  Speaker 1: All right, interesting guy. Last hour, NewsRadio 570, WDKVN. And
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Ron Ferb comments, 330-729-9977, I think is the phone number. Yes,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: it is. You want to chime in? You got something
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: you want to run up the flagpole? See if anybody salutes.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: We'll take on all comers till 7 tonight. Maybe a
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: G2 appearance at 6 o'clock. Possibly. with some insight into
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: what's going on in our world. 330-729-9977. We'll get you
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: through to us. 330-729-9977. We'll get you through on NewsRadio 570.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: I think the main point of that last guy's call,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: if you were listening last hour, was basically saying that,
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: in his opinion, in the state of Ohio, we're letting
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: business get away with not paying enough in taxes and
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: shifting the burden to the individual homeowner through property taxes. basically,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: is what his assessment was. Business is getting too much
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: of a break, tax break in Ohio, and it's shifted
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: to the individual. And I get one of those criticisms,
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: which is a fair criticism to make when he says
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: it's one of the problems with the repeal property taxes is, okay,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: if we repeal property taxes, that means Walmart's not going
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: to pay it or Home Depot's not going to pay it.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Or all these, you know, if you get a data center,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: that big building wouldn't be paying property taxes. And that
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: burden would be shifted to who? The individual. The individual.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: And I get what he's saying as far as that
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: is concerned. It's part of the reason why I like
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: the Moaning County Commissioners, Trumbull County Commissioners. They have the
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: ability to ease the burden for individual citizens. When I
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: talk so much about they have the ability to double
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: the homestead exemption for our poor senior citizens. Business, Walmart
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: and Home Depot, they don't get that. Or these rental
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: properties and all that kind of stuff, they don't get it.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Only property owners that are senior citizens would get the
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: doubling of the homestead exemption, which is income-based for poor
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: senior citizens. And only people that are owner-occupies would get
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: that doubling of that property tax portion, too. You have
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: to be owner-occupancy. So it's for individuals. It wouldn't apply
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: to any business, what have you, on property taxes. That's
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: a good thing. What Dave Thomas got passed to give
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: your commissioners the ability to give you that, but they
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: simply refuse to do it because they think government's better
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: off with your money than you are after that exorbitant increase.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: That's kind of interesting. All right, you're on the air.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Hello.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: Hey, how you doing, Ron?
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: It's Bubba Ganoush.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: That's a pretty good analysis you made.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Really? I thought the guy had some interesting points. I mean,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: the guy's basically saying you can't shift all the taxes
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: away from business to the individuals.
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: Agreed.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: And there is justification to his argument that a lot
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: of that has taken place.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: Well, that has to be resolved. Yeah, you voted. You
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: said you voted.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: Yes, I did. And were you sitting down when I said,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: when I voted— On my ballot in Austintown, I voted
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: for the continuing of the quarter percent sales tax for
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Pat Giannetti and the roads. The guy's done more.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: My road isn't paved.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Not yet, but he's done a lot in the county
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: and the townships benefit from it. You don't even notice it.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: That's a sales tax. I voted... And are you ready
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: for this? There were two road tax renewals in my township,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: which I also voted for. I did not vote against
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: any of the renewals on roads at all. I had
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: three tax issues on my ballot, all renewals, all for roads,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: and I voted to renew every single one of them.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: And the money's going to go to the roads, right? Yes.
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: Okay, well.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: I just want my road done. They're doing a lot
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: of work down in Mill Creek with those wastewater pipes
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: I've been bitching about for 50 years. Right.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: That's a different program. But if you look in the county,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: we've never had so many roads fixed and repaired as
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: you see what's going on under... this county engineer, and
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: the townships have benefited from that quarter percent sales tax
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: because a lot of money goes in addition to what
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: their paving program is. I ask you this. Imagine if
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: we didn't have this situation going on with the cost
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: of a barrel of oil because asphalt's oil-based. If you
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: could get oil back down to a reasonable point, you'd
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: be able to even pave even more road miles than
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: he's doing. I hope you're right, Bubba.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: A little patient, a little patient. Marco Rubio is now
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: our press secretary.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: I saw a clip of that.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: Isn't that great?
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: This guy's something else. And he got everybody laughing. And,
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: you know, nobody badgered him. Nobody beat him up. So
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: that was good.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: That is good.
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: And I heard something about the boss lady. That's pretty interesting.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, I have to have They've got to
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: get the personal attacks stopped because it's not right to
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: do something like that. I mean, stay focused on your thoughts.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: I mean, people have a right to disagree on their
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: views of the issues. I don't have a problem with that,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: but that's where we draw the line. How's that sound
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: to you?
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: Well, I always say, like with voting, vote early and
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: vote often, the Democratic way. That's what Democrats do. Vote
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: early and vote often.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Is that what you say?
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: No, no, that's what Democrats say. Vote early and vote often.
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: I see.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: You never heard that before?
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Yes, I have.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: There you go. There you go. Well, listen, the Indians
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: are struggling, but I still got faith in them. God,
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: I hope so.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: I really do. I mean, things looked very good at
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: the beginning of the season, but they're having some bumpy
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: roads now. But Dick from Dayton would tell you, how
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: about those Cavaliers?
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: Cavaliers.
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Cavs, the Cavs. My brother called me, actually. He's
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: not a sports guy. He goes, hey, you watching the game?
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: I said, no, I'm not. You know, and he was
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: pretty excited because his son is a big Cav man,
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: you know.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: So, yeah, so, you know, Ron, I think things are
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: going to go okay.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Well, I hope you're right. You're making me feel optimistic
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: when you say that kind of stuff.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: Well, that's because, you know..
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: You're like a ray of sunshine around here. I got
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: sunshine on a cloudy day.
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: Remember, your future's so bright, you're going to need shades.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: And I said that since 16. I mean that.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Well, I would like to see this come to a
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: conclusion and get back focused on America first and get
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: inflation under control. And start focusing on why he was elected.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: And you've got to get gas prices down. You've got
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: to get inflation under control. And they're going in the
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: opposite direction right now.
• 7:31
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: It'll come. It'll come. The thing is, we've just got
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: to have patience, and he'll be out of there. But
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: he's really putting the squeeze with Scott Besson on the Iranians.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: So he's doing a good job there. Everybody even says,
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: you know. Even the Saudi Arabians loves it. You know
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: what I mean?
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: I would love to see it work out. Let me
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: put it that way. I would love to see it
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: be successful.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: Well, guess what?
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: It will.
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: I mean, he's not going to go down unsuccessful. That
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: guy is a winner. You know, he's not going to
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: go down. And people put him down constantly. Remember all
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: the good things he's did.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean? I don't want to list them,
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: but come on. Seriously.
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: All right. Right?
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Listen, if you think for a minute I would vote
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: for Sherrod Brown or vote for any Democrat, you would
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: have your head examined.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: Could you imagine that? The guy's running again after the
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: mess he made.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, Sherrod Brown backed everything Joe Biden supported. You
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: think I would vote for him?
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 8:42
  Speaker 8: And..
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: You know, just like my one buddy said, he goes,
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: you vote for a Democrat, you're crazy. Just like you said.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah. But you know what? It's going to be okay.
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: I think this result you're going to be surprised with.
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: You're going to be very surprised.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Well, this is a primary, so it really doesn't matter
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: too much, you know, until you get to the general election.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: I know that, but you're going to be surprised at
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: the results.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Why am I going to be surprised?
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: Because it's going to be a win.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: A win?
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, for the conservatives.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean, it depends if you it depends if
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: you pulled a Republican or Democrat ballot. I mean, it
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: would depend. I mean, when I looked at mine, I mean,
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: I voted for Vivek or Vivek or Vivek or whatever
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: you want to call him. I'm for governor. Yeah.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: I mean, he was down at NBR. I met him
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: down there.
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: But I mean, I thought, OK, I'll go with him.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think he's. I will vote for him
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: over Amy Acton any day of the week. I mean,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: it's so much. I mean, Amy Acton quit being your
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: state doctor because it got to couldn't take the criticism
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: and all that kind of stuff. And she threw the
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: towel in. Now she wants to be governor where you'd
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: get even more. I don't get it.
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: Well, listen, I got a call coming in.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: God bless you. Go get it.
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: And you have a good day.
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: All right. Thank you. It's Bubba Ganoush. You're on the air.
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: Say again?
• 10:09
  Speaker 7: How you doing ron i i just want to comment
• 10:11
  Speaker 7: on the uh... previous caller before yes before public news uh...
• 10:16
  Speaker 7: he talked about property taxes you know to me a
• 10:19
  Speaker 7: democrat can't speak about property taxes when illegal immigrants you
• 10:25
  Speaker 7: know with the high demand uh... for housing you know
• 10:29
  Speaker 7: they drive up the property values enhance the property taxes
• 10:34
  Speaker 7: to me You know, when a Democrat speaks about property taxes,
• 10:40
  Speaker 7: they should just go in the corner and just, you know,
• 10:42
  Speaker 7: be quiet. But what do you think of the most
• 10:45
  Speaker 7: recent Democrat propaganda on Ramaswamy, where they tried saying that,
• 10:50
  Speaker 7: you know, he was against Jesus as the.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: Lord, even though Obama was a Muslim?
• 10:58
  Speaker 7: Have you seen any of those articles?
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: No. No.
• 11:02
  Speaker 7: Those articles have been out everywhere.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: No, I'm totally not familiar with any of that. I
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: genuinely plead ignorance, which is an easy thing for me, incidentally,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: to plead.
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: No, it's okay. I'm just not sure.
• 11:17
  Speaker 6: They're trying to say, oh, Ram Swamy, you know, they
• 11:21
  Speaker 6: brought up some kind of like previous speech that he
• 11:23
  Speaker 6: made where he was kind of like saying Jesus wasn't
• 11:27
  Speaker 6: the Lord somehow or another.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: But yet, you know, Obama, you know, he was a Muslim.
• 11:33
  Speaker 7: You know, what does that have to do with anything
• 11:36
  Speaker 7: to me?
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: Hey, what's your philosophy? What are you going to do
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: as governor? I like his philosophy way better than Amy Acton.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: Amy Acton's a far-left progressive. And you can see what
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: happens with those far-left progressives in Virginia. You can see
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: in New York. I mean, what do they do? They
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: raise taxes on Joe Bagadonis and screw you.
• 12:01
  Speaker 7: All right, Ron, I just wanted to hear your thoughts
• 12:04
  Speaker 7: on that, and I appreciate all the patience you have
• 12:06
  Speaker 7: with some of these Democrats that call you on the phone.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: All right, buddy.
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: You have a good day, sir.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Thank you. You're on the air.
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: Well, there's one thing. The Cavaliers, I'll be watching tonight,
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: but I have good news to tell them. I think
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: it's going to be okay. They'll get into it. It's
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: early yet.
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: It's early, but..
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: You're talking to Guardians.
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah, the Guardians are going to be okay. I think
• 12:28
  Speaker 5: they will, but they need to step it up a
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: little bit, you know?
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you think?
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say that they do. But I give
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: you credit because you would be calling me, it's Dick
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: from Dayton, the official sports prognosticator, and all I'm doing
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: is I'm focusing on the Guardians.
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: And you're spouting the Cavs, and I'm not paying attention.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: You know, I'm looking over here, you're looking at the Cavs,
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: and son of a gun, who's marching on but the Cavaliers?
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, but it's going to be tough, I think,
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: I tell you. You know, maybe the first two. I
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: don't know. They're going to have to. The way they played,
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: but they said that it's going to be tough on them.
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: But some way they might pull this off, you know.
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: I've got a good feeling about this, you know.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: I would like to see them. Well, look, they're so
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: far so good. But it gets harder as time goes on,
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: as you know.
• 13:20
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: Well, have a good day, buddy.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: There you go. It's Dick from Dayton, cheering on our Cavaliers.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: NewsRadio 570, WKBN, and Ron Verb, 330-729-9977. We'll get you
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: through to us on NewsRadio 570, WKBN, 5, what is it,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: 520 in the afternoon. It's been a wet, well, it's
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: been an unusual day. It's been a windy day. It
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: depends where you are. In my neck of the woods,
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: a little bit of a shower this morning. And then
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: cool temperatures for the most part that we're looking at here.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: Let me give you an update. I mean, we're down
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: to 64 degrees. So hasn't this been a strange April
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: and May with all this rain that we're getting, boys
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: and girls? I mean, it's just so damn saturated out there.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: The ground doesn't get a chance to even remotely dry out.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: And that's not good for farmers. That's not good to
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: try to get your grass cut or get anything done
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: outside with how soggy everything is. Because the amount of
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: rain that we're getting, the frequency of rain, and maybe
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: the lack of some sunshine to dry this stuff out
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: is creating all kinds of havoc. And we're already, what,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: almost a week into May already. And it's 64 degrees.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: I don't know. It's been an unusually wet and chilly
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: spring season. in the great states of Ohio. And it's
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: been an unusual year as far as precipitation is concerned.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: But hopefully things will get better as we get to April, May, what,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: into June and July. Maybe we can have some sunny
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: days and go a week without having a bunch of rain.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: Is it possible? Is it possible? Maybe so. We shall see. 522,
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: back with more. Call us on the line. Stand by.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: Blacktown's news, weather, and talk station, 570 WKBN. Well, hidey-ho,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: NewsRadio 570 WKBN, and you're on the air.

  Speaker 4: Hello.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: You know, Ron, I'm very frustrated with this war and
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: the $ 5- a- gallon gas and listening to Republicans complain about both.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, my whole life, since I was 18 years old,
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: I had a job where I had to negotiate with people.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: And I've been doing it my entire life. And Trump
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: is probably one of the best negotiators I've ever seen
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: or ever heard talk. And when you think about it,
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: you know, my wife, my kids, they're frustrated because he
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: says they want to make a deal, they want to
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: make a deal. But there's nobody coming to make a deal.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: He does that because they're thinking to themselves, what is
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: he talking about? And we're saying, what is he talking about?
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: Only he knows what he's talking about. He keeps them
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: off guard. He doesn't say, you know, he doesn't say, well,
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: I'm talking to so-and-so. Like a good example, Biden was
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: supposed to talk to Putin, and Biden said he's a murderer,
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: he's a... You're not going to be a very good
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: negotiating step. You're just adding obstacles to your negotiations if
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: you go in there with that kind of attitude and
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: talk like that. You know, it's give and take. I'm
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: not frustrated because of Trump. I think I'm just frustrated
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: because he hasn't been aggressive enough to me. I wouldn't
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: take this crap from Iran that he's taken. I wouldn't
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: let them drag this out. They're notorious for that. I
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: would just, I wouldn't even tell them to negotiate, Trevor.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: I'd just end it, go back to war, just finish
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: the job. Because the sooner he finishes the job, the
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: better off.
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: We're going to be.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: And it just, I think of all the good stuff
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: the guy's done.
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: And the Guinness in this war, they're saying, you know.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: Netanyahu drug him into war. I don't believe that. I
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: don't think he dragged Donald Trump anywhere. Trump knew something.
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: That Yahoo letter knew something. And they made a move.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: And now you have to live with that decision. And
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: to me, I don't care. The country wants to kill us.
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: I don't care if we kill them first. It doesn't
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: matter to me. I would rather, I would prefer that.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: I feel bad for those people there. But our people
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: in America, if our government was oppressing us, like they're
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: oppressing them, we would stand up and we would fight.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: They're not doing it. I understand why. Government's got all
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: the weapons. But you've got to get creative and they've
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: got to figure out a way to fight for themselves.
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: If they don't, in all honesty, they're better off if
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: we wipe them off the face of the earth. Because
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: the afterlife, I'm sure, will be better than what they're
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: living right.
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: Really?
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: Are you certain of that?
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: I'm absolutely.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: Sure.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: I drive 1,000 miles a week. I pay for 98%
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: of my gas. The way my pay plan was set up,
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: gas was no big deal when they hired me. So
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: I pay for 98% of the gas driving 1,000 miles
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: a week. And I can deal with it. I can
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: deal with it with the gas prices. I don't like it.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: I get frustrated every time I go get gas. But,
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: you know, they hate Trump. They didn't hate him so much.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: You know, they talk about the war powers. Obama, how
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: long did he bomb? There was no war powers. No
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: talk about that. Clinton bombed people. No talk about war powers.
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: But just these moronic, criminal Democrats that are nothing but politics.
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: Their entire life was politics. I think some of them
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: would sacrifice their kids' lives if they could win an election.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: I think that winning the election is more important to
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: them than half of their kids' lives. Because of some
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: of the criminal things they do, the beliefs they have,
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: wrapping their arms around communism. I mean, these people are nuts.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: Stand by for a minute. I want to come back
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: with Nick. It's good to hear his voice back in
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: a minute. News Radio 570 WKVN. All right. So where
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: was Nicholas, Nick?
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: That's not me.
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: Hang on, Nick. I think I lost him.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: That's me.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: All right. So you're not looking at any of this
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: situation going on in Iran negatively. You're giving it all
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: the thumbs up.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, we're Americans. You're supposed to be loyal to
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: your country. You're supposed to be loyal to your president.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Because you have Trump's arrangement system, it just can't be.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, I look at it, I have two sons
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: and I have two grandkids. And I don't want them
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: to have to live in a world where these religious Nazis,
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: like these Iranians, can get a nuclear bomb and destroy
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: them someday. It would be a horrible way to die.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: And that's what they're going to do. Based on us
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: going in there and bombing the hell out of them
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: like we did, they will always remember that. And once
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: they have the ability, they will attack us. There's no
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: doubt in my mind. You have to end them. You
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: just have to do it. I don't even care how
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: you do it, but you have to do it. You know,
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: what happens if we let them off the hook and
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: we get another Joe Biden in the next election? or
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: two elections, and they start building it and they do
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: nothing about it. They're going to remember. These people have
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: memories like elephants. They're going to remember forever. And they're
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: going to want revenge, and they're going to bomb this country.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: I don't think they're going to bomb this country when
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: I'm alive, or my wife, but I think they're going
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: to bomb this country when my grandkids are alive, and
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: possibly my kids. We just have to put an end
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: to them. And if you hate Trump, I don't care
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: if you hate Trump. Trump probably, the truth known, Trump
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: probably hates you. But he's sacrificing the best part of
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: his life to provide for this country, to protect this country,
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: and to make up for all the screw-ups that the
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: Democrats have done. Not only in the presidency, but in Congress,
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: in the Senate, the inflation, everything that they've screwed up.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: He's fighting for you. And you've got to support this guy.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: I know he's doing the right thing because there's so
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: many people that are corrupt in the Democratic Party that
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: want to see him dead. That's how I know he's
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: doing the right thing. They try to kill him on
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: a weekly basis. And that's because he's getting in their wallets.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: He's stopping some of the ways that they're making his
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: money illegal. Look at these Somalians. Look at the Minnesotans.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: Billions of dollars. I know you talk about it a lot,
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: and I agree with you. We're worried about the national debt,
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: $ 34 trillion, $ 35 trillion. Stop the criminal fraud, and you
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: could probably pay the debt off. There's just so much corruption.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: You have to stop corruption. These psychopath Democrats, and you've
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: got some of them that call yourself, they don't have
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: a brain that they use for their own. They listen
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: to other people that hate Trump, preach to them, and
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: tell you what a bad guy Trump is. If you
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: would use your own head and just look logically what
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: he's doing different than anybody else who's ever been president,
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: the way we're treated around the rest of the world,
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: the way we're respected around the rest of the world,
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: that we weren't. Obama goes overseas and he bows down
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: to us. Trump goes over there and pushes him.
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: Out of the way, and then he bows down to him.
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: It's a huge difference. Not just the optics, but the reality. So,
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's just very frustrating to me. They don't
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: back this guy. They want to kill this guy. He's
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: the right guy at the right time. And I believe,
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: as sure as I'm talking to you, that shot in
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: Butler didn't miss him so he could just be a
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: regular president. That shot that missed him in Butler missed
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: him because he's really going to do something special. But
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: you've got to give the guy a chance. And in
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: my opinion, you know, he does this one thing that's
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: questionable to war. And I'm not a war monitor. I
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: wasn't in the military. But he does this one thing
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: that's questionable, and everybody seems like they're turning on him. Oh,
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: my God, we're worried about the midterms. We're worried about
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: the price of gas. I'll trade, I'll pay the gas
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: prices for six more months, because I don't believe you
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: can put a time frame on a war. So I'm
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: willing to pay these inflated prices, even if they go
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: up higher, for six months to ensure my kids and
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: grandkids don't get nuked.
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: I would be willing to do that.
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: That's a very, to me, a very small price to
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: pay for the peace of mind and not knowing these
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: religious Nazis have a nuke or the ability to use
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: a nuke. And I mean, the reality is, but the
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: only place I disagree with Trump... is on the dust,
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: the jugular dust. He's making that a big deal when
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: we get that back.
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: We can monitor that.
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: We can watch that. You know, Russia could sell them
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: a nuke. China could sell them a nuke. North Korea
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: could sell them a nuke. They could eventually get their
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: hands on a nuke, even without any technology of how
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: to do it. So don't stop the negotiations or stop
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: the attacks over the dust. You know, just wipe them out.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: Just wipe them out.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: Maybe leave them some dust when we're done, if you
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: absolutely have to. If you absolutely have to, leave them
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: some of our dust. So, I've just, I've had it.
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: I've had it. This guy does more at 80-some years
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: old in an hour than Biden did in a week.
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: And if these Democrats, with their hatred... And the criminality,
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: if they can't see that and admit as a person,
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: you know, this guy does, he really works his butt off.
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: They can't admit that.
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: They're sick.
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: You know, I spend the time with the Civil War here.
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: I don't care.
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: That's how concerned I am with these corrupt Democrats and
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: the socialists and the communists that are trying to overtake
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: our country. And the Democrats aren't one bit upset about it.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: They're opening their arms. They're embracing this idiot in New York, Bondani.
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: He said, hey, we're broke. We need more money. You
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: haven't done what you said you were going to do
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: when you're broke. I mean, I just don't know. Believe me,
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: I'm not one of your smartest callers, but I don't
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: know how anybody could be dumb enough to vote for
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: a comment. I have no idea how they could even
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: wrap their head around that and try it.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: So do you foresee yourself voting for Sherrod Brown in
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: the general?
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: Maybe when hell freezes over. I wouldn't vote for Sherrod.
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: Sherrod Brown, what did Sherrod Brown do?
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: He backed everything Joe Biden did.
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: He did what Obama wanted. Sherrod Brown did it. I
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: have a buddy for the car business. He's passed away now.
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: But his family's good friends with Sherrod Brown. I can
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: remember him 20 years ago telling me, a great guy,
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: Sherrod Brown. Sherrod Brown hasn't done a damn thing. Nothing
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: except get us in trouble, agree with Biden, and create inflation.
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: That's all they know how to do. They know how
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: to tax you. They know how to collect money. They
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: know how to pass it out to people that benefits
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: them to pass it out to. And then they just
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: rinse and repeat.
• 27:28
  Speaker 5: They do it again.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, you don't need the Democrats. You really don't.
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: They're just, they're mentally ill. When Trump said they're mentally ill,
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: he was absolutely right. And I don't care if you're
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: a really nice person and you go to mass every week.
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: If you vote Democrat, you're an idiot. You're an absolute idiot.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: If you can't see the difference, there's something wrong with you.
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: Because it's right there, plain as day. Hey, I'm not
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: saying all Republicans are saints. I hate the rhinos. You know,
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: I don't like our governor.
• 27:58
  Speaker 5: He's a lion.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: He's a rhino. I'm not crazy about Doom in the Senate.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: I don't like him. He's a rhino. You know, but
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: if you're going to get effective financially, in a bad way,
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: the chances are that's going to happen under the Democrats
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: and not the Republicans. So I'll stick with the Republicans.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: There you go. All right. Enjoyed every bit of it, Nick.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: Thank you. Appreciate it.
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: There he is, man. Words of wisdom from a life
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: of experience. And good old Nick, you're on here.
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: Hey, Warren.
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: How are you?
• 28:32
  Speaker 7: Good.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: Hi, Mike.
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: I hope everything worked its way out yesterday. After, you know,
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: the Ted and Nick, or not Ted and Nick, but Rich.
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: It all works out.
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: It's all going to work out.
• 28:48
  Speaker 7: It's all going to work out.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: All right. Comments, please.
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I just want to go back to your caller,
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: I think, right around 5 o'clock that was talking about the,
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: you know, businesses paying taxes and all that other stuff. Yes.
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: I think that was around 5. Let me ask you
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: a question. So, because you're a business owner and you
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: said you stroked a lot of checks out to the government,
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: how do you get that money to write a check
• 29:19
  Speaker 4: out for your tax?
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: Right. I mean, a business has to do... They make
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: it difficult for business anymore in a lot of cases
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: to function. I mean, listen, I don't totally disagree with
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: that guy in a sense of... What he is saying
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: is you can't take all the taxes away from business. Like,
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: for example, I thought just when he was making a point,
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: if you eliminate property taxes, now if Walmart or Home
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: Depot aren't paying property taxes, are you going to shift
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: all that burden to the individual? And that is a
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: fair point to make, to say we're going to let
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: them off the hook and they're not going to pay that.
• 29:58
  Speaker 4: Okay. Can I stop you real quick?
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: Sure.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: Absolutely.
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: Where does the money come from that they pay that?
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: Isn't the individual already paying the freight?
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: Well, you can make that argument, but needless to say,
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: it never seems like it washes out that way, that
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: your prices go dramatically down because we eliminate that. I mean,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: you would like to think, oh, the prices have come
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: down because they don't have to pay that burden, but
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: it doesn't seem like it works out that way, and
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: you just get more taxes put on you. I think
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: his point is legitimate, because on paper it looks good.
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: Yes, on paper, but in all reality... you know, we
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: as consumers pay 100% of the tax bill of a corporation. So,
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: you know, I'm just trying to think of how we
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: can streamline this and cut out the middleman, which would
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: be the, you know, the company. Just put the entire
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: burden where the consumer or slash taxpayer... He's it.
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: Well, his argument, his argument, and there's there's a certain
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: amount of justification to it. He's saying that the state
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: of Iowa has cut business tax so dramatically. And like
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: I said, paper, you're not getting a savings from that.
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: And it's been shifted.
• 31:26
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: And it's been shifted to the individual dramatically. And there
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: is truth to that.
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: But if your taxes, if you could run on, I'm
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: not going to charge, I'm not going to have any
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: of you people pay taxes. It's just going to be
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: all on corporations. Well, you know, I could see a
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: lot of people voting for that, but not knowing what
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: their tax bill truly is. And that's a big problem
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: in this country, because we've got all these programs that
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: need to be funded. Most of them... people would not
• 32:03
  Speaker 4: fund if they had to write it directly out of
• 32:06
  Speaker 4: their pocket.
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: Well, I would agree with that, with the exception of
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: the people that... You've got so many people that are
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: on the dole that vote in their best interest because
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: they're not paying it, they're benefiting from it.
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: Sure. Sure. So just put it on the individual. They
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: think that, you know.
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: I mean, you look at New York or Virginia, and
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: what are these trying to do? They want to take
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: from productive people and shift it to non-productive people. Well,
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: how long are you supposed to do that? How much
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: more can you take? At what point do you say
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: to a non-productive person, get off your arse and go
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: do something? Where is personal responsibility?
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: The incentive to stay there on the couch.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 33:04
  Speaker 6: Right?
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: I mean, that's the bottom line. But in the end,
• 33:10
  Speaker 4: you know, when they come out and they go, oh, corporations,
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: they don't pay any taxes. You know, we're going to
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: jack up the corporate rate. And, you know, now you've
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: got this. I would like to take... All of these
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: weapons that our elected officials use to bludgeon us and
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: separate us, you know, into different groups. Because as we've
• 33:34
  Speaker 4: been separated, it's a lot easier to be picked off.
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: And right now, the productive, they're getting picked off. The non-productive, yeah,
• 33:45
  Speaker 4: you know, they just raise their, you know... We'll give
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: them some more food stamps or, you know, whatever, SNAP benefits,
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: whatever it is these days. I don't have a clue.
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: But we'll make sure that the corporations, that these people
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: think that the corporations are paying for it. So it
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: doesn't compute. In the end, the taxes only come out
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: of the productive pocket, not the... You know, I don't
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: want to say, well, I will say the freeloader, okay,
• 34:20
  Speaker 4: because that's white collar as well. Only the productive, that's
• 34:27
  Speaker 4: the only place to get any kind of tax revenue. Now,
• 34:33
  Speaker 4: I don't want to go crazy on this, but, and
• 34:38
  Speaker 4: I'm sick and tired of, you know, people thinking that
• 34:41
  Speaker 4: they need, that everybody needs to have blind allegiance to Trump. Sure. Sure.
• 34:45
  Speaker 4: I'm satisfied that Trump's our president, but I want a
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: whole lot more. And, you know, I'm not worried about
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: so much a nuclear weapon right away, but the tyranny
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: that these globalists want to put on us, that scares
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: me way more than, you know, some Iranian with a
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: button for the nuclear button on his desk.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: All right, so it's different priorities.
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: Exactly. I mean, it really is. I mean, we've got
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: 182 days now until the midterms. Okay, it's going to
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: be a bloodbath if we don't get the economy. And
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: I don't mean just this inflationary pressure from this war. Okay,
• 35:43
  Speaker 4: if we don't get that taken care of. And also
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: the SAVE Act. Those need to be– the SAVE Act
• 35:55
  Speaker 4: really needs to be taken care of right away.
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and Trump says you've got to get rid of
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: the filibuster for whatever reason to be able to get
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: it done.
• 36:06
  Speaker 4: I've been on the fence on that, but you know what?
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: He claims the Democrats would do it, so you might
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: as well.
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: I tend to agree with him. And, you know, the
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: other thing is when Trump's negotiating, what's he negotiating with?
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: probably some of your freedoms or your tax dollars. So
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: remember that, you know, when we're, um, you know, you
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: can't criticize, uh, president Trump. He's not dead as of recently.
• 36:35
  Speaker 4: He hasn't been, and maybe G2 will touch on this.
• 36:38
  Speaker 4: If that's the road you guys want to go down. But, uh,
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: as far as, you know, the privacy and, uh, you know, this,
• 36:45
  Speaker 4: this kill switch on these cars, um, You know, that's
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: a dangerous road to go down.
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: All right, Ron.
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: All right. Well, I'll let you go. You can get
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: a few other callers, and hopefully we get a G2 appearance.
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: I'm hoping. At 6, I thank you. NewsRadio 570 WKBN.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: You're on the air. How's it going, Ron?
• 37:08
  Speaker 4: Good. Thank you.
• 37:10
  Speaker 7: I just wanted to mention about the previous caller here.
• 37:15
  Speaker 7: When we look at Obama and the countries without congressional
• 37:20
  Speaker 7: approval that were bombed, the Democrats are constantly saying, Trump
• 37:29
  Speaker 7: is bombing Iran without congressional approval. I want to say something.
• 37:35
  Speaker 7: I come from a long line of military... family my
• 37:40
  Speaker 7: my grandfather my great-grandfather all the way back world war
• 37:44
  Speaker 7: two to now all the way back to civil war
• 37:48

• 37:51
  Speaker 7: now that obama.
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: Or sit tight sit tight for a minute just sit
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: tight i'll come right back to you after the break

• 38:16
  Speaker 9: How are you doing? What's going on today?
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: I am well, sir. Thank you. Your assessment of the wild,
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: wacky world.
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 38:27
  Speaker 9: I just briefly heard earlier today, first of all, that
• 38:30
  Speaker 9: guy that is getting his heart looked at. I want
• 38:33
  Speaker 9: to send him some good thoughts and hope he does
• 38:37
  Speaker 9: well with his exploratory. And the gentleman, the first gentleman
• 38:42
  Speaker 9: that called in, I like that he defended himself. boss lady.
• 38:48
  Speaker 9: And again, we'll leave it at that. I don't want
• 38:50
  Speaker 9: to dwell on it today. So I hope, and again, yesterday,
• 38:54
  Speaker 9: I maybe should apologize to Ted because it was maybe
• 38:59
  Speaker 9: not my place to really say anything like that, but
• 39:01
  Speaker 9: I expected more from him. So if anything, I hope
• 39:05
  Speaker 9: he can take it as a positive that I was
• 39:10
  Speaker 9: pretty hard on him.
• 39:12
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: Well, Ted's a good man. Ted's a good man. I
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: enjoy talking to him. I enjoy his perspective on things.
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: He brings a lot to the program. And I think
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: some of the points that have been made are some
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: good constructive criticism that I'm going to invoke.
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: Sure.
• 39:29
  Speaker 9: And then you defend everybody as long as they're right.
• 39:33
  Speaker 9: I mean, on both sides. And I again, that's why
• 39:36
  Speaker 9: I like you so much. You said you're you're you're
• 39:38
  Speaker 9: you're a pretty honest guy.
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: And well, you can disagree with somebody's thoughts or opinions,
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: but attacking them on a personal level, that's that's unacceptable.
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: The only person that can attack on a personal level
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: is me. Right?
• 39:51
  Speaker 9: You know, you keep us all grounded.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 39:57
  Speaker 9: Thank God there's people.
• 39:59
  Speaker 4: Thank God there's you in our lives.
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: I keep you centered. And like I say to all
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: of them, I'm sorry you might not say it. I
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: said nobody's taking more guff than Fort Lauderdale, Frank, and J.J.
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: the Liberal.
• 40:10
  Speaker 4: Period.
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: End of story.
• 40:11
  Speaker 4: These guys don't deserve.
• 40:13
  Speaker 9: Thanks, maybe not so much, but half of mine are deserved.
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: All right, J.J., I got to go.
• 40:22
  Speaker 8: From ABC News, I'm Chuck Sievertson. Another effort to try
• 40:26
  Speaker 8: to free up Iran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz,
• 40:29
  Speaker 8: which analysts say is making oil and gasoline.
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: Prices go up.
• 40:32
  Speaker 4: The U.S.
• 40:32
  Speaker 8: Will forward a new draft resolution before the U.N. Security
• 40:35
  Speaker 8: Council to mandate no sea mines, no tolls, no restrictions
• 40:39
  Speaker 8: by Iran in the Strait, says Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: This is what Iran is saying.
• 40:44
  Speaker 4: We will shut down the straits.
• 40:45
  Speaker 10: No one can go through, no country in the world
• 40:47
  Speaker 10: can go through unless we allow you to go through
• 40:49
  Speaker 10: and you have to pay us.
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: But our ships can go through, meaning the Iranian ships,
• 40:53
  Speaker 4: as much as they want.
• 40:54
  Speaker 7: That's crazy.
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: Who would agree to that?
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: U.S.
• 40:56
  Speaker 8: Military under what officials call Project Freedom is... offering to
• 40:59
  Speaker 8: protect commercial ships through the strait, ABC's Tom Sufi-Burrage in
• 41:03
  Speaker 8: Tel Aviv.
• 41:04
  Speaker 10: The question is, will those shipping companies, will the crews
• 41:07
  Speaker 10: on board feel more confident enough, given the exchange of
• 41:10
  Speaker 10: fire yesterday, in the coming days to make that trip?
• 41:12
  Speaker 11: Oil has moved on these big tankers, and those tankers
• 41:15
  Speaker 11: are run by companies, and companies are worried that if
• 41:17
  Speaker 11: they cross the strait right now, they could get attacked.
• 41:20
  Speaker 11: It is just too big of a risk for them
• 41:22
  Speaker 11: right now. They do not have much assurance, and until
• 41:24
  Speaker 11: they really feel comfortable, We're not going to see that
• 41:27
  Speaker 11: oil start moving, really, it seems, at the pace that
• 41:29
  Speaker 11: it was anywhere close to before the start of this war.
• 41:31
  Speaker 8: ABC's Elizabeth Schulze. An update on the shooting incident between

• 41:44
  Speaker 12: He starts running, and as he's running, he pulls a
• 41:47
  Speaker 12: gun and starts shooting at the Secret Service. They return fire.
• 41:52
  Speaker 10: Janine Pirro tells ABC News the injured suspect, 45-year-old Michael Marks,

• 42:04
