- 0:41Speaker 2: this Saturday morning, as somebody was telling me that the
- 0:46Speaker 2: population that is going to be impacted by this winter storm,
- 0:51Speaker 2: and I'm sorry, I'm a curmudgeon. I don't we name hurricanes.
- 0:55Speaker 2: We don't need to name every storm. That's that's something
- 0:59Speaker 2: you're doing to make the news people happy. Don't go
- 1:02Speaker 2: out of your way to create government stuff just to
- 1:05Speaker 2: make newspeople happy. They're going to cover the news whether
- 1:09Speaker 2: you wanted to or not, whether you give it a
- 1:11Speaker 2: cool name. I'm not going to call it her winter
- 1:14Speaker 2: storm Fern. But two hundred and thirty million people live
- 1:21Speaker 2: within the path of this already, you know, inches several
- 1:25Speaker 2: inches snow Oklahoma and coming on up in to Tennessee
- 1:34Speaker 2: and the mid Atlantic. Is that really something we need?
- 1:40Speaker 2: Is an update on Ted Cruz's location. So Ted Cruz
- 1:45Speaker 2: goes to where he was in Venezuela, and they took
- 1:51Speaker 2: pictures of him leaving for Venezuela, saying Texas is gonna be.
- 1:55Speaker 2: What is Ted Cruz supposed to shovel your sidewalk for you?
- 2:00Speaker 2: What is Ted Cruz going to do whether he is
- 2:02Speaker 2: in Texas? This gotcha stuff is just dumber than a
- 2:08Speaker 2: bag of hair. Tennessee already getting snow. Tennessee Department of Transportation,
- 2:16Speaker 2: Interstate forty already with several folks crashing, sixty one thousand
- 2:26Speaker 2: people without electricity in West Texas and north west parts
- 2:33Speaker 2: of Arkansas, as will those in Oklahoma there but already
- 2:38Speaker 2: seeing it. Our friends. I don't know, is nine to
- 2:40Speaker 2: ninety carrying us on Saturday too or is it just
- 2:42Speaker 2: on the weekdays? In Memphis? I know we have new
- 2:46Speaker 2: friends in Memphis and Chattanooga. Tennessee's a beautiful state. West
- 2:54Speaker 2: Virginia is a beautiful state too. Got nobody there unless
- 2:58Speaker 2: you're listening online. All these states, two hundred and thirty
- 3:02Speaker 2: million people in the path of the storm. The brunt
- 3:05Speaker 2: of it is going to be, you know, through the
- 3:08Speaker 2: Illinois Pennsylvania, West Pennsylvania, then upstate New York and into
- 3:12Speaker 2: New England, where we're looking at eighteen to twenty inches
- 3:16Speaker 2: of snow, and then it's going to stay single digit
- 3:19Speaker 2: temperatures all week, which is going to hamper clearing. And
- 3:24Speaker 2: it's an interesting fact I learned from our Virginia Department
- 3:27Speaker 2: of Transportation. Folks. You know all that white stuff that
- 3:30Speaker 2: they spray on the roads in advance of all this.
- 3:34Speaker 2: I mean, it's well and good, and it's got a purpose,
- 3:36Speaker 2: the brine, but it doesn't work when the temperature gets
- 3:40Speaker 2: below I think it's twenty seven degrees is the minimum,
- 3:46Speaker 2: and it just doesn't do it. Including the salt spreading
- 3:50Speaker 2: stuff that's not going to do much if you're under
- 3:53Speaker 2: twenty seven degrees, I believe. Is what they told me
- 3:57Speaker 2: about a year a year and a half ago about
- 3:59Speaker 2: this kind of snow events going on around the country.
- 4:05Speaker 2: There's only three hundred and forty million people in the
- 4:08Speaker 2: whole country, and two hundred and thirty million of them
- 4:10Speaker 2: are facing the storm down. Of course, you come through
- 4:14Speaker 2: the Philadelphia, Washington, New York Amtrak cort or. I guess
- 4:19Speaker 2: that's to be expected. Our first things this morning yes,
- 4:22Speaker 2: the storm is bearing down, already snowing through Tennessee and
- 4:28Speaker 2: Texas and Oklahoma, cars off the side of the Please
- 4:31Speaker 2: be careful where you have to go and hopefully you
- 4:33Speaker 2: were able to get the supplies you need for three,
- 4:36Speaker 2: four or five days of being careful with where you
- 4:39Speaker 2: have to go. And and a side note about driving.
- 4:43Speaker 2: You may feel like you can get where you need
- 4:46Speaker 2: to go, but make sure the people that you're going
- 4:49Speaker 2: to go visit are there too, because if you say, hey,
- 4:52Speaker 2: I need to get out because I need to go
- 4:53Speaker 2: to the store, make sure the store's there because a
- 4:56Speaker 2: lot of these stores are having issues as well. Many

- 5:43Speaker 2: US money. Bureau of Investigations Director Cash Bettel has fired

- 5:58Speaker 2: the Atlanta Field Office and the assistant director in charge
- 6:02Speaker 2: of the New York Field Office. California sued the federal
- 6:07Speaker 2: government Friday for approving a Texas based company's plans to
- 6:11Speaker 2: restart two oil pipelines along the California Pacific coast, escalating
- 6:17Speaker 2: a fight over the administration's removal of regulatory barriers to
- 6:21Speaker 2: offshore oil drilling for the first time in decades. The

- 8:03Speaker 5: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 8:07Speaker 5: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
- 8:13Speaker 5: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 8:18Speaker 5: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 8:22Speaker 5: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 8:26Speaker 5: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 8:31Speaker 5: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 8:36Speaker 5: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 8:42Speaker 5: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 8:46Speaker 5: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
- 8:51Speaker 5: healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com where

- 10:04Speaker 9: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,

- 10:17Speaker 9: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
- 10:21Speaker 9: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
- 10:23Speaker 9: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
- 10:25Speaker 9: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
- 10:29Speaker 9: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
- 10:32Speaker 9: perform life saving work every day.
- 10:34Speaker 2: Dogs keep us.
- 10:35Speaker 1: Safe at airports.
- 10:36Speaker 9: They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from pts.
- 10:39Speaker 9: They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change
- 10:41Speaker 9: in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of
- 10:44Speaker 9: highly trained roles that contribute to society and help those
- 10:47Speaker 9: in need. So please join me an American Humane and

- 13:38Speaker 2: Tom writes in Listening to us on Long Island News radio,
- 13:43Speaker 2: and he says, Joe, I was driving into work when
- 13:47Speaker 2: I heard you tell the glancing story of Richie Blackmore
- 13:53Speaker 2: and your son. You can't just leave it at that, man,
- 13:58Speaker 2: what happened? All right? So my son, you know, we
- 14:03Speaker 2: were working actually here on one oh three point nine
- 14:07Speaker 2: FM at the time. I was the midday host and
- 14:10Speaker 2: taking a lot of phone calls. Just how little has
- 14:13Speaker 2: changed in the intervening Was it now twenty five, twenty nine,
- 14:20Speaker 2: thirty odd years since? So yeah, yeah, he's sitting in
- 14:25Speaker 2: the radio taking phone calls from people. But I was hosting.
- 14:29Speaker 2: I had a regular gig in Port Jeff station call
- 14:33Speaker 2: at a bar called Darren's Port and every Monday night,
- 14:39Speaker 2: and they had a local band come in and they
- 14:42Speaker 2: played at halftime. So it was kind of a rock
- 14:44Speaker 2: and roll Monday night football party back in the era
- 14:47Speaker 2: when those kind of things happened. And January third, I'm
- 14:55Speaker 2: going to make sure the dates are correct because I
- 14:57Speaker 2: don't need some keyboard warrior calling me and saying no
- 15:02Speaker 2: that game. But the New York Giants were playing the
- 15:04Speaker 2: Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night football, and I felt awful.
- 15:08Speaker 2: My wife was home. She was pregnant with our first child.
- 15:12Speaker 2: She was watching Northern Exposure, which we did on Monday nights,
- 15:16Speaker 2: and she called the bar because we didn't have cell
- 15:19Speaker 2: phones back then, and she called the bar and the
- 15:22Speaker 2: owner of the bar said, hey, JT, your wife's water
- 15:26Speaker 2: jets broke sidebar to this is. One of the big
- 15:30Speaker 2: fans of our Monday night football party was Richie Blackmore,
- 15:34Speaker 2: and we used to actually have some fun with it.
- 15:36Speaker 2: We would give attendees of the party a choice, did
- 15:41Speaker 2: you want to do deep purple rainbow trivia or football trivia?
- 15:46Speaker 2: For T shirts and CDs and stuff like that. So
- 15:49Speaker 2: I literally, as I'm leaving the bar, gave all of
- 15:53Speaker 2: our prizes to Richie Blackmore. I think in the Rock
- 15:57Speaker 2: and Roll Hall of Fame, right Richie? By Hey, Richie,
- 16:01Speaker 2: can you give way the rest of these? I got
- 16:04Speaker 2: to get my wife to Stonybrooke Hospital and drove drove.
- 16:10Speaker 2: This was a January third and it was just it
- 16:15Speaker 2: was laughable because here I am handing handing prizes to
- 16:20Speaker 2: a rock and roll legend, saying, hey, can you fill
- 16:22Speaker 2: in for me? Who the hell did I think I was?
- 16:25Speaker 2: You wanted to talk about an ego? So by the
- 16:27Speaker 2: time I leave Stonybrooke Hospital on Long Island, with my
- 16:32Speaker 2: son in tow and my in laws in tow and
- 16:35Speaker 2: my wife still loving me, my son had been born,
- 16:39Speaker 2: and I had this moment that I don't think I
- 16:43Speaker 2: could do the same thing where I just toss my
- 16:45Speaker 2: gear to some rock and roll Hall of famer say hey, Richie,
- 16:49Speaker 2: can you finish doing the giveaways for me? Because when
- 16:54Speaker 2: my son was born, I heard this voice in my
- 16:56Speaker 2: head saying son sounded like you know, sounded like southern rocker. Son.
- 17:09Speaker 2: You are no longer the center of the universe. And
- 17:14Speaker 2: so I don't know. When I left that bar, I
- 17:17Speaker 2: was the center of the universe. I was big rock
- 17:19Speaker 2: and roll DJ bar full of people all waiting for
- 17:23Speaker 2: me to give away T shirts and CDs, hanging out
- 17:26Speaker 2: with Richie Blackmore and watching you know, an FL football
- 17:30Speaker 2: back when that was the thing. And if you're young enough,
- 17:32Speaker 2: you're sitting there saying hold it. People used to go
- 17:35Speaker 2: out to bars to watch Monday night football. Yes, yes,
- 17:40Speaker 2: that used to be big business for pubs, bars, you
- 17:45Speaker 2: name it. It was at the boom of the sports
- 17:50Speaker 2: sports bar industry. Anyway, So you asked Tom, there you go.
- 17:55Speaker 2: That's the backstory on Richie blackmore onwards into today's avails.
- 18:01Speaker 2: And again, the weather system that is bringing all this snow,
- 18:05Speaker 2: I'm not naming her, is already putting snow down, deep
- 18:11Speaker 2: snow accumulating through Tennessee on its way to the mid
- 18:15Speaker 2: Atlantic and then on its way out to drop like
- 18:18Speaker 2: a foot and a half of snow on Massachusetts and
- 18:21Speaker 2: New England. But the cold is the thing that you
- 18:26Speaker 2: have to watch out for. And I want to go
- 18:28Speaker 2: back to Governor Newsom statement, we need to democratize our economy.
- 18:35Speaker 2: Gavin wants to take what Lyndon Johnson started with the
- 18:40Speaker 2: Great Society and redouble those efforts. Take more money out
- 18:46Speaker 2: of the economy, put it in the hands of bureaucrats
- 18:49Speaker 2: who really don't care except about making the quota of
- 18:53Speaker 2: whatever it is that their boss says they have to meet.
- 18:58Speaker 2: And this there's a phrase scientism. Have you ever heard
- 19:03Speaker 2: the phrase scientism? I frequently used on this program in
- 19:08Speaker 2: conjunction with doctor Robert Malone, the mRNA doctor who quotes
- 19:13Speaker 2: and talks about it all the time in his work.
- 19:16Speaker 2: Scientism is science gone backwards, where you start with an
- 19:22Speaker 2: answer and then try to find a question that fulfills
- 19:27Speaker 2: that answer, and economically speaking, this is what Gavin Newsom
- 19:34Speaker 2: is trying to do. It's economic scientism or maybe even
- 19:40Speaker 2: political scientism. So you give the government an answer. We
- 19:45Speaker 2: want these people off the streets. California, we just had
- 19:48Speaker 2: a speaking of a Philadelphia Eagles Philadelphia Eagles star stabbed
- 19:53Speaker 2: to death in a homeless encampment fifty five years old,
- 19:59Speaker 2: a reminder of you know NFL stands for not for
- 20:02Speaker 2: Long Right, but stabbed to death in a homeless encampment
- 20:07Speaker 2: in Los Angeles. Where California's homeless population is exploding and
- 20:14Speaker 2: the inability to find housing. All of this becomes acute
- 20:22Speaker 2: because of all the political scientism that has gone along
- 20:26Speaker 2: with these politicians standing behind podiums saying we must do
- 20:31Speaker 2: something about this so it never happens again. It's a
- 20:35Speaker 2: phrase you need to run to the hills from and
- 20:40Speaker 2: each time they do it, they pass some legislation that
- 20:43Speaker 2: adds to this density of law that has created this
- 20:47Speaker 2: black hole of justice where you can't go find a
- 20:51Speaker 2: job that pays you enough because they won't let the
- 20:53Speaker 2: houses be built because some campaign contributor lives in the
- 21:01Speaker 2: neighborhood where they might build some houses. So now they
- 21:04Speaker 2: want to regulate it. A law here in Virginia will
- 21:07Speaker 2: give the state the ability to tax I'm sorry, the
- 21:11Speaker 2: state's going to give your county the ability to tax
- 21:18Speaker 2: your property at whatever rate they see fit based on
- 21:22Speaker 2: what you do with it. So if you have private
- 21:23Speaker 2: property and you want to sell it to a data center,
- 21:27Speaker 2: they're going to tax you more on that. If you
- 21:29Speaker 2: try to build affordable housing on it, they're going to
- 21:32Speaker 2: stop you. I've watched it happen so many times in
- 21:37Speaker 2: these in these do good or enclaves where they say
- 21:41Speaker 2: we want a formal housing and then somebody says, hey,
- 21:43Speaker 2: I bought a plot of land at the end of
- 21:46Speaker 2: the street that I'm going to build an apartment complex
- 21:48Speaker 2: on and they find some arcane piece of city code.
- 21:53Speaker 2: I'm sorry, zoning and water use ordinance for twelve dash twosction.
- 22:00Speaker 18: Gee, hey guys, I'm Teddy Savage. National League Training for
- 22:04Speaker 18: Planet Fitness, and the American Heart Association recommends that we
- 22:07Speaker 18: all get at least one hundred and fifty minutes of
- 22:10Speaker 18: moderate aerobic activity in a week's time. But here's the
- 22:13Speaker 18: thing that one hundred and fifty minutes does not need

- 24:36Speaker 5: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 24:42Speaker 5: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 24:46Speaker 5: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

- 28:14Speaker 1: We could tell you what six seven hands, where's the funding?
- 28:17Speaker 1: That first thing? Today? By Joe Thomas on the Tunk
- 28:21Speaker 1: Media Network Doctor Doctor did the news.
- 28:24Speaker 3: I gottas loving you.
- 28:35Speaker 2: This email I'm sorry. Text message comes in from Sherry,
- 28:39Speaker 2: who says, did I hear you earlier this week claim
- 28:43Speaker 2: that an unwanted pregnancy is just a bad case of
- 28:48Speaker 2: loving you laughed my butt off when I heard it.
- 28:52Speaker 2: But with the March for Life today, how do you
- 28:55Speaker 2: feel about, you know, telling people that they shouldn't have
- 28:59Speaker 2: an abortion if they get pregnant unintendedly. Well, see that's
- 29:07Speaker 2: how and this becomes really a nuanced thing. And I
- 29:10Speaker 2: don't want to bore people with it. And I'm not
- 29:13Speaker 2: going to try to play Sunrise sermonet. But to me,
- 29:20Speaker 2: the way you beat abortion, the dehumanizing, heartless killing of
- 29:26Speaker 2: a baby, is you teach the parents, the biological pair
- 29:33Speaker 2: that's going to make this baby, how to be more
- 29:38Speaker 2: judicious about how you get there. Because it's heartbreaking to
- 29:48Speaker 2: me to live in a world where the phrase unwanted
- 29:51Speaker 2: pregnancy exists in the language. Doesn't it doesn't it bother you?
- 30:01Speaker 2: Doesn't it bother you to live in a world where
- 30:04Speaker 2: there's such a commonplace existence of something called an unwanted pregnancy.
- 30:12Speaker 2: I mean, you were sort of telling the story, and
- 30:14Speaker 2: maybe that's what triggered you I don't know to it
- 30:17Speaker 2: of the my child and the birth complete with all
- 30:25Speaker 2: the people calling. The radio station stands everyone all right,
- 30:28Speaker 2: the radio station vans at the hospital because I mean,
- 30:33Speaker 2: you just gotta go. You get to go, bag and
- 30:35Speaker 2: you go. And by the way, that kid is now
- 30:42Speaker 2: doing all our the management of our YouTube channel, Joe
- 30:47Speaker 2: Thomas in America, and he still looks at me with
- 30:52Speaker 2: his eyes open. What what's with that? But just the
- 30:57Speaker 2: idea that there is such a thing as an unwanted pregnancy,
- 31:02Speaker 2: That's what I want to be on a campaign to stop.
- 31:05Speaker 2: I don't want the law to stop it. I want
- 31:10Speaker 2: our humanity to stop the idea that you know, And
- 31:13Speaker 2: there are groups that have proven my point. Adjunct to
- 31:18Speaker 2: some of the crisis pregnancy centers in America is a
- 31:23Speaker 2: group called Worth Your Weight. They go into schools and
- 31:27Speaker 2: they're twenty somethings, recent college kids, and they get in
- 31:31Speaker 2: trouble because they are theologically based in their ministrations. So
- 31:37Speaker 2: there'll always be some hater come out of the basement
- 31:41Speaker 2: and say it's a separation of church from state, nonsensically,
- 31:50Speaker 2: but they do it because it works, and they go
- 32:01Speaker 2: into high schools and work with mostly girls, but they
- 32:05Speaker 2: try to get as many boys involved as well, to
- 32:08Speaker 2: understand that thinking you will gain social status by sleeping
- 32:15Speaker 2: with somebody is selling your future out because the pain
- 32:25Speaker 2: and the suffering that goes on in the hearts of
- 32:29Speaker 2: girls who commit abortion, and each time it's like a
- 32:34Speaker 2: rending of your soul, little bits, little bits, all the
- 32:39Speaker 2: way down the line. And they do this work, and
- 32:50Speaker 2: it works because the people go through these programs like
- 32:53Speaker 2: Worth your Weight wind up not having unintended, unwanted pregnancy,
- 33:03Speaker 2: but they also have their grade point averages go up
- 33:06Speaker 2: by an average, an average one full point because of
- 33:11Speaker 2: the self esteem it engenders in you. The self worth
- 33:19Speaker 2: that people get transfers into other things. It's an amazing group.
- 33:24Speaker 2: And that's how I want to fight abortion. I don't
- 33:27Speaker 2: want to just make it legal or illegal. Trey Goudy
- 33:29Speaker 2: was on I can't necessarily call it TV anymore. He
- 33:35Speaker 2: was on one of the channels who's he worker, was
- 33:37Speaker 2: it Fox? But he was doing his commentary show and
- 33:40Speaker 2: he was talking about how most states, when given the choice,
- 33:43Speaker 2: pass some sort of protection for the institution of abortion.
- 33:49Speaker 2: Certainly not what Virginia is about to do, where it
- 33:52Speaker 2: would be right up to the moment of birth. It
- 33:57Speaker 2: is the March for life today and you know, thank
- 34:00Speaker 2: God for the weather change. Father Frank Pavone visited with us.
- 34:05Speaker 2: I had an opportunity to no, that's not father, that's
- 34:09Speaker 2: Mac at the at the golf show. Do we not
- 34:12Speaker 2: have the clip? I had a father Frank set aside
- 34:15Speaker 2: there somewhere.
- 34:16Speaker 1: Oh, most definitely.
- 34:17Speaker 24: And you know the attitude is, you know, when you
- 34:19Speaker 24: ask President Trump as you know, you know you left
- 34:22Speaker 24: or right, you know, liberal conservatives, he says, I'm common
- 34:25Speaker 24: sense and I believe Joe that that's what drives him
- 34:29Speaker 24: to support the events of these next couple of days.
- 34:32Speaker 24: He will be he taped an address that will be
- 34:34Speaker 24: they be shown in the march.
- 34:37Speaker 2: Common sense.
- 34:38Speaker 24: I mean, we're talking about the killing of babies, and
- 34:40Speaker 24: it's like, come on, you know, no matter what position
- 34:43Speaker 24: you have on anything, how.
- 34:44Speaker 2: Can that ever be justified?
- 34:46Speaker 24: So so common sense is what brings people out to
- 34:50Speaker 24: these events over these next couple of days. And you know,
- 34:54Speaker 24: as far as what we experience a priest for life,
- 34:57Speaker 24: the shift is palpable in the sense that you know,
- 35:00Speaker 24: people have been energized by the reversal of Roe v Wade.
- 35:04Speaker 24: We continue to march because although Roe is gone, abortion
- 35:08Speaker 24: isn't gone, right and and and we have to we
- 35:11Speaker 24: have to continue advancing protection. We're actually organizing six events,
- 35:16Speaker 24: four in Washington tomorrow and Friday, and then two in
- 35:20Speaker 24: San Francisco. And I want to invite our listeners, anyone
- 35:23Speaker 24: who's going to be anywhere near these events, go to
- 35:26Speaker 24: prolifemarch dot org. You're gonna see we're gonna have a
- 35:29Speaker 24: big prayer service at plan in front of Planned Parenthood
- 35:33Speaker 24: tomorrow morning.
- 35:34Speaker 2: And while you can, because Virginia is gonna outlaw those
- 35:37Speaker 2: kind of things, Father Frank peacefully gathering and you know,
- 35:41Speaker 2: and they're not every state has a March for life.
- 35:44Speaker 2: I was surprised by some of them. Texas, Florida and
- 35:47Speaker 2: maybe you feel like, you know, the ships sailed, uh there,
- 35:50Speaker 2: We've got folks standing up for it. But it is
- 35:54Speaker 2: it is the most important thing. I believe our soul
- 35:58Speaker 2: needs to be healed. And when jad Advance says to
- 36:01Speaker 2: the crowd yesterday that they're in expanding the Mexico City Policy,
- 36:05Speaker 2: which restricts federal funding for these NGOs that pay for abortion,
- 36:14Speaker 2: you know there's going to be the countersuit. And this
- 36:16Speaker 2: is you know, people say, well, why bother then if
- 36:19Speaker 2: there's just going to be a countersuit, and then it
- 36:21Speaker 2: gives them the platform. The newspeople will cover it, President Trump,
- 36:26Speaker 2: if nothing else. What they do is they go out
- 36:28Speaker 2: to drag these people out of the shadows. It's on
- 36:33Speaker 2: us to, you know, realize who they are. But one
- 36:36Speaker 2: of the things that not so much the first administration,
- 36:39Speaker 2: they try to but this this first year. Remember we're
- 36:43Speaker 2: only just beginning the second year of the Trump administration
- 36:47Speaker 2: version two. One of the great things they do is
- 36:51Speaker 2: they drag these hidden actors out into the spotlight so
- 36:57Speaker 2: you can see them for who they are, whether it
- 37:00Speaker 2: be Hamas and Iran Maduro on an international scale or
- 37:08Speaker 2: just locally. When they drag these abortionists out to file
- 37:13Speaker 2: lawsuits against them saying I have a right to other
- 37:16Speaker 2: people's money, and they say it. And President Trump does
- 37:21Speaker 2: the margins much differently than the left does. The left
- 37:25Speaker 2: just does a bludgeon rifola kind of approach to it
- 37:29Speaker 2: will just hit you with everything all the time. President
- 37:32Speaker 2: Trump will get out there and he'll drag somebody out
- 37:35Speaker 2: into the spotlight, into the glaring sunlight, and say, look
- 37:38Speaker 2: at this festering mess. You want to vote for that?
- 37:41Speaker 2: And it's all about winning that one or two percent
- 37:44Speaker 2: over that are in the middle, not sure, busy, they
- 37:48Speaker 2: don't read as much. They get the headline. And that's
- 37:52Speaker 2: where President Trump, if he's going to survive the mid
- 37:54Speaker 2: terms with the majority in Congress, has got to keep
- 37:57Speaker 2: dragging these people out into the sunlight.

- 38:17Speaker 10: of Americans are unaware of this fact, according to a
- 38:20Speaker 10: recent Harris Pole survey conducted for the American Heart Association. However,

- 44:11Speaker 1: News and Analysis Now without Artificial colors. First Thing Today
- 44:16Speaker 1: by Joe Thomas on the Talk media network.
- 44:21Speaker 25: He's in that hed.
- 44:29Speaker 2: Every thread.
- 44:29Speaker 13: Yeah, that's pretty remarkable. So I've learned that Homeland Security
- 44:32Speaker 13: officials have come to FEMA staff and told them to
- 44:36Speaker 13: limit the use of the word ice in their public
- 44:40Speaker 13: messaging and post social media posts when talking about the storm.
- 44:44Speaker 13: The concern is obviously the connection between the immigration enforcement
- 44:49Speaker 13: that's happenings happening across the country, particularly in Minnesota, and
- 44:53Speaker 13: what they are worried about here is that by posting
- 44:56Speaker 13: something like watch out for the Ice, that it's going
- 44:59Speaker 13: to become an opportunity for a meme, for Internet fodder,
- 45:02Speaker 13: for a public ridicule against the Department of Homeland Security.
- 45:06Speaker 13: So they're asking FEMA staff if he can, don't use
- 45:09Speaker 13: the word ice, try to use the term freezing rain.
- 45:13Speaker 2: Jake Tapper working on his next Mayakulpa book, apparently in
- 45:17Speaker 2: front of tens upon tens of people who still watch
- 45:21Speaker 2: the cable news Networth or just the most ridiculous report,
- 45:27Speaker 2: and you know they were just at some point just say,
- 45:31Speaker 2: we're just making this stuff up. That's Gabe Cohen telling
- 45:37Speaker 2: Jake Tapper about what he's heard. I guess in the
- 45:41Speaker 2: bathroom at CNN in Atlanta. Part of the.
- 45:44Speaker 13: Problem here as I talk to agency officials about this
- 45:48Speaker 13: is there saying what we're talking about is ice. What
- 45:51Speaker 13: we're talking about is saving lives.
- 45:52Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 45:52Speaker 26: No, when you say freezing rain, that makes me think, oh,
- 45:54Speaker 26: I'll put on a raincoat.
- 45:55Speaker 2: It doesn't make me think ice.
- 45:57Speaker 13: Right, And what we're largely talking about not a forecaster,
- 46:00Speaker 13: but this is largely an ice event. And a lot
- 46:02Speaker 13: of states that I've talked to are saying what we're
- 46:04Speaker 13: preparing for is destructive ice that could damage power ridge,
- 46:09Speaker 13: so preak havoc on roads.
- 46:11Speaker 2: And you sure this is like weekend update on Saturday
- 46:14Speaker 2: Night Line.
- 46:15Speaker 13: He is saying, please try to avoid using that word.
- 46:17Speaker 20: Because they're afraid of memes.
- 46:19Speaker 2: Meanwhile, lives are on the line. Meanwhile, it's not true
- 46:22Speaker 2: and there's no proof to it. It's just the guy
- 46:24Speaker 2: who's saying, you know, hey, I'll get I get a
- 46:27Speaker 2: couple of minutes. You know, that's what we should be doing.
- 46:30Speaker 2: Just make myself available if you want somebody to come
- 46:32Speaker 2: on your network TV show.
- 46:35Speaker 22: And just say crazy stuff, like you know, it's like
- 46:39Speaker 22: Bob and Ray. Just it's Wally Bulo here at FEMA headquarters.
- 46:50Speaker 2: And he please google Bob and Ray. Most of you
- 46:54Speaker 2: know who Chris Elliott is. His dad was funny too,
- 46:58Speaker 2: uh maybe fun five comparatively, I mean, Chris, now you know,
- 47:03Speaker 2: you know the show he's done with Eugene Levy is
- 47:08Speaker 2: worth it. And and finally I said this to my
- 47:11Speaker 2: wife the other day, I said, I feel good for
- 47:13Speaker 2: Chris Elliott. He's done. He did some funny writing for
- 47:15Speaker 2: David Letterman in the day. And this show, which we
- 47:19Speaker 2: won't mention the name of for the obvious reasons. If
- 47:22Speaker 2: you don't know it, look it up with Eugene Levy
- 47:26Speaker 2: and his son, and it is is worthy of Bob
- 47:31Speaker 2: and Ray. I could see Wally Blue interviewing Roland from
- 47:38Speaker 2: the town that bears his last name, Wally below here.
- 47:44Speaker 4: Deep Creek visiting.
- 47:47Speaker 2: With Roland Peep. So you know this just for a
- 47:56Speaker 2: chuckle before we leave. Jake Tapper working on his next
- 48:00Speaker 2: Akulpa book, you know, and it must have sold well
- 48:04Speaker 2: enough where he's like, you know what, let's just do
- 48:06Speaker 2: it some more and make up more stuff as we
- 48:09Speaker 2: go along. Here this is President Trump's address to the
- 48:14Speaker 2: March for Life. I guess that was delivered yesterday the
- 48:18Speaker 2: march continuing today.
- 48:20Speaker 27: Have come to Washington from every corner of the country
- 48:23Speaker 27: to defend the infinite worth and God given dignity of
- 48:27Speaker 27: every human life. In twenty twenty six, as we celebrate
- 48:31Speaker 27: two hundred and fifty years since our founding fathers recognized
- 48:35Speaker 27: the right to life in our declaration of Independence, I
- 48:40Speaker 27: want to thank every single one of you who was
- 48:42Speaker 27: out on this winter day, a beautiful day, but it's winter, nevertheless,
- 48:46Speaker 27: to stand up for the unborn. Six years ago I
- 48:50Speaker 27: was proud to be the first president in history to
- 48:53Speaker 27: attend this march in person. Since then, we have made
- 48:57Speaker 27: unprecedented strives to protect what is it life and support
- 49:01Speaker 27: the institution of the family like never before. There's never
- 49:05Speaker 27: been anything like it.
- 49:07Speaker 2: And as I said, one of the gifts President Trump
- 49:10Speaker 2: in this as I said in the last segment, is
- 49:13Speaker 2: he drags these shadowy figures out into the sunlight, even
- 49:19Speaker 2: the waning sunlight, before the ice starts to come down
- 49:23Speaker 2: from the sky. Jake's dumb as a pack of hair
- 49:27Speaker 2: if he had any pair left, And the frigid coldness
- 49:38Speaker 2: of the hearts of those who say I just and
- 49:41Speaker 2: bless Abigail Spanberger so far far down this road she
- 49:46Speaker 2: has lost the compunction to try to pretend it's anything
- 49:49Speaker 2: more than reproductive freedom. This is why I was the
- 49:55Speaker 2: email we got last segment Tina talking about Robert Palmer's
- 50:00Speaker 2: song Bad Case of Loving You, because Abigail Spanberger, the
- 50:03Speaker 2: governor here in Virginia, has admitted in her first address
- 50:08Speaker 2: to the General Assembly that this is all about being
- 50:11Speaker 2: able to have conjugal visits with one another without having
- 50:15Speaker 2: to worry about the biological It's not even a biological imperative.
- 50:20Speaker 2: I mean the amount of times that Congress is engaged
- 50:27Speaker 2: in to use the phrase from the Kama Sutra, and
- 50:31Speaker 2: I love the irony, and Father Frank and I even
- 50:35Speaker 2: talked about that. Did you ever think you would see
- 50:38Speaker 2: a day where something as inhumane as this was going
- 50:42Speaker 2: to become law if we're not careful?
- 50:46Speaker 13: Well, we warned for many years.
- 50:48Speaker 24: That this was the core of the so called pro
- 50:52Speaker 24: choice philosophy. Now there's a lot of very good citizens
- 50:56Speaker 24: out there that say, hey, I'm not for this. I
- 50:58Speaker 24: consider myself choice. I think abortion should be allowed in
- 51:01Speaker 24: certain instances. You know, most people will say something like that,
- 51:05Speaker 24: But if you follow pro choice to its logical conclusion.
- 51:09Speaker 24: What it's starting with is the idea that choice overrides
- 51:12Speaker 24: life itself, innocent life of baby's life, that can never
- 51:17Speaker 24: be permitted, because once you break that principle a little bit,
- 51:21Speaker 24: you've broken it entirely.
- 51:23Speaker 2: Brilliant Priestsfolife dot Org. Father Frank graced us with his
- 51:27Speaker 2: visit coming up on the March for Life. Obviously busy
- 51:31Speaker 2: right now with the March for Life going on, but
- 51:36Speaker 2: you fight it by making sure you realize what the
- 51:39Speaker 2: great gift is and how rare, you know, how miraculous
- 51:42Speaker 2: it is that any instance of engaging in congress actually
- 51:51Speaker 2: ultimately results in a pregnancy being started. It's it's even
- 51:58Speaker 2: redoubly a mirror. And tell that story to people, and
- 52:03Speaker 2: tell people that you don't need to just do it
- 52:05Speaker 2: because it'll make you popular or the football star will
- 52:09Speaker 2: take you to the prom, or any of these other
- 52:12Speaker 2: reasons that people you know engage, and it's I'm not
- 52:18Speaker 2: lying to you, and tell you it's not fun. It's
- 52:22Speaker 2: a whole lot more fun than engaging in the other
- 52:25Speaker 2: kind of congress. But you have to be honest about it.
- 52:30Speaker 2: And that's one of the things President Trump does is
- 52:32Speaker 2: he drags these people out into the sunlight so you
- 52:35Speaker 2: can see it and you don't have to fear having
- 52:38Speaker 2: the conversation anyway. I appreciate your joining us on this
- 52:41Speaker 2: Saturday morning, and we'll be back again Monday morning, in
- 52:45Speaker 2: and amongst the snow. Please stay safe. I'm Joe Thomas,
- 52:48Speaker 2: so long and thanks for all the fish.
- 52:51Speaker 10: Much of neck and spinal pain is caused by the
- 52:53Speaker 10: compression of spinal nerves. According to doctor Jeff Fisher, an Irvine,
- 52:57Speaker 10: California based chiropractor with more than thirty years of experience,
- 53:01Speaker 10: this compression can stem from a chronic condition, acute injury,
- 53:05Speaker 10: or simply aging. Traction is the most effective way to relax, stretch,
- 53:09Speaker 10: and decompress the spine and surrounding muscles and ligaments of
- 53:12Speaker 10: the neck and back. Doctor Fisher explains his inventions. The
- 53:16Speaker 10: Fisher Traction Neck Device and Fisher Traction Low Back Device
- 53:20Speaker 10: safely separates bones to eliminate pain and restore function so
- 53:24Speaker 10: the body can heal naturally. The Fisher Traction devices are
- 53:27Speaker 10: designed to restore the natural curves of the neck and
- 53:30Speaker 10: back and gently induce hydration and motion into the spine
- 53:33Speaker 10: with the use of a release strap. The devices are
- 53:36Speaker 10: convenient and easy to use in the comfort of your
- 53:38Speaker 10: home and Doctor Fisher's series of YouTube videos provides helpful
- 53:41Speaker 10: videos and detailed instructions. For more information, visit Fishertraction dot
