:23Speaker 30: little bit because the you know, I almost went into
- 29:26Speaker 30: Diego Pavio mode again and I'm gonna push that back
- 29:30Speaker 30: a while. But anyway, Saudi Arabia did has talked about
- 29:35Speaker 30: it's leaking that they will pull funding from the Live
- 29:38Speaker 30: Tour they're supposed to play at Trump National coming up
- 29:40Speaker 30: next week. But uh if if let's go back a
- 29:44Speaker 30: little business history here, five five PGA golf families run
- 29:49Speaker 30: men's professional golf, the PGA Tour, Augusta National, the RNA,
- 29:53Speaker 30: the USGA, and the PGA of America. Only one doesn't
- 29:57Speaker 30: own a major championship and the entity with the biggest
- 30:00Speaker 30: market presence and consumer impact. In fact, if you throw
- 30:03Speaker 30: in the Ryder Cup, it doesn't own any of the
- 30:06Speaker 30: sport's five biggest events. And so that's a problem for
- 30:09Speaker 30: the private equity people to say, hey, we want to play.
- 30:12Speaker 30: So the PGA Tour and then the Saudi Fund, the PIF,
- 30:16Speaker 30: the Investment Fund, and europe based DP World Tour announced
- 30:19Speaker 30: this framework. If you go back to twenty twenty three,
- 30:22Speaker 30: they wanted to combine everything their commercial operations and then
- 30:25Speaker 30: say okay, let's put this deal together and we can
- 30:28Speaker 30: all share. But according to the Wall Street Journal, the
- 30:32Speaker 30: PGA Tour is not prepared now to welcome back to
- 30:35Speaker 30: live players because they don't know how far this is
- 30:38Speaker 30: going to go. I would not be surprised if the
- 30:41Speaker 30: Trump event next week gets canceled, because the New Orleans
- 30:44Speaker 30: thing in June already got pulled. And so, according to
- 30:48Speaker 30: the Wall Street Journal, the PGA Tour and Brian Rolap
- 30:52Speaker 30: is the new CEO. He's been with the NFL, and
- 30:55Speaker 30: I mean he's really a smart guy. Has basically said,
- 30:59Speaker 30: you know, a leak or so not so fast, right,
- 31:01Speaker 30: Let's wait and see. So the live future is.
- 31:06Speaker 10: Uncertain.
- 31:07Speaker 30: So now the PGA Tour is in position to say,
- 31:10Speaker 30: all right, guys, let's take another look at this.
- 31:13Speaker 2: You know.
- 31:13Speaker 30: In January, Brian Rolap introduced a returning member program, and
- 31:19Speaker 30: it was performance based. If players had been away from
- 31:22Speaker 30: the tour for at least a couple of years, they
- 31:24Speaker 30: had to either win the Players Championship or one of
- 31:26Speaker 30: the majors from twenty two to twenty five, and then
- 31:29Speaker 30: they had until February second to decide if they wanted
- 31:32Speaker 30: to come back. When Patrick Reed was one of those guys,
- 31:34Speaker 30: you know to pull it too, so anyway, Emon Lynch
- 31:38Speaker 30: works for the Golf Channel. He's Golf Week as the writer.
- 31:41Speaker 30: As they used to say about the guys like Bill
- 31:43Speaker 30: Brill and Doug Dowdy and you know people like that
- 31:46Speaker 30: in the state of Virginia. To localize it, you know,
- 31:48Speaker 30: sharp pencil people who would go deep, you know, into
- 31:52Speaker 30: a story. Well, Eam and Lynch said, you know, there's
- 31:54Speaker 30: no way that this can survive.
- 31:56Speaker 13: Here.
- 31:57Speaker 12: What am I buying here?
- 31:58Speaker 31: I'm doubling down on something that has been proven not
- 32:01Speaker 31: to work with the deepest pockets in sport when it
- 32:03Speaker 31: was been financed by the saudiast over the course of
- 32:06Speaker 31: the last five years. So anyone who's going to look
- 32:08Speaker 31: at this is going to think, is there even a
- 32:10Speaker 31: purred down version of Live that functions? And I'd argue
- 32:14Speaker 31: there isn't. They've never had a business. What they've had
- 32:18Speaker 31: was a quasi political operation.
- 32:20Speaker 30: And really, when you go back to it, and I
- 32:22Speaker 30: know it's a we're kind of beating a dead horse here,
- 32:24Speaker 30: But when you looked at the Ian Poulters and the
- 32:27Speaker 30: even Dustin Johnson, who had all the money in the
- 32:29Speaker 30: world and just said, you know, I want a couple
- 32:30Speaker 30: of majors to heck with it. I'll just you know,
- 32:32Speaker 30: go out there and make all the money and I
- 32:34Speaker 30: don't have to play as many events.
- 32:35Speaker 10: I only have to play fifty four holes.
- 32:37Speaker 2: In YadA YadA.
- 32:38Speaker 30: So that's why they you know, they went that route.
- 32:40Speaker 30: So anyway, it's an ongoing story, bottom line, Joe, It's
- 32:42Speaker 30: an ongoing story the business of Live and now that
- 32:47Speaker 30: this O'Neill guy who took over for Greg Norman is
- 32:51Speaker 30: trying to put things back together, he's the ones. Now
- 32:53Speaker 30: it's full throttle.
- 32:54Speaker 10: That was this quote.
- 32:54Speaker 30: It's full throttle. Well what we're going to play, But
- 32:57Speaker 30: now it's it's you know, league course, not so fast
- 33:01Speaker 30: because we don't know if we can make.
- 33:03Speaker 10: It till the end of May.
- 33:04Speaker 30: I will not be surprised, now, I'll just go on record.
- 33:07Speaker 30: I will not be surprised if the unless they're afraid
- 33:10Speaker 30: to battle the Trump National that they will pull that
- 33:13Speaker 30: event next week.
- 33:15Speaker 8: Maybe well I'm sure they're hoping the President bails them out,
- 33:18Speaker 8: you know, if nothing else, I mean, it's somebody else
- 33:21Speaker 8: wanting to you know, it's like Spirit Airlines. You know, hey, uh,
- 33:25Speaker 8: you know all these people, but you know that's the thing,
- 33:28Speaker 8: you know, did they do this for the same reason
- 33:30Speaker 8: the USFL did to kind of shake up the monopoly,
- 33:34Speaker 8: you know, to give you you know, because you said.
- 33:38Speaker 30: You know, you look at and say, Okay, I've got this.
- 33:41Speaker 30: I got a better burger than you know, McDonald's and
- 33:43Speaker 30: Hardy's and Burger.
- 33:44Speaker 10: I got a better burger.
- 33:45Speaker 6: You know what.
- 33:46Speaker 30: I think I'm gonna go ahead and launch and get
- 33:48Speaker 30: a couple of investors. I'm going to launch forty million
- 33:50Speaker 30: into you know what, however, forty restaurants all across the country,
- 33:54Speaker 30: and I think I'm going to go after it. And
- 33:55Speaker 30: then all of a sudden, nobody, nobody's coming. Your marketing
- 33:58Speaker 30: is not good. Uh, your plan is not good. And
- 34:01Speaker 30: especially when you're breaking tradition of the PGA tour, which
- 34:05Speaker 30: definitely the people on the outside could be a little
- 34:08Speaker 30: stuffed shirt and it's right. But now the guys it
- 34:11Speaker 30: became a member gast. Really, it became a joke. Nobody
- 34:14Speaker 30: wanted to watch it. I don't care who the stars
- 34:16Speaker 30: were there, but it just became you know, music on
- 34:19Speaker 30: the tees, wearing shorts, team effort. You know, it just
- 34:24Speaker 30: became kind of a But the guys didn't mind. They
- 34:27Speaker 30: were banking one hundred and twenty five million and then
- 34:29Speaker 30: their home for forty weeks of the year. So it
- 34:35Speaker 30: just it's their business model was we're going to create
- 34:38Speaker 30: something new, and they wanted to and Greg Norman never
- 34:41Speaker 30: liked the tour anyway. He wanted to push.
- 34:43Speaker 8: Yeah, but there's something here. And the reason I asked
- 34:46Speaker 8: this because we're getting ready for the Valley Baseball League season.
- 34:49Speaker 8: That's one of those college Woodbat series. And I don't
- 34:53Speaker 8: know if this is all the college woodbat series like
- 34:55Speaker 8: the Cape Cod League and whatnot, but in the Valley
- 34:58Speaker 8: Baseball League, they are they are adopting banana ball. They are,
- 35:03Speaker 8: they are. The teams will play some exhibitions each week
- 35:09Speaker 8: with banana.
- 35:10Speaker 9: Ball rules there.
- 35:11Speaker 8: They won't be part of seriously, They'll they'll be like,
- 35:16Speaker 8: as I understand it, a little bit quasi doubleheader, like
- 35:19Speaker 8: there'll be an exhibition before the game and then the
- 35:22Speaker 8: actual game will take place. But they'll do banana ball
- 35:25Speaker 8: rules where you win the first three innings, you get
- 35:28Speaker 8: a point. You win the second three innings, you get
- 35:30Speaker 8: a point. There'll be some different things. I don't think
- 35:33Speaker 8: the dancing and everything is going to be part of it,
- 35:35Speaker 8: but they're they're trying to bring in some of these
- 35:38Speaker 8: things that might make baseball a little bit. You know,
- 35:41Speaker 8: they're looking at banana ball, the Savannah.
- 35:43Speaker 30: Bananas and some things. Now, look at all the stuff
- 35:46Speaker 30: that the majors have done too over the years.
- 35:49Speaker 8: Right, But I'm just saying, is there something that the
- 35:51Speaker 8: PGA can learn from live that might not make it
- 35:55Speaker 8: so stuffed shirt?
- 35:58Speaker 30: Well that could answer would probably take Yeah, I think
- 36:03Speaker 30: there is, and they try to do that a little
- 36:05Speaker 30: bit with the pro ams. But I think when you start,
- 36:07Speaker 30: you know, the sponsors and everything, they just want you know,
- 36:10Speaker 30: they want viewership, They want their CEOs to be you know, rubbing.
- 36:14Speaker 8: Elbows and but but if but if this goes back
- 36:17Speaker 8: to what we talked about with this, they lost eight
- 36:20Speaker 8: million dollars.
- 36:22Speaker 30: A hundred million a month.
- 36:24Speaker 8: So you know, what is the sponsor getting out of this?
- 36:27Speaker 8: You know, so at some point Mercedes Benz is going
- 36:30Speaker 8: to say.
- 36:31Speaker 9: Office wall and sign flags.
- 36:33Speaker 8: Yeah, but at some point you're can you have to
- 36:36Speaker 8: sell cars, you have to sell insurance policies at some point, don't.
- 36:40Speaker 30: Anyway, you're gonna love this. Rob Gronkowski is gonna I
- 36:44Speaker 30: love Hall of Fame. So they called him yesterday. He
- 36:47Speaker 30: was on his boat in Florida.
- 36:49Speaker 12: It's a pontoon boat.
- 36:50Speaker 30: So he had this little comment saying, you know, hey, Rob,
- 36:54Speaker 30: how do you like being in the Patriots Hall of Fame.
- 36:57Speaker 9: Yes, I'm on a boat right now.
- 36:58Speaker 32: I'm down in Florida, and I I just got this
- 37:00Speaker 32: new boat.
- 37:01Speaker 19: Uh.
- 37:02Speaker 32: It's a pontoon boat, single enginees nothing fancy, but let
- 37:06Speaker 32: me tell you, they're the best boats, and they ride
- 37:08Speaker 32: really nice. And today is my first day, honest. So

- 44:33Speaker 8: Louisiana a wild card in the redistricting paddle as every
- 44:38Speaker 8: state seems to lind up to try to get in
- 44:41Speaker 8: on the action of redrawing districts. Louisiana was found to
- 44:46Speaker 8: have violated the Voting Rights Acts in a six' to
- 44:51Speaker 8: three decision yesterday in The Supreme court of The United,
- 44:54Speaker 8: states decision saying that one district That John roberts call
- 45:00Speaker 8: called the snake running From Baton rouge To shreveport is
- 45:06Speaker 8: an unconstitutional jerry. Mander to take us inside of this
- 45:11Speaker 8: a little, bit reached out our friends At project twenty.
- 45:15Speaker 8: One great group anyway, there and Former Civil Rights commissioner
- 45:25Speaker 8: for The state Of, Michigan Linda Lee tarvor is on with.
- 45:29Speaker 8: Us Linda, lee thank you for taking a little time
- 45:32Speaker 8: out with. Us how are you doing this.
- 45:33Speaker 12: Morning i'm doing.
- 45:35Speaker 36: Great here in The state Of, michigan doing. Great thank
- 45:38Speaker 36: you for having.
- 45:38Speaker 8: Me not at all. So as a former civil rights,
- 45:41Speaker 8: commissioner obviously was your task to make sure that actual
- 45:46Speaker 8: civil rights weren't. Violated of, course we're living in a
- 45:49Speaker 8: day where we seem to be every week inventing new.
- 45:52Speaker 8: Ones but what is your take on The Supreme court's
- 45:55Speaker 8: ruling yesterday On louisiana.
- 45:58Speaker 12: Case, well thank you for having.
- 46:01Speaker 36: Me i'm a Civil rights commissioner former for here In,
- 46:04Speaker 36: Michigan Any project twenty one. Ambassador the civil rights movement
- 46:09Speaker 36: was about equality under the, law not about racial. Sorting
- 46:14Speaker 36: so in Today's, america black citizens are not confined to
- 46:19Speaker 36: neighborhoods or districts where we live and work and. Vote
- 46:23Speaker 36: the idea of black districts is not only, outdated it's
- 46:27Speaker 36: offensive because representation must be engineered rather than.
- 46:31Speaker 12: Earned and so this ruling.
- 46:33Speaker 36: Moves us closer to a system that respects both fairness
- 46:37Speaker 36: and the, constitution where Every american is treated equally and
- 46:41Speaker 36: every vote carries equal. Weight and so the issue of
- 46:46Speaker 36: having a snake like district two hundred miles of a
- 46:51Speaker 36: congressional district that does look like a snake added To
- 46:55Speaker 36: louisiana to carve out black folks in the state Of
- 47:00Speaker 36: louisiana is certainly. Unconstitutional And i'm so very glad that
- 47:05Speaker 36: The Supreme court justices the Sixth Supreme court justices agreed with.
- 47:10Speaker 8: That you, know we have a sawhorse here on my,
- 47:15Speaker 8: program AND i always looked at what was done with
- 47:19Speaker 8: The Voting Rights act as a second wrong trying to
- 47:24Speaker 8: make a. Right you, know the nineteen twenty Nine Permanent
- 47:27Speaker 8: Reapportionment act that set us into this craziness of rearranging
- 47:31Speaker 8: just a finite number of deck chairs as our population
- 47:34Speaker 8: grew was created by The dixiecrats who were afraid of
- 47:39Speaker 8: a growing Prosperous black community gaining more and more seats In,
- 47:44Speaker 8: congress so they froze the size Of congress and, said
- 47:47Speaker 8: we'll fix. That you, know can we get back to
- 47:51Speaker 8: a place where black, communities white, communities brown, Communities it
- 47:55Speaker 8: doesn't make a, difference you, know where we get our
- 47:58Speaker 8: representatives a little closer and maybe a more, smaller more
- 48:02Speaker 8: compact districts and open this up a little bit more
- 48:07Speaker 8: from where you, Said Linda, lee because we talk about
- 48:09Speaker 8: it here all the, time but somebody with your esteemed,
- 48:12Speaker 8: resume i'd love your thought on the idea that This
- 48:16Speaker 8: Permanent Reapportionment act really was the first act of racial
- 48:21Speaker 8: segregation at the polling.
- 48:23Speaker 12: Places, well just As thomas, said it.
- 48:28Speaker 36: Best he warned that The Voting Rights act was meant
- 48:31Speaker 36: to protect access to the ballot and not to become
- 48:34Speaker 36: a blueprint for race based. Districts that is what his
- 48:40Speaker 36: joining opinion, said AND i agree with him. Wholeheartedly we
- 48:44Speaker 36: are looking at groups of people on the left who
- 48:48Speaker 36: believe that the carbouts will ensure black, representation and it does,
- 48:56Speaker 36: not and that is not the. Intent it was never
- 48:59Speaker 36: the intent of The Voting Rights. Act it has become
- 49:02Speaker 36: a liberal ideologue to ensure districts that will Vote. Democrat
- 49:08Speaker 36: AND i use these examples that black districts are certainly
- 49:13Speaker 36: offensive and not Relative President. Obama one in The United,
- 49:20Speaker 36: states As, President Tim scott represents a majority white. Electorate
- 49:26Speaker 36: Congressman Byron donalds represents a majority white district In, Florida
- 49:32Speaker 36: Wes moore represents governor in a twenty five percent black,
- 49:39Speaker 36: state And Allen west won in a predominantly majority white.
- 49:44Speaker 36: District these men did not win these elections because they
- 49:48Speaker 36: needed a carve. Out they won the elections on their
- 49:52Speaker 36: messaging and that is what and. Merit we live in
- 49:55Speaker 36: a meritocracy thanks To President. Trump so we are now
- 49:59Speaker 36: looking at, merit and that's what The Supreme court delivered.
- 50:02Speaker 8: Yesterday isn't there also a competitive initiative? Ideas if you
- 50:08Speaker 8: have these kind of gerrymandered, districts the pandering is it's
- 50:12Speaker 8: going to continue to promote the economic situations that you,
- 50:17Speaker 8: have rather than maybe, saying, hey we were poor in
- 50:21Speaker 8: nineteen sixty, four we're still. Poor maybe we should try
- 50:24Speaker 8: something else rather than just being fed the same line
- 50:29Speaker 8: that vote for me and we'll get it right this.
- 50:31Speaker 36: Time, well that's been the constant on the. Left those
- 50:36Speaker 36: who have failed the black folks in The, south you,
- 50:41Speaker 36: know those are The Democratic. Party, unfortunately that same party
- 50:46Speaker 36: is peddling the same lies and promises that are never
- 50:51Speaker 36: going to be. Delivered but they're using the backs of
- 50:54Speaker 36: black folks and the votes of their most cherished and
- 50:58Speaker 36: loyal voting block to maintain. That and because we are
- 51:04Speaker 36: no longer living in red lined. Areas redlining was, real
- 51:08Speaker 36: so that that was, real and at the time those
- 51:13Speaker 36: access to votes was. Necessary but because black folks can
- 51:19Speaker 36: move anywhere and live anywhere they, choose there's no longer
- 51:24Speaker 36: this necessity of being looking at redlining where you're limited
- 51:29Speaker 36: to live in this. Space, thus the two hundred miles
- 51:32Speaker 36: snakelike district because black people are not living clustered, anymore
- 51:38Speaker 36: and they're trying to now carve out this stake in
- 51:42Speaker 36: order to achieve this their voting, block their loyal voting.
- 51:47Speaker 36: Block the ruling is about returning to The, constitution and
- 51:52Speaker 36: As Justice thomas, said The Voting Hits act protects access
- 51:57Speaker 36: to the, ballot not race.
- 51:59Speaker 12: Bait they matt.
- 52:00Speaker 36: Drawing you can't justify a two hundred miles snake just
- 52:05Speaker 36: to Assort Black americans by. Race black voters live, everywhere
- 52:10Speaker 36: we vote, everywhere and we need Government we do not
- 52:13Speaker 36: need government engineering to assert our voting.
- 52:19Speaker 8: Block, well it almost sounds like a political kind of.
- 52:23Speaker 8: Redlining Linda Lee tarvor Former ye thank. You SOMETIMES i
- 52:29Speaker 8: say crazy stuff And i'm hoping somebody will agree with,
- 52:33Speaker 8: Me SO i appreciate. That she was Former Michigan Civil
