Fridays with Jack Windsor - Stop hating on Vivek !! · Brian Thomas

0:00
Speaker 1: To you in a very well happy Father's Day. All
0:03
Speaker 1: the dad's out there coming up on Sunday, and without
0:06
Speaker 1: further ado, it's that time of the week we get
0:07
Speaker 1: to talk to the Ohio Pressnetwork dot COM's Jack Windsor.
0:11
Speaker 1: Jack Welcome back to the fifty five Carssey Morning Show.
0:13
Speaker 2: My friends.
0:13
Speaker 1: Always, I love having you on the show.
0:15
Speaker 3: Brian, It's always an honor and pleasure to be here
0:18
Speaker 3: with you and the listeners.
0:19
Speaker 2: Thank you for choosing me.
0:20
Speaker 1: I'm glad your topic number one is something that's really
0:23
Speaker 1: irking me and has been irking me because I have
0:27
Speaker 1: from the lips of people who feel this way, and
0:30
Speaker 1: most recently, based on a post I saw on Facebook
0:32
Speaker 1: for one of the most men, the men I most
0:34
Speaker 1: respect in my entire education career, a man who had
0:38
Speaker 1: the most profound influence on me in education chime in
0:42
Speaker 1: on Facebook and I'm sorry I'm boiling it down if
0:44
Speaker 1: I misquoting, but I just it really blew me away
0:47
Speaker 1: that he would have this attitude. He is not, under
0:49
Speaker 1: any circumstances going to vote for doctor Amy Acton made
0:52
Speaker 1: that very eminently clear. However, maybe sitting out voting for
0:57
Speaker 1: governor at all because for whatever reason, And I guess
1:00
Speaker 1: vvig Ramaswami isn't perfect, or isn't great, He's willing to
1:03
Speaker 1: throw out good for the sake of great or has
1:05
Speaker 1: some other concern about vvig Ramaswami, who I respect for
1:10
Speaker 1: this job. I mean, woke incorporated the book, his education background,
1:14
Speaker 1: what he's been able to accomplish from business, what his
1:16
Speaker 1: ideas are for the state of Ohio. He has a
1:20
Speaker 1: vested interest in bringing about some greatness in our state
1:22
Speaker 1: and making us more competitive.
1:24
Speaker 2: And he doesn't need the job.
1:25
Speaker 1: Jack, You know what I'm saying. There's something really I
1:27
Speaker 1: think great about a guy who's willing to dedicate some
1:29
Speaker 1: of his time after being successful in business and wanting
1:32
Speaker 1: to come back and maybe give something back to the
1:34
Speaker 1: state that he really that he became so successful in Jack.
1:38
Speaker 1: But I hear some people putting aside his particular comments
1:43
Speaker 1: about maybe sitting it out, but also that they won't
1:45
Speaker 1: vote for him because he's a person of color and
1:48
Speaker 1: because he is Hindu. The first thing I say about
1:51
Speaker 1: the latter point is, we don't live in a theocracy.
1:53
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter what religion. We went through this with
1:55
Speaker 1: Jack Kennedy back when he was voted president. Oh my god,
1:57
Speaker 1: we're going to lookt a Catholic president. The Pope's going
2:00
Speaker 1: to rule the United States of America. Yeah, we got
2:02
Speaker 1: over that. And it wasn't a thing. Jack. I'm sorry
2:03
Speaker 1: had been long winded, but this one's gotten none of
2:06
Speaker 1: my skin.
2:07
Speaker 3: I don't blame you, and I'm gonna actually add some
2:12
Speaker 3: fuel to the fire here. Yesterday, Tulsi Gabbard, in her
2:17
Speaker 3: parting shot to the deep state, released files never seen
2:22
Speaker 3: before on doctor Anthony Fauci, claiming that he funneled millions
2:28
Speaker 3: in tax dollars into gain a function research at the
2:31
Speaker 3: Wuhan Lab light his rear end off about lab league origins,
2:36
Speaker 3: and straight up perjured himself to Congress in twenty twenty four.
2:39
Speaker 2: And you go, well, why does that matter?
2:41
Speaker 3: Because female Fauci, Amy Acton, was running Ohio and using
2:46
Speaker 3: the same level of secrecy and guilting, blaming, shaming, and
2:50
Speaker 3: canceling people who went against the narrative. And I look
2:54
Speaker 3: at that and realized that Amy Acton should not run
2:58
Speaker 3: a bake sale a be the governor of the state
3:01
Speaker 3: of Ohio. And you go, okay, so is this another
3:04
Speaker 3: one of those lesser of two evils. I don't see
3:07
Speaker 3: it that way, Brian. I do believe that there are
3:12
Speaker 3: there's a certain level of groping, if I may call it,
3:17
Speaker 3: that gropers are real, and some of them reside on
3:21
Speaker 3: the right side of the political spectrum.
3:23
Speaker 2: I think that you're seeing some of that. But you're right.
3:27
Speaker 3: This is not a theocracy. This is a representative constitutional republic,
3:33
Speaker 3: and the idea is to elect people who can carry
3:38
Speaker 3: out the policy decisions that you believe are going to
3:42
Speaker 3: be better to run in this instance, the state of Ohio.
3:45
Speaker 2: And it always strikes.
3:47
Speaker 3: Me a little bit odd that, and I consider myself
3:51
Speaker 3: a Protestant Christian evangelical that some evangelicals, or at least
3:56
Speaker 3: people who are trying to influence the evangelical, say, well,
3:59
Speaker 3: he's not a Christian and he has a funny last name,
4:03
Speaker 3: And I say, well, last I checked. Donald Trump was
4:06
Speaker 3: a prominent Democrat for a long time. And though he
4:10
Speaker 3: does credit God a lot, and I know that he
4:13
Speaker 3: allows people to pray for him, looking back to when
4:15
Speaker 3: he had his rise to power as a presidential candidate,
4:19
Speaker 3: I wouldn't have said with confidence that he was a
4:21
Speaker 3: strong Christian. Yet that did not seem to matter. So
4:24
Speaker 3: it's odd to me now that it does.
4:27
Speaker 1: What more can anyone say on that? You know, and
4:29
Speaker 1: when you move over to what truly matters jack policy,
4:35
Speaker 1: go up and down the line. What does V. V.
4:37
Speaker 1: Ramasomi want for Ohio? And where does anybody have any
4:40
Speaker 1: objection to the prosperity he wants to bring to Ohio
4:43
Speaker 1: And in the mechanisms by which he plans on bringing
4:45
Speaker 1: that prosperity, like opening up and you know, get some
4:49
Speaker 1: easier regulations or lightning the regulations on energy production. You know,
4:52
Speaker 1: he's a big, small, modular reactor guy. Let's bring those online.
4:55
Speaker 1: Let's get more businesses and revenue in the state of Ohio.
4:58
Speaker 1: There's a lot of ways we can bring that about.
4:59
Speaker 1: And really, I would think popular among conservatives who otherwise
5:03
Speaker 1: want lower taxes. He's got the ideas about property taxes
5:07
Speaker 1: and income taxes. I mean, I don't know what more
5:10
Speaker 1: people are looking for. And again I'll go back to it.
5:12
Speaker 1: They'll throw out the good for the sake of great
5:14
Speaker 1: because there is not a single politician that falls into
5:17
Speaker 1: the latter category.
5:19
Speaker 3: No, And I think some one that we often put
5:21
Speaker 3: on a pedestal on the right would be Ronald Reagan clearly,
5:26
Speaker 3: and I was a big Reagan fan, But let's look
5:29
Speaker 3: back at his career and listen, I'm not saying this
5:30
Speaker 3: to disparage him, but big pharma and the protections that
5:34
Speaker 3: they have really started under Ronald Reagan. So you can
5:37
Speaker 3: look back and go, well, maybe he didn't get it
5:39
Speaker 3: perfectly correct, but damn he did a good job the
5:42
Speaker 3: other eighty percent of the time. And I think that's
5:45
Speaker 3: one of the predicaments the Conservatives find themselves in here.
5:48
Speaker 3: You may not agree with everything the THEAG does, but
5:51
Speaker 3: do you want a full blown socialist who walks arm
5:55
Speaker 3: in arm with Hillary Clinton's twenty sixteen campaign lawyer Mark
5:59
Speaker 3: Elias talking about Amy Acton, I mean, the choice is.
6:02
Speaker 1: Clear, and sitting it out is a vote for Amy Acton.
6:06
Speaker 1: That's the only way I can conclude Jack winsor especially
6:09
Speaker 1: given how close the polling end, which also disturbs me
6:11
Speaker 1: that the polling is so close in a particularly red
6:14
Speaker 1: state like Ohio. Don't go away, Jack's gonna give us
6:16
Speaker 1: some information about the FBI and Ohio voting frauds. Some
6:19
Speaker 1: subpoenas have been issued, got some shenanigans maybe going on
6:22
Speaker 1: plus He's also going to be speaking at the America
6:25
Speaker 1: two fifty celebration. We heard from Donald and Neil earlier
6:27
Speaker 1: in the week about that in Columbus on Monday. More
6:29
Speaker 1: with Jack Winsor from the Ohio Pressnetwork dot com Don't go.
6:32
Speaker 2: Away fifty five KRC. Please be advised you may want
6:36
Speaker 2: to stop eating the following foods immediately Space.
6:41
Speaker 1: Eight fifty five KRCD talk station, the Ohio Press Network
6:45
Speaker 1: dot com where you find Jack Windsor and a lot
6:48
Speaker 1: of contributing reporters and some great stories, mostly focused on
6:51
Speaker 1: Ohio issues. And Jack's gonna be talking to us about this.
6:53
Speaker 1: This FBI investigating the Ohio Organizing Collaborative. Apparently they did.
7:02
Speaker 1: They issued a search warrant and did a search of
7:04
Speaker 1: this organization. And immediately it's like, wait a second. In
7:07
Speaker 1: order to issue a search warrant, you need probable cause
7:10
Speaker 1: that a crime has been committed, and you need to
7:12
Speaker 1: convince a judge of that. And I know sometimes judges
7:14
Speaker 1: are a little leaning or light on that, but you
7:17
Speaker 1: have to have evidence of the commission of a crime
7:19
Speaker 1: to justify searching any organization. Jack, we don't usually get much,
7:24
Speaker 1: if by way of any details from the FBI in
7:26
Speaker 1: quote unquote ongoing investigation. So in this case, do we
7:30
Speaker 1: because I know they broadened their searches related to this
7:33
Speaker 1: Ohio organization and just served one of their financial backers
7:38
Speaker 1: with a subpoena, which is just a request for documents
7:42
Speaker 1: and information, not a search warrant. So where are we
7:44
Speaker 1: break it down for my listening audience to me?
7:45
Speaker 2: Jack? Yeah, thank you, Brian.
7:48
Speaker 3: What we know FBI agents executed a search at Cleveland
7:51
Speaker 3: offices of the Ohio Organizing Collaborative, which is a progressive
7:55
Speaker 3: nonprofit heavily involved in voter registration and voting rights work, is.
7:59
Speaker 2: What they say.
8:00
Speaker 3: Agents seized documents, computers, electronic devices, and they also fanned
8:04
Speaker 3: out across the state, showing up at staff and volunteer
8:08
Speaker 3: homes with subpoenas and questioning people connected to the group's
8:11
Speaker 3: canvassing operations. Now, the search warrant remains under seal, which
8:16
Speaker 3: is standard in active federal investigations, and a week later,
8:20
Speaker 3: as of today, many questions are still unanswered and additional
8:24
Speaker 3: document requests or subpoenas are reportedly still outstanding. But that's
8:29
Speaker 3: really common practice, and it appears to me, Brian, I
8:34
Speaker 3: have to be careful because I don't want to impede
8:37
Speaker 3: an investigation and I don't want to lead folks astray.
8:40
Speaker 3: I did a lot of calling around last week and
8:43
Speaker 3: over the weekend, and what I've been able to learn
8:46
Speaker 3: it this is a pretty serious federal action and we
8:50
Speaker 3: should probably let the FBI and prosecutors do their job.
8:53
Speaker 3: Some members of the mainstream press, as you know you've
8:56
Speaker 3: seen my social media posts, are clamoring about what we
8:59
Speaker 3: still don't know much, and that's really standard fair. The
9:04
Speaker 3: investigation appears centered on the group's large scale voter registration efforts,
9:09
Speaker 3: and the Ohio Organizing Collaborative and its affiliates have been
9:13
Speaker 3: responsible for adding tens of thousands of voters. Reports site
9:16
Speaker 3: nearly one hundred and sixty thousand and two hundred or
9:19
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty four a loan through their canvassing drives.
9:22
Speaker 3: So progressive organization registers voters we know, for example, in
9:27
Speaker 3: the Hamilton County area at one point there were some
9:32
Speaker 3: just knowingly fraudulent people who were signed up a former
9:36
Speaker 3: US Secretary of State who was since debt or had
9:41
Speaker 3: had passed on already, and many forms were turned over.
9:45
Speaker 3: They all had the same handwriting. Interestingly, yet they represented
9:49
Speaker 3: a bevy of alleged voters who had registered. So those
9:53
Speaker 3: are the types of things they're looking into. Is the
9:55
Speaker 3: best that I can determine is.
9:56
Speaker 1: This FBI investigation was it launched as a consequence of
9:59
Speaker 1: Frank lero deep dive into this and his audit that
10:02
Speaker 1: determined that there were in fact illegal folks that they
10:05
Speaker 1: had no legal right to vote, that actually did vote,
10:08
Speaker 1: and that there were some irregularities, if not outright fraud
10:11
Speaker 1: in terms of the voter registration that he uncovered in
10:14
Speaker 1: his audit.
10:16
Speaker 3: I think that, Yeah, Frank is not willing to I
10:21
Speaker 3: think talk a lot about that, and I respect that.
10:24
Speaker 3: And by the way, Frank is a Green Beret, so
10:26
Speaker 3: he's Special Forces and he understands communications and intelligence operations.
10:30
Speaker 3: But more than a year before the raid, I want
10:33
Speaker 3: to go back in early twenty twenty five, the FBI
10:35
Speaker 3: had already reached out to Cuyahoga County, which is for
10:38
Speaker 3: your listeners, they probably already know Cleveland area. They reached
10:42
Speaker 3: out to election officials. They're asking about voter registration forms
10:45
Speaker 3: submitted by Black Fork Strategies, a firm that's owned by
10:48
Speaker 3: one of the Ohio organizing collaboratives founders and county officials
10:53
Speaker 3: had filed complaints about those forms with the state during
10:56
Speaker 3: that June eleventh raid. In those searches, agents specifically questioned
11:00
Speaker 3: people about potential voter registration fraud or irregularities. So this
11:06
Speaker 3: is not a new concern in Ohio. I think some
11:08
Speaker 3: of it probably does tie to Larro's although I can't
11:11
Speaker 3: say that definitively.
11:15
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I understand you can't say it infintive,
11:17
Speaker 1: That's okay, But I know that he did a he
11:19
Speaker 1: researched this and investigated and actually came up with the goods.
11:24
Speaker 1: And I think there were a one hundred and sixty
11:25
Speaker 1: four or some seemingly small amount of actually identified for
11:29
Speaker 1: illegal votes. But any if it can be done, I
11:34
Speaker 1: think that's the fundamental point. And most notably if you
11:36
Speaker 1: look at Ohio, maybe it's a very very small number,
11:39
Speaker 1: but we're pretty good about keeping our voting roles polished
11:42
Speaker 1: up and accurate, I mean, better than many states. In
11:45
Speaker 1: contrast that with a state like California, where they don't
11:47
Speaker 1: even lift a finger to find out, so you know
11:50
Speaker 1: what's going on if it can happen here, and when
11:53
Speaker 1: we do scrutinize it to some degree. It can happen
11:55
Speaker 1: anywhere and probably is, which is well. I'll throw in
11:58
Speaker 1: a word for the Save Act, which seems like it
12:00
Speaker 1: seems to be dead on arrival in the Senate for
12:02
Speaker 1: reasons unknown to me. Jack Windsor pause, wer bring Jack back.
12:05
Speaker 1: He's going to be speaking on Monday at the two
12:07
Speaker 1: to fifty celebration AFP for Americans for Prosperity was on
12:11
Speaker 1: the show program earlier this week talking about it. I
12:13
Speaker 1: don't know if it's too late to get a bus
12:14
Speaker 1: ride from George Brennman over it Restore Liberty dot Us,
12:17
Speaker 1: but I know he had chartered a bus. Maybe there's
12:19
Speaker 1: still a seat available if you don't want to drive yourself.
12:22
Speaker 1: We'll talk to Jack about that fun thing going on
12:24
Speaker 1: on Monday after this break fifty five KRC men if
12:29
Speaker 1: eight fifty to fifty five KRC DE talk station on
12:31
Speaker 1: a Friday, It's a happy time of week for me.
12:35
Speaker 1: Jack Windsor from the Hot Press Network finishes up the
12:37
Speaker 1: show with us every week, geting at ay thirty. I
12:39
Speaker 1: recommend you check out his website and bookmark. You'd be
12:42
Speaker 1: glad you did. The Ohio Pressnetwork dot Com, great reporting
12:44
Speaker 1: and some wonderful collection of articles, and you'll see what
12:47
Speaker 1: Jack has to say about a lot of topics, and
12:49
Speaker 1: he does speak with a whole lot of people and
12:50
Speaker 1: tries to get the inside skinny on it. But he
12:52
Speaker 1: also is going to speak at the America two fifty
12:55
Speaker 1: Celebration in Columbus coming up on Monday. We had Donovan
12:57
Speaker 1: and Neil for Americans for Prosperity on earlier this week
12:59
Speaker 1: talk talking about it. Jack, and I'm excited for you.
13:02
Speaker 1: I appreciate you getting the invitation and you got some
13:04
Speaker 1: good company you're going to be with. Tell us all
13:06
Speaker 1: about it.
13:07
Speaker 3: I am humbled and honored. It's themed one small step,
13:12
Speaker 3: but as I said yesterday, the America two undred and
13:16
Speaker 3: fifty Celebration is not being locked in DC and you
13:21
Speaker 3: can come out to Columbus, Ohio and enjoy an incredible celebration.
13:26
Speaker 3: Columbus has been selected as one of twelve stops across
13:29
Speaker 3: the country to celebrate America's two hundred and fiftieth birthday
13:34
Speaker 3: that has been put together by Americans for Prosperity, the
13:36
Speaker 3: Libre Initiative, Concerned Veterans for America and you'll hear from
13:41
Speaker 3: people like Kelly Williams Bowler, an Akron mom who crossed
13:47
Speaker 3: a school boundary to give her daughters a better future
13:50
Speaker 3: and paid a price no parent should ever pay.
13:53
Speaker 2: She was actually arrested for that.
13:55
Speaker 1: Every time I hear the summary of that story, it
13:58
Speaker 1: just sent chills down my spine. We live in this
14:00
Speaker 1: sort of I don't know, militant, militaristic attitude towards schools.
14:05
Speaker 1: I mean, you will not leave, you will not cross
14:07
Speaker 1: this border.
14:08
Speaker 3: You know. Yeah, it's crazy. And she took that one
14:12
Speaker 3: small step, and there she is. And then Brian Anderson,
14:15
Speaker 3: a triple amputee who refused to let a battlefield define
14:20
Speaker 3: his limits. Brian's story of perseverance is the American spirit
14:24
Speaker 3: in its purest form. He's a combat veteran, obviously Purple
14:28
Speaker 3: Heart recipient, actor and author Brad Friedel, whom I'll get
14:33
Speaker 3: to talk with during a fireside chat at the event,
14:36
Speaker 3: is the United States men's national team goalkeeper from back
14:40
Speaker 3: in the day has competed in the World Cup. Coffee Anderson,
14:45
Speaker 3: a country music artist known for his hit song Mystery, Red,
14:51
Speaker 3: White and Blue, and a host of other people will
14:54
Speaker 3: be there, and the goal really is to celebrate the freest,
14:57
Speaker 3: greatest country on the planet. Ryan, I have to tell
15:01
Speaker 3: you this real quick because interviewing Brad Friedel will be fun.
15:05
Speaker 3: And there's a really interesting tie in here for the
15:07
Speaker 3: folks who are soccer fans watching the World Cup right now.
15:11
Speaker 3: I don't know if you're paying attention online, but there
15:13
Speaker 3: are some of your Europeans who are here.
15:15
Speaker 2: And they're going, well, wait a minute.
15:17
Speaker 3: We were fed a bill of goods where I'm from
15:20
Speaker 3: that says America is this way, but I come here
15:23
Speaker 3: and I love this place. That's the kind of spirit
15:25
Speaker 3: that we're going to celebrate on Monday the twenty second.
15:27
Speaker 1: You know, Jack, I was just gonna say, you're finishing
15:30
Speaker 1: your thought. I had already put a question in my
15:32
Speaker 1: mind to ask you when you're speaking with him. Since
15:34
Speaker 1: he has played in World Cup soccer games, I imagine
15:37
Speaker 1: he is quite the world traveler, has been all over
15:40
Speaker 1: the place on different pitches, playing different games in different countries.
15:43
Speaker 1: Ask him to compare whatever countries he's been to to
15:47
Speaker 1: the United States. Is there any country out there that
15:49
Speaker 1: does it better, that has it better, that it is
15:52
Speaker 1: superior in any way, shape or for the United States
15:54
Speaker 1: and on maybe some category it might be possible, but
15:58
Speaker 1: the rest, I mean, you gotta understand the rest the
16:00
Speaker 1: world lives as though they're in third world status compared
16:04
Speaker 1: to the way we live. I think we don't appreciate
16:06
Speaker 1: how good we've got it here, Jack.
16:08
Speaker 3: We really don't. And at the end of the day,
16:11
Speaker 3: you and I are probably blessed with more of a
16:14
Speaker 3: libertarian bent.
16:16
Speaker 2: That's me.
16:16
Speaker 3: And people will tell us what they value right. They
16:19
Speaker 3: vote with their feet. People still want to come to
16:23
Speaker 3: America by numbers that are not even closely compared when
16:27
Speaker 3: you look at other countries. America is still the cats
16:30
Speaker 3: mew And as many problems as we believe that we
16:33
Speaker 3: have and we do, we have to get some things
16:36
Speaker 3: right here. We have to really stave off this toxic
16:39
Speaker 3: progressive movement that has marched through our institutions for forty years.
16:43
Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, this is still
16:45
