- 0:19and Scott Moskowitz. Hey, from Smokey, North
- 0:26Idaho. Still Smokey? It's No ID, Idaho's mainstream
- 0:30narrative deconstruction. I'm Scott. Hello internet,
- 0:34I'm Paul. It is pretty smoky. I don't notice
- 0:37much of a difference though because I spent 12
- 0:39years working in a smoky environment So it's
- 0:41just like home slash work par for the course
- 0:44for prison Paul. Actually, it probably smells
- 0:46right My dad was smoking chicken and he was like
- 0:49I couldn't he's like normally I can you know
- 0:51The smell of it when they're when they're going
- 0:53it's wafting toward the house and I'm smelling
- 0:55it this time I didn't even know they were there
- 0:57Yeah, well your black and has been seasoned with
- 1:01the with a little bit of a Spokane spice to it
- 1:04It's wafted on over man, and that's you know
- 1:07we don't mean to make light of course like Spokane's
- 1:09on fire. Yeah Yeah, no kidding and it's they're
- 1:12still active fires and but then these are the
- 1:14the story still completely dominating the mainstream
- 1:17media At this juncture at this hour is the fires
- 1:22and the in -and -out shooting still just from
- 1:24last we know we did a lot of it last week and
- 1:26but this is still just blanketing the media there's
- 1:29like you know sort of different spins on it now
- 1:31it's like all people are going back to the neighborhoods
- 1:33because they're the evacuation orders have been
- 1:35lifted and now they at the mainstream is starting
- 1:38to wring its hands about the civilians with the
- 1:41firearms and how that was actually really dangerous
- 1:42and bad so there are different angles on those
- 1:45same stories but it is the same stories People
- 1:49returning to their homes while being armed bad
- 1:53Yes media spoken nights were seen shooting at
- 1:56the fire and we here in the media just want to
- 1:58let them know they're not gonna do anything sponsored
- 2:02by Smith and Wesson. Let's just start with that,
- 2:05yeah. For many neighbors here near Indian Trail
- 2:07Road, this is the first time that they've been
- 2:09able to come back to this neighborhood since
- 2:11the Spokane Complex fires broke out over a week
- 2:14ago. Now, evacuation orders for a majority of
- 2:17the affected areas have been downgraded now that
- 2:19all the fires have at least 50 % containment.
- 2:22Throughout our time here in the neighborhood,
- 2:23we've seen firefighting crews mopping up the
- 2:26neighborhood, Vista crews coming through to make
- 2:28sure gas is turned on for folks, as well as law
- 2:31enforcement. and even patrolling the neighborhood
- 2:32for those families who haven't made it back just
- 2:35yet. Now, neighbors that have returned have been
- 2:37checking on each other and making sure that everyone
- 2:40has what they need, hugging each other. It's
- 2:42been really, really beautiful to see this community
- 2:44come together. Now, we did have a chance to speak
- 2:46with one person, Tricia Lord, who got back today
- 2:49at 6 .30 this morning. She explained to me what
- 2:52it was like to come back and see her house still
- 2:54standing after over a week. Now, before we hear
- 2:57from that lady, I just want to thank God I'm
- 2:59not them. I have to wonder why. Yeah, go ahead.
- 3:06That's how she's feeling. Thank God it wasn't
- 3:08us. Oh, boy, that could have been me. There,
- 3:11but by the grace of God. I'm just wondering why
- 3:14the mainstream is encouraging. You know, they
- 3:16were like, oh, they're the neighbors are hugging
- 3:18each other. Don't they know that you can have
- 3:20it and not know it? Why are you hugging? You
- 3:23too could have the fire and not know that you're
- 3:26spreading it. It's a good thing they got law
- 3:27enforcement there, though, to really Stomp out
- 3:31any rebellious fires that might come back. I
- 3:34knew I was certain certain the house would be
- 3:37gone the way the wind was moving and Yeah, of
- 3:40course. It's just terrifying. I have people that
- 3:42I love in this neighborhood and I care about
- 3:43and some of my friends hence the hugging, you
- 3:47know, my dog walking friend lost her house and
- 3:50You know, it's hard to see I feel so fortunate
- 3:54Other neighbors here in the area say they actually
- 3:57helped fight the fire until 1 AM the day that
- 4:00it broke out and jumped the river. Now overall
- 4:02across all three fires, 9944 acres have burned
- 4:07in total and the fires have affected a combined
- 4:10921 structures. Now everyone I've had the chance
- 4:13to speak with today say that they're grateful
- 4:15not just for each other, but for the first responders
- 4:17who helped save their homes and their neighborhoods
- 4:20altogether here in Spokane County. Christian
- 4:23Garza. So you know who's going to have a heyday
- 4:27this next election cycle or maybe in February
- 4:31because typically it seems like February and
- 4:32March and May is when they like to float the
- 4:34levies. Ten dollars says next, I don't know,
- 4:39February, March, April, May, the any and all
- 4:43of the firefighting departments in the Spokane
- 4:45area float a levy and they can ask for any amount
- 4:50of money they want and they will get it. and
- 4:52the voters will vote. 95 to 1. Yes, take all
- 4:57of more of our Schmeckles. It's only $60 more
- 5:00per 100 ,000 of taxable property value we have.
- 5:04Without you, society would collapse. Take all
- 5:06our Schmeckles. So what are the odds, Scott?
- 5:09What do you think? I'm betting 10 bucks on that.
- 5:12We're going to see a levy next spring. It's going
- 5:14to pass overwhelmingly, and it's going to be
- 5:15the biggest one ever. I mean, it's... going to
- 5:18be a boring response from me, but we can't bet
- 5:21against each other if we both think the same
- 5:23outcome. You know, I don't want to lay the same
- 5:25wager you are. Who's going to bet against us?
- 5:27I guess we could we could do like the over under
- 5:30on how much they're going to ask for. Now that
- 5:32would be million. Yeah. Twenty five million.
- 5:35You know, two million. I would say five. Dude.
- 5:38Might be a good number to pick. Five is a good
- 5:40number. I'm going to take I'm going to take the
- 5:42over. They're going to ask for seven and a half
- 5:45for ten bucks. Yeah, you're on. I'll take that
- 5:48bet. Yeah. All right. Shake hands. So we're going
- 5:51to do the next best thing. It is official. The
- 5:54bell has rung. I have a cup. But if they don't
- 5:58float a levy at all next year, we both lose.
- 6:01Who's going to pay? Yeah, I guess we'll put money
- 6:04in our own checking account from our personal
- 6:06checking accounts. Makes sense to me. I tell
- 6:09you what, we'll each donate five fifty five.
- 6:11Five fifty five for the fire. Five five five.
- 6:15Five, five, five, five, five, five, five. I have
- 6:19a five million dollar grant clip that Boise is
- 6:23seeking to quote, boost mental health and homeless.
- 6:27Wait, what is it? Boost mental health and homeless.
- 6:29Oh, services. Yes, services. We'll get to that.
- 6:32I also have ISP not having enough. people applying
- 6:37to be troopers on account of they need more money
- 6:39so there's going to be a bond there so i don't
- 6:42even know where to begin with related stories
- 6:44and uh you know everybody of course needing money
- 6:48i need money here is governor before we get off
- 6:54of the uh the follow -up to the fires here i
- 6:56got one more and this is the classic um you know
- 7:00government burrito supreme leaders getting up
- 7:03in front of podiums and saying how we're going
- 7:06to cut red tape and we're gonna make it so quick
- 7:09and easy for you people to rebuild which then
- 7:11of course leads to the question of well what
- 7:13do you so in other words you're you're hamstringing
- 7:16and are making everything expensive and difficult
- 7:17for people normally and but you're promising
- 7:19you're not gonna do that sort of for a little
- 7:22while but then you do anyway but here's Governor,
- 7:25whoever the hell is the current governor of Washington,
- 7:27Ferguson. Governor Bob Ferguson signed an emergency
- 7:29declaration today aimed at helping cocaine rebuild
- 7:32faster. William Pitts is at City Hall. That's
- 7:34like you assholes. There is an emergency. Yeah,
- 7:36I know. But they declare emergencies. Did they
- 7:39ever even lift the state of emergency from the
- 7:42pandemic era? It's probably still in effect.
- 7:45Faster. William Pitts is at City Hall tonight
- 7:47where the governor gave an update on the city's
- 7:49rebuilding process. The recovery is going to
- 7:52take months, maybe longer. But now that some
- 7:54people are being allowed back into some parts
- 7:56of the fire area, the governor says it's time
- 7:59to focus on how to make that recovery faster
- 8:01and better. The governor signed an emergency
- 8:03declaration that eases some rules and regulations,
- 8:06things like making it easier to get a new driver's
- 8:08license certificate, waiving penalties. It's
- 8:10almost like they know we want to make this easier.
- 8:13So we're going to ease off of you. That's just
- 8:17this one time. Sort of emergency. We're going
- 8:20to kind of loosen the noose just slightly. Let's
- 8:24hear how it always makes me think of a comic
- 8:26I watch that I've got stored away on my computer
- 8:29somewhere where the government's on the one side
- 8:31and a person's on the other side and the government
- 8:33goes, here you go, citizen. Here's some rights.
- 8:36And the citizens like, oh, gee, thanks, government.
- 8:39Wait, wait a minute. These were always mine to
- 8:41begin with. the government goes what's that he
- 8:44goes yeah yeah these were mine to begin with
- 8:45why did you take them and the government goes
- 8:48you talk to me like that again and i'll take
- 8:49them all back the citizen goes oh no no okay
- 8:53i didn't mean it i'll i'll keep these for now
- 8:56freedom yeah The governor signed an emergency
- 8:59declaration that eases some rules and regulations,
- 9:02things like making it easier to get a new driver's
- 9:04license and birth certificate, waiving penalties
- 9:06for late taxes and business licenses. Reflect
- 9:10on that one for a minute. Nothing's going to
- 9:13change about how much we're confiscating, but
- 9:15we won't charge you extra if you're a little
- 9:18bit late coughing it up, citizen. Good news.
- 9:22We'll make it easier for you to pay. Thank you
- 9:27so very deeply. Waving penalties for late taxes
- 9:30and business licenses. It also waives some regulations
- 9:33that the governor hopes will make it easier for
- 9:34hospitals to set up shop in the area faster.
- 9:37When it comes to insurance, there's already an
- 9:39order from the state commissioner that prevents
- 9:41insurance companies from canceling policies in
- 9:43some cases until the end of September. But as
- 9:46we've seen with so many fires in places like
- 9:48California, the concern is what happens after
- 9:50that, and if insurance companies will refuse
- 9:52to cover certain areas or make wildfire coverage
- 9:55prohibitively expensive. It's always a concern
- 9:58whenever you have... Wait, sorry for the... You
- 10:00know what? I can't even listen to that. I'm sorry.
- 10:02I should have cut that out. That's okay. We can
- 10:03talk about that issue for a second. So if you
- 10:06want companies to pull out of markets, telling
- 10:10them what they can and can't do... is a great
- 10:12way to get them to pull out of markets. Just
- 10:14ask California, which has basically put price
- 10:18ceilings on insurance companies. And wouldn't
- 10:20you know it, there are only a couple of insurance
- 10:23companies left in California that will insure
- 10:25homes and insure your cars. California has become
- 10:29dubbed a state that most insurance companies
- 10:30can't even do business in because of price ceilings.
- 10:34So as usual, the moment you screw around with
- 10:38price controls, You completely have all the unintended
- 10:41consequences that of course, somehow, some way
- 10:43after watching all of this again and again and
- 10:45again, nobody still thinks about. But it might
- 10:48work for us. So then one would then wonder if
- 10:54one had a curious and inquisitive mind. Are these
- 10:57consequences actually unintentional? Hmm for
- 11:05we always talk about this for the people down
- 11:07below Yeah, cuz they don't know any better for
- 11:09the people up top a lot of them know what they're
- 11:11doing the other ones directing traffic They know
- 11:13a bunch of lizard people I'm immediately struck
- 11:19by the Hey, we'll ease some restrictions. We'll
- 11:23make some things easier for you. Like you could
- 11:25always have done that If that doesn't give anybody
- 11:28pause, then you just aren't paying attention
- 11:30and you're beyond help. COVID, the 2020, we saw
- 11:35this in 2020 and 2021, in Idaho even is a great
- 11:39example where they loosened some restrictions
- 11:43like cocktails to go for a few, I don't know,
- 11:47it was about six months in Idaho, maybe even
- 11:48a year, might've lasted a year before they pulled
- 11:50it back and rescinded it. You could. Whip up
- 11:54cocktails at your cocktail bar, put them in a
- 11:56container that was to go, make sure it's, you
- 11:58know, quote unquote, properly and legally sealed
- 12:00and sell cocktails to go because bars were closed.
- 12:04So they just waived the magic wand and went,
- 12:07you know what, we're going to get rid of this
- 12:08restriction so that businesses can, you know,
- 12:10not completely tank. And then when things got
- 12:13a little better, Idaho went, give us that right
- 12:15back. It's illegal again. When you see that and,
- 12:19you know, just extrapolate that out to everything
- 12:21else they did, there were lots of examples of
- 12:23that across the country, across the world. The
- 12:26veil should be lifted by now for anybody watching,
- 12:29truly, because if they just can stop doing it
- 12:32one day, because they declare an emergency or
- 12:34just because they're feeling extra magnanimous
- 12:37to you on Tuesday, and then they take it back
- 12:40on Friday, and ta -da! I say bring back Tarian
- 12:45and Feathering. What was the the bit about the
- 12:49hospital? It also waives some regulations that
- 12:50the governor hopes will make it easier for hospitals
- 12:53to set up shop in the area faster. So in other
- 12:55words there are restrictions that make it harder
- 12:58for hospitals to set up shop and presumably the
- 13:01defenders of said restrictions would be like
- 13:03well they need to be in place on account of the
- 13:06hospitals are going to be unsafe if not if those
- 13:08things aren't there. For safety! For safety won't
- 13:11somebody please think of the children. Won't
- 13:13somebody please think of the children! But when
- 13:17you can just wave them in situations where you've
- 13:20deemed it necessary then So in other words aren't
- 13:23they're gonna then be unsafe Like why are the
- 13:25regulations there in the first place if you can
- 13:27just wave them and then have perfectly function
- 13:29You know none of it. It just doesn't it doesn't
- 13:32make a whole lot of sense Okay, if you think
- 13:35of it Yeah, really all right, I'm not even gonna
- 13:40play the rest of the stupid clip you get the
- 13:42idea Governor Tyrant is gonna relax the restrictions
- 13:46for a little bit of time maybe if you're lucky
- 13:48and but don't we make sure you pay up but we
- 13:50just won't charge you you know you can like be
- 13:52a few days late and we won't charge you we don't
- 13:55think although we have we reserve the right to
- 13:57have in that my house burned down how am I gonna
- 14:01pay my taxes and in steps governor Inslee hello
- 14:04peasants Have I got news for you. We'll make
- 14:07it easier to pay your taxes. You've you've mixed
- 14:10up your interchangeable leader, leader, leaders.
- 14:13It's Governor Ferguson now. Excuse you. Oh, forgive
- 14:17me. I you know, once once all of our supreme
- 14:21burrito Chalupa leaders are all wrapped in the
- 14:23same shitty status tortilla, they all look the
- 14:25same. Hold on. Too bad there's a cuss word because
- 14:28shitty status tortilla is a good show title.
- 14:32Just put asterisks in the. Remove one letter
- 14:36put an asterisk in all of a sudden. It's socially
- 14:38acceptable Okay, so sh asterisk tty status tortilla
- 14:42is in the running for show title. Uh -huh There
- 14:45you go. You know, this is a another reason that
- 14:47there are I guess the reason where you know,
- 14:49there was all this the a lot of ringing of the
- 14:52hands about the Fauci, Tony T dog Fauci and the
- 14:57the congressional hearing and always on. They
- 15:00dusted off the hot seat for him and he had to
- 15:03invoke the Fifth Amendment at eleven million
- 15:04times. And isn't it a thing? And look, he's finally
- 15:06being brought to task and brought to task. I
- 15:09don't I can't get spun up about I don't like
- 15:12care at all. I'm not really sure why anybody
- 15:14cares about this stuff. For one, it's theater.
- 15:16And for two, even if it weren't Fauci is an interchangeable
- 15:19asshole. Like if it wasn't him, it would be somebody
- 15:21else. So who cares about this guy? People really,
- 15:24you know, people need something to like cling
- 15:25on to. And I get that, you know, I guess it makes
- 15:27a lot of people like feel better or something.
- 15:29But it doesn't make me feel better because who
- 15:32the Governor Inslee, Governor Ferguson, Governor
- 15:35Whitler in Michigan, you know, who who cares?
- 15:40These people are all interchangeable. Well, it's
- 15:42not even a Pyrrhic victory. It's not even that
- 15:46cool, which isn't cool to begin with. All they
- 15:49did was trot him out for a day, lambaced him
- 15:52while he sat there and pleaded the fifth 162
- 15:55times. He said nothing. He just took it on the
- 15:57chin. We're getting them good. That's super easy
- 16:00to do. Like he knew what was gonna happen going
- 16:02into it. Everybody knew what was gonna happen
- 16:03going into it. You know what that's all about.
- 16:06That's all about Republican senators grandstanding
- 16:10for campaign season. And a lot of those, now
- 16:13other than Rand Paul and maybe one other, most
- 16:16of them either weren't in office when it happened
- 16:18or they were in office and they went along with
- 16:21most of it. And if we want to get to the presidential
- 16:23level, here's something that'll bake your noodle.
- 16:25Bring back Tarn Feathering again, I say. Trump
- 16:29gave the guy a medal. How can the president who...
- 16:34Put the metal around Fauci's neck and said, well,
- 16:37he's doing a great job and gave him something
- 16:39else too, like a raise and a medal and a, like
- 16:41he was the golden boy for a spelled under Trump.
- 16:46And now you want to, and now you want to tell
- 16:48me that the Trump administration is going to
- 16:50get him. Hello. Trump's our savior. You sure
- 16:55about that? It just blows my mind, you know?
- 16:59So yeah, all the people who are cheering about
- 17:01Fauci, you know, really getting it good and hard
- 17:03last week or the week before. It's like, guess
- 17:05what though? Guess what happened to him? Nothing.
- 17:08Is he in jail? No. Have we fined him a gorillion
- 17:12dollars like we should and take everything he
- 17:15owns and distribute it to people who lost their
- 17:17businesses? No. Would it even matter if we did?
- 17:20Is he still employable? you know he's gonna end
- 17:22up being professor emeritus at fucking berkeley
- 17:25or something they're gonna give him half the
- 17:28universities on the planet will all give him
- 17:30an honorary degree and call him a hero and he's
- 17:32he's gonna do fine platinum parachute for a guy
- 17:35like that and if all else fails he can always
- 17:37move back to the motherland of israel and he'll
- 17:39be fine i've had conversations with people like
- 17:44uh in in real life who have you who had like
- 17:48even mixed up the timelines in their own head
- 17:52about when, oh, is it under Biden? Like, yeah.
- 17:56Who was president in 2020? Well, it was under
- 17:59Biden. And it's like, well, what about 2020?
- 18:02It's like, it's the strangest thing. It's like
- 18:05the amnesia from five minutes ago. And then they're
- 18:08like, you know who I'm voting for in 2024? OK.
- 18:13Does anyone remember? The guy who gave the other
- 18:15guy a medal. Yeah, no, it was all just a conspiracy
- 18:19man against Trump. They set him up. Oh, I know
- 18:23that. I love that one where it's like, oh, he
- 18:25was railroaded. So do you, is that a, do you
- 18:28think that's a good defense of him? Like, so
- 18:31him, yeah, yeah. Well, and him, him being the
- 18:37guy demanding the fed turn on the money printer
- 18:39into overdrive. So he can put his name on the
- 18:43relief check, the $600 quote unquote relief check
- 18:46that we all were going to get while they inflated
- 18:49away 25 % of our purchasing power in the span
- 18:53of a year. But yeah, Trump was totally fighting
- 18:56the good fight, you know? Yeah, you don't understand.
- 19:00He got bamboozled and he didn't know what he
- 19:02was doing. Oh, are you defending him? No, I think
- 19:07we all forgot. I don't even like to bring up
- 19:10Trump on this podcast. I mean, we hardly ever
- 19:11talk about it. He has the biggest brain. He uses
- 19:13the best words. He has the biggest brain. I'm
- 19:15playing 5D chess. Everybody else is playing knuckle
- 19:17sandwiches. Yeah. And I know we hardly ever even
- 19:21mentioned the guy on this show because it's sort
- 19:23of, it's not, we're folk, you know, this is a
- 19:25hyper -local revolution. And, but I sometimes
- 19:28in these contexts, like it's hard not to bring
- 19:29up because... You see, Peppered Spar remembers.
- 19:32Even if you don't. And we do live in quote -unquote
- 19:36Trump country and Hey, we ain't no leftists,
- 19:40but I would actually argue that a lot of Trumpers
- 19:43are our leftists as well I mean homely smokes
- 19:46if you look at the policies They are a strange
- 19:51brew of nationalistic socialistic Statists slightly
- 19:56in some ways even fascists. It's a weird brew
- 19:59man. It is a weird brew all I know is that when
- 20:02the when your When your man, Trump, talks about
- 20:05protecting capitalism and then turns around and
- 20:08has the Department of Homeland or whatever, the
- 20:11Secretary of the Treasury or whatever the hell,
- 20:14buy up shares of private companies. So now the
- 20:18taxpayer has an investment, basically is quote
- 20:21unquote invested in these companies. That is
- 20:23the beginning of a nationalization of private
- 20:26companies. That's how it starts. So like the
- 20:29government isn't supposed to own stock in private
- 20:32companies. You know. Socialism. Okay, let's move
- 20:40on to another one of these, you know, grant seeking,
- 20:44we need money. The city of Boise is on the hunt
- 20:46for more ways to help address the needs of folks
- 20:49experiencing homelessness in our community. That's
- 20:51folks with an X. I'm your Boise neighborhood
- 20:53reporter, Brady Caskey, and the city applied
- 20:55for a $5 million federal grant to expand resources.
- 20:59What, like the friendly neighborhood Spider -Man?
- 21:02I'm your friendly neighborhood reporter, Brett
- 21:04Smiles. Stick with me as we go through this homeless
- 21:08camp. Oh look at that, people are hugging, they're
- 21:10sharing needles, it's beautiful. Don't stick
- 21:13your head out the window, otherwise Brady Caskey
- 21:15might come down upside down and attempt to kiss
- 21:18you. In our community, I'm your... More importantly,
- 21:20don't get on an e -scooter or you might get stabbed
- 21:22to death. To expand resources for folks with
- 21:25severe mental health and substance abuse issues.
- 21:28We know that the need exists. Jessica Barwad
- 21:32advises. So help them yourself. Jessica Barwad
- 21:37advises the city of Boise on issues of homelessness.
- 21:40We continue to watch for these opportunities
- 21:42where we can be creative with funding to fill
- 21:45gaps where we know we need to increase capacity.
- 21:48How's it capacity? Just here we go. Creative
- 21:51with funding. AKA, we asked the federal government
- 21:55for money, which actually is either our money
- 21:59that's been ripped from us to begin with, or
- 22:02as about half of it is now, just printed out
- 22:05of thin air, contributing to inflation. These
- 22:08are the people who will turn around and talk
- 22:09about an affordability crisis and wonder why
- 22:11we can't afford things and why Big Mac costs
- 22:13$12 instead of two. And then here we are, you
- 22:17know. doing federal grants for homelessness,
- 22:20a problem that we keep being told that if we
- 22:22throw another dollar at it, it'll get solved.
- 22:23But we've thrown billions and billions and possibly
- 22:26trillions at it. And hey, wouldn't you know it,
- 22:28it's still around. Isn't that weird, Scott? It's
- 22:30still around. You're understating the case. The
- 22:32more we throw, the worse it gets. Creative problem
- 22:34solving. You are correct. But yeah, creative
- 22:38problem solving, i .e. we just ask for money
- 22:41from the federal government instead of helping
- 22:44them ourselves. We need this money. We know that
- 22:48the need exists Jessica Borrowed advises the
- 22:51city of Boise on issues of homelessness I tried
- 22:54to look up how much Jessica Borrowed is making
- 22:57on a consultant's contract or is she an employee?
- 23:00It's it's hard to determine there wasn't really
- 23:01any available information, but it's not nothing
- 23:03I can't tell if she works for Ada County or but
- 23:07like can one see how There are become more and
- 23:11more and more Jessica Borrowed consulting with
- 23:14cities and counties and burrito supreme leaders
- 23:16from coast to coast when there are more unhoused
- 23:19people camping on green belts. Jessica Borrowed
- 23:23is incentivized to I don't do I even need to
- 23:26elaborate? I mean, it's self -evident. Well,
- 23:30it is self -evident to us, but elaboration is
- 23:32still good because as you and I know, most people
- 23:34don't see it. I think a lot of our people do
- 23:37listen to. who listen to us. You guys, you're
- 23:39the smart ones. Spread the word. We continue
- 23:42to watch for these opportunities where we can
- 23:45be creative with funding to fill gaps where we
- 23:48know we need to increase capacity. So does she
- 23:52mean increase? She must mean increase capacity.
- 23:54Well, she doesn't actually know. Increase capacity.
- 23:56Question mark, I guess, at shelters is what she
- 23:59means. Like expand the shelters to increase the
- 24:02capacity for unhoused people to come crash at
- 24:05shelters. I mean, do you interpret that in a
- 24:08different way? Why actually solve a problem that
- 24:12your job is built around? And why solve the problem
- 24:16yourself when you can just have someone else
- 24:19have their money stolen and then have it redirected
- 24:22to you? She says they applied for a $5 million
- 24:26federal substance abuse and mental health services
- 24:28grant with the hope of improving services across
- 24:31the city. It'll come along with funding for increased
- 24:34services for substance abuse and behavioral health
- 24:36services as well as recovery housing beds. The
- 24:39grant was offered when the money runs out. Who
- 24:42picks up the tab then? And why are the stuff
- 24:46works? You get a government grant. You build
- 24:49the apparatus or the infrastructure or whatever,
- 24:51you set it up, you grow this quote unquote network
- 24:54of services and whatnot. Then the money runs
- 24:56out. And then guess what happens, Scott? I bet
- 24:59you can guess. Three guesses and the first two
- 25:01don't count? With the hope of improving services
- 25:05across the city. It'll come along with funding
- 25:08for increased services for substance abuse and
- 25:10behavioral health services, as well as recovery
- 25:13housing beds. Now, all of the people involved
- 25:15in what she just described. Why are they not
- 25:18incentivized to not only keep this problem alive,
- 25:22but growing? Why are they not incentivized to
- 25:24do that? Is this another one of those three guesses
- 25:29and the first two don't count? The grant was
- 25:31offered in June with a quick turnaround to be
- 25:33submitted in July. Does this have anything to
- 25:36do with some of the incidents we've been seeing
- 25:38on the Green Belt or are those things interconnected?
- 25:40Wait, is that a sound drop or are you saying
- 25:43that? No, that was me. oh does this have anything
- 25:47to do with some of the incidents we've been seeing
- 25:49on the green belt or are those things interconnected
- 25:52get ready get ready because this is your friendly
- 25:55neighborhood spider -man reporter brady caskey
- 25:57asking this same lady uh the could it possibly
- 26:00the timing of this could it possibly have to
- 26:04do with a young man getting stabbed to death
- 26:06by a homeless person in the green belt three
- 26:07weeks ago how do you think she's gonna answer
- 26:11No, this might be it. I know we invest all that
- 26:14way that has nothing to do with it comes the
- 26:16question Big or small make your guess before
- 26:18we call the game begins. It's asked Paul brought
- 26:23to you by Pfizer What is boy the advisor on the
- 26:26unhoused to the city of Boise? How is she gonna
- 26:28answer the question of what's up with the unhoused
- 26:31guy who stabbed the kid to death two weeks ago?
- 26:35Well, that really doesn't have much to do with
- 26:37what we're talking about here. What we're talking
- 26:39about here is making our community stronger.
- 26:42Community, community, community, services, services,
- 26:44services, safety, safety, safety. The homeless
- 26:47people are the real victims here and we need
- 26:51your money to help them. We're not going to help
- 26:53them ourselves. We're going to steal it from
- 26:55you and pay no attention to what continues to
- 26:58happen on the green belt that our beautiful,
- 27:02beautiful Boise police who should be king Next
- 27:05year, I've done a great job of policing. She
- 27:09didn't say it in those exact words. You might
- 27:11be surprised to know, but, you know, you're close
- 27:14enough. The green belt or are those things interconnected?
- 27:16Yeah, that's a great question. That is not a
- 27:19great question to do with some of the incidents.
- 27:22That's a little tribute tribute to John Dvorak.
- 27:24Are those things interconnected? Yeah, that's
- 27:26a great question. Yeah. This has been a longstanding
- 27:28need within in our community that it's not. Well,
- 27:31we've always had this problem. A long -standing
- 27:34need within our community. In our community that...
- 27:36This makes me think of every time when they do
- 27:38a Senate committee hearing, they're always so
- 27:41stupid. They're so stupid. But, you know, anytime
- 27:44somebody gets up there and Rand Paul or somebody
- 27:47else grills them, every single time they ask
- 27:50a loaded question and the person who's answering
- 27:51the question goes, thank you, Senator, for that
- 27:54question before they proceed to answer. Or not
- 27:58answer, as the case may be. Thank you for that
- 28:01question senator. I plead the fifth This has
- 28:04been a long -standing need within in our community
- 28:07that it's not related any single situation or
- 28:10not related single area No, she's not at all.
- 28:13It's like this are always on their radar currently
- 28:15boys So that's it then they just move right along
- 28:17and your friendly your friendly neighborhood
- 28:19Boise reporters like oh, okay moving moving along
- 28:22I Listen again to hey you guys are you guys doing
- 28:26any crime or fraud down there? We're just calling
- 28:29around to see if you guys are doing any crime
- 28:33or fraud. No, no crime, no fraud. Oh, OK, cool.
- 28:38Thanks. Anyway, that's all you need to see here,
- 28:41folks. Yeah, listen and get into what he asked.
- 28:43Does this have anything to do with some of the
- 28:44incidents we've been seeing on the green belt
- 28:46or are those things interconnected? Some of the
- 28:49incidents. Are they interconnected? Like loitering,
- 28:52like littering, like, you know, too many people
- 28:55on skateboards with rock and roll incidents.
- 28:58Yeah. Yeah. You know, are they a murder? Yeah.
- 29:02Is the fact that an unhoused junkie who'd been
- 29:04in and out of the system, 11 billion times stabbing
- 29:08an innocent kid to death. Are they interconnected
- 29:13with the junkies on the green belt? Yeah, that's
- 29:17a great question. Well, you see, Brady, this
- 29:18has always been a problem. This has been a long
- 29:21-standing need within our community that it's
- 29:24not related to any single situation or any single
- 29:26area. And it's your fault for not putting enough
- 29:27money towards it. Correct. This has always been
- 29:32true, and it's not connected, and we need money.
- 29:37That's what she said. This has been a long standing
- 29:40need within in our community that it's not related
- 29:43any single situation or in any single area. She
- 29:47says grants like this are always on their radar.
- 29:49Currently, Boise Police has three behavioral
- 29:51health clinicians that can help officers navigate
- 29:54calls related to unhoused folks. Specifically
- 29:57inside of BPD, it would help add a behavioral
- 30:00health clinician spot that would help with the
- 30:02coordination of homelessness related calls. Add
- 30:06another one. Do you hear that? So add another
- 30:08one. And when the funding runs out, that job
- 30:12still exists and will never go away. And now
- 30:14it's on the local taxpayer to pick up the tab.
- 30:16Well, again, to pick up the tab again, because
- 30:20the local taxpayer is already picking up the
- 30:22tab either from direct taxation or from inflation
- 30:25against our purchasing power. Yes, because the
- 30:28local taxpayer is the federal taxpayer. This
- 30:31is a distinction without a difference. Yeah.
- 30:34And whether they ex right out of our wallets
- 30:37or our purchasing power away v press, the effect
- 30:42is stil inside of BPD. It would health clinician
- 30:49spot tha coordination of homelas She explained
- 30:54that an add them strengthen the s make it easier
- 30:58for Boise folks in need with resour The city
- 31:02expects to hear back. This isn't a native ad
- 31:05for BPD. BPD is now taking applications. So in
- 31:10case you want a job with BPD, just know that
- 31:13a five million dollar grants coming down the
- 31:15pipe in case you want to be a clinician for BPD.
- 31:19The world's best police force running for mayor
- 31:22next year. BPD .gov? Yes, that's BPD .gov. Go
- 31:26to BPD .gov for more details. The city expects
- 31:30to hear back about the status of the grant by
- 31:32the end of September. Reporting in voicing. OK,
- 31:34that was the end of it. And then, OK, I know
- 31:37how. Dude, that read like a native ad for BPD.
- 31:43Yeah, you well, let's do this one then because
- 31:46we got more this is native ads from ISP Not enough
- 31:49people are applying. Oh, okay Let me just say
- 31:51this last thing before we go on to this This
- 31:53is from NPR for ISP and a shortage and they need
- 31:56money and they need officers as well. I know
- 31:59how the the pro burrito supreme leader said,
- 32:04here's that. Well, what do you two assholes suggest
- 32:07that we do? They do need somebody that's along
- 32:10with the ride along with BPD when they do the
- 32:14unhoused related calls. And how are we supposed
- 32:16to get the blah, blah, blah, blah, blah? Neither
- 32:19one of us claims to have all the answers, although
- 32:21we know where we would start. Yeah, I do. The
- 32:23answer is nothing. Do nothing. It's not a government
- 32:25job. OK, exactly. Never was. It never is. You
- 32:29make it worse and you steal our money and our
- 32:32rights while you do it. That is true. And if
- 32:34you really care, if our neighbor, what was her
- 32:37name? Kathy so -and -so making six figures with
- 32:40homelessness, if she really cared, she'd help
- 32:43them herself. And so would all of the people
- 32:45who claim to care. Who would provide her W -2
- 32:49annually if she was doing it herself? Questions
- 32:55that we don't care about. And I was only going
- 32:59to say, well, while I, yes, we'll take Paul's
- 33:01answer in the spirit and what you will. I was
- 33:04just going to say that we're just we're breaking
- 33:07down how the mainstream is presenting this, even
- 33:10though Paul's answer is an answer. I'm not even
- 33:12this is the point of the presentation is not
- 33:14even necessarily to say like, here's all the
- 33:17exact answers. It's more just to point out how
- 33:19disingenuous the presentations from the mainstream
- 33:21media is on these topics as ever. Well, yeah,
- 33:24I never claimed to offer answers. I didn't offer
- 33:26any answers. You posed the hypothetical question
- 33:28just now, so I offered an answer. But my big
- 33:33irk right now is listening again and again and
- 33:36again to the mainstream media, basically run
- 33:39native ads for Big Daddy government with every
- 33:42single piece of quote unquote journalism they
- 33:45do. There's like no, there was no pushback. There
- 33:48was no actual hard questions. There was nothing.
- 33:51It was just like, yeah, okay. So, uh, how are
- 33:53you guys feeling about this? Oh yeah, we're feeling
- 33:55pretty good. Uh, money is what we need. Money
- 33:57is what we're going to get and we're going to
- 33:59keep getting bigger and offering more stuff.
- 34:01Community, community, community services, services,
- 34:03services, give us your money, give us your money.
- 34:05And meanwhile, the media is like, okay, cool.
- 34:09And, uh, if you want a job with the government,
- 34:11here's where to find one. Here is a. Different
- 34:17version of the same thing with regard to ISP.
- 34:20This is from NPR Not enough people are applying
- 34:23to be Idaho State Police troopers in northern
- 34:25Idaho Which could deepen the ongoing officer
- 34:28shortage according to a press release from ISP
- 34:31With just over a month remaining before applications
- 34:33closed for the January Trooper Academy ISP says
- 34:36only seven applicants for the Coeur d 'Alene
- 34:38region and three for the Lewiston region meet
- 34:41the minimum requirements That led me down a little
- 34:44bit of a rabbit hole here because of course the
- 34:47question then arises as is always the question
- 34:50to the never -ending drumbeat of not enough not
- 34:53enough not enough what is enough who is determining
- 34:57what the proper staffing levels is for isp what
- 35:00metrics are you using who is making the discretionary
- 35:03call we need a heli we need two helis we need
- 35:05six helis we need 20 troopers 200 troopers how
- 35:10are these determinations made and what would
- 35:12be enough the questions are never posed let alone
- 35:14the answers so here's a little bit of a no but
- 35:17those actually are good questions so if brady
- 35:21green bush was asking us you know those questions
- 35:24and be like you know what brady our friendly
- 35:26neighborhood spider -man news reporter government
- 35:28mouthpiece that's a good question and it would
- 35:31actually be a good question yeah that's a great
- 35:34question sound bite it is a that's a good one
- 35:39here is And I know is I'm excited to hear that
- 35:44only seven people applied for the job. I mean,
- 35:46my God, let's make it like three next time. So
- 35:49you're telling me there's a chance. So they faced
- 35:52if you hear they said, I believe she said they
- 35:55there was only seven were at the end of the application
- 35:58process after passing all of the whatever the
- 36:00background check, all the things they do. There
- 36:02was only seven qualified. Isn't that what she
- 36:04said? ISP says only seven applicants for the
- 36:08Coeur d 'Alene region and three for the Lewiston
- 36:10region meet the minimum requirements. Meet the,
- 36:12so it's meet the minimum requirements. They didn't
- 36:15give us how many applied. 1600 people applied,
- 36:19but it turns out only seven of them were. It
- 36:25feels good. This is good news. This is a bit
- 36:27of good news. I'm going to, I'm just going to
- 36:29revel in this. I'm going to roll around this
- 36:30mud like a happy muddy pig for a moment. Makes
- 36:34me feel really good. Only seven in the Coeur
- 36:35d 'Alene area. That's district one. So that's
- 36:37Bonner County. That's Boundary County. That is
- 36:40Kootenay County. I believe that is Benoist County
- 36:43and potentially Laetaw County potentially. I
- 36:46don't know if coming out of Lewiston, if Lewiston
- 36:49covers Laetaw County or not, but that makes me
- 36:52super happy. Oh, I see. So if your house is on
- 36:56fire and you called 911, you wouldn't care if
- 36:58anybody showed up. Is that it? Well, first off
- 37:02the cops don't do that kind of stuff. They're
- 37:04more likely to arrest you by your house is on
- 37:06fire And we heard you were playing poker in here,
- 37:10sir So we set your house on fire and arrested
- 37:12you Okay, here is a little bit ISP is a fucking
- 37:19joke and I'm telling you it they are they because
- 37:22because Idaho doesn't have highway patrol Littering
- 37:27and Littering and see I wait we don't have just
- 37:31straight -up highway patrol like our favorite
- 37:33super troopers movie So ISP is highway patrol
- 37:3680 90 percent of what they do is pull you over
- 37:40for going too fast They pull you over for traffic.
- 37:43They make their bread and butter by harassing
- 37:45you while traveling. That's ISP They do have
- 37:48departments that do other stuff, but the other
- 37:51stuff is just as bad or worse like their ABC
- 37:54department More, you know the alcohol beverage
- 37:57control board in Idaho, which runs liquor like
- 38:01the jihadists run everything in their own countries.
- 38:05They're basically they're Mormon Islamists is
- 38:07what ABC is the way they treat. Oh, well, yeah,
- 38:10because you don't want to be impure now, do you?
- 38:12Why don't you read the Idaho Constitutional Provision
- 38:14on impurity, Paul Michael Banducci? Yeah. And
- 38:18the Idaho Constitution section on upholding and
- 38:21maintaining the morality of the public. That's
- 38:24my favorite part. I guess the morality. Uh -huh.
- 38:28Yeah, good stuff there. So almost all of ABC
- 38:31is run by the Mormons and that arm of ISP which
- 38:35enforces the ABC laws are also made up of Mormons.
- 38:38They're basically just blonde -haired blue -eyed
- 38:40jihadis with special underwear. Too bad it said
- 38:45jihadis with special underwear is too long for
- 38:47a show title, but... That's good. Here's the
- 38:50rabbit hole a little bit of on I started looking
- 38:53for answers to that question, or if any anyone
- 38:57ever gets close to providing the answers of who
- 39:00determines what ISP staffing level should be
- 39:02and what is enough and all those questions. So
- 39:04I came across a couple things. Wait, I know,
- 39:05I know. I bet I know. It's the ISP chief of police,
- 39:10you know, the guy whose job it is to who's incentivized
- 39:13to make his departments all bigger. Here is from
- 39:19April of this year. It's Colonel Bill Gardner
- 39:23of ISP He's the director as you just somehow
- 39:26magically guessed correctly Leaders at the Idaho
- 39:29State Police tell me they're struggling to keep
- 39:31troopers on the force after years of funding
- 39:34has not kept up with competitive pay I'm Meridian.
- 39:38Neighborhood reporter Ali Trippke is speaking
- 39:40with the ISP Colonel about what needs to change
- 39:42as a bill that would secure some more funding
- 39:45awaits the governor's signature. These are the
- 39:48things that keep me up at night is that phone
- 39:50call that I get at night and something that's
- 39:52terrible that happens. And then I go somebody
- 39:54was playing poker in their own house. What if
- 39:58something bad happens? And then I only have seven
- 40:01officers. And then we go back and research it
- 40:05and we think, this has been stopped by having
- 40:06a police force that's fully staffed, right? Oh
- 40:10my God. If only we had that eighth officer to
- 40:14go back and use the payphone to make that all
- 40:17-important call we needed, then we could have
- 40:20stopped this crime. Right, right, right, right.
- 40:23Because, you know, as we've heard from other
- 40:25episodes, you know, they're all using payphones
- 40:28to make important phone calls. Because they don't
- 40:31have money. Yes. Hi dispatch. I only put in 15
- 40:34cents. So I only have a second. I got By having
- 40:38a police force that's damn it. These things don't
- 40:39take debit cards by having a police force That's
- 40:42who carries change anymore. This is ridiculous
- 40:45by having a police force. That's that's fully
- 40:47staffed, right? I had replaced my ashtray with
- 40:51handcuffs After losing access to gas tax funding
- 40:56five years ago, Idaho State Police now rely on
- 40:59the state's general fund, along with just three
- 41:01dollars from each vehicle registration going
- 41:04towards trooper pay. You know what else happened
- 41:08about this while we're picking this shit apart?
- 41:11The gas tax didn't go down. No, they just they
- 41:14just lost access to it. ISP got less of it. They
- 41:16lost access. They got less of it. They couldn't
- 41:18get into the room any longer. They didn't take
- 41:19less from us. Right. No, of course not. It's
- 41:21just that ISP, the master key to the evidence
- 41:24locker full of that money, just that they didn't
- 41:26have access. Along with just $3 from each vehicle
- 41:30registration going towards triple pay. Leaders
- 41:33say that funding falls short of what's needed
- 41:36to stay fully staffed. So what is needed? I kept
- 41:39attempting to find the answer to? Staffed. And
- 41:41right now I have about 40 openings in those ranks.
- 41:45That's a lot of vacancy. for those that are responsible
- 41:48to make sure public safety is out there. They're
- 41:51also losing troops to city. I assure you public
- 41:54safety will increase the fewer of these people
- 41:58are on the roads. I am more likely, I am more
- 42:02likely to get shot and killed or harassed or
- 42:05beat up by these guys on the road than I am by
- 42:08anything and anybody else that I could ever encounter
- 42:11on the road in Idaho. And it's not even close.
- 42:16They're also losing troo agencies where pay is
- 42:21oft in Moscow, there's normal None. So I have
- 42:30to supplement. They're pretty stoked about that.
- 42:31Or Lane or from Lewiston to make their way up
- 42:33to Moscow to work. Leaders say staffing shortages
- 42:35can impact how quickly they're able to assist
- 42:38local departments like in Meridian, where troopers
- 42:41help shut down I -84 Wednesday afternoon in an
- 42:45effort to keep the public safe during a police
- 42:47pursuit. We need to do something to. address
- 42:51the critical trooper shortage. It's getting to
- 42:53the point where if you're out on the highway
- 42:55and you dial 911, there might not be a trooper
- 42:59to show up. Hoping to increase trooper retention,
- 43:02Colonel Gardner requested $18 million earlier
- 43:05this year through Senate Bill 1379, which would
- 43:08have been funded by increasing vehicle registration
- 43:11fees by about $5. But the proposal was scaled
- 43:14back and ultimately stalled at the State House,
- 43:17making way for a new measure, House Bill 9. 67
- 43:20that would bring in about four million dollars
- 43:22instead. So when you ask, yeah, see, there, they
- 43:26do it. They did it again. We want 18 million.
- 43:31No. OK. How about four, which is actually what
- 43:34we really wanted to begin with? Oh, OK. Well,
- 43:37that's way more reasonable. Sure. I mean, what
- 43:41are we 12 years old? You know what? I guess we
- 43:44are. We are because it works. It does. So yeah,
- 43:49well again, you're dealing with a with the general
- 43:52populace that is basically, you know the mental
- 43:54capacity of a wet towel and the Legislators who
- 43:58have the cumulative IQ of a cold bowl of soup.
- 44:01So, of course it works. I thought Paul Michael
- 44:04Manducci would refer to it as Jen pop So when
- 44:10you ask is it am I happy with it it's You know,
- 44:14it's I don't even I would be tempted to call
- 44:15it a bandaid. This is not my preferred approach,
- 44:18but it's a compromise. That's my willingness
- 44:20to support this compromise. You need to stop.
- 44:23We've compromised and we're charging all of you
- 44:25more. Yeah. Also, I like his like what he's he's
- 44:29interviewing himself. Am I happy with it? Or
- 44:32maybe I don't know. Maybe the friendly neighborhood
- 44:35Spider -Man reporter asked him, are you happy
- 44:37with this? But he got to it later and he was
- 44:39like, when you ask, is it? Am I happy with it?
- 44:42Am I happy with it? No, I'm not. Do I want more
- 44:45money? I sat down the other day and I asked myself,
- 44:48so am I happy with this? And I thought to myself,
- 44:51well, we get more money. I mean, I'm not happy
- 44:53that we don't get as much money as I wanted,
- 44:56but I'm OK with it. Call it a bandaid. This is
- 44:59not my preferred approach, but it's a compromise.
- 45:02That's my willingness to support this compromise
- 45:04bill. We need to stop the bleeding and to help
- 45:06retain our quality troopers. Stop the bleeding.
- 45:09They always use phrases like that. Stop the bleeding.
- 45:11Okay, how about we stop the bleeding that you're
- 45:13doing to us? ISP's bleeding out! That's where
- 45:16the bleeding is. A similar sentiment echoed across
- 45:19the Senate floor Wednesday as lawmakers advanced
- 45:22the bill to the governor's desk. And if we value
- 45:24all of our state employees, we need to do better.
- 45:27Guess who this is? Oh, I recognize that voice.
- 45:31I mean, these cuts are killing police officers.
- 45:33These cuts are killing people. Yeah, this is
- 45:36our homegirl Melissa Wintrow. Who has the time
- 45:40the state's hand shoved up her rear end and they
- 45:43just work her mouth like a puppet I always say
- 45:45the exact same thing her stats and if we value
- 45:47her all of our same place We need to do better
- 45:49and we better and all of them and give them I
- 45:51don't this but listen listen It doesn't matter
- 45:54if you do or don't she's taking it anyway But
- 45:56listen to what she wants to do and we need to
- 45:57fund all of them and give all the raises and
- 45:59pay their health care I Love it. It's the last
- 46:0710 seconds. ISP leaders say they'll look to address
- 46:10a long term solution in future legislative sessions
- 46:14in Meridian. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So that's from
- 46:16again, that was from April of 22 of this year.
- 46:20And that led me because again, I'm still searching
- 46:22for that was a long clip of Colonel Leader Bill
- 46:26Gardner of ISP just saying we don't have enough
- 46:29staffing, we don't have enough money and attempting
- 46:31to figure out how hard numbers on these sorts
- 46:34of things. See, for number reasons. A, it's hard
- 46:37to calculate, Scott. You just don't know. It's
- 46:39like, you know, how many licks does it take to
- 46:42get to the center of a Tootsie Pop? The world
- 46:44will never know. Just shut up and pay us, please.
- 46:47Like, it's very, you know, it's complicated.
- 46:49There's a lot of things involved. Don't you worry
- 46:51your tax paying head off about it. We're just
- 46:53going to throw out a number and then we're going
- 46:55to compromise somewhere in between that number
- 46:57and a different number. And compromise means
- 46:59you still pay more, but don't worry about it.
- 47:01We know what we need and what we want, and we're
- 47:04just gonna, you know, we're gonna do that. Just
- 47:06know that no matter what, after thinking about
- 47:09it, I'm not happy. We're bleeding out! We're
- 47:13bleeding out. I hate these people. Why are you
- 47:21the way that you are? Honestly, every time I
- 47:23try to do something fun or exciting, you make
- 47:27it not that way. I hate every so much about the
- 47:34things that you choose to be. One more clip here
- 47:38before on this before our mid show. And I know
- 47:41we're on a hard out here. So this this once again,
- 47:44I was continuing to search down the rabbit hole
- 47:46of anything resembling an answer to this question.
- 47:48I stumbled upon this January 2025 interview on
- 47:53Matt Todd show The Ranch with the very same ISP
- 47:57Colonel Bill Gardner, the director. And this
- 48:00provided a couple of gems with regard. No answers
- 48:04on the questions that we're attempting to ask
- 48:06here, but definitely some gems here with regard
- 48:08to AG, which, as you know, in Idaho, agriculture
- 48:12is king in Idaho. Is King. Have a listen to this.
- 48:15How is that relating to Idaho? I mean, you bring
- 48:17up this one particular example of human trafficking.
- 48:20Is this a common thing? Is it common enough that
- 48:23it's it's on your radar? Is it very infrequent?
- 48:26What's the relationship with human traffickers
- 48:28in Idaho? Well, I'm sure you recognize that one
- 48:31of the governor's top priorities is human trafficking.
- 48:33I think he's he realizes that this problem started
- 48:37at the federal level and this didn't originate
- 48:39here in Idaho. But unfortunately, Idaho is now
- 48:42having to deal with this. And so he has not only
- 48:44given me the direction, but he's provided resources
- 48:46in order to to fight this scourge. What's interesting
- 48:50in Idaho with human trafficking, I think when
- 48:51people hear human trafficking. They think of
- 48:53the sexual element behind it and the sex crimes
- 48:56that take place. But honestly, most of our cases
- 48:59have to do with the agricultural industry where
- 49:03people are brought across the border and they're
- 49:05essentially slave labor. And they're told you
- 49:07will stay at this farm or this dairy and you
- 49:09will work here until the cost of bringing you
- 49:13across is paid off. And they're just servitude.
- 49:17Forever because they never get it paid off and
- 49:20so there are again I won't go into too many details,
- 49:22but there are several cases We're actively working
- 49:24right now where it's not a sexual element But
- 49:27it's basically slave labor in Idaho's agricultural
- 49:30industry Weird and a couple of legislators worked
- 49:34on that Kate worked on that stuff really really
- 49:37hard for the what is it we're in 2020 for the
- 49:402026 legislative session and then lost their
- 49:43primaries because of it King Ag likes slave labor.
- 49:48Of course they don't frame it that way. Of course
- 49:51not. They don't frame it that way. But hey, rules
- 49:55for thee, but not for me. Illegal immigrants
- 49:58is cool when it works for us, but it's not cool
- 50:00if it actually is competition, but it's totally
- 50:02cool when Big Ag gets to use it as slave labor.
- 50:06Nothing to see here. Everybody move along. If
- 50:08you challenge it, we'll take your seat in the
- 50:10primaries. And they did. Well, what do you want
- 50:12us to do, man? Americans won't pick lettuce.
- 50:16What do you want us to do? Just make the government
- 50:19smaller and you'd be amazed what people will
- 50:22do. What? I'd say that's where most of our human
- 50:26trafficking cases come from. Gosh, that's rough.
- 50:29OK, so for one, I just let that soundboard material.
- 50:33Gosh, that's rough. Yes, yes. I love it. I'm
- 50:39going to make a request right now. That one.
- 50:42It's so good. I want that one. I pick that one.
- 50:44That's is it. Gosh, that's rough. It's not quite
- 50:46a show title, but boy, do I love it. I thought
- 50:49about it for just a second. Definitely a sound
- 50:51drop in these cases. Who is the who's the perpetrator?
- 50:56Right. Because we know who the victim is. Are
- 50:58these individuals who are being trafficked by
- 51:00a larger organization that are then essentially
- 51:02presenting them as legal labor to the to the
- 51:05farm owners or the farm managers? This is the
- 51:07moment where Lieutenant Dan says, I can't actually
- 51:11talk about this on air, Matt Todd, or my job
- 51:15might be next. Who's responsible for this? So
- 51:20all the intelligence points to the cartels that
- 51:22are doing this. And I think when people hear
- 51:23the word cartel, they automatically think of
- 51:25the drug trade. That's what they're known for.
- 51:27That's what they do. MS -13. But they're in it
- 51:30to make money. That's their entire goal. And
- 51:33so whatever avenue that is, if they could make
- 51:35enough money selling fake Oakley sunglasses,
- 51:37they're going to do it, right? What is anybody's
- 51:40goal in any of the stuff we've been hearing so
- 51:42far about the Boise homeless industrial, unhoused
- 51:45industrial complex, ISP, What are the goals of
- 51:49everything that we've just been discussing here
- 51:51before? All I've been hearing is people talk
- 51:53about money, money, money, more money, bring
- 51:55in more money, get more money, money, money,
- 51:57money. So yeah, good question. What cartel are
- 51:59you talking about? That's their entire goal.
- 52:02And so whatever avenue that is, if they can make
- 52:05enough money selling fake Oakley sunglasses,
- 52:07they're going to do it, right? If they can make
- 52:08money selling people, they're going to do it.
- 52:11If they're making money selling... It's if we
- 52:14can make enough money Selling registration to
- 52:18citizens who have to register their cars that
- 52:20they already bought and paid for will do it.
- 52:22We'll do it You see the government is a cartel
- 52:25to Government just doesn't like competition.
- 52:29It loves crime Just doesn't like competition.
- 52:33It's got to be the only gang in town You had
- 52:35to register the car for your safety citizen if
- 52:38they're making money selling drugs. They're going
- 52:40to do it. Oh Interesting government. Yeah, that's
- 52:45an interesting point. That's a really interesting
- 52:47point. How many boosters do you have, Lieutenant
- 52:51Dan? Is anybody connecting any dots on this?
- 52:56In this case, they realize that they can, and
- 52:58they're very good at masking themselves as a
- 53:05legitimate private entity. And then when you
- 53:07really pull everything back and you pull these
- 53:10layers back, you realize who you're dealing with,
- 53:12you're dealing with the cartel. Hey, you know
- 53:14what? At least they have the decency to turn
- 53:16a profit unlike you guys in the government. And
- 53:21just be a little bit more straight up about who
- 53:25you are and what your intentions are. OK, I just
- 53:27found all of this to be so... These other cartels
- 53:32that are extorting these poor people. The victims.
- 53:37But you do the same thing to us. You just file
- 53:41the right paperwork and wear a costume while
- 53:43you do it. It's just a 3 % increase citizen.
- 53:48All right. Dig on this for a second. If they
- 53:50arrest me for going, you know, Oh my God, I went
- 53:5410 miles faster than the posted sign that I didn't
- 53:56vote for on the road that they forced me to pay
- 53:59for that. I didn't vote for that. They put through
- 54:01a spot that I didn't vote for, but I violate
- 54:04that and they pull me in and I don't go quietly
- 54:06and they kidnapped me. like a cartel and put
- 54:10me in jail and hold me hostage like a cartel
- 54:13and then when I get out of there because in Kootenay
- 54:16County a lot of the county jails do this they
- 54:18charge you for your stay like a cartel and if
- 54:22you work in there because a lot like the kitchen
- 54:25is run by inmates it's all inmate workers so
- 54:28you have to pay off your way in there like a
- 54:32cartel And the whole way, they transport you
- 54:36from spot to spot, then they hold you in different
- 54:38spots, all against your will, which sure feels
- 54:42and looks a lot like human trafficking. Oh, and
- 54:45guess what? They make money all along the way.
- 54:49They don't turn a profit because they're terrible
- 54:51at business, but they do make money. And then
- 54:56when you really pull everything back and you
- 54:59pull these layers back, you realize who you're
- 55:01dealing with. You're dealing with the cartel.
- 55:03Yes, some case you know what that is the most
- 55:05true thing. He has said if you pull the layers
- 55:08back, then you know Who you are dealing with?
- 55:13What's exact benji self so in some cases yes,
- 55:17Idaho farmers are being tricked into think that
- 55:19they're bringing people on to work at their farms.
- 55:22Legally, they think they're following the law,
- 55:24but it turns out that they're not. So that is
- 55:26the case. Oftentimes. God, that's really rough.
- 55:29What? Isn't it so good? And then here, listen
- 55:31to that. Listen at the very end. We get one more
- 55:32gem. Oftentimes. Wait, wait, wait, wait. He just
- 55:36flipped that around. Listen, listen. Oftentimes.
- 55:38God, that's really rough. I love it so much.
- 55:49I can't get enough. God, that's really rough.
- 55:52Do you see what just happened, Scott? It's the
- 55:56farmers who are the victims. The farmers didn't
- 55:58know they're the victims here. They're the victims.
- 56:01King Ag is a victim. God, that's really rough.
- 56:15Okay. Matt Todd, everyone, and Lieutenant Dan.
- 56:18So good. South Idaho. You know what's not rough,
- 56:22Paul? You want to have a have a have a gander
- 56:26at what's not rough. Executive producer donations.
- 56:31The value for value model. And the fact that
- 56:33we don't threaten them with violence in order
- 56:35to collect them. See, no, that would be acting
- 56:38like a cartel. Yeah, but we're the victims here.
- 56:45Gosh, that's rough. The value for value. And
- 56:50the worst part of it all is the farmers don't
- 56:53even know that what they're doing is illegal.
- 56:55Oh, geez, that is rough. Gosh, that's rough.
- 56:58Agriculture is king in Idaho. The king of this
- 57:03program, I don't know, it's a stupid transition,
- 57:05but is the value for value model. Value for value
- 57:09is an advertiser free outside influence free.
- 57:14freedom liberty model and not this kind of freedom
- 57:18but the actual liberty of not being beholden
- 57:22to outside interests who dictate what you should
- 57:24say or not say or push or not push or otherwise
- 57:27shill on behalf of in order to get their money
- 57:30no we just do value for value as pioneered by
- 57:34adam and john the late jcd on no agenda and we
- 57:38gratefully borrow that model and apply it here
- 57:41It is purely reliant on how valuable you, our
- 57:46producers, think this product is. We try to make
- 57:49it a valuable product. We try to put out... It's
- 57:51a free market podcast. That's exactly it. We
- 57:53try to put out as valuable a product as we can.
- 57:56It comes out every Thursday. We try to be consistent.
- 57:58We try to be of quality. And we hope that...
- 58:02You are producers find that to be the case. And
- 58:04if you do we ask that you contribute back value
- 58:06to our program with your time talent and treasure
- 58:08That's it. That's the whole model. It's super
- 58:10direct and it's free market Not a fake free market
- 58:13of ourselves as the kind of the the newest style
- 58:18of pirate radio I may be on patent myself patent
- 58:21ourselves on the back a little too hard I don't
- 58:23know you guys can you know donate some money
- 58:25and give us a note and tell us that we suck But
- 58:27I kind of feel that it's the the newest form
- 58:29of pirate radio It's kind of the last bastion
- 58:32left. Exactly. No, that is what it is. I mean,
- 58:36it's a good description. And it's not, you know,
- 58:38how much the term free market gets applied to
- 58:41stuff that isn't actually free and is not really
- 58:44a real market. You know, we're free market capitalism.
- 58:47Really? When was this? In 1804? I mean, when
- 58:50was that true? In any case, this is as real a
- 58:54form of it as I think you can really get. And
- 58:56that is to just put out value and that's value
- 58:58back. Yep. Well, we actually have an understanding
- 59:01of, you know, terms and concepts and we have
- 59:03a grasp on how to properly use those terms and
- 59:06concepts. So when we say free market, we actually
- 59:07mean it is actually free market. If we provide
- 59:09value, we sure love you giving us value back,
- 59:12but you don't have to. It's voluntary. Voluntary
- 59:14interaction, baby. Indeed. And value means many
- 59:17different things to many different people. And
- 59:19value to you could mean your time or your talent,
- 59:23which means for one, spreading the word and using
- 59:27your time. or your oratory talent or influence
- 59:30talent to convince others to check out the show.
- 59:33And that means, you know, send people the link.
- 59:35But, you know, don't be shy about mentioning
- 59:37mentioning us. Keep us front of mind. So when
- 59:39these conversations come up about, you know,
- 59:41the Inland Northwest and following along with
- 59:44the news, quote unquote, etc. Oh, you know, I
- 59:46know kind of a fun and more interesting way to
- 59:49do that than just sort of scrolling Reddit or

- 1:01:28with another donation from Josh Hoover. Joshua
- 1:01:33Hoover from last week, who the whole prison Paul,
- 1:01:36prison Mike thing was Josh Hoover. And Josh Hoover's
- 1:01:39back this week with 6 .67. We see what you did
- 1:01:44there, Josh Hoover. And Josh says, guys, after
- 1:01:49hearing a little bit more about the in and out
- 1:01:51story, the Snyder family, it's clear that prison
- 1:01:55Paul needs to up his game. Prison. OK, well,
- 1:01:59jail is one thing, but Paul now needs to start
- 1:02:02a burger empire to claim the ultimate hero's
- 1:02:06journey. You know, I'd looked up this Josh's
- 1:02:09note. Thanks, Josh. We appreciate it a lot. Josh
- 1:02:12Josh's note it inspired me. I was like, you know,
- 1:02:14I was totally off the I was like Going just off
- 1:02:18of what I remember about the Snyder story, you
- 1:02:20know, especially growing up in Southern, California
- 1:02:22You know, I've always loved in and out and I
- 1:02:24I had heard pieces of the Snyder story over the
- 1:02:27years But as I mentioned on the last show on
- 1:02:29episode 40, there was not there has not been
- 1:02:31like any, you know docu -series documentary dramatic
- 1:02:34whatever anything of the sort about the Snyder
- 1:02:36family despite the extremely ripe material for
- 1:02:40Such a production and they're you know, they're
- 1:02:43a secretive family. It's still privately owned
- 1:02:44So there's a reason that that is true But it
- 1:02:46still seems like I don't know you could do like
- 1:02:47a Netflix series and you could just change all
- 1:02:49the names and stuff and it's like a story that's
- 1:02:52Beyond belief so but I was like, you know How
- 1:02:54much of that would do I I want to make sure I
- 1:02:56actually have that right? Because I was just
- 1:02:57sort of saying a lot of stuff and it was all
- 1:02:59based on my memory so more I had a bunch of it
- 1:03:02right about the you know, Esther and Harry starting
- 1:03:05it. And then when Harry dies, the oldest son
- 1:03:10inherits it. I had said it went to the youngest
- 1:03:12son. That is wrong. It did go to the oldest son,
- 1:03:15Rich. Rich did die in a plane crash, as I said,
- 1:03:19but something I did not know. I never remember
- 1:03:22reading for one. It was not a small, like a prop
- 1:03:25job. I was always picturing like a Piper Cub.
- 1:03:27Like he was like a hobbyist pilot. That was based
- 1:03:30on absolutely nothing. No, it was a business
- 1:03:32jet. and there were, I think, five people on
- 1:03:36board, and here, so it's crazy. That happened
- 1:03:39in 19 - Oh man, when your G6 just nose -dives,
- 1:03:41huh? That's what happened. Well, but, okay, so
- 1:03:44it was in 1993. They flew up on that jet to Fresno
- 1:03:51to watch 11 -year -old Lindsay, the granddaughter,
- 1:03:56the only surviving heir, who now is the owner
- 1:03:59and the president and this is was spurred by
- 1:04:02in this also she's been putting out statements
- 1:04:04publicly about the the twin falls in and out
- 1:04:07shooting so this is all tied in because she currently
- 1:04:09runs the joint she was 11 years old and was in
- 1:04:13a school play and rich and some others had flown
- 1:04:17up in the company jet to watch her in this production
- 1:04:20and the freaking thing crashed on the way back
- 1:04:23in to Southern California into John Wayne. They
- 1:04:26were caught up in the wake turbulence of a of
- 1:04:30a United Airlines 757. They were like following
- 1:04:33it like two miles behind the big jet. And then
- 1:04:37for some reason, the pilots were maybe a little
- 1:04:39close ATC. You guys are now we're fine. We're
- 1:04:42fine. Wake turbulence. They got caught up in
- 1:04:44the wake turbulence. It rolled the thing over
- 1:04:46and slammed it into the ground. So that's what
- 1:04:49happened with the plane crash with Rich Snyder,
- 1:04:52who then Now, now company control goes to Guy
- 1:04:56Snyder, the younger brother, and he's the guy
- 1:04:58with the drug problems. And he does drive I had
- 1:05:01said heroin overdose, I think it was like hydrocodone,
- 1:05:04it might have been prescription, whatever the
- 1:05:06spirit is the same. I don't know if he was mainlining,
- 1:05:08whatever. But it was drug problems. And he did
- 1:05:10die of an accidental overdose in 1999, several
- 1:05:13years later. So now Lindsay, who's now 17 years
- 1:05:16old, has lost her dad and her uncle, and is the
- 1:05:21Esther's still alive, her grandma, but she's
- 1:05:23like in her 80s. So anyway, I had it mostly right,
- 1:05:26but I didn't know any of the Jet stuff. And anyway,
- 1:05:30the story just gets crazier and crazier the more
- 1:05:32you dig into it. Lindsay's been married three
- 1:05:34times. I mean, it's nuts. Hey, Scott. Let's finish
- 1:05:39our podcast. Okay, fine. Anyway, we do have a
- 1:05:45really into this burger dynasty thing. Anyway,
- 1:05:48so Joshua thinks that you need to start one yourself
- 1:05:50because, you know, if you got a drama and, you
- 1:05:52know, although I don't know about jail, but in
- 1:05:54any case, there's plenty of drama, but definitely
- 1:05:58not burger dynasty drama. Good grief. And you
- 1:06:00people really get into this in and out family
- 1:06:02stuff. I love in and out. This show is sponsored
- 1:06:05by in and out. Yes. In and out. I was starting
- 1:06:08to wonder, man. One more, and it's easy because
- 1:06:11there's no note. It's just, it's an anonymous,
- 1:06:13it said, please get me anonymous. And it's a
- 1:06:15shiny schmeckle. That's 999 from anonymous. And
- 1:06:20that thus concluded the value for value segment
- 1:06:23of no ID. Thank you, Josh Hoover. I will take
- 1:06:27you up. I will, let's see, your advice or your
- 1:06:31request is duly noted and duly rejected. I've
- 1:06:35worked in hospitality and retail for 12 years.
- 1:06:37I don't want to do it again. And food is the
- 1:06:39worst of the worst. The margins suck. Customer
- 1:06:42service of that nature sucks. It's hard to do.
- 1:06:44The regulations are high. And I can't even eat
- 1:06:48cheeseburgers right now due to restrictive diets
- 1:06:51and trying to heal my gut. So it ain't happening,
- 1:06:53but I really appreciate the support, Josh Hoover.
- 1:06:55Thank you very much. yes thank you and for the
- 1:06:57anonymous shiny schmeckle let me read this quickly
- 1:06:59too but actually before we exit the value for
- 1:07:01value segment i know you were up against it but
- 1:07:03i want to read this from jeff a dude named jeff
- 1:07:06and i do want to mention because it's value for
- 1:07:08value we are using cliparoni his amazing tool
- 1:07:11to do a little clips from the show with a with
- 1:07:14a generated video b -roll and the and the transcript
- 1:07:18of the show just to make sort of video segments
- 1:07:21of this show, which is an audio show, and his
- 1:07:23tool is awesome, Clipperoni. So dude named Jeff
- 1:07:26is providing that tool to us as a value for value
- 1:07:29thing, and we really greatly appreciate it, it's
- 1:07:31awesome. He sent a note, he said, heard your
- 1:07:34recent discussion hit on COVID era prison releases,
- 1:07:36that was from last show from episode 40. I was
- 1:07:38pretty shocked to watch an episode of... a popular
- 1:07:42Netflix series about bad neighbors slash true
- 1:07:44crime. It was surprising that it actually showed
- 1:07:47what it's like in Oakland. But the story was
- 1:07:49police not doing anything about a lunatic threatening
- 1:07:52a family and even a threat of murder. They finally
- 1:07:55arrested him after dozens of police calls and
- 1:07:57restraining orders and et cetera, only to let
- 1:07:58him out a couple of days later due to covid policy.
- 1:08:01And a couple of days after that, he murdered
- 1:08:03the neighbor. I had to look it up. And he sent
- 1:08:05a link the zero zero bail policy, quote unquote,
- 1:08:09for the win. from a dude named Jeff. So yeah,
- 1:08:13we are not overstating the case where we weren't
- 1:08:15on the last show, or maybe it was the show before.
- 1:08:17The notion of, oh well, there's a virus, the
- 1:08:19air's dangerous, so why don't you guys there
- 1:08:22in cell block B just hit the bricks. See you
- 1:08:24later. Yeah, true facts. Just remember that when
- 1:08:27we're dealing with the state, pretty much everything
- 1:08:28is within the realm of possibility, and the line
- 1:08:30between parody and real life pretty much doesn't
- 1:08:34exist anymore. It's... shit we can't make up
- 1:08:37really we couldn't we couldn't write it ourselves
- 1:08:39because it boggles the mind so thoroughly and
- 1:08:42we're not that creative well thank you very much
- 1:08:48guys value for value please participate in our
- 1:08:51value for value for model if you find our show
- 1:08:52valuable noidshow .com I'll take you down there
- 1:08:55for 25 25 Schmeckels I don't know how much I
- 1:09:00don't know what that is is that a lot is it a
- 1:09:01little All right. I sent you an email with a
- 1:09:08great article. Are we covering it this episode
- 1:09:10or no? About Idaho allowing us to do what we've
- 1:09:15done for 10 ,000 years. It keeps redirecting
- 1:09:18to us, ladies. Idaho opens the kitchen door.
- 1:09:21Yes. But hold on, hold on, because we've got
- 1:09:24this to do. Right. Yeah, I didn't forget. This
- 1:09:30is your fault, Scott. Boy, this is really rough.
- 1:09:39Now you know who's in charge of this podcast.
- 1:09:41You all thought you knew. It's not me. God, that's
- 1:09:45really rough. Okay. Everybody liked to talk about
- 1:09:51death rates for COVID and stuff. So I looked
- 1:09:58it up and it took longer than it should have
- 1:10:00because they really liked to obfuscate the numbers.
- 1:10:08For We're gonna do it as a per capita For 2020
- 1:10:13the year 2020. What do you think is the actual
- 1:10:18death rate? Where kovat was not just a contributing
- 1:10:22factor, but the actual cause of death per the
- 1:10:26CDC Give me the per capita What the or you can
- 1:10:29do a percentage as well if you want what the
- 1:10:31CDC said it was in 2020 per 100 ,000 correct
- 1:10:38200 you would think and I think when it was during
- 1:10:42those times they were doing that but now that
- 1:10:49we're farther removed from this and a lot of
- 1:10:51people have all of a sudden changed their tune
- 1:10:52I think the numbers are a little bit more accurate
- 1:10:5570 out of a hundred thousand yeah okay uh -huh
- 1:11:01Yeah, originally it was I think higher than that.
- 1:11:04Now they say 93 .2 per 100 ,000. However, that's
- 1:11:10combining COVID as like the cause of death and
- 1:11:15COVID being attributable or contributing factor.
- 1:11:19Like in that motorcycle accident, for example.
- 1:11:22Yeah, like when a guy got bit by a shark and
- 1:11:24died in the hospital after he lost a limb, but
- 1:11:26they tested him for COVID, he had it. So they
- 1:11:29listed covid as a contributing factor to his
- 1:11:31death. Sure. Because money, stuff like that.
- 1:11:35So you take that away and it goes down to seventy
- 1:11:37point eight per one hundred thousand. So I thought
- 1:11:39that's interesting. What does that look like
- 1:11:41as a percentage? Point zero zero zero seven zero
- 1:11:48eight percent. Shut it all down. And we shut
- 1:11:53down our lives for that in 2021. What do you
- 1:11:57think of what Scott? It was probably more, I
- 1:12:02would think. So I'm going to sit. I don't know,
- 1:12:04actually, because all the nursing home stuff
- 1:12:05was in 2020. Maybe it was maybe they're saying
- 1:12:07it was less. Let's go. Fifty five. You actually
- 1:12:17should have gone with your gut. It was more in
- 1:12:192021. Yeah, it was 80 per one hundred thousand.
- 1:12:25Sure. Which equals 0 .000878%. If everything
- 1:12:32we do saves just one life, I'll be happy. And
- 1:12:38then in 2022 it's so comically low that it just
- 1:12:42makes you cry to know that we shut our lives
- 1:12:44down for this shit. Some people still did, but
- 1:12:46depending on where they lived, 0 .00004%. Good
- 1:12:52stuff. God, that's really rough. Yeah, pretty
- 1:12:56pretty awesome, huh? For reference I saw then
- 1:13:00I looked up. Okay What are like the top 20 causes
- 1:13:03of death in the in the United States? And it
- 1:13:05gave me a solid top 10 and then and then another
- 1:13:0710 below it that were kind of like and these
- 1:13:09two Heart disease number one is 157 .6 out of
- 1:13:16100 ,000 cancer 139 .4 and then it drops precipitously
- 1:13:21it drops to 53 .3 and that is accidents, unintentional
- 1:13:29injuries. Sure, falling off ladders. Yeah. So
- 1:13:32for a year or two, I guess COVID was number three,
- 1:13:36but we're dealing with super, super massage numbers.
- 1:13:40And do you know what registered zero across the
- 1:13:42board on every metric in that time? Influenza.
- 1:13:46The flu. Where did that go? And influenza. I
- 1:13:49don't know, but I'm glad you mentioned it. You
- 1:13:50know why? Because it is actually 11th on the
- 1:13:54list of the top 20 Yeah, where's on the list
- 1:13:59Scott where cyclosporiasis and explosive diarrhea
- 1:14:02month oh Oh, that was the other part of this.
- 1:14:06Thank you for reminding me. I have this on my
- 1:14:08phone Did you know and actually I'm gonna make
- 1:14:12this as a second part. It's a question Are you
- 1:14:16more likely to die from Gun deaths in the USA,
- 1:14:23heat deaths in Europe, or poop deaths in India.
- 1:14:27Oh, it's gotta be poop deaths in India and it's
- 1:14:29probably not close. To the tune of 40 people
- 1:14:37per 100 ,000 die of diarrhea deaths in India.
- 1:14:42And then it's heat deaths in Europe, 23 and a
- 1:14:45half people. Per 100 ,000 die from heat death
- 1:14:49heat death in Western civilization Europe in
- 1:14:542026 For gun deaths and it's not even gun deaths.
- 1:14:59It's gun homicides So because gun deaths count
- 1:15:03when they do deaths they count suicide which
- 1:15:05is in an inaccurate way to track this sort of
- 1:15:08thing because you know You want to commit suicide
- 1:15:10you're gonna commit suicide. There's a million
- 1:15:11ways to do it guns just happen to be the most
- 1:15:13efficient uh, but gun homicides, it's five and
- 1:15:1995 % of those five per capita happen in probably
- 1:15:25six cities across the country. That's it. About
- 1:15:28six cities probably account for, uh, Oakland,
- 1:15:31Baltimore, Atlanta, Chicago, Chicago, Shirek.
- 1:15:37Yup. Yup. Yeah. Anyways. Yeah. When I saw this
- 1:15:41and that actually is what made me go, you know,
- 1:15:42that's incredible. And then it also led me to
- 1:15:46this, what were the real, now that we're a few
- 1:15:48years apart from it, what were the real numbers
- 1:15:49for COVID? So you were still, you are, you are
- 1:15:54almost as likely to die from, yeah, heat death
- 1:15:57and poop death. Yeah. Anyways, you get the idea.
- 1:16:00Crazy stuff. And all the numbers are baloney
- 1:16:02in the first place because all of the tests,
- 1:16:05the PCR tests were bullshit. This is all based
- 1:16:07on fakery in the first place, as Michael Yeeden
- 1:16:10says. And incentives. And incentives. Exactly.
- 1:16:13What are the incentives? Ok, bono. So I know
- 1:16:16you got to go. Turns out if you have a COVID
- 1:16:18cases, you get COVID bucks. I could spare seven
- 1:16:23more minutes. I got seven more minutes. Yeah,
- 1:16:25right. Turns out if you incentivize something,
- 1:16:27you get more of it. Weird, right? Well, I'm wondering
- 1:16:30if because I have like a couple more really good
- 1:16:32ones that I would love to get to and like we
- 1:16:34could use another 20 minutes on the end of this.
- 1:16:37Do you want to pick it back up like at two when
- 1:16:38you get back? Is that a possibility? All right,
- 1:16:41and it could be earlier than two. I don't know
- 1:16:43how long this zoom thing will go It might be
- 1:16:45an hour. It might be an hour and a half. It might
- 1:16:47be two I doubt it probably be an hour. So I'll
- 1:16:49hit you up. Okay. Sounds good Yeah, I'm just
- 1:16:51gonna work on the first I'll just edit and do
- 1:16:53other stuff and then I just just let me know
- 1:16:54I'll be at my computer Roger that brother. Talk
- 1:16:57to you You're leveraging the power of email primarily
- 1:17:06to sell stuff usually, you know, whatever you
- 1:17:09make or whatever Service you offer or whatnot
- 1:17:11and I I don't really have a business model right
- 1:17:14now that's set up for that but she 100 % does
- 1:17:18and it already has like a quarter of a million
- 1:17:20followers on Facebook and has already got some
- 1:17:23products she's been working on and things like
- 1:17:26herbal remedy Handbooks and anyways a number
- 1:17:29of different things that lend itself pretty much
- 1:17:31100 % perfectly to this model totally Well, you
- 1:17:36know, dude, we should just let's just keep scooting
- 1:17:38right along because that is absolutely the gist
- 1:17:43of what was it? Representative Heather Scott's
- 1:17:47email or not email. Sorry. No, what did he was
- 1:17:49like a post on her on her sub stack about the
- 1:17:53exact model? Yeah, I think it was. Yeah, I think
- 1:17:56it was on her sub stack as well. Email went out.
- 1:17:59I got the email from my dad who who passed it
- 1:18:01along is every now and then he'll actually pretty
- 1:18:03often he'll forward me a lot of this type of.
- 1:18:06I had a whole political stuff and a lot of it
- 1:18:08passes me by pretty quickly and that's fine,
- 1:18:10no big deal. But sometimes it ends up being relevant.
- 1:18:12And this one I thought was interesting. Cause
- 1:18:15on one hand, it was like, yeah, this is actually,
- 1:18:18this is a good thing. Woohoo. Yeah. Finally,
- 1:18:20a little breath of fresh air. The boot, the state
- 1:18:23boot coming off the neck a little bit. That's
- 1:18:26great. And then as soon as I got done thinking
- 1:18:29that I went, wait a minute. We should have had
- 1:18:32the right to do this all along. Oh, they got
- 1:18:35me again. It's like when you get pulled over
- 1:18:37by the cops for whatever, usually speeding or
- 1:18:41whatnot. And, you know, you try to be on your
- 1:18:43best behavior and the cops in a good mood. And,
- 1:18:46you know, you successfully escape the encounter
- 1:18:48with just a warning. And the cop is always so
- 1:18:51magnanimous about it. Oh, you know, that's OK.
- 1:18:53Tell you what. Tell you what. I'm just going
- 1:18:55to let you off with a warning or sometimes if
- 1:18:57they do ticket you and they're like, but you
- 1:18:58were, you know, polite or compliant and they're
- 1:19:01like, well, normally this would be $150 ticket
- 1:19:05because you were going 15 over, but I'll tell
- 1:19:07you what, we'll knock it down to 90, just like
- 1:19:09you were going, you know, like 10 over and you
- 1:19:11drive away and you're like, man, that was great.
- 1:19:13What a nice guy. Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
- 1:19:16Like this never should have happened to begin
- 1:19:19with. We never should have had this interaction
- 1:19:20to begin with. It's like, You know, you're busy
- 1:19:23kissing the ring. Oh, thank you. Thank you so
- 1:19:26much. Wait. Ah, shit. It shouldn't have even
- 1:19:29happened. So that's where I find myself with
- 1:19:32this particular news item. He's already pulled
- 1:19:35over. The title of the sub stack post is Idaho
- 1:19:39opens the kitchen door. New opportunities for
- 1:19:41families, farmers and entrepreneurs from Representative
- 1:19:44Heather Scott. It's like, woo. is the upshot
- 1:19:47is Idahoans can now produce and sell baked goods,
- 1:19:50jams and jellies, pickles and fermented foods,
- 1:19:52sauces and condiments, soup mixes, candy, granola,
- 1:19:54honey, dried and dehydrated foods, freeze -dried
- 1:19:56foods, basically blah blah blah, and certain
- 1:19:59non -alcoholic beverages and more directly to
- 1:20:01consumers, exclamation mark. The idea behind
- 1:20:04the law is simple. Idahoans should have greater
- 1:20:06freedom to produce food, be entrepreneurial,
- 1:20:08and choose who they buy their food from. So it's
- 1:20:11like, yeah, that's great. You can apothecary
- 1:20:13Mary can sell her wares to the people who wish
- 1:20:16to buy them of their own volition. And like,
- 1:20:18wait, wait, wait a minute. The thing we've been
- 1:20:21doing for 10 ,000 years of human history. OK,
- 1:20:25then that was always allowed. OK, good times.
- 1:20:32Oh, thank you, government. Thank you so much
- 1:20:35for giving us a right that we had for giving
- 1:20:38it back to us. Thank you so much. How fucked
- 1:20:43up is that? Toward the end of representative
- 1:20:46Scott says government doesn't always have to
- 1:20:48respond to an issue by creating another license
- 1:20:50fee permit or bureaucracy. Sometimes the answer
- 1:20:53is to remove unnecessary barriers and give responsible
- 1:20:57people room to create sometimes. Sometimes here,
- 1:21:00here, sometimes better than zero. I mean, you
- 1:21:03got to credit where credit's due, but sometimes
- 1:21:05most of the time it isn't. Yeah. It's sort of
- 1:21:08like a Randy Westlin and Post Falls saying, yeah,
- 1:21:11we, we don't need a hundred police officers like
- 1:21:15Coeur d 'Alene has. We only need 80. Okay. I
- 1:21:20guess that's better. Question mark. And then
- 1:21:24I do like how representative Scott signs her
- 1:21:26email or I'm sorry, her subset post. in liberty
- 1:21:29representative heather scott hooray question
- 1:21:34mark well gotta take the wins where you can i
- 1:21:38suppose so good times i guess so even though
- 1:21:40the wins were wins that we had had all along
- 1:21:43and then somewhere so you know what this means
- 1:21:47to continue breaking this particular narrative
- 1:21:50down and heather scott's actually one of my favorites
- 1:21:52that's saying something she's one of my favorites
- 1:21:54in the state legislature she's She is about as
- 1:21:58close to a true conservative, Idaho conservative
- 1:22:01as you can get, and even dabbles in the pool
- 1:22:04of libertarianism from time to time, which is
- 1:22:06why the MSM hates her, the establishment definitely
- 1:22:08hates her, the quote unquote common sense Republicans
- 1:22:12hate her. So that tells you everything you need
- 1:22:13to know. She's one of the better ones. But as
- 1:22:16you sit and you simmer on this, you think to
- 1:22:20yourself, this means that somewhere along the
- 1:22:23line, it became illegal. to do this stuff. So
- 1:22:29for 10 ,000 years of human history or however
- 1:22:31long we've been around as a species, I think
- 1:22:33it's probably about that long, but whatever.
- 1:22:35I'm not gonna get into that debate. 2000 years,
- 1:22:3710 ,000 years, whatever. We've been doing this
- 1:22:40as a species. Then somewhere, somehow in like
- 1:22:44the probably 1980s, 1990s, it became illegal.
- 1:22:50And now in 2026, they're rolling a little bit
- 1:22:53of a back and... Here you go, citizen. Good news,
- 1:22:55citizen. Here are some rights back. Your adorable
- 1:22:58cottage industry that you do out of your house
- 1:23:00and that you sell stuff to your neighbors, eh,
- 1:23:04we'll let you have it. It's allowed. Now, be
- 1:23:08careful, though, as a consumer of goods from
- 1:23:11someone like Apothecary Mary, you know, if they're
- 1:23:14not engaging in, let's say, pasteurization and
- 1:23:18giving you raw milk. Raw milk? Think of it as
- 1:23:21raw sewage. Well, they're very one of the things
- 1:23:24to you got to watch out for non -alcoholic Don't
- 1:23:27you dare even think about anything alcoholic
- 1:23:29or they will kick down your door with that with
- 1:23:32that boot Put it right back on your neck To the
- 1:23:35raw milk thing. I did actually see at the bottom
- 1:23:38of the email that I sent you it does include
- 1:23:41raw milk things you can sell with restrictions
- 1:23:44it says dairy and Milk and raw milk are subject
- 1:23:48to so never mind. I'm wrong. You can't is under
- 1:23:52the important note sections. Dairy and raw milk.
- 1:23:54Dairy and raw milk are subject to separate state
- 1:23:56laws. This includes milk, cheese, yogurt, butter,
- 1:23:58and more. Check requirements before you produce
- 1:24:00or sell. Well, you know why, right? You know
- 1:24:03why? It's heavily fecal contaminated. Think about,
- 1:24:06you know, where the cows, you know, their feces
- 1:24:09are. So there's no way we can... Out of their
- 1:24:11tits, obviously. alcohol part, it made me think
- 1:24:18about Alvin Holmes from Alabama, from the 2010
- 1:24:22debate about legalizing home brewing, and Alvin
- 1:24:25is very, very pro -government regulating alcohol.
- 1:24:32What would we do without such an agency? You
- 1:24:38gotta be scientifically trained for that. So
- 1:24:41you gotta be scientifically trained to sell moonshine.
- 1:24:46So good that we have them looking out for us
- 1:24:48Don't you think Scott because without them society
- 1:24:51would collapse and it would be anarchy Anarchy
- 1:24:54the late great Alvin Holmes one of the deceased
- 1:24:58burrito supreme leaders of the state of Alabama
- 1:25:01Rest in peace he had consumed more Sheva's regal.
- 1:25:05He probably would be alive today because that
- 1:25:08stuff was safe How you gonna make it in your
- 1:25:12home if you don't have the facility to make sure
- 1:25:15it's healthy? How? How? How can you do that?
- 1:25:22Just like how many licks it takes to get to the
- 1:25:24center of a Tootsie Pop, Scott? Unanswerable
- 1:25:25questions. The world will never know. Here is
- 1:25:29some cool news for Paul and I are both poker
- 1:25:32players We of course only play poker outside
- 1:25:35of the state of Idaho on account of you know
- 1:25:37We're not allowed to do that But we do enjoy
- 1:25:39the game and there was some huge news from the
- 1:25:42World Series of poker that just took place in
- 1:25:44Las Vegas What an incredible moment for Lucas
- 1:25:56Jumalon. The 22 -year -old Spokane native wins
- 1:25:59the World Series of Pokermade event tonight with
- 1:26:02$10 million as the purse. Not too shabby. He's
- 1:26:06now got the third most winnings of any Washington
- 1:26:09native. That's all time, by the way. And he did
- 1:26:11it in just three months after graduating college.
- 1:26:14Jumalon is the only Washington State native to
- 1:26:16ever win the World Series of Pokermade event.
- 1:26:19A tournament started all the way back in 1970.
- 1:26:23I tell you what, if you look back at the pictures
- 1:26:25of all the folks who have won it back then, you
- 1:26:27can see some excellent mustaches. So congratulations
- 1:26:31to him. But wait, that's what they're talking
- 1:26:33about. Yeah, I guess so. Let's check out Amarillo
- 1:26:37Slim's handlebar. Boy, you ever seen a guy with
- 1:26:39a handlebar mustache and a cowboy hat? It's really
- 1:26:41quite something to behold. I bet he drinks raw
- 1:26:45milk. Did you catch this part? Ten million dollars
- 1:26:48as the purse, not to share. Ten million dollars
- 1:26:51as the purse. What is your understanding of what
- 1:26:54a purse is? Usually for a fight or for the racetrack
- 1:26:59or something that you mug off a woman. Well,
- 1:27:06yeah, that's Paul Michael Banducci snatched a
- 1:27:09purse from an old lady. First off, I do have
- 1:27:13a reputation to maintain. Secondly, none of my
- 1:27:15crimes have been violent. Thank you, sir. All
- 1:27:18of my crimes have been against the state. I am,
- 1:27:20as you would say, an enemy of the state. No victims
- 1:27:22other than the state. And the state cannot be
- 1:27:25a victim. The state. Because they are the perpetrator.
- 1:27:28My understanding of what a purse is, is the total
- 1:27:31amount of money. Like, how much is in the purse?
- 1:27:35Like, it's $100 million. Well, Mike Tyson gets
- 1:27:37$20 million, and that's... Like, the purse is
- 1:27:40the total amount. Is that wrong? No, that is
- 1:27:45what it is. Don't know. I don't I don't I don't
- 1:27:48think it's wrong enough to argue over there.
- 1:27:50You got one and really arguing what yeah, what
- 1:27:53fun is that? Sorry Should we end the podcast
- 1:27:59here? Let's Now forget it. I'm not even, it's
- 1:28:01not, I know what it is. It's the total prize
- 1:28:03pool. That's what the purse is. So this is not
- 1:28:05right. The, the $10 million is not the purse
- 1:28:08of the main event. The main event's purse was
- 1:28:1190, 91 million. It was like the total amount
- 1:28:14of money that was going to be paid out. $10 million
- 1:28:16was the first prize. Yeah. Yeah. So 10 million
- 1:28:20for first. Um, and then, you know, good goes
- 1:28:22down from their second mill, second got a, you
- 1:28:25know, 6 million the way you pay out poker tournaments,
- 1:28:27a super top heavy for the main event. But yeah,
- 1:28:29$10 million was just the first prize payout,
- 1:28:32not the purse. Yeah, but the pay jumps get huge
- 1:28:36for the top for the basically if you make the
- 1:28:38top nine, you're a millionaire. Yeah, the final
- 1:28:41table. Yeah. But what they don't say. So if you
- 1:28:44know, if you basically, you know, if you know,
- 1:28:45you know, the main event attracts. Well, recently
- 1:28:48it's attracted close to 10 ,000 participants.
- 1:28:51It's a freeze out. So you're a one and done.
- 1:28:52It's a $10 ,000 buy in. If you bust out, you're
- 1:28:55done. A lot of the you can rebuy. multiple times,
- 1:28:58sometimes unlimited times. This one's a freezeout.
- 1:29:00You buy in once, you bust out, you're done. It
- 1:29:03has historically over the last week, three, four,
- 1:29:05five years, Scott, it's been in between nine
- 1:29:07and 10 ,000 participants. That's a lot. I mean,
- 1:29:10it's huge. They take it. They have to take it
- 1:29:12in like what? Six days for the first round. It
- 1:29:16was like six different flights for rounds one.
- 1:29:19You know, you got round one A through like round
- 1:29:21one F. This is that many people. Yeah, you can
- 1:29:25only fit so. But only the top 10 percent. Get
- 1:29:27paid. Yep, making the money in the main event
- 1:29:31is a life goal for sure. So anyway, congrats
- 1:29:34to credit to credit to Julemon, man. That's OK.
- 1:29:37The question is, do you think we will see him
- 1:29:41in the quest poker room ever? Unlikely, they
- 1:29:47they usually, you know, now they're now they're
- 1:29:50poker royalty and they're playing nosebleeds.
- 1:29:52That's not always true, but it is often true.
- 1:29:56Yeah. It would be kind of cool. It would be.
- 1:29:58Have it be a plunk down to the two five table.
- 1:30:00Actually, I'm not sure if I'd want that, though,
- 1:30:02because then it means nothing to him. It'll mean
- 1:30:05a lot to us. You're like, I bet five hundred
- 1:30:09dollars. And he goes, oh, so like five pennies.
- 1:30:12OK, I have nine high call like I have seven.
- 1:30:16I have a busted straight draw. How did you call
- 1:30:17me with nine high? Is that four seven of diamonds
- 1:30:21that got us again? Scott got them. It was suited.
- 1:30:24It was suited. some poker humor but I had like
- 1:30:27the fifth nut flush draw here is we got a couple
- 1:30:32more for this week here is a pre -roll that NPR
- 1:30:38is running on all of the programming. So when
- 1:30:42you go and you like the ISP shortage clips and
- 1:30:44anything else you're pulling, this is what you
- 1:30:46hear before the clips start. Which speaking of
- 1:30:51the World Series of Poker, doesn't that sound
- 1:30:52like mid -2000s ESPN World Series of Poker coverage?
- 1:30:56That is exactly what just went through my brain.
- 1:30:59I didn't even mean to do that, but that ties
- 1:31:01in nicely. Do you have questions about extremist
- 1:31:08movements? Join me on August 13th from 6 to 7
- 1:31:12.30 p .m. at Boise State's Osher Institute for
- 1:31:16an Ask Me Anything About Extremism in Idaho and
- 1:31:19across America. This event supports season three
- 1:31:22of Extremely American with a suggested donation
- 1:31:24of $10. You'll get your questions answered while
- 1:31:27directly supporting this vital reporting. Hope
- 1:31:30to see you there. We did the studio fade out.
- 1:31:39Do you think - If I don't have him to tell me
- 1:31:41who's an extremist in Idaho, then I don't know
- 1:31:44what we're gonna do. You never, it's buzzwords,
- 1:31:49right? Code words, red flags, the things people
- 1:31:51do, things people say, terms they use. And almost,
- 1:31:55almost always when the term extremism is used,
- 1:31:58I automatically know the issuer, the utterer
- 1:32:01of that term is gonna be a leftist. The way leftists
- 1:32:06frame their whole world is that anything to the
- 1:32:08quote unquote right of them is extremism. They're
- 1:32:12normal. See, they're normal. We live in a time
- 1:32:15when noticing things is far right. Extreme! That
- 1:32:22ought to be fun. I'm still waiting for Mountain
- 1:32:24Dew to make a flavor for us. Wouldn't that be
- 1:32:26awesome? Mountain Dew, far right. Extreme far
- 1:32:29right edition. What do you think code red? What
- 1:32:32do you think that was? Ah, shit, you're right.
- 1:32:34They've done it already. Code deep, extreme red.
- 1:32:39See, when they came out with that, though, it
- 1:32:41was 2007. I was in the middle of college and
- 1:32:45fully immersed in Call of Duty Modern Warfare,
- 1:32:47and I did not connect the dots for extreme code
- 1:32:50red Mountain Dew. Too busy playing the video
- 1:32:53game? I was too busy pwnin' noobs. That's right.
- 1:32:59So that ought to be fun. I'll see if there's
- 1:33:01a... recording of what should be a very entertaining
- 1:33:04question and answer with uh, what was his name?
- 1:33:07Post of the extreme weight there. I'm Heath Druzen.
- 1:33:10Heath Druzen. Okay. That ought to be entertaining.
- 1:33:14And one final one this week, kind of alluded
- 1:33:17to it at the top. The mainstream has pivoted
- 1:33:20into guns bad. The three armed people who took
- 1:33:24on an active shooter in Twin Falls on August
- 1:33:261st have been hailed heroes. In particular, a
- 1:33:29man identified as Jordan Salinas seen in now
- 1:33:32viral video shooting back at the suspect. And
- 1:33:35now like it or not, we have a reputation for
- 1:33:38Idaho shoots back. That's a motto on merchandise
- 1:33:41that quickly found its way online. I talked with
- 1:33:44police and gun experts about their reaction to
- 1:33:48the experts in a story that's new this morning.
- 1:33:51What do you think the experts opinions are going
- 1:33:53to be? What do you think the odds are any of
- 1:33:56the experts have ever handled a gun? What's happening?
- 1:34:02What's happening? What happened? The officers
- 1:34:07responding to the in -and -out shooting said
- 1:34:09it loud and clear. Good Samaritans with guns
- 1:34:12made a difference. We believe their actions helped
- 1:34:14drive the suspect away from the scene, preventing
- 1:34:16further casualties. Can I ask why do they continuously
- 1:34:20refer to this person as the suspect? You heard
- 1:34:23the anchor do it at the top. You were hearing
- 1:34:26a police sheriff, whatever, spokesperson, guy
- 1:34:30in a badge at a podium. What do you mean the
- 1:34:33suspect? You suspect him? Isn't it just the perpetrator?
- 1:34:39I don't understand the continued use of it. Allegedly.
- 1:34:42Yeah, the alleged suspect. The alleged suspect
- 1:34:45may, who may or may not have been there shooting
- 1:34:50up the in and out. We got him. You're you're
- 1:34:53innocent till proven guilty. We believe their
- 1:34:54actions helped drive the suspect away from the
- 1:34:56scene preventing further casualties. 35 year
- 1:34:58old Jordan Salinas is now famous. His outline
- 1:35:01is on stickers and t -shirts that say Idaho shoots
- 1:35:05back. Salinas says he just wanted to help. You
- 1:35:08know what's funny too about I don't know if you've
- 1:35:10noticed that the silhouette that has been being
- 1:35:12it's all over the ultra net. The silhouette is
- 1:35:16based on an AI enhancement of a the footage of
- 1:35:21Salinas shooting that pistol, the suppressed
- 1:35:23pistol. Yeah. And the A .I. sort of made his
- 1:35:27it misread his baseball cap and ponytail as a
- 1:35:30cowboy hat. Yeah. So the the silhouette is him
- 1:35:34in a cowboy hat, even though he wears not only
- 1:35:37not only is it a baseball cap with the extreme
- 1:35:40curved bill, the bill itself has notches in it
- 1:35:44for his sunglasses. Yep. So that's cool. The
- 1:35:50world is fake Lena says he just wanted to help
- 1:35:52my goal was To try to kill that motherfucker
- 1:35:56help as many people get home. Oh, it's possible
- 1:35:59Salinas told the Idaho statesman He trained to
- 1:36:01take on an active shooter ever since the deadly
- 1:36:04Boise town square mall shooting in 2022 We don't
- 1:36:07know his regimen but Boise police tell me some
- 1:36:10of their officers train every other week with
- 1:36:13virtual reality We asked him if he'd take a shooting
- 1:36:15and he said no So we don't know his regimen.
- 1:36:20With virtual reality or other use of force training
- 1:36:23to be prepared. And always be thinking what if.
- 1:36:26And certified firearms instructor Matt Osborne
- 1:36:28says that kind of dedicated training is truly
- 1:36:31what it takes to handle the stress of what is
- 1:36:34essentially combat. Do 50 pushups. So the rest
- 1:36:37of you plebes don't even bother to carry because
- 1:36:39unless you train as hard as this guy, don't even
- 1:36:43bother. That's what's going on here, by the way.
- 1:36:45I'm just breaking this down as we go. That is
- 1:36:47the inference or the implication. That is what
- 1:36:50they are implying with the way they're framing
- 1:36:53this right now. So this guy had lots of training.
- 1:36:56You, however, don't. So you don't belong doing
- 1:37:00this. The rest of you, get lost. Do 50 push -ups
- 1:37:05and then get up and try to engage and see how
- 1:37:09just that Adrenaline just that heart rate. I'll
- 1:37:12speak personally. I'm a great shot when I'm calm
- 1:37:15and relaxed 50 push -ups I've got to take a break
- 1:37:18or otherwise my muscles going all over the place
- 1:37:21Police say training to hit a target is one thing
- 1:37:25but that doesn't include what's known as the
- 1:37:27backdrop one of the things that a lot of times
- 1:37:29people don't take into consideration is what's
- 1:37:32behind the individual. they're firing at, and
- 1:37:36that's something that we train extensively on,
- 1:37:38is knowing what we call it the backdrop is. One
- 1:37:41backdrop can include an innocent bystander. Another
- 1:37:44complication is the confusion a Good Samaritan
- 1:37:47with a gun can cause for officers. My concern
- 1:37:50with citizens getting involved is when police
- 1:37:52respond, we don't know who's who. It's always
- 1:37:54a sticky situation. Law enforcement has such
- 1:37:57a tough job when they arrive on scene, probably
- 1:37:59all they know is shots fired, shots fired, shots
- 1:38:02fired. Jack Johnson told Idaho News 6, in this
- 1:38:06case, all three people who were armed had their
- 1:38:08guns down when officers arrived on scene. But
- 1:38:11mistakes have happened before, like in 2024 during
- 1:38:14a prison escape attempt at St. Alphonsus in Boise.
- 1:38:17He's got the gun in his hand. He's got the gun
- 1:38:18in his hand. During that incident, a Boise police
- 1:38:22officer accidentally opened fire on an IDOC officer
- 1:38:25thinking he was the shooter. When it comes to
- 1:38:28the in -and -out shooting, Chief Domney says
- 1:38:30a citizen shooter is problematic. Not at all
- 1:38:33saying he did anything wrong by any means, but
- 1:38:37it is a concern of ours. So how often do... Wait
- 1:38:39a minute. So the news report says this guy says
- 1:38:44it's problematic. And then what did he actually
- 1:38:46say? Not at all saying he did anything wrong
- 1:38:49by any means, but it is a concern of ours. He
- 1:38:52didn't do anything wrong, but it's a concern.
- 1:38:54I don't know. Does that is that's problematic?
- 1:38:57Is that a fair translation? I just like the way
- 1:38:59the way they're selling it is like what you don't
- 1:39:01know about these situations could get you killed
- 1:39:04by a cop. Yep. Which is actually kind of true.
- 1:39:08I mean, ironically, it's absolutely true. I mean,
- 1:39:10you're talking about a group of people who kill
- 1:39:13people over having pagers in their hands, cell
- 1:39:16phones in their hands, groceries in their hands.
- 1:39:19I mean, just go find the Internet. It's an amazing
- 1:39:21tool. And watch a garrillion videos of cops blasting
- 1:39:25people because they had anything in their hands.
- 1:39:28He's got a gun. There's one of my recent favorites
- 1:39:30is a guy, an officer who unloaded on a citizen,
- 1:39:35a civilian. During I think it was a traffic stop
- 1:39:39because an acorn fell out of a tree Hit the officer's
- 1:39:43trunk of his car made a popping sound and the
- 1:39:45guy pulled his firearm and started shooting the
- 1:39:48cop did Stuff you can't make a huge mistake So
- 1:39:52so unironically or ironically they're not wrong
- 1:39:56on this because yeah if you step in and help
- 1:39:58as a good Samaritan you're actually liable to
- 1:40:00get popped by the cops yourself, but Stepping
- 1:40:03back and looking at this whole Segment that they're
- 1:40:07doing here This is very it's very well done.
- 1:40:10It's very well crafted, but it's hot garbage
- 1:40:13It's basically like yeah, so you can be you can
- 1:40:16be helpful. It's good to carry a firearm for
- 1:40:19these sorts of situations But you actually shouldn't
- 1:40:21because you could kill someone or they could
- 1:40:23kill you Don't do it There's about 40 more seconds.
- 1:40:29So how often do citizens involve themselves in
- 1:40:31active shooter cases? According to the Alert
- 1:40:33Center at Texas State University, which looked
- 1:40:36at 433 active shooter cases from 2000 to 2021,
- 1:40:40only 64 were stopped by a bystander, and most
- 1:40:44of them were unarmed. Only 12, in fact, were
- 1:40:47stopped by a bystander with a gun. For Osborne,
- 1:40:50the answer for what to do in a similar situation
- 1:40:53is easy. Avoid at all costs, evade to get away
- 1:40:57if you can, and only if it is your last resort
- 1:41:00to protect yourself, your loved ones, or innocent
- 1:41:03bystanders, then you engage. Police have released
- 1:41:07security camera video of the actual shooting
- 1:41:10which showed an off -duty officer and a former
- 1:41:13law enforcement officer who also engaged the
- 1:41:16shooter but perhaps most amazing of all was the
- 1:41:19unarmed employee outside the visitor center who
- 1:41:22put his life at risk distracting the shooter
- 1:41:25and allowing others to escape. So that was the
- 1:41:28most amazing of all and this is what the firearms
- 1:41:31expert that they featured in the story, this
- 1:41:34is what he thinks. Avoid at all costs. At all
- 1:41:38costs. Avoid at all costs. So no matter what
- 1:41:41the cost. Flee! Runaway! No matter the cost.
- 1:41:46But what if they're going to... What if the guy
- 1:41:49actually just walks in the front door of that
- 1:41:51In -N -Out and just unloads his magazine into
- 1:41:54the... into the 80 people that are in there.
- 1:41:56Doesn't matter. I said at all costs. We gotta
- 1:41:58run away even harder. At all costs. You flee.
- 1:42:01Human shield. Well, then what you do is you grab
- 1:42:03the nearest small child and you use it as a human
- 1:42:06shield as you flee. Well, yeah, because the costs
- 1:42:09don't matter at all costs. Costs don't matter.
- 1:42:11All costs. OK, that's that's the mainstream.
- 1:42:15They've see that's what because they were they
- 1:42:18normally wouldn't even touch the part where a
- 1:42:21civilian with a firearm did anything other than
- 1:42:23a bad thing. so but they had to in the beginning
- 1:42:26and now that a week has passed they've pivoted
- 1:42:29to still bad seems good still bad also not mentioned
- 1:42:34because they would say it's not relevant because
- 1:42:37apples to apples but this is really important
- 1:42:39so what they did was they looked at active shooter
- 1:42:41situations and those numbers might be right but
- 1:42:44what they failed to mention is the thousands
- 1:42:48thousands of incidents each year that are either
- 1:42:52stopped dead in their tracks or in the middle
- 1:42:55of what's going on or prevent it altogether by
- 1:42:58people carrying firearms, muggings, robberies,
- 1:43:01B &Es, breaking and enterings, kidnappings. Those
- 1:43:05are thousands of incidents that could be way
- 1:43:08worse than they are or actually stop before they
- 1:43:11start because people carry firearms. Lots and
- 1:43:14lots and lots of that. So that's not a not a
- 1:43:17measurable stat or they or if it is that's not
- 1:43:20it is a measurable stat because police reports
- 1:43:22We still get called on those a lot of the time.
- 1:43:24So it is a measurable status What actually is
- 1:43:27it's it's underrepresented because we don't know
- 1:43:30how many of those incidents happen and the police
- 1:43:32don't get called Out of 18 billion incidents
- 1:43:37only four were stopped by civilians and those
- 1:43:39people weren't even armed Yeah, of this very,
- 1:43:44very, very particular subset of data that we
- 1:43:47looked at, a small percentage of it was affected
- 1:43:50by somebody with a gun, not paying attention
- 1:43:53to this huge, huge, huge subset of data where
- 1:43:57stuff is stopped by a good person with a gun.
- 1:43:59So just nevermind, never you mind, citizen, flee.
- 1:44:04Don't carry a weapon. It's a bad idea. At all
- 1:44:06costs. Thank you, mainstream media. Only the
- 1:44:11state should possess firearms. None of you filthy
- 1:44:14plebes, you raw milk drinking filthy plebes should
- 1:44:17have so much as a musket were Idaho News 6. For
- 1:44:24the record, these people are not anti -gun. They
- 1:44:27are pro -gun. They're just pro the most dangerous
- 1:44:31gang on planet Earth known as the government
- 1:44:33having the guns. The state. Exclusively. Exclusively.
- 1:44:39Yep. Yeah. God, that's really rough. And psychopathic.
- 1:44:47Okay. Episode 41 of No ID in the Camp. Yeah,
- 1:44:52lots of deconstruction. Lots of the same stuff
- 1:44:56in slightly different words. And that's just
- 1:44:59the nature of media, I guess. I don't know. I
- 1:45:04hope it stays entertaining. Sometimes I'm like,
- 1:45:06well, I don't know. This is the same stuff week
- 1:45:08after week. But then I look around at all the
- 1:45:11other products out there and like everyone is
- 1:45:13doing the same stuff week after week, regardless
- 1:45:14of the format. Yeah, but the stories are fresh
- 1:45:19and there's lots of shades, shades of shit to
- 1:45:23sift through. Wow. Say that three times fast.
- 1:45:26So speaking of shades of shit to shifts through
- 1:45:29the current show title run runners are a statist
- 1:45:33tortilla and spider -man reporter you got a vote
- 1:45:38Statist tortilla, but it's got to be shitty status
- 1:45:42tortilla. You got you want me to throw the shitty
- 1:45:44in there? Okay, that's tricks because that makes
- 1:45:48it. Okay, remember You know how like you'd see,
- 1:45:52you know some of the old the old Well, someone
- 1:45:55would see the Virgin Guadalupe in a tortilla.
- 1:45:57Remember that whole thing? We have to do like,
- 1:46:00you know, like a governor pervert, like in a
- 1:46:02tortilla or something like that. I'll give you
- 1:46:05a million bucks for it and then donate it to
- 1:46:08the homeless shelters in Boise. I see the Virgin
- 1:46:11Mary. OK, until next week, which I'm sure I'm
- 1:46:15no longer homeless. Please remember us at no
- 1:46:18ID show dot com value for values, the model.
- 1:46:21And until then, from Post Falls, I'm Scott. And
- 1:46:25I'm Paul, taxation is theft. Gosh, that's rough.
