• 2:12
  Speaker 1: with Brian James Malworth Financial. Who is Kevin wash the
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Trump nominee for FED chair? Good Man bad man. We'll
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: hear what Brian has to say Trump child savings accounts,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: which I think are good thing. I don't know where
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Brian is on that I considering its investment and getting
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: young people aware of the whole idea of compounding interest.
• 2:31

• 2:35
  Speaker 1: have Brian James. Come on, let him know, We'll let
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: us know what he's thinking. Plus Trump's idea of using
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: four one case for housing down payments. What do you
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: think Brian would say about that bad idea? Yeah, that's
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: the sum and substance. We'll get to that again at
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: eight oh five. What is okay real quick here? Since
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: it's Monday and I do have a stack, and a
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: stupid coming up at the five o'clock hours is typically
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: the case. Let's be here with your phone calls always
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Trump the stack is stupid, far more important. But since
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: it is Monday, I just had to get this out
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: because it's just it's backcrap insanity. We all know what
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: opinions are like. If you need an excuse to not
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: work as hard, Joe Stracker here, you go listen to
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: zulkif Flee Hassan. Are you familiar with zue Keiflee's work,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Joe the Malaysian Minister of Religious Affairs. I know you
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: follow his newsletter and you follow him on x Facebook
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Pals Are you Anyway? Apparently last week he suggested that
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: work stress, work stress pushes people into alternative sexual lifestyles,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: namely homosexuality. Uh uh, says it a written reply. It's
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: a bit about a parliament of Malaysia. The minut mister
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: listed quote work stress close quote as one of several
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: supposed drivers of LGBT behavior. Quote, societal influence, sexual experiences,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: work stress, and other personal factors come under this category
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: of possible causes. Apparently not the first time he's done this.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Had made similar remarks in a televised interview earlier last
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: week Bangkok Post reporting, he argued exhaustion from overwork can,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: in his word, dominate the mind, and his word potentially
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: lead to changes and sexual orientation. He is from Malaysia,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: Joe specifically, Oh Bangkok. Oh, that's what you're wanting me
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: to say? All right? Fair enough, Joe. Well, that does
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: kind of dovetail quite nicely into the subject matter of
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: the article. I must observe high comedy as always from
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: the executive producer of the If You FI Have Casey
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Mornings show, pivoting back over to.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: This who can argue.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: Back over to West Virginia. Where the hell are the
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: blue haired old women in West Virginia? Don't they have any?
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: ICE officials arrested more than six hundred and fifty illegal
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: islands across West Virginia. This during a two week operation.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: And here's the favorite part from Joe, conducted in coordination
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: with local law enforcement agencies and without protests. What yesterday's
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: press release from ICE operation ran from fifth to January
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: to nineteenth to January, and congratulations, we are in February already.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: I just can't believe that anyway. Involved fourteen federal, state,
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: and local law enforcement partners, specifically, ICE went to Charleston,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Martins Burke, Beckley, Moorefield, Morgantown, and Huntington, arrested more than
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: six hundred and fifty as I mentioned, including individuals ICE
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: said post threats to public safety and national security, as
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: well as others who go to the country illegally. Court
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: of the Statement Director Michael Rose, that person the ICE
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Enforcement and Removal Operations Philadelphia Acting Field Director. We've got
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: one of those. What a title. He's probably got an
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: extra large business card for that one. Anyway, this operation
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: demonstrates how strong partnerships between ICE and West Virginia law
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: enforcement agencies enhance public safety and the integrity of our
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: immigration system. How about that by training and supporting our
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: partners across the state, we've expanded local capacity to identify, arrest,
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: and process illegal aliens while ensuring these authorities are exercised
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: professionally and consistent with the law. Huh isn't that the
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: way it's supposed to be? Love this one of the
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: agencies they say the work with ice. The Jefferson County
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Sheriff's Office Jefferson County Sheriff Tom Hanson said in a statement,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: But the Sheriff's Office was impressed with the professionalism and
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: work ethic the agents and how well they interact with
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: the citizens and local law enforcement officers. Working with such
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: high caliber group of agents who were assigned to Jefferson
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: County made the decision to support the initiative worthwhile. He
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: concluded with we're also gratified that through this program, we
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: have had the opportunity to remove numerous dangerous criminals from
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: our community. Isn't that the role of law enforcement? Apparently
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: arrested some Chinese Communist Party membersle someone assumed their Chinese
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: Communist Party members. One of them identified in the article
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: of Lin Yang, citizen of China known as Yang Ning
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: case you're following his alias anyway, previously convicted of two
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: counts of endangering the welfare of children in Ravenna, Ohio.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: There's that word. Then previously convicted here illegally and committed
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: crimes against children. Who wants that person in the neighborhood,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: pivoting over away from West Virginia where apparently ice operations
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: are welcoming. AOK, get a load of this now, I
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: realize this is one of five candidates for the Long Beach,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: California Mayor's office. One guy, this is backcrap insanity. Rogelio Martinez.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: His name. He's a Democrat, of course, running for one
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: of running for the spot primary. Coming one if five
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: declared candidates for the number twenty sixth election in the
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: city of Long Beach, four hundred and fifty thousand people.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: My name is Roggellio Martinez, he said in a two
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: minute video that he actually posted out loud and said this,
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: I am calling all fifty five gangs in my beautiful city.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: I expect a gang leader from every gang, all fifty
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: five gangs. I'm not gonna name them. My name, he said.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: But I'm calling the Latino gangs. I'm calling the Cambodian gangs.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: I'm calling the Filipino gangs. I'm calling the Black gangs.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: I'm calling the Pacific Islander gangs. I am calling all
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: gang leaders to meet me right here Long Beach City
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Hall this coming Monday. That will be today, folks, in
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: case you want to sit by and take a look. Specifically,
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: I need you to be here and meet me in person.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: That get a load of this. I'm reading what he wrote,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: what he said to take back this city because our
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: leadership is not doing anything about it and our police
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: are powerless. He's speaking to gang people. If you feel
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: your city has been overrun, Yeah, you may want to
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: point the ice on some level, but isn't part of
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: a particularly lawless reality in your city Long Beach residence.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: The fact that you've got fifty five gangs in your
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: four to fifty thousand person city in the first place.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Fifty five? And I gotta ask, are these gangs racist?
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: Like if you are in the Cambodian gang and you
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: want to make a switch, do you think the Latino
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: gang would let you in? And he didn't specifically mention
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: like the any I didn't see. I don't necessarily know
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: what political affiliation the Latina, the Cambodian, Filipino, Pacific einder gangs.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: I don't know what their political affiliations, the black gangs.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: No reference to things like the Clan or Proud Boys.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: I guess he doesn't want them there. Maybe they don't exist.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Despite of what the Biden administration, the Obama administration told
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: you that it was nothing in the world to fear
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: but a bunch of right wing racist gangs out in
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: the world anyway, marte Or Martinez, speaking with at least
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: The Daily Caller, that his intentions of making the video
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: were to show that every member of the city is
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: part of the community, and we never were and we're
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: never to harm anybody, never to incite any type of violence.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: But this address is directed toward people gathering together to
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: protest immigrations and customs enforcement. He said, it was kind
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: of like a crazy, radical but fresh approach to gain
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: attention to what's happening in America, specifically in cities that
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: are predominantly Hispanic and Latino. I actually am surprised that
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: it went viral on a national level, not surprised that
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: it went viral on a local level, but on a
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: national level. I'm actually very surprised why when people say batcrap,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: crazy crap, it tends to go viral regardless of how
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: local the race happens to be. And he pointed out
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: he doesn't believe that any of these gang members are
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: going to show up, and I knew they were, And
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: the reasons why is because I didn't name any gangs
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: by name. I was very strategic in producing the video.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: So no, no gang members are going to respond. No
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: gang members is going to show up. That's not the
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: reality of the video. Well what is it? Somebody wrote
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: WTF after that. Maybe they won't show up because they're
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: here illegally, and given that they're in gangs, that necessarily
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: suggests engage in criminal activity. Maybe inviting ICE to show
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: up to Long Beach today and arrest the gang members. Yeah,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: if you're gonna it's like police, the offer they send
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: out to people without standing warrants. You know, your opportunity
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: to win season tickets to the Bengals, come up and
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: show at this particular location you've been selected. They all
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: show up and they all get arrested. Maybe that's what
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: he had in mind anyway. In so far as the
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: make up of Long Beach forty four percent Hispanic or Latino,
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: although they guess based upon what he says, they're being
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: separate gangs thirteen percent Asian, twelve percent Black. That is
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: based on twenty twenty four estimates from the Census Bureau.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: He said, enoughs enough ICE neeed to get out of
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: Long Beach, and this is the only way I know
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: to get them out peacefully, but with strong force. But
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: peacefully what calling gang members to show up. He also
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: said the police are not doing anything wrong. I'm not
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: here to defund the police. I stand with my Long
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: Beach police officers, my men and women that serve Long
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: Beach Police Department. But they are powerless. They are powerless
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: against ICE. That's right, because ICE is doing a job lawfully,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: which they have been instructed to do enforce the immigration laws.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Now if they run amuck and start randomly shooting people,
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: that is not enforcing the law. That is running a
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: muck and randomly shooting people, and they can be held
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: accountable for that. We're going to find out about the
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: most recent shootings in Minneapolis. Not an open and shutcase
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: on self defense on those but that some did that
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: doesn't mean that that is the business operation model of ICE,
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: so that that's what they intend to go out and do.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: All all these left wing protesters false flag operation would
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: suggest that that's exactly what they do. Their intent is
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: to go down and kill people randomly and indiscriminately. Right.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: I guess the people in West Virginia don't believe that.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: Five nineteen fifty five Krcity detalk station Jeff gets your
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: call right out of the gate if you don't mind
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: holding for a moment. Fifty undred eighty two to three talk
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: pound five fifty on eighteen T phones. Yeah, welcome to
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: the morning show. Thanks for holding over the breake there.
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: My friend, Happy Monday, Brian, right back at you?
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: Is it? Just look down at my watch and see
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: if it shows full moon? So I guess it's been
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: set properly.
• 14:16
  Speaker 5: There you go. Hey, thought about having not to Springfield
• 14:20
  Speaker 5: before Wednesday save a few dogs and stray dogs and
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: cats before they scattered to the wind.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: Dusted off that old one. Huh, I've forgotten all about that,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: right it.
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: Beats heading down the wall of hills.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you can expect ICE operations in Ohio courting
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: governor to wine and I suspect, given the Somali community
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: has got a pretty bad reputation for committing fraud and
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: abuse and has a very high level of dependence on
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: the welfare system, maybe they will show up in Springfield.
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: I don't know, no worse than Minnesota.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: You know, obviously you said you're going up to Minnesota
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: joking or to Springfield jokingly. If there's aybody in my
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: listening audience that lives in Springfield. I haven't been to
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: Swing Town in a long time. One of my best
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: friends grew up there and we used to make trips
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: up there every once in a while, and so it's
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: been so many years since I've been in Springfield. I
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: keep hearing that there is a huge Somali population there,
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: but I haven't heard.
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: Anybody to go up to Lime is still okay.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: Okay, well still okay. I suppose beauties in the d
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: of the beholder. That's why I said I haven't heard
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: from Springfield residen saying it's been a problem or it
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: is a problem. I can't render an opinion on that
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: again since I haven't been there, but makes you kind
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: of wonder how it is that any given population can
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: establish itself in like one city. And ultimately I come
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: to the conclusion that, well, people of like minds tend
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: to want to live together. They are self populating in
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: any given area because oh, look, fellows Somalians, that makes sense.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: I want to live in an area where people think
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: like me and what came from the same place as me.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: So did they end up living together in close concentration
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: in any given city because well of racist laws, or
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: did they end up moving together in any given location
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: because well, they're like minded. People who think like in
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: want to live amongst like minded people. Go ahead, use
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: that as a thought exercise if you may. Five on

• 16:52
  Speaker 6: compared to last week, this is great. Well it's called
• 16:55
  Speaker 6: I may not be. I may not be saying that
• 16:57
  Speaker 6: after a few hours out here in the cold, but
• 16:59
  Speaker 6: maybe not.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: But hey, listen, I'm telling you, as cold as it
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: was yesterday, at least the sun was barren down and
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: it actually felt warmer.
• 17:04
  Speaker 6: So yeah, the drive out here wasn't too bad. We
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: left a little earlier than normal, so we had sunshine
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: all the way out. So yeah, what you know, when
• 17:13
  Speaker 6: it's shined in through the window, it feels a little better.
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: So hey, anyway, enough about that crazy weather stuff. Yeah,
• 17:20
  Speaker 6: you're you're. I I went back and listen. Actually, I
• 17:24
  Speaker 6: have to correct that I was off Friday, so I
• 17:28
  Speaker 6: got up late and then I went out, got to breakfast,
• 17:31
  Speaker 6: and I got to hear the tail end of the show,
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: and uh, got got to hear most of Marine's call
• 17:37
  Speaker 6: and uh and then Ken was your last caller, and
• 17:40
  Speaker 6: then your rent at the end was was on point, bro.
• 17:44
  Speaker 6: I mean the way you pretty much uh lit up
• 17:48
  Speaker 6: these these liberals and this dude you read about this
• 17:51
  Speaker 6: morning from Long Beach just another in the long line
• 17:53
  Speaker 6: of many ridiculously stupid liberals who come up with these
• 17:58
  Speaker 6: this crazy crap. And of course there I mean, you know,
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: if we say anything of us on the right, especially
• 18:05
  Speaker 6: us straight white men, say anything that could be possibly
• 18:08
  Speaker 6: twisted as racist, oh you're a racist. But the Democrats
• 18:12
  Speaker 6: come right out and say it. There, they come right
• 18:15
  Speaker 6: out and divide people racially. Oh that's no problem, you know,
• 18:19
  Speaker 6: it's still the double standard is just palpable. It's ridiculous.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's kind of my point, sort of like, and
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: I'm going back and forth with my friend Eric here.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: You know, he says, well, you know, if you get
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: all these people to come into the country, the idea
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: is of course to water down red states. And I
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: understand that to a degree. But my counterpoint was, you
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: can't force any illegal immigrant that comes here to live
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: and or stay in any given location. It's their choice.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: So how do you end up with a community that
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: is just packfull of the same individuals from the same
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: foreign country here illegally. It's their choice to live together.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: I understand that it's sort of it's facilitated, it's encouraged.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: But yes, like minded people want to live like minded places.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: That isn't racism. It's just the reality of human nature.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: And that's why I pivot it over when he starts
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: identifying all these individual gangs, the ocean gangs, the smiling gangs,
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: and the I don't know, tyke whatever, a whole litany,
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: all divided and broken up by choice, I imagine into
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: racial groups. So there are racially based gangs. Now, Government
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: and evil white supremacists didn't do that. It's just again,
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: human nature to want to congregate live among people who
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: are of like mind. So, you know, it just seems
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: obvious to me.
• 19:33
  Speaker 6: But whatever, Yeah, I want to live around people who
• 19:37
  Speaker 6: give a crap about their neighborhood, who give a crap
• 19:41
  Speaker 6: about maybe what their yard looks like. Not too crazy,
• 19:44
  Speaker 6: but you know, I don't want to live next to it,
• 19:46
  Speaker 6: you know, to it's a pile of garbage. You know.
• 19:50
  Speaker 6: I want to live around people who who want to
• 19:52
  Speaker 6: make sure the neighborhood is safe for fur their kids.
• 19:55
  Speaker 7: And you know.
• 19:56
  Speaker 6: That's I don't care what you look like. I just
• 19:59
  Speaker 6: want people who give a crap about the things that
• 20:02
  Speaker 6: to me make common sense. We should give a crap about. Yeah,
• 20:05
  Speaker 6: and Morris, a bunch of people in West Virginia sounds
• 20:08
  Speaker 6: like they all agree because yeah, like no riots you know,
• 20:13
  Speaker 6: oh wow, No, none of no Shenanigans going on like
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: it did in Minneapolis. Why because because in a large
• 20:20
  Speaker 6: part in the leadership in West Virginia is a lot
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: better and has a lot more common sense than those
• 20:26
  Speaker 6: idiots up there in Minnesota. So the moral of the
• 20:29
  Speaker 6: story is, don't vote Democrat. Have a great day. Right.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: Oh he's end up on that point and the extent
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: I said, uh Samonian's apology. Thank you Timothy for pointing
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: out that in Springfield apparently it's Haitians not Somolians. I
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: think my ultimate bottom line point still applies. But yes,
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: you were right, and thank you for correcting the Reddit
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: record and at least diminishing me sounding like an idiot
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: to a small degree. Police investigating a fatal shooting having
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: a Walnut Hills Sunday night Joe Strucker likes to point
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: out how they voted in Walnut Hills seventy one to

• 21:21
  Speaker 1: unit is investigating, get ready for it. The road closures,
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: I guess have begun part of Guest Street Queen's Gate.
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: It's going to be close for about four years. Beginning
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: February thirteenth, Cruse starting the reconstruction efforts along ICE seventy
• 21:39

• 21:45
  Speaker 1: Brent's Beds Bridge Quarter Project team announced the closure between
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: Freeman Avenue and the West seventh and West eighth Street overpasses.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: Let go start with a major waterline replacement closure also
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: in place for the upcoming Lynn Street Bridge replacement construction project.

  Speaker 1: That one extends over Guest and I seventy five and

  Speaker 1: be completed early in the construction timeline, but Guest Street
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: will remain closed to accommodate the Len Street bridge replacement exposure,
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: a closure rather expected to remain in place throughout June
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: twenty thirty. Cord to the project team co coordinate into
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: these projects. Sinsure is improving safety, reliability, and efficiency for
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: the transportation network once construction begins, Brace for it. Cost
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: of this entire project being shared between Ohio and Kentucky
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: three point six billion dollars, one point six billion coming
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: from federal sources. Pre construction work has been underway for months.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: That's going to be a long, long project. But once
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: it's done, you'll probably say something the effective when that
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: went by rather quickly, just like the entire month of January. Uh,
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: sack stack has stupid coming up. I'd rather hear from
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: you if you gotta come the talk station. It's five
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: forty here fifty five k see talk station trying to
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: make it a happy Monday eight eight two three talk
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: con fact fifty on eight and T phone stack is stupid, Okay,
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: Lisa involves a Walmart, Florida, Oh oh Florida woman and
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: a Walmart. This woman now facing theft and drug paraphernalia
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: charges after driving a motorized shopping cart through the Walmart
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: while eating and drinking items taken from within the store.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: What Josleen Lopez, she's twenty five, allegedly shot up methn
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: fhetamine as this tradition then as this tradition exhibited odd
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: behavior at the Walmart? What she had a half empty
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: bottle of wine in her cart and she ate sushi,
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: mini muffins, cinnamon rolls, and rotisserie chicken. That doesn't sound
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: like something like a meal planning exercise. Hey, honey, what
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: do you want to have later in the week. Oh,
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe we'll have sushi and muffins and
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: cinnamon rolls and rotissey chicken for dinner. You know that's
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: a stute observation joke. I mean, methnfetamine giving you like
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: a speed kind of drug. You didn't realize that it
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: really made you hungry. It seems like it did have
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: the opposite effect. Oh well, sheriff showed up to the
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: call to the Walmart. Uh, she consumed it says thirty
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: two dollars and thirty six cents worth of food and wine.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: While in the store, deputies also found three empty cereene
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: yet five buck chuck or three buck chuck or whatever
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: that is, Joe. They also found three empty syringes on her.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: After she was arrested, she told detectives that she used
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: the syringes earlier to of course, in jack crystal meth.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: She claimed to be homeless, told a deputy that, in
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: her words, she was hungry and did not want to
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: take any of the items outside of the store, but
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: did in fact consume everything she could while she was
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: in there. Further statium that she knew what she was
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: doing was wrong, but well, of course did it anyway.
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: Drugs are made.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: It's waiting for that. Joe pay Corse Stadium local boy
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: man arrested after breaking into pay Corpse Stadium attempting to
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: steal merchandise and food. Antonio Churchill, forty two years old,
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: arrested yesterday. Documentsary was caught on security camera breaking into
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: pay Corpse Stadium, forcefully opening a door to the stadium,
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: walking through the stadium, of course, until he was stopped
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: by a police officers. Charged with breaking an entering.
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: What was that?
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: Joe Oh he left his season tickets. Okay, props to
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: zero Hedge where I found this one doesn't involve naked people,
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: drugs or walmarts, but it is. It is San Francisco.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: The artic begins. SI, it's not parody, it's San Francisco.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: The city is ending what was described as a controversial
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: program that used literally millions of dollars in tax payer
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: money to give alcohol to homeless residents. Bear Daniel Lourie
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: said the city will end the managed Alcohol program, costing
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: five million dollars every year, which began during COVID nineteen, saying,
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: for years, San Francisco was spending five million dollars a
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: year to provide alcohol to people who were struggling with
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: homelessness and addiction. It doesn't make sense, and we're ending it.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: Idiots doing idiot things because they're idiot. Did it ever
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: makes sense? Program launched April twenty twenty, city placed unhoused
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: residents and hotels during lockdowns. Medical staff supplied controlled amounts
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: of beer and liquor to prevent the dangerous withdraw symptoms
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: while stores and bars were closed. Stores and bars were
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: closed because of you know, COVID. Not all stores were
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: closed some are open. Go ahead and try to figure
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: that one out with hindsight. The intended is a temporary measure, though,
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: of course, like all government programs that went on for
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: the next six years. Here you go. Here's the fun fact.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: Landing it squarely within the stack is stupid. The program
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: served only fifty five people, and at the five million
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: dollars every year, that's an average cost of four hundred
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: and fifty four thousand dollars per client. I know, Joe said, damn,
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: it's over. No more free alcohol for you. Feel free
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: to give me a called more stupid five if if
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: do you have Krosity talk station not factoring in the
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: nine minute delay we got. We stink about the cursed
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: delay and my dump button and people come in for
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: guests of the program, and I walk out to go
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: pick them up in the green room, and you can
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: still hear me talking on the radio. They look them,
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: they say, aren't you on the radio right now? It's
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: like the real long delay. Anyway, back over to the stack,
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: Oh stupid. Yeah, I'm real quick here and I don't
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: need to dwell on this one. But having grown up
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: on the West Side, being like the only non Catholic
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: and mostly all Catholic neighborhood. Hey to my friends growing up,
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: love all of you. You could not get away from
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: Notre Dame. Not necessarily wanted to, but man, everybody praised
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: Notre Dame. They had Notre Dame doorbells, Notre Dame theme
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: song horns on their car. I remember growing up one
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: of my friends mom and dad had a Notre Dame phone,
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: Notre Dame, Notre Dame, no dame, not dame, no name,
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: which of course goes hand in hand because they're Catholic,
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: well at least they used to be. Are supposed to
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: be My friends that love Notre Dame, are you going
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: to still provide them with money? And there have been
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: a number of cases like this over the years about
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: Notre Dame. University of Notre Dame just announced it appointed
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: a professor who has quite publicly supported abortion. This woman
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: now head of the lou Institute for Asia and Asian Studies.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: Her name Susan Austerman. She's been with Notre Dame since
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: twenty seventeen as a Global Affairs professor or whatever the
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: hell that is. Now she's going to be the director
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: of the Asian Studies Center. July twenty two, she and
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: another woman co authored an article another woman who is
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: also a former professor of Notre Dame. The article titled
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: lies about abortion have dictated our health policy, in which
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: she claims almost ninety percent of abortions occurred during the
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: first ten weeks of presidency pregnancy when there are no
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: babies or fetuses. No, it's not a baby in there,
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: it's only blastocysts or embryos so tiny they are too
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: small to see on an abdominal ultrasound. In this article,
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: these women also called a lie that abortion is dangerous,
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: writing this could not be further from the truth. Research
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: shows abortion is safe and does not have long term
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: effects on physical or mental health. They also claim abortion
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: doesn't cause cancer, it does affect future it does not
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: affect future fertility, and most people feel relief after an
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: abortion and do not regret their decision up to eleven
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: weeks medication. Abortions are generally performed using mifipress stone and
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: mesa prost all, which are safer than taking tile and all.
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: They also wrote criminalizing abortion results in irreparable harm. In fact,
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: it actually has the opposite policy effect that anti abortion
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: ADFIC could say. They want it can increase abortion rates,
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: unintended pregnancies, and infant mortality. She goes on and on
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: and on and on. But the whole point is this
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: is a Catholic institution. Hey, listen, it's not my doctrine
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: or dogma. I am not Catholic. Started out mentioning this
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: article by pointing that out. But it is now and
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: always has been for forever. Notre Dame has a firm
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: statement on uh, the on on the on the on life,
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: a deeply committed that. They called her a deeply committed
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: educator's led study broad programs, blah blah blah. They talk
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: about her background, which I'm sure is fine given that
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: she's head of this Asian institute, But what about her
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: stance on abortion. Those who serve in leadership positions that
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: Notre Dame do so with the clear understanding that their
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: decision making as leaders must be guided and consistent with
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: the university's Catholic mission. Notre Dame's commitment to upholding the
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: inherent dignity of the human person and the sanctity of
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: life at every stage is unwavering. Yeah, well, unless you
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: look at the position regarding the professor who worked there
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: who broadly embraced abortion and even advocated for it. CV
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: headed out of this low Center for Asian Studies. There
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: you go wrestle with your conscience on that one. I
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: supposed back to Cincinnati two stories in the status tube
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: and so we had the guy that broke into pay
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: Course stadium. Now we have two universities Cincinnati students arrested
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: charge with breaking into fifth third arena, apparently stealing alcohol.
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: This cord in Hamilton County Municipal Court affid David Owen
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: Singer and Brahm Schindler, nineteen years old, both accused of
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: entering the Linder Athletic Center Saturday, the twenty fourth. Security
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: cameras captured them, of course, cutting through into the fifth
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: third area arena. While inside, both suspects found coolers slash
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: a bar on the third level which had different types
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: of alcohol. The two reportedly stole that alcohol loaded into
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: their backpacks and pockets before leaving the building. Officers got
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: to the security camera footage and tray Schindler back to
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: his dorm. Idots good point. F David says. Police use
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: resources through the University of Sin Santa locate Schindler's dorm.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he lives over there. Officers sitting there dumbass
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: permitted to enter and discover the backpack of Jack and
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: Schindler war During the incident. Schindler, of course, gave police
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: Singer's name and officers were able to locate his dorm.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: Court document says Singer and Schindler are facing charges of
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: breaking and entering. Questions remain about whether they remain friends,
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: assuming that they well were friends before the other one
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: ratted the other guy out. Fifty fifty five KRC DE

  Speaker 1: see here. He started off this morning well after the
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: story for the Malaysian minister, but talking about how six
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: hundred and fifty illegal aliens arrested in West Virginia over
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: a two week crackdown. They I guess flooded West Virginia.
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: Immigrations and Customs officers did, and state law enforcement officers
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: actually worked with them. It was a coordinated ever between federal,
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: state and local law enforcement. Praise was given to all
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: the local law enforcement officers who helped ICE agents remove
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: the dangerous criminal element from the state of West Virginia.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: Seems to be everybody's pretty darn happy about it. There
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: were no protests in the street, there was no violent outbreaks,
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: there were no people throwing frozen water bottles at police officers.
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: Local law enforcement helped as opposed to hindred ICE from
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: doing its job. They arrested, among others, a convicted child
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: sex abuser, a couple of citizens from China, presumably the
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: Chinese Communist Party, one previously convicted of a couple accounts
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: endangering the welfare of children. Anybody out there want child
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: sex offenders in their neighborhood, I'd like to think uniformly
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: we'd all say no. So how is it you can
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: get away with this West Virginia. But in other areas
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: of the country, people come completely unhinged and unglued, most
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: notably sanctuary states and cities. James Galliano he is a
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: retired FBI Supervisory Special Agent, member of the Law Enforcement
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: Legal Defense Fund Board of Directors. UH calling it as
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: you see it, he sees it rather op ed peace
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: New York posts where I found this one. It's important
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: thing to remember, Well, yeah, he rights. Americans remained bitterly
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: divided over the chaos and gulf of Minneapolis as Tump
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: Trump seeks to deport illegal immigrant criminals. Some see the
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: protests as thwarting enforcement of immigration law, as protecting friends
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: and neighbors in a form of righteous vigilanteism. Others contend
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: Trump's effers are legal and necessary in spite of the
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: fact that, yeah, tragic deaths of two civilians who were
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: unlawfully interfering with federal enforcement actions and now subject to
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: Department of Justice investigations, and whether their tactics and behavior
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: got a little over zealous. The jury's out on that one,
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: at least in so far as the second guy that
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: got killed, Alex pretty I think they overreacted, And it's
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: a little embarrassing for Trump administration officials who immediately came
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: out saying the guy's packing heat and waving his gun
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: around or whatever, and a terrorist right out of the
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: get go, when everybody's video and all of the observers
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: there tell a completely different tale. So and that of
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: course feeds the anger that these left wingers have generally
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: speaking toward any immigration enforcement efforts. You don't want to
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: give them fuel for the fire. But all these interactions,
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: of course, are going to increase the likelihood that it happens.
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: That's why I keep saying, they love when this kind
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: of thing happens, these left wing anti ice folks. Ah See,
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: now you got hundreds of gets six hundred and fifty
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: or two week period in West Virginia without an incident.
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: Do you hear any reader think about these people being
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: gunned down or killed? No, you didn't. I guess that's
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: because the tension levels weren't nearly as high during the
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: West Virginia operations than they are in left wing cities. Anyway,
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: my interjection, sorry James here right, but what about anti
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: ice provocateurs, agitators and instigators help bend on disrupting and
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: impeding immigration enforcement. Just how do they quote unquote spontaneously
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: materialize on moss to screen profanities, blast whistles, and block
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: official vehicles. The group, led by a cardre of dispatchers,
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: uses the secure messaging app Signal and the Business Focus
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: scheduling program. It's something called air table for the purposes
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: of tracking ICE activities, scheduling volunteer patrollers and to spy
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: on license plates of suspected DHS vehicles in one sector
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: of Minneapolis. It's a well organized machine, he's pointing out.
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: Dispatchers and patrollers working in round of the clock shifts
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: can quickly rouse members to this site of any ICE
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: action with emoji coded text messages and quote community of service.
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: That's an organization, Community of service. Initial CAP appears to
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: be just one of the many separate anti ICE cells
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: taking part in these disturbances, all of them covering their
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: electronic tracks and using aliases to shield their identities. As
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: a career FBI official who specialized in detecting and countering
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: nefarious networks both at home and abroad, it's all eerily familiar.
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: When I deployed to Afghanistan and support of Operation and
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: during Freedom, I saw similar spot or tactics employed by
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: any number of guerrilla groups who communicated via handheld radios
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: to initiate IEDs on roadways traveled by American troops. The
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: organized crime outfits and narco traffickers I pursued during my
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: twenty five year FBI careers sought to protect themselves with
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: tactics much like those of community of service that organization
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: I mentioned a moment ago operating in separate cells, so
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: they're compromising. One one wouldn't expose the rest taking a
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: play out of the taking a playbook or a page
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: of the playbook of the terrorist organizations that have been
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: while festering in this world for decades and decades. You're
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: right to the nineteen nineties and two thousands, enterprising criminal
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: networks swiftly adopted new communications channels on video game console networks,
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: recognizing law enforcement remained focused on monitoring landlines, pages, and
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: cell phones. Put it all together, the anti ICE movement
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: looks less like a populist grassroots uprising of outraided soccer
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: moms and more like a criminal insurgency. History is litteral
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: with empires undone by insurgent campaigns from the fall of
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: Rome to the collapse of Czarist Russia. Former CIA Senior
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: operations officer Rick Delatorre, speaking with Fox News Digital last
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: week at the Minneapolis protest strongly at the Minneapolis progress
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: strong protests strongly resemble the insurgencies outlined in official US
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: Army and CIA manuals. Quote decentralized movements close quote embedded
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: among civilians that wield propaganda to exploit triggering events, prioritize
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: rapid communications, and focus on persistent surveillance of their foes.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: There's your decentralized movement. They're actually, yes, decentralizing the form
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: of they are individually existing cells, separate from each other,
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: but taking their command from some higher element, the coordinating
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: entity like community of Service, among others. Get a triggering event, yes,
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: an ICE interaction that kind of may be gone bad.
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: Get them all out there in the street immediately. It's
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: not grass roots, it's well organized, he says, no wonder.
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: FBI Director Cash Betel announced last week that his agency
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: would be examining anti ace ICE encrypted group checks on
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: signal to determine if users broke the law or incited violence. Opponents,
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: of course, he argues, says this say, this is overreach
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: and the right that investigating against a government you disagree
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: with in a private chat is not against the law,
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: and it's enshrined in the First Amendment as protected free speech. Yet,
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: he observes in Minneapolis, civilians serving within the anti ICE
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: mobilization effort as rapid responders have moved into dangerous territory
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: as they obstruct and impede enforcement of immigration laws. See
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: this is where I go off the rails and say,
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: this is kind of like a reco thing. What they
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: are doing in interfering with and interrupting ICE is literally
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: breaking the law, interfering with law enforcement, and ICE is
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: law enforcement when it comes to enforcing federal immigration law.
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: So you are coordinating criminal activity among multiple people. Is
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: that not organized crime? You only need two or more
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: people conspiring to commit criminal acts even get them in
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: a rico conspiracy. So that's why cash Betel's looking into it.
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: There's that fine line between criminal activity and exercising your
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: right to free speech. The chaos that follows, he writes,
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: is much like DLM protests and riots in twenty twenty,
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: with genuine constitutionally protected demonstrations turning violent as anarchists and
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: antifas black block agitators employing aliases and clad in black
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: clothing and masks to conceal identities capitalize on public anger
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: over the death of George Floyd. Those activists, along with
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: many of today's anti ICE organizations, work directly with the
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: Democratic Socialists of America and espoused Marxist Leninist ideologies. It's
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: a pretty important point that one, isn't it Maybe there
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: aren't any socialists in West Virginia. Hmm, some prominent Democrats
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: actively lending a hand looking to spread uprising beyond Minnesota.
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: The leaked Community Service signal chats reveal that its dispatchers
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: include governor, a governor, Tim Wall's employee to a city board,
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: the wife of a Democratic state representative, and well known
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: Democratic attorneys and educators. Over New Jersey Governor Mickey Cheryl
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: last week announced the launch of a new online portal
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: for uploading of videos of ICE operations in New Jersey.
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: The governor did that. Governor Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson said
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: she'll prohibitize from accessing city control properties and will deploy
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: local cops to verify federal agents IDs. Now, think about
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: Seattle and the excrement hoole it's turned into under the
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: years of democratic administration. Is not a real pleasant place
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: to be a lot of crime, a lot of homelessness,
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: a lot of property crime. Most notably, she's deploying local
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: police to verify federal agents IDs. And I scratch my
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: head and wonder why if I lived in Seattle, would
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: it be a priority for me to have local lawfareiresforcement
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: taken away from enforcing local laws and directing them to
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: spend their time asking federal agents for their IDs. Now,
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: if you're like me, you're going to default, thinking, of
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: course the Fed agent has an ID on them. You
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: may argue about whether it's been properly displayed, but I
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: seriously doubt that there is a real problem persistent among
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: ICE officers in failing to bring their identification with them
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: to work. Anyway, go ahead, spend your time on that.
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: Local law enforcement officers, he says, expect more of these
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: state sanctioned insurgency tactics to be unleashed when the enforcement
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: of America's immigration laws come to a sanctuary city near you. Again,
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: note the venue of all of this anti ICE activity.
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: Is there any Has there been any of this organized
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: chaos in cities that aren't sanctuary cities, in cities where
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: local and state law enforcement officers are working with ICE.
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: It seems to be a pretty clear division line there

  Speaker 1: twenty of Course Money Monday with Brian James A to
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: five at Donald Trump. I think it's going to be
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: yousoftening his position on this ice thing, and I think
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: this is a pretty good position change to the extent
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: you were worried about the National Guard being deployed in
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: a city near you, Trump said. On Saturday, he said
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: federal authorities will not enter thew in protests in sanctuary
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: city jurisdictions, specifically pointed at Democrat led jurisdictions, which of
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: course are the sanctuary city jurisdictions, but they will continue
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: to protect federal properties. And I've instructed Secretary Homeland Security
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: Christy Nome that under no circumstances are we going to
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: participate in various poorly run democratic cities with regard to
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: their protest and or riots unless and until they ask
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: us for help. So we will, however, guard, in very
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: powerfully so any and all federal buildings that are being
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: attacked by these highly paid lunatics. He sent a social
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: media posts on Saturday. He issued the instructions for Ice
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: and Border Patrol personnel to be very forceful in protecting
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: federal properties, saying there will be no spitting in the
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: faces of our officers, there will be no punching or
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: kicking of the headlights of our cars. That's federal property, parenthetically,
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: and there will be no rock or brick throwing at
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: our vehicles or at our patriot war. If there is,
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: those people will suffer equal and more consequence. Hu said
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: also erased the prospect of deploy military personnel to assist
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: him protecting federal property. So as long as you're not
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: beaten up on federal property, they're gonna leave you alone.
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: That seems like a fair exchange. And actually that seems
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: to be a message to all of the law abiding folks,
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: maybe folks that don't necessarily abide by the sanctuary city designation.
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: But if your citizens are going to go run them
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: up and start destroying, you know, anything other than federal property,
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: mind you, you're not gonna get the help. You've already
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: projected a message that you do not want the federal government.
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: They're fine, okay, won't deploy the National Guard. Now, one
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: may argue he's got an obligation to the citizenry generally speaking,
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: to provide as much protection as assistance that they could
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: possibly get in the face of riots. But apparently if
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: the right stay the hell away from federal property again,
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: have a field day. I don't know that I wouldn't
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: necessarily like that, you know, in my neighborhood. Necessarily, I
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: mean the outright the idea that you're never going to
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: see assistance from the federal government to think to the
• 49:17

  Speaker 1: the arena, they found coolers in a bar on the

  Speaker 1: third level, which apparently had different types of alcohol in them.
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: They loaded up their backpacks and pockets with that alcohol
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: and then left the building accessing security cameras. Police trace

• 52:29
  Speaker 1: didn't know whose singer was his accomplice in this, but
• 52:32

  Speaker 1: Welcome to the Morning Show. Happy Monday to you, sir.
• 54:57
  Speaker 8: Good morning, my brother, Face, Flags, Family, Hecker, Kosh. When
• 55:01
  Speaker 8: you got those, you always have freedom H and K
• 55:05
  Speaker 8: H and K ninety one.
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: There you go, one of many options available for people
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: out there. Hey, I saw an article I was thinking
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: about you this morning. Democrats who obviously hate the Second
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: Amendment have rediscovered these Second Amendment with all these left
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: wing groups and got a whole bunch of new gun
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: organizations for left wingers, which is kind of weird. The
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: liberal gun you're not a member of the Liberal gun Club,
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: are you.
• 55:28
  Speaker 8: No, sir? Go ahead, Bobby, We're more of a private organization.
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I get that.
• 55:38
  Speaker 8: You asked MeV before and saying, well, what's this we?
• 55:41
  Speaker 8: I mean, one thing I could think of is we're
• 55:44
  Speaker 8: just like blades of grass.
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: Bobby's not proselytizing for whatever organization and the wei he
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: associates with. Anyhow, go ahead, Bobby, was not what else
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: on your mind today other than a plug for h
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: K firearms?
• 56:02
  Speaker 8: Well, how about Springfield? Make pets great again? That's all
• 56:06
  Speaker 8: I could say about Springfield. You know they'll be coming
• 56:09
  Speaker 8: in this coming weekend, so you know there, they'll be
• 56:12
  Speaker 8: there for a thirty days stay. I know the governor
• 56:15
  Speaker 8: doesn't care much for it, but they're on their way.
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: That's two references to the pet population in Springfield. So
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: dusting off that old chestnut there, How.
• 56:24
  Speaker 8: Bobby, it's going to be a fun week come next week.
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, let me ask you this. Given the
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: West Virginia had a two week operation in which they
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: nab six hundred and fifty criminal illegal immigrants without a
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: peep from the residents in the state of West Virginia.
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: No protests, no riots, no, no throwing water bottles or
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: anything at the ICE agents. Do you expect that kind
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: of activity along the lines we've seen in Minneapolis to
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: extend if they go into Springfield, Ohio, to extend to Springfield?
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: What is your take on that one, Bobby, We don't.
• 56:55
  Speaker 8: Have any protests in Charleston, West Virginia, Huntington, West Virginia,
• 56:59
  Speaker 8: Eastern Conte. Okay, just bring yourself on down and try
• 57:02
  Speaker 8: to protest. You can get in, but you may not
• 57:05
  Speaker 8: have a problem getting out. We don't put up the
• 57:07
  Speaker 8: past out.
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: Okay, the we and I don't think that's Bobby and
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: the mouse in his pocket. All right, Bobby, we'll see
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: what happens. My popcorns out. You will find me nowhere
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: near Springfield. But then again, as I put it out
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: early in the program, it's been so long since I've
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: been to Springfield, I have no idea what it's like
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: on the lay of the land there. So I asked,
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: if you got listeners that live in Springfield, do you
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: expect ICE to show up in your neighborhood. Apparently the
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: Haitian population of illegal immigrants is fairly substantial. And no,
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: it's not racist to say that, it's just been widely
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: reported that many many illegal immigrant Haitians live there. I
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: guess that's true here from a local resident fight out,
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: that is indeed true. Well, today, yesterday was the day,
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: and I think this is a great thing for all people,
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: including those that receiving SNAP benefits New York. The new
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: work requirement now kicked in happened yesterday beginning February first.
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: This is the one big Beautiful Bill Act which Trump
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: signed into law, institutes new work requirements for SNAP benefits
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: to continue receiving the benefits, and of most notably, able
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: bodied adults without dependence are not going to be eligible
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: to receive SNAP benefits unless they engage in some work effort.
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: Now the category that's at issue here, people ages eighteen
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: to fifty four must meet conditions to receive SNAP benefits
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: for more than three months in any given three year period.
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: Able bided adults without dependence there's a little acronym for that.
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: Able bodied adults without dependence ADAWD must meet any of
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: the following conditions, Okay. Option one, work at least eighty
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: hours per month twenty hours a week. Participate in a
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: work program for this duration eighty hours a month. Option
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: three take part in a combination of work and work
• 58:59
  Speaker 1: programs for eighty hours a month at minimum minimum will
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: remain in a workforce for the required number of hours
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: assigned each month. Apparently millions of these abyades use SNAP benefits.
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: They compromise the true goal of the program, which is
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: to provide financial support for vulnerable people who need help.
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: So the disabled individual, the woman who's incapable of working,
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: anybody who falls outside of this category are the supposed recipients.
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: As SNAP, it was a temporary program that's designed to
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: get you through a hurdle and help you move on
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: with your life. It was never intended to be permanent,
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: and yet many ofvable bodied adults have made this a
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: permanent fixture in their life. Exempt people from the work requirements,
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: don't worry about you. It's folks who are unable to
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: work due to mental or physical limitations. Veterans are included
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: in that as well homeless people and pregnant women. You
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: will continue to maintain your SNAP benefits even if you
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: don't try to work. If you meet the criteria but
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: fail to fulfill any of those options for the work
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: require ronment, you'll lose SNAP benefits after three months. Now,
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: depending on which state you're in, will drive whether or
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: not it's been implemented. So in some states, apparently people
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: started losing Bennetts's benefits as soon as yesterday if they
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: can't show their working, but most people have some period
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: of time before the benefits well are at risk. Texas
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: they already started the requirement back in October, so people
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: could have been have exhausted that three month period by
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: January first and have already been removed from snap Other
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: states that started the three month clock back in November,
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: you got Alaska, Colorado, Georgia, Hawaii. Right here. In Ohio
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: as well as Illinois, requirement took place yesterday. People could
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: lose benefits in May. There's your three month windows. So
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: if you're hearing me, you're in the category. You're in Ohio.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: TikTok TikTok TikTok, Ohio says people have to show proof
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: of work starting in March. Anyway, I gotta I thought
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: this was rather interesting. There's an advocacy group out there,
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: No Kidding, National Skills Coalition. They argue that this undermines workers.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: How I'm puzzling over this one, they said, moreover enforcing
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: work requirements. Play. Oh this, you're gonna absolutely mind blow
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: on this one, remember governor to whine, Wow, you know
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: it's a federal program, it's a state program. There's gonna
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: be fraud wasted abuse. Yeah, well you know you're always
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: gonna be able to find as if that's an excuse
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: to ignore it. That's the way it came across. And
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: when you ignore the fraud wasted abuse, looking at the
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: situation like Minnesota, word, but I think billions. They're talking
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: about nine billion dollars of your hard earned labor has
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: been taken from you and throwing in the toilet in essence. Anyway,
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: here's this group. Enforcing work requirements places a heavy administrative
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: burden on states and workers. Human service agencies US notify
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: recipients of the new requirements, verify work hours, track compliance,
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: and process exemptions. In each case these activities, there is
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: room for error. Oh wow, that can have devastating consequences
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: for workers. Wow. So in other words, just ignore it.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 1: Don't have a work requirement for able bodied adults. Because
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: while enforcing the work requirements you get, you have placed
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: an additional burden on government to ferret out fraudways and
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 1: abuse and prevent people who shouldn't be on the program
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: from getting it, and that during that and all that
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: work that goes into that, you may screw up once,
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: so forget about it. I guess they were listening to
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: Governor to Wine on that one. Yeah, it's always going
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 1: to be there, You're never yeah, okay, fine, six forty eight,
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: that kind of thing. Just really, I guess your CD
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: talk station looking forward to Christopher Smith minute seven twenty.
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: Always enjoy his commentary and he has been really on
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: fire with a Smith event. So that'll take place at
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 1: seven twenty, as is the tradition here on the fifty
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: five KRC Morning Show. Reminder listener, lunch gonna be Ron's
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 1: Roost on Wednesday. Love Ron's Roost. My mom will be
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: stopping by. She'll be there a little bit later. It's
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 1: got a haircut appointment or hair styling appointment, so she
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: can't be there early and probably won't stay for lunch,
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: but she is going to come in and say hi,
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: thank you, mom for making that effort. I appreciate looking
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: forward to seeing you leave. Just live better late than never,
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: So enjoy the fellowship at fifty five KRSE. Listener, lunch,
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: Uh give me the aposity of time. Just real quick here,
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: this is the first among ice I imagine a lot
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: of upcoming lawsuits. Medical malpractice lawsuit. A jury awarded a
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: woman two million dollars after determining two medical professionals to
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: be reliable for malpractice in connection with the sex change
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: procedure they performed on her when she was a minor
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: fox Fari in twenty two suits a psychologist and the
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 1: plastic surgeon. This in Westchester, kind of New York. Back
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen, she was a transgender identifying sixteen year
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 1: old no longer considered herself to be transgender, first known
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 1: quote unquote de transitioner to win a moutpractice case involving
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 1: transgender surgery one point six million for the suffering and
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 1: four hundred thousand dollars to cover future future medical expenses
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 1: her attorney that asked for eight million. Psychologists Kenneth Einhorn
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 1: and surgeon Simon Chin held liable. Jerry concluded that Einhorn
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 1: and Chin's conduct leading up to her double mass sectomy
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 1: marked a departure from the standard of care. So yeah,
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 1: I would think so. And what troubles me most about this,
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, can anyone not turn back the tables of time.
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: And remember, I mean quite literally, how stupid you were
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: when you were sixteen years old, How little you knew
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: about the big picture of life, how all those life
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: experiences that go into aching up adulthood hadn't yet happened yet.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 1: I know you thought you knew everything. That's kind of
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 1: the running joke, isn't it about sixteen year olds? You know, like, God,
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: don't tell me what to do. I'm sixteen years old.
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 1: I've seen it all, but so much more development, all
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: those building blocks of life experience you have yet to experience.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: And someone's gonna bat you on the back and say, yeah,
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: you're not a guy, you're a girl. Or you're not
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: a girl, you're a guy. Here, let's lop those breasts off.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 7: HM.

  Speaker 1: four nine fifty eight hundred eight two three taco with

• 1:06:35
  Speaker 1: know it, I'm saying it out loud for Management of
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: my Heart. That was forty five seconds worth of national
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 1: news at the top of the hour, brought to you
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 1: by NBC. Forty five seconds talk about the Grammys. We
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 1: got war breaking out all over the world, kreos in
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: the streets, people getting killed and blah. We could go
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: on for hours and hours and hours at all is
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 1: the real news that's going on in the world. You
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 1: can even pick some fun stuff out in the world
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 1: that's going on probably a little bit more important than
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 1: the gram means groundhog Day. Yeah, how about forty five
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: seconds are worth of Groundhog Day, Joe Pakistani. Phil has
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: only gotten to Wright thirty six percent of the time
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: over the course that they've been doing this. Anyway, let's
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: see it. Sue it better than Channel twelve. See what
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: Karen's got this morning, Cary, thanks so much for calling.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: Happy Monday to you.
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 9: Well, thank you, Brian. I do want to say that
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 9: I am pro Ice. I have friends that say that
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 9: Ice has blankets blanket the community. No, and I didn't
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 9: know if that was true.
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 1: Now they're allowed if there was. It's like the president
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: that Supreme Court decision. At least as I understand the law,
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 1: I could be wrong with somebody out there that smarter
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: than me on this topic. Please feel free to call
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: and chime in. But if you are going about your
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 1: law enforcement duties, you are protected from civil liability because
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: of your engaging in law enforcement. If you're shooting people
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: while you know, purporting to do your job and you
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: have no justification for it, that's not engaging in conduct
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: relation to your duty. That's called murder or maybe even
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 1: manslaughter in some cases. But yeah, it doesn't give you
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 1: a free pass to engage in criminal activity. It's like
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 1: a police officer doing the rounds. Yeah, the old school
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 1: police officer, you know, talk knocking on doors, saying hello
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: to the locals. If they walk into a business and
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 1: shake the business down for protection money, that is not
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 1: engaging in activities related to law enforcement or their job.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 1: That's engaging in criminal activity. And yes, they can be
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: held accountable for that. So that's the distinction that needs
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 1: to be drawn. So as good as I can go
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 1: before you, Karen, right, have a great day, and thanks
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: for tuning into the program. Speaking of which, fifty five
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 1: casy dot com get your iHeart media app way over
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 1: there so you can listen to content we're going to
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 1: happen to be And a big, big, big thanks to
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 1: those out there who do stream the audio provides us
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 1: some accurate information on the folks tuning into the show.
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: Let us see here, where was that? Oh yeah, red
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: a warning sign on this and I'm going to acknowledge
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: I am is concerned maybe the appropriate word for this?
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 1: Do we need to be concerned that? Am I on
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: the wrong side of logic and reason when it comes
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 1: to matters political? I'm sure there's a bunch of leftists
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: out there, socialists that would say yeah. But in Texas,
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: Taylor Remitt beat the Republican challenger, Leah Wam's Gnass, in
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 1: a Senate election happened on Saturday, a special election. Remitt's
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 1: described as a labor union leader and Air Force veteran.
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 1: This Leah wams Gnass just described as a conservative actor,
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: at least Fox News reporting on it. This in Fort Worth,
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 1: the Democrat beat the Republican challenger by fourteen points. But
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: what's really crazy about this, This was a jurisdiction that
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 1: Trump took by like seventeen points. Of course, the Democrat
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 1: National Committee Chairman Ken Martin's calling it a warning sign
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 1: to Republicans across the country. And that's kind of why
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 1: I'm saying it out loud. You know, you got to
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 1: get up off your button, go out and vote. So
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 1: the original the seat was opened GOP Senator Kelly Hancocked
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 1: been there for a long time, like four terms or
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: something like that, took a statewide post so evacated the seat.
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 1: Republicans held the district for decades and again four terms
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 1: for the departing GOP Senator Kelly Hancock. They say the
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: district even more Republican than its home county of Terrance,
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 1: so the district within the county. Trump won the county
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 1: by five points, but carried this district that the Democrat
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 1: won by seventeen points. Now it's pointed out that the
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 1: Democrat had received a lot of money Democrat National Democrat
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: backing support from the DNC veteran group called vote Vets,
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 1: which of course he was a veteran. Vote Vets itself
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 1: spent five hundred thousand dollars on advertising. He campaigned on
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 1: lowering costs, protecting jobs, and supporting public education. Now I
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 1: have no idea what the Republican campaign on. Maybe the
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 1: Republican was just a terrible candidate, and that's the only
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 1: thing I'm going to try to hang my hat on.
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 1: A terrible person was put up. Although Trump did support
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: a race didn't work. Now he's got to win. The
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 1: Democrat has to win the November general election to hold
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: the seat for a full four year term. So this
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: is a short term deal. His term runs out in January,
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 1: because of course the vacation of the seat by the GOP.
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: And in the Texas Senate, the Republicans still maintain what
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: is described as a comfortable majority.
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 9: But I.
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 1: Should we be reading anything into this. I'd like to
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: see the voter turnout roles. That would be very insightful.
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: And I think, of course the race in November in
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 1: the city of Cincinnati where only one in four registered
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 1: voters bothered to show up, and we see obviously what
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 1: we got in return for that. But considering the massive
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 1: margin of victory for Republicans and how many decades that
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 1: has been held by a Republican, and maybe there is
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 1: something to see here. I'd love to see exit polling
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 1: which might reflect why people went for the Democrat rather
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 1: than the Republican. Maybe'd be a little bit more revealing
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 1: than me speculating. Let's see what Matt's got this morning. Matt,
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: thanks for calling the Morning Show. Happy Monday to you.
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I'm buying. Thanks for taking my call. Yeah, I
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 10: got a comment on that top of the hour news
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 10: well number one, thanks for brooming the bottom of the
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 10: hour news on your program. But you guys used to
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 10: have Fox News yep, years ago, and I don't did
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 10: Fox News get.
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 4: Out of the radio now?
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 6: No, no, no, no no.
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 1: The problem is you have bottom line. Every business has
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 1: a bottom line, right, Okay, when you're buying the cheapest
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 1: available news out there, because you don't want to spend
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 1: as much as maybe Fox News charges. Then that's what
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: you end up with. Forty five seconds of Grammy reporting
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 1: or other reporting like what's Lady Ga Gay eating for breakfast?
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 1: You're gonna get that more than what's going on in
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 1: Iran or something. And I'm saying it angrily out loud
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 1: because I had a conversation with one of the vice
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 1: presidents here with my employer, and I mentioned to them
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 1: that I hear from people all the time complaining about
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: the top of the Iron News. Really I didn't know that. Well, yeah,
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 1: considering the political leanings of the fifty five Case Morning show, yeah,
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 1: they don't cut the mustard. It's terrible. And even if
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 1: it's not politically left leaning commentary, if they're actually talking
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 1: about something in political or justifiable to be in the
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 1: top of the Iron News a minute, it is right.
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 1: It's got entertainment in it. I don't think, seriously, Matt,
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 1: do you pay attention to anything involving what celebrities are
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 1: doing at any given time or who won the Grammy
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: or the Emmy or the Oscar. Does that impact your
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 1: life or your world?
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 7: Matt?
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 1: No, thank you you and I at least can fall
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 1: squarely into that camp. Thank you for helping me to
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 1: double down on anger and disappointment with the top of
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 1: the Ron News. If I'm not here tomorrow, if I'm
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 1: not sick, I lost my situation for complaining about my employer, right, Joe,
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 1: because I'm not supposed to do anything like that. I
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: know I did, you didn't, and it's it's out there
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 1: for the rest of It's gonna be on the podcast tomorrow,
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 1: Joe or later later today. I can't unring the bell
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 1: what I just said, can I? But he did ask
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: me to forward complaints to him to the extent I
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 1: got andy, He's seen open to the whole concept. Coming
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 1: up at seven fifteen to fifty five k s the
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 1: talk station. Wow. The older I get, the more easy
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 1: it is to sort of speak my mind. Sheriff Acts
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 1: credit Union Love. I've been begging for themy credit union
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 1: for a long long time. Of course, Sheriffs for indulging me.
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: I had to get it out of my system. Welcome back,
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 1: my friend. Love having you on the show.
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 7: Oh, thank you so much. I love being on your show,
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 7: so I appreciate the opportunity. You know. I want to
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 7: start off with just wishing you and everyone you're listening
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 7: audience a happy Black Black histor Months. And you've entered
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 7: Black We've entered Black History Months, and you know each
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 7: time I did the four times on my show with you,
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 7: the smither Vent. I'm just gonna drop a little knowledge
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 7: before I go into the event, and I'll be brief
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 7: about it. But first just note that this is American history.
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 7: You know, at the end of the day we call
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 7: it Black History Month, but it's American history. And I'm
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 7: gonna highlight I'm gonna highlight tuch Gigee University an institution
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 7: because there are a lot of people in our country
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 7: that do not know that HBCUs. Historically, black colleges and
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 7: universities are all around us in the United States of America.
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 7: These are higher education institutions that are incredibly important to America.
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 7: And my parents, doctor Herbert Smitherman and Barbara Smitherman, met
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 7: at Tuskegee University in Alabama. My parents were both from Alabama.
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 7: They did not have access to what would what we
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 7: would call white American institutions. When they graduated from high school,
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 7: they had to attend HBCUs. My parents were born in
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 7: the nineteen thirties, and so my mother was Miss Tuskegee.
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 7: I'm very proud of that. I always tease my dad,
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 7: how did you pull? Literally, how did you date the
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 7: queen of Tuskegee. We would just laugh about that. I say,
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 7: I say, Dad, you had to have some serious games Tugeecovery.
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 7: I absolutely did, and I'm glad he did because if
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 7: he did, I wouldn't exist.
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 1: I'm with you.
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 7: So that was a running joke in our family. But
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 7: on a serious note, Tuskegee has been around since eighteen
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 7: eighty one, so it's been around for one hundred and
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 7: forty five years. It's a private institution located in Alabama.
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 7: And you know, there are students that are graduating in
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 7: May all across the city of Cincinnati, and they might
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 7: be attending one of our HBCUs out end with this
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 7: employers out there. When students are graduating from more House
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 7: or Spellman or Howard or Tuskegee as examples of historically
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 7: black colleges and universities, look at those students very closely
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 7: as you would look at them if they were coming
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 7: from Harvard Yale, or if they were coming from the
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 7: Ohio State University or Bow and Green State University or Miamia, Ohio.
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 7: These are great institutions. They educate really great students. And
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 7: there are white students and Black students and Latino students
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 7: now who attend all of these HBCUs. So that is
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 7: my Black History Month start of just talking about American history.
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 1: Fair enough, I honestly I know about historically black college
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 1: universities understood in these very left leaning times and these
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 1: and racially charged learning exercises DEI and that kind of thing.
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 1: Are you aware of whether these historically black college universities
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 1: have adopted that sort of leftist mentality mantra that seemingly
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 1: all universities have adopted, or have they sort of maintained
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 1: that straightforward traditional so we say classical type education, very.
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 7: Very traditional educations. If you remember President Biden spoke at
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 7: more Houses graduation. Everybody should google it. It was not
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 7: shown on places like MSNBC. Many of those graduates stood
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 7: and turned their back to President Biden as he gave
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 7: the keynote address approximately a year ago. So understand when
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 7: you go to these institutions, these students are very aware
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 7: of history. They understood President Biden's history and lack of
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 7: board of the African American community, and they were not
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 7: happy that he was selected as their commencement speaker. But again,
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 7: you would never see that shown right on TV, but
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 7: that absolutely happened at Morehouse universities. You tend to have
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 7: more conservative people who attend these institutions, and you know,
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 7: many of them have Baptists or some type of religious
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 7: foundations in many of the institutions that were established well.
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 1: And there's that all critical element of religion which seems
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 1: to be going the way of the Dodo in the
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 1: United States. I think that may be part of the
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 1: fundamental problem we face as a culture here. Christopher.
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 7: Yes, and what you're seeing is many African American families
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 7: are choosing to send their children to these historically black
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 7: colleges and universities for exactly what you said. They want
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 7: their children to have those same conservative, rooted values in
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 7: faith that they had in their life.
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 1: And so they.
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 7: Graduated from I'm a Wilberforce or they graduated from a
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 7: Central State and they want their children to get that
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 7: same kind of rooted education in America. So, yes, you're
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 7: seeing a lot of because you're seeing a lot of
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 7: white American families sending their children South, for example, to
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 7: attend some of these institutions because they're concerned about their
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 7: children being indoctrinated in the left mentality of the left environment.
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 7: So again, these are great institutions. I encourage places like
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 7: Procter and Gamble and Western Southern and Fifth Third who
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 7: are locally if you have students that have graduated from
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 7: these HBTU institutions like my father and like my mother.
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 7: My father worked at Procter and Gamble was hired in
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 7: the nineteen sixties. He was the first African American hired
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 7: in the United States of America with a PhD. It's
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 7: our family is very honored by my father's accomplishments at
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 7: Procter Gamble. My point is that these students that come
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 7: out are the best and the brightest, and our institution
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 7: should be looking at those resumes very closely.
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 1: I appreciate that allowed me. Oh man, No, that's wonderful, Christopher,
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 1: and I'm glad to hear what you just said. That's
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 1: fantastic and it's different from what I would have presumed.
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 1: So we'll bring Christopher back. Maybe he'll start venting his spleen.
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 1: Since that was a great upright, You've been warned Christopher
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 1: Smithman will be back, be back just a minute. Here,
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 1: you're finished the USA installation. I'll bet you wish you
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: it's seven thirty here if if you have KCD talk
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 1: station Brian Thomas with former Vice Mayor of the City Sincinnati,
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: Christopher smith Avan doing a smith event. Time to launch.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 1: I guess three two one, right.
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 7: Brother, I tell you, I am very frustrated with the
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 7: extreme left. You know, I've just been thinking about it
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 7: all week. I'm tired of all of the protests. They're fake,
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 7: you know. When this is all regarding Ice, this is
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 7: all made up because they're interested in power, getting power,
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 7: controlling power, impacting the mid term elections. The most recent
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 7: discussion about the shut down and ICE, all of this
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 7: is manufactured because the Democrats, right, like a Schumer, we're
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 7: all supporting ICE. They're videos out there with speeches with
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 7: President Clinton, President Obama, President Bush, all of them supporting ICE,
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 7: all of them saying that they supported removing people who
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 7: came to this country illegally and getting criminals, people who
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 7: are gang members gang banging in our country. You're a
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 7: visitor in our country and you're gang banging. Those are
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 7: the people that we are removing. We're removing people who
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 7: are pedophilers, people who have right women on, people who
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 7: are drunk drivers and have killed families. Whether it's whether
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 7: they're whether they're traveling at an eighteen wheller or they're
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 7: driving drunk and they're hitting a van. We want those
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 7: people out of our country. I do not understand the
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 7: left right now and all of these fake protests when
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 7: we're talking about removing criminals, and then when they moved
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 7: to the illegitimate president of Venezuela, this was not the
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 7: president of the United States of America. The Secretary of
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 7: State in his testimony this week, really did a great
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 7: job in front of the Senate hearing. Anybody who did
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 7: not watch that should watch it. He did a masterful
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 7: job answering the questions of the Democrats who with their
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 7: demagogueing on things they didn't even know what they were
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 7: talking about. But at the end of the day, when
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 7: they removed this illegitimate president from Venezuela by the way,
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 7: pushed by Biden, by the way, putting this fifty million
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 7: dollar bounty on his head to have him arrested. He
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 7: had an warrant out for his arrest by the United
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 7: States of America under the Democrat and so these all
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 7: of these fake protests that were happening that they were
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 7: so angry by it. I am just tired of it.
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 7: And a last point is burning our flag. I started
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 7: with Tuskegee, the Tuskegee Airmen, Tuskegee University, Tuskegee Institute being
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 7: around one hundred and forty five years. Look, African Americans,
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 7: White Americans, Latino Americans, we are very patriotic. We love
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 7: our country. We don't like seeing people burning our flags
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 7: and peeing on our flag. That is insane behavior from
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 7: the extreme left. If you don't like our country, get out.
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 7: We'll pay for it. Brian Thomas will pay for it.
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 7: We'll have a pool for it, we'll do split the pots.
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 7: We will do whatever we have to do to pay
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 7: for a ticket to get you the hell out of
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 7: the United States of America. If you don't like our country, yeah.
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 1: Well self deport. That's an option for illegal immigrants who
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 1: want the option to be able to try to apply
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 1: for legal citizenship. I think it's like a twenty five
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 1: hundred dollars check up from one thousand previously and a
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 1: flight home. At least keeps your place available for the
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 1: option of trying you'll trying it legally, and you don't
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 1: take that option. If you're picked up, maybe because you
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 1: did rape a child or something. Out you go after
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 1: you serve your prison sentence here and off you go,
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 1: and you'll never be eligible to come to the United
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 1: States again.
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 7: Right period, right period. And the crazy thing about it
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 7: is I want everybody to make sure you understand that
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 7: I appreciate legal immigration. We are a country of immigrants.
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 7: And by the way, those are the people get up
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 7: every day listening to your show working their butts off.
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 7: And it's not like, oh, I'm working my butt off.
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 7: It's amazing how the Democrats say I'm worried about removing
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 7: immigrants because they're the ones that are doing the labor. Look,
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 7: there are lots of immigrants in this country that do
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 7: that very noble work, work in our hotels, work in
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 7: the restaurant businesses, clean our homes. I respect them deeply
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 7: for their hard work. Period. But there are also people
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 7: that come here who are doctors, who are lawyers, who
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 7: our accountants, who are scientists, who are contributing to our society,
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 7: making this country great, serving our country and our military.
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 7: Every single day dying for our country every single year.
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 7: These are people who have immigrated to our country legally,
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 7: followed the process, became an American citizen, or they're working
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 7: here legally on the right identification. Those are great people
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 7: that are not being deported. No one is focused on
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 7: those people. And the reality of it is when you
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 7: listen to the Democrats who continue to lie about this
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 7: on the left, they keep acting as if those are
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 7: the people that Ice are targeting. That is an absolute
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 7: total lie.
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 1: Let's pause, We'll bring Christopher back. He's on a terror
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 1: I got a couple of questions for you too, Christopher,
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 1: but we'll let you hear. You'll let you get it
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 1: out of your system and they can ask you a
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 1: couple of questions along the lines of what you just
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 1: mentioned there. But first, fast and pro roofing the best
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 1: roofers around. And you know, obviously we have a difficult
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 1: winter situation going on here. Six about Kerse Talk Station Monday,
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 1: which means we're in the middle of the e smither Van,
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 1: former vice mayor of the city of Sincenae, joins the
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 1: program for a few segments every Monday. We'll here from
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 1: Money Monday. Brian James at the top of the Aaron News.
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 1: Would you like to continue your rand? Christopher? I know
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 1: you're not done yet, I really.
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 7: Do you know? The Grammy Awards were yesterday. I went
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 7: to the school. I went to the school. See that reaction,
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 7: that's perfect.
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 1: That's getting me going on that man, go ahead, it's.
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 7: A perfect reaction. See the Grammy Awards. I went to
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 7: the School for Creative and Performing Arts. I graduated from
• 1:27:39
  Speaker 7: Cincinnati Public Schools, public education, and many of my brothers,
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 7: many of my siblings graduated the majority, super majority of them,
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 7: graduated from public education. Look, these are people the Grammy Awards.
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 7: Let's be clear here, very super wealthy people. Number one.
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 7: I'm happy. I'm not player hating on their successes. But
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 7: many of them are walking around with private security, not one,
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 7: not two, not three, not four, five or six bodyguards
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 7: around each one of them. It was one of the
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 7: safest places in a branch, right because everybody is around
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 7: there with their own private security, living in their big
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 7: mansions with their big beautiful gates. They have no place
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 7: standing on mics and dogging out our country. One person's
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 7: making comments about stolen land. Let me be clear, Let
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 7: me be clear. To everybody listening here. My grandmother, who
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 7: was born in the early nineteen hundreds, right, spent a
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 7: long period of time in her life without the ability
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 7: to vote in this country, being a woman and being
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 7: African American, and she loved this country. Her grandparents, her parents, right,
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 7: and grandparents, these they were free flames. My mother's grandparents.
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 7: We're just out of that, born in the eighteen hundred.
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 7: This is my mother now, who's eighty seven years old.
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 7: They my mother loves this country. My father loved this country.
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 7: These people are privileged, living a privileged life, dogging out
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 7: a country that has given them so much. Is it
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 7: blows my mind listening to these grammary people get up
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 7: there and dog out of country that has given them
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 7: so much. I don't care about their political positions about anything.
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 7: I don't want to hear about it. I don't want to.
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 7: I don't want to. I don't want to know anything
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 7: about what their perspective is. Sing your songs, Let me
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 7: enjoy the music that you create, and stay the heck.
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 9: Out of politics.
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 1: I share that sentiment all day long. And in fact,
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 1: as I pointed out over the years, you know a
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 1: lot of the bands that I've liked over the years,
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 1: are very sort of left leading, even though some of
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 1: the lyrics reflect that. But if you can provide me
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 1: with some insight and some thoughts, some legitimate an appearance
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 1: that you actually gave what you were saying, some thought,
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 1: you know, comes together and the music is good, I'm
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 1: probably gonna like it, even though I don't agree with
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 1: it politically. You know that's okay, But you have sold
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 1: something to the American people that the American people want,
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 1: as demonstrated by your success and all that money you
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 1: just pointed out. So do what you're good at, shut
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 1: up and sing, right, that's right.
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 7: But the thing, Brian, is they're making all their money
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 7: off the back of the United States of America. Mean,
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 7: that's the hypocrisy, Like the country that is generating where
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 7: you are worth fifty million dollars, right, you then stand
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 7: on a mic and dog out the United States of America.
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 7: Right while you live in a gated home, while you're
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 7: walking around with bodyguards, you have guns like it's it's
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 7: totally insane, while you're flying around in private jets talking
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 7: about the environment. It makes no sense to me. Most
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 7: of the people in there are nothing but hypocrites. The
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 7: only thing I want them to do is make music
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 7: and shut up. That's it. I don't want to hear
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 7: anything about their politics. And by the way, they have
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 7: nothing in common with a guy by the name of
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 7: Vice President JD. Vance who came from nothing. This guy
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 7: had nothing, his mother, his family, how we lived. This
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 7: man then became the Vice President of the United States
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 7: of America. And you sit there in your plush homes,
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 7: in your gated communities, and you look down on somebody
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 7: like JD. Vance, who came essentially from America, from the
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 7: streets and the gutters, and became the Vice President of
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 7: the United States of America. I'd rather have lunch with
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 7: him than I would with any of those people who
• 1:31:43
  Speaker 7: were opening their mouths yesterday. I can't even watch the
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 7: Grammys anymore because I don't want to hear about their politics.
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 7: I don't even watch that trash. I don't want it
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 7: in my head. I don't want it in my children's
• 1:31:53
  Speaker 7: head because there's nothing but trash.
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 1: Well, it's nothing but trash in a circular pleasure fest
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 1: from the very people who are party exactly what you're
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 1: talking about. Hey, how come none of them had mentioned
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 1: redistribution of the royalties earned by all artists in the
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 1: interest of fairness and equity. So you have achieved success
• 1:32:11
  Speaker 1: because of your musical ability. Call it that you've done really,
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 1: really well. But you know what, there are a thousand
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 1: artists that have all tried to publish their material, posted
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 1: the material online, maybe even have record contracts. They haven't
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 1: sold anywhere near what you sold. You are apparently part
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 1: of the privileged elite. You know the problem in this country.
• 1:32:28
  Speaker 1: You need to give up and relinquish some of that
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 1: redistributed all those other people who haven't done quite as
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 1: well as you. How about that, hey, exactly?
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 7: I mean, it's a beautiful play that you're making. Man,
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 7: Nobody there is saying I'm willing to give up my royalties.
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 7: As a matter of fact, they're sewing. They're suing every
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 7: single distribution center for their music, saying they want every
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 7: single rant scent every time their music is played. They're
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 7: charging every bar in every restaurant fees play their music. Anyway,
• 1:33:01
  Speaker 7: many of these bars and restaurants around this region are
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 7: writing checks like twenty thousand dollars a year just to
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 7: play their freaking music and have and so that these
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 7: artists get their royalties who are represented by unions. You
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 7: are so right, Brian Thomas. I had not even thought
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 7: about that point, as they're fending there talking with their
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 7: mpocracy and collecting their royalties.
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 1: I just love the opportunity to feed off your rant
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 1: stick around. I do want to raise a couple of
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 1: questions with you when we come back, Christopher Smithman, hold
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 1: you over for the whole time seventy nine thinking about
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 1: KRCD talk station. Have be Monday Money Money with Brian
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 1: James at the top of the air news meantime, hold
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 1: over with Christopher Smithman because you brought up in the
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 1: bottom of the air at seven thirty Christopher. The whole
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 1: idea that this anti Ice, their efforts to throw out
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 1: hardened criminals and rapists and murders and just any number
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 1: of crime. As a matter of fact, you probably name
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 1: any crime. You've got illustrations of an illegal immigrant committing
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 1: in here. People have died here in the United States,
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 1: on and on and on, well documented. So how come
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 1: it is now the Democrats are all screaming about border enforcement,
• 1:34:06
  Speaker 1: and they're all screaming about ICE and their activities, and
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 1: they hate it, and Ice is evil. We need a
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 1: defund ice question. And I'll give props to Larry Elder
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 1: over I believe let me see, I believe it his
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 1: Daily call er. It doesn't matter where it got it,
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 1: but Larry Elder gets credit for this anyway. He pulled
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 1: out some quotes. Let me ask you, Christopher Smithman, who
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 1: said this quote, We simply cannot allow people to pour
• 1:34:29
  Speaker 1: it into the United States, undetected, undocumented, unchecked, and circumventing
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 1: the line of people who are waiting patiently, diligently, and
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 1: lawfully to become immigrants in this country. Would that be
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump or would that be.
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 7: Obama?
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 1: Actually, Senator of Barack Obama, you're right, you got the
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 1: right guy, two thousand and five. That's a quote ready
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 1: quote number two. Real reform means stronger border security, putting
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 1: more boots on the southern border than at any time
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 1: in our history, and reducing illegal crossings to their lowest
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 1: level in forty years. Trump or Obama?
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 7: Clinton?
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 1: Nope, Obama, I'm going to say you were CLUBB. We'll
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 1: get to him. That was Obama in twenty thirteen. Now
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 1: here's a curveball. Think, senators and very powerful ones. Illegal
• 1:35:14
  Speaker 1: immigration is wrong, plain and simple people who enter the
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 1: United States without our permission are illegal aliens, and illegal
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 1: aliens should not be treated the same as people who
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 1: enter our country legally. Until the American people are convinced
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 1: that we will stop future flows of illegal immigration, we
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 1: will make no progress on dealing with the millions of
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 1: illegal immigrants who are here now. We will use phrases
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 1: like undocumented workers. We convey a message to the American
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 1: people that their government is not serious about combating illegal immigration.
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 1: If you don't think it's illegal, you're not going to
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 1: say it. And I think it's illegal and wrong. Close
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 1: quote Senator Chucky Schumer, two thousand and nine. You get
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 1: a star quote, because we do need to address the
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 1: issue of immigration and the challenges we have of undocumented
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 1: people in our country. We certainly don't want any more
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 1: coming in. Think of powerful, powerful House speakers. Nancy Pelosi,
• 1:36:09
  Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi, two thousand and eight. Here's another one going. Okay,
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 1: you called this one a little early, Bill Clinton, nineteen
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 1: ninety five. All Americans are rightly disturbed by the large
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 1: numbers of illegal aliens entering our country. We are a
• 1:36:22
  Speaker 1: nation of immigrants, but we are also a nation of laws.
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 1: And then Finally, if making it easy to be an
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 1: illegal alien isn't enough, how about offering award for being
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 1: an illegal immigrant? No sane country would do that. Right,
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 1: if you break our laws by entering this country without
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 1: permission and give birth to a child, we reward that
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 1: child with us citizenship. Was that evil Orange man? Or
• 1:36:47
  Speaker 1: was that Senator Harry Reid? Christopher knowing the answer to
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 1: the question at a time?
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 3: Where in the hell do these people go?
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's right, they're still there.
• 1:36:58
  Speaker 7: We all should post these quotes on our social media platforms, don't.
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 7: It drives Democrats crazy when they hear these fact patterns, right, Like,
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 7: just weeding all of those is just totally insane, Like
• 1:37:11
  Speaker 7: you should do that every single week. It is because
• 1:37:14
  Speaker 7: there's so many quotes out there by these big statements
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 7: that they've made over the years. It's just absolutely amazing.
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 7: Let me end by saying this to you. The election
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 7: in November coming up is huge. We have a gubernatorial race,
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 7: right We have Governor Vivek Ramaswami, who I am supporting
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 7: for governor state of Ohio. Listen, we must elect him.
• 1:37:39
  Speaker 7: I do not want to look like Virginia is looking.
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 7: Right now, they made a mistake. We can look at
• 1:37:45
  Speaker 7: the mistake that they made and make sure that we
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 7: do not repeat that mistake. That is incredibly important to
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 7: me and important to the state of Ohio that we
• 1:37:54
  Speaker 7: secure what's happening at the state for the next eight years.
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 7: You know, our counties, our city are going so liberal
• 1:38:01
  Speaker 7: and so blue. There's no way I want to see
• 1:38:03
  Speaker 7: the state of Ohio and it end up in that
• 1:38:06
  Speaker 7: kind of part. I don't want to wake up and
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 7: see David Pepper, who who has lived a very privileged life,
• 1:38:13
  Speaker 7: whereas the vek Ramaswami came from most likely a middle
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 7: class family with to say that family worked very hard,
• 1:38:20
  Speaker 7: he was a businessman, made some good decisions, became very
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 7: very wealthy. That is not true for David Pepper. And
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 7: I'm not hating on David Pepper and his family for
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 7: doing well and making sure that he lived a very
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 7: privileged life. But David Pepper has to own that. Stop
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 7: acting as if you are just the champion for public
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 7: education when he's spent in his family spent their entire
• 1:38:44
  Speaker 7: life making sure he avoided public education, and they sent
• 1:38:47
  Speaker 7: him to the best private schools at every single level,
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 7: whether it was preschool, whether it was grade school, whether
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 7: it was high school, or whether it was his university study,
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 7: all of it is baked in private and so when
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 7: we talk about school choice, meaning David Pepper doesn't want
• 1:39:05
  Speaker 7: poor people, whether they're black or Latino or white, to
• 1:39:08
  Speaker 7: have the same choice that his family was able to
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 7: pay for.
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 1: Christopher Smithman always knocking out of the park, my friend.

• 1:40:05
  Speaker 1: up or be that guy who tries to buy things
• 1:40:07
  Speaker 1: after the giant surgeon price, because you're gonna get burned.
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 1: I guess a lot of people got burned on gold.
• 1:40:13
  Speaker 1: Man it the range for fifty two weeks. I'm looking
• 1:40:15
  Speaker 1: at the journal, five hundred and sixty two dollars and
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 1: twenty six an ounce, and at one point within this
• 1:40:21
  Speaker 1: calendar year it was trading at twenty eight hundred dollars.
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 1: It lost like geez, six eight hundred dollars over the
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 1: past day or something. What the hell happened? What's this
• 1:40:30
  Speaker 1: all about? If you can feel it? If you can't,
• 1:40:32
  Speaker 1: then you know we can just move on, Brian.
• 1:40:34
  Speaker 11: Well, eventually, you know, this is what we always talk about, Brian,
• 1:40:37
  Speaker 11: because the gold is worth nothing more than what the
• 1:40:39
  Speaker 11: herd says it is, So you know, and I want
• 1:40:42
  Speaker 11: to want to adjust the time old phrase of catching
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 11: a falling knife, Well, this is like trying to catch
• 1:40:47
  Speaker 11: a rising knife too. There's nothing to look at to
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 11: say that the gold should be worth this should be
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 11: worth that. It's simply the herd wants to rush into it,
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 11: and eventually the herd is going to turn. And I
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 11: got to think there's some smart money in this that
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 11: knows that the herd is going to move, and they
• 1:41:03
  Speaker 11: have ways of taking advantage of that and then pulling
• 1:41:06
  Speaker 11: the rug out from under everybody. Because there again, gold
• 1:41:08
  Speaker 11: has no way to say, here's this new product we're inventing,
• 1:41:12
  Speaker 11: or here's a new market we're getting into, or we're
• 1:41:13
  Speaker 11: going to cut expenses this way, and that's going to
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 11: make profitability different. That's what the public stock market do.
• 1:41:19
  Speaker 11: That's what publicly traded stocks can do to inflate their value.
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 11: We're seeing it in the tech industry now where they're
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 11: laying off tens of thousands of people, which is that's
• 1:41:27
  Speaker 11: not a good thing if you're want of those people.
• 1:41:28
  Speaker 11: But that's a lever that a company can pull to
• 1:41:31
  Speaker 11: maintain its profit margin. Gold has no profit margin. It
• 1:41:34
  Speaker 11: is worth nothing more than what the herd says when
• 1:41:36
  Speaker 11: it stampedes in or out, and we've just seen the
• 1:41:38
  Speaker 11: stampede leave the car out.
• 1:41:40
  Speaker 1: So if I can draw a parallel, please call me
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 1: out as dead wrong. Is this kind of like a
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 1: meme stock kind of thing where you can get people
• 1:41:47
  Speaker 1: to just pile on and start buying like game stop,
• 1:41:50
  Speaker 1: just because well it's a mean thing and it's going
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 1: up even though the company itself has zero value.
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 11: You know that has a great, great point And I
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 11: had not thought of it until this would be a
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 11: perfect means. There's no insider trading. Goal doesn't have board
• 1:42:02
  Speaker 11: meetings that somebody may have caught wind of or seen
• 1:42:04
  Speaker 11: a secret email or whatever. It's just something that you
• 1:42:07
  Speaker 11: can attract people to buy, no different than crypto when
• 1:42:10
  Speaker 11: we have coins come out related to really nothing important
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 11: in history, but the herd will chase it. And I
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 11: would say, if you're somebody who is willing to manipulate
• 1:42:20
  Speaker 11: these markets to manipulate the buyers, this is a probably
• 1:42:22
  Speaker 11: a good place to get away with it.
• 1:42:24
  Speaker 3: I think you've uncovered a conspiracy brand I have.
• 1:42:28
  Speaker 1: Which is why keep your money and have it managed
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 1: by a prudent financial planner who's sitting on your side
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 1: of the table is your produciary duty, and you don't
• 1:42:35
  Speaker 1: try to play the market because you're never going to
• 1:42:37
  Speaker 1: be able to catch up. Stick it in there. Now.
• 1:42:40
  Speaker 1: I guess the other parallel or correlaor to this may
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 1: be maybe not a bitcoin tanked as well. And I've
• 1:42:45
  Speaker 1: never had any faith in bitcoins or any other of
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 1: the cryptocurrencies, just because it's like peace of God for me.
• 1:42:51
  Speaker 1: But you know that one also fell down. It was
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 1: supposed to go to one hundred thousand dollars and it
• 1:42:54
  Speaker 1: lost I don't know, ten twelve thousand dollars the other
• 1:42:57
  Speaker 1: day or something.
• 1:42:58
  Speaker 11: Yeah, So there was negative news that the President Trump
• 1:43:01
  Speaker 11: nominated Kevin Warsh as a Federal Reserve chair. We're gonna
• 1:43:03
  Speaker 11: talk about him here in a little bit anyway. And
• 1:43:05
  Speaker 11: he's kind of a hawkish pick that generally supports tighter
• 1:43:09
  Speaker 11: monetary policy stronger dollar. A stronger dollar can suck liquidity
• 1:43:13
  Speaker 11: out of things like crypto.
• 1:43:14
  Speaker 3: So that's that's part of the reaction to.
• 1:43:16
  Speaker 11: This, that people think the demand may fall because the
• 1:43:19
  Speaker 11: government may pivot slightly away. And I would say this
• 1:43:22
  Speaker 11: is Trump is all about interest rates. He wants them
• 1:43:24
  Speaker 11: to be at zero as soon as possible, and that
• 1:43:27
  Speaker 11: is more important than supporting the crypto markets. Although President
• 1:43:30
  Speaker 11: Trump has said he is a major supporter of crypto
• 1:43:33
  Speaker 11: but not last week.
• 1:43:34
  Speaker 1: Okay, fair enough, And since the first topic is or
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 1: was the FED chair, I keep reading articles about the
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 1: value of dollar or the dollar devaluation and dollar having
• 1:43:46
  Speaker 1: a dollar being a strong fa currency. For some reason, devaluation,
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 1: I guess is a good thing. Sometimes that doesn't sound
• 1:43:53
  Speaker 1: right to me.
• 1:43:53
  Speaker 3: Brian James, Well, it depends on what you're trying to buy.
• 1:43:56
  Speaker 11: If you're it depends on which side of transactions you
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 11: when it comes to this global economy that we pretty
• 1:44:03
  Speaker 11: much still live in, even though the world doesn't work
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 11: that way. So investors are worried about structural dollar devaluation
• 1:44:08
  Speaker 11: because of of course our US deficits rising federal debt
• 1:44:12
  Speaker 11: servicing costs with interest rates going up, and of course
• 1:44:14
  Speaker 11: political pressure on the Fed to ease policy, and that
• 1:44:18
  Speaker 11: of course is something that we've dabbled with that in
• 1:44:20
  Speaker 11: the past. Right, we've had presidents lean on the FED.
• 1:44:22
  Speaker 11: Shair Nixon did it right before the election. That never
• 1:44:26
  Speaker 11: happened because because he got thrown out of office, but
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 11: that led to stagflation, and so I think people are
• 1:44:32
  Speaker 11: a little spooked by that. And this is why we
• 1:44:35
  Speaker 11: saw golden crypto rally so hard into the end of
• 1:44:38
  Speaker 11: the month, right up until last week, until we pulled
• 1:44:42
  Speaker 11: the rug with the nomination of Kevin worsh We're not
• 1:44:44
  Speaker 11: the nomination, but we really like super like Kevin Rush.
• 1:44:47
  Speaker 3: I guess is what he's trying to.
• 1:44:48
  Speaker 1: Say, the gold star candidate currently exactly.
• 1:44:51
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:44:51
  Speaker 11: So, but last year a dollar devaluation didn't save crypto
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 11: because the short term reality was better than the long
• 1:44:57
  Speaker 11: term theory. Last week, the dollar strengthened, not weakend after
• 1:45:01
  Speaker 11: the news pointed to a more hawkish FED path because
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 11: when the dollar rises, liquidity tightens globally, and that means
• 1:45:06
  Speaker 11: speculative assets tend to fall.
• 1:45:08
  Speaker 3: So we saw all those things come together.
• 1:45:09
  Speaker 1: Last week, all right, And in a Federal Reserve chairman,
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 1: I have always enjoyed pretty much rock solid independence, and
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 1: I always think of the Carter administration in that porteria
• 1:45:18
  Speaker 1: of time, because Jimmy Carter was just just pleading with
• 1:45:24
  Speaker 1: knee pads to beg the Federal Reserve chairman to lower
• 1:45:27
  Speaker 1: the interest rates, and that didn't happen because the massive
• 1:45:29
  Speaker 1: inflation going on, but it didn't work for Carter. And
• 1:45:32
  Speaker 1: I'm just wondering, historically speaking, Donald Trump screaming and yellow
• 1:45:36
  Speaker 1: buck at the interest rates lower. Because Kevin Wash happens
• 1:45:39
  Speaker 1: to be the current gold Star candidate likely nominee, is
• 1:45:43
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump going to be able to manipulate him? I mean,
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 1: if I can use that word, it's not a pejorative,
• 1:45:47
  Speaker 1: but that's kind of what it boils down to.
• 1:45:49
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean, I think that's what it boils down
• 1:45:51
  Speaker 11: to to absolutely everybody he's put in place is it's
• 1:45:53
  Speaker 11: somebody he can control to do his bidding. Otherwise he
• 1:45:55
  Speaker 11: wouldn't be attacking the current fed chair that.
• 1:45:58
  Speaker 3: He put in place.
• 1:45:59
  Speaker 11: By the way, let's not forget that Jerome Powell was
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 11: put in place by Trump and Trump now wants to
• 1:46:03
  Speaker 11: apparently ruin him personally as well as get him out.
• 1:46:05
  Speaker 1: Of the seat.
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 3: But whatever.
• 1:46:07
  Speaker 11: So I can't imagine he's going to put somebody in
• 1:46:09
  Speaker 11: who is not going to who is not going to
• 1:46:11
  Speaker 11: do his bidding per se, because that is just not
• 1:46:14
  Speaker 11: the history there, and he doesn't. He's not somebody who
• 1:46:16
  Speaker 11: likes to give up any control at all. So it
• 1:46:19
  Speaker 11: would shock me if they were the case.
• 1:46:20
  Speaker 1: All right, So let's say Donald Trump's you. Hey, you know,
• 1:46:24
  Speaker 1: Kevin I made you Federal Reserve chairman. You better damn
• 1:46:26
  Speaker 1: We'll lower the interest rates. Interest rates lower, and the
• 1:46:28
  Speaker 1: inevitable happens, which is predictably, that inflation goes up. Right, Yep,
• 1:46:33
  Speaker 1: absolutely what we're looking at. So I guess, if you
• 1:46:36
  Speaker 1: could guess, and I know you won't know, how quickly
• 1:46:39
  Speaker 1: do the markets react? How quickly does inflation go up
• 1:46:44
  Speaker 1: after interest rates are lowered? In other words, when are
• 1:46:47
  Speaker 1: we going to see this disaster that many people are
• 1:46:49
  Speaker 1: predicting if they do lower the interest rates too much?
• 1:46:52
  Speaker 1: And then at that point I presume even Kevin Walsh
• 1:46:54
  Speaker 1: would reverse course and raise interest rates to deal with
• 1:46:57
  Speaker 1: rising inflation. But that cycle takes a while, doesn't it.
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 3: That absolutely does. So it takes a while.
• 1:47:02
  Speaker 11: Inflation usually responds with a lag of about six to
• 1:47:05
  Speaker 11: eighteen months. It's not immediate, and it almost never shows
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 11: up in CPI the same quarter rates are cut. So
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 11: what happens is we get our big announcement that yes,
• 1:47:12
  Speaker 11: we have a person in there who made a decision
• 1:47:14
  Speaker 11: and rates made a move somehow, but it doesn't actually
• 1:47:17
  Speaker 11: trickle through for half a year, year and a half
• 1:47:19
  Speaker 11: from now, and so it takes a while for the
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 11: headlines to match up with what people are thinking in
• 1:47:24
  Speaker 11: the moment.
• 1:47:25
  Speaker 3: So if you FED Chair.
• 1:47:27
  Speaker 11: Powell or future FED chair potential FED chair Warsh make
• 1:47:30
  Speaker 11: a decision the President doesn't agree with, there'll be a
• 1:47:32
  Speaker 11: lot of headlines and a lot of vitriol about it now,
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 11: and that will drive short term chaos, of course, but
• 1:47:38
  Speaker 11: the long term won't show up for a half year
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 11: to even longer.
• 1:47:42
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, in the interest of not running over,
• 1:47:45
  Speaker 1: we'll just take a brief slice off of this segment
• 1:47:47
  Speaker 1: because we're gonna be talking about Trump child savings accounts.
• 1:47:50
  Speaker 1: It will give Brian James an opportunity to talk me
• 1:47:52
  Speaker 1: out of thinking it's a good idea. Maybe it is
• 1:47:55
  Speaker 1: a bad idea. I don't know. Trump Child savings accounts
• 1:47:57
  Speaker 1: coming up next. Then we're going to learn about the
• 1:47:59
  Speaker 1: idea of using four to oh one cas for housing
• 1:48:01
  Speaker 1: down payments, which I think sounds like a really bad idea.
• 1:48:05
  Speaker 1: It's eight fourteen more with Brian James and Money Money
• 1:48:08
  Speaker 1: after these words fifty five KRC and ker City Talk
• 1:48:12
  Speaker 1: Station is Money Monday with Brian James. Every Monday, beginning
• 1:48:15
  Speaker 1: at eight h five. All right, Brian pivoting over the
• 1:48:18
  Speaker 1: Trump savings accounts. I again thought it was a good idea.
• 1:48:21
  Speaker 1: It certainly since the kids can't access the one thousand dollars.
• 1:48:26
  Speaker 1: This is the this starting dollar map that comes from
• 1:48:28
  Speaker 1: the government, goes to an account, can't take it out
• 1:48:31
  Speaker 1: until eighteen It's going to compound the interest compounding over
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 1: eighteen years. It really is a great illustration of the
• 1:48:37
  Speaker 1: beauty of compounding, which I know you embrace, Brian James,
• 1:48:41
  Speaker 1: but also gets children maybe perhaps interested in watching the
• 1:48:45
  Speaker 1: growth of that money. There's also an opportunity for employers
• 1:48:48
  Speaker 1: and family members to add to that. And there's also
• 1:48:51
  Speaker 1: this philanthropic reality out there. I know Michael and Susan
• 1:48:55
  Speaker 1: Dell Foundation already promised six point two five billion dollars
• 1:49:00
  Speaker 1: to give aout two hundred and fifty bucks extra for
• 1:49:02
  Speaker 1: these accounts at least for twenty five million American children
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 1: in certain income qualified zips. They're allowed to give to
• 1:49:08
  Speaker 1: whoever they want. But this is a great place to
• 1:49:10
  Speaker 1: park it because it's going to add to that ROI
• 1:49:13
  Speaker 1: am I missing something in this, Brian James thinking it's
• 1:49:16
  Speaker 1: a good idea, no, I mean.
• 1:49:18
  Speaker 3: I don't hate it.
• 1:49:19
  Speaker 11: I wonder how it's gonna be because this is remember
• 1:49:21
  Speaker 11: that these are only going to children born between twenty
• 1:49:24
  Speaker 11: twenty five and twenty twenty eight. Accidentally, yeah, the Trump
• 1:49:28
  Speaker 11: term here, And so we're gonna have this class of
• 1:49:30
  Speaker 11: people who had this, and then some poor kid will
• 1:49:33
  Speaker 11: have born born January twenty first, twenty twenty nine and
• 1:49:36
  Speaker 11: will not have it.
• 1:49:37
  Speaker 3: So what does that mean sixty five years from now
• 1:49:38
  Speaker 3: when all these kids are retired.
• 1:49:40
  Speaker 11: I mean the I like the idea of setting up
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 11: something that, first of all, you don't have a choice about. Right,
• 1:49:46
  Speaker 11: it's gonna be invested all in the stock market. They
• 1:49:48
  Speaker 11: even put the math in the announcement from the Treasury
• 1:49:54
  Speaker 11: basically assumes ten percent rate of return. There's just a
• 1:49:56
  Speaker 11: little nugget in here that says one thousand dollars could
• 1:49:58
  Speaker 11: turn into a half million dollars by retirement. So they're
• 1:50:01
  Speaker 11: literally saying, a new born today, and I did the math,
• 1:50:04
  Speaker 11: that's a ten percent rate of return. They don't cite that,
• 1:50:07
  Speaker 11: which is interesting because if I'm going to say anything
• 1:50:09
  Speaker 11: like that, I have to show the math and all
• 1:50:10
  Speaker 11: that other stuff.
• 1:50:11
  Speaker 1: Historically, historically it's more like eight, right, I mean, if
• 1:50:14
  Speaker 1: we're really going to be serious about this, I mean, truthfully, no.
• 1:50:17
  Speaker 3: The stock market has average ten percent.
• 1:50:19
  Speaker 11: If you do the math that is that means that
• 1:50:21
  Speaker 11: is over the longest of long periods of time, but
• 1:50:24
  Speaker 11: that includes two thousand and eight and all that that.
• 1:50:26
  Speaker 11: But people who don't understand the history will simply assume
• 1:50:29
  Speaker 11: that I should get ten percent every year. It's like
• 1:50:30
  Speaker 11: a CD No. Some years you're going to lose twenty
• 1:50:32
  Speaker 11: five percent. Yeah, but the next year it's going to
• 1:50:34
  Speaker 11: return an extra thirty five and then get back to normal.
• 1:50:36
  Speaker 11: And over the longest periods of time. Yes, the stock
• 1:50:39
  Speaker 11: market has average ten percent. And so I guess it's
• 1:50:41
  Speaker 11: not incorrect to say that the one thousand dollars growing
• 1:50:46
  Speaker 11: for sixty five years, I'm assuming that's the age meeting
• 1:50:48
  Speaker 11: that they mean by retirement. That's usually what the government
• 1:50:50
  Speaker 11: thinks of, but they don't mention that either. But that
• 1:50:52
  Speaker 11: will grow mathematically to a half million dollars.
• 1:50:55
  Speaker 1: It sounds me like with this with regard to this
• 1:50:57
  Speaker 1: eligibility pairer. Between January one of last year and December
• 1:51:01
  Speaker 1: thirty first of twenty eight, they've taken a play out
• 1:51:04
  Speaker 1: of the typical playbook. You create a government program, maybe
• 1:51:07
  Speaker 1: like temporary assistance with insurance payments because of COVID nineteen,
• 1:51:12
  Speaker 1: and once those are in play, when they time, when
• 1:51:14
  Speaker 1: it comes time to disappear, pursuing to the deadline at
• 1:51:17
  Speaker 1: which we all knew ahead of time they were going
• 1:51:19
  Speaker 1: to disappear people well and nash teeth, and it becomes
• 1:51:21
  Speaker 1: an election issue to keep that in place. So wait
• 1:51:24
  Speaker 1: for it coming into twenty twenty eight. That people see
• 1:51:26
  Speaker 1: this disappearing, aren't going to start screaming about where's my
• 1:51:29
  Speaker 1: slice for my child? And then they'll make it permanent.
• 1:51:31
  Speaker 1: Brian James.
• 1:51:32
  Speaker 11: That's yes, that's something called the sunset And basically every
• 1:51:35
  Speaker 11: I think every tax reform we've put in place, nobody
• 1:51:38
  Speaker 11: can commit to it for the rest of our lives.
• 1:51:39
  Speaker 3: So everything has a sunset date. And then what that
• 1:51:42
  Speaker 3: does to my financial planning.
• 1:51:43
  Speaker 11: So offer is I have a little flip button that says,
• 1:51:45
  Speaker 11: do we assume the sunsets or we do do we
• 1:51:46
  Speaker 11: assume it's not? So it does introduce questions, but to
• 1:51:50
  Speaker 11: sum it up, I do like the concept, and it
• 1:51:52
  Speaker 11: does force people, Yeah, you're gonna invest in the stock
• 1:51:54
  Speaker 11: market and darn it you're gonna like it because you
• 1:51:56
  Speaker 11: have no other choice. That's going to force people to
• 1:51:58
  Speaker 11: ride it out. It will force people to see the
• 1:52:00
  Speaker 11: ups and downs. It's very important for every investor under
• 1:52:03
  Speaker 11: the sun to ride out a full market cycle way up,
• 1:52:06
  Speaker 11: way down, and then way back up again. That it
• 1:52:08
  Speaker 11: takes probably five years for somebody to truly truly see that.
• 1:52:12
  Speaker 11: This will force people into a situation where they have
• 1:52:14
  Speaker 11: no choice but to stare at it. I don't think
• 1:52:15
  Speaker 11: that's a bad thing.
• 1:52:16
  Speaker 1: Okay, And you pointed out these this money, these funds
• 1:52:20
  Speaker 1: individual owned by these individual children are gonna be placed
• 1:52:23
  Speaker 1: in what broad stark market index funds? Do we get
• 1:52:26
  Speaker 1: the does the public the let's say the parents are guardians,
• 1:52:30
  Speaker 1: Do they have any choices to wear these specific allocations
• 1:52:33
  Speaker 1: are made like we do in our respect to four
• 1:52:35
  Speaker 1: to one case, Brian.
• 1:52:36
  Speaker 11: That's that's what I'm getting at. I don't believe there's
• 1:52:38
  Speaker 11: much option at all now. Granted, you can't set these
• 1:52:40
  Speaker 11: up until this coming July, so we don't know exactly
• 1:52:42
  Speaker 11: how to push them.
• 1:52:43
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 1:52:43
  Speaker 11: The only thing that's out there right now is when
• 1:52:46
  Speaker 11: you do your taxes, you'll notice you have the option
• 1:52:48
  Speaker 11: to reserve a spot, and I'm not exactly sure what
• 1:52:51
  Speaker 11: that means. If you had a baby, then you got
• 1:52:52
  Speaker 11: then you have a spot. So I'm not sure what
• 1:52:54
  Speaker 11: the point of that is, but that's where you'll see
• 1:52:55
  Speaker 11: references to it. And there have been about a half million.
• 1:52:58
  Speaker 3: Reserved so far. People are just starting to do their
• 1:53:01
  Speaker 3: twenty five taxes.
• 1:53:02
  Speaker 1: Great, Well, there's an IRS form forty five forty seven
• 1:53:05
  Speaker 1: where parents right there now can initiate this process if
• 1:53:08
  Speaker 1: there's a portal for it, and they'll let folks who
• 1:53:10
  Speaker 1: well it might be eligible for it seat to doing that.
• 1:53:14
  Speaker 1: And I guess the other component of this is traditional
• 1:53:17
  Speaker 1: five twenty nine plans. Now, you're not obligated to open
• 1:53:20
  Speaker 1: one of those, but don't those offer more of that
• 1:53:22
  Speaker 1: flexibility that you and I were just talking about in
• 1:53:24
  Speaker 1: terms of where the money is invested.
• 1:53:26
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean the big thing here about the Trump
• 1:53:28
  Speaker 11: accounts is the three thousand bucks from the federal government.
• 1:53:30
  Speaker 3: Everything else about it you can do on your own.
• 1:53:32
  Speaker 11: You can take a thousand dollars and throw it into
• 1:53:34
  Speaker 11: mutual fund and sit on it for sixty five years.
• 1:53:36
  Speaker 3: You'll get the same outcome.
• 1:53:38
  Speaker 11: Remember, the Trump accounts will be taxable on the way out,
• 1:53:41
  Speaker 11: so you're not necessarily getting the best possible treatment. A
• 1:53:45
  Speaker 11: matter of fact, I would say, if you're looking to
• 1:53:46
  Speaker 11: put money away, take your Trump account if you've got
• 1:53:49
  Speaker 11: a kid in this date range. But if you're looking
• 1:53:50
  Speaker 11: to put money away, do a five to twenty nine
• 1:53:52
  Speaker 11: plan and learn learn learn about how they are not
• 1:53:54
  Speaker 11: only for college anymore. Those can become rawth IRA contributions.
• 1:53:59
  Speaker 11: That's tax freedom dollar Brian. You put the money in now,
• 1:54:01
  Speaker 11: and you can invest it in broad market indexes just
• 1:54:03
  Speaker 11: like the Trump accounts.
• 1:54:05
  Speaker 3: Let it grow forever.
• 1:54:06
  Speaker 11: If it sits there for fifteen years, you can use
• 1:54:08
  Speaker 11: up to thirty five thousand dollars as future wroth IRA
• 1:54:11
  Speaker 11: contribution surely, which will Yeah, that's a new rule to
• 1:54:13
  Speaker 11: win in place in twenty twenty four, in response to
• 1:54:16
  Speaker 11: the fact that people were saying, I don't want a
• 1:54:18
  Speaker 11: fund a five twenty nine because I have no idea
• 1:54:19
  Speaker 11: if this newborn is going to go to college at ello. Okay, fine,
• 1:54:22
  Speaker 11: let's make it a retirement account so you can basically
• 1:54:24
  Speaker 11: effectively fund a roth Ira from day one of a
• 1:54:27
  Speaker 11: newborn's life, actually technically before certainly, But like you always say,
• 1:54:32
  Speaker 11: it's like investing in a four oh one k if
• 1:54:34
  Speaker 11: you got an employer match.
• 1:54:35
  Speaker 1: Never ever ever walk away from free money. So at
• 1:54:38
  Speaker 1: least do whatever minimum obligation you need to get an
• 1:54:40
  Speaker 1: employer match. And of course five to twenty nine may
• 1:54:43
  Speaker 1: be a better way of investing for your child's education
• 1:54:45
  Speaker 1: given what you just pointed out, which I didn't know
• 1:54:47
  Speaker 1: that flexibility we now have with it. But go ahead,
• 1:54:50
  Speaker 1: take the Trump money, but also separately open a five twenty.
• 1:54:54
  Speaker 11: Nine absolutely and fund your own retirement before you worry
• 1:54:57
  Speaker 11: too much about your kids.
• 1:54:58
  Speaker 3: You're not going to do them any good if you're
• 1:54:59
  Speaker 3: on their cau each when you're ninety five.
• 1:55:01
  Speaker 1: You know what, Brian James, in my personal experience, that
• 1:55:03
  Speaker 1: is solid gold, solid gold recommendation, because that's the way
• 1:55:09
  Speaker 1: my wife and I approached it. You know, we didn't
• 1:55:11
  Speaker 1: start socking away in a separate college education funnel. Though
• 1:55:13
  Speaker 1: they did have five twenty nine, we didn't really contribute
• 1:55:15
  Speaker 1: that much to it. But we took care of our
• 1:55:17
  Speaker 1: own retirement needs, and by the time the kids got
• 1:55:19
  Speaker 1: the college age, we had enough that we can manage
• 1:55:22
  Speaker 1: the college expenses. And I never thought I would ever
• 1:55:25
  Speaker 1: see a day where that was possible, but it does
• 1:55:27
  Speaker 1: really work out that way.
• 1:55:28
  Speaker 3: Compounding us the magic of compounding. Brian Thomas.
• 1:55:31
  Speaker 1: Amen to that, Brian James. One more with Brian James.
• 1:55:33
  Speaker 1: How good is of an idea? Is it to use
• 1:55:35
  Speaker 1: your four oh one k Speaking of which for a
• 1:55:37
  Speaker 1: housing down payment? We'll hear what Brian has to say
• 1:55:40
  Speaker 1: about that. I think I can guess eight twenty five
• 1:55:42
  Speaker 1: right now. I do you have KCD Talk Station.
• 1:55:44
  Speaker 4: Fifty five KRC the simply Money Man it.
• 1:55:47
  Speaker 8: Is station.
• 1:55:50
  Speaker 1: Eight twenty seven. Here if if you have KCD Talk
• 1:55:52
  Speaker 1: Station Brian Thomas, we have Money Monday's Brian James doing
• 1:55:56
  Speaker 1: what we call Money Monday, a few segments of money
• 1:55:58
  Speaker 1: related topics, and well, I guess it was just like
• 1:56:01
  Speaker 1: last week or so. The National Economic Council Director Kevin
• 1:56:03
  Speaker 1: Hassett suggested that, well, we're going to allow people to
• 1:56:07
  Speaker 1: take money out of their four to one case and
• 1:56:09
  Speaker 1: use that for a down payment on a home. Now,
• 1:56:12
  Speaker 1: I understand home prices going through the roof, and of course,
• 1:56:15
  Speaker 1: if you've got to come up with is it still
• 1:56:17
  Speaker 1: twenty percent down Brian to buy a house. It's the
• 1:56:20
  Speaker 1: biggest tough road to hoe to deal with when you
• 1:56:23
  Speaker 1: want to buy a house. Because I remember when we
• 1:56:25
  Speaker 1: bought our first house and we scraped up every little
• 1:56:28
  Speaker 1: dollar we could find and meet that twenty percent down.
• 1:56:30
  Speaker 11: Yeah, and it is still that's the that's not a
• 1:56:33
  Speaker 11: hard bar you got to get over. But if you
• 1:56:34
  Speaker 11: want to avoid mortgage insurance, which basically means paying your
• 1:56:37
  Speaker 11: bank because your bank thinks you're a little riskier if
• 1:56:39
  Speaker 11: you cannot put the twenty percent down, you got to
• 1:56:42
  Speaker 11: buy mortgage insurance, and then you have to refinance usually
• 1:56:45
  Speaker 11: to get out of it. Sometimes you can get out
• 1:56:46
  Speaker 11: of it without that once you hit that point of equity.
• 1:56:49
  Speaker 11: But yeah, that's still the case. And so what we're
• 1:56:52
  Speaker 11: talking about today is the ability to borrow or to
• 1:56:55
  Speaker 11: pull money out of your four to one case still
• 1:56:57
  Speaker 11: be taxable. You're not avoiding taxes, we'll never do that,
• 1:56:59
  Speaker 11: but be avoiding the ten percent penalty. And you'd be
• 1:57:02
  Speaker 11: allowed to do it in the first place to gather
• 1:57:04
  Speaker 11: money to make that down payment. This is something, as
• 1:57:07
  Speaker 11: you mentioned, this was thrown out there as a hey,
• 1:57:09
  Speaker 11: let's think about this, but it does seem to have
• 1:57:11
  Speaker 11: been pretty well shelved here. I don't think I think
• 1:57:14
  Speaker 11: this is going to go quietly into that good night
• 1:57:16
  Speaker 11: because the President just said he doesn't like it. Yeah,
• 1:57:18
  Speaker 11: and part of what he's saying, you know, President Trump
• 1:57:22
  Speaker 11: may simply be reacting to what the market is currently doing. Obviously,
• 1:57:25
  Speaker 11: we're at an all time high and we've been running
• 1:57:27
  Speaker 11: really for three years now with good markets, and he's
• 1:57:30
  Speaker 11: simply saying, well, why would I want to suck a
• 1:57:32
  Speaker 11: bunch of money out of the market. And then that
• 1:57:33
  Speaker 11: could have an impact over time when people pulling money
• 1:57:36
  Speaker 11: out of the capital markets and sticking them into ill
• 1:57:39
  Speaker 11: liquid assets like houses. Good idea, maybe to get the
• 1:57:42
  Speaker 11: job done. But at the same time, all that's gonna
• 1:57:45
  Speaker 11: do is pump up demand. It's not unlike what we
• 1:57:47
  Speaker 11: did with student loans over the past thirty years that
• 1:57:50
  Speaker 11: resulted in higher tuition.
• 1:57:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, in pump up demand is a kind
• 1:57:54
  Speaker 1: of the elphant the room that it wasn't thinking about.
• 1:57:56
  Speaker 1: I would just think about your regular and broader point,
• 1:57:58
  Speaker 1: which is, well, you know what you have lost. Not
• 1:58:01
  Speaker 1: only do you have to pay the taxes as you're
• 1:58:03
  Speaker 1: pulling that out, you've lost that long term return on
• 1:58:08
  Speaker 1: investment that the compounding interest does. I mean, you're taking
• 1:58:10
  Speaker 1: away the point of the four to one k by
• 1:58:12
  Speaker 1: doing that.
• 1:58:13
  Speaker 11: Yeah, that's really a massive sacrifice, and it's owning a
• 1:58:17
  Speaker 11: home is not a bad thing.
• 1:58:18
  Speaker 3: But houses don't.
• 1:58:19
  Speaker 11: Don't believe your you know, the advice you might be
• 1:58:21
  Speaker 11: getting from your older relatives that comes out of the
• 1:58:24
  Speaker 11: fifties and sixties that says a house is the greatest
• 1:58:26
  Speaker 11: investment you can buy. A house is a terrible investment
• 1:58:29
  Speaker 11: if you do the math of what you have to
• 1:58:30
  Speaker 11: pay for a home via the price itself, interest, replacing
• 1:58:34
  Speaker 11: the hot water, heater, property taxes, all that stuff over time,
• 1:58:37
  Speaker 11: houses are an absolutely awful investment that we all kind
• 1:58:39
  Speaker 11: of have to have a solution for because otherwise you're
• 1:58:41
  Speaker 11: paying rent and there for inflation every year. But that's
• 1:58:45
  Speaker 11: not the way to think about it. The way to
• 1:58:46
  Speaker 11: think about it is I need to make sure it
• 1:58:48
  Speaker 11: fits my budget. All of those things I just described
• 1:58:50
  Speaker 11: have to fit the cash flow, including whatever wherever my
• 1:58:55
  Speaker 11: down payment is coming from. That has to not disturb
• 1:58:57
  Speaker 11: my retirement that maybe thirty years off. But that's why again,
• 1:59:00
  Speaker 11: this is why I have a job. Let's figure out
• 1:59:02
  Speaker 11: what can I get away with now so that it
• 1:59:04
  Speaker 11: don't disrupt things thirty years from now. I know what
• 1:59:06
  Speaker 11: I can afford right now, that I can write a
• 1:59:08
  Speaker 11: check for, but can I afford it? Not now but
• 1:59:10
  Speaker 11: thirty years from now. That's the harder question to.
• 1:59:12
  Speaker 1: Answer as a financial planner. And I understand your process.
• 1:59:17
  Speaker 1: You run through computer modeling all the gazillions of different
• 1:59:20
  Speaker 1: scenarios for people as they are putting away money in
• 1:59:23
  Speaker 1: their four oh one k's. If the market goes sideways,
• 1:59:25
  Speaker 1: if it goes ah, it performs this way, that way,
• 1:59:28
  Speaker 1: nine gajillion ways of slicing it. So you give see
• 1:59:31
  Speaker 1: some people. You give people some comfort level as to
• 1:59:33
  Speaker 1: where they are going, where they want to be, and
• 1:59:35
  Speaker 1: are they on the right track. I understand all that.
• 1:59:37
  Speaker 1: One of the things that's always bothered me, and when
• 1:59:39
  Speaker 1: I see when we start talking about a well, a
• 1:59:42
  Speaker 1: devalued currency, the Fiat currency problems generally speaking. And then
• 1:59:46
  Speaker 1: there's that pesky thing you just brought up which raised
• 1:59:48
  Speaker 1: this to my attention, made me want to ask you taxes.
• 1:59:51
  Speaker 1: You're going to pay taxes on your four to one
• 1:59:52
  Speaker 1: K when the money comes out. That's why I think
• 1:59:54
  Speaker 1: roth is probably a better way. But my worry, and
• 1:59:59
  Speaker 1: it remains a word, because I'm not withdrawing any money
• 2:00:01
  Speaker 1: from a four to one K yet is that we're
• 2:00:03
  Speaker 1: gonna have some calamity befall us, you know, not maybe
• 2:00:06
  Speaker 1: not a great depression, but it's gonna be something pretty bad,
• 2:00:08
  Speaker 1: global war, whatever. And somebody's going to start salivating over
• 2:00:13
  Speaker 1: the rate at which they tax the withdrawals from four
• 2:00:15
  Speaker 1: oh one k's and it may turn into some rapacious
• 2:00:18
  Speaker 1: nineteen fifties level of course waited for how much money
• 2:00:22
  Speaker 1: you have, But they're going to go after all this
• 2:00:24
  Speaker 1: money that we've been diligently saving under the promise we
• 2:00:26
  Speaker 1: can take it out. But since the tax rate doesn't
• 2:00:28
  Speaker 1: isn't known fifteen years from now or whatever, it could
• 2:00:31
  Speaker 1: be literally anything.
• 2:00:32
  Speaker 11: Brian Well, I think the fundamentally, I think, and I
• 2:00:35
  Speaker 11: think you're exactly right. The fundamentally, the thing that this
• 2:00:38
  Speaker 11: country has done better than any other country on the
• 2:00:40
  Speaker 11: face of the earth and the history of all time
• 2:00:42
  Speaker 11: is crowdsource economic development.
• 2:00:45
  Speaker 3: We have done absolutely.
• 2:00:46
  Speaker 11: Everything we possibly can to entice people to go find
• 2:00:49
  Speaker 11: every unnailed down dollar they can and invest it in
• 2:00:52
  Speaker 11: some kind of capital venture. We did it with what
• 2:00:54
  Speaker 11: you're referring to is the way we did it by
• 2:00:57
  Speaker 11: enticing people to say, hey, you know, I don't need
• 2:00:59
  Speaker 11: this pension because this bock market will grow faster. So
• 2:01:01
  Speaker 11: pensions all went away over the decades, and now we take,
• 2:01:04
  Speaker 11: you know, little chunks of our paychecks and we invest
• 2:01:06
  Speaker 11: them in other people's businesses. That's what the stock market is.
• 2:01:09
  Speaker 11: And historically that has worked, even inclusive of some of
• 2:01:12
  Speaker 11: those calamities that you mentioned, like twenty and eight in
• 2:01:14
  Speaker 11: twenty twenty two, don't forget that, not that long ago.
• 2:01:17
  Speaker 11: So all of that does still work. That's why we're
• 2:01:20
  Speaker 11: where we are. But as you just mentioned, you're also
• 2:01:22
  Speaker 11: a sitting duck for you know, your four oh one
• 2:01:24
  Speaker 11: k has never been taxed. All they have to do,
• 2:01:26
  Speaker 11: they don't. They're not going to confiscate your money. Nobody's
• 2:01:29
  Speaker 11: going to swoop in and take large chunks of your
• 2:01:31
  Speaker 11: four oh one k. They're just going to bump ordinary
• 2:01:33
  Speaker 11: income tax rates up a little bit at a time,
• 2:01:35
  Speaker 11: and that's what's going to happen, you know, over over
• 2:01:37
  Speaker 11: the decades as we have to deal with our fiscal irresponsibility.
• 2:01:41
  Speaker 11: At some point, you're kind of a sitting duck if
• 2:01:42
  Speaker 11: you only have that pre tax pile of money. My
• 2:01:45
  Speaker 11: personally speaking, the way I'm dealing with this, my wife
• 2:01:47
  Speaker 11: and I are only doing Roth contributions in our four
• 2:01:49
  Speaker 11: o one ks. Now that didn't exist when we first
• 2:01:52
  Speaker 11: started thirty years ago. It does now I got to
• 2:01:54
  Speaker 11: bite the bullet. But I know I'm talking thirty forty
• 2:01:56
  Speaker 11: years of compounding, so I don't care. The math still
• 2:01:58
  Speaker 11: favors it.
• 2:01:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know that the ship has sailed for me.
• 2:02:01
  Speaker 1: First off, the employer doesn't offer the Roth version. And
• 2:02:04
  Speaker 1: second I'm sixty and the idea of me contributing for
• 2:02:07
  Speaker 1: the next twenty thirty years.
• 2:02:08
  Speaker 11: Yeah, sneaking up on conversion time to do that math
• 2:02:11
  Speaker 11: for that that low income window you'll have.
• 2:02:13
  Speaker 1: I am gonna have to talk to somebody about that
• 2:02:14
  Speaker 1: convert real quick, since you only have a minute left.
• 2:02:17
  Speaker 1: What's the conversion thing? How does that work? Sure?
• 2:02:19
  Speaker 11: So what we're talking about there is Roth conversion. So
• 2:02:21
  Speaker 11: if you have that bucket of pre tax dollars, which
• 2:02:23
  Speaker 11: if you started a four oh one K thirty years ago,
• 2:02:25
  Speaker 11: I guarant darantee you do because I do the only choice. Yeah,
• 2:02:28
  Speaker 11: most people do. So what you can do is you
• 2:02:30
  Speaker 11: can convert. You can say yes, IRS, I would like
• 2:02:33
  Speaker 11: to pay you taxes on this. You know, maybe maybe
• 2:02:35
  Speaker 11: it's one hundred thousand dollars and then you're in a
• 2:02:37
  Speaker 11: twenty percent bracket. Remember this would be on top of
• 2:02:39
  Speaker 11: whatever your bracket already is via salary, So maybe you're
• 2:02:42
  Speaker 11: let's call it twenty five percent bracket. Then you would
• 2:02:45
  Speaker 11: be writing a check purposely voluntarily to the irs to
• 2:02:48
  Speaker 11: free up one hundred thousand dollars and keep it invested
• 2:02:51
  Speaker 11: in the market. Then it would grow tax free forever.
• 2:02:52
  Speaker 11: The longer you can let it go, the better. But
• 2:02:54
  Speaker 11: the reason I'm hinting this to you, Brian, is because
• 2:02:56
  Speaker 11: someday you'll retire and it will be you will have
• 2:03:00
  Speaker 11: some years where you don't have salary. Neither of you
• 2:03:02
  Speaker 11: is working, so your lowest bracket you've had in decades,
• 2:03:04
  Speaker 11: and it will be well before age seventy five, which
• 2:03:07
  Speaker 11: is when you will start being forced to pay taxes
• 2:03:10
  Speaker 11: via requirement on distributions. That's the window that I was
• 2:03:13
  Speaker 11: referring to. That's when you want to look to do conversions.
• 2:03:15
  Speaker 11: So what you might be doing is piling up cash
• 2:03:17
  Speaker 11: on the side somewhere with the intent of paying taxes
• 2:03:20
  Speaker 11: when your income is lower than it's been in decades.
• 2:03:23
  Speaker 1: All right, That make actually makes sense to me, and
• 2:03:25
  Speaker 1: I'm an idiot. Brian James, good job, appreciate you, Williwall.
• 2:03:28
  Speaker 1: I have a job, I know, and that's why I
• 2:03:30
  Speaker 1: love having on this show. Brian James, trying to keep
• 2:03:32
  Speaker 1: us on the right path. Brian James. Will do this
• 2:03:33
  Speaker 1: again next Monday. Thank you for showing up every money
• 2:03:36
  Speaker 1: and offering the stage wisdom and looking forward to doing
• 2:03:38
  Speaker 1: it again next week. Have a great week, my friend.
• 2:03:40
  Speaker 3: We will talk to you when it is seventy five
• 2:03:41
  Speaker 3: and sunny next week.
• 2:03:43
  Speaker 1: Maybe a little optimistic, Brian, but at least for going
• 2:03:46
  Speaker 1: to the right direction. Thanks Brother eight thirty five fifty

  Speaker 1: Talk Station. Happy Monday Tomorrow Breitbart Insights Scoop eight o
• 2:03:59
  Speaker 1: five with Bright Bart but every Tuesday unless something gets
• 2:04:02
  Speaker 1: screwed up and Daniel Davis with a deep dive. I
• 2:04:05
  Speaker 1: laughed about that because aw R Hawkins we delayed a
• 2:04:08
  Speaker 1: day since he didn't have his time scheduled right overslapt
• 2:04:12
  Speaker 1: let us, oh and Jack Windsor from the High Press Network.
• 2:04:17
  Speaker 1: I missed his slot on Friday. Apologies from Jack Windsor,
• 2:04:21
  Speaker 1: he overslapt it does happen anyhow, Joe Strecker just threw
• 2:04:26
  Speaker 1: me this one. Here's another reason why we need to
• 2:04:29
  Speaker 1: mind our p's and q's when it comes to handing
• 2:04:30
  Speaker 1: out money in the name of doing things altruistic. I
• 2:04:36
  Speaker 1: was really appreciative of the fact that we now have
• 2:04:38
  Speaker 1: work requirements for SNAP benefits, and the point being, you know,
• 2:04:40
  Speaker 1: why would you want healthy, able bodied, work able bodied
• 2:04:43
  Speaker 1: people who are capable of working, not to at least
• 2:04:46
  Speaker 1: trying to participate in the work market. Get some job training,
• 2:04:49
  Speaker 1: work twenty hours a week. It's not that much of
• 2:04:51
  Speaker 1: an ask, and you can get your SNAP benefits. The
• 2:04:55
  Speaker 1: program is supposed to be temporary, that's the point of it,
• 2:05:00
  Speaker 1: not permanent. Just one program, and then we can pivot
• 2:05:05
  Speaker 1: over to Minneapolis and the leering centers, and we can
• 2:05:07
  Speaker 1: piny over to literally every program out there is just
• 2:05:11
  Speaker 1: not monitored. And some people are of the mind that
• 2:05:15
  Speaker 1: that money never was supposed to go to an organization
• 2:05:18
  Speaker 1: it was actually going to do some societal good. It
• 2:05:20
  Speaker 1: was done to line the pockets of well connected individuals. Huh,
• 2:05:24
  Speaker 1: you think that could be something that really is out there?
• 2:05:27
  Speaker 1: Go to Los Angeles. Thanks Joe Strekker for pointing this
• 2:05:29
  Speaker 1: one out to me. CEO of a Los Angeles homeless
• 2:05:32
  Speaker 1: service now facing federal and state fraud charges. They prosecuted
• 2:05:37
  Speaker 1: to say he was living the lap of luxury, taking
• 2:05:41
  Speaker 1: great vacations, buying designer clothes, cars with twenty three million
• 2:05:48
  Speaker 1: dollars in public money that was meant to keep people
• 2:05:51
  Speaker 1: off the streets. We should give him an award this morning.
• 2:05:54
  Speaker 1: Joe Alexander Suffer is the guy forty two years old,
• 2:05:57
  Speaker 1: got arrested this past Friday at his ready seven million
• 2:06:01
  Speaker 1: dollar home that investigators claimed he could afford bia because
• 2:06:06
  Speaker 1: he was using money from this nonprofit Abundant Blessings. What
• 2:06:11
  Speaker 1: a great name. We're just here to help the homeless.
• 2:06:16
  Speaker 1: They contracted with Los Angeles Homeless Service Authority. Another layer
• 2:06:20
  Speaker 1: in helping the homeless that's out there. I imagine the
• 2:06:23
  Speaker 1: Los Angeles Homeless Service Authority employs a whole lot of people,
• 2:06:26
  Speaker 1: but they couldn't do the work themselves, so they needed
• 2:06:28
  Speaker 1: to hire this guy and Abundant Blessings to do the
• 2:06:32
  Speaker 1: work out of the front lines to solve the homeless problem. Anyway,
• 2:06:38
  Speaker 1: this money, this tax payer money, I might emphasize again,
• 2:06:40
  Speaker 1: is supposed to find shelter and provide three meals a
• 2:06:43
  Speaker 1: day for more than six hundred homeless residents. Rather than
• 2:06:46
  Speaker 1: do that, according to prosecutors, he bought one hundred and
• 2:06:48
  Speaker 1: twenty five thousand dollars range rover an Ermey's jacket valued
• 2:06:54
  Speaker 1: at two thousand, four hundred and fifty bucks. Just tracker,
• 2:07:00
  Speaker 1: if you had four million dollars in the bank, would
• 2:07:02
  Speaker 1: you spend two four hundred and fifty bucks on a jacket?
• 2:07:07
  Speaker 1: You'll get too, I know better than that. Functionally no
• 2:07:13
  Speaker 1: different than a forty dollars jacket anyway. Also took a vacation.
• 2:07:18
  Speaker 1: He bought a vacation home in Greece and a trip
• 2:07:21
  Speaker 1: to Hawaii, staying at the four season hotel. According district attorney,
• 2:07:28
  Speaker 1: he was living the high life while the people suffering
• 2:07:30
  Speaker 1: the homeless lived on the streets with no shelter and
• 2:07:33
  Speaker 1: no food. Could get up to twenty years in prison
• 2:07:36
  Speaker 1: if he's sentenced if he's convicted. He falsified invoices, claimed
• 2:07:41
  Speaker 1: he was serving fresh meals running out rooms while homeless
• 2:07:43
  Speaker 1: people were well fed canned beans and bulk packs of
• 2:07:46
  Speaker 1: microwavable ramen noodles. Ramen noodles come in microwave for him, now,
• 2:07:54
  Speaker 1: oh I guess you could put him in some like
• 2:07:56
  Speaker 1: a cup of water and boil them in the microwave. Okay,
• 2:07:59
  Speaker 1: I'm old school, Joe. I make my ramen, which is
• 2:08:01
  Speaker 1: very rarely because they're so filled with carbs. I use it.
• 2:08:05
  Speaker 1: I just do them on the stove. Anyway, the point being,
• 2:08:08
  Speaker 1: here we go yet again, and I'm just scratching the
• 2:08:11
  Speaker 1: service of the reporting on this, all the shenanigans this
• 2:08:14
  Speaker 1: chucklehead was involved with. But yeah, are you bleeding hard enough?
• 2:08:20
  Speaker 1: Is your heart bleeding hard enough? Oh my god, We've
• 2:08:22
  Speaker 1: got to do this. We've got to fund this. Okay,
• 2:08:24
  Speaker 1: Conceptually speaking, I have no problem with doing something, but
• 2:08:27
  Speaker 1: you got to mind the dollars. Some form of accountability
• 2:08:31
  Speaker 1: has to be or you end up with leering centers
• 2:08:34
  Speaker 1: and billions and billions stolen from you. Jay, Welcome to
• 2:08:40
  Speaker 1: the program. Happy Monday to you, my friend. Good to
• 2:08:42
  Speaker 1: hear from you.
• 2:08:44
  Speaker 12: Hey, good morning, Brian. Hey, I'm going to be the
• 2:08:46
  Speaker 12: contradictory voice on these Trump funds. In clear terms, what
• 2:08:51
  Speaker 12: I heard is going to happen is that we are
• 2:08:54
  Speaker 12: going to take money from certain Americans because you know
• 2:08:58
  Speaker 12: it when it says Trump's I give.
• 2:08:59
  Speaker 1: Yeahyeh yeah, yah, yah, yeahyeah, I know exactly where you're
• 2:09:01
  Speaker 1: going to go, because that's been festering in the back
• 2:09:03
  Speaker 1: of my mind since they came up. I just maybe,
• 2:09:06
  Speaker 1: I guess the only time I'm going to here justify
• 2:09:08
  Speaker 1: this whole concept of basically giving eight thousand dollars every
• 2:09:11
  Speaker 1: kid born in that window a period of time is
• 2:09:13
  Speaker 1: that they will be smarter and better off for it
• 2:09:15
  Speaker 1: down the road, a demonstrable benefit to that particular child,
• 2:09:19
  Speaker 1: and something that they can't touch until they're eighteen, keeping
• 2:09:22
  Speaker 1: people's sticky fingers out of it for you know, maybe
• 2:09:24
  Speaker 1: going out and buying drugs or whatever with the money.
• 2:09:26
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I know where you're going, and I struggle
• 2:09:28
  Speaker 1: with it, most notably given the little l libertarian political
• 2:09:31
  Speaker 1: philosophy I have is to not do stuff like that.
• 2:09:35
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 2:09:36
  Speaker 12: I mean, I just heard Brian James use the word
• 2:09:38
  Speaker 12: force that did. The good thing about this he said
• 2:09:41
  Speaker 12: was it's going to force people to go through the
• 2:09:44
  Speaker 12: highs and lows. It's going to force them. I guess
• 2:09:46
  Speaker 12: the federal government's going to should pick the stock so
• 2:09:48
  Speaker 12: the parents or the taxpayers don't even get to do that. Yeah,
• 2:09:51
  Speaker 12: I wonder how Nancy Pelosi will have her hands in
• 2:09:54
  Speaker 12: this selection and I bet she'll be buying, and everybody
• 2:09:58
  Speaker 12: else down in DC will get it heads up of
• 2:10:01
  Speaker 12: who's going to get into that portfolio. And we're going
• 2:10:05
  Speaker 12: to see again one hundred and seventy five thousand dollars
• 2:10:07
  Speaker 12: salaries turn into seven hundred and fifty million because they're
• 2:10:10
  Speaker 12: going to get the insider trading and we and all
• 2:10:13
  Speaker 12: we have to do is shut up and pay for it.
• 2:10:16
  Speaker 12: Redistribution of well. Fat cats in BC are going to
• 2:10:19
  Speaker 12: choose whether this is going to go, and then there's
• 2:10:21
  Speaker 12: a select number of it's only open for two years,
• 2:10:24
  Speaker 12: so the government's going to pick the winners and losers
• 2:10:26
  Speaker 12: of who the beneficiary are is and who's going to
• 2:10:29
  Speaker 12: get the stock buy right.
• 2:10:31
  Speaker 1: I just you can see it coming a mile away.
• 2:10:33
  Speaker 1: Go ahead and place your betting site prediction that people
• 2:10:36
  Speaker 1: will be marching in the streets when these funds are
• 2:10:38
  Speaker 1: no longer available. Because you weren't born, but within counter
• 2:10:41
  Speaker 1: you're twenty twenty eight.
• 2:10:43
  Speaker 12: It's like I said, Mark, what about the young couple
• 2:10:45
  Speaker 12: that can't have kids. They're trying, but they can't have it,
• 2:10:48
  Speaker 12: and what do they get told you missed the window?
• 2:10:52
  Speaker 12: I see lawsuits all over this thing.
• 2:10:54
  Speaker 1: No, I don't know about lawsuits. But see, you're back
• 2:10:56
  Speaker 1: in my wheelhouse. This is always why I hate the
• 2:10:58
  Speaker 1: tax code being used them innipulate people's behavior. Do you
• 2:11:01
  Speaker 1: think my wife and I actually sat down and made
• 2:11:03
  Speaker 1: our child rearing decisions based upon a tax credit that
• 2:11:06
  Speaker 1: we were going to get. Yeah? Right, as if so,
• 2:11:09
  Speaker 1: why do we give that?
• 2:11:10
  Speaker 7: Exactly?
• 2:11:11
  Speaker 1: Why do we? Why is there any write offs? Why
• 2:11:14
  Speaker 1: is there anything? Why not you just a flat you
• 2:11:16
  Speaker 1: pay fifteen percent or whatever figure they come up with.
• 2:11:19
  Speaker 1: No ride offs, no manipulations, no tax credits for carbon capture, nothing, zero,
• 2:11:25
  Speaker 1: leave it.
• 2:11:26
  Speaker 12: See, I agree one hundred percent, man, one hundred percent.
• 2:11:29
  Speaker 12: And if they wanted to do something, and then you
• 2:11:33
  Speaker 12: know what.
• 2:11:33
  Speaker 7: You're You're right.
• 2:11:34
  Speaker 12: I was going to say, if they wanted to do something,
• 2:11:36
  Speaker 12: they can give me some sort of tax shelter on
• 2:11:39
  Speaker 12: paying tuition. But even then, if you did that, what
• 2:11:42
  Speaker 12: are the college is going to do? They're going to
• 2:11:43
  Speaker 12: raise their prices and take it all, right, of course,
• 2:11:46
  Speaker 12: So so so this is the government, This is this
• 2:11:48
  Speaker 12: is Trump sounded very much like a liberal Democrat. Damn
• 2:11:51
  Speaker 12: near communists. What about decisions?
• 2:11:54
  Speaker 1: What about mandating a ten percent captor credit card companies.
• 2:11:57
  Speaker 1: What about prohibiting investments like black Rock from buying private homes?
• 2:12:02
  Speaker 1: These are very populous, democrat sounding proposals from Donald Trump.
• 2:12:06
  Speaker 12: Agreed, Yeah, I agree. He said recently that a CEO
• 2:12:09
  Speaker 12: of defense company should be capped out at five million bucks.
• 2:12:12
  Speaker 12: Now when he was the CEO of a of a
• 2:12:14
  Speaker 12: property development, would he have liked that idea? Something came
• 2:12:17
  Speaker 12: out of DC and capped his salary as an entrepreneur
• 2:12:20
  Speaker 12: and a developer.
• 2:12:22
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, don, Don's always been a moving target
• 2:12:25
  Speaker 1: when it comes to matters political, whatever's in the best
• 2:12:27
  Speaker 1: interest of Donald Trump. That is the political breeze that
• 2:12:30
  Speaker 1: he's going to capture and move with. This should be
• 2:12:32
  Speaker 1: no surprise to anybody. But you know, the other thing
• 2:12:35
  Speaker 1: he waivered on the other day, was kind of surprised.
• 2:12:37
  Speaker 1: In the aftermath of that terrible situation Minneapolis where that
• 2:12:40
  Speaker 1: guy got shot like eight times, he was talking about
• 2:12:44
  Speaker 1: no one should be carrying guns. You shouldn't have guns,
• 2:12:47
  Speaker 1: you shouldn't. I mean, I was like, wait a minute,
• 2:12:49
  Speaker 1: who's saying this is this is this Chuck Schumber, Fancy Pelosi?
• 2:12:54
  Speaker 1: I mean right, he didn't brandw shit. He didn't wave
• 2:12:56
  Speaker 1: it around, he didn't commit a crime with it. He's dead.
• 2:12:59
  Speaker 7: Now.
• 2:12:59
  Speaker 1: We can all argue about whether or not it was
• 2:13:00
  Speaker 1: appropriate for him to be dead. But I'm a Second
• 2:13:03
  Speaker 1: Amendment defender. I always have been, and I have argued
• 2:13:06
  Speaker 1: since well forever that even leftists are entitled under the
• 2:13:10
  Speaker 1: Second Amendment to keep in bare arms. It's for your
• 2:13:12
  Speaker 1: impersonal protection. You know what's wrong with that? Appreciate it?
• 2:13:16
  Speaker 12: Yeah, and other than you you you bet.
• 2:13:19
  Speaker 1: Oh, You're gonna make a point real quick before you go. Yeah,
• 2:13:21
  Speaker 1: he left five two three Talk ten, five fifty one
• 2:13:26
  Speaker 1: Deep Talk Station about eight fifty one to fifty five
• 2:13:31
  Speaker 1: krs the Talk station right Bart Inside Scoop and Daniel
• 2:13:35
  Speaker 1: Davis Deep Dive Tomorrow. Always enjoy those segments. I enjoy
• 2:13:39
  Speaker 1: all the segments we have regularly schedule in the fifty
• 2:13:40
  Speaker 1: five KRCY Morning Show. And always give credit Joe just Tracker,
• 2:13:43
  Speaker 1: executive producer, for aligning things up on the show, because
• 2:13:45
  Speaker 1: without Joe, the show does not go. Couple of things. Oh,
• 2:13:52
  Speaker 1: since I was talking about the second moment of the
• 2:13:54
  Speaker 1: left wingers big big, big up to up tick with
• 2:14:00
  Speaker 1: left wingers going out and getting training and buying firearms
• 2:14:03
  Speaker 1: h article appearing in The Hill, columnist named Robbie so
• 2:14:11
  Speaker 1: noting that progress his favorite all sorts of restrictions on
• 2:14:13
  Speaker 1: gun ownership. Yet now they are championing constitutional rights, this
• 2:14:17
  Speaker 1: after that Alex Pretti's death, and you know, we've existed
• 2:14:23
  Speaker 1: in a world where that kind of death can occur.
• 2:14:25
  Speaker 1: Have you ever read the news on a daily basis,
• 2:14:27
  Speaker 1: Like in any given neighborhood someone is gunned down. Seems
• 2:14:31
  Speaker 1: to me to be a pretty good poster child, literally
• 2:14:34
  Speaker 1: anywhere in any city for buying a great equalizer, you know,
• 2:14:41
  Speaker 1: and cops for minutes away and seconds count. Right, It's
• 2:14:45
  Speaker 1: always served as a great justification for me being a
• 2:14:47
  Speaker 1: firearms owner. But then again, I like going out and
• 2:14:48
  Speaker 1: shooting at the range. Call it a hobby. But in
• 2:14:54
  Speaker 1: the article reporting this, former Minnesota Democratic Representative Dean Phillips said, yeah, well,
• 2:14:58
  Speaker 1: you know what. For years I quietly mocked Second Amendment
• 2:15:01
  Speaker 1: defenders who argued arms were necessary to defend American rights
• 2:15:03
  Speaker 1: against a tyrannical government. Today, I apologize because I've seen
• 2:15:07
  Speaker 1: it with my own eyes. Now you and I might,
• 2:15:10
  Speaker 1: perhaps depending on our motivations and our position relative to ice,
• 2:15:13
  Speaker 1: consider them to be well, his argument ill conceived because
• 2:15:16
  Speaker 1: he thinks Ice is the end of America or a
• 2:15:19
  Speaker 1: tyrannical government at work. Going back to the article, I
• 2:15:23
  Speaker 1: started the morning show with Ice was able to rest
• 2:15:25
  Speaker 1: six hundred and fifty illegal aliments aliens over a two
• 2:15:27
  Speaker 1: week period in West Virginia. You didn't hear a word
• 2:15:30
  Speaker 1: about that. Did you remember all the articles in the
• 2:15:34
  Speaker 1: video we got from the different cities in West Virginia Charleston, Martinsburg, Beckley, Moorfield, Morgantown,
• 2:15:40
  Speaker 1: and Huntington, of all the people taking into the street
• 2:15:41
  Speaker 1: and protesting and throwing bottles and running into ICE agents
• 2:15:44
  Speaker 1: and stuff Joe all over. Yeah, I was everywhere. You
• 2:15:47
  Speaker 1: couldn't escape it wrong. See when ICE works with local
• 2:15:51
  Speaker 1: law enforcement and state law enforcement, all of which got
• 2:15:54
  Speaker 1: credit for the six hundred and fifty criminals now no
• 2:15:57
  Speaker 1: longer living in West Virginia and putting smiles on the
• 2:15:59
  Speaker 1: West Virginia in faces no protests. So you know, to
• 2:16:06
  Speaker 1: Democratic Representative Dean Phillips apologizing because now he's seeing a
• 2:16:09
  Speaker 1: tyrannical government in his own eyes, well, you know what,
• 2:16:13
  Speaker 1: at least you woke up. There's something out there called
• 2:16:21
  Speaker 1: the Liberal gun Club according to MPR reporting, it's jumped
• 2:16:29
  Speaker 1: from twenty seven hundred members to forty five hundred members
• 2:16:31
  Speaker 1: since just November. Chicago study found gun ownership among Democrats
• 2:16:37
  Speaker 1: rose seven points between twenty ten and twenty twenty two,
• 2:16:39
  Speaker 1: and I imagine it's gone up a couple more points
• 2:16:41
  Speaker 1: since twenty twenty two. The according see who gets credit
