• 1:10
  Speaker 3: be here also Michael Wilson from Patriot Talk nine twenty
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: going to weigh in on James Tall Rico. Oh Tall Rico,
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: I told you know what I Dylan. You know, I
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: don't like to do this, but you know, because it
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: comes across as braggadocius and I don't want to be
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: a braggadocious kind of a guy's but I told you so.
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: You know, I try not to use that phrase too much,
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: but I told you folks that James tall Errico was
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: going to have a problem with Black Texas voters because
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: of the religion thing. Now, most most Black Americans, while
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: they may vote Democrat and they may embrace some liberal policies,
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: when it comes to their religion, when it comes to
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: their church and all might du they're very conservative. I
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: mean very conservative. And when you've got some sort of
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: a limp wristed white guy going out there and saying
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: Jesus supported abortion, oh uh uh that uh uh, homie,
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: don't play that game in the black church. I'm just
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: telling you so, and I did tell you and so
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: now James tall Rico has a huge problem with black voters.
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: And the media is not going to tell you this.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: The media is going to say it's all sorts of
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: other issues. But ladies and gentlemen, hear me on this.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: He's got a problem with the Black church in the
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: Great State of Texas because they don't like this whole
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: thing about Jesus was non binary. No uh uh uh
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: they're not going down that road. So anyway, we'll talk
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: to Michael Wilson about that and in studio. The National
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: Republican Congressional Committee has named Tennessee's ninth congressional district races
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: one of the big national races. They believe this is
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: going to be a pickup for the Republicans in the fall.
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: Jeremy Thompson one of the four candidates running on the
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: Republican side of the ticket there for the nomination. He's
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: going to be joining us and you'll enjoy that conversation.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: We start though, in the Great State of Georgia. There
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: is a crazy, crazy controversy going on down there involving
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: a restaurant called Toast on Linux. Now let me give
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: you some background before we jump into this. You've got
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: a pretty heated race for governor there. Rick Jackson is
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: the Republican nominee. He's a guy and his story is
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: really fascinating. He is a multi millionaire many many times over,
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: and he grew up in abject poverty. As a matter
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: of fact, he grew up in the housing projects of Atlanta.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: So this guy knows what it's like to grow up
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: and live in extreme poverty. Overcoming those obstacles that were
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: in his life early on from a broken home, bounced
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: around and he became a very successful businessman, and now
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: he is the Republican nominee for governor. So anyway, he's
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: stopped by this black owned restaurant called Toast on Lenox
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: and had a chance to meet the owner. The owner
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: is I don't even know the owner's politics, but they
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: haven't endorsed Rick Jackson. She just happened to be the
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: owner of the restaurant and Rick Jackson came in for
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: a visit and they took a photograph together, and the
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: owner posted on her social media as you would any
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: person of note who would come into your restaurant that's
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: happened to be a couple of times in the Memphis area.
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: That doesn't necessarily mean I support well, I guess it
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: doesn't my case because I'm eating food there, so therefore
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: I would endorse the restaurant. But in this particular case,
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: the owner's not endorsing anything. She just was grateful to
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: have a prominent person coming into her establishment. And so anyway,
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: Democrats got wind of this and they're literally trying to
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: destroy this woman's business because she is a black woman
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: and because she was kind and hospitable to a white
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: Republican gubernatorial candidate. It's beyond shocking the way that all
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: of this is going down, and it's created a lot
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: of controversy across the entire state of Georgia. This is
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: going to be an ugly race. I am concerned, very
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: concerned that Keisha Lance Bottoms, who is the Democrat nominee,
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: the former mayor of Atlanta, very concerned that she gets
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: anywhere near the governor's office. They're in Atlanta. So now
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: team Jackson, Rick Jackson's crew, they've put out statements about
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: all of this. And and by the way, Keisha Lance
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: Bottoms was asked about this as as well, and she
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: instead of saying, hey, look, we should not be boycotting
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: any businesses, she actually doubled down and she actually she
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: actually said that, hey, look, actions have consequences. So in
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: a in a sort of roundabout way, she's actually suggesting
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: that people boycott this business because this black o business
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: welcomed a white guy. This is insanity, just insanity. So anyway,
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: it turns out there's there's a little bit more to
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: the story, and thank goodness for the Jackson campaign because
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: they're out there and they're helping to fill in the
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: puzzle pieces here by this cancel culture mob that's out
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: there trying to shut down the business only because they
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: welcomed a white guy in. And it turns out, it
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: turns out that Keisha Lance Bottoms when she was mayor
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: are you ready for this, nearly one hundred Atlanta restaurant
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: locations were shut down because of her lockdowns. She ordered
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: the restaurants to close and as a result of that,
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: hundreds and hundreds of people lost their jobs. Business owners
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: were forced to find other ways to make ends meet
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: because of the policies of this radical mayor. During the
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: China virus pandemic, I mean, what a disgusting thing. Now
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: I want to read to you and again bottom saying
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: that anybody and this is the warning, and she put
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: on a warning to every single business in Georgia. Anybody
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: who welcomes Rick Jackson has made a calculator decision based
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: on the benefits and the risk of doing that. She's
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: making it very clear that she will pour gasoline on
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: the fire when it comes to boycotting and canceling Georgia's
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: small businesses simply because of political reasons. And in this case,
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: it really wasn't even about politics. It was just a
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: black owned business owner welcomed to a white guy in and
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: got a picture with him. Oh, I want to share that.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: This is interesting. So he grew up Are you ready
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: for this? Rick Jackson? Rick Jackson grew up in techwood
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: homes and a few folks in the Atlanta area or
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: in Georgia. You know, that was a very rough housing project.
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: He had seven stepfathers, seven stepfathers, spent his childhood in
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: five foster homes. And now this guy is living the
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: American dream. But I'm telling you this is this is
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: something else that you would have. You would have these
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: democrats out there and look, we're watching this happen. It's
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: really a cancel culture environment. Where in Memphis, Tennessee, you
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: had the owner of what the the the Italian pizza joint, Tambouli's,
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: and the owners said, oh, yeah, we're not serving we're
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: not serving National Guard troops in are you cannot eat
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: here if you're in law enforcement? I mean, how is
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: that going over, ladies? I mean, I will tell you
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: that restaurant got thousands and thousands of emails and telephone
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: calls so much so they had to shut down their
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: phone systems. Dylan, you know who they're blaming for that,
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: by the way, the rest or. You know who they're
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: blaming for all of the controversy. Yours truly well. And
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: to that, I say, you're welcome America exactly. You know what,
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: We didn't tell anybody to boycott. We're just saying here's
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: what they did. Shame on them. So anyway, ladies and gentlemen,
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: this is not going over well in Georgia. As a
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: matter of fact, here's one young lady criticizing Keisha Land's
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: bottoms that cut sixteen plays.
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: She's telling every black business owner Georgia and every minority
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: owned business in the state that if you speak to
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: someone who is not approved of in the cults, then
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: she's not going to stand up for you. She will
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: let the council mob do its work.
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: She will fan the.
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: Flames instead of fighting fire.
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: That's what she just said she do.
• 10:28
  Speaker 7: That is not a governor, y'all.
• 10:29
  Speaker 8: That is a gatekeeper.
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: A true leader would have set up and said, my
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: opponent has every right to speak to every business, just
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: like I have every right to speak to every business owner.
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: I am allowed to be in spaces where I'm so
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: called not welcome, just like he is allowed to be
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: in any spaces that are where he's so called not welcome,
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: because I'm supposed to be. I'm finding to be the
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: governor of Georgia, not the governor of black people, not
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: the governor of Democrats, not the governor of liberals, not
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: the governor of women.
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I like this lady, and she's absolutely right. Unbelievable
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: by the way Governor Brian Kemp is weighing in on this,
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: the governor of Georgia. Small businesses, remember back in twenty
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: twenty when Mayor Bottoms wanted to keep them closed or
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: even worse, let them get burned down. That was during
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: the BLM riots. Maybe that's why so many are looking
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: to support Rick Jackson this fall. Attorney General Chris Carr
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: says keyshut Land's Bottoms did not hesitate to shut down
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: Atlanta businesses during COVID. Now she's siding with those calling
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: to boycott a business that dared to let her political
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: opponent walk in the door. We cannot allow her to
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: govern again. And they're all, look, they're absolutely right about
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: all of this. So anyway, curious to hear from you
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: folks out there about this insane story. And the one
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: the person I feel sorry for is the owner of
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: the business Toast on Lenox and the you know, I
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: don't know if they're Republican or differ I just don't know.
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: But the fact is that she was kind hearted and
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: she did what any business owner did. She welcomed in
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: a customer, and apparently that's against the law. Now in
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: the state of Georgia, nine oh one two six zero five,
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: nine two six is our telephone number. That's nine oh
• 12:16

  Speaker 3: nine two six. This is the Todd Starn Show.
• 13:12
  Speaker 9: Every generation must decide whether it will recognize deceit before
• 13:17
  Speaker 9: it becomes normal. This weekend, Salem News Channels America two
• 13:22
  Speaker 9: fifty film series presents The Fall of Deceit, a sobering
• 13:26
  Speaker 9: documentary on government overreach, faith under pressure, and the cost
• 13:31
  Speaker 9: of abandoning truth. Launch Saturday and Sunday at seven pm
• 13:35
  Speaker 9: Eastern on Salem News Channel.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: An Atlanta business faces backlash from some critics after a
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: social media post showed one of the owners with Republican
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: gubernatorial candidate Rick Jackson that went viral.
• 14:01
  Speaker 6: Well.
• 14:01
  Speaker 10: That picture got taken last week and has sparked fierce
• 14:04
  Speaker 10: online debate from both sides.
• 14:06
  Speaker 8: Fox's anti mapp.
• 14:07
  Speaker 10: Is live in Atlanta with the details Annie, what are
• 14:10
  Speaker 10: you learning?
• 14:12
  Speaker 11: Yeah, we're talking about toast on Linux. It's a black
• 14:15
  Speaker 11: owned brush spot with locations in both Midtown and Buckhead.
• 14:19
  Speaker 11: Since that picture was posted, some of social media are
• 14:23
  Speaker 11: encouraging others not to go. Democrat Kushlan's Bottoms, who's running
• 14:28
  Speaker 11: for governor against Jackson, didn't stay quiet. She went on
• 14:31
  Speaker 11: social media to warn other black businesses from taking the
• 14:35
  Speaker 11: same actions. Jackson's off has responded, accusing Bottoms of wanting
• 14:40
  Speaker 11: to cancel small businesses based on who they let through
• 14:44
  Speaker 11: the door.
• 14:45
  Speaker 8: I just thought it was kind of tacking to think
• 14:46
  Speaker 8: you're going to counsel someone who worked so hard for
• 14:48
  Speaker 8: their business just because she allows someone to come in
• 14:51
  Speaker 8: their business.
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I completely agree with that, and it's good to
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: see folks pushing back and we'll see how all this
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: plays out. But one of the things that I appreciate
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: about Rick Jackson is that he is going into those
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: communities that normally Republicans do not go into. And I'm
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: talking about minority communities, whether they be black or Hispanic.
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: And if we are really going to make an impact,
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: if we are really going to change the direction of
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: this country, then we're going to have to take that
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: message into these communities. But we're also going to have
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: to make sure that it's not you know, that it's
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: authentic that it's not pandering. And that's a big problem
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: the Republicans have had for a very long time, is
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: this pandering. So it's got to be authentic. That's what it's.
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: That's that's what I'm talking about here. Nine oh one
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: two six zero five nine two six is our telephone number.
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: Welcome back to the Todd Stearns Radio Show. Following some
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: other big stories and we're going to get to those
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: a little bit later on, including this controversy over over
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: Van Jones from CNN, who is you know, he's sort
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: of like the darling of the conservative cable channels. They
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: love this guy, and it's sort of like, you know,
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: when I was at Fox News, they used to have
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: Al Sharpton on all the time. And one of the
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: things that really bothered me was that, and I just
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: this was my this is just my personal opinion here,
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: but you know, people like Al Sharpton are very bad people,
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: and yet you would have some of the major host
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: at Fox News Channel, they'd palor around with Al Sharpton.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: They donate to Al Sharpton's far left charities, They would
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: give him airtime on their programs to promote his whatever
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: he's doing out there, and it just seems to me
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: it's really a double standard, and it tells me that
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: you are not authentic. So anyway, they treat Van Jones
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: the same way, and Van Jones is trying to You
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: got to watch people like Van Jones, and the reason
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: why is that he's he is a likable person. But
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: the reality is he's a far leftist. And yesterday one
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: of the Fox News hosts had to actually apologize because
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: of what she said about Van Jones. This is Rachel
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: Campos Duffy, her husband is in the administration. A cut
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: fifteen plays real really moderates.
• 17:28
  Speaker 10: These are the same people who partnered with the union,
• 17:30
  Speaker 10: with the teachers unions and put this radical agenda into
• 17:33
  Speaker 10: our school system, into our curriculum. And now they're saying,
• 17:36
  Speaker 10: why do we have all these young radicals. They all
• 17:38
  Speaker 10: know they're all radicals. The difference is the so called
• 17:42
  Speaker 10: moderates and they're not. Van Jones is a self proclaimed communist.
• 17:45
  Speaker 10: I mean he's not a moderate. What he is is
• 17:47
  Speaker 10: a power seeking person and he likes the position of
• 17:51
  Speaker 10: power and money that he has within the current Democrat
• 17:54
  Speaker 10: establishment and part of that is hiding who you know,
• 17:57
  Speaker 10: hiding the agenda, pretending like you're more or moderate, and
• 18:01
  Speaker 10: these young people are saying, no, we want to be
• 18:03
  Speaker 10: out and proud.
• 18:04
  Speaker 11: What's wrong?
• 18:04
  Speaker 10: You told us in school that we should be you know,
• 18:06
  Speaker 10: that socialism was great. You never told us how many
• 18:09
  Speaker 10: people it killed. You told us it was awesome, and
• 18:11
  Speaker 10: that capitalism was patriarchal and terrible and racist. And now
• 18:14
  Speaker 10: they're actually acting out on it. And the people in
• 18:17
  Speaker 10: the party are like, wait, wait, you're not supposed to
• 18:18
  Speaker 10: say to any of these things out loud. We're just
• 18:21
  Speaker 10: supposed to get into power, you know. So this is
• 18:24
  Speaker 10: this very interesting situation that they're in. They can't control
• 18:27
  Speaker 10: the young people, and they don't they don't want to
• 18:30
  Speaker 10: own them, but they created them.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: So look and I'll explain this coming up after the break.
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: A few commercial breaks later, Rachel Campos Stuffy was forced
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: to apologize recalling Van Jones a self proclaimed communist when
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: in fact he was and I have the evidence. I
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: will share that with you coming up after the break.
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: are number. That's nine oh one two six zero five
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: nine two six. This is the Todds starn Show. All right,
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: welcome back to everybody. This is the time Startings radio show.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: So I want to get back to this Van Jones story.
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: So Rachel campost Duffy goes out there on national television
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: on Fox and says that Van Jones is a self
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: proclaimed communist, and all you know what breaks loose. I'm
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: telling you that your conservative cable news channels are just
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: not as conservative as they used to be. And apparently
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: Van Jones made some calls. He is very close to
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: some of the primetime hosts, and in a matter of minutes,
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: Rachel campost Duffy was forced to walk it all back.
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: Now here's the here's the reality of the story. Van
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: Jones will in fact a communist for about ten years
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: of his life. Now, back in the nineteen nineties, he
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: did an interview with a publication called The East Bay Express.
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: They did a profile on Van Jones and he expressed
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: some very radical ideas. He said, quote, I was a
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: rowdy nationalist. He was talking about how he became. This
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: was during the Rodney King verdict. He said, I was
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: a rowdy nationalist on April twenty eighth, and by August
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: I was a communist. During that period, Van Jones helped
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: found an activist organization called Standing Together to organize a
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: revolutionary movement. According to the group's documents, members studied Marxist
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: political theory, including imperialism and revolution. Jones told the newspaper
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: that he spent roughly a decade trying to be a
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: revolutionary after meeting a radical act to this while jail
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: during protest. Now, Van Jones says that he later changed
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: his views in life, and okay, but the reality is
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: that for ten years of his adult life he was
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: a radical leftist. He was a communist. So I'm not
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: sure why Rachel Campos stuff he had to apologize, because
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: let me ask you this, do you think that somebody
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: in their adult life for ten years a radical communist?
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: Do you think they really change or do you think that,
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: like a chameleon, they change their colors so they can
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: get a bigger paycheck or they can find themselves or
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: present themselves to be much more appealing to be a
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: pundit on a cable news channel like CNN. I'm just asking,
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: just asking the questions here. But yes, Van Jones was
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: in fact an identified member of the Communist Party and
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: participated in organization's influence by Marxist ideas that ladies and
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: gentlemen is absolute, irrefutable fact. And so now Van Jones
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: is out there and he's all concerned because he's getting blowback.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: And the reason why he's getting blowback is because now
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: he's saying that the Democrat Party has just gone too far,
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: and that now that now that these young, young and
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: hungry communists are rising up through the ranks and they
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: have pretty much taken over the Democrat Party. Now everybody
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: is freaking out. Here's Van Jones Cut fourteen.
• 22:41
  Speaker 12: With Gretchen Carlson. So then your post struck a nerve, right,
• 22:45
  Speaker 12: we saw it strike a nerve on Fox News. I
• 22:47
  Speaker 12: saw it strike a nerve among many on the left. Yes, okay,
• 22:53
  Speaker 12: for whom some of those things you mentioned have become rallying,
• 22:58
  Speaker 12: passionate rallying calls.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 23:00
  Speaker 12: Yeah, but you knew it was gonna Ben didn't walk
• 23:06
  Speaker 12: into a moment like this being like, oh I don't
• 23:08
  Speaker 12: think this is gonna happen.
• 23:10
  Speaker 5: Let me go like this.
• 23:11
  Speaker 6: Oh why to you?
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: What do you say?
• 23:13
  Speaker 5: Because this was necessary?
• 23:16
  Speaker 13: Thank you all, This was.
• 23:17
  Speaker 10: Very especially from your voice.
• 23:19
  Speaker 12: Now I'm gonna let you respond first, because this is
• 23:21
  Speaker 12: about you, and then I can pick up.
• 23:23
  Speaker 13: Well, listen, I cannot tell you. This phone has been
• 23:28
  Speaker 13: blowing up all day. Governors from both parties, Senators from
• 23:33
  Speaker 13: both parties, UH, Democrats in the House calling thanking me
• 23:37
  Speaker 13: for saying what everybody's been saying behind the scenes, which
• 23:40
  Speaker 13: is that this stuff is going too far. I am
• 23:43
  Speaker 13: a progressive Democrat.
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: You know you want to talk about.
• 23:46
  Speaker 13: Prison reform, I've done it as well as anybody, Republican
• 23:49
  Speaker 13: Democrats in the South with Trump, I've done prison reform.
• 23:53
  Speaker 13: I never said have no prisons. Where are you gonna
• 23:55
  Speaker 13: put the klan? I've done police reform. I never said
• 23:58
  Speaker 13: no police Where you're gonna put the pedal files. We're
• 24:00
  Speaker 13: going to grab the pedophiles. This stuff is going too far.
• 24:03
  Speaker 13: And part of the thing that has to happen is
• 24:05
  Speaker 13: we saw what happened in the Republican Party when things
• 24:08
  Speaker 13: started going in a nutty direction and nobody stood up.
• 24:11
  Speaker 13: I am happy that the young people are fighting for affordability, medicare,
• 24:16
  Speaker 13: for all all the good things. I've been waiting my
• 24:18
  Speaker 13: whole life to see a youth movement do what it's doing,
• 24:21
  Speaker 13: but it's being hijacked by people who are putting in
• 24:24
  Speaker 13: nutty ideas supporting terrorists, nutty ideas saying that we don't
• 24:28
  Speaker 13: need cops in prisons.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: We can't we can't.
• 24:29
  Speaker 13: Deport anybody even if they rape somebody who said this Chevalier,
• 24:33
  Speaker 13: where do cheval Jolie.
• 24:34
  Speaker 14: Is going to be?
• 24:35
  Speaker 12: Is the Democratic nominee? So sorry, DSA nominee for Congress
• 24:40
  Speaker 12: now from the Bronx in New York.
• 24:41
  Speaker 13: I just I just want to say that there was
• 24:44
  Speaker 13: a shockwave through this party when Mam Donnie, who everybody
• 24:49
  Speaker 13: decided about, stabbed in the back Espiot who with the
• 24:53
  Speaker 13: with the chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, beloved by
• 24:57
  Speaker 13: everybody who backed Mam Donni. Mam Donnie said I will
• 25:00
  Speaker 13: back you, then turns around stabbed them in the back
• 25:03
  Speaker 13: back Chevalier.
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: All right, there you go. So that's just a snippet
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: there of the conversation with Van Jones on CNN. And
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: the problem is they've opened Pandora's box and they don't
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: know what to do.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: The Democrats are done their party. It's over the Nancy
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: Pelosi's Look, when AOC came to power nant it was
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: over for Nancy Pelosi it's over for Chuck Schumer. They're
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: not controlling their own party anymore. Hi King Jefferies is
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: not even controlling his own party, and Hi King Jefferies
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: is fighting for his political life right now. That's how
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: tenuous things are within the Democrat Party. So the question
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: now is ken is there any way to salvage it?
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: And I don't believe there is Bill Maher making this statement.
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: He was he was doing an interview on ABC's This
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: Week Cut thirteen.
• 25:59
  Speaker 14: Please, so I'm not living in communist America.
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: I mean, I know.
• 26:05
  Speaker 14: The talking point is that it's not communism and socialism. Okay,
• 26:09
  Speaker 14: I've read the quotes from the DSA on platform, from
• 26:14
  Speaker 14: their own mouths. Don't tell me I'm not seeing what
• 26:17
  Speaker 14: I am seeing.
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's true. So now Bill Maher says he's done
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: with the Democrats. So the question is what happens. What
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: happens now, Well, we're going to have to wait and
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: see because as as we have seen in the primaries,
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: these radical progressives have been very successful, at least the
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: three that won in the New York primaries. They will
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: be in Congress, There's no doubt about that. The question
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: moving forward is all right, what about places like Tennessee
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: where you've got the ninth Congressional district and we're going
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: to be talking to a candidate on the Republican side
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: of the aisle, Jeremy Thompson about that in just a
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: matter of moments. But will the Progressives? Will their message
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: resonate in other parts of the nation besides the big
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: urban centers. But even still, I don't think that matters
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: if even if the Progressives the only races they win
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: are in those big cities like Chicago, like Seattle, like
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: Los Angeles and others, if they're able to be successful there,
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: they will take full control of the Democrat Party. And
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: at that point, what do you do? Do you start
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: a third party? I mean, history has proven that has
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: not worked out well. However, on the other side of
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: the aisle, you've got a looming civil war within the
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: Republican Party. Once Trump has gone after the midterms, it's
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: really going to get interesting watching the Republicans because there
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: will be a fight for control of the Republican Party.
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: Will the establishment regain control or will the America First crowd.
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: Will they maintain control and move the party forward? That
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: will be decided in the aftermath of whatever happens in November.
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: So anyway, Van Jones, Yeah, I mean, look the guy.
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: I mean, for ten years of his life he was
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: a communist. I don't see how you can thoroughly cleanse
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: yourself of that ideology and just a short amount of time.
• 28:16
  Speaker 15: I don't.
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: I do not get that. I would rather, I rather
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: believe that Van Jones basically softened his image so he
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: would be appealing for a job in the Obama administration,
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: which he got, and then as a long time pundit
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: over on CNN. That's what That's what I think is
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: going on with Van Jones. But again, there's no reason,
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: no reason for Rachel Campo Stuffy to apologize. Come on,
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: stand by your people, Fox. Come on nine oh one
• 28:44

• 32:12
  Speaker 3: I love it, So it's well, there you go. It
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: was interesting. I was at the supermarket yesterday.
• 32:17
  Speaker 16: Helen just said, what's a pork rind?
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: Wait?
• 32:19
  Speaker 16: What not from the South?
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: Helen? What is wrong with you? Are you kidding me?
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: Pork rinds are like it's a Southern delicacy and you
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: don't want to see him maid though, that's the only
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: thing I was. I had a chance to meet Terry Brimhall,
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: who was the owner of Brimsnack Foods many many, many
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: many years ago, one of the finest family owned companies
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: in America. By the way, they're just good good people,
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: Salt of the Earth.
• 32:46
  Speaker 18: I just looked them up and I'm seeing them and
• 32:49
  Speaker 18: I have never seen these before in my life.
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: They are once you, once you try a pork rind,
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: you will you're going to be addicted. It's basically deep fried.
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: It's the deep fried skin of a pig, wonderful with salt.
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: It's very tasty and it has sort of like a
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: I don't know, it tastes like bacon. I mean when
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: you when you eat them, it sort of has a
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: little bacony taste. Everybody, okay, yeah, all right, yeah, no,
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: it is bacon chips exactly. So anyway, curious to know
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: what your favorite junk food is in America? Nine oh
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six. Is there
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: something you just you gotta have you can't live without?
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: So I was in the supermarket yesterday. I was looking
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: for a Vandalia onion. And first of all, I'll get
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: back to the vadalia in just a second. No, I'll
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: start with a Vadalia. I don't know if the Vandalia
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: onions in the Kroger are actually Vandalia onions, because it's
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: like the finest onion in America, and I I just
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: don't know if I'm getting snookered, because apparently you're supposed
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: to be able to know if you're eating a Vadelia onion,
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: which is apparently made in I think they're only grown
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: in what Vadilia, Georgia.
• 34:13
  Speaker 16: I only know yellow and red, so I don't I
• 34:17
  Speaker 16: don't go that far into the onion sphere.
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: So anyway, I'm over there contemplating whether or not I
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: want a yellow onion or a Vadilia onion, and what
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: is the difference between the two, And then I look over.
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: There's a huge crowd around the lettuce section of the
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: produce section and Dylan. People were just literally eyeballing. They
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: were stopping and they were looking and staring at the
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: lettuce wondering if it was safe. Yeah, you have to,
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: so I just boldly I actually had to eat a
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: salad last night, so I boldly go over. I just

• 38:24
  Speaker 3: two six zero five to nine two six.
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: We've been following a number of races around the nation
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: as we march toward the midterm elections. One of those
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: races happens to be right here in Tennessee, the ninth
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: Congressional District race. The National Republican Congressional Committee naming this
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: as one of their targets for the midterm elections. They
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: see this as a pick up for the Republicans in
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: the House of Representatives. There is a very very competitive
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: primary going on on the Republican side of the isle.
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: One of the candidates joining us in studio this afternoon.
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: His name is Jeremy Thompson and he is running for
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: Congress in the Dive Congressional district. Jeremy, good to see
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: you today, Thanks for dropping by.
• 39:11
  Speaker 17: Thank you, Todd. We appreciate you having us on.
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: So first of all, your reaction to the news that
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: came out political reporting yesterday, the NRCC coming out and
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: saying this is a big race for the fate of
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: the party nationwide. What say you to that?
• 39:26
  Speaker 20: Absolutely, we knew immediately when Tennessee called emergency session and
• 39:30
  Speaker 20: put this on the plate for redistricting, that this would
• 39:33
  Speaker 20: be a national level event, not just because of what's
• 39:36
  Speaker 20: being said and created here in Memphis, but just to
• 39:38
  Speaker 20: retain conservative Republican vision and control in the House in
• 39:43
  Speaker 20: the United States Senate.
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: When you look at the lay of the land here
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: and this is a newly drawn district, it is a
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: very long district. You guys are putting a lot of
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: biles of the vehicles. I want to talk about the
• 39:58
  Speaker 3: makeup of the district and what you discovered out there.
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: But first, I'm really intrigued by your story because you
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: have an amazing background. You and your wife own a
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: restaurant there in is it the middle part of Tennessee?
• 40:10
  Speaker 3: What part of Tennessee or do you guys love that.
• 40:12
  Speaker 17: Dead center south of Nashville, Lincoln County?
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: Faith?
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: Wow? Okay, all right, so give us a little bit
• 40:18
  Speaker 3: of your story. Yeah.
• 40:19
  Speaker 20: So my story starts with a call to serving other people.
• 40:25
  Speaker 20: From the time I was young and trying to figure
• 40:27
  Speaker 20: out what I was going to do post high school graduation,
• 40:30
  Speaker 20: I was led to serve other people. So I went
• 40:33
  Speaker 20: into public safety and service as a volunteer firefighter. Then
• 40:36
  Speaker 20: I went to school to be an emergency medical technician.
• 40:39
  Speaker 20: I was highly interested in law enforcement and what that
• 40:41
  Speaker 20: may look like as a long term career.
• 40:44
  Speaker 17: And then, in.
• 40:44
  Speaker 20: Addition to getting qualified in all three of those fields,
• 40:48
  Speaker 20: had a friend come to me one day and say,
• 40:49
  Speaker 20: you should join the Army National Guard and go be
• 40:51
  Speaker 20: a soldier. And I love this country. I love it
• 40:54
  Speaker 20: enough to die for it. I love people enough to
• 40:57
  Speaker 20: die for them. That's just the way I've been built,
• 41:00
  Speaker 20: and that's the way I was raised and I wake
• 41:03
  Speaker 20: up every morning trying to make today better than yesterday.
• 41:05
  Speaker 20: And I have never responded to an emergency or conflict
• 41:10
  Speaker 20: abroad with the Republican Democrat independent thought on my mind.
• 41:15
  Speaker 20: When you wake up in the morning, at three o'clock
• 41:16
  Speaker 20: in the morning and somebody needs help, you respond. You
• 41:18
  Speaker 20: do the best you can, regardless of what someone's political
• 41:22
  Speaker 20: affiliation may be.
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: What would you say is the top issue facing the
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: ninth Congressional District in Tennessee.
• 41:30
  Speaker 20: I think the top issue facing the ninth Congressional District
• 41:33
  Speaker 20: is the fact that the emergency was created.
• 41:37
  Speaker 17: It's a national.
• 41:39
  Speaker 20: Level event being watched by the DC politicians to expand
• 41:45
  Speaker 20: conservative Republican views and ideology. I think we have to
• 41:49
  Speaker 20: protect everything we know as a nation because we're being
• 41:54
  Speaker 20: ideologically infiltrated by communist socialists Marxist ideology, and now we
• 41:59
  Speaker 20: have this very rapid expansion of Sharia and Islam, which
• 42:04
  Speaker 20: I think is wholly incompatible.
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: So I think, I mean and again I think there
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: it's a two prong thing. First of all, I think
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: the Jihatist are using socialism as the trojan horse to
• 42:17
  Speaker 3: get into to America. And I think the socialists are
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: going to wake up one day. If they're successful, they're
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: going to think they're in control, and they're going to
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: find out the ji Hotist are taking charge. I mean,
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: we've seen this play out in so many other countries
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: around the world, and we're watching it happen in real
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: time here in America. I know that one of the
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: big issues in Tennessee has been the voucher system. And
• 42:40
  Speaker 3: you know, it's a challenge if you're going to give
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: because quite frankly, if you're going to give parents money
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: to send their kids to a to a Christian school
• 42:49
  Speaker 3: or a Jewish school, you're going to have to let them.
• 42:52
  Speaker 3: Let the musclim parents do the same thing and send
• 42:54
  Speaker 3: them to the Muslim schools. My question is, what the
• 42:57
  Speaker 3: hell are they teaching in those schools.
• 42:59
  Speaker 17: I think we know. I don't think there's a question there.
• 43:01
  Speaker 20: I think we are all very well aware of what's
• 43:03
  Speaker 20: being taught in that radical religious ideology, and that if
• 43:08
  Speaker 20: at some point they can gain enough speed and power
• 43:11
  Speaker 20: within the United States, they would absolutely overthrow everything we
• 43:14
  Speaker 20: love and know about it.
• 43:15
  Speaker 3: Now funded to buy our tax dollars, I think that's
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: the rub for a lot of folks.
• 43:19
  Speaker 20: It is, and obviously, I think we all believe in
• 43:21
  Speaker 20: school choice and free markets and the freedom to do
• 43:26
  Speaker 20: what we need to do or want to do in
• 43:27
  Speaker 20: the United States of America. But with great freedom comes
• 43:30
  Speaker 20: great responsibility, And when we start putting tax money toward
• 43:34
  Speaker 20: government funded programs, we have to have some level of
• 43:38
  Speaker 20: oversight and accountability.
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: I think about those schools like, for example, Hillsdale or
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: West Coast Bamptist College, very successful Christian schools. They don't
• 43:48
  Speaker 3: take a single penny of tax money, and it just
• 43:51
  Speaker 3: seems to me that's the right way to go here.
• 43:53
  Speaker 3: You know, if you know, because once you are, once
• 43:56
  Speaker 3: you're taking that government money, you're beholden to the government.
• 43:59
  Speaker 20: Well, it's a growing fascination, I think with a lot
• 44:02
  Speaker 20: of people who don't know what we know, or maybe
• 44:04
  Speaker 20: they didn't.
• 44:04
  Speaker 17: Grow up how we grew up.
• 44:06
  Speaker 20: But if you're out there and you think you're victimized
• 44:09
  Speaker 20: by government, I would say that you need less government.
• 44:11
  Speaker 20: You don't need more of it. I'm certainly a fan
• 44:14
  Speaker 20: of less government.
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: The Democrats have made this a national race as well.
• 44:19
  Speaker 3: Over the weekend you had Alexandria O Cassio Cortez Summerly
• 44:23
  Speaker 3: Ayanna Presley coming in doing a huge rally for Justin Pearson,
• 44:27
  Speaker 3: who is more than likely going to be the Democrat nominee.
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: The guy is a radical leftist. They were in a
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: church here in Memphis, over a thousand people in attendance,
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: and the pastor said that the Bible promotes socialism and
• 44:40
  Speaker 3: that Jesus was a socialist. I mean, if you win
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: the Republican nomination, this could very well be your guy
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: that you have to go up against. How do you
• 44:48
  Speaker 3: combat that Jesus was a socialist?
• 44:50
  Speaker 20: Well, I think people have to be way smarter than
• 44:52
  Speaker 20: the circumstances being surrounded by them. They will continue to
• 44:58
  Speaker 20: push these narratives and twist and shape anything they can
• 45:02
  Speaker 20: to try to introduce this Marxist socialist, communist ideology that
• 45:06
  Speaker 20: we've seen infiltrating everything we know.
• 45:09
  Speaker 17: For the last fifty or sixty years.
• 45:11
  Speaker 20: I think we should take some ownership in that in
• 45:14
  Speaker 20: the conservative base that we didn't get out in front
• 45:17
  Speaker 20: of it quick enough. But if you want to know
• 45:19
  Speaker 20: if socialism or communism Marxism works around the world, all
• 45:23
  Speaker 20: you have to do is read a little bit of
• 45:24
  Speaker 20: a history book and understand that's not the direction we
• 45:27
  Speaker 20: want to go as the United States of America.
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: It's sort of shocking that even here in Memphis. I mean,
• 45:31
  Speaker 3: it's one thing if it's in New York City or
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: in Berkeley or San Francisco, but it's happening in Memphis, Tennessee.
• 45:37
  Speaker 3: We're watching the rise of these radical progressives, and also
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: in Nashville as well.
• 45:42
  Speaker 17: Right, it's all over the state.
• 45:44
  Speaker 20: We talk about this often, and it's usually your higher population,
• 45:48
  Speaker 20: democrat controlled areas that are pushing this ideological infiltration on
• 45:53
  Speaker 20: the people. The problem I think that we have is
• 45:56
  Speaker 20: that Republican conservatives generally have this foundational position of just
• 46:02
  Speaker 20: being good to people, and I know that's been shaped
• 46:04
  Speaker 20: in a different narrative for a lot of people in
• 46:07
  Speaker 20: the inner city. But like I said, if you're out
• 46:09
  Speaker 20: there and you think you're victimized by your circumstances or
• 46:12
  Speaker 20: what's going on around you, I would just say, take
• 46:14
  Speaker 20: a pause for a minute and look at what you're
• 46:16
  Speaker 20: governed by. Who are your elected leadership, how are your
• 46:20
  Speaker 20: police departments being run? Is their personal accountability anymore? That's
• 46:23
  Speaker 20: the big thing here. I don't think anybody's taking any
• 46:26
  Speaker 20: personal responsibility or accountability. And then we look to our neighbors,
• 46:29
  Speaker 20: to our left and right, our family members. We don't
• 46:32
  Speaker 20: hold them accountable anymore. We don't have whod government officials accountable.
• 46:36
  Speaker 20: Things are getting a lot more reckless throughout government. And
• 46:40
  Speaker 20: that's been my story as a candidate. If you want
• 46:43
  Speaker 20: someone to go to Washington, d C. And put real
• 46:46
  Speaker 20: time thought and resolutional issues and hold the left, right
• 46:50
  Speaker 20: and center accountable, I'm that person.
• 46:53
  Speaker 17: That's why I did this. That's why I'm running for
• 46:54
  Speaker 17: the United States Congress.
• 46:55
  Speaker 3: Jeremy Thompson dot com is his website, Jeremy Thompson dot com.
• 47:00
  Speaker 3: I mean you can also follow him on all the
• 47:02
  Speaker 3: social media. You got the X, Instagram, Facebook doing TikTok.
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: By any chance, it's.
• 47:06
  Speaker 17: Probably going on a small scale.
• 47:08
  Speaker 20: I don't know.
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: Personally, I can't figure that out to save my life.
• 47:11
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you that the social media stuff drives me bonkers.
• 47:14
  Speaker 17: So, yeah, the kids are good at it, I guess.
• 47:16
  Speaker 20: But I you know, I was in the intelligence community
• 47:19
  Speaker 20: for the Army for twenty two years, and it was
• 47:22
  Speaker 20: it was explicitly told to us not to get involved
• 47:25
  Speaker 20: in TikTok.
• 47:25
  Speaker 3: I can understand, yeah, I get. I can understand why
• 47:29
  Speaker 3: our telephone number nine O one two six zero five
• 47:32
  Speaker 3: nine two six. That's nine oh one two six zero five,
• 47:35
  Speaker 3: nine to six. I'm wondering what you're hearing from your constitution,
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: from your constituents out there. I mean, it is a
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: massively long, newly redrawn district. What are you hearing from, folks?
• 47:47
  Speaker 3: What are what's on the minds of the voters.
• 47:49
  Speaker 20: This is a mostly rural district with a lot of
• 47:51
  Speaker 20: agriculture and farm farmers, farmland. And you have you have
• 47:57
  Speaker 20: the southern part of Memphis, which which is populated. Then
• 48:00
  Speaker 20: you had the northern part of Williamson County, Brentwood, Franklin,
• 48:04
  Speaker 20: spring Hill, Nolansville that are highly populated areas. And what
• 48:10
  Speaker 20: I'm hearing is that people want some kind of balance
• 48:13
  Speaker 20: to be drawn between what we're seeing in the news
• 48:18
  Speaker 20: and what's really going on in government. Who's going to
• 48:20
  Speaker 20: go to the United States Congress on their behalf and
• 48:23
  Speaker 20: be their voice and be the strongest person in Congress
• 48:26
  Speaker 20: to bring resolution to the issues. Now, I'll tell you,
• 48:29
  Speaker 20: over twenty two years of military experience, I've learned one
• 48:33
  Speaker 20: thing is that one person doesn't have all the answers,
• 48:35
  Speaker 20: but a very ambitious motivated, motivated and organized person knows
• 48:40
  Speaker 20: how to be process oriented, knows how to build coalitions
• 48:43
  Speaker 20: and teams, and knows how to go to work on
• 48:45
  Speaker 20: day one and start getting the job done.
• 48:47
  Speaker 3: Have you have you been surprised by the vitriol in
• 48:51
  Speaker 3: this campaign because some of your opponents here on their
• 48:54
  Speaker 3: I mean, the Republican primary is just downright ugly.
• 48:58
  Speaker 17: You know, I had anticipated that.
• 48:59
  Speaker 20: I think I talked to my wife, Lindsay about that
• 49:01
  Speaker 20: when we first entered, and you know, we said, if
• 49:03
  Speaker 20: stones didn't don't get thrown at us by our own party,
• 49:06
  Speaker 20: stones will certainly start getting thrown at us by the
• 49:08
  Speaker 20: Democrat party if we should win this primary. Well, that's
• 49:12
  Speaker 20: something that we've embraced. I think good people have to
• 49:15
  Speaker 20: stop sitting in the shadows and watch all this unfold.
• 49:18
  Speaker 20: But we said at the beginning, and I had this
• 49:20
  Speaker 20: conversation with Todd, I had it with Brent, and I
• 49:22
  Speaker 20: had it with Charlotte, I'm not going to get involved
• 49:24
  Speaker 20: in the ugliness if we can't win this on merit
• 49:27
  Speaker 20: and qualification and the people's desire to put us in
• 49:30
  Speaker 20: this office, we don't want it to begin with. But
• 49:33
  Speaker 20: our vision is to take the strongest principled positioned voice
• 49:38
  Speaker 20: to the United States Congress and start making immediate change.
• 49:41
  Speaker 20: We cannot continue to be hung up on the things
• 49:43
  Speaker 20: that affect less than one percent of this country.
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: Well, Justin Pearson has already started slinging mud, and I
• 49:51
  Speaker 3: think they. I think he believes that State Senator Brent
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: Taylor is going to be the person he's running against,
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: and he's called Taylor a racist, a white supremacist, but
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: he actually said that about everybody in the State House.
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: And I have to assume if you get the nomination,
• 50:06
  Speaker 3: he's going to be calling you a racist and a
• 50:08
  Speaker 3: white supremacist as well. How do you deal with those
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: kinds of the slurs.
• 50:12
  Speaker 20: Well, you know, I think number one, we all, regardless
• 50:15
  Speaker 20: of our political affiliation, have the responsibility to be good
• 50:18
  Speaker 20: to one another. And I actually had the opportunity to
• 50:20
  Speaker 20: have this conversation with Justin Pearson at the Hamilton Restaurant
• 50:23
  Speaker 20: in Washington, d C. We were both there to talk
• 50:26
  Speaker 20: to our political consultants and potentially meet with the Southeastern
• 50:30
  Speaker 20: Political Affairs team at the White House on trajectory and
• 50:34
  Speaker 20: campaign health and things like that. The only thing I
• 50:36
  Speaker 20: knew about Justin Pearson is what I had seen about
• 50:38
  Speaker 20: him on TV.
• 50:40
  Speaker 17: And he did not know anything.
• 50:41
  Speaker 20: About Jeremy Thompson. He had never met known me or
• 50:44
  Speaker 20: knew that I was even on the ticket. But I
• 50:46
  Speaker 20: introduced myself and told him that I was going to
• 50:49
  Speaker 20: be a candidate for.
• 50:49
  Speaker 17: The Night's district.
• 50:50
  Speaker 20: And his response to me was, I hope you beat
• 50:53
  Speaker 20: the hell out of Brent Taylor. And I said, well,
• 50:55
  Speaker 20: I'm going to, but I'm gonna beat the hell out
• 50:57
  Speaker 20: of you two.
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: What did he say to that? Did he?
• 51:00
  Speaker 20: We both laughed just a little bit about that, and
• 51:03
  Speaker 20: we talked about maybe uh, communicating and connecting to see
• 51:06
  Speaker 20: what issues we could we could align on and which
• 51:10
  Speaker 20: ones that we were vehemently disagreeing on, and uh, I
• 51:13
  Speaker 20: found him to be in that moment.
• 51:16
  Speaker 17: Approachable.
• 51:17
  Speaker 20: But then I also told him that if we're going
• 51:19
  Speaker 20: to represent people, we have a responsibility to behave.
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: I mean, he called a state trooper to his face
• 51:23
  Speaker 3: a mother afting boy.
• 51:25
  Speaker 17: That's right.
• 51:25
  Speaker 3: Well that and didn't apologize, doubled down on.
• 51:28
  Speaker 17: That that's right.
• 51:29
  Speaker 20: And I told him, I said, I don't know what
• 51:30
  Speaker 20: your raising was. I don't know what your childhood was.
• 51:32
  Speaker 17: I know what mine was.
• 51:33
  Speaker 3: His parents were preachers.
• 51:34
  Speaker 20: Well, when when when I misbehaved like that and I
• 51:37
  Speaker 20: showed blatant disrespect or any kind of intolerant behavior, I
• 51:42
  Speaker 20: got my butt busted, and I got it busted good.
• 51:45
  Speaker 20: And he shared that he got the same And I
• 51:47
  Speaker 20: told him if my mom had seen me act like
• 51:50
  Speaker 20: he's acted in the Tennessee State legislature, I would have
• 51:53
  Speaker 20: been whipped across our farm.
• 51:54
  Speaker 3: What did he say to that.
• 51:56
  Speaker 20: He broke contact and went to a booth with his consult.
• 52:00
  Speaker 3: See, well, it's it's it's just disgusting. In my estimation.
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: The only other disgusting thing I've seen so far as
• 52:07
  Speaker 3: what happened to that mensa Memphis pizza joint tim Boli's
• 52:10
  Speaker 3: where the four National Guard troops were told they were
• 52:12
  Speaker 3: not welcome to eat there. Is this is happening in Memphis,
• 52:17
  Speaker 3: and I have to get your reactions as a as
• 52:20
  Speaker 3: a military veteran to what happened to those young people. Yeah.
• 52:23
  Speaker 20: I was a twenty two year National guardsman and what
• 52:25
  Speaker 20: I would like to tell people who are listening is
• 52:28
  Speaker 20: that the National Guard is made up of men and
• 52:31
  Speaker 20: women of.
• 52:31
  Speaker 17: All culture, cultures, colors, and backgrounds.
• 52:34
  Speaker 20: They are good men and women who are out here
• 52:37
  Speaker 20: to enhance and help the community. If a reduction by
• 52:41
  Speaker 20: fifty percent in your crime rate and criminal activity is
• 52:44
  Speaker 20: not reflective of the goodness of their presence, I don't
• 52:47
  Speaker 20: know what is. But again, I'm going to default back
• 52:51
  Speaker 20: to we all have a responsibility to be good to
• 52:53
  Speaker 20: each other. And you cannot continue to view the Tennessee
• 52:58
  Speaker 20: National Guard, the federal law enforcement troops or federal law
• 53:04
  Speaker 20: enforcement officials and local police officials that are here trying
• 53:06
  Speaker 20: to make a positive difference in your life. You can't
• 53:08
  Speaker 20: treat them like dirt and expect positive results.
• 53:11
  Speaker 3: I mean, I guess you know, again, it's not against
• 53:13
  Speaker 3: the law. I mean, you can deny service, you know,
• 53:15
  Speaker 3: if you want to. I think it's a pretty darn
• 53:17
  Speaker 3: bad business model, but you know, it is what it is.
• 53:20
  Speaker 20: Well, I think that's where we have a responsibility as
• 53:22
  Speaker 20: society to hold those kind of things accountable.
• 53:24
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 53:24
  Speaker 20: We used to do that through boycotts and things like that.
• 53:27
  Speaker 20: And I would I would call I would call for
• 53:30
  Speaker 20: a boycott or an apology.
• 53:33
  Speaker 3: You're gonna beat the hell out of bread Tailor. It
• 53:34
  Speaker 3: sounds like you don't like the guy very much.
• 53:36
  Speaker 17: It's not that I don't like Brent. I didn't even
• 53:38
  Speaker 17: know Brent. Brent didn't know me.
• 53:40
  Speaker 20: I know Brent's been running for political office for over
• 53:42
  Speaker 20: thirty years now, and I'm done with career politicians and
• 53:46
  Speaker 20: we cannot do politics as usual in the ninth Congressional
• 53:49
  Speaker 20: District of Tennessee and expect different and positive results. I'm
• 53:54
  Speaker 20: not a coattail, I'm not a line tour. I'm a
• 53:58
  Speaker 20: free thinker. I'm a free man, and I believe in
• 54:01
  Speaker 20: less government, liberty and accountability.
• 54:04
  Speaker 3: All right, Brent Taylor, I'm sorry. Jeremy Thompson, we got
• 54:07
  Speaker 3: to leave it there in my apologies Jeremy Thompson dot com.

• 56:39
  Speaker 3: We got to do it. I'm not sure about the
• 56:42
  Speaker 3: fried deviled eggs. But hey, I'm willing to try him.
• 56:45
  Speaker 16: If it's the most popular thing, it has to be good.
• 56:47
  Speaker 3: It's got to be Yeah, it's got to be good.
• 56:48
  Speaker 3: But it's all like Revolutionary war themed.
• 56:51
  Speaker 16: That's really cool. I haven't seen anything like that.
• 56:53
  Speaker 3: I wonder if they like cut. Do they like, you know,
• 56:55
  Speaker 3: if you want to cut your burger in half? Do
• 56:56
  Speaker 3: they like bring out a sword like George Washington's sword,
• 57:00
  Speaker 3: a bayonet or a Bayonette's that's instead of a skewer.
• 57:04
  Speaker 3: You know, you.

  Speaker 3: to twenty, the host of the morning show there. Michael,
• 57:21
  Speaker 3: hope you're doing well today.
• 57:24
  Speaker 8: I would do. I would be doing far better if
• 57:26
  Speaker 8: you had mentioned the name of the restaurant again, because
• 57:28
  Speaker 8: I didn't catch it in whatever other segment you talked
• 57:29
  Speaker 8: about it. And I just heard Fried Devil Daggs and
• 57:31
  Speaker 8: I've never had that either. But it's somebody from from
• 57:34
  Speaker 8: the South, from Texas. Anything Fried has got to be
• 57:36
  Speaker 8: better than the original version, and Devil Daggs are already good.
• 57:39
  Speaker 8: Where are we going?
• 57:39
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, we're going. This is We just had Jeremy
• 57:42
  Speaker 3: Thompson on. He's running for Congress in the Tennessee ninth.
• 57:46
  Speaker 3: He owns a place called the Revolutionary Tavern. That's the name,
• 57:51
  Speaker 3: and everything is Revolutionary War themed.
• 57:54
  Speaker 8: Yeah, that's excellent. We'll be When you guys mentioned you're
• 57:56
  Speaker 8: going out a road trip, can we just meet there?
• 57:58
  Speaker 8: Can we just all go?
• 58:00
  Speaker 2: Oh?
• 58:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, most definitely. This sounds like a lot better.
• 58:04
  Speaker 3: You know, our and our intern had actually wanted us
• 58:07
  Speaker 3: to go to the Olive Garden, so I think this
• 58:09
  Speaker 3: may be a step up from that.
• 58:11
  Speaker 8: So yeah, well that's the Italians. We gotta we gotta go.
• 58:14
  Speaker 3: South America Italians. Oh god, it's you know, it's one
• 58:18
  Speaker 3: of the things that was so depressing when I lived
• 58:20
  Speaker 3: in New York City, Uh, the number of tourists who
• 58:22
  Speaker 3: were eating at the Olive Garden in Times Square. I'm like, really, people, really,
• 58:27
  Speaker 3: you're gonna get You're gonna come to like the Italian
• 58:30
  Speaker 3: mecha and you're gonna eat at the Olive Garden.
• 58:32
  Speaker 8: I mean, you're talking to the right guy. I I unfortunately,
• 58:35
  Speaker 8: and I don't admit this often, but I have an
• 58:36
  Speaker 8: Excel spreadsheet on my laptop, my work laptop that I
• 58:39
  Speaker 8: have all the restaurants in Houston kind of graft out
• 58:42
  Speaker 8: by yellp reviews and Google reviews to find out where
• 58:44
  Speaker 8: I'm going to eat when I want to pick a
• 58:45
  Speaker 8: new place. So I'm I'm all down to not to
• 58:47
  Speaker 8: go to Olive Garden.
• 58:49
  Speaker 3: No. Absolutely. Now, as far as like restaurants in Houston,
• 58:53
  Speaker 3: go like, where do you have like a favorite like
• 58:55
  Speaker 3: steakhouse joint or barbecue joint that you go to.
• 58:58
  Speaker 8: Yeah, so barbecue we have quite a because we have
• 59:00
  Speaker 8: Mitchellin rated. But I like kind of finding other stuff
• 59:02
  Speaker 8: that's not necessarily on the list and other But there's
• 59:05
  Speaker 8: a place kind of down in Parlant. It's a suburb
• 59:06
  Speaker 8: but it's less busy, so it's kind of nice. It's
• 59:08
  Speaker 8: called Killin's Barbecue, kind of a stable. There's also he
• 59:10
  Speaker 8: also has Killen's Burger's Killing Steakhouse. Killin's Barbecue has absolutely
• 59:16
  Speaker 8: excellent stuff. So the brisk gets very good. Everything on
• 59:18
  Speaker 8: the menu is good, The mac and cheese is great.
• 59:20
  Speaker 8: Highly recommend it.
• 59:22
  Speaker 3: They have things like I'm going through the menu now
• 59:24
  Speaker 3: of the Revolutionary Tavern they have instead of starters, they
• 59:28
  Speaker 3: call it first Formation. So you've got Eggs of the
• 59:33
  Speaker 3: Rebellion and that's the deep fried doubled eggs with candied bacon.
• 59:39
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, my cholesterol just went up reading that.
• 59:43
  Speaker 3: Something called Paul Revere's Midnight Bites, which are steak tips
• 59:46
  Speaker 3: glazed in sweet and spicy molasses and served with They
• 59:50
  Speaker 3: call it a midnight ride for your taste buds.
• 59:54
  Speaker 8: Is he considering opening maybe like a version of that
• 59:56
  Speaker 8: down in Texas? Could he consider maybe opening a second one?
• 59:59
  Speaker 8: I'll help with that.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 3: We gotta we gotta talk to him. Forget about Congress,
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 3: Jerry Thompson. We got a franchise.
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 8: We got better stuff for you, better stuff, more important things.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 3: Yankee doodle Mac. Well, there you go, cheesy comfort worth
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 3: marching for.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 8: There you go.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 3: All right. We could spend the entire day going through
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 3: the menu, but they're not paying. They're not a paying client,
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 3: so we're gonna leave it there. Look, Michael, a lot
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 3: of stuff happening in Texas. But I told you so.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 3: Moment involves James Tallerico and he's getting him he's got
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 3: a problem. Now we understand with black voters in Texas
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 3: who are just not buying that Jesus was, you know,
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 3: non binary stuff that he's been spewing.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 8: Yeah, and I I actually, I'm sure you said it
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 8: more than I have. But I've long held I I
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 8: always use the analogy if you ever meet somebody that's
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 8: that's really well off. Something I often find this isn't
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 8: always true, but I find it pretty frequently, is that
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 8: these people tried to find happiness from getting a lot
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 8: of money, and it turns out that that doesn't bring
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 8: you any sort of lasting joy. And so if you
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 8: didn't find joy when you didn't have a lot, you
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 8: don't then magically have joy when you do get a lot.
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 8: And it's the same thing with Democrats. They're just miserable
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 8: people and so they always demand more and more things
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 8: and it doesn't matter how much. James Hellerico is arguably
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 8: one of the most progressive candidates to ever run in
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 8: the state of Texas, really to run anywhere, and it's
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 8: still just not enough for people. It's still is not enough.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 8: And that's that's insane.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 3: You know, it is. It is fascinating because that's really
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 3: the crux of the whole socialist movement. You know, they
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 3: don't want to work for what they get and they
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 3: want what you actually work for, and there's this cost.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 3: I love. A senator or Secretary of State, Mark Rubio,
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 3: was giving a speech about this yesterday, and I thought
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 3: he did a brilliant job of just describing social socialism
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 3: as distinctive and unique evil. And he said it's driven
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 3: by hatred above all else for civilization itself.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 8: No, And he's absolutely right. And I've said this a
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 8: long time because I've heard that Jesus was a hippie
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 8: socialist line, and I've been hearing that since I was,
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 8: you know, in you know, little little Sunday schools child.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 8: That's been a big claim from the evangelical movement is
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 8: to try to paint Jesus as this sort of just
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 8: always peaceful, always giving, and that's it. But part of
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 8: the problem is that people misunderstand virtue in general. So
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 8: often you cannot force virtue. You can try all day
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 8: long to do it, but there's a lot of virtues
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 8: that people have to come to on their own. That's
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 8: why tithing doesn't work. When it's like we have a
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 8: required that's when it becomes a cult, we have a
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 8: required tithe. It's like, well, I would never go there,
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 8: because charity has to be given out of love. That's
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 8: that's what makes it charity. And the problem with socialism
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 8: is that it's demanded charity, which is just theft. It's
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 8: that's that's the primary difference there. It's not charity anymore,
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 8: it's just theft.
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 3: Michael Wilson joining us from Patriot Talk nine to twenty
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 3: in Houston. Our telephone number, by the way, nine oh
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 3: one two six zero five, nine two six. That's nine
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 3: oh one two six zero five nine two six. You
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 3: know you mentioned socialism. Had a pastor over the weekend
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 3: at one of the big black mega churches saying that
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 3: Jesus was the socialism of the Bible encourages social life.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 3: And I'm my concern is that so many white conservative
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 3: churches have disengaged from the culture wars, they've become insolar,
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 3: that this kind of rhetoric is going to spread, and
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 3: I'm not sure we can stop it right now.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 8: Yeah, and I also think not to be you know,
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 8: super super conspiracy theorist, but I also think todd that
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 8: a lot of that was done intentionally That's why I've
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 8: always said that studying history, speaking of the revolutionary Tabis,
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 8: studying history is so important because we've been basically intimidated
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 8: to believe that separation of Church and State, as written
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 8: by Jefferson, was somehow meaning that the Church shouldn't ever
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 8: be involved in politics. You'd even hear candidates that were
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 8: supposedly strong Christians say things like I'll leave my faith
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 8: at the door when I go into the legislature. And
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 8: I've been saying for years that's the direct, actually opposite
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 8: of what separation of Church and State was. That was
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 8: supposed to protect the churches and their ability to worship
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 8: Christ freely, and instead we've treated it like a get
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 8: out of jail free card for us to just ignore
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 8: every thing going on in politics. And the result, of course,
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 8: has been catastrophic, because you can't have a culture and
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 8: a body politic without something guiding it. And if it's
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 8: not going to be the real Jesus Christ, it's going
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 8: to be something else.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 3: It's a great point. Look, I go to a church,
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 3: and I love my church, and I love how our
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 3: pastor you know, infuses you know, whatever is happening in
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 3: the culture into the message and again, it's not forcing people,
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 3: and it's not telling people you've got to vote Republican
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 3: or you've got to vote Democrat. It's telling people vote
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 3: your values, vote what the Bible. You know, if if
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 3: you're a follower of Christ, follow the teachings of the
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 3: Bible and select candidates who share those values, it seems
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 3: pretty simple to me.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 8: Yeah, maybe maybe don't vote for people that want to
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 8: murder unborn children. That might be a first step kind
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 8: of thing.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 8: And our pastor, one of our pastors, he prays basically
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 8: every Sunday a sort of imprecatory style. Saw him and
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 8: he says, listen, Lord, I ask that you would you
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 8: would come after these wicked rulers and that you would
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 8: change their hearts, cause them to turn to repentance in you,
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 8: so that they can legislate fairly and with justice in
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 8: this country. And if they won't, that you would tear
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 8: down those rulers and you would replace them with rulers
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 8: who will follow your word, the same as David would
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 8: have said of the rulers in his time. And we've
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 8: have to be more clear about that in saying, hey,
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 8: our goal is not some sort of ethos where we
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 8: just say, oh, we hate these people and they're leftist,
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 8: crazy communists, but they were honest and say, no, this
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 8: is wicked rulers. These are wicked leaders who are abandoning
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 8: all moral principle that this country is founded on and
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 8: has caused a two hundred and fifty year time of
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 8: enjoy unimaginable peace and prosperity. But that only happened because
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 8: we had wise leaders who loved Jesus. And the first
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 8: step in that is knowing who Jesus is. And if
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 8: you're going to miss paint and misrepresent who Jesus was,
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 8: you're not going to get there.
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 3: Just curious how things are going in Texas with the
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 3: Senate race there Paxton, it seems like he's raising a
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 3: lot more money these days. How are things looking.
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 8: I'm actually pretty excited because I don't want to say
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 8: that I knew, but there was a small concern and
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 8: you know that kind of like voice in your in
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 8: your ear that's kind of whispering and saying things aren't
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 8: going to go well. That said that the party wasn't
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 8: willing to unite, that we're too divided right now, because
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 8: I mean, you look at the corn and Packston primary,
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 8: and you can see very clearly these are almost two
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 8: different parties that if we weren't a two party system, those
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 8: guys wouldn't even be in the same party. If you
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 8: had like five parties, they'd be in different ones. And
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 8: so that was a very big concern going into the general,
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 8: was are we going to have the donors? Are we
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 8: going to have a lot of the party rallying behind
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 8: somebody that may be very different than who they supported
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 8: in the primary. And on the bright side, all the
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 8: evidence I'm currently seeing is that it appears like that'll
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 8: be the case. Any part of that is that James
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 8: Salarco is so unbelievably insane that your only option is Paxton. So,
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 8: I mean, that's why if you talked about Tallerriico and
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 8: that black black woman that set up in his Houston
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 8: kind of campaign stop, she even said, I might rather
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 8: have Paxton than whatever you are, Like, That's that's kind
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 8: of where the people are at, is you're so insane
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 8: that we only really have one option even if we
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 8: don't like the other guy.
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 3: I want to switch gears here before we have to
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 3: ramp it up this. I don't know if you've seen
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 3: this viral video of the guy, this old timer at
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 3: a Chicago Cubs game and there's he's standing for the
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 3: national anthem. There's a kid in front of him. I
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 3: guess he's a kid. He it looks like to be
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 3: in his late teen's early twenties. And the kid's just
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 3: he's not standing for the national anthem. And so the
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 3: guy said, if you'ren't stand up for the national anthem,
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna smack you. And he gave him a warning
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 3: and the kid didn't do anything. So the guy smacks
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 3: him upside the head. And I just love it because
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 3: the kid actually stood up.
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 8: And now, I mean the guy he want to be
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 8: a liar. Once you say, I mean, if it's gonna
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 8: go out of your mouth, once you say, you kind
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 8: of got it.
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 3: If you're a man, you kind of got to go
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 3: through with it. Why do I not? I do not
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 3: have a problem with what this guy did.
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 8: No, I think part of the problem is and this
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 8: kind of goes back to like when you watch the
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 8: Batman movies. Almost I know there's a weird tie in,
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 8: but I as a kid grew up watching the Christian
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 8: Bale Batman's That was like my childhood Batman and I
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 8: love those films because it was a in a city
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 8: that's been so corrupted and he so lost its way.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 8: Maybe somebody can kind of fix it. It's kind of
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 8: the same thing here. We shouldn't need an older fellow
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 8: who doesn't know you to smack you to get you
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 8: to stand for the national anthem? Where are your parents?
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 8: How are they raising you? What's the culture doing that
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 8: Patriotism is somehow now evil? We're not respectable, Like there's
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 8: a massive cultural epidemic. If we're having to smack people
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 8: in the first place to get them to stand up
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 8: for the national anthem. I mean, it really is just
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 8: wild to me.
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 3: All Right, we all you gotta leave it there. Everything
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 3: going well there at Patriot Talk nine twenty. We love
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 3: hearing from so many of your listeners. It's that they
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 3: call in all the time.
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 8: Yeah, things could have be going better. Things are going swell.
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 8: We've been going out to all the events we have. Anyway,
• 1:08:29

• 1:08:31

• 1:08:34
  Speaker 8: love being a part of the community. I think we
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 8: do that maybe better. I don't like to name competition,
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 8: but we do that a lot better than a lot
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 8: of radio stations that we like actually being out and
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 8: not just being a radio station that has a studio
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 8: and then does nothing. We we like being out and
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 8: being a part of the community. We've gotten quite good
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 8: at it.

  Speaker 3: you imagine, I mean, you're just, first of all, who
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 3: doesn't stand for the national anthem? But when when some
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 3: big old timer from Chicago says you better stand for
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 3: the national anthem, We're I'm going to smack you in
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 3: the head. You better stand up.

  Speaker 3: And the guy, it didn't look like he was in
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 3: a wheelchair or anything, I mean, but he popped right up. Yeah,
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 3: so problem solved. It's Oh what was it was?

  Speaker 3: and they.
• 1:09:53

• 1:11:00
  Speaker 3: This is interesting, Dylan, you met you and the lovely
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 3: missus h missus producer may find this helpful. So you know,
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 3: when when you have kids, and especially preteen kids, they're
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 3: going to be asking questions and sometimes they're going to
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 3: be going through stuff and you got to talk to
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 3: him about it, and those are very uncomfortable conversations. A
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 3: lot a lot of them are very uncomfortable. So one
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 3: mom in Australia has come up with a super duper plan.
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 3: I remember back when I was a kid when it
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 3: came time for the talk. You know what, my this
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 3: is terrible. You know what your great it would have been,
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 3: your great aunt and great uncle. Did you know what
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 3: they did? You know what? My parents did?
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 16: What they do?
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 3: They bought me the entire Time Life series called the
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 3: Book of Life. Oh and said read this.
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 16: Wow.
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 3: Got in trouble later on in the school year because
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 3: I was a big baseball fan as a kid, and
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 3: I sold the book for, like, I don't know, two
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 3: hundred baseball cards. And you know why I got two
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 3: hundred baseball cards. There were photographs in that Book of Life.
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 3: Yeh those were photos. Yeah, they were very valuable.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 16: I'll do it.
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, two hundred cards. That's a good two hundred cards.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 3: I got sent to the principals office.
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 16: I'm sure you did, oh P.
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 3: Sullivan Elementary school boy. So anyway, this mom has a
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 3: new way of parenting. When the kids ask the weird questions,
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 3: she sends them to chant GPT. Oh boy, this is great,
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 3: and she actually uses chat GPT as a baby sinner.
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 3: This mom says that she has four kids ranging from
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 3: ages five to twelve, and as a result, you know,
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 3: she's just busy. So whenever it doesn't matter if it's
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 3: you know, whatever problem the kid has, she'll just go
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 3: to chant GPT. And she says that AI has actually
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 3: made her a better parent. She says, I work less
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 3: than twenty five hours a week because of how much
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 3: I use AI, from the pantry to homework, Oh the homework.
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 3: You know, the dreaded question is can you help me
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 3: with my algebra? But she also says that she uses
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 3: the technology to help in the kitchen, planning meals, writing
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 3: out the recipes, grocery list, how to stick to a budget,
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 3: so all of that is done by chance GPT.
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 16: You know, chut GPT is great, but is it a parent?
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 16: Is it parent?
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 2: Great?
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 16: Because I mean, you know, kids are iPad kids for
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 16: a reason. They're they're not raised with parents, They're raised
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 16: with their phones or iPads. This is kind of giving
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 16: me the same feeling like just go to AI for
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 16: your homework everything. What happens when AI goes away? Like
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 16: what do you have? Then?
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 3: That's you know, it is a great question. It is
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 3: a great question. I actually try to use chance GP
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 3: to write a commercial for the new book The Golden Age. Yeah,
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 3: you know what gptcient because the end is promoting a
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 3: book that advocates a political viewpoint. I can't help write
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 3: a persuasive political of course not.
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 16: No, it's not gonna help you, of course not.
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 3: But you can tell kids about the birds and the base.
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 3: You can't write my freaking TV commercial. Sorry, I got
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 3: a little wound up there. Haven't hit my doctor Peppers
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 3: of the day just yet. All right, we gotta take
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 3: a break. Coming up, Mary Walter turns out mayor ma'm
• 1:14:28

• 1:14:32

• 1:15:26
  Speaker 3: All right, President Trump now warning that the US would
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 3: hit any site where Iran is considering developing their nuclear capabilities.
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 3: So the President making these comments from the White House,
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 3: reiterating his vow Iran cannot cannot have a nuclear weapon.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 3: The President said, any site where they're even thinking about
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 3: nuclear will hit it very, very powerfully. Nobody knows except
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 3: the Iranians the damage that we've done to them. We
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 3: have done damage that'll take them twenty twenty five years
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 3: to recover. So if we left tomorrow, we had a
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 3: big success. But we're not leaving tomorrow. A couple of
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 3: thoughts here. First of all, I thought we had already
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 3: destroyed Iran's nuclear capabilities, So this certainly implies that we
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 3: have not been success at doing that now, there's this
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 3: is all very strange, And I want to go back
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 3: to a conversation we had yesterday. We had General John
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 3: Tigert on, a great military mind, and he is he
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 3: is very concerned about where we are right now with
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 3: the situation in Iran, and he said it is a
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 3: giant mess. And I believe what the general is saying here.
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 3: The President also saying that we're going to be striking
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 3: a Iran's Pickaxe Mountain probably pretty soon, a heavily fortified
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 3: underground complex near a uranium enrichment facility. All right, why
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 3: why are we waiting until now to do that? So
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 3: we have to go back and look at all of
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 3: the things the White House has been telling us. They
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 3: told us four to six weeks this thing would be over.
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 3: Clearly that did not happen. I don't see an end.
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 3: I don't see the end game here. I don't see
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 3: the end in sight. Maybe you do, I do not.
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 3: Then the White House told us in April that we
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 3: had destroyed those are the words, not damaged, destroyed their
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 3: ballistic missile and their drone capabilities. We now know that
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 3: to be untrue because or at least not accurate, because
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 3: we have dead Americans as a result of an Iranian
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 3: ballistic missile attack and drone attack on our forces in Jordan.
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 3: By the way, there's reporting out there that Iran maybe
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 3: getting intel from and possibly Russia, over the exact location
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 3: of our military troops. That is a troubling situation. So
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 3: the question is, I mean, how do we get out
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 3: of all of this? I mean, it's a mess. It's
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 3: a mess, So how do we get out of it? Well,
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 3: there are there are one of There are a couple
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 3: of thoughts here. Number one this is you cannot trust
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 3: I don't care what the Vice President of the United
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 3: States says. You cannot trust the Iranians. And this memorandum
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 3: of understanding that turned out to be a load of fertilizer.
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 3: This memory it's not going to work because the Iranians
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 3: aren't going to honor it. The only people trustworthy in
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 3: all of this are the Americans. So it seems to
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 3: me we've got a couple of options here. Number one,
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 3: we can just immediately declare victory and leave. Or number two,
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 3: we can implement regime change, arm the Iranians and let
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 3: them get new leadership in there. And I know I
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 3: am not a fan of regime change. It has never worked.
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 3: When the United States puts these people in power, it
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 3: never works. But I can't see any other way out
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 3: of this other than just saying, all right, we're declaring
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 3: victory and we're out of here, because the Iranians are
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 3: still going to be shooting missiles, and if they're not
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 3: shooting at us, they're going to be shooting at Israel.
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 3: And there are a lot of people saying, I told
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 3: you so. We never should have gotten involved in Iran
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 3: in the first place. Now there are others, and I
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 3: will say that I believe we have been at war
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 3: with Iran since nineteen seventy nine, and I believe that
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 3: we should have taken care of that business a very
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 3: long time ago. But multiple presidents kick that can down
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 3: the road, multiple presidents, and as a result, many, many
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 3: thousands of Americans have lost their lives. It's appalling, it's
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 3: a tragedy. It's disgusting. I mean, they're your you pick
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 3: your adjective. So the question is what do we do here?
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 3: Because the people in the Middle East, they do not
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 3: think like you, and I think, they don't cherish life
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 3: like you and I cherish life. We're talking about radical
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 3: Jie Hottist nine oh one two six zero five nine
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 3: two six are a number. Let's go to clear Lake City, Texas.
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 3: Mike listening to us on Patriot Talk nine to twenty, Mike,
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 3: what are your thoughts on that? Oh?
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 21: Thank you? Well, my question to you is is there
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 21: no one in President Trump's administration that realizes they're dealing
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 21: with people who are apocalyptic? I mean, they're all about Islam,
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 21: the Kuran and Sharia law, which in their mind supersedes everything.
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 21: They're on a mission from Allah, and they're not going
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 21: to listen to to reason. They never have and they
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 21: never will.
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 3: It's no, it's a fair point. I mean they are,
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 3: and I don't you know, maybe the broader question is
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 3: does the administration understand we're finding a religious war here?
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 3: This is not some sort of a you know, from
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 3: our vantage point, yes, Islam is a political ideology. But
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 3: in their minds, they're waging jihad on behalf of you know,
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 3: their God, and that makes it a very different war.
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 3: I mean, these people, they do not have they will
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 3: not think twice about strapping bombs to their kids and
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 3: having them run into an American military. You know, a battalion.
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 15: Right.
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 21: And if you remember in World War Two, the reason
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 21: why Patent was successful against Romnel is because everyone that
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 21: preceded Patent that went up against Rommel thought like a
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 21: west Point cadet. Patent studied German tank commanders, and so
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 21: he thought like a German tank commander, not a west
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 21: Point cadet. And that's to me the trouble with the administration.
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 21: We're thinking like Western civilization mentality and their stone age,
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 21: you know, like I said, religious apocalyptic mentality.
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 3: Mike, What's what's the answer here? How do we how
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 3: do we get out of this without getting dragged into
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 3: another you know, five ten year war.
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 21: That's not how do they say that that's above my
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 21: pay grade? That that I have no clue. I just
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 21: know that we're the earth is under spiritual attack, not
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 21: seen since the days of Noah, and I really don't
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 21: have the answer.
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 3: Mike, Well, thank you for the call. And I know
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 3: that sounds depressing. I don't think it is. I think
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 3: that we are in a in a spiritual war, no
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 3: doubt about that. But we've got a we've got a
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 3: hard choice to make here, and I just see this.
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 3: I don't see an easy way out of the situation
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 3: we've gotten ourselves into. And you wonder if President Trump
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 3: is really frustrated now with the people who who initially said,
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 3: all right, we've you know, we've got to go in.
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 3: I don't know. I do not know the inner workings
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 3: of the White House on this one, but it is
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 3: a disturbing situation we've gotten ourselves into. And again, this
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 3: should have been handled. And I knew as soon as
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 3: the ceasefires started and I don't know how many, how
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 3: many ceasefires have we had, one, four or five, six?
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 3: As soon as they started dropping, I'm like, that's it.
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 3: That's it. We're not serious about winning this, and we're not.
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 3: My concern is we're going to get more American young
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 3: men and American young women killed or maimed as a
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 3: result of us being over there. All right, Nine oh
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six is our
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 3: telephone number. That's nine oh one two six zero five nine.
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 3: I want to play some audio here. This is from
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 3: Secretary of State Marco Rubio. It's a great speech he
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 3: gave yesterday talking about socialism. Cut number nine plays.
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 6: This is a distinctive and unique evil.
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 22: It has always been driven by a hatred above all else,
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 22: a hatred for civilization itself. It is a revolt of
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 22: the worst against the best, a revolt of the weak
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 22: and the cowardly against the strong and the good. It
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 22: is perpetrated by those who cannot build, who cannot create,
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 22: who cannot achieve great things, and take their revenge upon
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 22: the world for their own inadequacy by seeking to destroy
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 22: those who can.
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 6: This is what radical leftism is.
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 22: It may wear various different slogans and ideologies across place
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 22: and time. They can call themselves anti capitalists or anti imperialists,
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 22: or communists or anarchists or Marxists, but the fundamental.
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 6: Is always the same. It's always the same.
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 22: It is a poisonous resentment cloaked in the language of
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 22: equality and justice and liberation, and overwhelming need to tear
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 22: down what greater men have built, to wreck what is
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 22: beautiful and what is right on behalf of people who
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 22: are only filled with ugliness and have nothing else to
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 22: offer the world. Through violence and through terror, they once
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 22: again seek to impose their ugliness all of us. The
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 22: old dogma was wrong. The old dogma was wrong. None
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 22: of this is driven by idealism. It is not utopian
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 22: in fact, it is the opposite. One of the criticisms
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 22: you sometimes hear of communism, for example, is that it
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 22: sounds good in theory, but it never works in practice.
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 22: That's actually not true. Communism does not sound good in theory.
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 22: The world that envisions for all of us is small, flat, gray,
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 22: leveled of all exception, drained of all that is good
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 22: and noble in the human soul. The world that envisions
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 22: is a world without courage, a world without creativity or ambition,
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 22: a world without heroes or glory or great causes to
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 22: strive towards, without a world without miracles, without myths, without
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 22: men who rise above the rest to do incredible and
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 22: extraordinary things. And the world communism and visions is a
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 22: world without God. For these architects of revolutionary violence, the
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 22: towering achievement of our civilization for them, it's an unbearable humiliation,
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 22: a reminder of what they cannot do and a reminder
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 22: of what they cannot be. So they choose instead to destroy.
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 22: They attack pipelines, they attack railroads, They attack power grids
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 22: and laboratories, the physical embodied symbols of power and invention
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 22: and achievement. This is the nature of the terrorism we
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 22: face today. They despise the West because the West is great.
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, He's absolutely right. One of the most brilliant messages
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 3: I have heard in a very very long time. Ladies
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 3: and gentlemen. Let's go to the phones here Salem, Oregon.
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 3: Kathy listening to us on k y K and Hi Kathy,
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 3: what's on your mind today?
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 7: Hi Todd. First of all, I want to say that
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 7: someone that I love and one of my very best
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 7: friends is an Orthodox Orthodox Jew. But you know, October
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 7: eleventh was a massacre, and those gozzup people just came
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 7: over and slaughtered those concertgoers. I believe this is just
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 7: my opinion, but I believe that God has his limits.
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 7: And all of those young Jewish kids that came from
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 7: actually all over Europe to attend that concert, they were
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 7: all dancing and listening to this concert in the presence
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 7: of this huge Buddhast statue. It was all lit up.
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 7: And that Buddhists, those Buddhist statues are idols. And I'm
• 1:28:30
  Speaker 7: one that believes that God has his limits, and that
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 7: action of dancing half naked in front of that statue,
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 7: they tore down their own wall.
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 3: Look, Canty, I don't I don't speak for God I
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 3: I have. You know, it's not my place to question God.
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 3: And again I believe that that. Here's my take on
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 3: on God is that he set things in motion and
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 3: we get to live our lives how we want to
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 3: live our lives. How we live our lives will have
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 3: consequences either now or in the in the afterlife. I
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 3: believe that I believe in free will. My belief in
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 3: God would not allow me to believe what you're saying.
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 3: So you're you're thinking that God punished those young people
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 3: because they were dancing in front of a of a
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 3: of a statue.
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 7: That's not what I said.
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 3: What I said was, then let's get to it. What
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 3: did you say? Yeah, what did you say?
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 7: Okay? They pour their own walls down by the behavior,
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 7: because blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 7: and he protects Israel day and night. But they tore
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 7: down the protections by what they were doing. And in
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 7: front of our statue.
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 5: Sad thing that.
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 7: Happened at the base of Sinai. They were all dancing
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 7: and neked in front of the idol, that golden cass
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 7: and the earth swallowed them up.
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 3: Well, I yeah, I hear what you're saying. I don't.
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 3: I don't agree with that. And I think all of
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 3: the blame goes on the gie Hottest who crossed over
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 3: the borders and killed those young people. I mean, those
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 3: young people you know, we're having a good time out
• 1:30:29
  Speaker 3: in the you know, out in the woods of the
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 3: desert or wherever they were. And I don't I don't
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 3: blame them one iota for for what happened. I just don't.
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 3: I blame the gie Hottest. They're the ones that are,
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 3: you know, ultimately responsible for this. Canthy, I gotta run,
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 3: We got to go to a break. Nine oh one
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 3: two six zero five nine two six. This is the
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 3: Todd Sterns Show.
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 2: Is Mickey Mouse racist?
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 18: Mickey Mouse is not racist.
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 2: It's not racist.
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 23: According to the Smithsonian Institution, one of your exhibits referenced
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 23: to Mickey Mouse is representing quote vestiges of long standing
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 23: traditions of blackface minstrel sy. Would you describe that as racist?
• 1:31:17
  Speaker 18: No, the historical trajectory of the origins of Mickey Mouse,
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 18: tied directly to.
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 2: Mickey Mouse, is rooted in racism. Is that you're testimony?
• 1:31:28
  Speaker 18: Or it's rooted in Menstrrelly.
• 1:31:30
  Speaker 23: Minstrel seeing you don't think the blackface minstrel sy is racist,
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 23: and it's.
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 18: Certain on obvious racial overtones that have been well documented.
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 23: I think that that's problematic that Mickey Mouse also has
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 23: those racial overtones.
• 1:31:43
  Speaker 18: It's not for me to determine what's problematic. It's determined
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 18: to me what's accurate.
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 2: Is that?
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 3: Right? Yeah, that's the head of the Smithsonian up on
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 3: Capital Hell today and they literally put a label on
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 3: the Mickey Mouse exhibit at the SMITHSONI in that Mickey
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 3: Mouse was an example of black faith. You can't you
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 3: can't make this up. It's just it's insane.
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 15: Uh.
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 3: We have some more audio here. This is and by
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 3: the way, that's Congressman Brandon gil I love that guy.
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 3: He's out of Texas's denesh Desus's son in law, by
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 3: the way, married as his daughter. So anyway, we'll play
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 3: we'll play some more of this a little bit later.
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 3: I don't think we have a we don't have enough
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 3: time here. But it turns out that the Smithsonian also
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 3: believes that being polite is a form of racism, of
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 3: white supremacy. And all of this is coming out today
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 3: up on Capitol Hill as Republicans grill the Smithsonian director
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 3: over the wokeness that has infested the museum system. Oh yeah,
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 3: being polite. Being polite is a defining characteristic of white
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 3: supremacy culture. So Gil asks the director rat the gain
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 3: isn't important to be polite? And she said yes? And
• 1:33:10
  Speaker 3: he said, well, are you a white supremacist? And she
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 3: said no, She wasn't. Wow, this is this is what
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 3: Trump is trying to root out. Ladies and gentlemen. Nine
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 3: oh one two six zero five, nine two six, that's
• 1:33:25
  Speaker 3: our telephone number. We'll be right back.
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 2: And is it important to be polite? Excuse me? Is
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 2: it important to be polite? Yes, sir.
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 23: It's also interesting because the same mass action toolkit that
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 23: your organization has been promoting references politeness as a defining
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 23: characteristic of white supremacy culture.
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 2: Man, are you a white supremacist? No, sir, you're not.
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 23: Can you help me square why your organization says that
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 23: being polite is part of being a white supremacist.
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 18: I'm not exactly familiar with that passage of the mass
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 18: action toolkit, which is nut.
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 2: I can show you the welop I.
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 23: Don't, I said, I just read you the passage from it.
• 1:34:29
  Speaker 3: Wow, this is insane what's been going on at the Smithsonian.
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 3: So not only were they saying that Mickey Mouse is
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 3: a form of blackface, but now they're suggesting that politeness
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 3: is a form of racism or white supremacy. And all
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 3: of this, by the way, being funded by your tax dollar.
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 3: So good for the Republicans for exposing this. The question
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 3: is what's going to be done about it? Seems to
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 3: me the answer is very simple. You either remove this
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 3: crapola from your museum or you lose all of your
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 3: federal funding. I mean, for me, it really is that simple.
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 3: What say you, ladies and gentlemen. Nine oh one two
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six is our telephone number.
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six.
• 1:35:14
  Speaker 3: I want you to listen to this interview a guy
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 3: by the name of Joey Salaton. He owns a farm
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 3: in Virginia, and the guy is fighting Virginia regulators over
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 3: his chickens. Take a list of to cut ten.
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 24: The state came in and said said that's illegal, And uh,
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 24: it never occurred to.
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 2: Me that it would be.
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 24: That's how naive I was, And just what do you
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 24: mean we've I'm a I'm a voluntary farmer, they're a
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 24: voluntary buyer.
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 2: We're neighbors. What do you mean we.
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 24: Can't butcher a chicken here and sell it to them?
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 24: And they said, well, the air is unsanitary, the airs,
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 24: so you can't, you know you can't. And and I
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 24: figure they never go on a picnic, you know, really,
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 24: And I said, if one fly enters your processing area,
• 1:36:06
  Speaker 24: then it's an adulterated chicken and inedible. Here was the
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 24: way they were trying to get me. Your windows have
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 24: to be covered with fly impregnable mesh. Their interpretation was
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 24: that that assumed you had a wall. I said, no,
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 24: it doesn't say I have to have a wall. It
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 24: says if I have to have a wall in her windows,
• 1:36:27
  Speaker 24: they have to be screened. This became the crux of
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 24: the showdown, and they're they're saying this is all illegal.
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 24: We're gonna shut you down because you have to have
• 1:36:36
  Speaker 24: a wall. I said, it doesn't say I have to
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 24: have a wall. It just says if there is a
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 24: wall and it's got windows. So we went around and
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 24: around around. We finally went through the federal inspection. We
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 24: got our senator, our delegate involved and our attorney and
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 24: different things. Anyway, three months later we won. We won that,
• 1:36:58
  Speaker 24: but it was it was a knockdown drag, you know.
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 24: It was a I mean, it was our livelihood. They
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 24: were going to eliminate our farm and eliminate all of
• 1:37:07
  Speaker 24: our customers from getting vaccine antibiotic free chicken, which at
• 1:37:13
  Speaker 24: that time was very unusual. It's a little more usual
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 24: now more people have come to it, but at that
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 24: time it was extremely unusual to be able to find
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 24: an antibiotic free, vaccine free chicken. And and so we
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 24: you know, we won that, but but that's the kind
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 24: of that's the kind of stuff they do. They came in,
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 24: they said, so, well, you have to have you have
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 24: to have changing lockers for your employees. I said, we
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 24: don't have any employees, so you have to have nine
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 24: changing lockers.
• 1:37:44
  Speaker 2: I said.
• 1:37:45
  Speaker 24: Our house is thirty feet from where we're doing the chicken.
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 24: We do the chickens in the backyard, you know, so
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 24: we have to have bathrooms. Bathrooms why, I said, I've
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 24: got two in our house, two in mom's house. They're
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 24: forty and fifty feet away. And if I want to
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 24: go number one, I just had my on the tractor.
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 21: You know, what are we going to do about that?
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 24: But you know, when we had the show down, our
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 24: minority leader in the House of Delegates in Virginia came
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 24: a legislative aide for our elected guy. And she's standing there,
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 24: she's sitting there with these guys, and she's got her
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 24: little half moon glasses, you know, and she looks up
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 24: at in our living room, and she looks up at
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 24: them and she says, gentlemen, is it possible that somebody
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 24: in Richmond created these rules who could not have conceived
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 24: of a place like Polyface. And of course they had
• 1:38:32
  Speaker 24: to say yes they could. And interestingly, at that time,
• 1:38:36
  Speaker 24: we had just had a microbiology lab run a test
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 24: on our swab tests on our chicken. They'd gone to
• 1:38:42
  Speaker 24: the store and bought chicken. They'd come here and got chicken,
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 24: sent them to a lab to test for bacterias. Yes, yes,
• 1:38:50
  Speaker 24: and our cultures averaged one hundred and thirty three colony
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 24: forming units of bacteria per milla, leader to the second permutation.
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 24: I already don't know what I'm just saying, but that's
• 1:39:00
  Speaker 24: the way they write it. One hundred and thirty three.
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 24: The store bought birds that had forty chlorine baths. Ours
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 24: had no antimicrobials. The store bought birds averaged three thousand,
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 24: six hundred, six hundred versus one thirty three. And I said, so,
• 1:39:17
  Speaker 24: if it's clean, who cares if it's outside inside in
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 24: the kitchen, you know, if it's clean, it's clean. Well,
• 1:39:23
  Speaker 24: that's not all we're concerned about. So well, what else
• 1:39:25
  Speaker 24: do you do? That's when they start with the bathrooms,
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 24: changing tables, all this, you know, And so this this
• 1:39:30
  Speaker 24: was the progression of the thing.
• 1:39:33
  Speaker 3: So the reason I wanted to share that with you
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 3: is there is a lot of growing concern that you've
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 3: got these big corporations and they're poisoning the food chain.
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 3: And I've been doing a lot of reading up on this,
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 3: and it's really shocking the amount of chemicals, the amount
• 1:39:52
  Speaker 3: of things they're doing to our food, you know. For example,
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 3: and I'll just give you an example of this. When
• 1:39:59
  Speaker 3: you go and get out, like you want a chicken breast.
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 3: I mean, if you go to your local you know,
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 3: mom and pop farm, a family owned farm, and you
• 1:40:06
  Speaker 3: buy chicken breast, they're going to be you know, regular
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 3: sized chicken breast. If you go to the store they're gigantic.
• 1:40:13
  Speaker 3: Something's not right there, the way they're whatever they're putting
• 1:40:17
  Speaker 3: into the chickens. Uh, it is it is not normal.
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 3: It is not natural, and it is not healthy for you.
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 3: And I have been on a kick lately of doing
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 3: more shopping at farmers' markets and making sure that I'm
• 1:40:32
  Speaker 3: getting as much food and produce as i can from
• 1:40:37
  Speaker 3: locally run farms. And you should too. You should too,
• 1:40:42
  Speaker 3: because that is the only way we're going to be
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 3: able to protect the food chain in our nation. But
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 3: it is shocking the amount of chemicals that they're putting
• 1:40:52
  Speaker 3: into our food. And this guy, this guy's doing it
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 3: a very unique way, and he fought Virginia regulators and
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 3: ended up winning the day. But good for this guy.
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 3: are number. That's nine oh one two six zero five
• 1:41:10
  Speaker 3: nine two six. There's a crazy story out of Colorado.
• 1:41:15
  Speaker 3: The Republican nominee for governor. I just can't.
• 1:41:21
  Speaker 15: I can't.
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 3: This story is beyond me. Victor Marx was three years old.
• 1:41:28
  Speaker 3: He says he was forced into a voodoo ritual involving
• 1:41:31
  Speaker 3: a beheaded cat, and at the age of seven, he
• 1:41:35
  Speaker 3: killed a man. I am not making this up, ladies
• 1:41:38
  Speaker 3: and gentlemen. This is the actual guy. He beat all
• 1:41:40
  Speaker 3: the other contenders. He's the MAGA endorsed candidate. They're in Colorado.
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 3: A man who killed somebody at the age of seven.
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 3: Mister Marx now runs a high risk Christian ministry. That's
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 3: what he calls it, a high risk Christian ministry. Says
• 1:41:58
  Speaker 3: he's rescued forty five thousand people from captivity and abuse.
• 1:42:04
  Speaker 3: As a civilian, he supposedly called in a US military
• 1:42:08
  Speaker 3: air strike that killed seventy ISIS fighters. He's also exercised
• 1:42:14
  Speaker 3: demons and can do that over the phone if need be.
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 3: Is that like an eight hundred number dille that you
• 1:42:21
  Speaker 3: can call one eight hundred get rid of C ten?
• 1:42:27
  Speaker 3: I don't that's frightening anyway. This is all on the record.
• 1:42:34
  Speaker 3: So the guy sat down to do an interview and
• 1:42:37
  Speaker 3: he was asked as and I'm just going to give
• 1:42:39
  Speaker 3: credit where credit is due here. If you're a reporter
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 3: and you're out on the campaign trail saying that as
• 1:42:45
  Speaker 3: a seven year old, your father told you to go
• 1:42:47
  Speaker 3: out and shoot somebody or kill somebody, then you've got
• 1:42:51
  Speaker 3: to you've got to answer that, all right, take a
• 1:42:54
  Speaker 3: listen to how the interview went at this point.
• 1:42:57
  Speaker 10: There's nothing that could shock us anymore.
• 1:43:00
  Speaker 8: Your claim that your abusive stepfather forced you to kill
• 1:43:02
  Speaker 8: a man when you were seven years old?
• 1:43:04
  Speaker 6: Is that the only person you've ever killed?
• 1:43:15
  Speaker 25: Well, I would say as a child.
• 1:43:22
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 1:43:26
  Speaker 10: Hey, that was an astoundingly long pause for a very
• 1:43:30
  Speaker 10: simple math problem.
• 1:43:32
  Speaker 12: Please tell me the rest of the answer is less bizarre.
• 1:43:36
  Speaker 6: Do you think that you've killed people as an adult?
• 1:43:41
  Speaker 2: Does it matter?
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 15: Yeah?
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 8: It's so Sorry.
• 1:43:45
  Speaker 25: Yeah, i'd say so.
• 1:43:47
  Speaker 20: If you want to be in.
• 1:43:48
  Speaker 8: Charge of an entire state, your answer to have.
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 24: You killed anyone?
• 1:43:51
  Speaker 10: Cannot be a seven minute silence followed by a hard path.
• 1:43:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I'm a little concerned by the law and pause there.
• 1:44:04
  Speaker 7: You know that.
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 3: It seems to me that that's a pretty easy answer. Hey, Dylan,
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 3: have you ever killed anybody?
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 15: No?
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 3: All right, there you go. See see how quick that is.
• 1:44:17
  Speaker 3: Let me let me get back to you, man. I yeah,
• 1:44:22
  Speaker 3: I just I mean as a seven year old. But
• 1:44:24
  Speaker 3: here's what gets me. Uh, this guy got the nomination.
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 3: That's what gets That's what gets me. So one of
• 1:44:32
  Speaker 3: his one of his Republican opponents, the runner up, actually
• 1:44:36
  Speaker 3: declined to endorse marks, and I'm I'm telling you, if
• 1:44:39
  Speaker 3: I'm a Republican in Colorado, yeah, what do you do?
• 1:44:46
  Speaker 3: His opponent or in the Republican's her name is Barbara Kirkmeyer.
• 1:44:50
  Speaker 3: She's a state senator. She said, for the record, I
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 3: still haven't killed anyone. Is that really what it's come
• 1:44:56
  Speaker 3: to in the Republican Party anyway? That's the situation out
• 1:45:04
  Speaker 3: in Colorado. All of this to say, and the guy
• 1:45:07
  Speaker 3: says that God told him to run and that's why
• 1:45:10
  Speaker 3: he's running. And he's got the he's got the support
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 3: of MAGA. I don't know if that's going to be
• 1:45:15
  Speaker 3: enough to get him elected to the governor's mansion. But
• 1:45:18
  Speaker 3: ladies and gentlemen, at some point you have to wonder
• 1:45:20
  Speaker 3: about electability here and and some explanation I think is due.
• 1:45:26
  Speaker 3: I mean, if you're out there saying, yes, I killed us,
• 1:45:29
  Speaker 3: I killed someone as a seven year old child, okay,
• 1:45:32
  Speaker 3: you kind of need to explain yourself. By the way,
• 1:45:34
  Speaker 3: the police have no record of any murders or anything
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 3: that would you know, connect this guy as a seven
• 1:45:43
  Speaker 3: year old to you know, killing somebody. So maybe he did,
• 1:45:49
  Speaker 3: maybe he didn't. His answers are very odd and let
• 1:45:54
  Speaker 3: me just say this. If he didn't, then maybe there's
• 1:45:58
  Speaker 3: something mental going on there, because I don't know if
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 3: anybody else that goes around bragging about killing somebody at
• 1:46:04
  Speaker 3: the age of seven. Let's go to Doug in Georgia. Wdun, Hi, Doug,
• 1:46:09
  Speaker 3: what's on your mind?
• 1:46:11
  Speaker 25: Hey? Back to what you were talking about food? You know,
• 1:46:14
  Speaker 25: and I'm so glad to hear that you're trying to
• 1:46:16
  Speaker 25: eat whole food and get out of this process stuff.
• 1:46:19
  Speaker 25: But it just triggered in my head. We were watching
• 1:46:23
  Speaker 25: Woodstock again last night because I've got a younger child
• 1:46:26
  Speaker 25: who's never seen Woodstock. I'm talking about thirty year old kids.
• 1:46:31
  Speaker 25: Everybody's skinny. You cannot believe how skinny. Everybody is in
• 1:46:35
  Speaker 25: nineteen sixty nine. And something's happened, Todd, I know what
• 1:46:39
  Speaker 25: it is, but something's out there. Are peal eating that
• 1:46:43
  Speaker 25: much more? I don't know anyway, So keep up the
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 25: good fight and keep trying to eat whole foods. It's
• 1:46:49
  Speaker 25: the only way out. Let's food be thy medicine.
• 1:46:52
  Speaker 3: They say, Look, there was and let's get real, there
• 1:46:55
  Speaker 3: was a time when nobody in the nation was allergic
• 1:46:57
  Speaker 3: to wheat. I don't know where that came from. But
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 3: you know, now, now you know, you've got you know,
• 1:47:03
  Speaker 3: people out there saying, you know that they're allergic to wheat.
• 1:47:06
  Speaker 3: That did not used to be a thing. I think
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 3: you're right, Doug. Back in the in the sixties and
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 3: seventies and really into the eighties, you did not have
• 1:47:14
  Speaker 3: that many overweight people. And you do wonder what exactly
• 1:47:19
  Speaker 3: is going into the food, what is big food doing,
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 3: and what is big pharma doing, and are they in cahoots?
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 3: I mean again, we are the most medicated country on
• 1:47:30
  Speaker 3: the face of the earth, and we're also the most obese.
• 1:47:34
  Speaker 3: So you can't help but wonder if there's a connection
• 1:47:36
  Speaker 3: between the two.
• 1:47:37
  Speaker 25: You know, regardless of if there's a connection, it's a
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 25: it's a conspiracy built on reality. It is reality that
• 1:47:46
  Speaker 25: we are obese. Look around, I've never seen so many
• 1:47:49
  Speaker 25: fat girls, not god, young women. They are so big
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 25: and I don't know, is the best food? I don't know.
• 1:47:57
  Speaker 3: They wrote a song about it, What fat bottomed girl? Yeah,
• 1:48:01
  Speaker 3: it's true, that's true.
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 25: You're doing what we wonderful, wonderful job selling in for
• 1:48:06
  Speaker 25: Rush Limbaugh. By the way, thank you well, you are kind.
• 1:48:09
  Speaker 3: You are kind to say that, Doug, thank you for that.
• 1:48:14
  Speaker 3: One nine o one two six zero five died two six.
• 1:48:18
  Speaker 3: This is the Todd Stern Show. All right, I think
• 1:48:32
  Speaker 3: we can work one more call in. Let's go to
• 1:48:34
  Speaker 3: North Carolina. W S. I c Mary Anne. Hi, Marianne,
• 1:48:38
  Speaker 3: what is on your mind today?
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 5: Hey Codd, it's Marianne. I'm the first grade teacher. And
• 1:48:45
  Speaker 5: I used to tell my first griders. One of the
• 1:48:49
  Speaker 5: things that we did, we've planned well balanced meals. And
• 1:48:53
  Speaker 5: then we went to the grocery store and I told them.
• 1:48:56
  Speaker 5: I trained them how to look at the label and
• 1:48:59
  Speaker 5: if it's it should if it had more than just
• 1:49:02
  Speaker 5: two or three ingredients, they didn't want to buy that.
• 1:49:07
  Speaker 3: Is that right? So you did that as a teachers,
• 1:49:09
  Speaker 3: as a.
• 1:49:09
  Speaker 5: Teacher, as a first grade teacher.
• 1:49:12
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 1:49:13
  Speaker 5: And I took them to the grocery store and we
• 1:49:15
  Speaker 5: thought we studied food group. But one of the main
• 1:49:18
  Speaker 5: things that I wanted to say, you were talking about
• 1:49:20
  Speaker 5: what's in our food? Now you can get there's an
• 1:49:25
  Speaker 5: app that you can get on your phone. It's got
• 1:49:28
  Speaker 5: an acquall sort of bluish background with a white thumbs up,
• 1:49:34
  Speaker 5: an outline of a thumbs up with a white bee
• 1:49:38
  Speaker 5: in the middle of it is called a Bobby app
• 1:49:41
  Speaker 5: and you put that and there's another one that uh
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 5: if a white background with an orange carrot, and that's
• 1:49:48
  Speaker 5: called a yucko why Uka And you both of them
• 1:49:52
  Speaker 5: come with a barcode. And when you go into grocery
• 1:49:56
  Speaker 5: store and even in the in a drug store, now,
• 1:50:02
  Speaker 5: wherever you see a barcode, you can put that barcode
• 1:50:07
  Speaker 5: on that barcode and it tells you what's in it
• 1:50:10
  Speaker 5: and what you do in our food. Now, I mean,
• 1:50:15
  Speaker 5: it's it's that's why people, that's why people are having
• 1:50:19
  Speaker 5: so many dejective problems. Anytime you look at the uh
• 1:50:25
  Speaker 5: of commercial, a lot of commercials are on drugs or
• 1:50:30
  Speaker 5: something that's supposed to help you with your digestive system.
• 1:50:34
  Speaker 5: But then while they're all dancing around, it tells you
• 1:50:38
  Speaker 5: at the bottom that there's a lot of hockey do
• 1:50:40
  Speaker 5: and those two.
• 1:50:42
  Speaker 3: Wow, that's.
• 1:50:44
  Speaker 5: Everybody needs to get that Bobby app and for the
• 1:50:48
  Speaker 5: Yucka app.
• 1:50:49
  Speaker 3: All right, Marian, thank you for the guidance there, and
• 1:50:53
  Speaker 3: we're gonna we're gonna stay on this. This bothers me
• 1:50:57
  Speaker 3: because even if you go into whole foods, whole foods
• 1:51:00
  Speaker 3: they tell you everything in there is healthy, Well it's not.
• 1:51:03
  Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, you start looking many of
• 1:51:05
  Speaker 3: the things that Whole Foods have just as many ingredients
• 1:51:08
  Speaker 3: as the stuff you get over at Kroger. They only
• 1:51:11
  Speaker 3: charge more. So I'm not sure what they We may
• 1:51:14
  Speaker 3: need to look at the definition of organic. I think
• 1:51:17
  Speaker 3: it might mean here comes a sucker, because you're just
• 1:51:20
  Speaker 3: paying more money for the same kind of food, and
• 1:51:23
  Speaker 3: that's just very odd. All right, folks, got to wrap
