  Speaker 3: On Energy Secretary Chris Wright said Friday the Strait of

• 6:58
  Speaker 3: you again very soon.
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: Absolutely.
• 7:02
  Speaker 6: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes?
• 7:07
  Speaker 6: Actually three known gas is I am doctor Mitch and
• 7:12
  Speaker 6: nitric oxide is a gas that's readily made all day
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: long to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood
• 7:20
  Speaker 6: vessel walls. By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood,
• 7:26
  Speaker 6: oxygen and nutrients to every part of your body. Both
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: age and poor diet can lead to a loss of
• 7:34
  Speaker 6: this precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
• 7:38
  Speaker 6: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
• 7:41
  Speaker 6: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate nitric Oxide
• 7:46
  Speaker 6: can easily help fix.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: This lack of nitric oxide.

• 8:06
  Speaker 6: one of the few bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products
• 8:11
  Speaker 6: on the market. I am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic
• 8:15
  Speaker 6: diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems to be a
• 8:20
  Speaker 6: perfect addition to any nutritional program. It makes sense to
• 8:25
  Speaker 6: me that preventing or reducing inflammation is a key component
• 8:30
  Speaker 6: to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin
• 8:34
  Speaker 6: can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties, and research
• 8:40
  Speaker 6: suggests that kurcumin can prevent cancer or at least slow
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: the spread of cancer, and in many instances, make chemotherapy
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: more effective. It protects our healthy cells even from radiation.

  Speaker 8: Hi, everybody, I'm Jack Hannah. It's always a boy growing
• 10:01
  Speaker 8: up on a farm in Tennessee. I've been fascinated with animals.
• 10:04
  Speaker 8: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
• 10:06
  Speaker 8: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the

• 10:12
  Speaker 8: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
• 10:15
  Speaker 8: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
• 10:17
  Speaker 8: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
• 10:21
  Speaker 8: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
• 10:23
  Speaker 8: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
• 10:25
  Speaker 8: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
• 10:29
  Speaker 8: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
• 10:32
  Speaker 8: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
• 10:35
  Speaker 8: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
• 10:38
  Speaker 8: from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
• 10:41
  Speaker 8: a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a
• 10:44
  Speaker 8: variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society and
• 10:46
  Speaker 8: help those in need. So please join me an American

  Speaker 3: The town.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: From the home of the First Amendment, First thing today,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: A lot of politicians try to give themselves inoculations against
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: public criticisms by promoting and or co sponsoring bills that
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: will somehow, in way, shape or form, prohibit elected officials
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: from profiting from their investments. Some people call them Nancy
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: Pelosi ordinances, you know, where you're more concerned with somebody
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: going to Congress and becoming a millionaire than somebody some
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: millionaire going to Congress and faster than you can say,
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: George Santos, what too soon? Right, More of these cases
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: are popping up where people's hands are not just in
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: the traditional cookie jars, but they invent new cookie jars.
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: And it's interesting to look at how many of these
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: investigations into COVID fraud started under the Biden administration, and
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: I think I know why. But first let me tell
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: you about the latest one. So, of course, you know,
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: Congressoman McCormick forced out, and the delicious irony of her
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: ouster in Florida is that the guy who's going to
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: replace her his daughters are under investigation for the same thing,
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: committing od against the COVID giveaways, the very thing that
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: has caused our dollar to be worth buppkus about the
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: only currency on the planet that's worth less than ours.
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: Is the Iranian real It's pretty bad. So maybe not
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: to the degree that Congressoman McCormick five million dollars in
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: COVID fraud. Oh no, hers was FEMA. I'm sorry, that's
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: a right. Hers was FEMA fraud, not COVID fraud. But
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: it was connected to shut downs. They were just trying
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: to find ways to funnel money. It's more COVID fraud.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: Now coming from our flagship state of Virginia, where we
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: now know more about why the FBI rated the most
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: powerful Democrat in Virginia, that is Senate President pro Tempore
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: Louise Lucas. She runs headshops in the Portsmouth and Hand
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: and Rhodes area, has been in trouble in the past
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: because her staff. According to her, her staff started selling
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: THHC laced products without her knowledge because she's that good
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: of a delegator. So the FBI may sixth rated her office.
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: You've seen it was on all the news, top Virginia
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: democrat claiming Trump set me up, even though this was
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: a Biden era investigation because and here's why I think
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: Biden is particularly was particularly keen into this is the
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: it's an understandable human complaint to say, hey, I worked
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: hard for my corruption money. I had to put my
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: son on the board of Barisma Holdings. I had to
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: get my son on the bank board in some Chinese
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: bank operation. I had to sacrifice my only son that
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: hadn't died of cancer from something other than the serving
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: and military service. To put that one child, who's barely
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: barely in control of his own emotional well being in
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: these positions. Do you know how much peril that put
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: us in? You people are pikers out here just looking
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: at a government program saying I'm just gonna defraud that.
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: I had my family, Joe Biden out there, My family
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: had to defraud people the old fashioned way and just
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: take government money from them without proper cause. Gosh darn it,
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna send Merrit Garland after your people right after
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: he has done rounding up all the parents who are
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: mad at their school boards right after. So apparently what
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: was happening is Louise Lucas's head shops, these cannabis outlets
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: and all the various business names, because nothing says there
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: might be something untoward going on here more than having
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: multiple business names and business licensures go on and on
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: and on through history. So this cannabis outlet apparently was
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: defrauding COVID money and got to love, you know, when
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: you have people of great character as soon as not
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: even squeezed, as soon as being told he might get squeezed.
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: The guy who is facing indictment in this case tells
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: reporters as soon as he sees them. As soon as
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: he sees them, he says, I was a pawn. I
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: was a pawn in this operation. Carlton Wood Junior, who's
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: also charged with having a business license while not reporting
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: his criminal record. So apparently she was getting pandemic era
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: business relief for business that didn't need it and set
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: up Carlton Wood to be the fall guy for it.
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: And now that he's falling, he doesn't want to go
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: the company Virginia Freedom Life. Don't you love these democrats
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: come up with the best names for their front operations.
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: So this front business for the cannabis outlet was called
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: Virginia Freedom Life. How could you be against freedom and
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: life and drugs?
• 19:35
  Speaker 15: So the.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: Commonwealth of Virginia's most well known elderly drugs dealer is
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: listed as the business licensee and the deed holder on
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: the storefront that they sell their products out of. But
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: somehow Carlton Wood Junior is the one that's going down
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: for the fraud against taxpayers. Stay tuned. This is just
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: going to get more fun as this unfolds, because apparently
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: Carlton Wood ain't going down quietly. And I don't think
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: Louise Lucas has schooled up quite yet at the Clinton
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: administration ability for cleaning up loose ends like Carlton Wood Junior.

• 21:17
  Speaker 3: bless the poor souls, all corruptible. They see this pile
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: of other people's money. Nobody's looking around here. It's like
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: the little kid left in the room with a jar
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: full of cookies, and he looks around, and he looks
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: around again. He might even look around a third time
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: to see if mom or dad, or maybe his older
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: sister who would snitch on him, is around anywhere. And
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: once you know he's looked around, check the dog to
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: make sure the dog isn't gonna knock on him. And
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: then he finally sticks his hand in the cookie jar,
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: only to find a spider in there, like they used
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: to do on the Allen Funt Candid Camera TV shows.
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: But he's gonna stick his hand in the cookie jar
• 21:58

  Speaker 17: Today's modern vehicle, whether it's a car, suv, or light truck,
• 23:14
  Speaker 17: is designed with a specific fuel in mind. Read your
• 23:16
  Speaker 17: owner's manual. What octane rating does the vehicle manufacturer call for?
• 23:20
  Speaker 17: That's what you should use, But there are exceptions to
• 23:23
  Speaker 17: the rule. Many high end or luxury vehicles call for
• 23:26
  Speaker 17: premium or higher octane fuel and The reason for this
• 23:29
  Speaker 17: is not just due to the octane rating. There are
• 23:31
  Speaker 17: better fuel system cleaners in premium fuels. Gasoline companies know
• 23:35
  Speaker 17: too the vehicles that run on premium won't perform as
• 23:37
  Speaker 17: well with carbon deposits, so they pack more cleaning power
• 23:40
  Speaker 17: into their premium fuels than their regular blend. If you
• 23:43
  Speaker 17: rotate your fuel choices around, say every third tank full,
• 23:46
  Speaker 17: you may find better performance and miles per gallon because
• 23:49
  Speaker 17: you are cleaning your engine and fuel system while you drive.

  Speaker 6: It makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation
• 24:28
  Speaker 6: is a key component to our overall health. The Mayo
• 24:31
  Speaker 6: Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent cancer
• 24:43
  Speaker 6: or at least slow the spread of cancer, and in
• 24:45
  Speaker 6: many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy

  Speaker 23: It's right.

  Speaker 18: I have to take some lines and makes them sound
• 28:21
  Speaker 18: precocious for.
• 28:22
  Speaker 17: Saying than in Congress or and mainstream out that so disinformation's.
• 28:26
  Speaker 10: Origins a slightly loss atrocious.
• 28:30
  Speaker 6: It's how you had a delighted lie.
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: It's how you had love bringing Gina Nina Jankoitz's You
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: know what, I'm really surprised at, as I said here
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: on May sixteenth of twenty twenty six, that she didn't
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: land a network gig. I guess the money was already
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: starting to dry up when they wheeled Nina Jankowitz out
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: as the disinformation director. The disinformations are. But just keep
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: in mind, really quickly as Brendan Carr sable rattles over
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: TV networks over things that he really shouldn't have authority on,
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: but he says so. So therefore the office that she
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: was the director of still exists. And you know, just
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: because she was club footedly arrogant and couldn't you know,
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: keep her cake hole shut and thought being a social
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: media influencer was more important than being disinformations are for
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: the US federal government. Doesn't mean the next person didn't
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: learn lessons from her. And each time we do disinformation,
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: it gets better and better because it becomes and one
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: of the secrets of doing disinformation is make it look
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: like actual information. That's what they are. It's always about.
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: Make this look, oh, this is just some informa, it's
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: not disinformation. You make it seem as innocuous as possible.
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: And Brendan Carr is a great example. Brendan Carr. Sure,
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: he's Donald Trump's guy, and I get it. Donald Trump
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: had been treated massively unfairly by TV networks, print networks,
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: everything else. But the establishment of this kind of authority
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: at the FCC is dangerous because what happens when Abigail
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: Spanberger is president or Gavin Newsom or Josh Shapiro huh
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: or some democrat we haven't thought of you? What if
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: Michelle Obama becomes president and can issue executive edicts on
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: what she wants to see punished in the media. Let
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: us hemorrhage our listeners. Let us program our programs to
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: the best way we can. Most of us come into
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: these operations thinking how am I going to serve the viewer, reader, listener.
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: Some of us sure, we're like the guys running the
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: Minnesota Leering Center. You know, we're just looking for some
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: government money. But they also start to fade because after
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: a bit, it becomes same old, same old. Because what
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: happens with disinformation, even if they wrap it up in information,
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: is eventually you start to become old information, and then
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: people are like, I don't need to read this today.
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: It's the same stuff it was yesterday. Doctor Clark was
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: on the line as we're talking about these corruptions within
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: the government systems, and you know how, it's just like
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: the kid in the cookie jar. You leave the cookie
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: jar with the kid, kid's going to reach for it. Definitely.
• 32:09
  Speaker 16: So if there's ever been in the history of Man
• 32:14
  Speaker 16: a bigger wealth transfer than the COVID drawl.
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: I'm not sure it's even wealth transfer. We just invented wealth,
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: and I'm not usual even sure it qualifies as wealth
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: considering the value of the dollars that we printed. I mean,
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: we printed more money than I think all the civilizations
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: known to Man up till that point.
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: And just gave it to people.
• 32:39
  Speaker 16: Okay, what happened when they printed those dollars, Joe, Well,
• 32:43
  Speaker 16: they do cut the value right of every dollar you
• 32:47
  Speaker 16: had in the bank in half, and they got that half.
• 32:51
  Speaker 16: That was a wealth transfer, you know. And it's worse
• 32:54
  Speaker 16: for the retiree. You consider the person that had worked
• 32:58
  Speaker 16: their entire life and say they'd figured out that if
• 33:03
  Speaker 16: I save up five hundred thousand dollars, I can live
• 33:10
  Speaker 16: off of what that will get me the rest of
• 33:12
  Speaker 16: my life. And with one fraud operation. They cut that
• 33:19
  Speaker 16: person's value in half. That's true, and now the pensioner
• 33:27
  Speaker 16: is going to have a very difficult time.
• 33:29
  Speaker 6: Of course, you know.
• 33:32
  Speaker 16: Now there'll be more reliant on government.
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: Assessants and we won't have fraud this time because we've
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: learned our lesson from all the other times. Good stuff, Clark,
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: But I am I wrong about the kid in the
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: cookie jar. It's the same corruption. It's hey, I can
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: get something I didn't have to do anything for awesome, Yes, exactly,
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: Digiti and I don't know.
• 33:58
  Speaker 16: How to pronounce the Greek fellow's name. The through city
• 34:02
  Speaker 16: these cleez trap. Did you see that warning from j.
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: Jing King, which one he's issued several about about Taiwan,
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: about don't test me.
• 34:14
  Speaker 16: We could come to It was the the whole deal
• 34:17
  Speaker 16: was supposedly going all the way back to when Athens
• 34:22
  Speaker 16: was coming on in Sparta was the dominant state, the
• 34:26
  Speaker 16: conflict from a rising state and.
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: One oh yeah yeah. This was when he called the
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: United States a declining state and China was the ascending one. Yeah,
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: all right, we need to quit declining.
• 34:42
  Speaker 16: I'm not going to argue that point. Okay, uh huh,
• 34:46
  Speaker 16: we are in decline. And we've let it happen, and
• 34:49
  Speaker 16: we need to We need to.
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: Make America great again.
• 34:52
  Speaker 23: We're working on it.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: But here's the deal.
• 34:57
  Speaker 16: You know, China be a rising economic power does not
• 35:02
  Speaker 16: threaten me. Why are government's instituted, Joe, what's the whole
• 35:07
  Speaker 16: point and having government.
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: To protect our rights, protect our rights, protect our rights?
• 35:14
  Speaker 16: Right now, does the government of China have any interest
• 35:17
  Speaker 16: whatsoever in protecting anybody's rights?
• 35:21
  Speaker 23: No?
• 35:22
  Speaker 16: Quite to the contrary, slave waiver is quite fine. And
• 35:26
  Speaker 16: you know the Jim guy yesterday talking about the fact
• 35:29
  Speaker 16: that they would use Taiwanese women as breeding factories. That's
• 35:34
  Speaker 16: not beyond the pale of what they would do.
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: Well, I know, their attitude towards human rights is well chronicled.
• 35:41
  Speaker 16: Yes, it's states rights. So you know, when your entire
• 35:47
  Speaker 16: objection is to dominate the planet and totally do away
• 35:53
  Speaker 16: with human rights, were going to conflict you and I Well.
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, But that's the thing is is the their idea
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: of what a human's purpose is is different than ours
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: because they view that the individual is there to serve
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: the state. The state is the important entity in the equation,
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: and that anything that gets in the way of serving
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: the state is against the law. We look at it
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: the other way, to be fairer to the chicoms. Human
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: history is far more replete with examples of the former,
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: not the latter. We were weird. We were the weird
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: hippies in seventeen seventy six who said, Hey, how about
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: we invented government where the citizen's rule and there was
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: more frequently governments. And what maw and really maw more
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: than Marx did, is he put a smiley face on tyranny.
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: He said, how about you instead of just one guy,
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: how about we make it a group of guys who
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: all answer to one guy. But then you see a
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: group of guys telling you what to do, and you're like,
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: all right. So they came to a decision. There was
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: a discussion. It wasn't just some guy saying do this
• 37:13
  Speaker 3: because I say so, even if at the end of
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: the day that's what it was. They put a smiley
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: face on totalitarianism, and that's why it falls apart all
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: the time.
• 37:24
  Speaker 16: Well, if you look at every form of government you
• 37:27
  Speaker 16: can think of, and if you want to start on
• 37:30
  Speaker 16: the very far left, you know, communism, socialism, weren't you
• 37:35
  Speaker 16: were ever to democracy even monarchy, sutilism, tyranny, tyranny, tyranny, tyranny,
• 37:45
  Speaker 16: and I'm including democracy in there because what is democracy?
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: That's mob rule and it still might as right, doctor Clark. Unfortunately,
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: my tyranny is the tyranny of time and I'm going
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: to run to a break. Good stuff, my friend, have
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: a great Saturday.
• 38:01
  Speaker 15: Can you believe with all the recent violent protests, looting
• 38:05

  Speaker 1: On a need to know basis, because you need to
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: know the first thing today.
• 44:32
  Speaker 16: So do you know?
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: As our friends listening to us on one O three
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: point nine Long Island News Radio my old home, I
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: feel like I'd love to hide behind some Pat Bendatar
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: records in a world full of you know, and and
• 44:48
  Speaker 3: we would at that point be trying to figure out
• 44:52
  Speaker 3: how to deal with a Long Island Railroad strike and
• 44:55
  Speaker 3: still play you know, classic rock in between, but we'd
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: be doing it. Matt Mangus was an incredible boss and
• 45:02
  Speaker 3: taught me everything I know about it and ask anybody
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: who is part of that team. Then we would have
• 45:08
  Speaker 3: We would have been on this like White on Rice,
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: just like we are now. I just don't have to
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: try to squeeze twelve songs in an hour while we
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: talk about the Long Island Railroad strike And what are
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: you going to do come Monday? This email, Jerry writes
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: in the strike will be over by Monday.
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: Joe, Why?
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: I mean you don't specify, Jerry. I'm glad you're an optimist.
• 45:32
  Speaker 3: Me too. I I'd like to think that somebody's what
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: are you expecting Kathy Hokeel to step in and and
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: this you? You are you expecting Zorhan mom Donnie to
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: ride into the rescue. I mean, certainly you could look
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: to President Trump to say you can't shut down access.
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: I mean it's like putting a turnkit on the blood
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: flow and then the Long Island Expressway in the Garden
• 46:02
  Speaker 3: Grand Central Parkway and all these parking lots as it is.
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: Never mind once you get into queens so you add
• 46:09
  Speaker 3: three hundred thousand more cars, because of course everyone will carpool.
• 46:15
  Speaker 3: But here's just a snippet. I gave you some abstracts
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: earlier talking about the Long Island Railroad strike. Commonwealth of Virginia,
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: most recent figures, takes in thirty seven point seven billion
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: dollars a year in tax collections. The entire state of Virginia,
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: Long Island Railroad generates three point nine billion dollars in
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: revenue just running its rail service. That's one tenth of
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: the entirety of Virginia's GDP, just on some rail lines
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: going to Port Washington and Queensboro Plaza and ron Kunkoma.
• 47:15
  Speaker 3: One tenth of Virginia's budget, one tenth of all the
• 47:20
  Speaker 3: money collected in an entire state, and I picked the
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: one that we're also in. So there's a connection. You
• 47:26
  Speaker 3: can understand it. Just Virginia's net income taxes from corporations
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: is the same as the Long Island Railroad generates just
• 47:43
  Speaker 3: by its own operation three point eight three six billion
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: dollars Virginia took in on taxes on corporations the same
• 47:52
  Speaker 3: amount the Long Island Railroad generates in revenue. Yet absolutely
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: drowning in red ink can't cut back enough because I mean,
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: you're running one train an hour. At some point you
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: stop being a useful train line, Thomas, I want to
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: be a useful engine. So if your train station isn't
• 48:24
  Speaker 3: getting at least one train in and out an hour,
• 48:27
  Speaker 3: it starts to not even be something you consider, unless
• 48:31
  Speaker 3: you're going to a concert at Madison Square Garden. They
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: still I mean, I know the Moynihan train station is
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: next door now under the old post office, but I
• 48:45
  Speaker 3: mean you still can walk right upstairs, right. I haven't been.
• 48:48
  Speaker 3: My wife's been through the Moynihan railway station, which is
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: funny because Pat moynihan always partied at the Irish Pub
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: inside Grand Central Station. But that's a different story. But
• 49:02
  Speaker 3: this is about how governments don't work. So imagine for
• 49:05
  Speaker 3: a second you're a railway operator, or you're just one
• 49:09
  Speaker 3: of those serial entrepreneurs. You're some Long Island guy there,
• 49:16
  Speaker 3: I could run that business. I'll bet you half of
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: Long Island's population is right now saying I could run
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: a business where we made three point nine billion dollars
• 49:28
  Speaker 3: a year. I bet you could, especially if you had
• 49:37
  Speaker 3: laws like the Tailor Acts saying that your employees technically
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: can't go on strike. Well they'll get fined and such
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: if they do because of their service to the public.
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: This is what Margaret Thatcher pardon me, knew about these
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: government operations. British Rail did so much better when it
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: de governmentized and extricated itself from the government, privatized Japan's
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: rail service Japan, Japan can build high speed rail everywhere.
• 50:20
  Speaker 3: California can't build it in between couple of tumbleweed stops
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: east of Los Angeles and San Francisco. Japan's got high
• 50:33
  Speaker 3: speed rail all over the place, running into big cities
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: and out of big cities, and California has the train
• 50:40
  Speaker 3: to nowhere. At what point? How many examples of this
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: stuff are we going to need? Get out of the
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: railway business. Find somebody who wants to run a railway business,
• 50:55
  Speaker 3: because you know why, half the companies didn't want to
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: run railway businesses because the government regulations had made it
• 51:02
  Speaker 3: impossible for them to run passenger service and freight service.
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: You know what, got to move stuff out to Long Island.
• 51:11
  Speaker 3: Let every train carry a couple of box cars worth
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: of stuff for Raan Konkama. You get all those operations.
• 51:17
  Speaker 3: You know, if you're on Long Island, you've seen it.
• 51:20
  Speaker 3: If you're traveling the trains in Virginia, you've seen it.
• 51:23
  Speaker 3: These old towns with the warehouses that are all along
• 51:26
  Speaker 3: by the train stations. You know why those warehouses were there.
• 51:31
  Speaker 3: Those machine shops were there because stuff used to come
• 51:34
  Speaker 3: off the train that they used. So let's get back
• 51:39
  Speaker 3: into that business. And even without that, I'll bet you
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: you could run a three point nine billion dollar business
• 51:48
  Speaker 3: and not be drowning in red ink, because I will
• 51:54
  Speaker 3: bet you that part of the reason Long Island Railroad
• 51:57
  Speaker 3: and it's three point nine billion dollar revenue stream is
• 52:01
  Speaker 3: drowning in red ink has a lot to do with
• 52:03
  Speaker 3: the story we told you earlier about all the COVID
• 52:06
  Speaker 3: money floating around, because if you know the guy whose
• 52:10
  Speaker 3: money it is you're stealing, you're less likely to steal
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: it than if it's just some gray edifice of a government.
• 52:21
  Speaker 3: But it's just it's amazing to me to see this again,
• 52:25
  Speaker 3: the failures of being able to take a railway system
• 52:30
  Speaker 3: that is the envy of the world moves more people,
• 52:33
  Speaker 3: more places, more efficiently than any other in the world
• 52:36
  Speaker 3: for all of its warts, and it's bathing in red ink.
• 52:41
  Speaker 3: It's a giant vortex of red, like the drain in Psycho,
• 52:48
  Speaker 3: the red running down the drain.
• 52:51
  Speaker 12: You know, It's true. Difficult times have a way of
• 52:53
  Speaker 12: focusing us. We have to think about what matters most
• 52:57
  Speaker 12: when it comes to our spending our healthcare. This is
• 52:59
  Speaker 12: why so many people are joining meta share right now.
• 53:03
  Speaker 12: Metashare is a trusted way to save up to fifty
• 53:06
  Speaker 12: percent on your monthly healthcare costs. More than four hundred
• 53:09
  Speaker 12: thousand people have already made the switch. It's pretty obvious
• 53:12
  Speaker 12: why too, especially now during this challenging season with health
• 53:16
  Speaker 12: care costs and out of pocket expenses going up. Metas
• 53:19
  Speaker 12: Share can save you a lot of money. The typical
• 53:22
  Speaker 12: family saves five hundred dollars a month. Meda Share works too.
• 53:26
  Speaker 12: It's been around for thirty years. Members have shared more
• 53:28
  Speaker 12: than five billion dollars of each other's bills. There are
• 53:31
  Speaker 12: different options to choose from to fit your budget. I'll
• 53:34
  Speaker 12: give you the number here in a second, and if
• 53:35
  Speaker 12: you call you can get a price within two minutes.
• 53:38
  Speaker 12: Maybe now it is the perfect time to make the
• 53:40
  Speaker 12: switch and start saving. Here you go call eight five
• 53:43
  Speaker 12: five share forty. That's eight five five share forty eight
• 53:48
  Speaker 12: five five share forty
